ADr' _ An intoreatlng intervlow took plaoo In Wash ington on tho 3d between tho President and a committoo composod of Jon? HANCOCK, J. W. HENDERSON, B. H. LANE and J. A. POBTEII,, ap pointed by tho Convention of the State of Texas, who, in porsou, dolivorod to tho President an ofll cial copy of the ordinances adopted by that body. Judge HANOOOK, on behalf. of the committee, addressed the Frosidont in substanoo as follows: Mu. PRESIDENT : Wo have boen directed by the convention of the people of Texas to present to you the ordinancos ot a general character adopt ed by that body, and to assure you, and. through yoa, the national authorities, of tho loyal and pacific dispoaitiop of the people of our State. ?. The convention deeming it expedient to reform and amend many of the provisions of the consti tution of tue State, the session was Momowhat pro tracted, extending from the 7th of February laat to the 3d of April. But on those subjects which have arison as results of the late unfortunate civil war, entire unanimity of sentiment was manifest ed by the members as to tho general scope- and object of the action to be taken to testify the good faith of the'people of Texas lu their acceptance of the results of tho war, and the sincerity of their professions O? loyalty to tho Constitution end tho Union of the States.thereunder;' > '?.-. r n We have the honor to present you official copies of tho ordinances adopted by tho convention on these subjects, and to them wa Invite your atten tion..;,.?? ,. ..". . .. It will be seen that by the mo3t solemn aots of organic law the Convention declared, null and Void, the ordinance termed the ?fdinabo*of seoesBfon,' by which a part of the people of Texas, on the let of 1'obruary, 1861, declared their purpose to separate the Stato from the Federal Union. And, notwithstanding the views and opinions..many of the members entertained iu tho past, tho loyal and fondly cherished sou ti tuent of many of the citizens of'the State, tho convention recognizing the supremacy of the Constitution of the United States and of all laws passed in pursuance thereof, renounced tho claim of a right on . the part.of the State of Texas to socode from the Union. - The entire debt growing out of, and accruing during the war. tho convention declared null and void.' prohibited tho Legislature from assuming or m&lBncfSj provision for tho payment of any por-, tt?n thereof. By constitutional provision tho convention re cognized as free those persons heretofore held as slares, and declare that hereafter neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as punishment for crime, shall exist in our Stato. Freedmen are protected in their rights of person and of proper ty, enabled to contract and to be contracted with, to sue audio besued, to 'acquire, hold, and trans mit property, and to testify as witnesses in the courts wherever, 'any interest of right of any of them may bo involved, under the same rules of evidence applicable to the white race; thus secur ing to them by constitutional provision equality before the law. leaving no material right subject to the contingency of legislative action; not doubt ing, however, that this claps of persons, so long as they1 remain among us, will re?oive ample pro tection in their rights from all departments of the Statt government. On all these subjects the convention has spoken dispassionately, and in good faith, what they be lieve the sentiments of the people of Texas. ' When to these nets are added the circumstances connected with the manner in whioh the soldiery of Texas laid down their arm.i, and returned to their homes and peaceful avocations, despite the authority of tti.-ir officers, when their judgments were convinced that further resistance would only augment the calamities of the war, without wait ing for the arrival ot s national force to accept their surrender, and that since that time these people have readily conformed to all requirements made- of them by the United States Government, wo think there will bo few inatancoa found of a people giving higher evidences of their reliability, or the sincerity of whose professions of loyalty should inspire greater oonndence. .A brave and ohivalrous people who have given earnest, such aa these, of their faith and loyalty, deserve to be trusted. A magnanimous and just people ought not to desire to maintain military rule over them when they are ready and willing to .do their duty as good cithtens. For some months after the breaking up of the Southern armies the public mind of Texas gave unmistakable assurance of a feeling of gladness and hope of an early return to peace, law, order, and good government, of whioh they had been so long deprived. They remembered that the na tional Congress had claimed that a State had not the constitutional