A PARTING SLAP AT THE RUMP. Andrew Johnson's Farewell Address. , . .. . , i To the lJeople of the United Stotet : The robo of ofllc-e, by ooiiatilulionul limiuiion, tbi day fulls from my ehouiilem, to ba immadiutoly awiatnod by my wuocesBor. Kor bitn tbo for Uiaranc and co-operation ot the Amerioan peoplo in all bit efforts to adminiBter tliegovornmont within the pale of Federal Constitution, nro in coruly iiiToked. Without ambition to gratily, party ends to subserve, or personal quurrcla to mvenjro at tbe aacnlice of tho peace and wolliiro ot the courtiy, my eurnoat desiro is, to sec the Constitution, aa defined and limited by the fathers of the republic, aiun recognized and obeyed as the supreme law ot the land, and I lie whole eoplu, North, South, Last and West, happy ond primcruus under its wise provisions. lu nnrrvtideritirr the high office to which 1 wan called lour years ago, al a memorable and terrible trims, it i my privilepe, I trust, to say to the people oi the United State a few parting words in vindication of an otlitml course so ccnseli-esly assiiiled aud aspersed by political leaders, to whose plans and wishes my policy to rcstoru the Union haabeen obnoxious. In a period of difficulty and turmoil, almost without prccodetit in tbe his tory of any people, consequent upon the closing scenes of a great rebellion, and the assassination of the then President, it wus, perhaps, too much on my part to expect of devoted par tisans, who rodu on tba wave of excitement, which at that time swept all before them, that degree of tolera tion and magnanimity which I sonht to recommend and enforce, and which 1 believe in good time would have advanced us infinitely further on the roiul to permanent ptace aud prosper ity than we have thus fur attained. Doubtlei-8, had I at the commencement of my term of oflite, unhesitatingly lent itM powers, or perverted them to purposes and plans outside of tho Con stitution, and become an instrument to schemes of confiscation, and of general and oppressive disqualifica tions, I would hhve been hailed, as all that was true, loyal, and discerning, aa the reliable bead of a party, what ever I might have been. As tho Exe cutive of tho nation, unwilling, how ever, to accede to propositions of extremists, ana bound to adhere at every personal hazard to my oath to defend the Constitution, I need not, perhaps, be surprised al having met the fate of others whose only reward fur upholding constitutional right and law, have been tho conscioiiMicss ol having attempted to do their duty, and tho calm and unprejudiced judg ment of history. At the time a mys terious Providence assigned to me the office of Pioeideiit, I was by the terms ol tlio Constitution, the Commander io Chief of nearly a milliou of men underarms. One of my first acts was to disband und restore to tho vocations of civil life, this iinuieiisj boat, und to divest myself, so far as I could, of the unparalleled powers then incident to the oTlicc and the times. Whether or rot in this step I was right, and how fur deserving tho ap probation of tho peoplo, all can now, on reflection, judge, when reminded of the ruinous condition of iublic liuhlic affair, thai mast hve resulted from the continuance in the military servico 01 suui a vast 11 u in tier ol men. Iho close of our domestic conflict found the army eager to distinguish itself in a new field, by an cITort to punish European Intervention in Mexico; by many it was believed and urged thai, aside from tho assumed justice of the Iiroceeiling, a foreign war, in which ioth sides would cheerfully unite to Vindicate (ho honor id the national flag, and further Illuslinio the national prowess, would bo tho surest and speediest, way of awukciiing nulional enthusiasm, reviving devotion to the Union, and occupying a force con cerning which grave doubts existed as to its willingness, nlicr lour years ol active campaigning, at onco lo return to tho pursuits of peuco. Whether these speculations wero Iruoorfulso, it will bo conceded that they existed, and that the predilections of tho army, wore, for the timo being, in tho direc tion indicated. Taking advantage of this feeling, it would havo been easy, as the Commander-in-Chief of the Army and Navy, and with all (he power and patronage of the Presidential office at mv ilisiiosal. to turn tba eonenniml a.1 military strength of (he nation agninst r rench .interference in Mexico, and to iiiuiigurlc u movement which would We find that, in the time which has have been received with favor by the since elapsed, human nature and cxl uiililary and a large portion of tho gencies in government liave not grent reonle. It is nroiier in this connei- ! Iv changed. Who. fow veur nast. lion that I should refer to the almost unlimited additional powers tendered ' hv supposed that, In a brief period legislative attempts to exerciso this to tho Executive by tho measures of bitter exporiouce, everything de-1 power in favor of party adhoreut. relating to civil rights and Iho Freed-1 manded in the name of military einer-1 They have t onspired to change the men's iWcaii. Contrary lo most pi e . gency or dictated by capiico, would i system of our government by profur cedents in the experiences of ptihlic i come to Is? considered as mere matter I ring charges agitinsl tho President in men, the power thu placed within j of course ? The conscription, con 8 a- j the lorm of articles cf impeachment, my grasp wero declined, as in viola-1 cnlion, loss of personal liberty, tha! and contemplating before hearing and Hon id Iho Constitution, dangerous to' the liberties of the peoplo, and tending to aggravato rather than lessen the discord nnlutnl y rcsullirg from our civil war. With a largo army and augmented authority, it would have been no dilri- cult task to direct, at pleasure, the deslinic of the Republic, and .o ninko set ur my continusnce in the highest officw known to our law. Let the people, whom 1 am addrefing from the Presidential chair during liie clos ing hours of a laborious term, consider ihow different would have lKcn thoir present condition bad I yielded lo the RIP i NOT MEN. havo not been Ineroased by my acta, and other Rnd perhaps thousands or ton of thousands of lives sacciticed to vision of false glory. ' lt 'Vannot, therefore, be charged that my ambition has been of that ordinary or criminal kind wbh.h, to the detrtment of tlio people's rights and liberties, ever seeks to graap more And nnwdrfrantod powers, and to- ac complish Its purposes, paudcrs, too often, urprrpular prejudices and party aims. W hut; then, have been thn as-pirationt-wbioh' guided mc in my ofll cial act t Those acts need not at this time 'an elaborate explanation.

