EXAUtiUHAIi ADDItl'.SS
OF
GENERAL ULYSSES S. GRANT.
Citizens of the United Mute: Your
sufrrngo linvlng clovntctlnioto tlio oillco
or President of tho United States, I
lmvo in conformity wltlitlicconstltuUon
of our country, Inkon tho oath of offlco
prescribed therein. I have taken this
oath without mental reservation, and
with tho determination to do to tho best
of my nblllty,allthat It requires of mo.
Tho responsibilities of tho position l
feel, but ncccpt thorn without fear. Tho
ofllco has como to mo unsought; I com-
menco Its duties u n t r a m m o 1 1 o d.
I bring to It a conscientious dcslro nnd
determination to llll It to tho best of
myablllty,to tho satisfaction of tho peo
ple. On nil lcadlngquestlons agitating
tho public mind. I will always express
my views to Congress, nnd urgo them
according to my Judgment, and when
I think it advisable will cxerciso tho
constitutional prlvllego of Interposing
a veto to defeat measures which I op-
posB.But nil laws will bo faithfully exectt
ted whether they meet my npprovnl or
not. I shall on all subjects havo a poll
cy to recommend, nono to enforce
against tho will of tho people. Laws
aro to govern nil allko, tho.so opposed
to, as well aa th030 In favor of them. I
know no method to sccuro tho repeal of
bad or obnoxious laws so cffoctivo as
their stringent execution
l'ho country having Just emerged
from a great rebellion, many questions
will como before it forsettlementln tha
next four years, which preceding Ad
ministrations havo never had to deal
with. In meeting these, It is dcslrablo
that they should bo appreciated calmly,
without prejudice, liato, or sectional
pride, remembering that tho greatest
good to tho greatest number is tho oil
Ject to bo attained. This requires seen
rity of person, property and for relfg.
ions and political opinion in every part
of ourcommon country, without regartl
to local prejudice. All laws to securo
this end will receive my best cllorts
for enforcement.
A creat debt has been contracted in se
curing to us anil our posterity timu niou.
Tho navment of this, principal and
in tercst, as well as the return to n spc
cie basis as soon us it can bo accom
plished without material detriment to
thedeblor clamor to thocountry at large
must bo provided for. To protect tho na
tional honor, every dollar of gov
eminent indebtedness should bo paid
in gold, unless otherwiso expressly
btipulatoil in tho contract. Let it bo
understood that no repudiator .of one
farthing of our public debt will bo trus
ted in public places, and it will go far
toward strengthening a credit which
ought to bo tlio best in tho world, and
will ultimately enable us to replace the
debt with bonJa bearing less interest
than wo now pay. To this shall be nd
tied a faithful collection of tlio revenue:
a strict accountability to tho Treasury
for every dollar collectcd,nnu tjio great
est practicable retrenchment in expen
dltures in ovcry department of govern
ment.
When wo comparo tho paying capa
city of thocountry now, with ten States
still in poverty from tho effects of tlio
war, but soon to emerge, I trust, int
greater prosperity than over before
with its paying capacity twonty-flvo
years ago, and calculate whnt it prolia
uly will bo twenty-flvo years hence
who can doubt tho feasibility of paying
every dollar then wiih moro ease than
we now pay for useless luxuries? Why
it looks as though Provldonco had I.e
towed upon us a strong box, tho pre-
clous metals locked up in tho storil
mountains of tho far West, which w
aro now forging (ho key to unlock, t
ueet tli c very contingency (lint is now
upon us.
Ultimately It may bo ncces.sary to in
teaso tho facilities to reach these rlclu1
and it may bo necessary also that tlio
General Government should glvo it
aitl to secure this ntftw, But that
should only bo when n dollar of obllga
tlon to nav secures precisely tho saino
sort of dollar In nso now, nnd not be
fore.
