inaugurai Address of Go tv Moses.
The following ia the Inaugural Address
of Gov. Moses, delivered before the Leg
islature Tuesday of last week :
FeUow-Citizeixs of the Senate and House
of Representatives:
You have entered upon the sixth ses
sion of the General Assembly since the
establishment of free government in the,
State of Sooth Carolina.^ ?F ' ' W .'
It should be with ns a source of pro
found gratitude "to Diviso.Providence that
you jaoet -under ?dsp?ce?- thal-" betoken
brighter and better days for the, "whole
people of the State, whose sworn, repre
sentatives you are. The earth has re
warded the labors. of oar husbandmen
with abundant fruits, while all. the varied
forms and. arts of industry are being prosr_
ecuted with hopeful energy amid appar
ently universal peace and order, under our
happy system of government, which guar
antees and maintains liberty regulated by
law.
i j We have been mercifully exempt from
the great and disastrous fires which, during
the past yeir,- have ??iept ".over" so inany ;
portions of our cornnr?ri country, coihrum-'
mg to ashes the garnered wealth of years,
and reducing the rich and the poor to the
same level of indigent suffering.
Let us endeavor, fellowrcitizens, tp de
serve these signal blessings by a I faithful
and conscientious discharge of all the im
portant trusts reposed in us by the people.
In ent?rine; upon the duties of the high
office with which I have been vested by
the generous favor of my iiellow-citizens,
my deep senae of gratituae?to them for the
honor conferred; by, th>ir free suffrages is
associated wi th'a pammi conviction of the
grave responsibility which has been impos
ed upon me by their choice.
I will endeavor to discharge my whole
duty to the whole people of the State. To
thin encH ravol ? fie considerate j udgment.
and active coJ-B_p'eT?tion nf "every member
of the General Assembly, whatever may
be his party creed, and the. open, aid and
assistance of every good citizen in the
commonwealth of South Carolina.
"While I shall not forget that, as a can
didate I represented m my person the
Union Republican party,? whose beneficent
principles are expressed ?h the doctrine of
equal rights'and exact justice to all men,
?jp incorporated in the fundamental law
of the State and nation ; and while under
my and all crrcjrnstances my duty of de
voticu and fidelity to my party shall be
ever present to my mind, I trust that I
nay always remember that, as thc Chief
Magistrate of the State, I represent all
;he people of South Carolina, and that
:he lines which1 lihSit my zeal Tor' their*in- '
terests must, in; honor, be co-extensive
with her boundaries.
Standing here to day in the august
presence of the assembled law-makers of
the State, and of this large multitude,
ivitn thc oath .of office in all its solemn
sanctity fresh upon'-my ttp*? ? pledge my
best efforts to insure that during my ad
ministr?t ion " the Commonwealth" shall
iuffer ao.detriment."
- Gentlemen of. the Senate and House of
Represen tau ves1, let us rededicate our
selves, lo the.great work and -.duty ef the
boor. Let us prove to the world, by thc
enactment of just laws and their impartial
idministrat'JU, that the highest private
liberty here is consonant with the greatest
public good.
Our people are happy in the possession
af a bountiful soil, and a. genial clima tp.
Here the "varied I products- of temperate
md tropic zones grow side by side, while
J ur streams are ; Aashmg; ju; the sunlight
ot a perpetual spring. The imperial plant,
whose fleecy fibres enter into the raiment
' civili uni man throughout thc globe, and
.?hose production presses heavily upon
the very balance wheel* of the commercial
exchanges of the world, b*e herc its native
home ?ad most luxuriant groy/th. Yet
the face of the emigrant is turned &;yay
from our State, and capital, which sets
labor in motion and creates the manufac
tures which contributes to the comfort
md the elevation of man, shrinks back
from us, as if the seals of pestilence were
broken, and its vials emptied out upon
this beautiful land of ours. Hence, near
ly three-fourths of our vast territorial area,
embracing not less than thirty-six thou
sand square miles, lie fallow to-day.
This disastrous result is largely due to
?he ?ll ?piritof political intolerance, which
has been manifested during the past fi v*
years, by tie fortffay governing class in
South Carolina, -yko.sfeli, in great part,
represent the ed^catad mtelfigenos and
landed property of the State.
That intolerance, which was at first ?ic- !
cessfully directed to destroy the financial
credit of the State Government, both at
home and abroad, also proscribed every
ttative and adouted citizen who openly de
clared himself in accord with the political
sentiment* whjcb were entertained by thc;
vuti majority hf the'people of the' Unit?d
Stated, who nav*, by the recent national
campaign, fnruiftlwf ? inost^ memorable
proof of tl. "ir finn defef^)?j.?^?7c>n thatonly
those who aro known to r^vcl ^d main
tain those politic.*! ^tinienb*, mm fH?fi<
in this Republic of; i*U"*- \\
Individual proscr.pt i?^ ?nd buL??un? de
nunciation of the GOVCIIUIKT?, l*>th Bt&te
and Federal, were'sooii follow*? by armed
organizations in various sections tu the
State, which, led by bold, bail and design
ing men, overawed"by tb<?ir numbers and
diring the law-abiding majority, and
scourged ariel slew many cf their fejjow
citizens because of their political opinion*
and porty -affiliation.'
Thcee barbarous acts of a minority of
the minor party in the State continued
with varying inten.flty for a long anddark
period of,' more thau three years. The
Government of the State having made
ineffectual attemp? to check them, both
by'earnest appeals to the reason and hu
inanity of those' who were regarfcd'A* the
political leaders and exponents of tisa .des
perate men engaged in.thehi, and by its
available constabulary force, finally ap
pealed to-the national authority for pro-,
tection to* American citizens from lawless
violence within the limits of the State.
That appel, aller long delay incident
to procuring the necessary legislation by
the Congress of the. United Stales, was ef
fectually reaponded'to. through the Fede
ral Courte, sustained by the military ann
of the Government.
. As the result ofthat interven toon, (af,
which our most profound gratitude is due 3
to the Government of the Unite-! States,
many hundreds of tte persons engaged in
those lawless undertakings, sd abhorrent
to our free institutions and to. the civili- j
zation of .the age, have.been arrested ' and I
imprisoned, under sentence, while many
more charged with having been engaged
in them have, thVough ? sense of fear or
guilt, fled beyond the borders of our State.
Turning away from the recollection, of
thoae scenes which were so .utterly revolt
ing to all true lovers of liberty, I am hap
py io .announce (that peace and good order
now prevail every where within the State,
which seem to be accompanied .by .a re
learning sense of justice, and by a broader
spirit ot toleration in the hi therto ruling
eiassee; which furnish a better guarantee
for their continuance thajj the mere tem
porary presence of the ?word or bftj'pft?t
can ever give among a free people.
The Grand Juries of ?everal counties in
the upper part of the Stale, which were
the ebief scenes of the armed violence aimed
at the vested rights of 'American citizens,
have recently expressed a becoming con
trition, and apparently sincere regret and
sorrow, that* this violence should have been
.permitted to manifest.itaelf, unchecked by
tho'local au th oritiea ir. their several coun

