THE GENERAL AMNESTY.
Washington, July 3, P. M.
Whereas, Io the month of Julv, A. D. 1861, in
accepting the oondition of civil war which was
brought about by insurrection and rebellion in several
of the States, which constitute the United
States, the two Houses of Congress did solemnly
declare that the war was not waged, on the part
of the Government, in any spirit of oppression,
nor for any -purpose of conauest or subjugation,
nor for any purpose of overthrowing or interfering
with the rights or established institutions of the
States, but only to defend and maintain the supremacy
of the Constitution of the United States,
> and to preserve the Union with all the dignity,
w equality and rights of the several States unimpaired
; and that, so soon as those objects should be
accomplished, the war on the part of the Government
should cease :
And whereas, The President of the United
States has, heretofore, in the spirit of that declaration,
and with the view of seenring for it ultimate
and complete effect, set forth several proclamations,
offering amnesty and pardon to persons who were
concerned in the aforesaid rebellion, which proclamations,
however, were attended with prudential
reservations and exceptions, then deemra necessary
and proper, and wnich proclamations were respectively
issued on the 8th day of December, 1863;
on the 20th day of March, 1864; on the 20tb day
of May, 1865, and on the 7th day of September,
1867:
And whereas, The said lamentable civil war has
long since altogether ceased, with an acknowledgement
bv all of the States, of the supremacy of the
Federal Constitution ana the government there??J?.

grounds to apprehend a renewal of the said civil
war, or any foreign interference, or any unlawful
resistance by any portion of the people of any of
the. States to the Constitution and laws of the
United" States;
And whereas, It is desirable to reduce the standing
army and to bring to a speedy termination of
military occupation, martial law, military tribunals,
abridgement of freedom of speeeh and of the press
and suspension of the privilege of hale* corpus and
* the right of trial by jury?such encroachments
upon our free institutions, in times of peace, being
dangerous to public liberty, incompatible with the
individual rights of the citizen, contrary to the
genius and spirit of our republican form of government
and exhaustive of the national resources:
And whereas. It is better believed that amnesty
and pardon will tend to secure a complete and universal
establishment and prevalence of municipal
law and order, id conformity with the Constitution I
of the United States, and to remove all appearances
or presumption of a retaliatory or vindictive
policy, on the part of the Government, attended
by unnecessaiy disqualifications pains, penalties,
confiscation, and disfranchisements, ana, on the
contrary, to promote and procure a complete fraternal
reconciliation among the whole people, with
due submission to the Constitution and laws:
Now therefore, be it known that I, Andrew
Johnson, President of the United States, do, by
virtue of the Constitution, and in the name of the
people of the United States, hereby proclaim and
declare unconditionally and witbout reservation, 10
all and to every person, who directly participated
in the late insurrection or rebellion, excepting such
person or persons as may be under presentment or
indictment in any Court of the United States, having
competent jurisdiction, upon a charge of treason
or other felony,, a full jMirdon and amnesty for
the offence of treason against the United States? or
of adhering to their enemies, during the late civil
war, with restoration of all rights of property ex*
cept as to slaves, and except also as to any property
of which any person may have been legally divested
under the laws of tha United States.
In testimony whereof, I have signed these presents
with my hand, and have caused the seal of the
United States to be hereunto affixed.
Done at the City of Washington,
: : the 4th day of July, in the year of
; eal. . qur one thousan?i eight hundred
and sixty-eight, and of the Independence
of the United States of America the 93a.
By the President ANDREW JOHNSON.
Wm. H. Seward, Secretary of State.
NATIONAL DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION.
We copy the following telegrams from the Richmond
Dispatch, ;
New York, July 4,1868.
It is a question whether the two-thirds rule has
already wen adopted, but there seems to be no
doubt that it will be.
The Southern delegates are pleased to find the
Northern Democrats more reliable than they had
feared. They manifest the best spirit towards the
South.
The resolution admitting Territories to representation
was defeated.