Whilo tho question of specie pay
mentsis in nbeyanco the prudent bti-l
ncs man is careful nbout contract!!!
debts payable In tho distant future; the
nation should follow thosamo rule,
prostrate commerce Is to bo rebuilt an
nil industries encouraged. Tho youn
men of tlio country tbo.o who form
this ago and must be rulers tweuty-uv
years hence have a peculiar interest I
maintaining tlio national Honor. A
moment's reflection upon what will bo
our commanding iniluciico among tho
nations of tho earth in their day, if they
aro only truo to themselves, bhould In
Fplro them with national pride. All
divisions, ireoiiraphical, political nnd
religious, can Join In tho common sen
timent
How tho public debt is to bo paid, or
specie payments resumed, Is not so Im
nortant ns that a plan siiouiu do atiopt
cd and acquiesced In, A united deter
initiation to do Is worth moro than ill
ldcd counsols upon tho method of do
ing. Legislation on this subject may
not bo necessary now, nor oven advisa
ble; but It will bo when tho civil law
Is moro fully restored In all patts of
the country, nud trado resumes its won
ted channels. Itwlllbomy endeavor
to oxecutoall lawsln good faith, to col-
loot all revenues assessed, nud to havo
them properly disbursed. I will, to tho
best or my nblllty.appolnt to oflleo only
thoso who will carry out this design.
In regard to foreign policy, I would

PRESIDENT JOHNSON'S
FAREWELL AIDDHESS.
Washington, March 3.
President Johnson has Issued tlio
following address :
To the Pcopte of the United (states:
Tho robo of oillco, by constitutional
limitation, this day falls fiom my
shoulders, lo bo Immediately assumed
by my .successor. For him the forbear-
an co nnd co-operation of tho American
eoplo In all his efforts lo administer
the government within tho palo of tho
Federal Constitution, nro sincerely In
voked. Without ambition to gratify
ends to subserve, or personal quarrels to
nvengo at tho sacrifice of tho peace and
welfare of the country, my earnest do-
siro is, to sco tho Constitution, as defin
ed nnd limited by tho fathers of tho
republic, again recognized nnd obeyed
as tho supremo law of tho laud, and the
wholo people, North, South, East and
West, happy nnd prosperous under Its
wise provisions.
In surrendering tho high oillco to
which I was called four years ago, at a
memorable and terrible crisis, It is my
privilege, I trust, to say to tho people
of tho United States a few parting
words in vindication of an official
course so ceaselessly assailed and aspers
ed by political leaders, to whoso plans
and wishes my policy to rcstoro tho
Union lias been obnoxious. In a period
of diiliculty and turmoil, almost with
out precedent in tl o history of any
people, consequent upon tho closing
scenes of a great rebellion, and tho as
sassination of tho then President, it
was, perhaps, too much on my part to
expect of devoted partisans, who rodo
on tho waves of excitement, which at
that time swept till buforo them, that
degreu of toleration and magnanimity
which I bought to recommend and en
force, and which I believe in good timo
would havo advanced us infinitely
further on the road to permanent peace
and prosperity than wo havo thus far
attained. Doubtless, had 1, at tho com.
menccment of my term of office, tup
hesitatingly lent its powers, or pervert
ed them lo purposes and plans outside
uf the Constitution, nnd become un In
strumcnt to schemes of confiscation
and of general and oppressive disquali
llcntioiH,! would havcbcen hailed, ua nil
that was true, loyal, and discerning, as
the reliable head of a party, whatever I
might havo been. As the Executive of
the nation, unwilling, however, to ac-
cedo 1 1 propositions of extremists, nnd
bound to adhere nt every personal
hazard to my oath to defend tho Consti
tution, I need not, perhaps, ho surpris
ed at having int t thu fate of others
wlio.-o only rewards for upholding con
stitutional right and law, havo been tho
consciousm'.ss of having attempted to
do their duty, and the calm anil unpre
judiced Judgment of history. At tho
tliiiou mysterious Providence assigned
to mo tho oillco of President, 1 was by
the terms of the Constitution, thu Com-uiaiiiler-in-Cliii'f
of nearly it million of
men under anus. One of my first nets
was to disband anil restore to tlio voca
tions of civil life, this immotiso host,
and to divest liiyseir, so far as I could,
of tho unparalleled powers then inci
dent to tho olllce and the times.
