FAREWELL ADDRESS OF PRFSJ.
DENT JOHNSON.
To the People of the Caged Slake :
The robe of office,
by constitutional limi
tation, this day falls from my, shoulders, to be
Immediately assumed by my successor. For
him the forbearance and cooperation of the
American people, in all his efforts to admia-
Ester the government within the pale of the
Federal Constitution, are sincerely Invoked.
Without ambition to gratify, party ends to
subserve, or personal quarrels to avenge, at
the sacrifice of the peace and Welfare of the
country, 'My earnest desire is to see the Con
stitution of the republic again recognized and
obeyed as the supreme law of the land, and
the whole people, North, South, East, and
West,.prosperous and happy under its wise
provision&
In surrendering the high office to which I
was called four years Igo, at • memorable
and torrible crisis, it is my privilege, I trust.
to say to the people of the United States •
few parting words in vindication of an offi
cial course so ceaselessly assailed and aspers
ed by political leaders, to whose plans and
wishes my policy to mstore the Union has
been obaoxious. In a period of difficulty and
tunnel:l. almost without parallel in the history
of any people, consequent upon the closing
scenes of a great rebellion and the assassina
tion of the then President, it was, perhaps.
too much on my part to expect of devoted
.partisans, who tide on the waves of, excite
ment which at that time swept all before
them, that degree of toleration and magna
nimity which I sought to recommend and
enforce, a.id which I believe in good time
would have advanced us Infinitely further on
the road to permanent peace and prosperity
than we have thus far attained. Doubtless,
hid I' t the commencement of my term of
office, unhesitatingly lent its powers or per
perverted them to purl:Kees and plans outside
of the Constitution, and become an instru
ment to a scheme ofrconfiscation and of gen
eral and oppressive disqualification, I would
have been hailed u, all that was true, loyal
atid discerning ; as the :reliable head of a
party, whatever I might have been", as the
Executiveof a nation. Unwilling, however.
to accede.te propositions of extremists, and
bound to obey:at every personal hazard my
oath to defend the Constitution, I neat not,
*dram be surprised at having met the fate
of others, whose only rewards for upholding ,
constitutional rights and laws have been the
consciousness of having attempted to do
their duty, and the calm judgment of history.
At the time that a mysterious Providence
assigned to me the office of President.l was,
by the terms of the Constitution, comma
derrin-chief of nearly a million of toed under
arms. One of my find acts was to disband
and restore to the vocations of civil life' this
immense host, and to divest myself, as far as
I could, of the unparalleled powers then in
cident to the office and the tones. Whether
or not in this step was right, and how 2 -far
deserving of the approbation of alt-the peo
ple, &Bean now, on reflection, judge, when
reminded of the ruinous condition of public
affairs that must have resulted from the con
tinuance in the military service of such a
vast number of men. The close of our do
mestic conflict found the army eager to-dis
tinguish itself in a new field by an effort to
punish European intervention in Mexico.,
By many it was believed mid urged that,
aside from the assumed justice of the pro
ceedings, a foreign war, in which both sides
would cheerfully unite to vindicate the hon
or of the national flag, and further illustrate
the national prowess, would be the surest and
speediest way of awakening national enthu
sham, renewing devotion to the Union and
occupying a force concerning which grave
doubts existed as to its willingness, after four. I
years of active campaigningat once to return
to the put:suits of peace. Whether their t
speculations were true or tithe, it will be con- !
ceded that they existed, and that the predi
lections
of the army were for the time being
in thedirectlon indicated. Taking Advent-
age of-tad feeling, it would have been easy,
as Conatiitirlertin-Chief of the army and I
navy, and with alfae — pearer-and-pauxuage
of the Presidential office at my disposal, to
turn the concentrated strength of the
nation against French intervention in Mail
co, and to inaugurate • movement which
would have been received with favor by ills i
military and a large portion of.the people.
Itis proper in this connection that I should
refer to the almost unlimited additional pow
ers tendered to the 'Executive by the meas
ures relating to the Civil Rights and Freed
men's
Bureau. Contrareto most prreedenta
in the experience of public men, the ppwers
thus placed within my grasp were declined I
as' being in violation at the Constitution,
dangerous to the liberties of the people, and
tending to aggravate rather than lessen the
discords naturally resulting tram our civil
war. With a large army and augmented au
thority it would have been no difficult task '
to direct at pleasure the destinies of the Re
public, and to make sure my continuants in
the highest office known to our laws. Let
the people, Whorii I am addressing from the
Presidential chair during the closing hours
of a laborious term, consider how different
would have been their present condition had
I yielded to the dialling temptation of for
eignsonquest, of personal aggrandizement
and the desire to wield additional power.
Let them, with justice, consider that I have
not unduly magnified my office, the public
burden* have not been increased by my acts,
and perhaps thousands or tens of thousands
of lives sacrificed to• visions of false glory.