This renders it clear that they regarded ours as
States in the Union.
Pendleton is the leading candidate by loug odds.
The only doubt Is as to whether he can get twothirds.
I regard Chase as out of the question. His
^ friends are still hopefuL
All business was suspended in this city to-day.
The celebration of the day was magnificent Thousands
upon thousands thronged the Central Park,
Jones's Woods, and the streets. Fire-works,
rockets, cannon-firing, &c.
The Virginia delegation will throw away their
vote on the first ballot, and more if necessary.
New York, July 4.?The weather is intensely
hot, and the galleries of Tammany Hall are densely
crowded. There is a great crowd outside striving
to obtain admittance, but a strong police force
keeps them in order.
The Convention was called to order at twenty
minutes past 12 o'clock by August Belmont, chairman
of'the Democratic National Committee; af
ter saying that the country looked to the Convention
by means of the Democratic organization to
save the country. Mr. Belmont nominated Hon.
Henry S. Palmer, of Wisconsin, temporary chairman,
and the nomination was carried.
Francis P. Blair, Senator Patterson, ex-Senator
Bayard, and many men prominent in Southern
politics before the war, are present as spectators.
A large number of ladies are in the galleries.
The crowds in the vicinity of Tammany Hall today
rendered the streets almost impassable.
There were over one thousand applications today
for admission to the Convention.
The Pendleton forces still preserve their enthu^
siasm and confidence. The Johnson men are few
in number, but very determined. Hancock's supporters
seem to be in a bad temper.
Rumors of a letter from Chase bearing strongly
on States rights excites attention.
The southern delegates applaud Johnson for his
amnesty proclamation enthusiastically.
The rules of the Democratic Convention of 1864
were adopted. The Territories are excluded from
any voice in the Convention.
Committees on credentials, resolutions, and permanent
organization were appointed, and after the
reading ef the Declaration of Independence the
Convention adjourned till Monday.
The weather has been intensely hot all day.
In the Soldiers' and Sailors' Convention, Hen.
McClernan. of Illinois, was chosen temporary chairman.
He welcomed true soldiers, whether from
the North or South. Resolutions were proposed
declaring the Convention merely auxiliary to the
National Democratic Convention. General W. B.
Franklin, of Connecticut, was nominated President
of the Convention.
STATE NEWS.
A gossipy correspondent of the Mercury writing
from Columbia on the 4th inst., gives some interesting
facts about the new order of things about to
be inaugurated there: We extract a few para|
graphs:
The inauguration of the Governor is expected
on Monday. A number of citizens, it is understood,
will publish a manifesto, calling upon the
people of the State to stand by the new State government.
Among these I have heard the names
of Messrs. Jack Caldwell, J. P. Thomas, Daniel
Miller, of Columbia, and Mr. F. W. Dawson, of
your city.
F. J. Moses, Jr., will not find it as easy to get
the speakership as he did his elevation to the office
of chief organizer of the negro militia. There
are two other Richmonds in the field: 1st, R. B.
Elliott, a black negro, from Massachusetts, but
now a man and a brother from Edgefield. Whip
per was spoken of a few days ago, but it is said ne
has withdrawn in favor of his fellow-negro, the notorious
Elliott 2d, Jencks the rice planter, kinsman
of Pillsbury, the eloquent ex-quartermaster,
has loomed up as a formidable rival, and Moses
may not get to the promised land after all?although
he has for some time had exclusive possession
of the office on the slate.
Generals Scott and Canbyand staff are expected
here on Monday. Governor Orr is here waiting
to be delivered of his message. This message, by
the bye, I learn, is one of the longest ever sent to
a South Carolina Legislature?not less than eleven
columns of minion in the Mercury. Gov. Orr, I
suppose, bears in mind the fact that the new government
being raw at the business needs copious
instructions, and in this document he very benevolently
gives his parting paternal advice.
