Mir DougIass-My own impression is
lha: the very thing ihal your Excelercy
would avoid in the Southern States, can
only be avened by The very measure that
we propose, and would state 10 my broth
er delegates that because ! perceive The
PfesdenI has taken strong ground iE taVof

which he has expressed. thought we had

The Presideni-l repeat, merely wanted
10 vindicate my views in reply 10 your ad-
dress, and not to enter into any general con-
lroversy, as could not well do SO undsr the
circumstances. Your statement was very
rank one, and ! thought il was due TO you
10 meet il 10 The same spirit.
MIR Douglass-T Thank yon, sir.
The President think you viii find, so
lar as lhe South is concerned, Thai If you

with your own: that the coIored people can
live ard advance in civilization TO better
advantage elsewhere, than crowded together
IN the south IL would be better for them.
Mr.-Douglsss-Bu the masters have the

right Of locomoion through the Southern
States now.
The President-F the master now con-

OuR GOVERNMENT AND THE NALPA-
RAISo BoMBARDMENr. The Washington
correspondent of the Philadelphia Ledger
SAYS:
1t has afforded 4 feeling of satisfaction
to the Government that Com. Rodgers
kept out of the recent bombardment of
Valparaiso hy the Spanish fleet. 1t is
known that he was strongly tempted to
interfere actively i'll the matter. and even
to blow up or otherwise annihiatc the
Spanish vessels should the 'bomhardment
actually he commenced, hut he was for
tunate!y saved from violating his instruct
ions to remain neutral by the refusal of the
iureign allies to join him in the fight. So
far the conduct of the Spanish Admir-
al is concerned, though some denounce his
conduct as brutal, open to censure, &c, it
is but proper to say that he simply oheyed
the orders of his Government. and it is
that Government, and not its naval repre-
sentative, with which the "injured neutral
powers have to deal.
