COLUMBIA, July 30.-The statement made in the New York Tmea this morning is an exaggeration. Messrs. W. ARMSTRONG and J. L. THOMPSON, cor? respondent of a Cleveland paper, were assaulted night before last at eight o'clock by two drunken men. Both were arrested before midnight by the Chief of Police, who is the brother of one of the assailants. The citizens, without exception, de? nounce the assault, which was the result of liquor, and entirely unpremeditated. ABMSTBONO is acting as magnanimously in the matter, as he behaved bravely in the brief fight; bat THOMPSON desires to be considered as a mar? tyr, and is sending out sensation dispatches. Gen.

A FATHER CHARGED WITH STARVING HIS CHILD TO DEATH.-Yesterday morning, a young ladv, nomad Elizabeth Davis, appeared in the clerk's office of the Police Court and made an affidavit, charging one Thomas Pool wi*h manslaughter, iu having caused the death of his son, a bov aged between hve and six years by starvation. 'The facts of the case as related by Miss Davis, are as follows : For some months past it has beon noticed bv the neighbors of Pool, who resides on Last Walnut Hills, that the boy, John M. Pool, bore evidence of brutal treatment. He appeared sickly and half starved, and often his nosh presented wounds made by a raw hide. Many of the neighbors, including Miss Davis, made personal application to Pool, asking him to desist from the brutal treatment spoken of. Pool, however, refused to acceed to tho request. On Sunday, the 11th inst., the boy was not aeon about the house or yard, and it was "supjKwed that he was sick. After waiting two or three days, and nothing being seen of him. Miss Davis called at the residence of Mr. Pool, for tho purposo of making some inquiries. She was met at thc door by Mr. Pool, who informed her that thc child was dead, and had been buried. Tho visitor inquired whore the remains had been interred, and was told by Pool that it was none of her business, and thai ho had taken an oath never to make known tho burial place, stating at the same timo, probably in the way of a threat, that tho child was buried where she (Miss Davis) would be, if sho did not attend to her own business. Miss Davis, convinced that there was something wrong, consulted the neighbors in regard to tho matter, and at their suggestion swore out the affi? davit. The case will be brought up before Judge Straub to-day.-Cincinnati Gazelle. The bodies cf MAXTMILIA*, MEJIA and MIBAMON were embalmed. REPUBLK VIV MASS MK ETI VG. 1 SPEECHES OF HON. A. O. MACKEY, F. A. SAWYEB I ESQ., M A JOB D. F. COBBIN, AND O TH EES. Tho papers yescterday hivinglgiven notico that mass meeting would be held in the ovoning at Hi berman Hall, to which all were invited who woro in favor of tho reconstruction measures of thc 39th and 40th Congress, wo ropaired to tho spot designated at the appointed hour, and found tho hall nearly full with persons of both colors, tho bkek, however, largely predominating-say nine negroes to ono white mau. Among those present, we obsorvod several of our leading merchants and other prominent citi? zens. As "Mr. BOWEN passed up tho aislo, there was a his3 from several parts of the house, suffi? cient to direct gonoral attention to that gontloman. About half-past eight o clock Mr. E. P. Wall, colored, movod that the meeting bo organized, by calling tho Hon. A. G. MACKEY to tho Chair, which was concurred in. He then proposed for vice Presidents : Messrs. F. A. SAWYER, D. T. COBBIN, Wm. McKinlay, Robert Houston, Edmund Lamons, and T. J. ROBERTSON; and for Secretaries H. JUDOE MOOEE, DAVID BABBOW, and Wm. J. Mc? Kinlay. All of which wero accepted, r.imo con tradiuentc Mr. MACKEY then announced that it had boon proposed to add the Hon. J. P. M. EPPING to tho number of vice-Presidents. "All who aro in favor of this nomination will signify it by saying aye Thero wero about eight or ten ayes. "AU who aro opposed by saying no." And there was a perfect shout of noes all over the bouse. This demon stration eecmed altogether unexpected. The Chair, however, with commendable composure, re? marked that although the dissenters had sig? nified their intontion by considerable noise ho was not satisfied, and requested those who were in favor of tho nomination to rise. About a dozen roso. He then asked them to be seated, and those to riso who were opposed to the nomination of the Hon. J. P. M. EPPINO, when tho houso seemed to rise en masse. [This was a sample of that prover? bial ingratitude of republics for their great men altogether unmerited on the part of tho honorable gentleman, who has our hearty condolence and sympathy.] Dr. A. G. MACKEY'thcn opened the meoting with tho following romarks : Fellow-Citizens: As an indication of my position I will say that. I was ignorant of tho purpose of tho meeting, and have come here independent and un trameUed, and by no previous arrangement, and am, consequently, prepared to bo an impartial Moderator. This meoting hos been called for an expression of opinion from all citizens who aro in favor of the Acts of Congress. This appears to be a wide field, and it is requisite to know what class will take charge. I shah detain you only to state what principles shah govern me as a Moderator All who understand history will know that the country has for many years been divided in two parties, Democrat and RepubflBln, and if anything distinguishes one from the other, it is the difference of opinion on the subject of reconstruction. 