Among the many rumors in circulation here today,
was one stating that the Rads intend to keep
the Democratic members of the House out in the
cold. In Louisiana they tried this same trick a
few days ago, bv requiring thb members of the
Legislature to take the test oath. The General
Commanding, however, overruled this, and the
Democrats were sworn in. I do not see what the
Rads expect to gain by such a course. Surely one
hundred and five Radicals are not afraid of fifteen
Democrats. Moreover, should these fanatics attempt
such proscription, we do not believe GenCanby
would permit it
Mtyor D. T. Corbin, United States District Attorney,
is spoken of as a candidate forjudge of the
Supreme Bench. His friends are active, and both
he and they feel confident of success. This is as it
should be. With a carpet-bag Legislature, and a
carpet-bag Executive, it is but right and proper
that the judiciary also should partake of the same
character.
WASHINGTON NEWS.
The bill of Mr. Edmunds in reference to the
votes of the Southern States in the electoral college
was called up by the author in the Senate today,
and speedy action pressed upon it in order
that it may become a law over the veto before the
adjournment. The true object of the bill is to
place it in the power of the majority of Congress
to receive or exclude the votes of the Southern
States for President, iust as it suits their partisan
purposes. The manly speech of Mr. Trumbull
in opposition to it leads to the hope that there may
not be enough of revolutionary sentiment in the
Senate te nasa it r?rer the President's head. Mr.
Trumbull took the grouud that Congress bad no
power to assume any supervision of the votes, but
By the constitution its duty was confined to the
simple conn ting of the votes.
Mr. Stevens having somewhat modified his
proposition to divide Texas, the reconstruction
committee has agreed to report in favor of divi
ding it into three States
Some sixty or more clerks, of both sexes, in the
Treasury Department received their walking papers
to-day. Work is slack and appropriations
have run out
The President has issued an order, to take effect
immediately, relieving Gen. McDowell from command
in Mississippi and Arkansas, to be superseded
for the present by General Gillera.
The Senate judiciary committee at their meeting
this morning, in consequence of the delay in
the presentation to the House of the Butler reI
port, again postponed action on the nomination of
Mr. Evarts for Attorney General.
A caucus of radical Senators, lasting nearly two
hours, was held this morning. The principal subject
of discussion was the funding bill, many of
the Senators objecting strongly to the action of Mr.
Sherman in seeking to attach it as a rider to the
pending appropriation bill Mr. Sherman labored
earnestly to convince his associates that as a
party measure it was absolutely essential to act on
the bill, and rehearsed his former opinions that the
party cannot afford to go into the presidential elec
tioD without tinkering somewhat at the hnanees. So
great is the desire for the earliest possible adjournment
that Mr. Sherman's arguments were unavailing,
and yielding to the overwhelming sentiment
of those who were present, he at last reluctantly
consented to withdraw the bill as an amendment,
with the promise given him that the bill
will be taken up as a separate measure after the
disposal of the tax bill. Mr. Sherman, however,
gave notice that he would call up the funding bill
as soon as the appropriation bill was disposed of.
From present indications, the passage or the bill
does not seem at all probable.
A LIVE NEWSPAPER.
There is a great deal of misapprehension about
the "metaphysics" of the "public press;" none at
all about the merits of a'good newspaper. Tall
writing concerning its "liberty" has berome a habit
with many of us, and others of us do not stop to
think just what it means. A newspaper is a vehicle,
like an omnibus, or street car, or railroad.
It is intended for the convenience of people. They
use it as it is most convenient to them; and, provided
it be commodious and goes the way they
want to go, they care little who edits it. Hence,
the advantage of the anonymous; for all of us are
desperately selfish at bottom. The journal is most
successful which best serves the interests of the
largest class of the community without regard to
individual likes or dislikes.
The day when a newspaper was an embodiment
of the peculiar views of its editor, has passed
away. One man can no longer edit a daily journal.
