The President and the Coiored People Of
N stract.

The President and the Coiored People OF
the District.
The colored people Of the District Of Colum-
bia, for whose removal Congress made an ap-
preparation and gave the President authority
in the prt misses, sent delegation to the Presi-
dent, and they have delivered to him the fol-
lowing letter:
To THE PRESIDENT:
SIR: The undersigned, OIL behalf Of their
c0lored brethren and Themselves, have called
upon your Excellency to learn when we
can take our departure TO the land promised us
by Yourself in the address made to us in this
your Executive mansion.
We have learned IRON the honorable Senator
Pomeroy, the Agent. OF Emigration, whom you
appointed TO conduct US to Chiriqui, that be is
ready, bis equipment engaged, and his provis-
Ions for the emigrants bought; that vessel
suitable has been found; that consent Of the
Government with its agreement to receive us
as citizens with equal rights and obligations
has been obtained; and that he ouly wants your
orders to announce the day of sailing, aud that
he can sail within a week u your order is given.
Many Of us, acting upon your promise, TO
send US 90 soon ~ one hundred families were
ready, have sold our furniture. have given up
our little homes, to go 10 the first voyage; and
now that more than five times that number
have made preparation, we End that there is
uncertainty end delay, which is embarrassing
us aud reducing our scauty means, until fears
are being created that these being exhausted,
poverty In still woree form than has met US,
may be our winter prospect.
We have eeen 1t stated In the newspapers
that you do not intend to let us depart. We
are not willing to believe that your Excellency
would invite Us TO make arrangements to 20:
would tell us that we could not live prosper
ously here; would create hopes and stimulate
US TO struggle for national independence and
respectable equality and when we had made
ourselves ready for the effort, in confident
belief Of the integrity Of the promise, that its
realisation will be withheld.
Congress has placed the power ard the means
solely In the bands of your Excsllepcy to aid
In removing us. You began the movement
You appointed Senator Pomeroy, In whom not
only the colored people, but tie whole coun-
try. have confidence, to see that justice should
be done rs In our removal. He has s"id be is
ready. We, therefore, earnestly beg that your
Excellency will now give him explicit orders
to Fall before the cold weather sets in 10 pinch
us here; before the storms OF winter shall make
our voyage hence a dangerous one.
The President, through bis private secretary,
replied to the deputation Of colored men, who
called to express their disappointment in The
delay at going 10 Csrt t:al America, tina: ho was
as anxious as he ever was for their departure;
that he had placed everything in the hands OF
Senator Pomersy, and tina, be could not see
hem then, but would do so in the course Of

| Tho Rebels Mean TO ReOccupy ksnawha q
Valley a.d the Charleston salt Works.
The Richmond Whig, of October 25, SAYS:

"The Lynchburg Republican learns ths,
some time ago General Loring was ordered 70
al u certain point on the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad, and by II certain route. Instead OF
reporting thus, he countermarched his oom.
mand back TO the Red Sulphur Springs, intend.
ing TO take circuit by Lewisburg: At these
Springs he was met by an order directing him
to turn his command over to Gen. Echos and
report In person TO Richmond.
This conduct Of General Loring is said to
have produced great CONSERVATION among the
people in the Kanawha valley, causing hun.
dreds Of them to q 20 from their homes rather
than fall again under the rule Of Lincoln. It
also turned back all the wagons going after
salt. General Echols has been ordered 10 re,
turn with his command to the valley, and
commenced his march on Saturday last. He
has issued proclamation for all persons to &c
| and obtain salt who may desire to do so
There seems TO be general feeling that Gen
| Eohols should continue in command, and thai
Gen. LoriDg should be sent somewhere slss."