1 presume that every man who calla himself a mern ber of the Union Republican party must be in favor of tho Reconstruction Acts of Congress, and is willing to abide by them. If a Democrat, tho case ia different; and judging from the past, I hold that every true Democrat is an enemy to tho plan of reconstruction proposed by Congress. At a meeting Uko the present, there may be a num? ber of persona who claim to be members of the Repubhcan party, but they may be beginners or catechumens; but still, if in favor of thia party, they should be received with favor by all. (Ap? plause. ) It may be that many have como here for the purpose ot aiding and abetting the President's policy; but those only are true to tho country who favor tho Congressional policy of reconstruc? tion. All who come here, either natives or adopted citizens, must do au honest? ly and fearlessly, and be prepared to carry out the policy of the Repubhcan party, and to speedily restore our beloved State to hor former position in the Union. They come to aid in the good work of reconstruction, to replace tho lost stars in the flag, and to restore that flag to ita place as the proud emblem of tho country. If they como hero with auch motives I know no rea? son why tliey should not be beard, and any man who has snch views is no enemy, but a good mem? ber. If, on tho other haud, thero aro any who try to dsstroy or nullify the acto of Congress, he ia an enemv, and should h^&vnidfld. Hiv nur tim? <rivan my positron and estu ohshed what my views aro un the subject of reconstruction, I now declare this meeting to bo thoroughly organized, and I shall be glad to hear what any gentleman has to offer. Cries of SAWYBB, SAWYEB. That gentleman soon responded to tho call and delivered an able and and forcible speech, of which we present the fol? lowing synopsis : Me. President and Fi Uow-citixens ; Until a lato hour to-day I was as ignorant of the purpose of thia meeting as you were. I saw simply a call in the paper for those who wore in favor of tho Recon? struction Acts of the Thirty-ninth and Fortieth Congress. This was without a signature and com? mitted no man but for what tho notice stated. Those who belonged to tho Union Rop iblican party, or those who considered tho action of Con? gress to be the best for tho country are doubtless here, I did not expect to be called upon BO soon in the evening, and would liavo been glad to havo heard others, but I shall endeavor to answer your call aud show what are the principles of the He publican party and how thoy are affected hy Con? gressional action. I have been a Repubhcan for years, not only now, but during the late struggle, and nave fully determined that it is a party of good order and equal rights to all men. ( Applause. ) That same party is the motive power ol the United States, and it ia only by their action that they remain tho United States. I was formerly a Democrat, but when the Convention of Charleston was broken up; when the Democrats showed sympathy with movements that led to disruption, I left them, feeling that mv only courso was to fall in on tho opposite side. It is no new thing for me to be a Repubhcan, but circumstanced havo heretofore prevented my speaking. My present position was assigned me by a Republioan President and con? firmed by a Republican Congress, and my loyalty is not to be doubted. The timo has now come when it behooves every good citizen to do his whole duty to hia country and bis God. Thia can only bo dono by obeying the laws paaacd by consti? tutional authority. The Reconstruction Acts are now thc laws of tho land, and should not be a subject of debate, for it ia the duty of every man to uphold them. I will not discuss the na turo of these laws, hut will* say that if not the liest, look South of Mason & Dix? on's line for the reason, as better alternatives were offered, but wero refused with scorn. I ask you again, if any movement against the Govern? ment, in any country, baa been moro leniently dealt with ? Let any man who waa hero during the whole war. and knew tho tone of the peoplo, say that they knew that if tho United States were successful, their lives and liberties would be safe. The idea was hooted at, for they knew and expect? ed that whon tho cause was lost thoy would be tried for treason. If the acts now in force had been enforced in May, 1865, there would havo been no difficulty in registering, but the time allowed them made them wish for bettor terms. The people who conducted this war expected that they would suffer, and that the colored peo? ple would be in favor; but it was only when far seoing men brought forco to bear upon tho sub? ject, that freedom waa established; and instead of four millions' slaves wo now havo men. These chattels having been freed by tho Uni. cd States, it is to be presumed that they would not leave them free in everything but in law. If they had been kept irom the ballot box it would havo produced another war; and I do not boliove that I am en? titled to vote and a black man not. When slaves they wore kopt in 8ubjection, but now have been mauo citizens both of tho United States and of thc State. I aak if, undor existing circumstances, wo may oxpoct any more fool ish legislation than tho negro code or tho accession ordinance? or if tho future history of tho peop lo will show enactments moro severe than