Whether or not In thistep I wits
right, and how far deserving tho appro
bation of the people, nil can now on ro
llection, Judge, when reminded of tho
ruinous condition of public affairs, that
must havu resulte.l from tho contlnu
anco in tho military service or such a
vast number or men. Tho closo of our
domestic conflict round the army eager
to distinguish itself In a new Held, by
nn effort to punish European interven
tion in Mexico; by many it was believ
ed and urged that, usldo from tho as
sumed Justice of tho proceeding, a
foreign ivnr, in which both sides would
cheerfully unlto to vindicate tho honor
of tho national Hug, and further Illus
trate tho national prowesi, would bo
tho surest and speediest way of awak
ening national enthusiasm, reviving
dovotlon to tho Union, and occupying
a forco concerning which grave doubts
existed as to its willingness, after four
years or nctivo campaigning, at onco to
return to tho pursuits or peace. Wheth
er these speculations wcro truo or Talic,
it will bo conceded that they existed,
and that tho predilection or tlio nrmy
wcro, tor 1110 timo lieiug, in uio uireu
tion indicated.
Taking advantage or this feeling, it
would havo been easy, as tho Command-er-in-Chlef
of tho Army and Navy, and
with all thopowjr and patronage of tho
Presidential office at my disposal, to
turn the concentrated military strength
of tho nation against French Interfer
ence In Mexico, and to lnaugujato a
movement which would havo been ro
eelved with ravor by tho military and n
largo portion of tho people. It Is prop
er lu this connection that I bhould refer
to tho almost unlimited additional pow
ers tendered to tho Executlvo by tho
measures relating to civil rights nnd
tho Freedmcn's Bureau. Contrary to
most precedents In tho experience or
public men, tho powers thus placed
within my grasp wero declined, as in
violation orthoCoiiMttutlon,diuigeroui
to tho liberties or tho people, and tend
lug to nggrnvuto rather than lessen tho
discords naturally resulting from our

COL.
With u largo nrmy and augmented
authority, It would have been no dllll
cult task to direct, at pleasure, tlicvlestl
nles or tho Republic, nud to make
securo my continuance In tho highest
ofllco.known toourlaws. Let tho people,
whom I am nddressing from tlio Presi
dential chair during tlio closing hours
of a laborious term, consider how differ
ent would havo been their present con
dition had I yielded to tho dazzling
temptation of foreign conquest, of per
sonal aggrandizement, and tho desiro
lo wield additional power. Lot them
with Justlco consider that If I havo not
unduly magnified my ofllco tho public
burdens havo not been Increased by my
acts, and other and pcrlinps thousands
of tens of thousands of lives sacrificed
to visions of falno glory.
It cannot, therefore, bo charged that
my ambition hns been of that ordinary
or criminal kind which, to tho detri
ment of tho pcoplo's rights and liberties,
ever seeks to grasp moro and unwar
ranted powers, and to nccompllsh iti
purposes, panders, too often, to popular
prejudices nnd party aims, what then,
huvo been tho nsplrations which guided
mo In my official acts? Thoso acts need
not at this timo an claborato explana
tion. They havo been elsewhere com
prehensively stated nnd fully discussed,
and become n part of tho nation's his
tory. By them I am willing to bo
Judged, knowing that, however impor
tant, they at least show to tho Impartial
mind that my solo ambition has been to
restore tho Union of tho States, faith
fully to execute the offlco of President,
and lo tho best of my ability to pro-
servo and protect and defend tho Con
stitution. I cannot bo censured If my efforts
havo been Impeded in tho Interest of
party faction, and of n policy which
was Intended to reassuro and conciliate
tho people of both sections of tho couu
try, was mado occasion of inflaming
and dividing still farther those who
wcro only recently inarms against each
other, yet as individuals and citizens,
were sincerely desirous, as I shall ever
believe, of burying all hostile feelings
in tho grave of tlio past. The bitter
war was waged on tho part of thu gov
ernment to vindlcato the Constitution
and savo tho Union, and if I havo
erred in trying to bring nbout a moro
speedy and lasting peace, to extinguish
heart-burnings and enmities, and to
prevent troubles In tho South, which,
retarding material prosperity in that
region, injuriously nfiectcd tlio whole
country, I am qulto content to rest my
ca-e with the moro deliberate judgment
of tho people, and, as I havo idrcady
intlma'oJ, with tlio distant ruture.