right to secede from the Union, and the oft-repeated declaration that the seats of Southern members In Congress, though vacated, I were there ta be occupied when those io rebellion against the! Government should lay down their arms and' return to their rightful allegiance. They believed that such would be the policy of the Government, and rejoiced in the hope of an early restoration of all the integral parts of the Union to a position of political equality, without which republican institutions may linger for a time but must soon perish. We regret that truth and candor compel us to admit that these demonstration* of hope and pa triotic desire have, to some extent, given place to feelings of doubt and despondoncy, attributable in the main to two causes: first; the powerful ef forts that have been exerted in Congress to exclude therefrom repr?sentatives from other Statua simi larly situated while the people are to be taxed as those who are fully represented; and second, the course of the military authority towards the peo ple of Texas, in holding it as a conquered coun try, appropriating their property without com pensation, subjecting the citizens to military arrests and imprisonment, often without alleging any offence against them, to be released at the pleasure of the officer commanding after wooka sometimes months-of imprisonment. But nnder all ihoao discouragements the people are not disloyal. There is no reeling of hostility to. the Government of the United States; no dis position-not the slightest-to renew hostility, or lo offer opposition to the Government. There are evil-disposed bad men among us, some ambitious and designing, {their number is small), who hope to profit from arbitrary power and prosper boot in the absence of regulated authority. They are not loyal to any Government. But with the great mass of t' e people, the paramount desire is the resto ration of the Union and of Civil Government. If these blessings borne not to the nation, the fault1 will not be with the people of Texan, many of whom proved their loyalty to the Union by every \ sacrifice which maduess and tyranny ? could exact, ' \ Are their rights to be disregarded because of the left who are wicked and depraved ? The people of Tsxae expeot and will ask only that which is law ful-their rights as guaranteed by the Federal Constitution. . ..'.. .. We should feel that we had only partially per formed our duty to.the people of pur State were, we to omit expressing to your Excellency our cor dial approbation of your course as President of tile United States, and particularly our approval of your restoration policy. Your wise and patri otio, course in behalf of the equal rights of all sec tions of the country has revived fresh hope in many a desponding heart, that the generation which has experienced the most terrible shock of civil war in modern time? may see civil and con stitutional liberty restored throughout the entire land. We thank yon, in tho name of the people of Texas, for the noble and patriotic stand yon have taken in botialf of constitutional liberty. The olive hranoh of peace, extended to ua by your kindly hand, we accept in grateful spirit, and pledge to you the support, earnest and thorough, ox the people of Tex na in all measures that wul tend to restore the btate to its pristine position'among the States of the American Union. May God preserve your Excellency many years in health and pros perity, an instrument* under His guidance, to re? Sito the Government of our fathers and preserve e liberties of the people.. BEFLY or Tnr. PR?SIDENT. The President bri? fly responded.

Tbo following interesting letter, on tho difficul ties now existing between Prussia and Austria, wo tako from tbo Boston Post : BEnt-rw, April 11.-When you hoard from mo last tho Austrian noto, disclaiming all hostile inten tions and calling upon Prussia to demobilize nor troops, bad Just .been received at thia capital Since theil,! am eorry to eay, the complications bave not assumed a moro peaceful aspect, or a satisfactory conclusion; anti as yet all is doubt and uncertainty in tho fir uro. All German trans actions aro, as you know, I.ONO L1NUE1U.NU, and in a mattor of war, long preliminaries, con sisting of orimination and recrimination, assertion and denial, demands and excusos, consumo a great deal of time before anything conoluBive is determined on. I cannot, therefore, toll you anything decisive, or do moro than give you ovents and sbort-Bightod proBpoots, which being beforo you, may ho judged of as well in America - as here. > TUB Fnrj&aiAN nri'LT to tho Austrian noto is sent, and, if anything, shuts out one more hope for peace. Count Von Bismarok plumply declines to accede to the Aus trian demand that the troops shall cease to be mobilized, on the ground that that sot was ne cessary to the Prussian defence. In terms which some aro inclined to call ide?lent, but which no body can stigmatize as minolng, our' plucky Premier doclarea that ho considora the Austrian preparations as already aggressive. It is under stood, too, that Prussia will' decline to yield to arbitration of the Federal Diet in the matter at ieauo, and this is easily understood. It seems a little remarkable that Austria should propose euch a oourae; for no power is botter aware of its re sults than the Empire. Ia it not a world wide fact, that the Diet would pronounce, ten to ono, against . Prussia ? Who knows' better than Francis Joseph' that the petty Gor man States are clearly on bis side? 