Show the people of the North l#u we have no proscription in our hearts, that we welcome him who comes here as a citizen, no matter what his politics may he. When, in August last. I was nominated as your standard-hear er, I pledged myself that I should he the Coventor of the whole people of South Carolina. 1 pledged myself that 1 would know no race, no party, no man in the administration of the laws. 1 pledged myself, and the platform on which i stood declared, that every citizen of South Carolina, white or black, was equal before the laws, and I solemnly appeal ed to heaven and declared,should 1 be elected,l would see an equal .adminisl rat ion of the laws. 1 promised that when I was nomi nated, and I reiterated those pledges time and again through outtin* length and breadth of this broad land of ours; 1 told the colored men 1 would fill till these promises to the letter; that if the parly which nominated me should al any time go back on them; if they attempted to take away any of the rights now enjoyed by the colored people they would have to lint! some other iirslrument. for before i would sect hat done ! would resign. 1 say again, now that the power has been placed in my hands, here where 1 took life oath of oflice. solemnly swear ing'that 1 would obey the Con stitution of the Cnited States and ■of this State; i say once more that ! intend to carry (ml every pledge and to be Coventor of the whole people. 1 here enjoin it upon you tbpt.Mo reap life fruits of our victory, you must Observe the laws* ido not issue--it pro clamation. Ido not give an or tier,, but j gsk my irieiqU of:South Carolina, the people whom 1 have trusted and who nave trusted me and done me more honor than any people ever did a man, 1 ask ihein to Uarry out my wishes. 1 want every man to constitute himsclfa eonservatorof the peace see that there shall be no vio lence, and go around and tell his 'neighbors that if there is bloodshed and violence we shall lose what we have gained, and to appeal to them to carry out this policy of peaef. The only dillicuity that seemed to stand in the way at Washing ton was the fear that when the troops were taken out of the State-house t here would be vio lence. They asked about it. 1 pledged my honor mark me, my friends—l pledged my honor that not one single man should go into that State-house unless he had business there; Hint I would place two unarmed men there simply to inform the citi zens that I requested them not to go there, and I 1 elt assured there would lie no violence or ex citement and that the laws would he obeyed. Have I promised too much for you? (Cries ol **.\ o! ‘ j Von have trusted toe. Irust me :t little longer. It is important for you. It is doubly important for Louisiana and for the whole country that you should carry out tim e promises. 1 requested that the troops should not he re moved until 1 got here. When that order comes let nobody go tolhat Stale-lionse. Just let it ■stand until 1 w ant it. and 1 will tell you when 1 want it. Your destiny is no\v in your hands. It is for you to shape it for weal or for woe. Yon can. by imprudence or violence, undo tlm labor of months and bring back tun all the scenes of attar chv. misrule and con option which have prevailed, or R you are pru dent and discreet as yon have been von can soon place your selves in ft higher and better plane, i beg the white men to how the colored men that what ! have said for twelve years* is true, yofi fire the la st friend' they have in this world. 1 appeal to the injured men to recognize the ’government which is now" firmly (established, to trust us lorn while. and, as they are 'till in the ma jority, if the government 1 have established does not carry out the pledges ! have made them, throw out all the men in office at # the next tdeclion and put in any bodv von please. The ( iovernor concluded with a fervent appeal to all Smith Car oliniims, native and foreign horn, white and black. Democrats and Republicans, to unite in a grand effort to restore the State toils once happy and prosperous con dition, when she stood the peer and equal of any State in the Union. I.oriSIANA, KKMOVAI. OK TIIOOI’S. Executive Mansion. April 20. Sir: Prior to my entering upon the duties of the presidency, there had been stationed by order of my predecessor, in the immedi ate vicinity of the building used as a state house in New Orleans, Louisiana, and known as the Me chanics institute*, a detatchment ot l nited States infantry. Rind ing them in that place, I have thought proper to delay a de cision of the question of their re moval until 1 could determine whether the conditions of affairs is now such, as to either reemire or justify tlm continued military intervention of the national gov ernment in the allairs of the state. In my opinion there does not now exist in Louisiana such domestic violence as is contemplated by 1 lie constitution, as (lie ground upon which the military' power of tlx* nalional A>dvernniont may be invoked for the defence of the stall*, flu* disputes which ex ist as to the right of certain claim ants tothe chief executive office of that state are to he settled and determined, not by t he executive of the United States, but by such orderly and peaceable methods as may be provided by tin* constitu tion and laws ol’thll slate. Hav ing tlx* assurance that no resort to violence is contemplated, but that. on tlie contrary, tlx* disputes in question tire to be settled by peaceful methods, under and in accordance with law, I deem it proper to take action in accord ance with the principles an noiinced when 1 entered upon the duties of the presidency. You are therefore directed to see that t lie proper orders are issued for the removal of said troops at an early date from their present po sition to such regular barracks in t lie vicinity, as may lie selected for their occupation.

