AEOIT PABDO*S.
A vei v i-trr.nge donlr or misconception ex
ists in i t gard To tbe nl'ec-t of the President’s
pirdon upon the property‘rights of tbe patty
pardoned*. The language of the proclama
tion ge ms to be as explicit as possible on this
point. It Is as follows :
To the end, therefore, that tho authority
lof the Gove; nment of the United States may be
j restored, ana’ that peace, order and freedom
; may be establahed, I, Andrew Johnson.
I President of the United Siates, do proclaim
i and declare that I hereby grant to all persons
! «ho have, directly or indirectly, participated
in the existing reheliicn, except as herinafter
j provided, amn sty and pardon, with restora
tion of all rights of property, except as to
I slaves, and except in cases where legal pro
ceedings under the laws of tho United States
providing for confiscai ion of properly of persons
engaged in rebellion, h ive been instituted ; but
upon the condition, nevertheless, that every
such person sbfdl tak9 and subscribe the fol
lowing oath, &c. ’
This is the cene’al pardon, which tens of
thousands have taken. The following is ihe
tenor of the special pardon, granted in con
formity with the same proclamation, under the
list of exception®, viz:
That I, Andrew Johnson, President of the
United Sta’es of America, in consideration of
the premises, divers other good and sufficient
reasons me thereunto moving, do hereby grant
to the sYd a full pardon and amnesty
for all offences by him committed, arising from
participation- diiect or implied, in the said re
bellion, conditioned as follows, viz : this par
don to begin and take effect, from tbe day on
which the said shall take the oath prescrib
ed in the proclamation ot (be President dated
May 29, 1865, and to be void and of no effect
if the Enid shall hereafter, at anv
time, acquire any property whatever in slaves,
or m ike use of slave labor, that he first pay
."ill • osts which may have accrued in any pro
ceedings hitherto instituted against his person
or property.
These pardons, special and general, are
granted in conformity with a clause of the
conti cation act itself, approved July 17, 1862,
and entitled “an act to suppress insurrection,
to punish (reason and rebellion, to seize and
confiscate the property of rebels, and for other
purposes.” The clause is as fol'ows.
Sect.. 12. And belt further enapted. That
the President is. hereby authorized, at any
time hereafter, by proclamation, to extend to
persons who may have participated in the ex
isting rebellion in any State or part thereof,
pardon and amnesty, with such exceptions and
of such time and on such conditions as he may
deem expedient for the public welfare.
It thus appears that the President has the
authority of Congress for granting -amnesty
and paidon for all offences against the United
States committed during the late rebellion,
and that he was exercised the power thu3 con
ferred by restoring ail property rights to tiie
parties, even where legal proceedings has been
instituted, but not consummated. If the pro
ceedings are begun under tho confiscation act
in any couit of the United States, tho paidon
has the effect of quashing them on payment
of costs by the party pardoned.
We have been induced to make this state
ment in consequence of doubts and misappre
hensions in regard & the effect of a pardon,
which tend to ifchrow suspicion upon the sol
vency of Southern men, and to prevent a
revival of business and industry, Tho whole
country is interested in tne speedy restoration
of peace, order and confidence in the) South,
without which there can be no healthy trade
and intercomse between tbe sections.
Congressional Admissions. —The Washing
ton Chronicle, which is considered tbe home
mouth piece of the administration has com
menced speaking about what it will be neces
sary for States to do in cider to have their
Congressional delegates admitted to Congress
Here is what the Chronicle says on ihe mat
ter :
In order to illustrate what will certainly be
required by Congress before admitting a, se
ceded State into full communion, yve will take
the example of Penu-yivvaia, bordering on
three slave States which formed itp Southern
boundary. • The act of 1780 for the gradual
abolition of slavery, extinguished this institu
tion twenty years ago ana not even a single
slave appears in (he Constitutions of lsf>o and
1860, Somerset's ease is the recognised and
established law of Pennsylvania. By tbe
amended Constitution of 1838, only white
McmuCH w Rh the requisite qualifications are
entitled to vote and enjoy the right of electors.
Colored citizens do not hold public offices,
whether executive, legislative or judical; nor
do they sit upon juries; but, in all other res
pects they are on a par with their white fel
low citizens, as the three great cardinal rights
of life, liberty, arid property, and are gov
erned by the same civil and criminal laws,
which know no distinction or color or race.
This is clearly the policy of Congress as evi
denced in their legislation for the District of
Columbia, iu subjecting persons of color to the
same laws as white persons and no other, and
in providing that there shall be no exclusion
from the railroad cars, or as witness, on ac
count of color. la all the courts of the Uni
ted States sitting and dispensing justice iu
every State of the Union, there is no exclusion
of witnesses cn account of color, and color is
noduqualilUation from employment iu carry
ing the mails.
In Pennsylvania tho Christian institution of
marriage exists in all its force with the col
ored race, and adultery and fornication, wheth
er with whites or persons of oolor, are punish
able by law. The father not the .mo'h-r, has
the guardianship, education, and maintenance;
of his children, and the husband cannot be
torn from his wife and children. They have
common schools like the whites, and are
taught,to read the Bible unexpurgated by
slave owners or their divines. There is no pat
rol system —no black code—but only one sys
tem of laws, governing alike whites and blacks,
without the slightest distinction arising from
color
They are on a perfect equality as to rights
with the great body oi Use English people.
All laws therefore, in the Southern States re
cognizing any distinction between the two races
as to the three great rights cf life, liberty, and
property, muff he repealed forthwith, and the
means oi education must be given to theca. They
are docile and willing to lea r rj, and it is the
duty of the National Government to see that
those who iought under the old flag for the
Union and for the freedom of their race
should have iho bent fils of education and
Christianity extended without feti A to them
and to the whole of our colored population.
Tiis Ccmmixg Tgb>.oo < Ueo* The commis
sioner of agriculture, in speaking of the com
ing tobacco crop, remarks thus :
“The lessened consumpti m of tobacco !a con
sequence ot the high internal taxes on the
manufactured product, and the apprehension
of a tax upon the leaf, have caused a material
failing off in tho amount of planted this sea
sou. This crop, as has been shown in these
reports, is but bareiy able to sustain itself,
and should these taxes operate so as to de
stroy or materially lessen the export trade
in the leaf—amounting to about twenty mil
lions of dollars annually—the tobacco grow- (
iug interest piotesf against an excessive
taxaii >o, it u tffus paralyzes the growing of a
product, which,'though it be a luxury, is nev
ertheless oue of .greui; pecuniary benefit to the
