The Committee appointed to present the j proceedings of the Cleveland Convention, waited on the President to div. General Granger, in tho course of his remarks, re- j f?rrea to tho congratulatory despatch sent by Forrest and other ex-Confederates, and said tho true spirit of the Southern men was there exhibited, and no one had a right to doubt thc honesty and sincerity of I heir declarations. Tho President, in re? sponding, said, while the war was a phy steal contest, connected, of courue, with intelligent people as far as the scene of war was concerned, the strife now'ia purely of a civil character, for tho establishment of a basis upon which our institutions aro to rest hereafter. The query which now arises is whether tho character anil genius of tho nation is tobo subverted, or whe? ther it ?H to be settled upon the principles nf the Constitution. 1 think we are now at the most important crisis of our country's history, when we are to lix a substantial and enduring basis upon which tho institutions of the country are to rest. Wc are to return to the constitu? tional limits establishing tho great, fact that this is a Government t>i limitations - that it bas a written Constitution, mid that tho boundaries arr- to bo observed and strictly guarded, if free government is to exist; and, coming ont of a rebellion, we ought to demonstrate to mankind that a . free'government cannot exist upon hatred, distrust and ill will; and that, with us, the time has como fora re-establishment id'all . the relations of the States to the Federal Government. This 1 look upon as being of ?qua! importance with any part ol'the war, if not the most important part. I have said more than I intended; but 1 repeat, t hat tho encouragement, tho countenance and the confidence given me, coming from t he source it does, is peculiarly acceptable tome; and, God being willing, I trill, with your help, pursue the course I have been pursuing, in the effort to Have our Govern? ment. I know it bas been said, that thc founders of tho Government arc entitled to the moat conspicuous placo in the his? tory of our country; but my opinion is, that, tho preservers of the Government should occupy the most important place.

NAPOLEON ANO MAXIMILIAN.- The recent, refusal of Napoleon to permit French officers to serve under Maximilian in Mexi? co, evinces a deference to the trishes (if this Government which is very gratifying. Tho reason which tho Emperor alleges for this decision is an unwillingness on his port to conflict with the Monroe doctrine, which is held so dear by tho American peo? ple, ?ind a disinclination t:i oppose thc views of the United states Government. While it must be necessarily a matter of pride to the American public tn lind that tho course of the french Emperor with regard to Mexico is directed by a (lue c in sideration for their opinions, wc are dis? posed to feel some pity for Napoleon under the atllietions and humiliations which tho ??ourse of events lias brought upon him. He has had to submit to many drawbacks <>f late. His schemes have been th ?arted in so many quarters, ho has had to'.. eh ont of his carefully digested plann so otu : within the past year or two, thal the pres? tige of his dynasty has Buffered very se? verely. Bismarck completely outwitted him in his arrangements in the German war. He was cheated out of Iiis favorite european Congress, in which he hoped to have a voice in the reconstruction of tho map of Europe. Prussia tool: tho com? pass and pencil in hand and measured off the continent to suit herself. He was foiled ii? his attempt to provoke a renewal o? tho war, according to late accounts, and in every way he has been obliged to forego his plans for thc extension ot French territory and tiie divinion of cen? tral Europe. His Mexican attempt has proved a complete fiasco; for ho has boen compelled to retrace all his steps in that country. His protege. Maximilian, is now wholly abandoned to his tate. Not only is the French contingent of troops being withdrawn, but even the services of volun? teer officers or the French army aro de? nied him, "owing to the protest of the Cuited States Government. French inte? rest in Mexico, therefore, is abandoned, and Maximilian must make tho best limo he can in clearing out pf the country. [JV?'C York Herald. Interview willi Mr. Davis. Mr. John D. Koily furnishes the Peters? burg Inder with un interesting account of a recent visit to Fortress Monroe, and an interview he had with Mr. and Mrs. Davis. We extract thc following paragraphs: At this time, we saw a slender, shadowy, tottering f?rm