editor of the Cleveland Herald, writing to
his paper from the City Of Washington
it having been announced in debate by
a member of the House that the President
favored the bill enfranchising the colored
men of the District of Columbia--stated
that there was no fear among "LoyGI
'nacn" that the President would veto
the Suffrage act. Now, since the
circulation of the rumor, based upon the
authenticity of that mythical being the
distinguished Senator" that the Presi-
dent was opposed to this beneacent meas
ure, the Herald assumes an air of
vehement conservatism, cutting and
slashing among radical men after the most
mode of savage warfare. Hon.
Thaddeus Stevens, for being guilty Of ad-
vocating radical measures and placing the
seal of condemnation upon the treason Of
is denounced by that mild
and would-be organ Of the ad-
as "an irascible, dictatorial,
q superannuated old man of talent" No
party" says the Herald, "and no person,
I" is responsible for what Thad. Stevens
q says Indeed For the credit of the
country aad honor of the administration,
it is to be hoped that mo person is re-
sponsible for what" the Cleveland Her
ND g says" The next sensation dispatch
from the capital will cause another change
Of the RsraIds rudder, and, should mat
sers turn out well for the country-and
.he President prove as good men trust he
will, true to freedom-ths radicals may
lgain be afflicted with the Support and
Cooperation of that stable sheet.

The rrexiean question.

TParis Correspondence Cincinnati Gasette.
One day It Is asserted that the Cabinets
of Washington and Paris had agreed
upon the following plan: France to with
draw her troops from Mexico, and tho
United States to give Macmillan one
years time to consolidate his empire. In
case he will succeed, the empire to be re-
cognized by your country; in case he fails,
the United States to be empowered to do
as they please, without being interfered
with by Napoleon.
The next day we hear that at Cabinet
meeting Fould and Rauher advocated
openly the Immediate recall Of the French
troops from Mexico, but that the Emper-
or remarked the unfavorable reports from
Mexico were exaggerated, and that any
decision of this kind was premature and
unwarranted.
A third report states that the Emperor
had conversation with Mr.. Bigelow, pro-
posing the withdrawal of his army from
Mexico after three years, provided the
United States would recognize the Empire
of Maximilien. But Mr.. Bigelow dis
sented from the proposition, and declared
he could not make such a communication
to his Government, for it would arouse at
once storm in Congress, and prevent
Mr.. johnson and Mr.. Seward from con-
tinuing the good understanding existing
between the two countries. The Emperor,
therefore, will not urge his proposition for
the present. and negotiations shall not be
reopened till after, the adjournment of
Congress. ,-r.- -.-
