They do not go for nothing ; they were not unnecessary ; nor do I approach them with criticism. But they are not the whole drama. Other acts are required for its com- pletion. What they shall be, depends in part on the wisdom of Congress to determine. The doctrme of the President that — in the steps preliminary to re-organizing a State which is not, and has not been theoretically cut off from the Union — he must recognize its own organic law, antecedent to the rebelhon, need not be contested. I... adhere, quite as strictly as he, to the logical consequences of that doctrine. I agree that the Rebel States ought to come back again into the exercise of their State functions and the enjoyment of their representative power — by the action and by the votes, of the same 1866.] SENATE— No 2. 25 class of persons, namely, the same body of voters, or tenants of political rights and privileges, by the votes, action or submission of whom, those States were car- ried into the rebellion. But, yet, it may be, at the same time, needful and proper, in the sense of wise statesmanship, to require of them the amplification of certain privileges, the recognition of certain rights, the establishment of certain institutions, the re-distri- bution even of political power — to be by them accorded and executed through constitutional amendments, or otherwise — as elements of accept- able re-organization ; and as necessary to the re-adjustment of political society in harmony with the new relations, and the new basis of universal freedom, resulting from the Rebellion itself.