approach tho door. ??01110 thing bi my heart told me it was Mr. Davis. Strange, mystic human heart, with its divinations and prophecies! Bible of the truel Infallible God-word to every human soul that has everbeeiunaguetized with lev?! I bad known this man at a time when his word swayed au empire, composed of as noble ifleii and as glorious God-gifted women as has ever appeared in the tido of time. I have obtained at his hands the sparing of tho lives of forty seven Confederate soldiers during thc war. 1 got off fourteen Federal soldiers con? demned to death, i got his written per? mit-no order-to allow mo to visit all the Federal prisons and alleviate, in all lawful ways, their sufferings. 1 have prayed at this good man's bed-side for a blessing of God upon him commensurate to the mercy he might extend tu others, and that ho might hope for himself, should the changes of time ever make him a suppliant for this beneficence. And now he is before mu a prisoner good God! how changed! Tho last time 1 saw him, his brow seemed decked, not only with a crown of intelligent glory, but with a sort of "primus inter pores"-halo of all the kingly chivalries of the past ages. Now, he was bent, broken, reeling. But. oh! that voice, its timbre, cadence, tone! "I am glad to see you, Mr. Keiley; your hair is whiter than it"was that beau? tiful autumn morning that you prayed bj my bedside in Bichmond. Your heart, too. j has been seared. Well, thank God, amids! it all. and by it all, wp are ripening for th< skies." "Mr. Davis, has it never occurred j to you that not victorious but defeated causes, when founded on truth and honor are linally victorious in the flow of thc ages? Who was the greatest man, Tibe r?as at ('aproa, ?unk in the infamies o sensualism, or the Nazarine, crowned wit! thorns and uttering those words of powei amid the agonies of tho cross: 'Father forgive them: they know not what thc do?*" ''True," said Mr. Davis, "no goo" cause ever dies. Whatever was true in ou: theory of State rights will live and be yo adopted entirely by our Northern brethren The American people are eminent'? thoughtful and practical, assimilating t< themselves truth from every point; wit ness their wonderful improvements in tin practical arts. Yon know how the Nor mans conquered the Saxons ai Hastings how they oppiessed and wronged them yet, in the course of three centuries, th ideas of the conquered subdued their con querors and led the United Kingdom t the conquest of that very France w bene the conquerors came. Centuries in th past were no more than decades in th present. 1 have no fear as to th?! ult ?mat triumph of our principles, purified fror whatever was wrong or selfish in them, a yon and I have been purified by sorrow. "Do you remember, Mr. Davis, t hat couple of Lady Gnion's, translated by Cowper'.'" "The path of soi row, and that, path alone Leads to the place where sorrows are un known." "Yes, 1 remember it well, lt is the con pend of Christianity. The world ha never yet fully appreciated that aspect-tl) cece //oj) i o of Christ." "I have read moi in the old books, probably, than you hav< Mr. Davis; let me recite to von aninstanc in the life nf .lillian: He had oppresse and thwarted Cyril, of .Jerusalem, in vi rions ways; at last, on going to the Pat thian war, he met the good Bishop, i great distress on account of tho miseric of his thick. He then said to him: 'Cyri where is your carpenter God nowV Tl Bishop answered: 'Perhaps, making coffin for the Hornau Emperor.'" "I ba^ never heard that before, but it is full < significance, and a terrible rebuke to ni holy pride and self-confidence." After prayer, we proceeded to breakfas which had three covers, one each for M and Mrs. Davis, and one for me. Tl breakfast consisted of some nice rolls ai toast, good tea, butter, and a few oyster Mr. Davis eat very sparingly. I omitted to mention in its proper plac that Mr.s. Davis mot him at tue door, p her arms around his neck and kissed hu After he was seated, she brought him thc . little child, which he kissed, seated on 1: i knee, and. as I though;, by the motion his beautilully chiselled lips, prayed . crctly for. Aft.-r breakfast. Bishop Green, of M: sissippi, was introduced. The greet il was cordial .and affectionate. Mr. Da\ alluded with great delicacy to some fam: afflictions of the Bishop-to which t latter responded with a quivering lip ai a tearfuheye. Hereafter, I will give yoi: pen-and-ink picture of these two nu n they limned themselves on the canvass memory. Hci?o I only propose to give part of the conversation that occupi that whole morning.

