time so fully occupied with the prepara
tion of smother. veto, • that I xgnewd
him to prepared* ego upon urn
of Ora.. bell UM he declined todo on
the ground of physical disability to un
dergo, at the time, the labor of writing,
but stated his readiness to furnish what
aid might be required to the preparation
of material. for the paper. .
I now peas to another subject. When
on the 15th of April, 1865, the duties or
the President's ogee devolved the .
me,
I fitted a foil Cabinet of seven members,
all of them selected by; Mr.. Lincoln... I
made no Change. On the contrary,- 1
shortly afterwards ratified "'change de
termined ppon by Mr. Lavoie. but not
perfected-at his death, and admitted Lis
appointment, Mr. Harlan, in planed
lir. Usher, who was in eftioe at Mallow.
The great duty of the time was to re
establish Government, law and order
in the lneusstaiLonary States. . Congress
was then Ire.es, and the sudden over
throw of the rebellion required -speedy
action. This grave ZOOM had encased
the attention of Mr. Lincoln in the last
days of his life, end Ms phut aces:ding
to which ltwas to be manageethan been
prepared and was ready for adoption. A
leading feature et that plan was that it
should be carried out by executive au
thority, for,
so far as I have breninfeam
ad, nellherMr. Lincoln nor any mema
her of his Cabinet doubted hie authority
to act or proposed to call an extra ses
sion of Congress to do the work.
The first business tranneteditt Cabi
net alter I became President was, the tin-
Inclebed business of my predecessor. A
plan or scheme of reoonstruction wan
produced, which bad been prepared-for
Mr. Lincoln by Hr. Stanton, -his Seem
tary of War. It was approved - sad et
the earliest moment practicable woo sp.
plied la the form of a proclamation to
the State of North Carolina, and..efter
wards became the bads of action in tarn
for the other State& • •
Upon the examination of Mr. Stanton ;
before' the Impeachment Committee; be
was naked the followingquestiont Did
any one of the Cabinet express a doubt
of the power otthgEsacutivelitaschof
the Government to reorganise State goy
erntrienta which had bees in rebellion
without the Mit or Congeal, Be' an
swered none whatever. I had myself
entertained no doubt of the authority of
the President to take measures' tbrAbo•
organization of the rebel States on the
plan proposed during the vagAlon of
Congress, and'
agreed he the plan
specified bibs procinmatien in. the case
of North Wane.: Thereleperhaps rt e
act of my administration for whch I have
been more denounced than this, It. WAS'
not originated by me. but I shrink from.
no responsibility on that amgnt, for tbe -
Dian approved itself to myjudgment ana
-1 did ant hesitate to starry it into execu
tion. Thus far,emil upon this 'hal policy
there was perfect accord bettesen the
Cabinet and myself, and I saw no noses
otter fora change.
- the President etates the great differ.
once of opinion with Mr. Stanton was
on the District of Columbia suffrage asuL
rooonstructkm bills of Mareb.lBas
vetoes otwhith were oppesed - by the lat
ter, although all the other Cabinet mem
bers supported the President.
Ti. Xreddent continues: I havenow
referred to the genenil grounds upon
whieb the withdrawal - of Mrs Stanton
from the Administration seemed to be
proper.and necessary; but I cannot omit
to state :a special ground, which, If It
stood alone, would vindicate any action.
The sanguinary Mot which- occurred. in
tho city of New Orleans en the 'loth of
August, 1860, justly aroused public In
dignation and public inquiry, not,ohly
as tothose who were engaged Mit, - but
as to those who, more or • less remotely. •
might be held to respensibility for IG
occurrence. I need not remind
the
Se
the -•• the' °flint " which
was mode to fix that responsibility
on the President. The obi:lowa+ 'Veil
ly made, and again and again reiterated,
all through the land, that the President
was warned to time but refused to inter
fere. Dy telegrams from the Lieutenant
Governor end Attorney General of Lon
islena, dated the 27th and 28th of Aug
ust, I was advised that a body of dele
gates, claiming to be a Constitutional
Convention, were about to assemble In
New Orleans; that - the matter was before
the Grand Jury, but that it would be im
possible to execute civil process withont
a riot, and this question was slake&
the military to Interfere to prevent the
process of the Court?" This. question
wee asked ate time when the civil snorts
were in the Mil exercise of their *other

the same ^9th of August was this: "The
