MESS AUE PROM I'UKSIDKM
URANT.
HE RECOMMENDS CONGRESS TO PROVIDE FOI
ELECTIONS IN VIRGINIA, AND MISSISSIPPI, AM
EXPRESSES THE RELIEF THAT THE RBPUHLt
CAN CONSTITUTIONS WILL RB ADOPTED.
WASHINGTON, April 7.-The following
message of the President was roceived bj
Congress, at 1 o'clock, this afternoon ;
7b ?te Se?ale and House of Representatives
While I am aware that tho time in whici
Congress proposes now to remain in sessioi
is very brief, and that it is its desire, as fa:
as is consistent with the public interest, U
avoid entering upon the general business o
legislation, there is ono subject which con
ceros so deeply thc welfare of the country
that I deem it my duty to bring it befor
you.
I havo no doubt that you will concur wit)
me iu the opinion that it is desirable to rc
store tho States which were engaged iu th
rebellion to their proper relations to th
Government and the country at as early
period as the people of these States shall b
lound willing to become peaceable and ordei
ly communities, and to adopt and maintai
such constitutions and laws as will effectuoll
secure the civio and political rights of a
persons within their borders.
The authority of the United States, whic
has been vindicated and established by ii
military power, must undoubtedly be as?
serted for the absolute protection of all i
citizens in the full enjoyment of the freedoi
and security whioh is the object of n repul
Hean government. But whenever tho pe<
pie of a rebellions State are ready 1
enter in good faith upon the accomplisl
ment of this, object, in entire conformit
with the constitutional authority of Coi
' gross, it is certainly desirable that all caus
of irritation should be removed as prompt
as possible, that a more perfect Union may 1
established, and tbe oountry be restored
peaoe and prosperity.
Tho convention of the people of Virgin
whioh met in Bichmond on Tuesday,Decet
ber 3d, 18G7, framed a constitution for th
State which was adopted by the Conventh
on the 18th cf April, 1868, nnd I desire i
spectfully to call the attention of Congre
to the propriety of providing by law for t
holding of an election for that State at soi
time between the months of May nnd Ju
next, under the direotion of the milita
commander of the district, at which t
adoption of that constitution shall be sr
mitted to the citizens of the States. And
this should seem desirable I would reco
mend that a spare vote be taken upon su
parts as may be thought expedient, and tl
at the came time, and u nder the same autb
ity, there shall be an election for the offic
provided under such constitution, and tl
the constitution, or such parts thereof,
shall have been adopted by the people
submitted to Congress on the first Moue
of December next for its consideration,
that if the same be then opproved the nee
sary steps will have been taken for the i
toration of tho State of Virginia to its p
per relations to tbe Union.
I am led to make this recommendati
from the confident hope and belief that
people of that State, now ready to co-op
ate with the national government in bril
ing it again into such relations to the Un
as it ought, as soon as possible to establ
and maintain, and to give to all its peo
those equal rights under the law, wb
were asserted in tho declaration of indep
dence in the words of one of the most ill
triona of its sons.
I desire, also, to ask the consideratioi
Congress to tbe question whether there
not just ground for believing that the C
stitution framed by a Convention of
people of Mississippi for that State, i
once rejected might not be again s
mitted to the people of that State in '.
manner, and with the probability of
same result.

GENERAL LONGSTEET.-Tho New "?ork
Tribune deprecates tho argument against
tho confirmation of General Longstreet
(since confirmed) as collector of customs at
New Orleans. It says: Ho will do his duty;
ho will servo tho country, and no publie in?
terest will be iujured by his holding this
office. Tiiat is tho practical consideration.
A higher thought is, that by tho confirma?
tion of General Longstreet, nothing remains
of the past rebellion but a bitter memory.
Tho duty of tho present is peace and
loyalty. If you intend to keep tho dark me?
mories alive, you will invoke thc vengeance
of tho Government; if you mean to forgot
tho past and accept tho responsibility of tho
present, assisting the restoration of tho
Union, and giving to tho Constitution and
thu laws a sincero and ear neut support, then
you ure our fellows in citizenship, and share
with us tho blessings of the Union.