SW1FFIEL ? yept li) BEDELL'S ROW Ktag&lsh, Opinion? PRESIDENT JOHNSON'S ADMINISTRATION NOT A KAIXUKE. Whatever view may be taken of thc po? litical character of Mr. Johnson's adminis? tration, nobody will pronounce it a failure. There is assuredly no sign of weakness or decrepitude in his management of affairs. In no empire in the world wcro the reins of power ever grasped with a firmer hand. As there is no vacillation in thc conduct of tho Pr?sident, so, lot it bo fairly admitted, there is no evidence that his measures aro dictated by caprice. He acts on clearly defined principles. Ho has long held cer? tain views of tho American Constitution, of tho scope of tho Executive, the duty of Congress, and tho rights of tho States. Theuo views are not peculiar to him; they have, on the contrary, beon held by tho most accomplished statesmen the country has produced, from tho dayfc of George Washington to tho present time. What is peculiar to tho President is tho firmness with which he adheres to them lu tho face of opposition, and his determination to mako them tho guide of bis policy to the cud of his official career. All parties have been deceived in President Johnson. Cm his first accession to office, the radicals expected from bim a heartier support than they had found in Mr. Lincoln. Of Mr. Lincoln, they had but ono apprehension. He was gent?o and placable. He harbored uo thought of vengeance. He wa8 anx? ious to smooth tho way for tho return of tho Southern States, and might, it was feared, bo lcd to overlook tho precautions that ?.vero necessary. From him, espe? cially, the Southern "leaders had nothi.ig to fear. He would act justly; but justice in his hands might bo so largely tempered with mercy as to become inoperative or mischievously lenient. President Johnson was a man of sterner mould. Thero was something grim and almost savage m his temper. From him, it was believed, thc Southerner would look in vain for any com? passion; and somo wont even so far as to fancy they saw thc hand of Providence in transferring the task to this severe and unrelenting man. The South was equally deceived. Lincoln was hated as an emancipationist and conqueror; but Johnson was loathed as a recreant; and his conduct in Tennes? see inspired every Southerner with the keenest misgivings. They feared that hanging and confiscation would bc tho order of thc day, and that the South would bi? completely crushed. Never was expecta? tion more absolutely behoved, yet it would be. unjust to charge the President with having been a party to deception. His principles are the same-the change bas taken place in thc facts with which he has had to deal. While the Union was in dan? ger, and tho cause of emancipation was doubtful, he was one of the most violent and intrepid adversaries of tho South. But at the moment he assumed power, the war was at an end; the South was every? where submissive; the authorities of Gio Federal Government was once more ac? knowledged as supreme throughout tho length and breadth of tho Confederation. Probably his unexpected elevation awoke a corresponding sense of responsibility, and led him to exchange the passions of the partisan for those, broad and calm views which befit tho ruler of a great people at such an extraordinary epoch. Certain it is that be at once marked out ti line of policy from which he has never swerved, and has displayed, in the mainte? nance of that policy, a courage and sclf relianco which must extort the admiration of his bitterest opponents. The struggle, which has now gone on for eighteen months between the President and Congress, afibrds r? spectacle which Englishmen find it difficult to understand. When they hear the President denouncing Congress, and thc leading politicians in Congress denouncing tho President, each selecting the most forcible language they can lind, and hardly stopping short of vio? lent vituperation, they are tempted to think tbat the Government" must be in a state of utter confusion, and the nation itself on the verge of anarchy. When they see the Legislature and the Executive taking dia? metrically opposite views on questions ot public policy, questions, moreover, of fun? damental importance, and of the widest range, they jump to the conclusion that the system which can lead to such results' is a failure, and that it must ahnest be a matter of chanco whether such a conflict will not be settled by a recourr-e to revolu ? tionary violence. Americans take these things more coolly. Their trained instinct? enable them to gauge tho evil, arni seo itt limits, which, after all, are not very ex? tensive. There are two or three facti which may help ns to survey the state ol afi'airs from au American point of view. In the first place, neither the President not the Congress', nor both united, possosso. supreme power. The Parliament