THE PRESIDENT AND RESTORATION Visit from a Virginia Delegation. What the President Said to Them. An Important Exposition of His Policy WAsarmcrox, Feb. 10.—This afternoon a committee from the Senate and House of Delegates of the State of Virginia called - upon the President for the, purpose of pre senting him with resolutions adopted by the General Assembly of Virginia. The following named gentlemen constituted the Committee: From the Senate—Messrs. E. F. Keon, A. J. Gray and Dale Carter. From the House of Delegates—Messrs. John B. Baldwin, James Marshall, P. R. Gratten, A. G. Pendleton and Wm. T. Joynes. They are mostly gentlemen of acknow ledged ability, and, it is claimed, fully re present the State geographically and politi cally being from North, South, East and WeseVirginia, and of every shade of past and present politics. James Marshall, a venerable looking gen tleman, is a nephew of the celebrated Chief Justice of that name. Marshall, Gratten and Judge Joynes are among, the ablest lawyeta of the State. , Address of Mr. Baldwin. Mr. Baldwin, Speaker of the House of Dele gates, as Chairman of the Committee, pre sented the resolutions and delivered the following addiess on behalf of the Com mittee: Mr.. President—We are a committee of Senators and Delegates, sent to present to you, in person certain resolutions which have received the unanimous approbation of the General Assembly of Virginia. We come as representatives sent by one of the States of this Union, to confer with our Con stitutional President in regard to matters affecting the common good, and therefore of interest to all the States and all the people. We come to you, Mr. President, for the reason that you recognize our common in terest in the Government under which we live, and because thus far we have been de nied the constitutional means of communi cation •by which other States and other people make known their opinions, pur poses and feelings in the councils of the nation. In declaring that the people of Virginia and their representatives accept and abide by the results of the late con test, and that they intend in good faith to meet all the obligations thereby incurred, the General As sembly expresses a sentiment and a pur pose which have been uniformly recog nized by our people individually and in masses and in regard to which there is no hesitation or division in all Virginia. Chief among the results thus accepted is the universal conviction that the union of these States is an established and enduring fact, and that the whole fixture of our people is indissolubly bound up for weal or woe with the success or failure of the Govern ment of the United States. We recognize that Government as our Government; its Constitution as our Constitution; the duties which it promises are our rights. Another great result alike ac cented by our people is the final over throw of the institution of slavery. This has been completed by a Constitutional Amendment, the binding force of which is universally admitted; for, although we were not represented in the Congress by which it was proposed, the failure to be so represented was of our own choice. The condition of the freedmen among us, and the policy to be adopted with regard to them, will be recognized by you as calling for the exercise of the highest faculties of the statesman and the best feelings of the Christian philanthropist. The General Assembly of Virginia is en gaged earnestly in the consideration of these subjects, and in anticipation of the results of their labors, we can only say that whatever policy may be adopted will be addressed in good faith and with kind feeling to the improvement of the physical, intellectual and moral condition of our freedmen. You can understand and will readily believe that the feelings of our peo ple towards these freedmen are those of kindness, sympathy and good will,. and that to treat them with harshness or injus tice is opposed as much to our feelings as it is to our interests and our sense of right. The policy pursued by you, Mr. President, toward Virginia, and other States in like condition, has its strong foundation in broad and comprehensive views of constitutional right and natural policy, and must look f its ultimate success upon the conservative sense of justice of the people of all the States. It is due, however, to you and to our peo ple to assure you that when our General Assembly declare the universal approval of that policy by the people of Virginia, they express what each one of this com mittee here present knows to be a living proof. - It happens that your position places you between us and a threatened danger, and the General Assembly have but given voice to the real feelings of our people when they tender to, you the warmest thanks of Vir ginia for the firm stand you have taken against the facility with which it is proposed to change the fundamental law. We would not, however, claim as the only or even the chief merit of the course you are taking, that it affords to us protection in a time of trouble. It is as a defender of the general Constitution that you deserve and command the confidence and support of