Hi i 5 happy change,'in the section n

action of the Judge of the Sixth C
Fer this he deserves, and should r<
the thanks of our people.
? Let ns in^ulge^?''not^togetha

and that the passions which have so
vexed her people with internecine

war, have sp?Bt;ttoir;Iast reef ripples
in her borders. While ths exhibitio
indulgence of such passions and
might sometimes enable a political
to win, by them the people of the
must always lose.
L I therefore appeal to tho' men of ray

civilization of the age, and cultivate

foster-brothers of the State. They

the great States of the North be encc

have builded mighty cities in the rem
wilderness will level our forests and
place them with blooming harvest fie)
and cover the spots now marked by
sad ruins of disastrous war with the

now running to waste, will then be rai.

who seek abroad the liberty and prospe

I would ahif appea] ?o jtbos,e p.eople

I trust that it will not be deemed inap
propriate for me to refer, on an occasion
like the present, to aaevent which, follow
ing rapidly the official announcement of
the election of thc Republican candidates
in the State and nation, has thrown a
cloud upon even that splendid triumph. I
ajhade to the'death of the Hon. Horace
Grce'.ey. wjjjcll occurred on the evening
of the'20th. fclthnp, and which may be
considered as a nation^ /wlamjly,
. History is but the record of' the liyes
and deeds of the few men who have been
either the benefactors or the' scourges of
their race. This man was in his sphere
illustrious-above all his compeers in the
'service rendered by him to the cause of
human rights, during the past quarter of
a century. Standing at the head of a
great journal, whose paces were dissemi
nated as widely as the English 'language
itself, be did more than any of his con
temporaries to mould the opipioRB of tho
representative men of his g?n?ration, and
to.estabh'sh and .vind?cate the beneficent
system of free government now' incor
porated into the organic law of this na
wn,
Springing from the toiling millions 6f
Ihepeeple, ne never forgot his origin, but
was always, amid his well deserved weajth
and eminence, the outspoken champion of
! the poor and the oppressed, and of tliB
rights of labor. No. man was more un
charitable iii stench than he, and never
was man more charitable in deed, pos
sessed of a hurdy and rugged bonesiy
' which the breath of slander dared not as
aail, even in tho . fierce heat of a political
canvass oustinguM?ed ana
maligin personalities, hjaMver, where prin
ciple (aa he saw it) waiH"|nvoived, sacrific
ed thc right to tho exjji?jent, but always
preferred, in rnaintaim?glhis convictions,
rather to break than to.bend.
His fanie wilt be national property, and
will continue for manyii'gtnerations to re
flect lustre upon his ??gjgtry, while the
I colored race whom he inflect sq much to
relieve from 1 ot?att?l' aM; dvi? bondage,
will, in gratefully cherishing the memory
of bis noble service, foTgft his one. griev
ous fault.
In conclusion,, fellowr'cftizens, I would
Idrfinjustice to the ' i?rrj?Ses of my heart
' should I fail, on such alt lbccasio? as' the
?resent, to recognize ?t?d gratefully ??-1

cause of "free goverrnnajn'rah' South Car?lr
na by my d?BtiB'gmahec?]?^?c?a8bit ! First?
entering the State as a TOSoner of war,
whose command was defeated without
dishonor, he was dblylBpchariged, after
long confinement in a military prison, and
at the close of hostiliti?pa the field re
turned, with promotion i'tfthe rank of Ma
I jor-General of the Unite dat?tes Army, to
administer the affairs nf ? a important bu

