tho Govornmont’of tho United States
tlio action of tho Convention was in good
faith, why hesitate in making it a part of
tho Constitution of tho United States? I
trust in God that the restoration of tho
Union will not bo defeated, and all that
1ms, so far, boon woll dono, thrown away 1
I still havo faith that all will como out
right yot, This opportunity ouffht to bo
understood and appreciated by tho pcoplo
of tho Houthorn Stutos. If I know my own
heart, ami ovory passion which ontora it, it
is to roatoro tho blossingR of tho Union and
tio up and heal ovory blooding wound
which has boon caused by this frutiicidal
war. Lot us bo guidod by lovo and wis
dom from on high, and union and poaco
will oneo moro reign throughout tlio lund.
Andkhw Johnson.
Tothosotologrnpbie dispntnhos I repliod
that tho war debt of South Carolina was
very inconsiderable ; that our whole State
lohl at this timo was only about 8,000.000;
that this was mostly incurred anterior to
tlio war, in constructing railroads and
building a now Stato house, with an old
Jobt of long standing; that wo bad aa-
mod no portion of tho Confodorato'dobt
and woro responsible in no way for it.
Tho oxpondiluros which tlio Stato bad in
curred up to a certain poriod had all been
settled and refundod by tho Confederate
States.
I slated that South Carolina bad abol
ished slavory in good faith, and never in
tended or wished to rostoro it; that tlio
Legislature was then considering a wiso,
just aud humane system of laws for tho
government and protection of tho froe-
mon, in nil their rights of person and
proporty ; end that there was no objection
to tho adoption of tho proposed amend
ment to tho Fodoral Constitution, oxenpt
on approhension that Congress might, un
der the second section of that nmondmont,
claim tho right to legislate for tho negro
aftor slavory was abolished. I likowiso
stated that no official notice had evorbeen
rocoivod, by tlio Legislature, of tho pro
posed amendmont to tho Constitution of
tho United Stutos.
In roply to this dispatch, 1 rocoivod the
following tologram from tho Secretary of
State, dated
Washington, Nov. (», 18G5.
To His Hser.lleney li. F. Perry, Provis
ional Governor of South Carolina :
Your dispatch to tlio President, of No
vember 4tli, lias boon received. Ho is not
entiroly satisfied with tho explanation it
contains. Ho deems necessary the pas-
sago of adequate ordinances declaring all
insurrectionary proceedings in tho State
unlawful and void ab initio.
Neithor tho Constitution nor by-laws
diroct ollicial information to tho Slat os of
amondraonts to tho Constitution submitted
by Congress. Notion of tho amendment,
by Congress, abolishing slavory was nev
ertheless sont by tho Secretary of Stato,
at the timo, to the States which woro tbon
in communication with this Government.
Formal notice will immediately bo given
to those States which were then in insur
rection.
Tho objoetlon which you mention, to
tho Inst clauso of tho constitutional I
amendment, is regarded as querulous and
unreasonable, became that clauso is really
restraining in its effects, instead of enlar
ging the power of Congress.
The l’reaidont considers tho acceptance
of the amendment, by South Carolina, a*
indispensable to a restoration of her rela
tions with tho other States of the Union.
W. II. Skward.
This formal notlco of tho pronosod
nmondmont to the Constitution of tho
United States has not yet been received.
When it i*, 1 will comnuinicato tho samo
to you. Tho amendment may be soon in
Acts of tlio last Congross, and is in theso
words: •
“Neither slavory nor involuntary ser
vitude, oxcopt as a punishment for crime,
whereof tho party shall have boon duly
convicted, shall oxist within tho limits of
tho United Statos, or any placo subject to
their jurisdiction.
Sec. 2. Congress shall liavo powor to
onforoo this articlo by appropriate legisla
tion. Approved February 1, 1806.
