Sir : tbaplt you for the cordial invita.
tion of the time honored Society of Tam
many, to participate with theta in the
celebration of the approaching auniversa.
ry of our. National Independence.
The national tone and patriotic spirit of
the invitation meet my hearty: approval.
They are indications of a growing public
sentiment, whieh, now, that the bitter
strife of civil war has ceased, requires a
renewal of the pursuits of peace, a return
to the Constitution of our fathers, rigid
adherence to its principles, increased rev
erence for its obligations; a restored, in
vigorated permanent Union; and a frater
nity of feeling that shall make us, as a
people, one and indissoluble. There can
be, for the patriot, no higher duty, no no
bler work, than the, obliteration of the
passions and prejudices which, resulting
from our late sanguinary conflict, have
retarded reconciliation, and prevented
that complete restoration of all the states
to their constitutional relations with the
Federal Government, which is essential
to the peace, unity, strength and pros
perity of the nation.
Regretting that, my public duties will
not permit me to be present at your cele
bration, I am, very respectfull, yours,
ANDREW JOHNSON.

Ybrk: "
ha d
Stn t— have the haver to receive
the invitation of the Tammany society. for
the celebration of, the approachin g :Fount;
of July.
I am highlyipleased with the form of
the invitation. I like the motto which is
placed at its bead, "The Union must and
rhall he preserved." I like the vignette
xi Lich illustrates I like the associated
hues with which it is colored, namely--y
-t he red white and-blue: I like the tem
ple of liberty based upon the rock'of the
Goostitution, 'andrprOtected by the eagle
of the .American continent. 1' like the
ships and raifroads, indicative of-prosper
ity and progress. I like the significant
conjunction adates,ll76 and 1666—a pe
riod of ninety years.—Why, in looking at
these figures, we-almost feel - assured, that
our Republic' bas a life of leaqt one cen
tury. Alas! how many republics have
been shorter lived 1 I would have had
the flag of. the Union, which is on the
right, present in its azure field, only the
thirteen original States; but I 'especially
delight in the flag which is on the left'
hand,' and in whose enlarged field-twenty
three stars are blazing which have come
out. firim the deep cerulean within the
past ninety years, while the original thin
teen starsyet remain -in their ancient place,
all their morning Itistre undiminished.
I have hadeomedifferenees, in mytime,
with the Tammany Society, but I long
ago forgot their' alli , when 1 retailed the
fact that the Society has never once fail
ed to observe and honor the anniversary
of National Independence ; and the fur
ther fact :that during the recent civil war
the Tammattki Society sent its sons to
fight for the Union, and with unswerving
rimpported the Federal
Government is 551/01? with sedition.
In vaeiref these 'factiii-_-4nd of the obble
princlifqs now avoweiLrhailthef Tam
many--Soeiery''as :a : truerpvion •League.
I rejoice wat Ote - Societi that - the con
flict of irms,bas.ceased;.that the rebellion
has been- crashed ; that . the' authority of
the. GoNernment.baa 4teen vindicated, and
that the flag of the Union now floats tri
umphantly over every foot of national
dOniain. On the other hand, I mourn
with - the Society that the perfect Union
given tophby our patriotic • forefathers
has not yet been entirely restored; that
eleViiirseVeieign States are denied repre
sentation in ibe Federal Congress, and
are not.reopgnizedzaa
.coordinate I:farts in
the Vaiitniiil Le . gielattire. How strange
all this ! We have killed disunion out
right, and have killed African Slavery
with it, and
,Yet we are not completely
reunited.'
-
If I did tot feel assifted that the Amer
ican people cannot suffer' sti'great and fa
tal a soleeisnit to , continue ;. I• should, say,
as many others fle, , tbat we •are at a cris
is. But Ihave unbounded confidence in
the wisdom and virtue of the American
people. It is said in excuse of the denial
of representation, that the States and their
chosen representatives still continue to be
seditious and disloyal. ..I ask, iaTennes
see disloyal ? Is .Arkansaa seditious.?
•Are , tbe , Sennters and Representatives of
tither of those States disloyal ' desire,
Itin this reipecti'that -each of the'two Hou
ses of Congrestrwill apply the sconstitn
ctional test, with all - the improvements of
legislation upon it, and thus admit those
"states and , representatives who are loyal
and rejedt drily those against, whom the
•drime of disloyalty Shall, be est ablished.
I belie 4 'Nvio the Tammany Society,
that the' Union was created to be•perpet
ual, that the statee are equ a l under the
Constitution, that the restoration of the
Union by the xecent. war ought to be ac
knowledged and recognized by all the de
partments of the Federal Government ;
that a spirit of magnanimity and frater
nity should' prevail in all our councils, and
that the South, having accepted of the
leisens of the war, and relinquished the
heresies oe•secession, should, just so far
and so fast as she comes in the attitue of
loyalty, and in the persons of loyal and
qualified reprsentatives, be admitted to
her constitutional representation. •
I want, henceforth and forever, no
North, no South, no East, no West, no
divisions, and no sections and no classes,
but one united and harmonious people.
It will. be impossible for me to attend
the celebration personally. What I have
written I trust satisfy the Society
that, in spirit, I shall always be with them
when they shall be engaged in renewing
and fortifying the ational
I have the honor. to be, Sir, your very