Tho war,all must remember, was a stu
pendous and doplorablo mistake. Ncl
ther sldo understood tho other, and had
tills Blmplo fact and itsconcluslonsbccn
kept in view, nil that was needed was
accomplished by tho acknowledgment
of tho terrible wrong and the expressed
bitter feeling and earnest endeavor nt
atoneineut.shown and fcltintho prompt
ratification of the Constitutional Amend
ments by tho Southern States at tho
close ot tho war. Notacccpting war as
a confessed falso stop on tho part of
thoso who inaugurated it, was au error
which nowonly timo can euro and wlud
even at this Into date wo should endea
vor to palliate. Experiencing, more
over, ns nil havo done, tho frightful cost
of tho arbitrament of tho sword, let
us in tho future cling closer than ever
to tho Constitution as our only safeguard
It is to bo hoped that not until tlio bur
dons now pressing upon us with snub
Tearful weight aro removed, will our
people forget tho lessons of tho war;
and Hint, remembering them, from
hatuviT cause, peace between section
anil Stato may bo perpetuated.
The history oriateovents lu our coun
try, ns well us of ancient nud modern
times, toadies that wo havo everything
to fear from tho departure from the let
ter and spirit of tho Constitution, and
undue ascendency or men allowed lo
assume power in whnt aro considered
special emergencies. Sylla, on becom
ing master of Rome, at oneu adopted
measures to crush his enemies and con
solidate the power of his party. Ho es
tabllshed military colonies throughout,
and deprived or full Roman franchise
tho inhabitants of Italian towns who
had approved his usurpation, confisca
ted their lauds and gavo them to his
soldiers, and conferred citizenship on a
groat number of slaves belonging to
those who had protcrlbed him, thus
creating at Rome a kind of body guard
Tor his protection.
After having given Homo over to
slaughter and tyranny beyond all exam
ple over.thoso opposed to him anil his lo
glons.hls torrlblo instrument of wrong,
Sylla could yet feel afo iu laying down
tho euslgu or power, bo dreadfully
abused, anil In mingling freely with
tho familiars and friends of his myriad
victims. Tho fear which Iiu had in
spired continued after his voluntary ab
dication; and oven in retirement, his
will was law to a pcoplo who had per
mitted thcmsolvcs to bocnslaved.WJint,

ludilferenco to consequences so terriblo
as to Ieavo Bomo upon to every calami

have Justified tho conclusion! of tho
dictator and tyrant in his startling ox
pcrlment?
Wo find that, lu the time which has
since elapsed, human nature ami oxl

changed. Who, a fow years past, In
contemplating our future, could havo
supposed that, In a brief period or bit

iu tho nam' or military emergency or
dictated by caprlco, would cumo to bo
considered as mero matters of courso?
That conscription, confiscation, loss of
porsonnl liberty, tho subjection of States
to military rule and disfranchisement,
with tho extension of tho right of suf
frage, merely to accomplish party ends,
would receive tho passive submission,
If not acqulescenco, of tho people of tho
Republic. It has been clearly demon,

not bo prevented by the President idono
however dovotcd or determined lie may
bo, nnd that unless tho pcoplo lutcrposo
tllcro Is no power under tho Constitution
to check a dominant party of two-thirds
u tho Congress of tho!Unlted Slates.
An appeal to tho nation, howovcr, is
nttended with too much delny to meet
an emergency; while, irieft frco to net,
tho pcoplo would correct, In time, such
flvlls us might follow lcglslntlvo usur
pation.
