FROM WASHINGTON. [SPECIAL COBJ1ESPO>T>ENCE BALTOIOUE GAZETTE.] "WASIUNQTON, Fobruary S_A fow days ago I re? ferred to'tho fact that many truly representative} men of the South woro on a visit to tho Metropo? lis, for tho purpose, of canvassing tho possibility of maturing somo plan by which the present section? al difficulties might be adjusted in a manner prom? ising the return of harmony and fraternal relations to tho wholo country. I now learn that this mat? ter has; since assumed definite shape, so far that I am atU.\orized io say that a proposition will bo shortly made, in form, by tho Legislature of North Carolina and submitted to Congross, offering as a finality tho adoption of tho Constitutional Amend? ment, with tho substitution for tho second'and third sections provisions guaranteeing impartial suffrage and representation according to tho voting population. I need' not add that tho proposition, in my judgment, will bo rejected by tho Radical?, the purposo of tho leaders of that party being to pro? tract indefinitely any settlement. Tho signs of I the timos unmistakably point to far moro stringent measures than any yet proposed, and tho moans to bo employed aro bolder and infinitely moro reckless than the public seem willing to believe. Many members of Congress who bavo had, up to within the post week, hopes of a final adjustment. upon some satisfactory basis, now undis? guisedly express themselves without ' K?p?," and admit that their calculations, based upon the' ultimate resistance of that class of Republicans whose votes have on some occasions boon cast against ultra measures, have turned out to be ut? terly fallacious. No better proof of this could be furnished than the Totes in the House upon an amendment to the "temue of office" BiU yesterday. It prohibits the President from removing a Cabi? net officer without the consent of thc Senate. It was at first substantially defeated, bat tho porty lash waa applied, and upon. a reconsideration it was adopted, and the Bill, with it incorporated as a provision, passed by a strict party vote. It will go to the Senate, be feebly opposed bv "the more moderate Republicans," who will finally yield, und by the time it comes back with the President's ob- | jections, the party will have become a unit, and the Bill become a Law by the vote of two-thirds of | both Houses. TJndor existing circumstances this bill is of vital consequence. No man doubts that the purpose of making the Cabinet independent is to tie the hands of tho President in view of his ejectionfrom thoposi taon he occupies. In truth, the whole legislation of this Congress has been but a piece of not-work with which to environ th Executive preparatory to the utter demolition of his authority, and plac? ing in his stead a "Lord Protector" already select- I sd. The restraints of tho Constitution oro utterly ? contemned evon by such pretended Conservatives is Raymond, and that instrument hold to have been, in fact, abolished by tho results of tho war. He who imagines, therefore, that the fundamental law presents the slightest barrier to the destruc? tive course marked out by the revolutionists, in? dulges in a delusion which is directly at variance with'every act and every word of tho dominant party. !- .'. It is a fact which cannot ho too soon fully under? stood by the peoplo and duly pondered upon, that ' Andrew Johnson is at this moment upon his trial; that the witnesses, such as Detective Baker, < are upon the stand; 'hat his case has been prejudged, and that ho is liable ai any moment to be dragged to the bax of the House and deposed. Tearing a sentence attributed to Madison from its context, and mutilating it, the Chronicle, in a double leaded article put forth os a manifesto of the Radi? cal leaders, distinctly declares that "if the Presi? dent be connected in any suspicious maimer with any person, and if there be any grounds to believe he will shelter him, tho House of Repr?sentatives can impeach him; they can remove him if found guilty; they con suspend him. when suspected, and the power "will devolve;- orv the Vice-President. Should he be suspected also, he may likewise be suspended until he bo impeached and removed, ana the Legislature may make a temporary ap? pointment.'' "Who doubts the ability of the House of Bepre s tutati ves to "?nspect" the President of any of-| fence, when every crime in the decalogue hos boen in advance charged upon him by a number quito sufficient to impeach ? "If (says the edict of tho Radicals already quoted) '~we discard all this false, logic (meaning that derived, from tho Constitu? tion), and those puerile threats, we sholl soon .dist/ cover that tho mode and manner of impeaching a President of the United States is astonishingly ! simple 1" Such are the facts. What is to be dono ? What can be done ? Is it too Late for tho A m cri - san peonle to issue their decree, and in the lan? guage of that of the Romana upon the conspiracy af Catalina, demand that "the Consul should take laro that the Republic received no detriment." I understand that. General -.Grant has indefin? itely p?8tponed"-his visit to'Europe. He was | M have left in April. This is a very significant : ?set. " . .. r. " '. n : .'- . ? I li is Tffidexstood that tho' local courts here will ignoro tho decision or the" Supreme Court of the United States in the matter of tho test oath. The Bransel for the party applying to bo admitted to practice without toking the unconstitutional oath jove notice that he had applied for a mandate. So ?vb go. The vetoed Bills admitting Nebraska and Col?ra? lo as States, will;' I understand, be disposed of in thoiSenate to-morrow. ? :' The Committee on Ways and Means have decided Uvreport itt favor of abolishing the tax on newspa? per advertisements.