tho tax bill? If this should bo so, then God save the Commonwealth of South Carolina. I do not mean to bo unkind, as I have lived a long time in this community, and know nono as an enemy ; but I must say that those who partici? pated in the action of the" past should suffer somo disability. Tho speaker tere proceeded to describo tho causo and result of thc late contest, and showed how it affected the participators. Ho proved that wealth and intelligence wero governing powers, and would have influence in politics notwithstand? ing the general suffrage. It is now tho duty of every man to come for? ward and register promptly, so that even if Iiis ideaB are not carried out, he is still prepared for any emergency. Do not remain* passive, for cxi gehciea may occur when thc voice ot every man will have aohio influence. Gov. Perry said that no man in South Carolina could take the oath, and that nono of the offices cotdd be filled. Mr. Saw yor showed that while the war was at its height and tho city undergoing a bombardment, that thoso who knew could at any time collect ono hun? dred staunch Union men, and thoso all whito. Thero wero many Union men liko Gov. Perry, who, when thov had to stand up to thc Union, said that if their States went to the devil they would KO with them. Bnt thoio were others who thought the war a new fangled notion, and stuck to the United States, and who remained tine throughout thc straggle. I have nu doubt that tho new element that will bo iutroduccd into our ?ouncils will not bo practi? cally different from thc past. A'ter tho new Gov? ernment hts been formed, there is no doubt that the disability in many cases will be removed, and thero aro numbera now who are thoroughly recon? structed, and who would not take back their for? mer slaves. I can respect an honest rebel, if he is consistent and has not seen the errur of his ways. All that I want is for him to come out and work fir tho restoratiun of his State, and his past actions will soon be forgotten. It becomes us to heal all dissensions in our party, and to show mutual forbearance among our? selves. I hope that thia is univ uno of manv simi? lar meetings that will tend to make South Carolina a Republican State, not by that party, but for tho principles of tho patty. . Cuugreas* has passed measures to perpetuate thi Republican partv, ant it is but right that they should, as they believe their principles to bo correct. Tho time has gono bv when that question could bo discussed. Tho platform is broad : equal rights and liberties to all mon. Mr. SAWYER closed by explaining the platform and principles of the Republican party bl contra? distinction to those of tho Democrats, and showed that it was created for wiso purposes. Mr. ROBINSON, of Columbia, being then called for, made a few remarks, asserting that he was an unconditional Union Republican, and in favor of thc Military Reconstruction Bill. He declined lo discuss thc subject and yielded tho floor to other speakers. Mr. COREN made a speech from tho floor, slating his principles and giving his adherence to tho parly. Major D. T. CORBIN, being loudly called for re? sponded in an able speech, advising his hearers to accept the terms of tho Bill, and to improve them? selves by overy means in thoir power. Ho partic? ularly directed their attention to tho subject of education. Ho was followed by A. J. Ransier (colored) who, after a few preliminary remarks, offered tho fol? lowing proamblo awl resolutions : Whereas, It is our deliberate opinion tint tho interest ot the whole country demand the restora? tion of the States, lately in rebellion by resisting thc Government of the Union. And, whereas, the the 89th and 40th Congress of tho United States have proscribed tho conditions of said restoration, and providing for equality before tho law for the inhabitants of this land, irrespective of color, race or previous condition. And, whereas, wo heartily approve of the principles and self-evident truths inculcated by Congross in the several acts provid? ing for said restoration. Therefore, be it BnofoflUj That it is our unalterable purpose to carry out, in good faith and without any reserva? tion whatever, and to maintain and defend, under all circumstances, the measures looking to said restoration. Resolved, That in furtherance of the same, and recognizing tho justice, wisdom and Bound policy iu tho course pursued by the Congress, we hearti? ly approve of and endorse the principles adoptod by tho Union Republican party of the Stato cf South Carolina. . W. J. WhipperandR. B. Elliott (colored) follow? ed in the same strain as the previous speakers. Tho platform of the Union Republican party, as adopted by tho Columbia Convention, was read by the Chair, when Mr. Hayno (colored) offered tho following resoluiion : liesotved, That this meeting adopt the platform recently adoptod by the Union Republican Con? vention, which assembled at Columbia, as the true exposition of the principles of that party, as organized in this Stato, and will consider tho maintainance of thoso principles without qualifica? tion as tho only evidence in any candidate for pnblic favor, of his devotion to {ho great party through whose exertions alone tbo Southern States can look tor restoration to the Union. On motion of R. C. DeLarge (colorod), tho meet? ing was then adjourned. OUR WASHINGTON CORRESPONDENCE. THE REPORT OF THE CONTEMPLATED REMOVAL OF SHERIDAN-ITS CONSUMMATION LONGED FOB BY RADICAL POLITICIANS-NO NEWS AT THE WHITE HOUSE-THE SYSTEMATIC SILENCE OF THE EMPLOY? EES THERE-THE LAST ON DIT-ARGUMENTS TO THE JUEY IN THE BUBBATT CASE-THE WEATHER AND AMUSEMENTS-MEXICAN MINISTER-JAPANESE NAVY, ETC., ETC. WASHINGTON, July 28.