A fow days since I addressed a commu
nication to Mr. Soward, Secretary of
Stato, by mail, in which l repeated and
cnlargod on the viowa previously ex
pressed to the President iu reference to
tho objections which wore entertained in
South Carolina to the proposed constitu
tional nmondmont, I am happy to find
that tho Secretary of Stato doe* not regard
those objections ns well founded, hut con
siders thorn “querulous and unreasona
ble.” It is truo, that a plain, honoM. con
struction of tho language of tho amend
ment would bo, that slavery was abol
ished in the United State*, and tTiat Con
gress should simply enforce it. When
this was done, their legislation would bo
ended. They could not attempt, under
tho authority given by this amendment,
to pass laws for tho government of the
“freodmon” in thoir fifli Ftato. 'Tho At
torney General of tho United Spates nnd
tho President have both been understood
as concurring in this opinion. It would,
therefore, bo well, in adopting the pro
posed amendment, to place on record tho
construction which had been given to it
by tho Exocutivo Department of the Fed-
oral Government.
It is manifest, from tlio earnest, elo
quent and patriotic terms in-which tho
President has urged the adoption of this
Rmondmont, that ho regards, as lie says,
“all that South Carolina bus done—nnd so
woll dono—as thrown away, unless the
amendment is uecopted by tlm Legisla
ture.” Tho. Secretary of Stato i= still
moro oxplicit in his language. He says:
“Tho Presidont consider? the acceptance
of tho nmondmont by South Carolina ns
indisponsablo to a restoration of her rela
tions with tho other States of tlio Union.”
Tho reason why this oxaction is made of
tho Southern Statos, after they hnvo abol
ished slavery, is, that thoy might othor-
wiso, at somo future day, change their
Constitutions and rostoro slavery, in do*
fiance of tho Fodoral Government.
You, gentlomoii, liavo nt this timo tho
destiny of tho Stato in your hands, and i
fool assured that you will act calmly and
Dispassionately, with tho view* to the
poaco, happiness and well-being of South
Carolina.
1 addrossod a communication lo the
Soorotnry of tho Treasury at Washing
ton, n few days sinco, urging that, in case
tho Legislature should assume tlio pay
ment of that portion of tho direct lav for
which South Carolina is liable, tlio Foil-
oral Governmentshould receive her bonds
for tlio satne, or suspend tho collodion of
tho tax for tho present year. L would nd-
viso tho immodiato assumption by the
Stato of her portion of tho direct tax,
which is about $800,000. This will relieve
Uio people from tho immediate payment
of it to tho Fodoral tax collector?, and en
able the Stato to innko somo arrangements
in reference to it with tho Treasury De
partment or Congross.
In my communication to tho Secretary
of Stato I urged tho propriety of with
drawing the colored troops from the in
terior of tho State to tho torts or soacoast,
and requested that white troops might,
for tho prosont, bo retained in Charleston,
Georgetown and Beaufort.
I havo forwarded tho resolutions you
sont mo tho other day, in roforohco to the
school-houses in Charleston, to (Jen. How
ard, and asked that they should bo re
stored to the proper authorities. I made
tho Maine request in regard to tho Military
lift 11 in Charleston. 15. F. Perky,

Hon. Henry W. Hilliard, of Alabama,

Tlio Cholera,
In a report made bv I>r. Edwin M.
Snow, of Providence, khodo Island, to
the Board of Aldorinen, of that city, tho
doctor says:
.So far as the city of Providence is con
cerned, if quarantine regulations wore of
any value, they would bo useless hero,
while wo havo communications a dozen
tunes daily with Now York and other
eilios; but tlicro is no principle more cer
tainly ostabli«hed in tho minds of all in
telligent observers of tho disease, than
that quarantine regulations are absolutely
end utterly useless to prevent tho intro
duction and spread of Asiatic cholera.
The cholera cannot provaiNas an epi
demic without tlio presence of a certain
mysterious condition of tho atmosphere.
Of this fttmosphnric condition little ia
known ; but it is known that its proseneo
or abscnco is not affected or regulated in
tho slightest possible degree by quaran
tine measures. Vessels may have tho
cholera on board, and may land the sick
on our shores, but tlio disease will never
become opidomic, nor spread among the
people, until that mysterious atmospheric
condition u presold. But that atmospheric
cause may como and bo prosent, and tho
disease may spread epidemically, without
any connection with the arrival of vessels
from ports whoro tho disease exists.
J f nota &nglo vessel should arrive in our
ports during tho next livo years it would
not make a singlo day’s differonco in tho
presence or alienee of tho cholera as un
epidemic.
