"The Constitution As It Is—The Union As It Was." ! A.\ AMNESTY RECOMMENDED AS A WAR AND FINANCIAL MEASURE. I At the celebration of WASHINGTON'S Birtli ! day nt Louisville, lion. JAMES GUTHRIE spoke as follows: FKM.O\V CITIZI:XS:— You liave just heard the Farewell Address of WASHINGTON. This day it has been read in all the cities and towns of the loyal States, and, we hope, in most of the families of the country. It is the advice of the wisest purest and, therefore, the greatest man recorded on the pages of history; the General who led our armies through the seven long years of our revolutionary struggle; the presiding of ficer over the deliberation of the patriots and sages of the Revolution, whilst they were form ing the Constitution and Union under which wcl have lived so prosperously: the Executive, eho-j sen by the voice of a free people to put the new! Government in force, and who presided over its destiny for eight years. In this Farewell Address, many lessons of wisdom arc given for our future consideration and action; and many of the dangers and haz ards of the new Government are pointed out, and we are most earnestly besought to avoit them. Prominent amongst them are party spirit and the indulgence of sectional feelings and tin inculcation of sectional principles. This day when we see more than a million of anno citizens in hostile array against each other, mil drenching the land in blood, and destroying cities, towns and farms in wasting war, we cannot hide from ourselves that the lesson! of wisdom given to us by WASHINGTON have been forgot ten or set at naught,* that this has, to some ex tent, grown from sectional principles and an attempt to set aside the Constitution as to cer tain provisions by one section, and the wanton acts of ambitious men in the other. Now that citizen is armed against citizen, brother against brother, father against son and son against father, we can fully appreciate WASHINGTON'S advice, and the blessings of the Union and internal peace, which lie sought to make perpetual. We have thought and felt that the Constitution of this Union \yas laid in wisdom and justice, and that to the Union we owed our progress ond our great prosperity as a nation. We have revered the Constitution and rendered obedience to the laws made under it, and have loved our flag almost to idolatry, :is the emblem of our liberties and ourequal rights. We have had 110 kings or lords to worship, and ■• tr 1 * *■ - 1 hfi Union, and our Flag, and teel that all arocp qual under its folds. May this clay bring re newed devotion to the Constitution, the Union, and the Stars and Stripes! I have always thought and fc|fc*hut the judg ment and hearts of the people were for the Con stitution, the Union and the flag, as our fathers made them. It is true, we saw with amazement that there were some in the North who had taught them selves, and wished to teach others, to abhor the Constitution, and proclaimed it a covenant with hell; and others in the South, who denounced its action as unjust and oppressive, and sought to make others think the same. These men looked to a separation of the States, and the es tablishment of an Empire they could rule. Insignificant in flic beginning, by persevering efforts these two parties North and South have rrrown in strength, mid tins civul war is their result. But now the. hearts and feelings of the mighty mass of the people are aroused to the consequence, and we see 600,000 armed men marching with banners to the restoration of the Constitution and the Union. They are the con servative men of the country, and are deter mined to succeed, and the hearts of the people go with them. It some of the North have be come insane and taught themselves to believe the world is governed by one idea, and that they are the missionaries sent by heaven to domin ate over others; and if some of the South have become insane and made themselves believe that thev were born to rule and reign over another empire, we are not bound to yield our Consti tution, our Union, our equal laws, our equal I rights, and our glorious flag, to the insane de sires of one or both. They have both proven potent for evil. I have always felt it was far easier to restore the Union than to agree upon the terms of separa tion and the line of division. The great North west can never consent that the mouth of the Mississippi and the {southern ports should be. within the bounds of a foreign nation, and Kentucky and other internal Stales can never consent to bo the Border States of adjoining confederacies, and constitute themselves out posts for the defence and protection of the in terior. nor \\ ill they submit to numerous collec tion districts, to the system of permits and passes, nor be taxed in their