-It is very generally be? lieved thal there is some truth in the report which has been in existence for several days, that tho President contemplates tho removal of General SHERIDAN; but as yet there aro no semi-official an? nouncements as to who will bo his successor, or upon what particular grounds the removal will bo mado, if it is accomplished. It has been no secret that the President has felt sore on account of what he evidently regards official disrespect paid him hy tho Commander of the Fifth Military District; but, at the same time, he has boen much averse to stirring up additional rancor among his political enemies, by interfering with their chosen officer in ono of tho most' prominent positions under tho Reconstruction bille. **?-,ul "m w lnado, is ateo a subject upon which tho "best in? formed" aro without knowledge. If General SHEE? HAN is removed, ho will gain no little political cap? ital in being called upon by a number of prominent Republicans-his particular admirers-in con? nection with his views as to the presentation of bis name as a candidate for tho next Presidency, and there is positive ground for as? serting that there aro moro than a few influential Radical politicians whoso hearts would bo mado glad by such a disposition of events. It has al? ready been scon that tho question of General GRANT'S nomination is replete with difficulties, prominent among which are the facts that, as yet no ono has tho positivo assurance, that in the com? position of tho General-in-Chief there does not ex? ist a spark, or perhaps a flame, of conservativo feeling-a sort of belief in a medium course which is not altogether tho proper thing; and next, whother that officer will givo up his life position for tho hazardous four years tonuro of office, whilo various partios aro now endeavoring, "will ho, niil he," to elovatc (?) him. So SHERIDAN is on tho course, only waiting tho intoi fcrenco of tho Executive in his (SHERIDAN'S) political military po? sition, to give him a start that would no doubt gather considerable strength among his admirers as tho race progressed. Notwithstanding the rumors of removals in high places, and of other important political transac? tions that aro now on the lapin, there is nothing in tho appearance of things at tho White House , that would load to t'.io belief that any pressing businoss was engaging tho attention of its chief occupant, and tho various titled secretaries and clerks who aro constantly engaged in tho Executive offico doing-nothing, just now (as they certainly lead seekers after knowlodgo to bolieve). There is yet to bo pointed out a single i instance when any of t hose gentlemen was guilty of tho impropriety of knowing aught of important proceedings which were going on, and it follows as a matter of course, that at thc present timo when tho public is awaiting with cager anxiety tho consummation of various matters, which it has been informed will sooner or later como to pass. Tho military assistants in the Pres? ident's household seem to be in blissful ignorance with rogard to anything being under consideration of which tho world at largo would like to know. In fact, about tho most difficult placo to obtain reli? able information, or any information, with rogard to prominent national mattera under consideration at the White House, is ac thc White Houso itself. The very messengers at tho doors have been shoved into a system of tenacious silonco by the non-committal policy which tho surrounding atmosphere inspires, and instances aro not few in which tho energetic official who has the honor of being confidential messen? ger to tbo President, and who has ushered thousands into his presence, has been unable to tell tho namo of a single prominent individual who had been so honorod when applied to for that pur? pose by inquisitivo newspaper correspondents. An attempt is to bo made to overcome some of this bashfulness, and if it is successful I shall ex? pect to relate in any early letter many of tho im? portant matters which are now on tho shelf, but which aro awaiting consideration "at the other end of the avenue." It is well for tho President that he has now a time for rest, and a pity that he cannot, liko General Grant and thu Cabinet Minis? ters, take a trip to tho Springs, and prepare him? self for tho ordeal of hard work which awaits him next winter; for past experience has provcu that tho deserted corridors which now make thc execu? tive mansion look almost cheerloss, arc only the prelude to a rush fer official favors when thc cool weather commences, which shall keep tho Presi? dent tied lo business, as in tact he has been du? ring the wholo of his administration. How much work CongresB will make for him will only be known when it is here; but it is hardly probable that ho will be bothered much by tho presence of tho legislative branch of the Government. Among the very latest on dits I may here mention, is one that at tho next session thc impeachment question will bc thoroughly settled by tho com? plete submission of that dogma to other and less revolutionary theories, and harmony by that means will bb established