I cannot bo censured if my efforts havo been iinjieded in the interest of party faction, and if a policy which was intended lortasMirenridcmcilinto the people of both sections of the country, wus made the occasion of inflaming and ilividiiii; still further those who went only recently in arms j gainst each other, yet as individuals und citizens, were sinecrclv desirous, as I shall ever believe, of burying all hostile feeling in the grave ok the past. The hitler war wa waged on the part of the government to vindicate the Constitution and savo tbe Union, and if 1 bavo erred in trvingto bring about a more eccdy and lasting peace, to extinguish heart burnings aud enmi ties, and to prevent troubles in tho South, w hich, retarding material pros perity in that region, injuriously af lectcd the whulo country, 1 am quit content to rest my case with the more deliberate judgment of the people, and, as 1 huve already iotimated, with tbe distant future. The wur, all must remember, was a stupendous and deplorable mistake. Neither side understood the other, and had this simple fact and it con clusions been kept in view, all that was needed was accomplished by the acknowledgment of the terrible wrong and the expressed biller feeling and earnest endeavor at atonement shown and full iu the prompt ratification of Constitutional Amendment by the Southern Stale at the close of the war. Not accepting war a a con fessed false step on the part of thoso who iuaugurated' it, wa an error which now only time can cure, and which even at this late date we should endeavor to palliate. Experiencing, moreover, as all have done, tho Iright ful cost of arbitrament by the sword, let us io the futuro cling closer than ever to the Constitution as our only safeguard. It is to he hoped that not until the burden row pressing upon us with such fearful weight aro re moved, will our pooplo forget tho leg eon of war; and that, remembering them, from whatever cause, peace botwecu section aud Slate tuny bo perpetuated.