Synopsis of Pr^s?ent erante
It commences with a rc-cognit ion of the
blessings which the Ameijean people have
enjoyed within the past;5|ar, the only ex
ception being the great fl)? in Boston. It
refers to the Geneva arbitration and its
satisfactory results, whiih left the two
Governments of Amenait and England
without a shadow on theil friendly rela
tions, which it is sincajfey hoped may
forever remain e<uiaUyi|uiid^ '?It
recommends the immediate creation of a
board of commissioners tit' decide on the
amounts to be paid to < laihiants. It com
pliments Mr. Adams aad'Mr. Bancroft for
their eminent services in the matter of the
Geneva and the San Juan arbitrations;
thc decision in the latter caso leaving the
United States, for the firs'r time, without
any question as to disputed boundaries.
In regard to the fisnerifik?and to our re
lations with the British;?North American
provinces, the President .s>ys that he has
received notice that theflmperial Parlia
ment and the Dominion*<loverhment had
passed laws tocarry thetprovisions of the
treatv of Washington into operation, and
he therefore recommend.legislation by
Congress in the same direction. He speaks
of the friendly . relations of the United
States with all the governments of Eu
rope. He refers to the Vienna interna
tional exposition, teconimends the fitting
up of two national Fisaala to convey the
goods of exhibitors to Trieste, and sug
gests that a proposition bo mado to have
the next great exposition ia this country,
in 1870, at the time of the centennial cele
bration in Philadelphia. ' He refers to ?he
disturbed condition of C ula, and says that
no advance towards pacification in that
island has been made. While the m.*ur
recliou had gainediio advantages and ex
hibited no more of the c-lments of power
or prospective success th?.n a -year ago,
neither had Spain succeeded in repressing
the insurrection. The parties to tue strife
were standiug in thc same attitude as for
a long time past. The continuation of
slayery ja that island he regards as among
the strongest oauv?a of the ' continuance of
the strife: and he thinks th it the abolition
of slavery and the institution of other re
forms there, could not fail to advance the
restoration of peace and order. It was
greatly to be hoped that tho present liberal
Government of Spain will voluntarily
adopt that view.
Referring to our relations with China
and Japan, the President recommends pro?
visions for maintaining four American
youths in each of those countries, as part
of the diplomatic family of ministers. He
gives details pf the revenue received in
the past year, and of thc reduction to thc
Wnonnt 0f over $100,000,000 of the pub
he'debi. 'Hfi iiSPj3&?f! & doubt whether
any further reduction in bu'?i?ou \* prati
cable for the present, and bo recommends
that no moro legislation bo had on that
subject, except to correct errors of omis
sion or commission in the present. laws,
until sufficient time shall have elapsed to
prove that it can be clone, and st.ll leave
sufficient revenue to meet current expen
se?, pay interest on the public debt, and
provide for the sinking fund. He suggests,
also, that the currency shall be, as ?oon as
^Maible, brought to a par with gold.
He uji thai yariqns enterprises will be
brought to the attention'bf Dongres3 for
the cheapening of transportation of pro
duce from'the West to the Atlantic sea
coast, and suggests that steps should be
taken to gain all available information to
insure equitable and judicious legislation.
In this connection, he refeni favorably to
the proposed route to connecttne Mississip
pi Valley with the Atlantic at Charleston
hwd jijayaunah,. by way of the Ohio and.
Tenne'?iaa Rilera : also, to the proposed
extension of the Kanawiia and James Riv-'
er Canal and the Chesapeake and .Ohio
Canal, and to the proposed canal around
Niagara Fails. He says that there should
be an almost continuous system of land
locked navigation from Maine to the Gulf of
j^exicorrnature having provided the greater
part of the obstaUe? to be
overcome being within the aklH of engi
neers. He calls attention to the .Weakness
of the American navy, and endorses the
recommendation of the Secretary of the
Navy in that respect. He recommends
subsidies for steamship lines to Brazil and
and between San Francisco, New Zealand
andAustraba. Also, increase of the sala
ries of heads of bureaus.
He favors the abolition of the franking
priyilpf?, and recommends.ft modificatipn
of ^existing*eyil?. . ft? ?lao fex?ni
meri?s the adoption by Congress of the
best method Of acquiring Mle bj all tele
graphic linea now m. opereiion, and con
necting that service witiV we ptistal ser
vice. It is not probable that the subject
can receive proper considcatioi at' thia
Bession, but be thinks the movement
might be initiated, so that future action
may be had, fair to the Government and
tho private parties concerned, He palin
attentiPR fa a}ariajng jailing off in the
American parrying trade, and says that a
yearly expenditure of ^,000,000 for the
next five years to restore that trade, would
bo a profitaole investment.
Pveferring to tho K*4 Jvlii* Waitera, the
president says ;
Detailed statements of the disburse
ments tbrpug|i the department of justice
will be furnished by the retort of the at.
torney-general, and, though iheae have
