II The Washington correspondent Of the
N. Y. Evening Post says: Prominent Repub-
licans who have had interviews with the Presi.
dent within few days, assert confidently that
he agrees with the average sentiment of Con-
gress upon the subject Of reconstruction. At
Cabinet meeting held on Friday last the
President expressed himself in strong terms Of
Idisapprobation Of the South, because Of its ap
parent refusal to accept the terms Of recon.
struction held out.
T The N. Y. World. of Friday, says: "Gen.
Lee writes to a gentleman in this city in refer
ence to the recent senseless rumor that he had
requested permission Of the Government to re-
tain certain pieces of artillery at Lexington for
the use of his students: Il have nothing to do
with the Military Institute here; did not know
there were any guns here; have no use for any
guns, and never made an application for
them"
G Some financial wags in New York, not
sympathizing with the anxiety of a number Of
fnanciers to obtain an early copy of the report
Of the Secretary of the Treasury. procured
some of the yellow paper covers with which the
report is bound, and stitching in them about
fifty blank pages, created tremendous excite
ment among the anxious, and immense bids
we're at once made for a copy. There we're
great many we'll sold men as well as reports.
T Mr.. Buchanan has committed foolish
waste Of time and toll and money in Wiling
and publishing book to vindicate his course
as President just before and after the breaking
out of the rebellion. IL is not worth while 70

ed and the punishment universal condemns
tion and contempD inflicted. Benedict Arnod'
ghost might as well attempt to reverse 'ns
worlds decision as James Buchanan.
IL Hon. Schuyler CoIfaI is highly comment
ed throu ghout the North for the sentiments ne
expressed in his late speeches. Senator sum
