* From Washington. WASHINGTON, February 12_No business waa transacted in Congress to-day. It being tba birth-day of the late President Linco|li, tho Hon. George Bancroft deliver? ed an address on his memory, in the pre? sence of a highly distinguished audience. Tho war of tho roses has already begun. Since the demonstration at the White House,, .on. Wednesday, the radicals claim that they are the r?a? Administration par? ty, and that the President has apostatized. They hope to maintain a majority in Con? gress, and thus paralyze the reconstruc? tion efforts of Provident Johnson. They denounce his speeches of Wednesday aa a premature veto of their favorite bille. President Johnson is inflexible. He has ..vlready prepared a proclamation declaring the war ended and the Union : restored, with civil Government in aH tho insurrec? tionary States. ~ ja . The selection ot a homogeneous Cabinet and subordinate appointments will follow the' proclamation. President Johnson in? tend* to carry .out his programme and look to the people for support. Tho masses here are delighted, and tho radical politi? cians mad at those movements. Gov. BRAMLH CTE OP KENTUCKY, OH THE FREEDMEN a BUREAU.-A few days ago, Judge S. S. Goodloe, of the City Conrt of Lexington, under the statute of Kentucky, fined a negro for having a pistol in his pos? session. Mr. Pinkerton, agent of the Freedmen's Bureau, took the case in hand , and notified Judge Goodloe,.that all such statutes were * no km ger valid, and requested him to. restore the negro his pistol and remit the fine. Judge Goodloe declined to do this, not recognizing any rule of procedure in his court but that of the .statutes of Kentucky. The matter was at this stage referred to Governor Bramlette, who, in answer to Judge Goodloe, says: "You take the correct view, of your duty. You have no power .to make, unmake, or amend laws, but must administer them as they exist. This you and all other officers should do, regardless of the menaces of the agents of a bureau which has no legal existence in Ken? tucky. The powers assumed by super-officials and agents of over? riding the laws and civil authorities of the State, could be firmly met and resisted in every legal form. The whole negro population being now free, are by our laws, as they now exist, secured and protected in their rights of life, liberty and property. The slave code has nothing to do ?frith the free negro now, and never did have. I have every reason to be? lieve that the present General Assem? bly will adopt suitable and wise provisions for the benefit of the freedmen. "Whether they do or not, Mr. Pinkerton ought to know that it is not your or bis province to make, amend, or disregard existing laws. Mr. Pinkerton would better subserve the true interests of the negro, and of the society and State in which he lives, by locking up his bureau and I losing the key, than by the course he seems bent on pursuing." The Go? vernor has turned the whole matter over to the Legislature CrRC?XAR TO NATIONAL BANKS. The Tribune's special says: It having been represented to United States Treasurer Spinner that a number of national banks located in cities where clearing houses are in operation have estimated their depo? sits subject to duty from the balances after exchanges at the clearing house, and not from the balance at the close of the day, as required by the regu? lations, hu has issued a circular letter to the cashiers of the national banks in such localities, in which he says that the former method cannot be accepted as correct, and requests them to inform him whether, in making up the semi-annual return of their books for the six months pre? ceding January 1, 18G6, they esti? mated the average of deposits from the balance at the close of the day, or from the balance after the exchanges at the clearing house. In conclusion, the Treasurer requests, in the event that the regulations in this respect were complied with by them, that an additional return be forwarded which shall contain a statement of the ave? rage of deposits, estimated from the balance of deposits at the close of the day the excess in the uverage of balances so returned, as made up after the exchanges at the clearing house, and that they remit to this office an amount equal to one-quarter of one per cent, on such differences ^ * ol computation. MURRELL REDIVIVUS.-It is stated that a -??gular organised band of thieves has been formed between Tupelo, Miss., and Fort Pillow, on the plan of John A. Murrell's gang, which existed all through the South? ern country several years ago. They have relay posts every twelve miles, and when a horse is stolen at either terminus of the hue, he is ridden ra? pidly to the first post by ona rider,, who procures another horse and re? turns, and is therefore nover absent long enough to create suspicion as to himself in the neighborhood from ?iden. One of >ost takes the stand beyond, ne line, -where ently removed vicinity wV-re iscoyery. IIRTING8, (rpm , at lowest mar by bale or half " in fine order. ? fe WARLEY. mtt*m ? rn r' ? .irn-Tn ? ' TK? negro**? Xeply. We published, yesterday, the an? swer of President Johnson tb Fred. Douglass and his associates. They publish tho following as their rejoin? der: ,. MR. PRESIDENT: In consideration of a delicate sense of propriety, as well as your intimation of indisposi? tion to discuss or listen, to a reply to views you were pleased to express to us in your elaborate speech to-day, the undersigned would respectfully take this method of replying thereto, believing, as we- do, that the views and opinions expressed in that ad? dress are entirely unsound and preju? dicial to the highest interest of our race as well as our country. We can? not do otherwise than expose the same, and, BS fft? BS may he in our power, arrest their dangerous influ? ence. . It is not necessary at this time to call attention to more than two or three features of your remarkable address. The first point to which we feel especially bound to take exception, is your attempt to found a policy op? posed to our enfranchisement, upon the alleged hatred on the part of the former slaves towards the poor white people of the South. We admit the existence of this hostility, and hold that it is entirely reciprocal, but you obviously commit an error by draw? ing an argument from an accident of a state of slavery and making it the basis for a policy adapted to a state of freedom. Hostility between the whites and blacks of the South is easily explained. It has its root and sap in the relation of slavery, and was incited on both sides by the tyranny of slave masters. Their mas? ters secured their ascendancy over j both the poor whites and the blacks by putting enmity between them. They divided both to conquer each. There was no earthly reason why the blacks should not hate and dread the poor whites when in a state of slave? ry, for it was from 'this class their master received their slave-catchers, slave-drivers and overseers. They were the men called on uppn all occa? sions by masters when any fiendish outrage was to be committed upon the slave. Now, sir, you cannot but per? ceive that the cause of this dread, is removed; also, slavery is abolished. The case is antagonistic. You must see that it is altogether illogi? cal. It is putting new wine into old bottles; mending new garments with old cloth; to legislate from slow hold? ing to slow driving of the persons of a people whom you have repeatedly declared it your purpose to maintain in freedom. Besides, even were it true, as you allege, that the feelings of hostility which they entertained toward the poor whites, while in a state of slavery, must necessarily remain now they are free, how in the name of Heaveu-we reverentially ask-can you, in view of your ex? pressed desire and proffered aid to promote the welfare of the black man, deprive him of all means of de? fence, and clothe him whom yon regard-as his enemy with the mono? poly of political power? Can it be possible that you would recommend a party which would arm the strong, and cast down the defenceless? Can you, by any possibility of reasoning,"* regard this as justice? Experience proves they are often abused; men are whipped oftener who are whipped easiest. Peace between races is not to be secured by degrading one and raising the other, by giving power to one and withholding it from the other. There can come a day when we can be removed from this country with? out a terrible shock to its prosperity and peace; besides, the worst enemy of the nation could not cast upon its fair name a greater infamy than to suppose that negroes could be tole? rated among them in a state of the most degrading slavery.