between tho Exocutive and Congress. It would bo something neto, as it never before existed, and speculations as ti the good effect such a condition of affairs would have upon the country at largo arc already thc result of that fooling. Tho consideration of Mexican affairs seems to have boon vary summarily stopped for a season, 8inco the Senate refused to confirm President Johnson's appointment as Minister there, lt is not thought by tho Administration that tho condi> tion of that republic, or its relations to this coun? try, ure such just now as to cull fur any remarka? ble official action; and since McClernand was not allowed by Congress to represent thc Government at its capital, Otterbourg holds on. This may continue until the meeting of Congress, although the pressure for thu position has not nba ted in the least, Otterbourg was tho oholoo of thu Secretary of atato and not of the President; but that faut will not in itself have weight enough to delay another appointment. Thc difficulty is in obtain? ing a representativo who will bc confirmed by the Senate. This is also the case in other prominent positions now vacant. Tho arguments to tho jury in tho Surratt trial, which will be fairly inaugurated to-morrow, will not be concluded, it is thought, before the end of tho week, and it is hardly probable that tho de? cision of the jury will bo bad before ibo middlo of next week. The weather continues intensely hot, and dull? ness ia conspicuous everywhere in tho city. No places of amu3om?nt aro opon excepting ono or two concert halls, of very low degroo. which came with the late war, and have managed to thrive by selling bad rum to depravod drinkers, who have lingered hore over sineo. There aro no logilimato amusement halie rr theatres now in operation. Our German citizen? are making groat prepara? tions for their annual Shnte.mfost, which com? mences on the5th c% next month; and on tho 1st of August,thero is io bo a regatta on tho Potomac, under the supervision of tho National Yacht Club, composed moBtly cf clerks in tho ciifforent public departments. 'rho "Japan," formerly tho "Stonewall," is very nearly rcaly for sea, and will pro? bably lcavo hen about tho ond of thc present week fir Now York, where she will bo placed in tie dry dock, aa tho Government intends sonding 1er to Japan properly repaired, cleansed and fitted ont. The vessel seems to bc moro of a curiosiy now than whoa she first ar? rived boro from Hnrana as a Confederate man-of war stcamor. It is very well unlcrstood that tho Bill to give colored people in this District tho right to hold office, of which Sotator Sumner lias the honor ol' being the paternal relative of, and which passod both Honscs of Congress during tho adjourned session, but failed to become a law on account of not recoiving tho President's signature, will be presented in another shapo at tho next session, and passed ovor again. Ono of our colored resi? dents of long staudng is alroady impressed with tho notion that ha will be candidato for Mayor next June, under tho provisions of such a Bill, and "bows and senpes accordingly, taking par? ticular caro in these expressions bf courtesy to tho public to make no distinction on accojnt of race or co or, but bows to the whito mon with Ibo, same urbanity and politeness as to the black. His chances are not considorod bad. HAL. A TALK Wini THE PRESIDENT. THE PRESIDENT'S VIEWS OF RECONSTRUCTION-TU E NEGRO QUESTION-IMPEACHMENT-HOHACE GREE? LEY-ASHLEY-THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY, ttC. [Correspondence. Cincinnati Commercial.] WASHINGTON, July22,1867.-Tho following items, from a conversation with the President sinco the adjournment of Congress, aro, I think, of sufficient interest to entitlo thom to tho dignity of printer's ink. The first subject mentioned was THE REOONSTnUCTTON BILL, And the speeches made in both Houses, in which the Radicals asserted that tho last veto contained a throat on the part of the President not to carry tho measure into oxocution. " Those mon," said Mr. Johnson, alluding to Boutwoll, in tho House, and Sumner and Howard in tho Senate, "aro not fools enough to beliovo any such thing. They know very well that there is no language in thc mo8sago capablo of hoing tortured into any each meaning. Thoy know bettor than that; but they thought they could make some capital by pretend? ing to put such a construction on it, for thc boucfit of a great many who won't road the message at all, but will tako their word for its contents. I noithor said, nor meant to say that I wouldn't execute that bill ; I never said, nor meant to say that of any law passod by Congress. My opinion of that and the other Reconstruction Bills is that, if there is any Constitution left in this country-if there is any of it still remaining-they are clearly inviola tion of it. I think that s as clear as any proposi? tion in mathematics can be. There may bo doubts as to tho constitutionality of some bills, but I don't think there can bo any as to these, and espe? cially the last ono. Woll, that bill was sent to mo for my approval. I couldn't give my approval, so I sent it back with my objections, stating why I couldn't sign it. Does that prove, because I ve? toed it, that I won't exocuto it ? If they havo dis? regarded tho Constitution in passing it, as I think they have, it's no reason why I should disrogard it by not executing a bill passod