of Great Britain, consisting of the three estates o: . the realm, is sovereign, supremo and abso? lute. There is no legislativo act to which ii is not competent, lt catt do anything, to us< Blackstone's illustration, but make ti mai a woman. We talk vaguely of the Consti tut ion, but tho Constitution is just whal Parliament would make it. There is m such supremo and sovereign body i:. thc United States. Sovereignty resides in tin peuple alouo, and a written Constitu?ioi lays down preciso limits, beyond whicl neither President nor Congress may ven turc Then, by th? Constitution of tin United States, Congress and the President aro two separate powers, and aro suppoaei to act in entire independence of ead other. If Congress wcro to become subservieu to the President, or the President to tin Congress, the balanco of the Constitutior would be upset, and ono of the guaran?eei for wise Government, created by the found ors of the Constitution, would be destroyed The veto, for example, was never meant ti be a merely dormant power. It was mean i to be usedj and the Presiden', by his oath : is bound to use it, to check the passing o j any measure which ho believes to be eithei i inexpethent or contrary to tho Constitu j tion. Again, a conlhet between Congres: I and tho President occasions no interrup I tion in the business of administration, am ; need not lead it even to a change of minis j try, while, at the longest, it cannot las j more than four yoars, at the end of whicl j period tho sovereign power steps in am I re-arranges the wholo machinery. In thi j Government of tho United States, all par ; ties aro out-spoken, because tho people an the final resort, and words aro wastci which do not eomo to their ears. Hi na I tho dirty linen of tho State is washed ii ' public and hung up to dry before th. j world. It might be more decorous to di it in private, but publicity is the fashion 1 and tho result is that the worst is known j There are no latent dangers; or. tho con : trary, all dangers that exist arc apparent and aro generally much greater in appear ance than in reality. So much by way o I explanation, and not of apology or" defence ! In all probability, a few months will brim i about harmony between tho Executive am ; the Legislature of tho United States. Ii ' the meantime, what seems to ns to be con : tlict, is nothing moro than tho rather euer j gctic wielding of constitutional woaponx : If tho energy employed seems to tis ex ' cessive, and the antagonism extreme, w j must remember that tho crisis throug i which tho United States are passin I should be compared, not with tho quit j times of Quoen Victoria, but with those < ! the Commonwealth and the Revolution. [Manchester (Enq.) Examiner, Thc Ultimate Design of ?lie Radical Revolutionists. If we may form an opinion of the course of the present radical majority in Con? gress, upon their meeting here in Decem? ber, from public manifestations, like the recent audacious one o! Senator Wade, and givings out in private, then an at? tempt at impeachment of the President, by the rump Congress, is a foregone con? clusion. If wo did not know that revolutionists aro never deterred from pursuing their purposes by any regard to the conse? quences, we would bo incredulous as to this outrage being attempted. Put all history shows that a party under the influ? ence of fanaticism, once embarked on the voyage of revolution, never pauses of its own motion. The English revolution, in which Charles I lost his head, and in which the entire frame of tho Government was overturned, instructs us as to what may bo expected of a radical party once in possession of power. So a party less under tho influ? ence of religious fervor, but even more humanitarian, by the horrors it committed in the French revolution, admonishes of the vast perils which lie under captivating sentiments. Liberty, equality and frater? nity were tho sublime words under which France grew- drunk with crime. In England, Cromwell, one of the most, remarkable men in history, rescued his country from the madness of fanaticism. In Franco, it required the great genius of Napoleon to restore society to its natural condition. In the United States, a party as danger? ous, if not as truly brave, as" the Hound heads in England and tho Jacobins in France, i?j now midway on its triumphal career. What is to be the finale ol' this party? If they re?oive tho impress of tue public sanction, and are left to their own philso phy, can they atop short ol' the most fatal results? We see no difference between that party and those partios which, in the name of liberty, brought Great britain ami Frauce so near to the brink of rum. Such is tho lorin of our Government, and such is its spirit, more potent than its form, that thore in no place for the one man power. A heroic Executive may, as