Tho doctrino stated so positively in the
document from tho United .States Legation
at (.'onBtantinoplo that cholera is conta
gious, is equally opposed to tho opinions
of physicians and othors who liavo seen
tho disease, and is calculated to work most
serious injury, if fully believed, in any
community wbero tbo disoase oxists. If
tho cholera wa3 actually contagious, in the
Ordinary acceptation of tho term, a panic
would exist, and it would bo difficult to
obtain nurses, or medical attendance for
tho same. But no intelligent inodical ob
server of tho disease in this country, at the
present day, bcliovos that cholera is con-
tagious. 1 lmye, myself, in two epidemics
ot the cholera in this country, seen a groat
number of cases of the disease, and navo
carefully observed and studied its causes
and progress, and 1 may say, in common
with many othor.* who have made similar
observations, that wo know that cholera
is not conlugious.
Dr. Snow adds:
The causes of cholera are, first, the myi-
lerious atmospheric condition of which wo
liavo *poken; and, second, local conditions
of filth and impure air. The disease can
not prevail without the combined presence
of these two causes. Tho first cause is
bnyond human control; it advances and
recodes in obedience to tho laws of which
wo know nothing; it crosses continents
and oceans as freely as tho windsof hoaven,
and it would bo as reasonable to attempt
lo eontrM tho movements of tho oast wind
a* to attempt to control tho movements of
this cause of cholera by quarantine restric
tions. But the second cause of cholera,
and without which flr*t would be compara
tively powerless for evil, is, to a very
great extent, within our control, and here
is whore our duty lies.

The RngUaU Aristocracy,
Tho London Star gives tho following
interesting analysis of tho House of
Lords:
Tho House of Lords is a sort of cabinet
of curiosities—a museum of preserved odd
old specimens of what English politicians
used to be. It is, politically 9poaking,
just such a collection as a Darwinian phi
losopher might delight to make. Within
its wall? you soo illustrated the whole pro
gress of tho race. You begin with the
lowest of tho typo of tho British politi
cian—tho lowest typo, that is, which wo
can vet present to investigation, until sci
ence succeeds in finding tho long sought
missing link which is to connect our he
reditary legislation once for all with tha
stolid ruminating herd onco adopted by
Edmund Burke as symbolic of tno calm
solidity of British institutions. Iioreyou
have the noble lord who still firmly be
lieves in protection, Divine right, and tha
imminence of a French invasion; tho in
telligent peer who associates a working-
man’s franchise with the subversion of
tho throne and tho altar; tho nobleman,
who is convinced that England has not
bad a happy day sinco people began to
fill tho bonds of tho poor with their con
founded nonsense about education; tha
patriarchal signior, who cannot under
stand how a man can liavo tho imperti
nence to make use of his landlord’s land
in order to vote for somebody his land
lord does not want to soo in Parliament.
On yonder bench is the interesting speci
men of tho English peer, who thinks Eng
land is going to tho dogs, since all sorts of
common fellows nro beginning to poke
their way into tho diplomatic service, and
who wonders whether any gentleman will
over servo in the army if tho system of
piircha*n should bo sacrificed to tho radi
cal*. Just opposite him—a remarkably
fine specimen—is tlio British nobleman,
who can hardly speak for spluttering an
ger when ho hears of audacious innova
tor* who opposo tho game laws. Woll
worthy of patient study is tho old-fash-
ioned law lord who looked upon Weit-
bury a* a sort of judicial Chartist, and
wonder* tho movements of the oarth did
not cease when tho first daring hand pulN
ed down a piece of tbo time-honored fab*
ric of chancory. Nor should any one fail
to glance at tbo antique military peer,
who is for governing India by martial
law, and who would have gone in for war
against tbo American republic, modern
cannon and unstockod infantry necks, all
at onco. How should wo forgot the peer
of amateur piety—a sad fellow in his day
—who vows that tho glory of England is
identified with the support of tho Irish
church, and wondets why tho law officers
of the crown do not recommend somo
stringent moasuro* for tho instant suppress
aloft of i raotarianism ? Those, of course,
are all among the lowor specimens.
Our Engli-h cotomporary omits the
bishop*, who flourish iu their fat livings,
while tlio masses of tho pooplo are men
tally famishing, and thoir teachers, the
schoolmasters and lower clergy, aro paid
starvation wages.