The entire business has been multiplied by ten,?
editors, printers, reporters, expenses. Tho best
newspaper is that which gives the freshest news and
more of it at the lowest market price. The rule
that governs bacon governs the press. There is
no spread-eagleism about it. There is no mystery.
It is an open-and-shut affair like a Barlow knife.
The best paper gets the most readers; and of consequence
advertising flows in upon it, and so it
prospers.
Nor is this question of advertising a question of
favor. It is, like all the rest, a question of selfish
interest. "Drumming," as it is called, is merely
alms-seeking; and a newspaper which has to
"drum" for its livelihood had better "shut up
shop.'' It is a precarious vocation. Wearies the
public. Wears out its patrons. Does no permanent
ffood. Let a press prove itself livest, freshest,
cheapest, and it is sure to have readers; and
whenever.the keen, unerrimr business discernment
catches a whiff of this pleasant breeze, it pours in
its advertising patronage. The day for fighting
duels is over. The editor is no longer an exception,
but a matter of fact. He is as other men,
only he has to get up earlier, go to bed later, and
work about twice as nard.
Journalism, as we observed the other day in the
course of some observations on the business of the
modern reporter, has undergone a complete revolution
within the last ten or a dozen years. So
much so, indeed, that if an rtjual ratio of improvements
be kept up, there is little reason to doubt
that the daily press will ultimately crowd what is
called ephemeral literature from the market It
will itself thenceforward sijpply mental diet to the
public, which will have no leisure for books after
it has read the morning paper.
Louisville Journal.
POLITICAL GOSSIP.
As the period approaches for the Legislature to
assemble, there is a good deal of stir among the
Republicans with reference to the offices to be filled
during the session. Candidates are as thick as
blackberries, and whatever promises most largely
of profit will be the subject of extensive purchase
ana sale.
We understand that the contest for the Speakership
of the House will be animated, if not bitter.
The prominent white candidate therefor is Mr. F.
J. Moses, Jr., but it is said that the colored members
propose to run one of their own race?probably
W. J. Whipper, of Beaufort. Indeed, the
statement has been openly made by some of them
that "this thing of giving all the fat offices to the
white men was about played out. and as they had
a majority of the votes in the Legislature they in
tended that, their color should have a fair showing,
especially in the race for Speakership." We hear
that Mr. Moses was emphatically told that he
might haul down his colors, for the determination
was to make a black man the presiding officer of
the body. The disaffection has assumed such a
threatening shape as to give agood deal of concern
to the leaders; because, if the issue is broadly
drawn, the result will come before they are prepared
for it, and may prove 'disadvantageous to
themselves and the party. With a very few exceptions
among white men who would affiliate with
the other side, a break of this character would divide
the household, and array white against black?
a contest in which the negro must go to the wall.
Endeavors are being made to conceal the disturbance,
and to have it settled in caucus; but the colored
members are bold in the assertion of their
"rights," and are likely to make a fierce stand upon
them.
Reference has been made to the message of Governor
Orr. It is not known definitely whether it
will be delivered "as information" to the Legislature,
or addressed to General Canby as the military
custodian of the State. Even if Governor Orr had
not been removed by the military authorities "to
simplify matters," there was a disposition on the
part of the General Assembly to ignore him altogether,
lest his recognition as an outgoing Executive
would have seemed a recognition of the "rebel
rule" of President Johnson. As the matter now
stands, the vast amount of valuable statistical information
concerning the condition of the State,
which the Governor has prepared as an official document,
must emanate, if at all, from a private individual.
and be addressed like any other information
to the Legislature, or to General Canby, as he
may determiue. There is too much of public interest
in the document for it to be hidden under a
bushel, and thecommunity will be anxious to know
the condition of affairs in South Carolina, prior to
her transfer into the untried hands of the new
regime. In our judgment, the most appropriate
course to be pursued, is for Governor Orr to ren
der this account .of his stewardship through the
public press "To the People of South Carolina."
