Thursday, December 21, lo tccfrrifcnwwun tho notice tuMaKeSljaW Tnorninjr papery an audience assembled ot the Capitol yesterday, iocludim tho Judges of tbo Sapteojo Court and StaW oEBcers, to nitncBS tho transfer of the civil government of Alabama, to tho JIon.Robt, M.

Pottoo, the Governor elected by tho people. At tho appointed titn9, the Governor appeared io' tho Hall of the, House oj Representatives io company with Governor Pattm, and addressed tho assembly from the deslc of the speaker. Ho said that we were assembled to perform end ta witness tho performance of an act, not of sorrow, but of joy, fraught with the lupplest significance to all the people of Alabama; to celebrate an event of tho utmost importance, as foreshowing- tho rebuilding of the fortunes that had ieen lost, and tha restoration of that prosperity ithich but a little while ao aoemed to itave forever departed. The event now taking place was the distinct recognition of the fact that the pcoplo of Alabama, who seven' months ngcf lay prostrate at the feet of military uthorityf were -to-day admitted to civil and po liticat power as a member of the national government, restored to their political rights and existence as a people. It was a mattor for earnest, congratulation.

History was full of the re- corded efforts of men who had failed, in their political straggles, but few such failures had been attended with SO great magnanimity on the part of the victors as the great conflict in the United States. Ha alluded to the Wtte field, of Culla-deu, where a-simple little stone marks the spot on which the last hopes of a brave and noble nation were extinguished. If on every spot where hopes had disappeared, where hu- man hopes and expectations, had gone dawn in hlood, wore marked with sue'a a monument, how many would be the number. How sal the tale of the persecutions, punishments and confisoa tions attendant upjn each. it we wore assembled upon no ground for sorrow.

Wo were come to mark an uplifting froja the ashes, a riS' sng from the ruins of the pilltical volcano that had wrought desolation in our land to celebrate the reconstruction of the political temple in which we might reasonably hope to dwell iu security and peace. The success which had attended our efforts hitherto s'loulj encourage us for the future; that whave not accaiplUbed ail that we could have wished should be no cms vt discouragement, let us 01 in the new cireer upjn w'uch wo hive entered, accepting tho irtial but great success already achieved bs a of the full fruition of our hopes in all rightful desires fertile time to come. Governor Paitja responded ia a few remarks addressed to tha Tewing Govorflur. II -said that tn accepting from his hands the archive of tho State, ho coaM not retrain from csnressins I I his deep sense of fie saeee.n of his dlfEtfuH and ctclicato administration of the Government, un-j der unexampled diijculties aud the mot tryh.g nerWSa.np.Q uiiucau.es anu tue mo.i try. rcurusta-n-ces.
