The Message
The message of Pregident Johnson,
which we publish this week, will be im
posed by our readers, or at least by that
poirtion of them who feel an interest in
national affairs, with intense -interest.
They will"reed it not only Because it is
tho utterance and opiuien of the Presi
dent of the United States, but because
it treats of questions which arc of int
mense importance to the 'people of this
.'county, and which threaten to affect
their preselt welfare and ,their future
prosperity.
Just at this time President Johnson
ocoupies a position the moat important
and responsible of 1 4 .ny itrall the world.
A nation, for four long years divided by
internecine strife, .has just been restored
to peace. -A' number of its States , have
been ravaged by the horrors of war, and
their governments 'revolutionized and
overturned: The - dr brdet of thongs
has been reversed, and commonwealths
that were once sovereign and independ
ent have been made dependencies of the
General Government. Immense armies
have been overthrown, and triumphant
_ ona-have--eeeAttn~ the
territor'y'. The fields- have Iteen laid
waste ; happy homes htive been made
desolate ; towns and cities have been
burned ; women have been foully out
raged; men have been butchered in'
cold blood ; and the pride pf a brave,
generous and chivalric people has been
humbled. The great temple of nation
_ silty which they had set up has been
, torn doK, and underneath its ruins lie,
crushed and bleeding, the hopes and 119
pirations of a magnanimous and power
ful community.
In consequence of these things, a feel
big of bitterness has arisen which per
meates all classes of society—the rich
and poor, the high and low, the bond
and free. The South deems itself deeply
injured and, foully wronged, and looks
upon the North as the Cause of all its
woe and desolation. The North, on the
other hand, feels hself aggrieved in that
the . Government, while under the ad
ministration of a Northern man, was as
sailed by the South, and attributes all
the enormous outlay of blood and trea
sure that have been expended in the
great struggle, to the fully and jealousy
of the South;tand hence does not bear
the kindest feelings toward that section.
Between the sections, then, as the result
of the struggle that has so lately closed,
we have a legacy of hatred and bitter
ness.. The recent wounds are gaping
and Weeding still, and it will require a
wise head, a steady hand and a kind
heart to pour the oil of love and good
Will into the festering sores that rankle
imthe life of the body politic.
in this state of affairs the position of
President Johnson becomes peculiarly
trying and difficult. It is his task to
bring back harmony andttomord among
the people , it is his task to smooth
over the wrongs of the past, and to heal
the bleeding wounds now , so deeply and
se bitterly felt; it is his ta'k to restore
the now dependent States of the South
to their finnier power and position in
- the Union, and to make their inhabi
tants feel that they arc once more free
and independent citizens of a great coun
'' try It is his task to unite once again,
in fraternal bonds, the people of the
North and South, and to Lring them to
gether in 'amity and peace, so that they
will neveii again disrupt the ties that
maim them one natelon and ono brother
hood-. Surßy this is a task worthy of
the greatest powers and qualifications of
the greatest man that ever lived, and
one which w ill blfv . wr with undying re
jsowu Ile name of the man who shall
soceeqully accomplish, the desirable
result
President Johnson has twtom lily sworn
Irsdischargo the duties of his high of
- See faithfully, to the best of his knowl
-Mige'llaii ability. He is, therefore,
pledged, befoie.God, to act dispassion
ately in all that he undertakes, and to
seam& the best interests of the nation
sad the people in preferbnce to all minor
or party issues. He has himself )lis
alaiated all partisan feeling,,aud avowed
his determination to do the lost in his
pour to restore our country to its for
m/sr psuntl position as an independent
sod glorious republic. Let ns accept his
wort!ein good - faith, and, trust that, nn
/sr Providence,, he will be enabled to
falfill this intention to the happiness
and prosperity of this people. In his
onerous end responsible public duties be
seeds the confidence, the support, and
the prayers of every good citizen. If
ha prove himself the right kind of a
uric, and if he be actuated by pe other
iltagre thanAlte sued of his country, he
fillasesive thit eeniklenoe and support,
&A daily will , the Nation's prpyers as
titt tisiieassit in his behalf. lie will
thus find himself the htfilored Chief' of
a great people, who, though now sorely_
disiketeed and weighed &lam by a bur
den of anxiety, will look up to him rika,
be nelleent ociumiellni,Jkiend and guide.