'The proba bility is that lie did nob expect Prussia to submit to the Diet-but made the proposal to have tho rooord more, clearly on bia side. Indeed wt> havo already auch,intelligence from the rest of Germany as indicate? that the Diet would decline tho propo sition of Bismarok for reform, and would even call upon him to discontinue the increase of troops. So far, Bismarck has held firm to tua course, and it is bcliovod that bo will not yield the main points upon which he has hitherto insisted. It is almost obvious that tho only course King William, who is really hesitating in tho matter, eau purauo, to ensure poaco, is to dismiss Bismarck. That I do not believe he will do. Some believo that the next thing Austria will do "ill belo demand refer ence to TUB BOND. This will perhaps forco Prussia to an extremity. If she does not accept the decree of the Confedera cy, which will assuredly bo against her, ?ho*mum refuse it, and thus place herself beyond the paie of association with the tost of Germany. This certainly would precipitate war. The latter course would be almost ruinous to her ambition to stand at the head of a future united nation, for she would be alienated from ali those powers whioh it is her. ardent wish ultimately to control. The whole thing \'wn, then, in the palm of Austria, if she chooses to take the momentous determina tion to use ft. But is she prepared to do this? There are many reasons why Austria had better avert war if she can. To tako a conrse which would make it inevitable, ia what she will consider well before it is taken. A too cordial support of the minor States might subject her to the jealousy of France, and in any evont it is not doubted by any one that Italy will be prepared to strike the Empire in Venetia the instant an overt act ia com mitted. Even carrying with her all extra-Prussian Germany, the issue would be exceedingly doubt ful. Beames, if the minor States are really against Prussia, it by no means follows that they are Aus trian to an extent which will engage their active assistance against the great representative of con stitutional polity in central Europe. The MJIIRMBKUQ HSETINO the other day gives us a hint that other ideas ani mate no small portion of the thinking people of the small States, and that Prussia and Austria might, after all, have to fight sole alone. At Nu remberg a large concourse declared that, if the great powera went to war, the small powers would be wise to seize the opportunity to erect a Repub lic. This would effectually checkmate the former, but instead of making a unit of Germany, it would be introducing a third great polity which would hold a sort of balance between the Kingdom and the Empiro. While THE SAXON COUBT , is certainly for Austria, and perhaps half the in habitants of Saxony, thero is an intelligent party at'least who solemnly deprecate a union with that power/aa tending to the overthrow of Protestant ism. King John would rather like to seo that, for he ia himself a Catholic; but it would be a hard matter at thia late day to turn back enlightened Saxony into the channel which leads to Rome. Saxon public sentiment is very mnch worked upon the subject, yet, should war come, the King will probably be able to aid Austria with a quota of 10,000 troops or so; and as for Bavaria, sbo is waiting quietly to take a share, if necessary, in the. discomfiture of her old Brandenburg enemy. THE rasE CITIES, which are Protestant and progressionist, are very anxious about tho threatened war. They have repeatedly called upon both the great pow ers to refrain from hostility, and at Bremen, Frank fort, and Hamburg, it has been declared that it is tho duty of Germany to remaiu neutral if they occur. They will ultimately side with Prussia, if Prussia continues constitutional; and at all events would with great ill grace submit to Austria. Lu beck IB'BO far from everything that she does not seem to have much concern about the matter. Wurtemburg, or Saxony, is greatly divided on the question. The Court partly go with Austria; there is, however, a strong lib?ral party who oppose any