New York, April 22.-The Tribune's
Washington special dispatch says while
President Lincoln was in Richmond Judge
Campbell told him that in an interview
with Davis, Breckenridge and Benjamin,
just before they left, he said to them that
as there was no hope for the Confederacy,
and President Lincoln could not negotiate
with them, he Uincoln) would nego,i.
ate with the States, and recognize the
right of the Virginia Legislature to con-
troll the troops of that State. He then
told Lincoln that if he could permit that
body to convene. it would doubtless re-.
call the Virginia troops from the field.
Lincoln cautioned Judge Campbell against
any misunderstanding, and gave him in
writing his only terms, which were those
rendered in the Hampton Roads inter-
view, to which he added another, that in
case the rebels persisted in war, their
property should be relentlessly con6s-
Gated.
On the way to Washington, Mr.. Lin
coin wrote an order to Gen. Weitzel to
permit the Virginia Legislature to con-
vene in Richmond for the purpose Of
Withdrawing the Virginia troops from the
rebel army, but not to allow the use Of
any treasoaable language, nor the adoP-
ton Of reasonable measures; but on the
very day of his death he received letter
from Judge Campbell. toned with his
usual insolence, ignoring altogether the
proposition which the President had made
to him, and urging that though the mill
tary power of the Confederacy was de.
stroyed, the spirit of the Southern people
was still unbroken. "H you want to
conciliate,"' he said. it will be wise fol
you to grant an amnesty, and it is neces.
sary for you to treat leniently public men,
and seek their assistance" This was toe
much even for Mr.. Lincoln's good nature
He characterized Campbelrs course as
ungrateful and outrageous.
Meanwhile, the surrender Of Lees army
obyiated the necessity for converting the
Virginia Legislature, and he sent an order
countermanding the call.