GENTLEMEN :-I have received your in=
vitation, and should be happy to partici
pate with the Tammany Society or Co
lumbian order in celebrating the ap
proaching anniversary of our National
Independence, were I not prevented by
public duties.
To the honor of your Society, it has in
all times and tinder all circumstances, in
war and in peace, been faithful to the Un
ion of the States and the rights of the
States. At no period since its organita-
Lion have its teachings and services been
more required than at the present, when,
the victorious arms of the republic hav
ing suppressed the false theory that the
Union can - be divided by secession, or the
voluntary withdrawal of a statelrbiti its
compelled to encounter the opposite ex
treme 9f compulsory exclusion ' by which
the centralists deny to eleven States The
representation in Congress which is guar
anteed to them by the Constitution.
Tido doctrine of compulsory exclusion
is scarcely less offensive than that of vol
untary. secession. F.sch is fatal to the per
petnity of the Union.
After a long .and exhanstingwar, which
has cost us so , much blood and treasure,'
the country needs repose, that inda.try,
commerce and the arts of peace may re
vive, and friendly relations between the
States and peophi may be re established.
Ftiandly confidence among the people is
to be encouraged, and 11311.4 supersede ha
-1 tred and revenge.- Net portion of the
States of people can be deprived of their
just rights without producing estrange
ment. , .
I respond most sincerely to the correct
and patriotic views expressed in your in
vitation, and regretting my inahility to
be present, with'you, I respectfully sub
mit the following ,sentiment :
The Union of the States, only to be
maintained by a faithful observance of the
rights of thcStates.•- Very respectfully,

A Privileged Class.
On motion of Senator Nesmith, of Ore
gon,, the following amendment to the
army bill was adopted :
"That all officers who have served du
ring the rebellion as volunteers in the ar
mies of the United States, and who have
been or may hereafter be honorably mus
tered out of the volunteer service, shall
be entitled to bear the official title, and
upon-occasions of ceremony to wear the
uniform, of the highest grades they have
held by brevet or other commission in the
volunteer service. In the case of officers
of the regular army, the volunteer rank
shall be entered upon the official regis
ters; provided that this privilege shall not
entitle officers to any pay or emoluments."
What was the necessity of this amend
ment ? We believe a man in this coun
try Can be called Colonel or Captain with
out' the'permission of Congress, and can
wear any clothes'be pleases. Old soldiers
don't need any such' permission to wear
their uniforms or be 'called by their ti
tles. -As this amendment does not men-.
tion the officers of the war of 1812, oethe
Mexican war, are we to infer that they
will not be - entitled to wear their old uot
forms when they see fit to do so ? How
about the enlisted men of the late army ?
They are not mentioned. Are they to be
prohibiteAwearing their uniforms on pub
lic occasfons and being called sergeant or
corporal; by their friends ? We want to
know. The wholething looks like an at
tempt to legiglate officers into a privileg
ed class. Will the men agree to this

