The policy of the new President with regard
to The Southern States has been foreshadowed
BY Senator Morton, who 10 speech 10 response
to serenade last Saturday night. said:
Il am not authorized to speak for the Presi
dent elect. but [ venture to say that in pur-
suing just aud conciliatory policy. it must
proceed on basis Of an enforcement Of the
Thirteenth, Fourteenth aud Fifteenth Amend
ments to the Constitution of the United States.
1t must proceed upon the basis Of granting pro
lection to life and liberty and to the political
rights of all classes, without regard to color or
politics. There can be no promise, no peace,
which is not based on the political and civil
rights of all classes of men. When there shall
be such protection to lie aud liberty then there
will be peace and tranquility, but not before. l
have no doubt from his utteranoes and lofty
character that he will do the South full aud
ample justice and endeavor as far as possible to
obliterate the past and blot out the hatred en-.
geodered by war, and that every step in tina,
direction will be for peace, security and protec-
ton of all.

ashore at the same place. No further
trace of the vessel and crew has been discovered.
The wreck Of the Washington is covered with
fifteen feet Of water. At Cape Race, twenty
TWO bodies have been recovered aud buried. 1t
seems probable that on striking the rock tn
boilers exploded, as tho bodies picked up are
dshgurcd, mutilated, and denude Of clothing,
with 10 dislingushable appearance on the
heads. Brains gone and scaps much torn.

The conservative Congressional delegation
from Louisiana informed Gov. Nichols, on
Saturday, that President Grant had cancelled
all orders for the preservation of the status quo
in that State and that the people there were free
TO do wha: they pleased, and that if they should
take possession Of the Offices there without mob
violence they would meet with no opposition
from the military, but yesterday fisherman
said that Gen. Augur should remain 10 New
Orleans for the purpose of preventing any hos

SATURDAY EVENING, MARCH s..

A SCENE NOT IN THE RECoRD-On Las,
Friday morning-ever memorable 10 the an
nails Of this Republic-while the electoral count
was 10 progress 10 Congress, the Senate, few
minutes after receiving the objections 10 the
vote OF Downs, as elector from Wisconsin, and
before it was possible TO have read the evidence.
and before the house had even begun to read
it,returoed message saying they had overruled
the objection aud decided that the vote should
be counted. Upon the announcement 10 the
House of this decision 10 such hot hste by the
Senate, some members from the republican
side clapped very loudly upon the supposed
6uality of the result. This produced much ex-
eitemeut, in the midst of which MIR. Tucker,
of Virginia, turned upon the republican side OF
the House and said II wish it to be uuder'
stood that, though gentlemen on the other side
may succeed in achieving gigantic fraud
upon the rights of the people, We on this side
will resent, in manner which will be remem'
bered, any attempt to crow over 80 Disgrace
iul oonsummation. The disturbers OF the
order Of these proceedings are not 10 the gal
lery, but are those on the floor, who glory in
the triumph of fraud" The noise was 50
great that these remarks we're not reported,
but many republicans came over to MIR. Tucker,
apologized for what they admitted was an In
decent manifestation, and hoped the democrat
10 side would not think anything of it. Mr..
Tucker said be was disposed to be very con
siderate of others. but could not submit to this
exhibition of triumph without the rebuke i,
deserved. The applause was not repeated, land
when the 6na announcement was made the
President of the SeDate asked that it should
be received without any manifestation Of feel
Jog, and the quiet With which Hayes and
Wheeler were proclaimed President and Vice
President of the Uoited States was funereal.
Some democrats left their seats during the last
scene 10 this sad drama, and when it closed Mr..
Tucker moved the adjournment, saying, latter
su,h scene the House could not proceed 60

| the advance OF Jour millions or people from

upon an equal footing with their former mas
ters, could not occur without presenting pro
blcms of the gravcst moment, to be dealt With
by the emancipated race. by their former mas

author Of the act of emat CT patton. That it was
wise, just and provdcntlal act, fraught with
good for all concerned, is now generally con-
ceded throughout the country. That moral
obligation rests upon the national government
to employ its constitutional power and iuhu
euce to establish the rights of the people it has
emaucipated, ADD to protect them 10 the en-
joyment of those rights when they are infringed
or aSsalled, is also generally admitted.
The evils which ath ct the Southern States

aud harmonious efforts of both races aotuated

And while in duty bound and fully determined