outgoings and in comings. They have had free trade between the States and are determined still to have it. I have said our army is conservative, and marches to restore the Constitution and the U nion. This army is a wonderful creation of some seven months, and has now the. discipline of veterans, and in recent actions, has display ed a tenacity of purpose equal to the most relia ble soldiers of history. I have confidence in them and in their leaders, and have not been Impatient that they did not march to battle ear lier. I have been surprised that they marched on such roads and through such weather, and gained such glorious victories. I have wiahea the war carried on upon the most elevated prin ciples of Christian Humanity, and fully up to the highest civilization of the :igc. I would have our armies str ike boldly and firmly, with heart and soul, for the Constitution and Union as our fathers made them, but without any wanton destruction of human life or of prop- crty, public or private; and when the battle is over, the wounded, the dead, and also the pris oners, should lie eared for as becomes a Chris tian and civilized jrcople. This day, if the power was with me, an am nesty and free pardon should be proclaimed to all, whether in anus or not, who in a prescrib ed time give up their arms.and the Rebel cause, acknowledge the supremacy of the. Constitution and the laws, and agree to sumbit to them. I am asked what I v. > rid do with the lead ers: I reply, I would ! ~ve them to the tribu nals and the punishment prescribed by the laws they have violated, but I am for the largest for giveness consistent with the restoration of the Constitution and the safety of the Union. All M-e not leaders in this rebellion who have acted as its noisy champions, through the press or on the stump, or filled high places in the strife. My policy would embrace all who are repen tant. History records that the Jews, the fa vored nation of the Almighty, again and again resisted his sacred laws, and were again and a gaiu chastised for their rebellious acts. The scheme of salvation under our holy religion is based on repentance. When God forgives the repentant sinner, shall not man forgive his re -1 pentant fellow-man ? J>et us not be too exac ting. Let us remember that we are but human. The great truth should be present with us, that "To err is human, to forgive, divine." This is the teaching of God's truth. The people often rebelled against Jehovah, but Je hovah himself forgave the repentant sinners. This is the lesson of the Christian religion. As we expect forgiveness for our offences, we must forgive. If these misguided uietv who have taken up arms against the best Government ever seen, repent ;uid come back to their alle giance, let us receive them, and show the good ness and the power of the nation in its power to forgive. Those who repent of this rebellion, if pardoned, will not go wholly unpunished. They will have to bear the burden of conscious guilt, the reproaches of those they have blighted, and made widows and orphans and caused to mourn, and mistrust that must accompany them to the grave. 1 would declare this amnesty and pardon as a war measure. It may draw thousands who feci that rebellion is not a remedy for existing or supposed evils, and are earnestly and hope fully awaiting to escape, as far as possible, from the consequence of their acts. I would open the door for them. Many of the seceded States have always been for the Union, and only a wait the time they may safely lake ground for it. I would declare the amnesty and pardon as a financial measure of economy in this most ex pensive and wasteful civil war. I believe it woii^kact u promptly in the restoration of the tive in restoring the Union and be most signal victories our armies have or shall obtain. It it shorten the war but fifty or one hundred (lavs, it would save to the nation more than ten times the value of all the estates you could possibly confiscate in accordance with the Con stitution. You cannot confiscate the estates of non combatants: the old men, the widows, the or phans, the insane or the imbecile, from what ever cause, arc out of the reach of the most inveterate enemies of the rebellion. He ought not to waste and destroy the property of those whom we don't iulend to punish as Rebels. Their estates are a part of the fixed cupitid ol the nation, and we want it as a part of the na tional capital to increase the annual production of the country, to meet the unusual taxation that must go with this war, and follow it for many years. 