the people of the United States; and it will be hereafter remembered as your highest claim to the character of a republican statesman that, under all the trying circumstances by which you are surrounded, you have not only proclaimed the Constitution of the United States to be the supreme law of this land, but have defended it alike from violation and from innovation. Response of the President. The President—ln reply, gentlemen, to the resolutions you have just presented to me, and the clear and forcible and concise remarks which you have made in explana tion of the position of Virginia, I shall not attempt to make a formal speech, but simply enter into a plain conversation in regard to the condition of things in which we stand. As a premise to what I may say, permit me, first, to tender you my thanks for tlds visit, and next to express the grad . fication I feel in meeting so many intelli gent, responsible and respectable men of Virginia bearing tome the sentiments which . have been expressed in the resolutions of your Legislature and in the remarks accom panying them. They are, so far as they refer to the Constitution of the country, the sentiments and the principles embraced in that charter of the Government. The pre servation of the Union has been from my entrance into pdblic life one of my cardinal tenets. At 'the very incipiency of the rebellion, I set my face against the dissolution of th Union of the States. I do not make, this allusion for the purpose of bringing up anything which has transpired, which may be regarded as of .an unkind or un pleasant character, but I :believed then, as I believe now and as you.have most unmis takably tndicated, „ that the, security and the protection of the rights of all the people were to be found in the Irtilon,.that we were certainly safer in the Union than we were out of it. ;Upon this conviction based my' opposition to tbe efforts which were made to destroy the 'Union.. I have continued these efforts ? "notwiths6riding the perils' tough which I have passed, and you are not unaware the trial has teen a severe one, When opposition to the the came from - one section of- - , the country, and= that the section in which my :life [had been passed, and with which my interests were identi fied, I stood, as I stand .now, contending for the Union ' and asseverating that the oest and surest way to obtain our rights and to protect our interests was to remain in the Union, under the ' protection of the Consti tution. The ordeal through which we have passed during the, last four or five years demon strates most conclusively that that opinion was right, and to-day, after the experiment has been-made, and has failed, after the de monstration has been most conclusively afforded that this Union cannot be dis Solved, that it was not designed to be dissolved, it is gratifying to me to meet gentlemen asin telligent and as responsible as yourselves, who are willing and anxious to accept and do accept the terms laid down in the Consti tution and obedience to the laws made in pursuance thereof. We were at one period separated; the separation was to me pain ful in the extreme; but now, after having gone through a struggle in which the pow ers of the Government have been tried, when we have: swung around to a point at which we meet to agree, and we are willing to unite our efforts for the preservation of the Government which I believe is the best in the world, it is gratifying to me to meet you to-day, standing upon common ground, rallying, around the Constitution and, the Union of those States, the preservation of which, as I conscientiously and honestly believe, will result in the promotion and advancement of this people. I repeat, I am gratified to meet you tO day, expressing the principles and an nouncing the sentiments to which you have given utterance, and I trust that the occa sion will, long be remembered. I have no doubt that your intention is to carry out and comply with every single principle laid down in the resolutions you have submit ted. I know that some are distrustful, but I am of those who have confidence in the jttdgment, in the fntegrity, in the intelli gence, in the virtue of the great mass of the American people, and, having such confi dence, I am willing to trust them, and I thank God we have not yet reached that point where we have lost confidence in each other. The spirit of the Government can only be preserved—we can only beeome prosperous., and great as:a people—by mu tual forbearance and confidence. Upon that faith and that confidence alone can the Go vernment be successfully carried on. On the cardinal 2principle of representation to which you refer, I will make a single remark.: That principle is inherent. It constitutes one of the fundamental elements of this Government. The representatives of the States and of the loyal people should have the qualifications prescribed by the Consti tution of the United States, and those qual ifications must unquestionably imply loyalty. He who comes as a representative having the qualifications prescribed by the Constitution to fit him to take a seat in either of the deliberative bodies