Vo the Senate of the United Stale*:
l have examined with care the
which originated in the Senate and has
been passed by both Houses of Congress
to amend an act eutitled : “ An act to es
tablish a bureau for the relief of freedmen
:md refugees and for other purposes.”
Having, with much regret come to the
Konclusiun that it would not he consistent
with the public welfare to give uiy ap-
jroval to the measure, 1 return the bill to
the Senate with my objections to it* be
coming a law.
L might call to mind in advance of
these objections, that there is no immedi
ate necessity for the proposed measure.
The act to establish a bureau for the re
lief of freedmen and refugees, which was
approved in the month of .March last,
lias not yet expired. It was thought to
he stringent enough for the purposes in
\ iew before it ceases to have effect ;
t'Arthur experience may assist to guide us
to a wise conclusion as to the policy to
he adopted in time of peace. I have with
Coii ocss the strongest desire to secure to
Ireedmen the l ull enjoyment of their free
dom and their prop, rty and their entire
independence and equality in making con
tracts for their labor. Hut the bill before
me contains provisions which, in my
opinion, are not warranted by the Con
stitution and are not well suited to ac
complish the end in view. The bill pro
poses to establish by authority of Congress
military jurisdiction over all parts ot the
United States containing refugees and
jreedmei. It would, by its ve r y nature,
apply with most force to those parts of
the United States in which the freedmen
most abound ; and it expressly extends to
tint existing temporary jurisdiction ot
the Frecdmeu's Bureau, with greatly en
larged powers over those States in which
the ordinary course of judicial proceed
ings have been interrupted by the rebel
lion. The source I ruin which tnis milita
ry jurisdiction is to emanate is none other
than the Riesidcut ot the United States,
acting through the War Department, aud
the commander of the Freed men's Bu
reau. The agents to carry out this mili-
t
from the army
country is to be divided into districts
and sub-districts, and the number of sal
aried agents to be employed may be equal
to tlie number of counties or parislies in
every part of the United States where
treed uen and refugees are to be found
The subjects over which this military ju-
lUdictio.i is 11 extend, in every part of
the United States, include protection to
all employees, agents anil officers ot the
bureau in the exercise ot the duties im-
i>il upon them by the bill. In eleven
ment of the guilty, and the equal admin
istration of justice are to be set aside,
and for the sake of more vigorous intoi-
position in behalf of justice we are to take
the risk of the many acts of injustice that
would of necessity follow from an almost
countless number of agents in nearly a
bill j third of the States of the Union over
whose decision there is to be noBupervis-
ion or control by the Federal courts.
The power that would be thus placed in
the hands of the President, is such, as in
times of peace, certainly ought never to
be intrusted to any one man. If it be
asked whether the creation of such a tri
bunal within a State is warranted as a
measure of war, the question immediately
presents itself whether we are still en
gaged in war. Let us not unnecessarily
disturb the commerce, credit and in
dustry of the country by declaring to the
American people and the world that the
United States are still in a condition of
civil war. At present there is no part of
our country in which the authority of the
United States is disputed. Offences that
may be committed by individuals should
not work a forfeiture of the rights of the
same communities. The country has en
tered or is returning, to a state of peace
and industry, and the rebellion is in fact
at an end. The measure therefore seems
to be as inconsistent with the actual con
dition of the country as at variance with
lowanre of the Constitutional right of rep- surrection, and to overcome obstructions;
resentation. At the time, however, of to the law.
the consideration and passing of the bill I return tho bill to the Senate, in ;

that amount—more than the entire sum there was no Senator or Representative earnest hope that a measure involving
expended in any oue year under the ad-j in Congress from eleven States which questions and interests so important to
ministration of the second Adams. If the
presence of agents in every parish and
county is to be considered a war measure,
opposition, or even resistance, might
be provoked, so that to give effect to their
jurisdiction troops would have to be »ta-1 in Congress to explain their conditiou,
tioned within the reach of every one of and especially accusations, and assist, by
them; and thus a large standing foree
would be necessary, aud largo appropria-

tary jurisdiction are to be selected, either
from the army, or from civil life. The
post
8utes it is further to extend overall cases
affecting freedmen and refugees, who
may be discriminated against by the
local laws, customs or prejudices in those
eleven States. The bill subjects any
white person who may be charged with
depriving a freedman of any civ il rights
or immunities belonging to white persons,
to imprisonment or tine, or both, without,
definin'' the civil rights and immunities
which are thus to be secured to freedmen
by military law. This military jurisdic
tion also extends to all questions that
q«av arise respecting contracts. The
,,-cnt who is thus to exercise the office of
military judge may be a stranger, cn-
jircly ignorant of the laws of the place,
a i,d exposed to errors of judgment to
which all men are liable. The exercise
*d' power, over which there is no legal su-
-vision. by so vast a number of agents
is contemplated by the bill must, by the
very n iture of man, be attended by acts
of caprice, injustice and passion. U be
trials having their origin under this bill
are to take place without the intervention
.of a jury, and without any fixed rules of
Jaw or evidence. I lie rules on which of-
lonscs are to be heard and determined

and extraordinary 111'lit.ary measures to
suppress a formidable rebellion, a per
manent branch of the public administra
tion, with its power greatly enlarged. I
have no reason to suppose, and do not
understand it to be alledgcd, that the act
of March, 18G5, has proved deficient for
the purpose for which it was passed, al
though at that time, and for a considerable
period thereafter, the Government of the
United States remained unacknowledged
in most of the States whose inhabitants
had been involved in the rebellion. The
institution of slavery, for the destruction
of which the Frcedmen’s Bureau was
called into cxistance as an auxiliary for
it, has already been effectually and finally
abrogated throughout the whole country
by an amendment to the Constitution
of the United States, and practically its
eradication has received the assent and
concurrence of the most of those States
in which it at any time had existed, and
I am not, therefore, able to discern in the
country anything to justify an appre
hension that the powers and agencies
of the Frecdmeu’s Bureau, whioh were
effective for the protectiou of freeduieu
and refugees, during the actual continua
tion of hostilities and of African servi
tude, will now, in a time of peace, and
after the abolition of slavery, prove inade
quate to the same proper ends ? If I am
correct in these views there can be no ne
cessity for the enlargement of the powers
of the Bureau, for which a provision! is
made in the bill. Tho third section of
the bill authorises a general and unlimited
amount of support to the destitute and
suffering refugees and frceduieD, and their
wives and children.
The succeeding sections make provis
ion for the rent or purchase of landed
estates for freodmeu, and lor the ereotion
for their benefit of suitable buildings f*r
assylums and schools, the expenses (a bo
defrayed from the treasury of the whole
people. The Congress of the United Sta
tes has never heretofore thought itself
competent to establish any laws beyond
the limits of the District of Columbia, ex
cept for tho benefit of our disabled soldiers
and sailors. It has nev«r founded schools
for any class of our own people, not even
for the orphans of those who have fallen
in defense of the Uutou, but has, left the
care of their education lo the much more
competent control of the States, of com
munities, of private associations, and of
individuals. It has never deemed itself