1 have spoken of and considered the eo-rcstoration of the Constitution and the Union as a fixed fact, and have the most per fect convictions of it. Yet we have difficulties to encounter. The worst enemies of the Constitution are j those whose constant cry is for the blood of the j Rebels, and the confiscation of their estates, | with the emancipation of slaves, and who, to j reach their purposes, would trample the Con- j stitution, the rights of property, and the pr'lll- I eiples of humanity under foot, and blast forev- j cr the prosperity of the nation. Such men 1 propose to establish, through Congressional ac- j tioti, provisional governments over the seceded 1 States. t j I am glad to see our Union armies advan cing, although the weather is bad uud the roads j almost impassable, and I hope they will* now j strike heavy and quick. H'e want no provis-1 ional governments in the State under Congress- j ional action. The Union sentiment is strong j enough in .Tennessee, and I believe will be strong enough in all the Seceded States when I supported by the Union armies to take posses- j sion of the State government and bring them ; under the fold of the Constitution. There can | be no fear about the siqif-emaey of the Union j sentiments in those States. There is sound logic and convincing eloquence in the material force of our Union armies. Do not he surprised, as the armies advance, to find that the work of restoration is more prompt and decisive than the work of Secession, and far more unanimous. Kentucky had no heart for the civil war. She thought and felt that- it ■ ought not to have been, and hoped her voice for peace would be heard. Hiicn she found that hope was vain, she girded on her armor and determined to strike for the Constitution, the Union, and the flag. Last in the field, she wants to be first in the work of restoration. I have felt and hoped with Kentucky, and my heart and judgnent are still with her. If Congress is prompt, and efficient in action, with efficient aid from the Executive Depart ment, I see no reason why the Constitution and 1 the Union may not bo restored within the next ninety or ono hundred days, and more than 1 half this immense army returned to their peacc -1 ful homes and their usual industrial pursuits, r May God grant this, and give us peace and a - happy reunion, and enable us and our children, WBOVsE NUIHBEB, 9997. VOL. 5. NO. 33. and our children's children, whenever this day shall return, for coining centuries, to appreciate and act in accordance with the farewell advice of WASHINGTON, and make those who have en gaged in this civil warand those who have sym pathized with them, and their posterity, as loy al to the Constitution, the Union and the laws as WASHINGTON himself, and cause the enemies of the Constitution and the Union to become the friends of both. MESSAGED!" THE PBESEDENT, WASHINGTON, March G. The President to-day transacted to Congress the following message: Fellow-cttucns of the Senate and House of Jlepresentatiies: —l recommend the adoption of a joint resolution by your honorable bodies, which shall be sulietantially as follows : lie solved, That the United States ought to co operate with any State which may adopt a grad ual abolishment of slavery, giving to such State pecuniary aid to be used by such State in its discretion to compensate for the inconveniences, both public and private, produced by such change of system.. If the proposition contained in the resolu tion does not meet the approval of Congress and the country, there is the cml, but if it does com mand such approval. I deem it of importance that the State und people immediately interested should be at once distinctly notified of the fact, so that they may begin to consider whether to accept or reject it. The Federal Government would find its highest interest in such a measure as one. of the most elficient means of self-preservation. The leaders of the existing insurrection entertain the hope that this Government will ultimately be forced to acknowledge the independence of some part of the disaffected region, and that all the slave States north of such parts will then say, the Union for which we have struggled bd|| already gone, we now choose to go with the Southern section. To deprive them of this hope,substantially ends the rebellion, and the initiation of emancipation completely deprives them of it as to all States initiating it.