been iomewhat . Increased by the 'recent
acts of Congress, o enforce tie rights of
citizens of the United States to vote in
the several States of the Union, and to
enforce the provisions of the fourteenth
amenumeni io wie uousuiuiion 01 im
United States and the enactment th ere.o
I cannot. "question the salutary effect o
those enactments. Reckless and lawlesi
men, I regret to say, have associated them
selves together, in some localities, to de
prive other citizens of those rights g uar
anteed to them by the Constitution of th<
United States, and have committed deed;
of blood and violence, but the prosecutior
and punishment of many of those person:
have tended greatly to the repreaaion o;
such disordera. I do not doubt, that ?
great many of the people in all parts ol
the. country favor the full enjoyment by
all classes of persons of those rights tc
which they are entitled under the consti
tution and laws, and I invoke the aid and
influence of all good citizens to "prevent
those organizations, whose.objects are, by
unlawful means, to interfere with these
rights. I look with confidence" to the
time, not far distant, when ' the obvious
advantages of good order and peace' will
induce an abandonment of all combina
tions prohibited by the acts referred to,
and when it will be unnecessary to carry
prosecutions on-account of lawless doings
of such combinations. Applications have
been made to me to pardon persons con
victed of a violation .of such acts, upon
the ground that clemency, in such cases,
would tend to tranqudiz'e the public mind.
To test the virtue, of that. policy, I am
disposed, as far as my sense of justice will
permit, to give those applications a favor
able consideration, but any action thereon
is not to be construid as indicating any
change in my. determination to enforce,
with vigor, such acts, so long as the, con
spiracies and...combinations therein named
disturb the peace of the country. It is
much to be regretted, and is regretted by
no one more than myself, that a necessity
baa ever existed to execute the enforce
ment act. None can desire more than I1
that the necessity of applying it may'
never again be demanded.
He makes suggestions in regard to the
Indians, that they, shall all be confined to
the territory South ? of Kansas, and that
farms bc secured to them in fee and and
in severalty.
He recommends that a further census
be taken in 1875, but that no reapportion-;
mefit of members of Congress oe made'
tinder it. In only one of the Territories
(Utah j-is the condition of affairs regarded
by the President as unsatisfactory, it had
seemed to be the policy of the Utah Leg.,
islatature to evade all responsibility to
the Government of the United,States, and
even to hold a position hostile to it. He
recommends a careful revisipn of the pres
ent laws, and the enactment of laws,that
will secure peace, the" equality of all citi
zen? before the law, ano the ultimate ex
tinguishment of polygamy. He recom
mends an appropriation to reimburse the
city of Washington for work done in front
of the public reservations, and for the em
bellishment of the public buildings and
grounds. He favors aotion to, give great
e- eclat and success to the observance of
the centennial anniversary of American in
dependence. In regard to civil service, he
says he will carry out the rules during his
term of office, but suggests that tnere
should be direct action of Congress to
make the system binding on his. succ?s
sors, so as to secure to the public service
a practical method of obtaining faithtul
and efficient officers, and. employees. The
reading of the message was completed at
2.50, having occupied one hour and tep
minutes.
The Treasury report says that necessi
ty exists for a new issue of national bank
notes. The Secretary exonerates Assis
tant Treasurep Hillbouse from neglect of
duty in tho stamp division of thu Assi?-,
tant Treasurer of New York. The Sec
retary again recommends the passage of
a bill to amend and consolidate the'nav
igation and customs collecting laws of
tho United States. As the leading pur
suit? of the country aro now stronger
than ever befpre, in the possession of ad
equate eaj) i tal and a supply of Intelligent
laborers, there may be a. moderate re
duction, from timo to time, in thc rato of
dpties, as the diminishing oxpms.es of
Government shall permit, without either
alarming capital or injuring labor. Ile
says tbe circulation of the banks should
bo fixed and limited, and that tho power
to chango tho volume of paper in circu
lation within the limits established by
law should yetnoin "iii tho Treasury Do
partaient, A degree of flexibility in the
vol unto of currency is essential for two
reasons-first, the business of the de
partment cannot be transacted properly
if a limit is fixed, and the power to raise
the circulation above or reduce it below
that limit is denied ; secondly, there ls a
necessity, every autumn, for moving the
crops without delay from tho South and
West to the sea board, that they maj- bo
on hand for export and consumption as
wanted.
The problem ls to find a way of increas
ing the currency for moving the crops
and diniinishingitatouco when that work
ls dono. This ls a necessary work, aiid
inasmuch as it cannot be confided to \hc
banks, the power should bp ^up>?Vl. in <