The Constitution evidently conlemplHtcs tli u'. when a bill is ro turned, with thuPresidont'sobjeciions, it will be calmly reconsidered by Con gress. Such, however, has not boon tho practice under Iho present party rule. It has becoino evident that mun who rinssabill under imrtisun liifJu-1 ence, are not likely, through patriotic motives, to admit their error, und thereby weaken their own organiza tions by solemnly confessing it under an ofiicml oath. Piide of cpinrrm, if nothing olsc, bus intervened and prcvcnLcd a culm and dispassionate reconsideration of a bill disnpproved by the Executive. Much aa I vcnemle the Constitution, it must t admitted that this condi tion of ull.iiio bus developed a delect which, under the atgiycsoive tenden cy of tlio legislative deportment of it u nvci-ihrmv fi mm. liimi.rsr l.n I remedied without disturbing the hur- should tomimt on the ifihabiunu o executive i.rancii in the goTcmrrna. mony of the Ui.trumeut.

If its constitutionality ahull bo declared by that tribunal, it (mould then brooms a law ; but if the decision is olberwise, it should lull, without power id Congress to re-enact and make it valid. In case In which the veto rests upon hasty and inconsider ate legislation, And in which no con stitutional question I involved, it woukl not change th fundamental law, for in uoh caso no permanont evil can bo incorporated into the Fed eral system. It is cbvious that, with out such an amendment, the govern ment, as it existed under the Consti tution prior to th rebellion, may be wholly subverted or overthrown by a two-thirds majority in Congres. It is not, therefore, difficult to see how easily and how rapidly tb people may loose shall 1 not aay have lost their liberties by an unchecked and uncon trollable majority in the law-making power, and whoa once deprived of their rights, bow powerloss they are to regain them. Let as look for a moment at tho history of tho majority tn Congre., which bus acted in such utter disre gaid of tbo Constitution, while public attention has been carefully and con stantly turned to the past and expia ted sin of the South. The servant of the people in h it'll places have bold ly betrayed thoir trust, frirokcn their oaths of observkneo to the "Constitu tion, and undoimined the very foun dations of liberty, justice And good government. When the rebellion wa being suppressed by the volunteered services of patriotic soldiers, amid the dangers of the battle-field, these men crept, without question, Into place and iiowcr In tho national council.

Tht Constitu tion reals the judicial power of tbe United State in on Supreme Court, whose jurisdiction thull extend to all cases arising under this Constitution and the luws of the United Stales. Encourfged by this pvomiso of a ref uge from tyranny, a citizen of the United State, who, by the order ot a military commander, given under the sancllou oi a cruel and deliberate edict I of Congress bad been denied the con stitutional rights or liberty or con science, freedom of th pres, and of speech, personal freedom from military arrest, of being held to answer for crime only on presentment and indict ment, on trial of jury, of th writ of hal'tat corpus and protection of civil and constitutional government a cili ron thus deeply wronged appeals to the Supreme Court for the protection guaranteed him by tbe organ io law of the land. At once a fierce and excited majority, by the ruthless hand of legis lative power, stripped tho ermine from the judge, transferred, tlio sword of 'justice to the general, and remanded mc oppressed ciuieu aoa acgrauauou and bondage worse than death. It will also be recorded as one of the marvels of the time that a party claiming for ilsolfa monopoly ol con sistency and patriotism, and 'boasting, loo, of it unlimited sway, endeavored by a costly and deliberate trial to im peach one who do leaded the Constitu tion and the Union, notnnly through out the war of the rebellion, but during hi whole term of office as Chief Magistrate, but at the sanio time could find no warrants or mean at their command Io bring to trial oven tlio chief of the rebellion. Indeed, the remarkable failures in his case were so oiten repeated tliat, for propriety sake, if for no other reason, it became al last necessary to extend lo him an unconditional pardon. What more plainly than this illustrate the extremity of party mnacoinnt and inconsistency on tho ouo hand, and of11'"1 rr,iDr0 cesigesiion of the lunrr faction, vindictive! and intolerance.

It id neces ssry to tho existence of the Slates, a w ell as to tbo protection of the liber ties of th peoplo, for the right to select the elector in whom the politi cal power of the States shall be lodged involves the right of tho State to gov ern itself.