—The point is not that- all the States tolerating slavery would very soon, if at all, initiate emancipation, but that while the offer is equally made to all the More Northern, shall, by such initiation, make it certain to the more Southern that in no event will the former ever join the latter in their proposed Confederacy. I say initiation because, in inv judgment, gradual and not sudden eman cipation is better for all. In the mere financial or pecuniary view, any member of Congress, with the census tables and treasury reports before him, can readily see for himself how very soon the current exj>endi turcs of this war would purchase, at fair valua a proposition on the part of the General Gov ernment sets up no claim of a right by Federal authority to interfere with slavery within State 1 limits, referring, as it dttcs, the absolute control ; of the subject in each ease to the State and its people immediately interested. It is proposed as a matter of perfectly free choice with them. In the. annual message of last December, I j thought fit to say, the Union must be preserved, j and hence ull indispensable means must he om ! ployed. I said this not hastily, but deliberately, j War has been made, and continues to be an in : dispensable means to this end. A practical re acknowledgment of the national authority would ' render the war unnecessary, and it would at once ] cease. If, however, resistance continues, the | war must also continue, und it is impossible to ' foresee nil the incidents which may attend, and ! all the ruin which may follow it. Such as may seem indispensable, or may ob j viously promise great efficiency towards ending S the struggle must and will come—the proposi- I tion now made is an offer only. I hope it may ' be esteemed no offence to ask whether the pecu niary consideration tendered would not be of ! more value to the State and private persons j and property in it in the present aspect of | affairs. While it is true that the adoption of the pro posed resolution would be merely initiatory, and not within itself a practical measure, it is rec ommended, in the hope that it would soon lead to important practical results. In full view of my great responsibility to my God and to my country, I earnestly beg the attention of Con gress and the people to the subject. (Signed) ABRAHAM LINCOLN. NOT IN FAVOR OF A RESTORATION OF THE UNION. It is now evident to every one that the Repub lican leaders are opposed to reconstruction of the Union. They can no longer deny this, for the record of their treason is before the country. In the House of Representatives, at Washington, a few days since, Mr. Holman (Dem.,) ot In diana, offered a resolutior declaring that, in the judgment of this House, the unfortunate civil war into which the Government of the United States has lx>en forced by the treasonable at tempt of Southern Secessionists to destroy the Union, should not be prosecuted foi" any other purpose than the restoration of the authority of j the Constitution and welfare of the whole peo i pic of the United States, who arc permanently ' involved in the preservation of our present form ! of government without modification or change, j Mr. Lovcjoy (Rep.,) of Illinois, moved to lay j the resolutions on the table.

LINCOLN- ANU DAWES. —Two or three days before the ball at the White House, Mr. Lincoln sent word to Mr. Dawes, through a - brother member, that he [Dawes] had done more to break down the administration than any other man in the country, by his speech exposing the corrup back a mpssage.' in r<Tify'ttmie i-W&tJ&HV"" SPill him," said Mr. D., "that nothing that I can do will break down his administration so rapidly as this dancing party, given at a time when tho notion is in the agonies of civil wnr. With o qual propriety might a man make a ball with a corpse in his house. TAKING A HINT. —"Why. Pete, you've got hack from Dodd's early; isn't Ruth ter hum ?" inquired a Yankee girl of her awkward broth er, who had been a courtiu' about half an hour before. "Yaas, she was tliar; but I and the old man didn't agree very well, so he giii mc a hint and I left. "A hint! pray what sort of a hint!" "Wall, he opened the door aud pointed doWn towards our house, and then kindly raised his right foot as though ho was going to kick, and J felt so shamed of such conduct before Ruth, that I started oft' without sayin' another word." The Union, a German paper, published iu Pittsburg, says that when the news of Camer on's appointment as Minister reached Russia, the Emperor immediately collected his plates, jewels and other valuables, which lie securely locked up in an underground arch built for the purpose. AI.WAVS TUCK TO THE UNlON. —Governor Spraguc, of Rhode Island, in accepting the nomination of the Democratic Convention, said "he had always found the Democratic party * true to the. Union." This is the glory of that glorious old party, and t 1 — not share it with any other; the same eai.. t uuly be said ,of any other party. It is not what a man says, but what ho acquires, in the direction of mental, moral and affcctional qualities of character that con stitutes him a Christian. If a man lias a Chris tian's heart lie will do a Christian's work; there fore the quality of this work is the proof of his charucter.
