I *... ? ?... S to begin between All the kicrobcm of the 1 Secale aud myself will be pleasant and r <B agreeable. I ahull exert every iuflueucc in * my power to make thoia so, and iuvoke the v oordial support of the Senate in the eon- ? A summation of this purpose. 1 know that jjw my principal duty will be to enforoe the .'j jj rules which the Senate, of whoui 1 am siui\ f' ply the organ, hare made, aud this I will en1 i deavor to do with fairness and impartiality. r i I solicit your forboarance and patience. I p rea}iae that my position as presiding officer t> debars me from the priviloge of partioipat T , ing in the debates, and that it will be im- * t proper for me to use my official position for the purpose of influencing your legislation. - bat as a citizen I can but naturally feci an ^ ardent interost in your work, so far as itaf- " . . fects our common mother, the State, and a n proper pride in seeing you contri^ptc to her o| restoration to her place in the front rank of o . i. her peers amongst the bright stars of tbo ? American galaxy. Such a feeling, I think, t , should burn in the bosom of every Senator, e ^ ' * and you should enter -upon the work of re- r generation, having oyer in vtcWlho old Roman maxim, "To tare care that the republic C should suffer uo detriment at their bauds. (' I suggest that you lay aside all the animosities and turmoils of the past, and, fOfget- 1 ing all antagonisms, unite as a corn liiofa band of brothers for the promotion of the best interests of all classes, races and conditions of ,~ the people of tfre State. Then you may rightfully expWt not only to rooaivo tho plaudits of your fcllow-oountrymen, but, when sittiug hereafter within.the-grateful shade of tho geucral prosponty whioh will flow out of your work,, could osoh look back \ with just pride to bia individual part^oipa (L _ tiou in it, - W Mr. Jeter then announoed to tbo Chair that tho senators from Abbeville, Barnwell, _ Edgefield and Laurens were present end >_ ready to qualify. The Senators from those oountios (Demi 2 | ocrnusj then approached tho President's " ; ) desk and presented their credentials. ,l 'Some sousatioQ was created among the Radicals by this, and one of them shouted jn out a motion td adjourn. Another cried, "Let us do t^ia peuccablj." Tho President said that every county had #a right to bo represented in the Senate, and _ where parties present their credentials they have a right to be sworn in. Those olaimants who como last have equal rights with those who couio first. Any other oonstruc- H tiou could be made to proveut an organisetion of the Senate forever. Swails demanded whether th? Chair in- M tended to override all laws, all rules aud all precedents, and went on to make a most indiguaut speech against the admission of * these Democratic Senators. Mr. Cochran pat an end to his effusion ? by presenting a letter from T. M. Tolbert withdrawing hjgi)|?|I& tt> the seat of the .^Scuittor frogi Abbeville, and Genera! Gary -also pessontf^ one from Lawrence Cain C l also withdrawing his olaim to General Gary's seat. Colonel Simpson said it was not his intention to override the rules, or thw -laws or a precedents, but he thought if his duty to ; administer the oath to these claimants. If ? ho was wronjf. the Senate was not without its remedy. # . . It ' Tuft lheu-*ftftftf tie Would appeal from the T ruling of the Chair. * Tho Chair said an appeal could only lio T( from a ruling on a poiut of order, and no point of order had been ruled upen. The four Senators were then sworn in, and tho scuatc adjourned till to-day. LOU18IANA MADE FBI*. ? tug troops bkxovkd urom tiik stats hours. Washington, Friday April 20?10 P. M.?Id jj accordance with tho telegraphic promise of to- q day to the members of the Louisiana Commission in New Orleans, the President has just sent the following official letter to the Secretary ef ? Wv: ' 'i # .^rrUxnouTiva Mansion, April 20, 1877. , Sir? Prior to my entering upon the dutieo.of "the Presidency there had been stationed, by or* tier of my predecessor, in the immediate vicinity of the building used as a State House in New Orleans, La., and known as the Mechanics' In- I stilute, a detachment of the United Stotee Infantry. Finding them id that place, 1 have thought proper to delay a decision of the question of their remo7el until I could determine whether the condition of affairs is now such as j- to either require or justify continued military A- - intervention of the Natioual Government in the ? affairs of the State. In my opinion there does not now exist in Louisiana such domestio violence as is contemplated by the Constitution as the ground upon whioh the military power of the National Government may be invoked for the defence of the State, The disputes whieh exist as to the right of oer- T tain claimants to |fee eb'ef execnliveeffioeof I hot M0 State are to be settled and determined, not by the Executive of the United States, bat by each orderly and peaceable methods as may be provi- r - - tied by the Constitution and laws of the State. Having the assurance that no reoort to violence is conicmpiiueu, oui mu, on me contrary, me disputes in question are to be settled by peace- * Ail methods, under and in aooordance with law, I deem it proper to take action in accordance ^ (with the principles announced when I entered upon the duties of the Presidency. You are therefore directed te see that the ptliper orders are Issued for the removal of said troops at an early date from the present position X ? to such regular barracks in the vicinity as may y A be selected for their occupation. * R.
