The resistance to the general ”-ovcr uient havin"c xliaustcd itself, the first question that arose was whether the the territory within the limits of those States which attempted to secede, should beheld as conquered territory under millitary xufhoritv etn inu itig; trout the President. He considers that miliahiry goven:icnts, established for an i definite period over these States, would have t Sereil no security for an early suppression ol discontent, and would have divided die people 1 into vanquishers a:id vanquished, and would have envenomed hatted rather than have restored ass ction between , the divided sections. The true theory is that all pretended acts ot secession were from the begin ning null and vid ; that States cannot I commit treason n>r screen the indi* vidual citizens whe may have com mitted treason. The States attempting: to secede placed themselves in a condi* tion wherein their futic ic is were sus pended, but not destroyed. But if any State neglects or refuses to perform its offices, there is the more need that the : general government shall maintain its 1 authority, an i as soon as practicable, resume the exercise of all its futic* tion s. On this principle 110 had acted. Gradually, eqally and by almoftf imperceptible steps, lie bad soughl to restore the rightful energy of the General Government and of tho States. To that end provisional gover nors were early appointed. All the parties in tho late terrible conflict must work together in h*r mony. It is not to much to ask, that on the one side the plan of restoring tho energies of the government shall proceed iu conformity with a wflliguess to cast the disorders of the past into oblivion, and that on the other, the evidence of sincerity in the future maintenance of the Union, shall be put beyond any doubt by the ratification of the proposed a iti slavery amendment to the Constitution This amendment being adopted, it would remain lor the States to resume their places in the two branches of Cengress, and thereby complete the work of restoration. Ihe President says he has no author* ity to make the freedmen electors. That measure remains with the States and they can decide whether it is to be adopted at once, or introduced grad* nally with proper conditions. Good faitt!, however requires that the secu rity ot the freedme.i Le guaranteed in ther liberty, property and right to la., bor and to claim the just returns of their labor. it will be his constant aim to pro mote unity with ail foreign nations, and he believes all of them arc anima ted with the same disposition The accordance of belligerent rights to in surgent States was unjustifiable. H t Great Britinn was an cxcepton. 3h 4 built ships, and furnished men and material ol war to the insurgents. The justification for it cannot be sustained before the tribunal of the world. .At the same time, he does not advise any present attempt at redress by acts of legislation. For the future, the friend* ship between the two counties must rest on a basis of mutual justice- Vie have wisely forborne, because propa gandists of republicanism. But it would be the cause of great calamity to ourselves and the cause ot good gov ernment, should any foreign powers challenge the American people to i‘r defence against foreign interference: and he relies on the wisdom and jus tice ol those powers to respect the sys. tem of non interference which has so long been sustained by them.

Illustrious Brethren and Soveri igu Grand 0 mmander*: At the close oi the groat harvest of that pitiless v.apcr, Death, and, while having paused through mere wear* incss lie rests, we assemble, from States widely distant from each other and not long since mad with *ll tho direful civil var, to kneel together once more around the altar of Scott'sh Masonry, to lament tho dead and to labor for the benefits of society, our country and humanity. During lour terrible years our couu rt Temples have been for tho most ed,er the asues of the fires upon our altars have been cold, and the brethren have meteach other as enc* mies or ceased to commune with each other. Is lated in most of our S'tat.es from the outer world, we have hud no correspondence with foreign bodies. .No attempt has been made to enlarge the border* of the Ancient Accepted Scottish Rite < ceased to meet ’1 ho Veil of the Tem ple has indeed been rent in tvrahi, ou. working tools were broken, and our columns lay overthrown and prostrate. In war when hell legislates for hu manity and all the horrible influence., that can debase and demoralize, mm are busily at work. .Masonry can do little even to soften the hoirors no temper the hatreds of a strife t!u>t she was powerless to avert. In sum ia tert,fnded, her. tw be trampled under foot and d^-oni privileges to be denied to tl their brethren thought it Ma mio pie ty to brand as rebels. Tin y forgot that when States were arraved ; inst States in an open war of gigantic pro portions, Masonic ci s ity required them to believe that their brethren who fought tinr political i.udepri; fence, however much they might be in error were sincere y ami honestly obeying their convictions of duty without any ol the moral guilt ol treason; and they forget that, in holding them to nav fori cited their rights as .Masons they, themselves, were led by their passions to violate their Masonic obligations. But these were net permitted to make Masonry, and least of all, Scottish Ma sonry, a party to the civil war waged I between Statu*. 1 hey comp omitted themselves alone, ami t!i lire and bino f. e oi the buttle scorched ?njt her garments. lliey earned the condcnn nation and contempt of the wo: and of Masonry; but Masonry itself s, actci us to be entitled to boner and a mi. ration. \\ ith peace the opportunity for u** I *, ful labor returns to the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Kite.