in the mode pre? scribed by tho Constitution, by tho required two tliirds majority. A bill may bo votooa oithor on the ground of oxpediency or on tho ground of con? stitutionality. In oithor ovont it becomes as much a law after it has been passed by a two-thirds ma? jority over tho veto, as if it had roccivod the ap? proval of tho Executive. So, of course, there is nothing loft for mo to do but to execute that bill until it is either repealed or modified by Congress, or sot asido by a competent judicial tribunal. I think those men would have dono" a good deal bet? tor if, instead of twisting a false construction out of a son tonco or two of that message, they had answered some of tho reasons which I assigned for not approving the bill." THE NEGRO QUESTION. On this subject the President said that so far from settling, the recent legislation of Congress would but inaugurate in real earnest, tho question of equality of the two races. It might havo worked itself out to a peaceful solution if they bad let it ? L lildrliiftii1" '* * foicod growth bv the hasty brtrrmnruri of thc negro rV~- ...?> w??u to bis present condition in tho South, and tho rc 8ult could Dot bo good. Tho poople of tho North, he thought, would soo this before long, and thore would be a reaction. "Ibeso men," said ho,1 'who insist so much on negro equality, novcr bad any real love for tho negro. Thero always was moro of what thoy call negro equality in tho South than in the North; that is, tuero has always been loss fooling against tho negro tboro than in tho North, and there is less to-day, if they would only lot tho Southern peoplo alone. Thero is Sumner, for instanco, what has ho evor dono for tho negroes V Havo you over Been his namo to a subscription paper for their benefit in any way V I never have, and they are always bringing such things here, asking for this, that and tho other, to help tho Eoor and needy among th?j colored folks. I don't oliovo Sumner ovor gave a cent. Then again. laBt New Year's day, we had a public reception at the Whito House." Tho negroes carno along with tho white folks, thoy mixed in the crowd, and thoy were as xtfti. treated as anybody oise. Sunnier had a rocoption that day, but I didn't hoar of any ne? groes calling on bim, and I guess he wouldn't have tioatcd thom very woll if thoy had called. Anti yet ho will?havo nothing now "but that tho entire machinery of tho ton States in tho South shall bo put into tho hands of those negroes, and any man who doubts whether this would bo oxpedicut, in view of tho past condition of tho negroes, and their lack of opportunity to fit thcmsolvos for what ho wants to do with them, ho denounces as a rebel and a traitor, according to his notion." ABOUT niPEACHMENT. Mr. Johnson said ho could hardly toll what to think of tho action of tho House on"the question of impeachment-first ordering tho report to bo made, and then rotusin? to lot Mr. Wilson make it. Ho referred to tho subject good naturedly, mid as ono, who, though deeply nitero-ted, was not very fearful of resalta. It would bc Btrango, he said, if thov couldn't make a caso out, after all the tumble thoy had gono to. "They oven examined my pri? vate banking account, to find about somo bonds that I bad. I have had thoso bonds for a good many yeats. Whenever I got any monoy I put it into thom. Somo I got whilo I was a mechanic. Thov were tho only tilings I saved out. of thc war; all tho rest of my property that could bo carried off, I lost." Ho spoke of the action of tho House in ordering tho arrest of Lafayette C. Baker for not answering to a summons from tho Judiciary Committee, and wondered wtiat moro they oxpectod him to swear to. "I un? derstand," said ho, "that he testified to having got possession of a letter written byrne to Jeff. Davis, during tho war, while I was in Nashville. I think ho says ho got it through Jim Brownlow. Now tho fact is, I never wroto a letter to Jeff. Davis, before, during, or sinco tho war. Davis and I never agreed vory well, and ncvor liked each other. If you'll look in tho Globo, you'll lind this from a debato between RB on a bill "ot Davis'for the increase of tho regular army. I was opposed to thc bill; first, because I thought I saw in it something Uko tho inauguration of tho secession war, and then, I was opposed to a big standing army al? ways. Davis had just boon Secretary of \Yur, and I knew whoro all tho new appointments would como from, and what kind of men they'd be. 1 hunted up all sorts of authorities against hts pro? position, and ospecially the writings of Washing ion, where the militia is spoken of aa the great army of thc Constitution. I thought that was a beautiful ajid truthful idea." I then said to tho President that it had boen asserted that he was intimate with Wilkes Booth at Nashville. Ho roplicd that ho had never seen Wilkes Booth that ho was aware of. Booth might have called upon him at thc Capitol in Nashville, as a great many persons did, but bc could not re? member it. It had been said that Booth played at tho theatre, in Nashville, while bo was Provis? ional Governor, but ho had no recollection of it, and ho uever wont to tho theatre while he was Provisional Governor. "It is very hurd," said ho, "that such charges as this should be made against mo in CongrcsB, and that there ia no redress lor mo, after thoso making thc accusation have had an opportunity to prove it, aud have failed