"I have boon now for inore than i yeaw.

the reconstruction acts of Congress, in thi
State. I hove had to sioleet and appoint
registering officers, as well as civil ollioers,
in the different counties throughout lie
State. In some of thr coituties I have been
able to find one, and only one, in- soei two,
and int some three oon of either race who
could read and writo, and who coul at tle

SchoJield to the Scalawags.
The foregoing passage in the speech of
GQneral Schotield to the Into Convention
held in this city by order of Congress is one
of tle proudest tiibuto~'s ever poid to the
Stato. He[or people rcsisted tihe Federal
Goverinment at her cotumand, upon a point
of honor and principlo ; but beingovercomo,
they gracefully siihmittel, and gave in their
adhesion to the Natiounal (overnmont. For
party purposes the domiinant faction in
Washington lisfranchiiseid her best Aitizens
.ad prescribed an oath of ofli o to which
none Who obeyed ttio voice of their Stnte
could with hinesty subscribe. But they
were :tot to be swerved fron their integrity
by the hope of reward orthe threat of harsh
or punishment ; and thus we have thiN grand
I libute from General Schofield to the State.
With the iron-lad oath, Genieral Scho.
filei truly told the Convention that it
would lie "inmpossible to inaugurate a govern
ment .;" yet tle obstimate and reckless ina.
jority treated his reimonstranes with c0eon.

which mutm ostacise from publ ic service

people with thie denunciation of the Com
miander of the district, as an utterly im.
practicable thiing-ns a basis up1)on1 which
itis "impossible to innlugurato a govern

Thits Virghdi, by her integrity and con
stancy, is bringing confusion upon her per
scouti0is. She wil continue to preserve ler
fair nsme : and whenever sho is solicited to