active movement in lower Germany; In Prussia itself, the feeling against war is very strong. If entered into under the present circumstances it would ho very unpopular. Hope?, are entertained ?that the orl?is will have the Bingle good effeat of getting rid of Bis marck. A very large majority of King William's subjects are, and have long beou, in opposition. Their patience has been sorely tried, by the acta which have shown, for several years, a despotic tendency on the part of tho Government. That there is a limit even to Ger man patience, may possibly bu illustrated ore long. -To add to the various insults and tyran nies vrhieh havo transpired, an unnecessary, and whether suocossf ni or vain, a certainly disastrous conflict, would be apt to end in nothing less than the revolutionizing of the kingdom. Wallam runs au awful risk, therefore, fully as serious as that of the Emperor. If the war should be a failure. I would not give sixpence . for tho chance of tho house of Brandenbarg, As it- now stands, the peoplo have no chanco to speak in the matter. There ia, practically, no Parliament. The Cabinet is simply Herr von Sismaros. If war is declared, it is forced down the throat of the community. Such an aggravation might lead to a popular as sertion o? rights. Even publio meetings cannot bo hold, at least near Berlin, without a con straint caused by constant fear of interruption. At several plaoes, however, remote from the capital, meetings havo been held within this kingdom, at whioh resolutions were adopted, so bold, au well may alarm the king aud his cabinet At Dusseldorf, Madgebarg, Elborfleld, Aix-Ia-Ohapello, Langaabnrg, and Delitsoh, these froe popular expressions have been given, under circumstances, which already show that there is, after all, some spirit left in this suffering people. At the latter town, a series of resolves met the cononrronce of the meoting, whioh may be taken as a good reflex of tbtfPrusaian liberals through oat the kingdom. They deprecated war as an un mitigated calamity, a?. unjustifiable, and as the fault of Prussia if ensuing. In confusion, they declare that) inasmuch as constitutional freedom has not been respected in Prussia, and as tho Gov ernment does not .possess the confidence of ita subject-), it is unfit to carry on Federal reform, or to take tlje lead in uni Jug Germany under a con atitatlonM oentro. This is worthy of the days of Cromwell, but it will be hard for Bismarok to pun ish meeting* whieh consist of thousands, and to carry ou? peVaecution within Prussia, aud at the same time prepare Prussia for war, would be too great a, task even forjiiu Vary remarkable abilities. Sou have doubtless already Lrurd that' ' '' ' " OOVMT WALDM????, a not over prudent Prussian amy ofacerihad been arrested by tba Austrian authoritlas on am bleton of being a ?py. - If he wa? really a ?py, it ii i "i ' re ;) ftl) u . w ..-^ . i .-.' tuet? . difficult to see how a worse choico fur tin purpose could have been selected. It seems tim-, as noon as he entorod tho Austrian frontier, ho began making vory particular inquiries into military matters, inquiring as to the most minite move ments of the Imperial troops. ThR as might havo been suspeoted, instantly aroused'ho watch fulness of the Austrian authorities. Ho went whero it was reported that troops wem concen trating, making copious notes, with baldly an at tempt at concealment, of everything buohaerved. Ho sketched the fortifications of Jooepltitadt, and thon of Prague, openly, in tho sight of ?verybody. Ho waa finally arrested on tho rooort it a waiter at one or tho Praguo bot?le, and th? sketches found upon bia person. Ho is a simpleton, indeed, if bia object was that of espionage. THE FBENCU Eiir-Eium keeps as mum as poasiblo on tbo situation. A great many persons of influence who hive had ac cess to hid Cabinet havo endeavored to sound bim, but ho is quito impenetrable. Ile kuows well enough that aa soon as war ia declared, tho game ia in his owu hands, which over way "tho cat jumps." A wonn from him would put an end to all probability of war; but no mau keeps words with closer firmness than the historian of Caesar. Everybody here recognizes tho fact that Napoleou is st this mo ment, by his position, the arbiter of Germany. Whilo negotiations aro on foot, and protestations are being made, preparations aro going on to meet whatever oxigenoy may arise. Austria is working to get her finances in better condition her mala difficulty; and is at the same timo quiet ly reorganizing her army. Bismarck has the doublo task of stiffening up tho King's baokbono. and of strengthening the frontier. Delay, in Germany, prognosticates nothing; the chances, as you may judge from my account, stand about cvon between peace and war. NATURE'S OWN REMEDIES. Congress Spring Water.
