W ashington, June ].

VdsHlHbtO uJ Julic y.
Rev. Drs. Tying, of New York, aud
Stephen Caldwell, of Philadelphia, re-
presenting the Freemens A: sociations of
those cities, waited OH Secretary Stanton
this morning, in company with Senator
Sumner, TO inquire into the authority un-
der which Gov. Stanley issued his order
closing the colored schools in North Caro-
ina. These gentlemen had official advices
that this had been done from Vincent Col
lier, who was teaching 1900 loyal blacks
when the order was issued. Secretary
Stanton showed them his instructions TO
Gov. Stanley, which contain not word
directing him to enforce the local laws of
North Carolina, nor do they in any other
way authorize the issue OF the order in
question. Sec'y. Stanton also said that
he would net remain one hour member
Of an Administration which sanctioned
such proceedings AZ that of Gov. Stanley,
and read his visitors the letters which be
had just written to that functionary, after
consultation with the President, in which
he was directed to revoke the obnoxious
order and to allow the schools to 90 on,
as heretofore. The commissions and in
structions TO Gov. Stanley aud Andy
Johnson we're to-day sent into tie Senate
in response to Senator Sumner rceolu
ton of enquiry. The commissions sim.
ply constitute them Military Governors Of
their respective States, to keep the peace
and maintain the national power. Their
instructions are IN Very general terms,
and prescribe duties such as are suggested
IN their commissions a. quoted above ;
not a word in either about enforcing local
laws.