Thcro Is tlnngcr that tho samo power
which disregards tho Constitution
will deprlvo them of tho right to
chango their rulers, except by revolu
tion. Wo havo already Been tho Juris
diction of tho Judiciary circumscribed
when it was apprehended that tho courts
would dccldo against laws, having for
their solo object tho supremacy of party,
while- tho veto power lodged in tlio Ex
ecutive by tho Constitution for tho In
terest nnd protection of tho people, and
exercised by Washington nnd his suc
cessors, lias been rendered nugatory by
a partisan majority ot two-thirds in
each branch of tho national legislature.
Tho Constitution evidently contem
plates that when a bill is returned, with
tho President's objections, it will bo
calmly reconsidered by Congress. Sucli
howovcr, has not been tho practlco un
der prcsent.party rulo. It has becomo
evident that men who pass a bill under
partizan Influence, aro not likely,
through patriotic motives, to admit
their error, nnd thereby weaken their
own organizations by solemnly confess-
ng It under nn official oath.
Pride of opinion, if nothing else, has
intervened and prevented a calm and
Ilspasslonato reconsideration of a bill
disapproved by tho Executive. Much
as I venerato tho Constitution, it must
bo admitted that this condition or af
fairs has developed a defect which, un
der tho aggressive tendency of tho leg
islative department of tho government
may readily work its overthrow. It
may.howovcr bo remedied withoutdls
turbing tho harmony of thoinstrumcnt.
Tho veto power is generally exercised
upon Cou&titutionalgrounds,and when
ever It is so applied, and the bjll re
turned with tho Executlvo leasons for
Wlthholdingdiis signature, It ought to
bo Immediately certified to thoSuprcmo
Court of the United States for its decls-
ion. If Its constitutionality shall bo
decreed, by that tribunal, it should then
becomo a law; but if the decision is
otherwise, it should fall, without pow.
er in Congress to ro-cnact and make it
valid. In cases in which the veto rests
upon hasty and inconslderato legislation
and lu which no constitutional question
is Involved, it would not change the
fundamental law, for iu such caso no
permanent evil can bo incorporated into
tho Federal system. It is obvious that
without such an amendment, tho gov
ernment, as it existed under tho Const!
tution prior to tho rebellion, may bo
wholly subverted or overthrown by a
two-thirds majority in Congress. It is
not, therefore, difficult to seo how easily
nnd haw rapidly tho pcoplo may lose
shall I not say have lost their liberties
by an uneheckdo and utieont rollablo ma
jorlty in tlio law-making power, nnd
when onco deprived of their rlglits,how
powerless they nro to regain them
Lot us look for n moment to the his
tory or tho mnjority in Congress, which
has acted In such utter disregard of tho
Constitution, while public-attention has
been carefully nnd constnntly turned to
tho past nnd expiated sins of tho South
Tho servants of tho people In high pla
ces havo boldly betrayed their trust
broken their oaths or observance to tho
Constitution, and undermined the very
foundations of liberty, Justice and good
government. When tho rebellion was
being suppressed by tho volunteered
services of patriotic soldiers, amid tlio
dangers of tho battlefield, these men
crept, without question, into place and
power In tho national council. After
all danger had passed, when no armed
foo remained, when a punished and ro-
peiitnntp.-ople bowed their heads to the
flag, and renewed their n!lcglan- to
tho Government of tho United States,
then it was that pretended patriots ap
peared befbro tho nation, nnd began to
prato nbout tho thousands of lives nnd
millions or treasure sacrificed iu the
suppression of tho Rebellion.