President Johnson is now doing, throw himself into tho breach and temporarily arrest the progress of tho revolution: but this delay is only temporary. The question goes to tito people for their decision. If they decide against thc Executive, nuder such circumstances, the revolution re? sumes its march with increased power and velocity. Foreign wars will at once spring into existence; and as to homo affairs, we have a tearful foreshadowing in a late speech of the newspaper representative of the revolutionists. We quote from a speech of John W. Forney, at Lackawanna, Pa., on Saturday: "If the Southern people tb? not ratify this (negro equalization) amendment, or if tb? y defeat it, what then? I think I see by the glitter nf your eyes, and 1 know by the throbbing of my heart, thai if tiley should er be guilty < d' this new infatua? tion, tho war that would ensue would establish this fad, that that which has passed wa? bul a child's play or as a pic? nic t i that which will cone-. The army t hat will go t"> the Southern count ry will go there to stay: it will not be au army of invasion, but an army of migration: it Will not go t her.- to revenge, bu! to extirpate. Brownlow** remedy will indeed be tried; there will be three columns tin-one to kill, tin- si.nd to burn, lin- third lo di? vide thc plantations among the men that go down the second time to avenge the in? sulted Hag of our country. 1 sei this sub? lime resolv?' m tim glitter of your eyes, and 1 feel it in the throbbing of my heart I feel it everywhere I hoai it in the trumpet voiee of destiny. That wo shall nm prevail against these men, is to expect that (b.d is dead." XattOlUll ?nt. v;.;, "e,;\ - -??.?? From 'J'IXIIK. Of the l'.ivnham artair, the ( ?ril?un, of the 15th, says: lt is said that a committee of tim Legis? lature is to he sent to investigate tho cir? cumstances of the burning of Brenhani by L'nitetl Statis soldie!;i. A military com? missi.in is aln adv engaged ?ll tl similar investigation. In the meantime, a gentle? man from denham informs the Te.l*i/ra?t!i that the citizens generally are armed, and keej) out a guard of fifty lin n, who prevent the entrance into the town of any of the soldiery, while the latter are in camp a hi? -if distance from the town, torte,1 up and engaged in digging ride-pits. The loss resulting from the contlagratii ni is estimated ar #15:1,700, divided among some t birtv citi/' us. The Sau'Antonio Herald, ol the 12th, in? forms us that a suddi n rise of the San Antonio Liver, on thu lit it, overflowed that city. It opened in th?: city about .? . ?"clock, and was at its highest about daylight. It came so suddenly that persons in one portion of tho city, who were asleep, awoke to lind themselves in water varying in depth from Six inches til S?X feet. Wagons and nuiles were drowned, (wagons as well as mules,} while teamsters bari ly escaped by tho skin of their te< th with their pantaloons anil shoes. Fishing for wagon-, was a gay and festive employment they looked" like young steamboats, and mules like whales. In many cellars connected with stores near thc river, the water wan from four to ten feet deep. Tho f.ss resulting i > sugar, flour, salt, etc., was great. An immense mass meeting was held at San Antonio on the Mb, to ratify the pro? ceedings of the Philadelphia National Convention. Among thu speakers was Col. Antonio Navarro, one of the heroes of Texan independence, and Cid. t hanibliss, U. s. A. Tho bishop ol Texas, Dr. Gregg, who had stalled out on a tour of visitation, had returned, owing to sickness and a death m his family. Cholera was badin San Antonio on the" 111 h. a ml the District Judge bad released the accused in jail on their own rec.ignizanevs. Tho San Antonio Ledger says Many ot our freedmen and women arc being turned out of their houses jn our city, in default of paying rent, ami aro camping about tho city. The freedmen who went into the country to work last spring are receiving food for themselves and children, and men and women receive fifte en and twenty dollars a month besieh s. So that a man and Ins wife will have, at the close of tue year, about three hundred dollar', in their pockets-while those that lived in town and rent? d houses will, at tho close of the year, have empty pockets, and find themselves m-xt winter in the mud on the prairie in tho suburbs of thc city, and ninny of them will be in the peni? tentiary, and their children in their graves. This is the result of refusing to work in the country for love or money. We saw, yesterday, a negro man who went into the country Inst spring, and ho will raise thia year over 200 bales of cot? ton. He lias iiiiib-r Ins employ nearly thirty darkies, but says some of th? ni are ? d' but little account. ' He will make s?vi? rai thousand dollars this year. This shows w hat a freedman may do.
