Among the visitors who called on the
President, on Tuesday morning last, were
the Hon. J. P. Reed aud Hon. W. D'. Simp?
son, of Sonth Carolina, who were presented
by the Hon. Thomas L>. Jones, of Ken?
tucky. During the interview Mr. Reed
read, for himself and Mr. Simpson, the fol?
lowing paper in relation to the condition of
affairs in that State:
"We have called, Mr. President, as mem?
bers elect from the old Commonwealth of
South Carolina to the Forty-first Congress
of the United States, to tender for our?
selves, and tho people we have been chosen
to represent, our congratulations upon your
auspicious assumption of the office of Chief
Magistrate of the American Union. We are,
sir, natives of the State from whence we
come, and claim, as representative men of
its ancient population, to be familiar with
their political and material condition, their
sentiments, and aspirations for the future.
"Politically, in addition to the loss of
nearly all thoir pecuniary resources, they
have, by the results of the war, been prac?
tically excluded, for moro than three years,
from the family of States, and the blessings
of civil government; but having been re?
cently restored to thoir original position in
the Union, upon the plan which the Con?
gress in its wisdom saw fit to adopt,
without concurring in tho manner of their
restoration, they have accepted the accom?
plished fact in good faith, and aro as loyal
to the Government of a common country as
any other equal number of the American
people.
"Their condition, socially, is and has
been one of profound peace; and, aside
from a fow isolated acts of personal violence,
that have occasionally been committed in
different parts of the State, snob as are un?
fortunately of too common occurrence in
all sections of the Union, good order has
prevailed, and tho laws, Stato and Federal,
euueted for their government by bodies in
which they wore unrepresented, have beon
respected, obeyed and euforced without the
slightest tendency to tumult or violence.
"Materially thc abundant harvests that
have been vouchsafed to them, and thc
high prices at which their leading staples
have ruled, have relieved them iu a great
measure from their embarrnssmenls, and
opened up to their imaginations tho dawn
of a prosperity so eutirely unexpected as to
lead them to hope that events which were
deemed tho most crushing evils may turn
out to have been iudeed 'blessings in dis?
guise. '
"lu sentiment, whilst almost the entire
nativo white, end a largo number of the
colored population, have affiliated and been
identified with tho national Democratic
party, their fetters aro not of such con?
trolling strength as to induce or permit a
factious opposition to tho party in power,
or hinder them from yielding a hearty sup?
port to all such measures of your adminis?
tration as will, in their judgment, tend to
develop the resources aud promote the in?
terests of a common country.
"Their hopes nud aspirations for tho fu?
ture aro that their Stato may henceforth
occupy precisely the same relatious to the
Government, uuder a common Constitution
and laws, that is occupied by the other
States of tho Union; and to this end that
tho laws imposing burdens and conferring
benefits on the people may be uniformly
enforced, persons and property protected,
tho peace preserved inviolate, the unity and
perpetuity of tho Government maintained,
and that uninterrupted fraternity, prosperi?
ty and happiness may attend the whole
American people, East, West, North and
South, without regard to race, color, or
previous condition. And such, sir, are. tho
sentiments of tho hearts of ourselves and
our people."
Io response to which, tho President re?
marked:
"GENTLEMEN: Tho sentiments expressed
in that paper should meet tho approbation
of every law-abiding and Union-loving citi?
zen of the country."
