GOVERNOR RcE's MESSAGE TO THE LEGIsLA.
TURE


GOVERNOR RIcE's MESSAGE TO THE LEG1sLA-
TURE.
Boston, January Ex-Governor Rice, in
his message to the Legislature, says: In
the payment of the debt created to save the
war, Massachusetts desires that the prom
ises which have formed the basis Of the
public credit shall be honestly and unde-
viatingly fulfilled. No sophistry in reason
ing, and no casuistry in morals, should be
allowed to obscure the plain demands Of
honest dealing with the public creditors,
either as to TIME or character of the pay
ment OF their dues. Not only should the
public debts be paid and the currency
restored to its normal standard according
to promise made, but every honest effort is
demanded for restoring the peace Of the
country az the surest way Of reyiving its
prosperity and securing the happiness Of
its people. The war has settled the old
causes Of difference, and they cannot be re-
newad il any section were SO designed.
The country has declared with great una
nimity for the return OF peace and the re-
storation OF intercourse and good feeling
between the sections that were alien
ated by slavery and the war. 1t is the duty
of the North to adhere to pacific policy on
the basis of the constitutional amendments,
and the great body Of the people in the South
have manifested the purpose to accept these
amendments as unalterable conditions. 1t
must needs be, perhaps, that occasional con-
flicts will arise out Of political ambition and
partisan zeal; but If they do they must be
dealt with by wise and ingenious statesmen
ship as difficulties inseparable from free
Government extending over continental
domain. There must be stedfast adhe-
renee to sound principles Of Government
with great tolerance as to choice Of methods
OF administration.
The right OF local self .government in the
States respectively in time OF peace, SO it be
republican in form, is practically undis-
puted. The latter cannot be said to be
granted while State is menaced by mill
tary force within its own borders and not
under It's own authority, and peace and fell
iowship cannot be said to be. accomplished
without those signs of recognition which
demonstrate that the paciticatton is genuine
and worthy to be trusted. II any section
of the country is false to its professions on
this subject, the sooner that fact is made
manifest the less dangerous will be its
power for evil, and the easier will be
the remedy for the mischief it may have
already accomplished. Massachusetts will
also heartily support all practicable and Just
means to correct any evils in the civil SER
vice OF the country, and is in full, accord
with the honest purpose Of the President to
render practical what has been so eloquently
declared in convention by speech and reso-
luton. Public sentiment in this country
will sustain the appointment Of competent
and trustworthy persons to the civil service,
and the removal Of those who are not or who
abuse their places for uniustiiable ends.
