COFFEE. CORRESPONDENCE.

wAsHIseTos, March is, 1884.
The President daily advances step by step in
despotc measures. hut the other day, he told
the Senate they must approve the non,ination Of
his Directors, or he would nominate no others;
and yesterday he refused TO receive the Com
mittee from Philadelphia who desired to confer
with him As to existing difficulties in the money
market! have not yet learnt from an authentic
source the exact terms Of the refusal j only
learn the fact, and hear that the reason he as
signs is, that some committees have msrepresent-
ed him. The question might be put here, why
does he talk so much?-why does he talk all the
time, engrossing the whole conversation? The
request 10 not, that he shall declam and get into
a tempest of passion, and talk about "Andrew
jackson" and "the Deserts of Arabia" and "the
Golden Calf" but that he shall listen to the petit
tons and representations Of the People--that he
shall hear Of the public distress, and no longer
doubt its existence, or attribute il to wrong caus
es. But what is the fact now? Our Sovereign
has shut the doors of the White House in The
faces Of the People. Our King has done what
no other King dare do. A Republican President
does what would cost Monarch his throne. He
turns deaf car to public calamity. He blocks
up the avenues that reach him, and shuts out all
truth. He immures himself more securely in the
prison Of the Kitchen Cabinet, land with such
scntnels how can he be any other than such
President as he is,
Let US no longer boast Of freedom, and of the
beauties of our Constitution, while President
chosen by a free People excludes the People from
their own mansion when they come to him re-
qucsting redress of grievances, while no Mon
arch in Europe dare thus rudely drive away his
subjects when on such an errand. -
The Committee from Boston how in this city,
lcarningthe fate Of the request Of the, Philadel-
phia Committee, will not nasle an attempt to call
upon this modern reclusc. N they succeed in
getting into his presence, all they have to expect

however, coming on, who wiIImaAe the nttempt
to break through this new net (which the Kitchen
Cabinet have cast around ff,e President, and to
throw upon him the light Of truth. When gem
tlcmen have called upon him lately. not his poli'
tical friends, he has been in the habit Of seizing
pen and scratching away at furious rate, if he
had something OF mighty Importance to do--a
rudcness which NO man oughf to DO guilty Of in
his audience hours, when all fhe preceding Presi-
dsnts were perfectly At liberty and at leisure.