tliat tai cquntiy ?s not prepared tn sus-,
tain tito primly of contraction, tho So?rd*
tary consider* tho moans bv which thc
value of our curroncy may bo improved.
The basis of a policy of improvement
must be found in a sturdy refusal to add
to the paper circulation, until it hi of thc
samo value essentially as coin. This be >
ing accepted is th ?j settled purpose of Jtb a
Country, there can be no permanent in
crease *?f the dlffcrohco Between paper
and coin; and an opportunity will bc
given for tho iuilitence of natural causes,
tending,,upon tho whole, to a batter fi-.,
nanci lcondition. All legislation limited
in its operation to the paper issues of thtf
Government, whether Loaring interest
or not, and which in its effoots shall, tend
to diminish the market value of coin,
will bo found, upon analysis, to contain
a plan for contrjwlinjr tho volume of pu-'
per currency; and all legislation so limi
ted, which does not contain auch a plan,
will prove ineffectual. Tho Secretary,"
without proceeding to the discussion of
th? general subject of resuming specie
payments, thinks all will have been gain
ed" that is of value when, the Treasury
shall be prepared to pay the demand
notes of tue Government in coin, nnd tho
banks shall be prepared to pay their notes
either in coln or legal tender notes ; and
thon our good fortuno will clearly ?ppo?f
in this, that our paper currency is not
exclusively Qf national bank notes,' nor
exclusively of United Staten notos. ? \ .

The Mixed School Question at the North..
The N. Y. Tribune says : " It seems to
bo decided, at last, that the fourteenth
amendment does not pr?vido for every
possible conflict of opinion between white1
abd colored people. In considering the
education of the children of the two
races in the same schools; twp, Northern
courts haye recently held that tho ques
tion belongs to tho school board for de
cision, and not to tho amendment or to
tho citizen. Their arguments are that
atty classification which preserves sub
stantially equal school advantages ls not
prohibited by either the State-or Federn^
constitution ; that the citizen cannot d?
tate where or by what teacher. h$s cJb.U-.
dren shall be tofl?hj \ fwd that '-'equaity
of rights;* does nut imply that white and
oolored'children shall be educated in the
same school any more than lt ? implies
the education of both sexes in the same