We have thus endeiivored to hold up,
in exteimation of whatever defects may
be found in the message, the vast duties
and responsibilities of the President, at
this time. In sonic portions of the
mesiage it will probably be thought that
he says too little ; in others that he says
too much ; and we have even heard it
asserted that from the beginning to the
end of the document he has absolutely
Said nothing. People are prone to judge
the utterances of the Chief Magistrate
by the party to which they belong, Wnd
by this cour , e injustice is very often
dune to sent i went:4 that are really sound
and patriotic ; or, on tie otinir hand,
mea-ures and opinions that are aii,o
lutely ararequently magnified
by panty favor' into utter:l+4s of On
found wisdom and statesmanship.. Pre
sident Johnson's nie,sage; like all, ikh
ers which have preceded it, will be s7b
,jected to the same , course of eriticisn,
and
, as the impressions er feelings of be
party criticising happen to coincide or
differ with it, so will its language be
con•trued. ,
P. GRAY NlSti
For our part, taken as a wh , ilg, we
think the message is commendable: It
is dignified, calm and staterenatilike.
There is no reviling of the South. no
calling el names, or threats of punish
ment. The, President speaks of treason'
in a general ay*, Lot is careful to say
nothing about hanging Jefferson Davis,
or any other Southoru leader. Ile men
tions the pardoning power as though
gratified that, he has been able to use it
for the benefit 'of sonic of these very
men, and intimates that ho will continue
to use it as a beans of bringing back
the old kindly feeling between the North
and-aft:South.- - -is- not,- it le true ; -a«
explicit on the question of negro suf.-
frnge as be might have been, but he ux
pressly denies the right of the General
Government, or of the President, by
proclamation, to extend- the right of
suffrage to the Fro•finie:, of the swirl' •
ern Statue, or to - firce - olored population
of any State in the Union. That ques
tion, he says, belongs to the States, and
it is for them alone to decide it. This is
a nut for our radical abolition friends to
crack.
On the subject of the currency we
think his remarks are sound, and th,cre:
fore commend them. He thinks thole
bor of the country should not be made
to feel all the burden of the national
debt, but that tire wealth of the land
should be made to bear its due propor
tion. Ile cautions the business Men of
the"country to pay off, as speedily as
possible, all debts contracted in a paper
currency, and - by a system of cash pay
ments or short credits' ”to prepare for a
return to a standard of gold and silver:"
He suggests a plan for the reduction of
the national 'debt, and we think his re
marks arc worthy of careful considera
tion.
Our foreign relationsOthe President
sayS, are sati l ifactory, though we have
some accounts to bettlerWith England,
arising out of our late civil war. The
language here is a little ambiguous, and
it is hard to say whether the President
meant to threaten or not. On the sub
ject of Mexico nothing is said.
We think, on the whole, the message
may be commended. It is certainly an
improvement on those of President
Johnson's predegeAor, and thus fur, at
least, the Democracy should be satisfied
with it. We Should be careful to judge
it impartially—not with prejudice. 4'.lh
'the hands of President Johnson rest
mighty issues, and while he may not ex
actly act up to our ideas of what ,ought
,to be done, we niu.t take into considera
tion the fact that iofdllibilit) is the at
tribute of no man, and that he is capa
ble of being as nearly in the right as we
are. We arc disposed to give President
Johnson a fair trial.