: .
SIR :—Your not. of the i 10th instant
i-w as receieed yesterday. I cordially ap
prove.the movement which has been in
.etittited to " sustain the administration in
maintaining, unbroken, the Union ofthe
Statee," and I : recognize iti the call which
you have sent me the principles and views
,by which the administration has been
goVerned.
The attempt made to destroy the na
tional integrity by secession, or the vol
untary withdrawal of a State from the
Union, has been defeated. War has for
ever extinguished the heresy of secession.
On the suppression of the rebellion, meas
ures were promptly commenced to re es-1
tablish those fraternal relations which have
for four years been interrupted. The
policy initiated by President Lincoln to
restore national unity was adopted and
carried forward by President Johnson;
the states which had been in rebellion I
were, under this benign policy, resuming
their legitimate functions; the people had
laid down their arms, and those who had
been in insurrection were returning to
their allegiance;. the Constitution bad
been vindicated and the Union was sup
posed to be restored, when a check was
put upon the progress to national pros
perity thus dawning upon the country,-
On the assembling of Congress all efforts
towards union and nationality became
suddenly paralyzed ; the measures of rec
oncilatiou -which the President had from
the time be entered upon his duties, pur
sued with eminent, success, were assailed,
and their beneficent purpose, to a great
extent, defeated; attempts were made to
impose conditions precedent upon States
before permitting them to exercise their
constitutional rights; loyal Senators and
Representatives from the States which
had been in rebellion were refused admit
tance into Congress, the people were de
nied rightful constitutional representa
tion, and eleven States were and are ex
cluded
from all participation in - the gov
ernment, These proceedings, which con
flict with the fundamental principles on
which ouwhole governmental system is
founded, a e generating and consolidatu,,,-
sectional a imosity,and, if long persisted
• • —• •elie nis
tion. 1 rejoice • therefore in a move...—
which hiesfer its obje4 . _ the- union in one
bond orltive of the people of common
country, and which invites to council and
1 to political action the citizens of every
State and Territory, from the Atlantic to
the Pacific; end from the Lakei to the
Golf. The centralizing theory that the
loyal and qualified Senators and Repre
sentatives from eleven States shall be ex
cluded- from CongresS, and that those
States and the people of those States shall
not. participate in' the government, is.
scarcely 'egg ' repugnant than that of se
cession itself. ' ' .
Propositions to change the Constitution
and unsettle some of the foundation 9r
principles of oar organic law—to change
our judicial system in such a manner as to
destroy the independence of the States by
insiduously transferring to the federal
tribunals all questions relating to the "life I
liberty, and property of the citizen"—to
change the basis of representatiou, which
was one of the difficult and delicate com
promises of the Convention 01 . '1787, when
no States were excluded from reftresentaL
tion—to change the ex i-ting and wisely
adjusted distribution of powers betweep
the different departments of the govern
ment, by transferring- the pardoning pow
er in certain cases from the Executive,
where it properly belongs to Congress or
the legislative branch of the-government,
to which it, does not legitimately pertain
—to incorporate into our Constitution,
which is to stand through all time, a pro
scription of citizens who have erred, and
who are liable to penalties under existing
enactments, by disqualifications, partaking
of the nature of ex post facto laws and
bills of attainder—these propositions or
changes, aggregated as one and called an
amendment to the Constitution, designed
to operate on the people and States which
are denied all representation or -voice in
the Congress which originates them„ are
of a radical, if not revolutionary, charac
ter. These and other proceedings and
the political crisis which they have ten
ded to produce, justify and demand a
convocation of the people by delegates
from all the States and from the whole
country. The President has labored with
devoted assiduity and fidelity to promote
union, harmony, prosperity, and'''happi-
ness among the States and people, but
has met with resistance, misrepresenta
tion, and calumny where he had a tight

The Republican Party.
The Nei' York'Herald, which has been
`the. leading journal elle Republican p*
ty since 1856, when it snpported John C.
Fremont,and which has conspicuous for
its devotion 'to Abraham Lincoln thro%
out his administration, candidly admits
that the Republican party is on its feat
legs. Referring to the call for a'Cobven
tion at Philadelphia, the Herald Says :
" The demoralization of the Republican
party is now so evident that nobody can
affect ignorance of the fact. This call has
torn away the veil of sophistry by which
the Republican politicians have sought to
conceartheir dissensions from the people,
and everybody can now see what a rotten,
disorganized and moribund body the once
powerful Republican party really is.
It will be impossible to go before the
people at the next elections with any of
the old pretences of harmony of this re
markable revelation of discord and antag
onism. The Republican party, like a huge
monopoly, is falling to pieces from its own
corruption. It bas no strength outside of
Congress. In no State election since the
war has it dared to meet the questions at
issue boldly and sincerely. During the
war it dodged all responsibility and palli
ated all offences by pleading the military
r necessity for its continuance in power.—
Since the war it has still talked wildly of
copperheads," "'loyalty," " t4artors,"
and other catcwords to deceive and de
lude the voters. But at lag it has been
broken up by its own members, and the
coming elections will PrcibablY seal its
fate.
When we lookat the present Congress
we behold the Republican party as it; ex
ists in its moral and political degeneracy.
A more corrupt. body than 'this Congress
never disgraced any country. Iris one
immense, concentrated, detestable job
from beginning'to end It is composed
of men who made dishonest, fortunes du
ring the war; of bogus generals, who
killed only their own. men; of -knavish
contractors, who purchased •their seats in
order to continue their robberies of the
Treasury; of raving fanatics, who ought
to be in. Bedlam ; of small politicians,
whose only ambition is to steal enough
money, to build a house; of foolish ?tilos+.
opbers, wholove to air their theortes,but
who have not a single practical` and
of weak-minded members, who are entird

The very few goodT•inencrin It Irre bitt

What a Fire Crabher Did:
The celebration
. of the 4th of. July
seems to be nothing to the juveniles of
the United States without their. pistols
and fire-crackers. It is a day set apart ,
for the explosion of . powder in , a thousand
different shapes. There is a universal li
cense for such things, and all municipal
regulations are for one day set at naUghtu
On Wednesday AbtOth a Chinese fire
cracker exploded in a heap of shavings in
the rear of Cooper's - shop in the City . ,of
Portland. The greater pact of the Ay
was burned, and thousands Of peopin
were left without shellter. „
On the same day there *ere'many fires
throughout th'e coontiy. ifow puny of
these were from 'the cause which led' tia,

few of theta were. • .
There ought to .be a reform in this mat

country w ilia , is not annually endangered
