That it wat a wiae, juat and providential act, fraught with good lor all concerned, it now general ly admitted throughout tbe country. That lb moral obligation rest opoo tbe national government to employ its constitutional powers snd Influence lo establish lb right of tb people it ba emancipated, and to pro tect tbem io tbe enjoyment of tbote rights, wbeo they are infringed or assiileii. is also generally aJmitted.

TUB ELECTORAL C0XHMI0X. Fellow-citizens, we have reached the close of t political contest marked witb tbe excite ment which usually attend tbe contest be- Ltweeo great political parties, wboe members espouse sod advocate with earnest faith re spective creeds. Tbe circumstances were, perhaps, io do respects extraordinary, save in tbe cli'Seoess snd tbe consequent oncer taint of tbe result. For tb first time io tbe history of tbe country, it has been deem ed best, io view of tbe peculiar circumstances of the ease, tbat tbe objections io diepate, with reference to tbe counting of lb electo ral voles, should be refrrred to tbe decision of a tribunal appointed for tbi purpose. Tbat tribunal, established by law for this tole purpose, its members, sll of tbem. of lung established repulatioo for integrity and intelligence, aod wnh tbe exceptioo of those who are also members of the Supreme Ju diciary, chosen equally from both political parties Ui the deliberations, enlightened hy tbe research aod the arguments ol able coun sel, was entitled to Ibe lullest confidence of the American people. Its decisioos have been patiently waited for, and accepted as legally conclusive hy the general judgement of the pnblic. For the present, opinion will widely vary as to the aid m of tbe several conclusions announced by tbat tribunal This is to anticipated io ever; instance where matters of diepate sr mad tb tubieet of arbitration uoler tbe form of law. Human judgment is never onerring. and i rarely re garded a otherwise thao wreng by Ibe un successful party io b coatest. Tbe tact that two great political parties hare, w thi way, teitled dispute in regard to wbicb good meo differ a to the law ao less tbao as to the proper eovrse to be parsued io tolv ing the question in controversy, i to occa sion for general rejoicing. Upon oo point there M entire noaaimity in public aeotimeot that tbe conflicting claim to the Presidency most be amicably and peaceably adjusted. aod tbat when ao adjusted tbe general ac quiescence of tbe Diia ought surety to fol low. It has been reserved for a government of th people wber th right of suffrag is aniversal, to give to the world the first ex ample io history of a great nation ia tbe midst of a straggl of opposing prlie for power, bushing it parte tumult, to- field lb issu of the coolest to sdjuslmeot accord ing to tb hxmt of law, looking tor th ne f tlt rbt UiJ L-r wiM rU I cad vpc SMr, EinwaM e to enr eoeatry tS baAt,aetei.,Tf awrterai tfwper.tv.