which con stitute the National Legislature must neces sarily, according to the intendment of the Constitution, be a loyal man, willing to abide by and devoted to the Union and the Constitution of the States. He cannot be for the Constitution, he cannot be for the Union, he cannot acknowlege obedience to all the laws, unless be is loyal. When the people send such men in good faith they are entitled to representation through them. In going into the recent rebellion or in surrection against the United States we erred, and in returning and resuming our relations with the Federal Government I am free to say that all the responsible po sitions and places ought to be confined dis tinctly and clearly to men who are loyal. If there were only five thousand loyal men in a State, or a less number, but sufficient to take charge of the political machinery of the State, those five thousand men, or the lesser number, are entitled to it if all the rest should be otherwise inclined. I look upon it as being fundamental that the exer cise of political power should be confined to loyal men, and I regard that as implied in the doctrines laid down in these resolutions and in the eloquent address by which they have been accompanied. I may say, furthermore, that after having passed through the great struggle in which we have been engaged, we should be placed upon much more acceptable ground in re suming all our relations to the General Go vernment, it we presented men unmistaka bly and unquestionably loyal to fill the places of power. This, being done, I feel that the day is not far distant (I speak con fidently in reference to the great mass of the American people) when they will determine that this Union shall be made whole, and the great right of representation in the coun cils o 1 the nation be acknowledged. Gen tlemen, that is a fundamental principle. "No taxation without representation" was one of the principles which carried us through the Revolution. This great princi ple will hold good yet; and if vt'e but per form our duty; if we but comply with the spirit of the resolutions presented me to-day, the American. people will maintain and sustain the great doctrines upon which the great Government was inaugurated. It can be done, it will be done; I think that if the. eftbrt be fairly and fully made with forbear ance, and with prudence, and with discre tion and wisdom, the end is not very far dis tant, It .seems to me apparent that from every consideration the bestlpolicy which could be adopted at present, would be a restoration of these States, and of the government upon correct principles. We have some foreign difficulties, but the moment it can be an nounced that the union of the States is again complete—that we have resumed our career of prosperity and greatness—at that very instant almost all our foreign difficul ties will be settled; for there is no power upon the earth which will care to have a controversy or a rupture with the .have of the United States under such cir cumstances. If these States be fully re stored the area for the circulation of the national currency, which is thought by some to be inflated to a very great extent, will be enlarged, the number of persons through whose hands it is to pass will be increased, the quantity of commerce in which it is to be employed as a medium of exchange will be enlarged, and then it will begin to approximate what we all desire, a specie stanuard. If all the States were restored, if peace and order reigned throughout the land, and all the industrial pursuits, all the avocations of peace were again resumed, the day would not be vexy far distant when we should put into the commerce of the world $250,000,000 or $300,000,000 worth of cotton and tobacco, and the various products of the Southern States, which would constitute, in part, a basig of this currency. Then, instead of the cone being itr..erted, we should reverse the position, and put the - base of the bottom, as it ought to be, and the currency of the country would rest on, a sound and enduring basis. And' surely that is a result which is calculated to . promote" the interests, not only of onesection, but of •the whole country from one extremity to the other. indeed, I look;upon the restoration of these States as the thing : indispensable to.all our greatness. Gentlemen'T know . nothing farther that I could say in the expressfon. of my, feelin,ga on this occasion—and they are not affected a more thud() add that" .