to show tho slightest iouudation fox it. Lung niter I am dead and gone, people will see where I have been charged with that dreadful crime by men making prepared speeches in Congress. Thiit will be his? tory. The accusation will be quoted; but thore will be uo retraction to offset it, Sometimes I think about this very seriously, and I often wonder if tho peoplo really beliovo what these men have Baid." THE CAUSE OF MB. ASHLEY'S DISLIKE. Referring to tho member from Toledo, and re? plying to a question as to what was tho primal cause of that gentleman's anger toward the ad? ministration, Mr. Johnson related the following interesting circumstance : Soon after my acces? sion-(I think it was the day alter the assassina? tion of Mr. Lincoln-not much later at. all ?rente), Air. Ashley called on me and said that he bad made a bargain with Mr. Anson Herrick, of New York, a Democratic member of tho Thirty-eight Congress, that if hu would vote for the constitutional amend? ment abolishing slavery, he (Ashley) would get the appointment ot Internal Revenue Collector for his (Herrick's) brother. Ashley said Herrick had per? formed his part of the bargain, and now he must have thc colleotorship for his brother, accord? ing to agreement. Ho seemed to bo very domineering, just as if ho had a right to say what he wanted, and have it done forthwith. 'Well,' said I, 'I don't know nbout that. I am glad the amendment waa pass? ed by Congress, because there seem to bo some doubta aa to the validity of the emancipation pro? clamation, and this will settle the question in the right way. I don't know whether 1 am to take the Presidency cum ouvre, as they say when you buy a tann -with all thu impediments.' 1 iudorso, and shall carryout tho measures and policy ol' Slr. Lil coln':) administration, hut I can't bc a party to any such bargain with Mr. Herrick <>r anybody else. Il' there is a vacancy, and Mr. Herrick's brother is recommended by the Secretary of thc Treasury as a competent person to lill it, I will make tho appointment. But I won't turn anybody else out, or appoint an incompetent man, to pay for a'vote in Congress.' Ashley got vory much vexed at tliiH, und weut off iu a great rage. Her rick's brother was appointed, but not until he bad boen recommended through tho propor channels. Charles A. Dana also called upon me to help Ash? ley in this matter. Ho also insisted that tho bar? gain was made in good faith, and must bo carried out. Ashloy has been my enemy ever since." Writing from Washington immediately alter the passago of the thirteenth amendment, I showed how tlirco or four other mon had bcou bribed-all Democrats-whose absenco when the vote was being taken had boen brought about by a bargain with a loading railroad monopoly. It was all done through Mr. Ashley. Perhaps many aro willing to justify tho means for the sako of the end in this case-to violate thc injunction of tho Apostle, and do evil that good may come. But no fact in human nature is more clearly demonstrable than that a man who will corrupt others is not incorruptible himself; no man over offered a bribe who wouldn't, under cer? tain circumstances, tako one; and no Congress? man ovor bought another's vote until ho had sonio experience iu tho mercantile value of such articles by selling his own. Tho matter containod in thiB paragraph is a fit snbjoct for tho Judiciary Com niiiteo, or somo other committee of investigation. Lot a fair chanco bo given to let all the tacts bc known, or, as Mr. Johnson said to mo on the subject, "Let them clean out tho Augean stablo entirely when thoy aro at it. They have beon en? quiring into my corruption; now let them enquire a little into their own." THE PRESIDENT AND POLITICAL PARTIES. Tho President expressed tho fear that tho work of restoring the Union would snffor from tho com? binations and plans for the next Presidency, al? ready in a state of formation. As far ' as ho was concerned, he said, bo had no ambition for an? other term, and was not, and never had been, a candidate for re-election. "I am not seeking any nomination, but I want a 1 the friends I can get to help mo save tho country, and 1 don't care what party they como from. BeJbro I sent my first message to Congress, I told all tho Republicans who called upon mc that if they would go to work and get .the States back into tho Union, and re? store harmony and good feeling between the two sections, I would give them a bond in any sum they could namo never to ask for an office and never to hold one again. I told them then what I think now-that, aside from tho higher considera? tions of patriotism and public duty, aa a mere question of party oxpodiency, they ought to do this. I said to thom that tho South was ' hipped; that tho people felt they had been put down by thc arbiter of their own selection, and wero rcadv to accept tho situation in good faith; and that if tho Republican party of tho North would deal fair? ly and generously with them, it could be assured of twenty yeaie of power with the South ita frienda. I told them that those States must como back somehow, and it waa for thom to say whether as fri ci ul s or as enemies of tho dominant party of tho N Ttl;. If thero wero any rebels left in the South, tho Republican party could have conquered them by tho courso I suggested. That was clear to my mind then, and it is more so now." Concerning tho Democratic party of tho North, ho