It cannot, therefore, be charged that my am
bition has been of that ordinary or criminal
kind which, to the detriment of the peoples
rights and liberties ever seeks to grasp more
and unwarranted power, and, to accomplish
its rposes. panders t o o often to popular
preju pu dices anti party aims. What, then, have
been the aspirations which guided me in my
official acts ?
' Those acts need not at. this time an elabo
rate explanation. They have elsewhere been
comprehensively stated and fbily discussed,
and becomes part of the nation's history.
By them I am prepared to be judged, know- ,
ing that;- however Imperfect, they at least
show to the impartial Mind, that my sole
ambitkin has been to restore the Union of the
States; faiWfully to execute the office of
President ;. end to the best of my altility to
preserve,protect and defend the. Constitution.
I cannot heti-inured it my efforts have been
impeded in the interests of party faction, and
if a policy . which was intended to re-assure
and conciliate the people of both sections of
the country was made the occasion of in
earning and dividing still farther those who
only recently' were In arms against each oth
er, yet as individuals_ and cif tens were sin
cerely desirous, as I shall ever believe, of
burying all hostile feelings in the grave of
the past. The bitter war was Waged on the
part of the govern Meat to vindicate the
Constitution and save the relon ; and if I
have erred in trying to bring shout a more
speedy and lasting peace, to extinguish
heart-burning' and enmities, and to prevent
trouble in the Sash, which, retarding mate
rial prosperity in that region, materially at
hscted the wholecountry, I are quite content
to mat my case with tbetiore deliberate
judgment of the people,arel,ai I hive already
inlinsated,with the.distant future.- The war,
all must remember, was a stupendons and dee
plumbic mistake. Neither' side understood
the other; and, had this simple fact and Its
conclusions been kept in view, all shag was
needed was accomplished by the ackhowt
edpsent of the terrible wrong and the ea
t:km*lo of better. feeling and earnest en
deavor at atonement shown and &it
in Me prompt ratification of constitutional
amendments by the Southern States at the
close of the war. Not accepting the war as a
cookseed false step on the put of those who
kliallenord error which now only
time can cure; and which even at this late
date we should endeavor to palliate, Zap
riencing, moreover` as all have done, the
frighttul cost of the arbitrament of the sword,
let us in the iliture cling closer than ever to
the Constitution as our only safeguard. It Is
to be hoped that not until the burdens nobr
pressing upon us with such tearful weight
are removed will our people Comet the lemons
of the wareand that remembering them,frone
whatever cause. peace between sec,zus and
States may be perpetual.
•
The history of late events in our tlountry,
as well as of th e greatest governments of
ancient and modern tame, tesebes that we
have everything to fear from adeparture
from the letter and spirit of the Constitution,
and the undue ascendancy ofmen allowed-to.
AMMO power in what areconsi&tred desper
ate emergencies.- Sylia,on becoming master of
Rome, at once adopted measures to crush
his enemies and to consolidate the power of
his party. Re established military colonies
throughout Italy ; dep - rived of the fall Ro
man franchise the inhabitants of the Italian
towns who bad opposed his usurpation: con
fiscated their lands and ove them to his cal-
diem ; and conferred citizenship upon a great
number of slaves belonging to those who bad
proscribed him, thus creating at Rome skied
of body-guard for his protection. After hav
ing given Rome over to slaughter and tymp
aned beyond all eumple over those o
to him and the legions, his terrible=
merit of wrong, Sy lia could yet Seel mate in
laying down the ensigns of power ao dread
fully abused, and In mingling freely with the
families and friends of his myriad victims.
The fear which he had inspbed continued
after his voluntary abdication, and even in
retirement his will was law to a people who
had permitted themselves to . be enslaved.
What but a subtle knowledge and conviction
that the Roman people had become change d ,
discouraged and utterly 'broken in ar Xt i i
could have induced this daring assumption?
What but public Indifference to consequen
ces so terrible as to leave Rome open to every
calamity which subsequently betel her, could
have justified the conclusions of the dietakir
And tyrant in his startling expeentietft? We
find that in the time which has since slanted
human nature and exigencies in governments
have not greatly changed. Who, a fit* years
ago, in contemplating our future, could have
supposed that, in a brief period of bitter ex
perience, everything demanded in the name
of military emergency or dictated by caprice
would come to be considered as mere matters
of course! That conscription, confiscation,
loss of personal liberty, and the subjection
of States to military rule and disfranchise
ment, with the extension of the right of
suffrage merely to accomplish party ends,
would receive the passive submission, if not
acquiescence of the people of the republic?
It has been c learly demonstrated by recent
occurrences that encroachments upon the
Constitution cannot be prevented by the
President, however devoted or de/ermined
he may be. That unless the people interpose
there is no power under the Constitution to
check a dominant majority of two-thirds of
the Congress of the United States. An ap
peal to the nation is attended with toormuch
delay td meet emergency ; while, if left free
to ass, the people would correct,. in time,
such evils as might follow legislative-usurpa
tion.
