Pacific Address by Bishep Andrews. ©arro, June 20.—The Mobile News of the 13th contains Bishop L. Andrews’ address to the M. E. Church South. The Bishops coun- sels a return to peacefal avocations. says: «Let the youug men of the country now re- turn to make much of their beloved homes, and seek to engage at the earliest moment pos- sible, im some honest business, and by all means avoid temptation to lawlessness, let all our paroled soldiers avoid all concern in bush whacking or guerilla warfare. These are wrong in principle and practice. Whatever seeming apology there might have been during the war originally for such a course, none now exists. It is theirduty, by all practical means, to promote peace and good feeling among the “various sections of the United States. Let all earnestly address themselves to the task or reconstruction of the Government, by promot- ing peace and unity.” Frem Nashville. : NasuvILLE June 20 —General Thomas has issued an order allowing all persons sent North of the Onjo river, to rem: during the ‘war, to return.