said some Democrats wero very reasonable, others very unreasonable, in their demands of him, Somo wanted him to give all tho offices to Demo? crats ; others didn't ask any thing of tho kind. Some insisted on his changing bis Cabinet and doing everything to suit them. "If I had taken all t.io advice that's been given to mc, I don't know whero I should have been by this time. Ono set of mea will como in and lay down a plan which thoy think will do a great deal of good. They'll go out and in will come another sot equally confident in an entirely different plan. I am always glad to get advice, out somo mon got mad at mo because I don't tako it. Thoy don't appear to understand how difficult it is for mo to soe tilings from the samo stand-point wi th them sometimes. Thoy aro outsido, as it wore, and can't be expected to seo all tho bearings aa I do. But they'll come here and storm and fret at mc because I won't let them take chargo of mo, and do the whole business. Now while I am hero I don't intend to be taken chargo of by any body. I intend to do what's right, as nearly aa I can get at it, and I won't shirk tho con hCqucncoa, that may arise from .that courso. I can't please everybody, and it's no use trying. It's all very well to get advice, and I am thankful for it always, but tho responsibility for acting upon it falls "upon mo, so I must be tho judge." II0BACE OREELET. On tho subject of Groelev'a nomination as Minis? ter to Austria, Mr. Johnson saul ho had seen it stated that this was an idoa cf Seward's to got Grocloy out of tito country. "Greeley, and Weed and Soward hs VC beon quarreling for some timo," said ho, "and I have heard it said that Seward got this appointment to put Greeley out of tho way. There ia not a word of truth in that. The 8tato Department didn't suggost Greoley'a name at all. We agreed upon a hst of appointments in Cabinet on Friday, and I acnt Greeley's name to tho Senate ?utbout its coming through the Stato Department in tho regular way. His appointment waa not suggested to mo by anybody. Thoy had objected to liavniond. I was anxious to seo thc placo filled, and ? wauled a mau who was honost and capablo tnoffgttVie'wouIil suit,' andTdidn't'tenitTiio Sen? ate would throw him overboard. Greeley has qt:ocr notions about somo things; ho has bia freaks and his whims; and ho has not beon very friendly to mo, but I have always thought him an honest man. ?So I thought I'd send him in, and I did BO without consulting any? body. But it seems they have somo ob? jection to him too. Meantime, tho mission IB vacant, but tho fault of the vacancy is not minc. I have dono my duly toward tilling it. A. J. ON OENERAL ( i KANT. Speaking of Presidential candidatos and aspi? rants, Mr. Johnson asked mo if I had any idea what was the nature of Goneral Grant's testimony before thc Judiciary Committee. I told bimi ou'y knew of tho rumor that lia I been floating about Washington, attributed to Mr. Eldridge, a Democratic member of tho Judiciary Committco, to thc effect that Grant's testimony mado him a good candidate for thc Democracy; but that I had also heard that tho Radical mouibors of tho Com? mittee asserted the very reverse of this, and claimed thc testimony as 'fitting Grant for a Radi? cal nomination. Tho President replied that ho had regarded Grant ns an endorser of his policy all along. "Yon will remember," said he, "that tho mess gc for which I was first deuouueod in tho Senate as whitewashing tho condition of affairs in tho ?South, was based partly upon information fur? nished by General Grant in Ins report, which ac? companied that message. I have ncvor spoken very much to General Grant on the subject of polities, but I should be surprised to find out at this time that ho has beon opposed to what I have been attempting to do for the restoration of tho Southern States." These wore tho words of the President on this point, as nearly as I can remem? ber them; they express tho idea, at any rate. My impression is that when Grant's testimony ia printed, it will be hard to determino from it whether Ulysses is on both sides or on neither at tho present writing. TUE STATE OF THE COUNTRY. Frequently during tho conversation tho Presi? dent spoke of the condition of tho country as ex? tremely perilous and beset with many difficulties. "First,'* said he, "there are ten States totally dis? organized and torn to pieces. It is hard to seo bow, under tho existing laws, this mattor cnn bo satisfactorily settled iq). Then there is tho Mexi? can question-and a very complicated quostionit is, too. Men may talk us they please in Congross ami on the .-tump about it, bul it is a subject that mast bo orrong od by tho law of nations. I don't wish tu bc understood us saying exactly what will be done about it, but merely to say that it will be a difficult and complicated question? to adjust bc foto wo get altogether through with it. Then there's a great national debt to pay, nnd thc peo plo are getting restive under a heavy taxation. Then wo have an Indian war on our hands, tho possible extent and cost of which aro not easy to foresee. Now, all these things demand attontion, and I fear they will bc lost sight of in tho great struggle for the Presidency. Tho country needs nil tho friends it can get now, irrespective of par? ly, to help save it from breakers. Any man who will help me in tim work is my friend, ? don't care what bis politics may be."
