tV'AsiiiNriToN, April !.— In reference
to the withdrawal of troop* fpoin South
Carolina it ean be authoritatively stated
that i*n 'iibnt 11 jives is ilrrifleilly op

tr<»ops in the State House any State.
He holds the theory that the troops may
Iks stationed in the vicinity of any place
where a difficulty i., liable to ocewr, *ml
in ease of violence or riot they may Ire
. ailed ujmiii to preserve the peace. The
former he regards as purely political,
Without warrant of constitutional pro
Vision, while (lit- latter is a legitimate
Governmental act, and can be as
priately exercised in South Carolina as
it is in the various other States where
garrisons are now stationed. Tha en
forcemeat of these views will relieve
South Carolina, but does not cover the
Louisiaim case, Packard being entrench
ed in the Siai*- House add the soldiers In
the vicinity,
It ran liestateitnowthat tlieordetfoiThe
withdrawal of the troops from the State,
House at Columbia will be isnue.1 during
the present week, and may !><■ looked for
any time. Tim President lias always re<
garded the uee of the Federal- troops in
the municipal ntTaii-s of the State, and,
in fact, in any manner whatever in their
domedic concerns, A,..f except wntrAntrsi as s|»oelftea 11 y
provined; as an in by lb t
< 'onsfi(ution and the law;s. Therefore,
upon assuming the power* of the Chief
Magistracy, he resolved to permit no
time to bo lost in restoring what he
deemed the true relations between the
Federal and State Governments. As
this abnormal condition of tilings still
existed iji flu* States of South Carolina
and Louisiana, the ITesideut determined
to dispose of these questions before turn-,
ing his attention to other contemplated
measures of bis Administration. The
more complicated nature of the contest
in Louisiana led him to favor the plan
of a Commission in so far as the political
questions were involved, though tlieir
mission or its results will in no way effect,
the views entertained by the President
on the general obligations of the Federal
Government to recognize the
w** skate e\ereiae«* with.in the limits
M* o'*" autonomy, and not conflict
w'itli the paramount authority of the
GwnenU;Government to defend, to
serve and to perpetrate the unity of all
the States in subordimition to-its su
preme will on. the general plan of nation
alily.
Cjhih this ground the presence of
Federal soldiers in the State House at
New Orleans is view ed ill the swum tight
as in Columbia, N. t’. The questions
involved in South Carolina had
lized into a shape where they could
more readily entertained, and in this
opinion the President directed that the
contestants for Gubernatorial authority
in that State should U> invited there
conference, know inf that a statement of
Vie grounds iqH.ni which they based their
rival claims could W thus eominunicat
ed more foimk^ and fully than in a
formal correspondence,
Governor Hampton sablto-night that
he considered it pretty well sc Vied that
the trenips will be removed from "the
State House, in which event he Giought
there* would l>e no difficulty in peaceably
securing the State government without
a resort to legal proceedings.