The rivalry for the United States senatorship
appears to be confined chiefly to Dr. A. G. Mackey
and Mr. F. A. Sawyer. Parson French is also in
the ring, but his chances, from all we learn, are
few aud far between.
The irrepressible C. P. Leslie, senator from
Barnwell, is in the city working like a beaver, it is
believed, in the interest of Dr. Mackey. Fond of
collecting personal statistics and using them in debate.
never mincing words when he has any truth
to be told, he is as warm a partisan as he is a bitter
opponent So that we may expect lively discussions
in the Legislature when the canvass commences
on its floor.
The United States marshalship is promised to a
white man. What will become of Mr. Epping,
the incumbent, we have not heard, but he will
probably have something to say in the matter.
It is declared upon good authority that Timothy
Hurley has been assigned the position of editor in
chief of a new Republican paper which is to be established
in Columbia. Tnc office will be supported
by Government advertising and the printing of
the Legislature. It will be a "stockholders' enterprise,"
and the prominent members of the party
are represented to be earnest in the promotion
of the enterprise to the extent of a liberal contri
bution each.?Charleston News.
t
A BRILLIANT MARRIAGE.
For several weeks past the fashionable circles at
Washington have been tnuch interested, in an ticiSation
of the marriage of Senator Hendereom of
lissouri, to Miss Mar? Foote, daughter of lion.
Elisha Foote, of New York, and head of the Appeal
Board of the Patent Office. Miss Foote, for
several winters past, has been one of the belles jf
Washington, and tne announcement of her engagement
with the Senator from Missouri, created
nuite a sensation among the elite of Washington.
A few days since over six hundred cards were issued
to the friends of the couple, for the marriage
ceremony, which took place to day, at twelve o'clock,
at the National Hotel, and was one of the
most brilliant affairs ever witnessed at the national
capital. The magnificent parlors of the hotel were
tastefully and profusely decorated with rare and
fragrant flowers, whose rich perfume filled the atmosphere.
The heavy lace curtains at the windows
and over the archway connecting the two
parlors were covered with ivy and evergreens, while
rich bouquets distributed about the room?prominent
among which was a magnificent one presented
by the ladies of the Executive Mansion?fairly
transformed the drawing rooms to flowery gardens
of exquisite beauty.
Immediately opposite to the archway ? and at the
far end of the parlors, a canopy of white lace, enwreathed
with white lilies, was erected over a large
mirror, beneath which the marriage ceremony took
fdacc in the presence of a most distinguished and
ashionable assemblage. The President of the
United States and General Grant, Chief Justice
Chase, eminent statesmen, celebrated diplomatic
Cabinet Ministers, distinguished army and nary officers.
and urominent officials, with hundrals of
beautiful and accomplished ladies, whose rich and
costly toilets wonderfully added to the effectiveness
of the scene, were present The Chinese Embassy
also attended.
The guests began to arrive slowly shortly after
eleven o'clock, and bv noon the parlors were crowded.
The Senate took a recess to attend.
At twelve the bridal party entered and marched
through the parlors beneath the canopy above described,
where the ceremony took place, Rev. Dr.
Pinckney, of the Church of the Ascension (Episcopal,)
officiating; Senator James A. Fowler, of
Tennessee, and Mr. F. Arnold, of New York, acting
as groomsmen : Miss Catharine Beach, of Saratoga
Springs, New York, and Miss Angusta
Foote, sister of the bride, as bridesmaids.
The bride was dressed in a very heavy white
silk, with gored skirt, full Empress train, and low
corsage, with lace trimming. Over this was a dress
of pure white illusion, hanging in graceful folds and
forming a pleasant contrast to the rich silk underdress.
It was finished with two narrow flounces
around the bottom of the skirt. A handsome sash,
with bows of white silk, encircled the waist. Her
rich curls were surmounted with a handsome
wreath of orange blossoms, from which was suspended
an elegant tulle veil, which fell behind to
the hem of the dress. .
After an elaborate reception the bridal party left
this evening for the North?Cincinnati Commercial.