These is danger that this same power which
disregards the Constitution will deprive them
of the right to change their rulers, except by
revolution. We have already seen the juris
diction of the judiciary circumscribed when
it was appratended that the courts would
decide spirt laws having for their sole ob
ject the aufsernacy of party ; while the veto
power iladgied in the Executive by 'the Con
stitution Sor the interest and protection of the
people, sad exercised by Washington and his
successors, has been rendered nugatory by a
Partisan lealiwity of two-thirds in each branch
of the Nations! Legislature. •
The Constitution evidently exiater•R444
that when a bill is returned with the rresi
deat's objections, it will be ca,bnly reconshl
seed by Congress, Such, however, has not
been the practiceluxier the present party
rule. It has become evident that men who
was a bill tinder partisan influences are not
likely through patriotic motives to admit
their error, sod thereby weaken their own
organizations bY solemnly eindessing it an
nex the official oath. Pride of opinion, if
nothing else, has ixtervened and prevented
calm and diVaaalouite reconsideration of - a
bill disapproved by two Executive. hinclow
I venerate the Constitution, it must be ad
mitted that this condition of affairs has de
veloped a defect which, ivi4e r the aggressive
tendency of the Legialatles department of
the government, may readily work its over
throw. It may, however, tie aosedied with
out disturbing the harmony of the•lesSrunient.
The veto power is generally exercised upon
constitutional grounds, and wheneows ,it is
so applied, and the bill returned with the
Executive's reasons for witholding,bis siert
ture, it ought to be immediately certified to
the Supreme Court of the United States for its
decision. If its constitutionalityshall be de
clared by that tribunal, it should' then be
a law. But if the decision is otherwise,
it should fail, without power in Congress to
re-enact and make )t valid. In cases in which
the veto rests upon hasty and inconsiderate
legislation, and in which no constitutional
question is involved, I would not change the
fundamental law, for in such cases no perma
nent evil can he incorporated into the Fede
ral system. It is obvious that without such
en amendment, the government, as It existed,
nnder the Constitution prior to the rebellion,
may be wholly subverted and overthrown by
a two-thirds majority in Congress. it is not,
therefore, difficult to see how easily and how
rapidly the people may lose (shall X not say
—have lost?) their liberties by an unchecked
r%and uncontrollable ority id the lawmak
ing power: and, whe ver deprived of their
rights. bow powerl hey are to regain
them.
Let us turn fora moment to the•history of
the majority in Congress; which has acted is
such utter disregard of the Constitution.
While public attention has been carefully and
constantly turned to the past and expiated
sins of the South, and the servants of the
people In high places have beildly betrayed
their trust, broken their (nth' of obedience
to the Constitution, and undermined the
very foundations of liberty, justice, and good
government. When the rebellion was being
suppressed by the volunteered services of
patriot soldiers, amid the dangers of the
battle-field, these men crept, without qua
don, into place and power .in the national
councils. After all danger hild passed, when
no armed foe remained, when a penitent
people bowed their hea ds to the fiat, and
renewed their allegiance to the Government
of the United States, then it was that pre
tended patriots appeared before the nation
and began to prate about the thousands of
lives and millions of treasure sacrificed in
the suppression of the rebellion. They have
since persistently sought to inflame the pre

mon the terrible wounds of a tour years' war.
They have prevented the return of peace
and the restoration of the Union ; Inz g e7
way rendered delusive the purposes, i
ses, and pledges by which the army was mar
shalled; treason rebuked, and . rebellion
cruthed ; and made the liberties of the peo
ple, and the rights ants powers of the Presi
dent, subject* ot constant attacks. They
have wrested from the President Ida Consti
tutional power of supreme command of the
army and navy ; they have destroyed the
strength and efficiency of the Executive De
partment by making subordinate officers in
dependent of and able to defy • their chief ;
they have attempted to place the President
under the power of a held, defiant, and
treacherous Cabinet officer; they have
robbed the Executive of theprerogative of
pardon, rendered null and void sets of clem
ency granted to' thousands of persons under
the provisions of the Constitution, and com
mitted gross usurpations by legislative at
tempts to exercise this power in favor of
party adherents. They have conspired to
change the system of our government by
preferring charges against the President in
the form of articles of impeachment, snd
contemplated before bearing or trial that be
should be placed in arrest, held in durance,
and when it became their pleasure to pro
nounce his sentence, driven from place and
power in disgrace. They have, in time of
emu, increased the national debt by a reck
less expenditure of the public moneys, and
thus added bk) the burdens which already
weigh upon the people. They have per
mitted the nation to suffer the erne of a
deranged currency to the enhancement in
price of all the necessaries of life. They
have maintained a large standing army for'
the enforcement of their measures of op
pression. They have engaged in clam lega
lation, and built up and encouraged
olies, that the few might be enriched=
expense tithe many. They have failed to
act upon important treaties, thereby endan
gering our present peacehil relations with
itirelitst powers. Their course of usurpation
has not bees limited to'inroads upon the Es