S/tn'vmn- —(1 is mor al—l have the honor to enclose herewith a copy of a communica tion Iron) Ihe president of the United States, in which lie directs that the detatchment of United Stales troops now stationed in the vicinity of the Mechanic’s institute, in the city of New Or leans, Louisiana, be withdrawn to such convenient barracks as may be selected for their occupation. You are hereby charged with the execution of this order and w ill cause the withdrawal to take place on Tuesday next, the twen ty-fourth of April, at 12 o’clock, meridian. Very respectfully, your obedient servant, Gi-;o. W. M< Cuakv, Secretary of War. This order will be sent by (Jen. Sherman to Lieut. Gen Sheridan. As tlx*Cathedral’clock struck twelve tit NexyOrleans on the 24th ultimo, a detachment of the third infant it, under Command of Lieut Col. .1. R. Rrooke, marched out of ( Cleans hotel, passed up Chari re’s street to St. Loui- street, out to the river, where they embarked on a steamboat for the barracks. About one hundred men from oth er regiments assembled on t he op positc side of the street-in front of ()rlcans hotel, to see t heir coin rade- move. When the infantry hand began to play, a few linn dred persons gathered along 1 lie line of inarch, but there was not tlx* slightest den i oust ration of any kind.

Before taking the oath, ex Gov. Warmouth said : *• 1 appear here with a number of my colleagues, for the pur pose of taking our seats in the house. In the caucus of senators and representatives, a resolution was adopted that it was useless to continue the controversy. We have no apologies. We have been whipped in the battle, but have at least preserved our self respect in an honorable contest, and are prepared now to offer our alle giance to the only existing gov ernment, and to fairly co-operate in anything which may be sug gested.” On tlx* 25th ult. Gov. Packard and all bis adherents, except one metropolitan, bad left the State House, and Col. Bayloii, chief of police, directed a squad of Ids men to take possession of the building. Packard's militia left behind them about 2,000 st amis of arms belong ing to the state government. Gen'l. Nieholls received many telegrams from points in Louisi ana, Alabama. Mississippi and Texas, offering congratulations over tlie withdrawal of tlx* troops and indicating great rejoicing a lining the people. Packard's parting with his po lice before lx* left tlx* building on tlx* night of the 25th, is said to have been quite an affecting af fair. lie* made them a speech, in which he told them that if they could get any ofllie appropriation made for them by the Nicholl’s legislature, to take it. Several of tlx* most effective members of the force waited on Packard the next day at his house and told hint t hey had been offered positions in the reorganized force, and they Want ed his advice whether to accept. He recommended them to accept. Gov. Packard, in an address to the republicans of the state, thus closes the tight : “Had the gene ral assembly continued in session in the state house, 1 should have deemed it my duty to have assert ed my government to the last, notwithstanding the withdrawal of the troops; hut with the legis lature disintegrated, and no pros pect of present success, I cannot task your tried fidelity by asking you longer to continue to aid me in the struggle 1 have thus far maintained. 1 therefore announce to you that I am compelled to ab stain for the present from all ac tive assertion of my government. 1 waive none of my legal rights, but yield only to superior force.— I am not wholly discouraged by the fact that one by one the re publican state governments of t lx* south have been forced to suc cumb to force or fraud or policy. Louisiana, the first state rehabili tated after the war,is the last state whose government thus falls, and 1 believe it will be among the first to raise itself again to the plane of equal and just representation. 1 advise that you maintain your party organization, and continue to battle for the rights of citizen ship and free government. We strive for these, and not for man or men. it grieves me beyond expression that the heroic efforts you have made, and the cruel suf fering you have undergone, to maintain republican principles in Louisiana, have had this hitter ending. To those who have so gallantly stood by me in the long contest we have passed through, I tender my heartfelt thunks. To all I counsel peace, patience, for titude and a tirm trust that,event ually, right and justice \yijl pre vail." At noon on the 2(>th ult. by a joint resolution, the legislature adjourned from Odd Fellows hall to St, Louis hotel, where they re assembled ami proceeded with business. Judge 11. M.