at 28J cents, with a strong upward tendency. But
little Cotton is offering and is taken up to iill orders

NEW YORK, July 3.?Cotton Arm at 32 cents.
CHARLESTON, July 3.?There was a good demand
and prices were quite firm. Sales 320 bales
at from 26 to 314 cents.
Corn.?The arrivals from Tennessee by rail continue
in fair supply, and prices of mixed mav be
quoted at about $1.23 to $1,24 per bushel, wefght,
sacks included, by the car load from the depot,
and $1.25 to $1.26 per bushel for white. In a few
instances sales have taken place at concessions on
these prices, but they are perhaps exceptional and
hardly quotable. Some 3,000 bushels of Baltimore
white were sold to arrive at $1.30per bushel
weight, sacks included.
Flour.?The continued favorable appearance
of the crop, and the consequent general exf>ectation
of lower rates, causes much caution on the
part of buyers, and they only purchase to meet
immediate wants. The general tendency of prices
is to decline, and most holdersare free sellers,
even at moderate concessions. It is difficult to
give reliable rates, but Northern and Western
brands may be quoted nominal at $10 per barrel
for super, $11 per barrel for extra, and $12 to $13
per barrel for family. There have been no receipts
of new Southern worthy of mention, and until
receipts increase quotations are nominal.
Bacon.?The demand for all classes of meat continues
very light, and prices tend rather in favor
of the purchaser. We quote prime shoulders at
144 to 15 cents pqr pound, prime rib sides at 17 to
174 cents, and prime clear rib sides at 18 cents per
pound.
Salt.?Holders, from store, are asking $1.70 to
$1.80 per sack.

A STORY OP GHARLE8T0H AID THE WAR.
-/ ?. . i/J jiiiT
a BY J. WITHER SPOON EIIV4N,
" j '! ?j. . ?; tv: fa-.: odvr
f jhe issue of the YORKVILLE ENQUIRER
br the 4th of JUNE, will be commenced the
Ucfltion of the above thrilling and Interesting
velette, written.expreesly for its <joiu*?na, bjr
one of the most popular authors of thty State. The
principal scenes of the story are laid in Charleston
' and vicinity, and the story cannot fail to prove interesting
to all who are familiar with the eventi
which occurred in that localitv'dutfng the Tate
war. . ^
One of the most painful circumstances connected
with the heroic defence of Charleston, during
its three years of siege, Is to be found in :be fket,
that daring all this time, there were persons In the
cilv. "in high, life.'1 who were engaged as spies In
sending information to the besiegers. Drawings
of the fortifications were furnished, weak point*
noted, and the movements of troops Indicated as
soon as begun, and the fleet notified of the time
of arrival and departure of blockade running weasels.
So cautiously did these emissaries of. the
enemy conduct their work, that fbr along time the
skill of the most eminent detectives was baffled
in their endeavors to break up the illicit correspondence.
These spies were the source of extreme
annoyance to the Commanders in Charleston,
and the information they were enabled to fur
nun, oiten tnwartea their nest matured designs
upon the enemy. An a proof of the completeness
or this conspiracy, it may be remarked, that Utfi
daily papers of the city were frequently read on
board the blockade fleet, the same day of their
publication. ; * j'l .'.j< . ,:i *
The author of "ISOLETTE, OR THE FEMALE
SPY," has token the principal characters
and incidents in this aflhlr, and under assumed
names, has presented them in the form of a thrilling,
and well written romance, historic and Imaginative.
The circumstances of thfc'story-are
detailed as beginning on James Islaad,.and<in nopnectiou
with some of the South Carolina. Reg^
raents stationed there. After manv thrilling adventures
in which the "femaie spy'^flgurea largely,
the heroes of the plot follow their regiment to
Virginia, before the walls of .'Petersburg. The
surrender of General Lee's Army in 1886, finds
them again among the Santee hills, where the narrative
closes.

complete, should send;In ,their 'subscriptions