•I shall continue in the same line of policy, which I punned from the commencementof the rebellion to the present period.. biy efforts have been to preserve' .the union" of the States. .I :have. never, for a single moment entertained the opinion that_a State could withdraw from the Union Of RS '6wri will: 'The attempt was made. It has failed. I continue to Pursue the same line of policy which has been my constant guide, I. was against THE DAILY EVENING BULLETIN: PiIILAPELYRIA, MONDAY; FE-1311 dissolution . - , 'Dissolntion was atlempted• 'it has failed, and now I cannot take the posi tion that a State which attempted to secede is out of the Union when I contended all the time that it ,could not go Mit, and that it never has been out. . I cannot be forced into that position. Hence, when the Stites and the people shall have complied with- their- require ments of the Government, , I shall .be in favor of their resuming their former relit lions to this Government in. all respects. do not intend to say anything personal; but you know as well as I do that at the,begin ning of the recent gigantic struggle between the different sections of the country there were extreme men South and there were ex treme men North. I might Make use of a homely figure which is sometimes as good as any other, even, in the illustrations of great and important questions, and say that it has been hammer at one end of the line and anvil at the other. . - - - And this great Government, the best the world ever saw. was kept upon the anvil, and it was hammered before the rebellion, and it has been hammered since the rebel lion, and there seems to be a disposition to continue the hammering until the Govern ment shall be destroyed. I have opposed that system always, and I oppose it now. The Government, in the assertion of its powers and the maintenance of the princi ples of Constitution, has taken hold of one extreme, and with the strong arm of phy sical power has put down the rebellion. Now, as we swing around the circle of the Union, with a fixed and unalterable deter- mination to stand by it, if we find the coun terpart or the duplicate of the same spirit that played to this feeling and these persons at the South, this other extreme.. which stands in the way, must get out of it, and the Government must stand unshaken and unmoved on its basis. This Government must be preserved. I will only say, in conclusion, that I hope all the people of this country, in good faith and in the fullness of their hearts, will, upon the principles which you have enun ciated here to-day, of the maintenance of the Constitution, and the preservation of the Union, lay aside every other feeling for the good of our common country, and, with uplifted faces to Heaven, swear that our gods and our altars, and all shall sink in the dust together, rather than this glorious Union shall not be preserved. [Great ap plause.] I am gratified to find the legal sentiment of the country developing and manifesting itself in these expressions; and, now that the attempt to destroy government hat. failed at one end of the line, I trust we shall goon, determined to preserve the Unton in its original purity against all opposers. I thank you, gentlemen. for the compliment you have paid me, and I respond most cor dially to what has been said in your resolu tions and address, and I trust in God that the time will soon come when we can meet tinder more favorable auspices than we do now. Mr. Baldwin—Mr. President, as an as surance that we represent the sentiment of the State, i beg leave to introduce to you the members of the Committee, and tt name the parts of the State from which they come, in order that you may be certitiee that this is a fair representation of ail nen: of Virginia. I introduce to vou Mr. Keen_ the Senator from Spottsylvania; Mr. Joyna, the delegate from Petersburg; Mr. Carter, Senator from the county of Russell; Mr. Marshall, delegate from the county of Fau quier; Mr. Gray, Senator from the county of Rockingham; Mr. Pendleton delegate from the county of Giles- Mr. Gratten, dele gate from the city of Richmond. We claim this to be a fair and equally distributed representation of the people of Virginia. The gentlemen named, as their name were mentioned, stepped forward and shook the President by the hand. The President added—l am happy to meet you, gentlemen. As I said to another dele gation the other day, I have no ambition and no object beyond the restoration of thi , Government. I feel that lam in a position where I can afford to do right. I have occu pid during my career many different posts in this Government. I started at one of the humblest cabins in the country, and have passed through the State Legislature, the Gubernatorial chair, both Houses of Con gress, the Vice-Presidency of the United States, to the position which I now occupy. The climax, the acme to the summit of my ambition has been fully reached— yea, more than reached. If now I can only arrive at a point at which thes- States are all restored, each having the representation in the national coun cils, with the Union restored, so that we cat, once more proclaim peace and good will among the people of the United States, i' will be to me a happy day. I care not what may be said in taunt or jeer; I care not what may be insinuated; but I tell you that when ever I shall have reached that point, the measure of my ambition will have been filled and more than filled. I have no ob ject beyond it. Oh, how proud and gratify ing it would be to me to retire from this place, feeling and knowing that I had been instrumental in consummating this great end. [Great applause.] The delegation then left the President's room, after each delegate again shook Pre sirisnt Johnson by the hand. : • 11 1. 1 - ` -I. I I "z• PATENT SHOULDER SEAM SHIM MANUFACTORY.