The ,(..2neluding paragraphs of the
mea.age "are really eloquent, and the
handsomely-rounded periods of the Pre
aident will please even his stiengest 'oP
pmients. Let all read it and then judge,
calmly and dispassionately, of the mer
its and demerits of the document,
--—General Beast _gilder has resigned
his position in the army, and his rcsig ;
nation has been promptly accepted by
the President. Gen. Grant's report
blew him sky-high, and the military ser
vice and the country generally may now
rest secure from all apprehensions of
any more egregious blunders by this in
comparable nincompoop in the art of
war. "Every dog must have his day,"
and this big belliedcanine hathrad his.
He will now sink back to the obscurity
from whence be rose, and while gnawing
at the bone of disappointment and dis
grace, he will rave leisure to think over
the honors (?) he achieved at Great
Bethel. New Orleans and Fort Fisher.
No doubt he will growl some as the rec
ollections of these celebrated epochs in
his.history obtrude themselves upon his
memory, but his growling will be use
less now, and as harmless as were his
operations against the enemy. -Benin
°AlM we wish you joy over your remin
iscenets.
But yesterday, as it were, "lm might
habe stood against the world—now,
none so poor to do him reverence."
And Benjamin F. Butler is probably to
day the most universally detested man
in the United States, His depth has
been fathomed ; the shallowness of his
mind atd heart has been fully exposesd,
and his meanness, bigotry and tyranny
have lberame objects of public disgust
and coodeibbation. Under the weight
of his oviirbbloquy he ball sunk into re
tirement: There lerus leave him, trust,
ing that we may " ne'er look upon his
like again.'

ever they please. It the persons elected
oannut or will' nottake the oath of allegi
ance to the United States•Governmeut, of
course they cannot be permitted to perform
any official functions, but, if they take that
oath. nothing else should be required of
them beyond. the strict and faithful fulfill-
Menl of its obligations. If, after taking it,
they violate it, they should be punished i•
any mode deemed the must salutary and
expedient.
We want to see the test oath law of Con
gress repealed as soon as it min be. It is
wholly unadapted.le,the time. In The light
of rebut developments, the Country cannot
fail to see that no delegations can be sent
by the Southern States to Congress, no del
egations fit to be called such, that could
conscientiously take the test oath, fur till of
the men of any consequence in the South
have, for one or another reason, aided, ne
cessarily, the rebellion and the rebels. fte
say, then, repeal the test oath ! Repeal It
at once! Let the men elected from the
South take the oath of allegiance, if they
have not 'done so already, and take their
seats in Congress, without being required to
swear that they have done nothing to help
the rebellion. If all thisas t who have di
rectly OP indirectly helped the rebellion nre
to be forever shut out from the great rights
and privileges of their fellow-countrymen,
no such thing as pacification can, alpres
ent or for a long time, come within the rang/
of mortal ken.
Certainly the masses of the South have
been in rebellion, and that fact cannot be
made anything but a fact. And it is nat
ural, that, having returned to their allegi
ance, they should prefer to elect to office
those who were with them in their return to
allegiance. If conscious of rectitude, they
can have no reason to doubt the rectitude
of such of their prominent fellow-cititens as
have pursu-Al the some course that they
themselves have pursued. It would be In
tolerance, it would be oppression, it would
be persecution, to require of them that they
shall either go unrepreenthd in the edit
gress of the nation or elect men, if such
they can find, who were against them
throughout the whole of their awful con
flict.
We know what Congress ought to do, but
not what it is likely to do. We wink that
it were a mush wiser body thitn we think it
is.—Louorille
Sta nton,
The executive documents are full of
contrasts—Stanton R vulgarity, as reveal
ed in his report between the calm iliizni
ty of the President's Message, and the
soldierly nioderttion of Deneral iirant's
letter to the War Department, This
modern farnot, as his admiteri call him,
and we doubt not he would have been a
regicide if he had a (+alive, seems una
ble to control the evil passions oritii na
ture; and now, iihen NIJCVC,S has crown
ed the 14 1 tderal cause, and Lis enemies
lie prostrate before hum, he is as coarse
and truculent as he was or, the trial of
Sickles, or when he was superintending
the tying of Mrs. Surrat's legs. While
the President and General,Grant, with
the instincts of gentlemen, abstain from
nick names and ugly mords; whilst, in:
deed, the General speaks respectfully of
the heroic valor of his enemies, Stanton
rails and scolds at them like a very drab.