They havo slnco prcslstently soguht
to Inllamo tho prejudices engendered
between tho sections to retard the res
toration of peace and harmony, nnd by
every means to keep open and exposed
to tho poisonous brcathof party passion
tho terriblo wounds of n four years' war
They havo prevented tho return of
peace anil tho restoration of tho Union,
lu every way rendered delusive tho
put poses, promises and pledges by
which tho army was marshalled, trea
bon rebuked and rebellion cruslio I, and
mado tho liberties of tho people and tho
rights and powers of tho President ob
jects or constant attack. They havo
wrested from tho President his Consti
tutional power of supremo command
or tho army-and navy. They havo des
troyed tho strength anil efficiency or
tho Executlvo Department by making
subordinate officers Independent of and
able to clefs their chler, Thoy havo at
tempted to placo tho President under
tho power or a bold, defiant treacherous
Cabinet officer. Thoy havo robbed tho
Executlvo of tho prerogatl vo of pardon,-
rendered null-Aim void acts of clemency

vests tho judicial power of tho United
States in ono supremo Court, who
jurisdiction shall extend to all eases
trising under this Constitution and tlio
laws of the United States. Encourag
ed by this promise or a refuge from ty
ranny, a citizen of tho United States,
who, by the order of a military com
mander, given under thosanctiou of a
cruel and deliberato edict of Congress,
had been denied tho constitutional
rights of liberty of conscience, freedom
of tho press, and of speech, personal
freedom from military arrest, of being
held to answer for crime only on pres
entment and indictment, on trial of
jury, of tho writ of habeas corpus and
protection of civil and constitutional
government a citizen thus deeply
wronged appeals to tho Supremo Court
for tho protection guaranteed him by
the organic law ol tho land. At onco a
fierco nnd excited majority, by tho
ruthless hand of legislative power,
stripped tho ermine from tho Judges,
transferred the swortl of justlco to tho
general, and remanded tho opprosvd
citizen to a degradation and bondajo
worso than death.
It will also bo recorded as one of tlu
marvels of tho times when a party
claiming for Itself a monopoly of con
sistency and patriotism, and boasting
too, of Us unlimited sway, ondoivnreil
by a costly and deliberato trial to im
peach ono who defended the Con
stitution ahd tho Union, not only
throughout tho war of the rebellion, hut
during his wholo term of office as Chief
Magistrate, buUit tho samo timo could
find no warrants or means nt their com
mand to bring to trial oven the chief uf
tho rebellion. Indeed, tho remarkable
failures In his caso were so often;repeat-
ed that for propriety sake, if for no oth
er reason it becainout last necesnry lo
extend to him an unconditional pardon.
What moro plainly than this illustrates
tho extremity qf party management
anil Inconsistency on tho ono hand, and
if faction, vlndictiveucns and intoler-
unco on tno otl.err l'diriousm win
hardly bo encouraged, when In such u
ecord It sees that its instant reward
may bo tho most virulent arty abiiso
iml obloquy, if not attempted disgrace.
Instead of seeking to make treiisoii
odious it would In truth seem t huvo
been their purposo rather to make Hid
defense of tho Constitution and Union
a crime and to punish fidelity to an oi.ih
of office, ir counter to party dictation,
by all tho means at their command.
Happily for tho peaco of tlio country,
tlio war has determined against the as
sumed power of tho States to withdraw
at pleasure from tho Union. Tho insti
tution of slavery also found its destruc
tion in a rebellion commenced in Us in
terests. It should bo homo iu inn 1,
however,tlmt tho war neither Iinpulivtl
nor destroyed tlioConstlluttym ; but, on
tho contrary preserved its existence ai d
made apparent its real power ami
enduring strength. All the rights
granted to tlio States, or reserved to Uio
people, therefore, tiro intact. Among
thoso rights Is that of tho people of
each Stato to declare tlio qualifications
or their own Stato electors.
It Is now assumed that Congress can
control this right, which can never bo
taken away from tho States without
impairing tho fundamental principles
of tho government Itself. It Is neccssa-
to tho existence of tho State, us well as
to tho protection of tho liberties of tho
people for tho right to select tho elec
tors in whom tho political power of tho
Stato shall bo lodged involves tho right
of tho 8tato to govern Itself. When de
prived of this prerogative, tho States
will havo no power worth retaining.
All will bo gone, nud they will bo sub
Jected to tho arbitrary will of Congress.
Tho government will then bocentra'lz
ed, If not by tho passage of laws, then
by tho adoption, through partisan In
fluence, of an amendment directly In
conflict with tho original designs of tho
Constitution. This proves how neces-
