Vo regard the following resolution,
offered by Mr. Johnson in the Senate
uf the United States, in pji.'l, as
embodying his poi'n;c:.l faith. Jt
committed him to tin' doctrine of

the lie to his previously announced
principles. They would have, hi:n
disregard all constitutional j rim-:; !es

are inoperative and oid as to the
other portion. The following is the
resolution referred to:

To ''preserve the Union, tvith all
the dignity, equality ami rights of
the States unimpairetl," is the policy
to which Mr. Johnson wuz eoim-iitit-il
when he catiio into the i'resi lomy,
and it is this line of policy which !.
is endeavoring to pursue now. Let
him have the earnest sy.-npat'.iy ainl

thus sums up the losses of South Carolina
by the war :
Of Sl."),0UO,000 in bank stock, all is
lo.-t. Of ?.i,00D,0U0 bills iu circulation,
the market value is not more than twenty
per cent. Of three insurance companies,
ncdlier can continue business. Of:20,
OUOjOOO iu railroads, no dividends can be
expected. Of 5,000 houses in Charles
ton, 1 ,500 have been hurtled, and others
ahiost irreparably damaged. Of estates
of decedents aud minors, and of property
in litigation, four fifths are represented
by Confederate securities, and are there
fore valueless.
Of our many merchants, lately of largo
capital and unblemished credit, few havo
a-sots to pay the small debts against them
at the beginuiug of the war. Of the
many large and valuable estates in l'eau
fort District and the adjacent islands, all
have been abandoned, nud many have been
sold for taxes. Of the largo cotton es
tates, still further from the seaboard, ma
ny have been desolated. Of the cotton
on haul at the beginning, and raised dur
ing tlio war (amounting iu value to tit
least 2,000,000), the larger portion lias
beeii taken or destroyed. Of the murk,
lmr.-es, bogs, cattle, farming im; 1 .'ill' nt s,
ulen.-ils aud furniture, aud sil vct-".';u ",
all but an inconsiderable aiuoiie' haw
been consumed, destroyed or tikiu,
Of the money in the bands of our eh; -zens
at the enmmenecuent of the war, or
accruing from the sale of property, or the
practieu of professions, or the payment
of debts, all has been invested iu securi
ties, of which nine-tenths have no possi
ble value. Of the debts uncollected, few
are expected to be paid. Of ilia fuuds
of churches, colleges, charilabh' institu
tions, and societies, all, also, er nearly all,
have been sunk. Of tho lands of ibe
Slate, not held by the (ioverr neiO, bfi
has any market value. Into thi- '. i. I '
lol gulf of ruin has also been sw t ' .
value of four hurdrcd thousand .-lave-,
estimated a few ytais since at UhOdlf"',
1100. And thus, therefore, of the Im.l,
OOOIOO worth of property iu this Slato
in ISliO, but little more than 50,000,000
now remain.
