THE PRESIDENT AND HIS CABINET
COUNCIL.
The riers Of Each upon the Report Of the
Reconstruction Committee.

1t is understood that at the Cabinet meet
ing yesterday the President invited an express
sion OF opinion from the heads of Depart
ments respecting the propositions repor-
ted on Monday last by the Congressional
Committee on Reconstruction. An interest
ing and animated discussion is said to have
ensued, in the course of which, If rumor be
true, Secretary Seward declared himself in
very decided and emphatic terms against the
plan of the committee, and in favor of the
immediate admission of loyal representatives
from the late rebellious States.
Secretary McCulloch was as positive as the
Secretary Of State in his opposition to the
plan recommended by the committee and
expressed himself strongly in favor of an i'm,
mediate consumation Of the Presidents resto-
ration policy by the admission into Congress:
of loyal men from the Sou .hern States.
Secretary Stanton was equally decided in
his opposition to the committees propositions
was for adhering to the policy which had
been agreed upon and consistently pursued
by the Administration, and was gratified
that the President had brought the subject to
the consideration OF the Cabinet.
Secretary Welles was unequivocally against
the committees scheme, and was earnesSin
his support of the Presidents policy, compre.
bending the instant admission into Congress
of loyal representatives, from the States lately
in rebellion.
Secreeiry HARLAN was rather reticent and
expressed no opinion.
Postmaster General Dcnnison was in favor
of carrying out the restoration policy of the
President but expressed some doubts as Il
the precise time at which loyal representa-.
tives from the Southern States should be ad-
mitted to seats in Congress.
Attorney General Speed was not present
at the meeting, being on a visit to his home
in Kentucky.
The President was earnest in his oppos-
ton to the report of the committee, and de-
clared himself against all conditions prece-
dent to the admission of loyal representatives
from the Southern States in tho shape OF
amendments to the Constitution or the pas
sage of laws. He insisted that under the
Constitution no State could be deprived of its
equal suffrage in the Senate, and that Sena-
tors and Representatives ought to be at once
admitted into the respective Houses, as pres
cribed by law and the Constitution. He was
for rigid adherance to the Constitution as
II is, and remarked that having sustained
ourselves under it during terrible rebellion,
he thought that the Government could be
restored without resort to amendments
He remarked in general terms that il the Or
ganic law is TO be changed at all, it should be
at a time when all the States and all the
people can participate in the alteration.

CIRCUMSTANCES ALTER CAsEs.-The bonn
bardment of Valparaiso seems to have arous-
ed the indignation Of many, in the North,
and some of the papers insist that the Presi-
dent shall utter strong protest against the
barbarity of Spain. 1t may be right and
proper to do so; but after running its eye
over the Valley of Virginia, the track of
Sherman through Georgia and South Caro-
lima and other spots made desolate by want
on barbarity, we know not how the govern
ment of the United States can, conscienti-
ously, make any such protest. Should the
President point to the ruins Of Valparaiso,
as evidence of Spanish cruelty, Spain can
point to the ashes Of Columbia, and say to
this government: Purge yourself of crime
before you presume to censure othersi

looks'like being thank full that an army of
more than million of men and a powerful
navy were not demolished by a handful of
hungry Southern soldiers. They feel that
they made narrow escape, and are, there

Memphis and Chattanooga ander the execu-
tive control'of commissioners, to be appoint

hope those Commissioners will have a good

expect nothing but the scorn and contempt
of an insulted and outraged people.

France. The radicals, who have derived their
power from, and grown rich upon, the late
war, seem not indisposed tn get up another

TIE New YORK Tribune says his plan of
reconstruction is shorter and simpler, and is
nothing more than universal amnesty and
impartial suffrage" The plan must appear
very simple, when we reflect that suffrage,
confined to the whites, led to revolution and
bloodshed. The man who thinks that the
ballot-box will be purified by opening it to
the brutal negro is simply fool and he
that does not think SO, and still advocates the
proposition, is simply knave.

MORE TRUTH THAN PoETRY.-The Peters.

population far more than they love the
blacks" 1t is not violent presumption,
that the secret service fund may procure the
commission of such acts for the purpose of
fnrtheling the diabolical purposes of the
leading fiends of the radical persuasion.

New YORK, APRIL 26th.-Private tele-
grams to the Paris Moniteur assert that pacific
arrangements have been made between Aus
tria and Prussia, the latter asserting to the
Austrian proposal for mutual disarmament
The Gazette, OF Bavaria, confirms this, as
serting that all danger of war in Germany
is removed.
The Paris Constitutional accepts the news
as substantially correct.
The Berlin Telegraph says the reports Of a
treaty of alliance between Prussia and Italy
are unlounded. The rumOr of the violation
of Austrian territory by the Italian volunteers
and the consequent engagement near Roviga,
had proved false. The situation Of Austria
and Italy remains unalterd.
The Florence Journsl reports that the Aus
TRAN Government had ordered all the land
and naval forces in Vienna to be placed on
war-footing by the LIST Of May, and an ex-
traordinary concentration of troops was to
10 take place in the province of Roviga.
II was asserted that the Emperor Napoleon
had declared to the Italian Cabinet that he
will in no way assist Italy, in case Of an at
tack from Austria.
The Vienna Cabinet Is said TO have issued
a circular, 10 Prussia and other European
Courts, informing that Austrian srma-
meuts are necessary by the proceedings of
the Italian government. Dispatches add that
Austria relying on the word Of the Prussian
King. considers any measure of defense
against Prussia unnecessary.