He repeats the words "rebels and trai
tors" some fifty times in his report. I•le
objurgates the captive. He shakes his
fist at the exihl. }3ie manifesto is ten
times as warlike and vehement in tones
as all the reports of the fighting- men
unless it be his fried Butler's, put to
gether. It is not unlike a stanza which
we have lately seen, from the pen of
poet whose pent up valor since the was
is over thus bursts forth :
And now the quaking air
Roars with repeated thunder,
And the fiery sobs of the cannon tear
Their brazen lips asunder.'
And "brazen lips" they, aro which
repeat, as doe Mr. Stanton, the explo
ded calumny Mat the murder of Mg.
Lincoln was the work of authorized
Confederate agents, or that Mr. Davis
was "in disguise" when he waecaptured.
Mr. Stanton knows that neither of these
is true. As indecentin his reference to
the result of the Presidential election of
1864 as an element of military success
ascertained from "intercepted letters
and dispatches," a reliance quite wor—
thy of Holt , or detective Baker, but
hardly fit for a Cabinet minister.—Age.

Grant Showtng Up Butler
TLe priLking of a bubble showei its utter
olluwnets at once. Human bubbles some-
times Manage to float for a long time before
they 'are pierced by the sharp point of the
keen spear of truth and their utter empti
ness exposed to the publio view. Now and
then, however, some pretentious charade
is disposed of by a single rude thrust.—
, 'Sutler, the beast,. as he has been' aptly
rtermed, has been blown into a kind of
meretricious notoriety /if means of the pens
( or mendacious reporters fur radical newe
-1 papers. Gen. Grant in his report, which
all men will receive as truthful, moat effect
ually disposes of this would-be hero. The
New York Herald, in its review of General
Giant's report, very forcibly says:
"Grant's references to Butler put that
doughty personage before the Country in
the proper light for the first lime. They
show howdrpractical, sincere man regards
such an empty, blatant pretender,.and Just
ly hold him up to contempt. Butler was
instructed from the first in the campaign
against Richmond, that that oily :was his
objeotive point, and that was to co-operate
with the ..rmy of the Potomac, and to seize
or invest the rebel capital while Meade
engaged Lee on the Rapidan. The plan
was perfect, and no person with less Inge
null.), than Butler would have found it pee-
Bible to spoil It. Butler, however, managed
wonderfully not to do what was requisite.
lie was shown that Riqhmond mould net be
reinforced from the .oath or from Lee's
army, and yea at his Mercy ; but instead
of seizing it he sat down at Bermuda Run
dred'and wrote despatches and “suffered
the enemy to as - completely shut him off
from further operations against, Richmond
as if he had been in a bottle strongly sort
ed." Snob is Grant's contemptuous dispo
sal of Butler's 00-operation against tbs
rebel capital. Sulemmnently, when Grant
was ordising the James, the enemy 14 tie
road from Bulbous& to Petersburg on:But.
ler's front undefended; and Butler *felled
it. Grant seeing the advantage, sent the
Sixth oorpe to enable Butler to held what
be had taken, and Butler kept the Birth
corps in idleness ; wit its • tbs. enemy recap
tured the road. Nothing but Nutlet' Fort
Fisher &hare dould have put a Climax to
thftrachievements. Grant shows bow the
order for Weitsel to set against Wilteington
as smothered by Butler; bow Boiler Wilht
where lie was not sent and came sway when
there was no reason ; and then bow Terry,
with nearly the same force, attoomplished
what Butler. had deolaredlimmpwasible.. A.
thwisquel to Mil - Giant merely says : "At
in, request Major General B. F. Butler was
relieted, and Major General B. 0. C; Ord,
assigned to the -command of the -Depart—
slant of Virgin?"' and North Carolina,"
Butler in this report ant Butler before the