And thus ends the Louisiana muddle, PRESIDENT HA YES’.SO l’Til krn roi.icv, Washinuton. April 15. Pre>i dent Hayes said yesterday, in 1 lie* course of conversation, that he had no concealments regarding his Southern policy, which, how ever, had been foreshadowed by oral and written utterances, and in this connection he adverted to the gubernatorial campaign in Ohio in 1>75. which resulted in hi- election over Governor Allen, the people of the State having full knowledge of his sentiments on national questions, including, of course, those which related to the .South. The opening speech of a gubernatorial condidate is generally considered to be the kev note of the campaign, and in such a speech, as early as theßlst of July of that year, at Marion, he fully and distinctly expressed his opinions. This speech was pub lished at length in all the Repub lican and many other newspapers, and therefore his views were gen erally known. In that speech, after congratulating his fellow citizens cm the complete triumph over those who sought to destroy the Union and the grand results of llie war. he alluded to the call ing together again of t#r North ern and Southern men in the spir it of harmony and friendship, in cluding those who had fought a gainst one another, and, as a prominent feature in this evi deuce of good feeling, lie on that occasion spoke of the kindly man ner in which Vice President Wil son was received on his visit to the South In the era of good feeling and reconciliation, lie further said there were still per sons who talked of bayonets, and who sought to revive the pre.judi ces of the past. This was much to he regretted, hut there was e nough to till every heart with gratitude, tlx* house being no longer divided, and all the in habitants having a fair start in the race for lift*. In this and in all his other speeches he earnestly condemned the reopening of old issues between the North and South,assert ing that tlx* time had come for complete reconciliation. The President, in further con versation, referred to the fact that the National Republican (Conven tion which nominated him for the presidency passed a resolu tion sacredly pledging the Re publican party to protect every citizen of tlx* United States in all his civil and political rights, and declaring that the permanent pacification of the South should he effected by removing all caus es of discord. The spirit of this resolution was in perfect accord with his own views previously expressed, and he repeated them in liis letter of acceptance of the nomination, and more fully elab orated them in liis inaugural ad dress, consistently maintaining the policy of reconciliation and local self-government, apart from military support ; and when lie entered upon the duties of the Presidency, he intended that this policy should not lit* one of senti ment merely, hut of actual ad ministration. lie spoke with emphasis when he said: “M.v belief is that this course tends to give good government to tlx* South; it tends to secure peace between sections, and between races and parties at the South, and it tends to secure the rights, interests, and safety of the color ed people; that, therefore, 1 am in favor of the policy. I do not know whether I shall succeed in carrying it out, because there are Northern and Southern men who, in various ways, may possibly thwart me; but of one thing I am confident, namely, I think it my duty to try to carry out the pol icy, and I am going to do it.’’ The Nevada Legislature, w hich lias just adjourned, passed an acl for the punishment of wife heaters. If provides that one con victed shall he tied to a post in some public place, and there re main exposed to the jeers of the passers by for a period of several hours. A placard on the breast will indicate the offence. Two chronic wife-heaters arc now mi der arrest, and the efficacy of tlk* new law will have a prompt test. The importance of providing some humiliating punishment for those who heat women seems to have secured more than usual attention recently. A hill to establish a whipping post for this class of of fenders is now before the Missouri Legislature, and a similar propo sition has been brought forward in Illinois, where the pillory post did once exist as ;t inciin* of punish meiit. There could he nothing more humiliating, certainly, hut it would he scarcely possible even thus to humiliate a inau who had descended to tlx* depth of heating a woman. K.n<'limuje. L. S. NOKTIKTTT.
