WASHINGTON, February IA
The President Desires Amendments 20 the
Frceduen's Bureau Bill--No Assent 90 Fore
ing Negro Suffrage.
The President Is, as | learn to day from an
authentic source, decidedly in favor of the
Frecd-len's Bureau Institution, and only de-
which will be readily adopted by the House,
and probably by the Senate.
The President and Congress travel on the
same road so far, and have not come TO the
fork whence they may part. The President
will not assent TO any law for forcing negro
suffrage upon the States, nor even upon this
District. There may be split on that ques-
ton. but il is doubtful whether II VIII ever
be made If Congress have the two thiras
power on the subject, they VIII not care LOT the
Presidents cooperation, ana VIII oaly use
him very useful and important power Tor
hestowing offices, all of which they are assured
OF in any event.
Some Of the members, and probably mao
rity, unite in consuming the President Tor what
he has already done towards restoration OF the
rebel States, and may find III 1t ground enough
for quarrel, and even impeachment. But
some members have declared already that the
Presidents conduct hitherto would no over
looked, though not justified, if no would give
full swing 10 Congress hereafter.
But in n leading speech in the Senate vest
day il was argued that the power OF the Pre-
sideut in regard 10 the reconstruction of the
rebel States was ended, and the subject rested
with Congress which must act regardless of
the President. This brings the whole matter
TO the two thirds power. If Congress have
that, ms is possible, the President must ''get
out If their tcdy,' not they out of his.

There was a sale of ten thousand virginif

This, tho first public sale there OF coupons lof
some time, shows q decline Of some 80 per
share from the highest point this years Fir-
ginia skies, registered, are quoted here NJ 800
s4l. As they bear interest only since the ~
of January, and the coHpons carry fre years
interest with them, 1t would seem that The
registered are better than the coupons. We
may fear now that the Legislature will autho-
rize the conversionl When the privilege was
originally asked, the probability was that some
advantage would enure 70 the holders of regis
tered stock, and 1t was promptly rejected. The
case being altered, were the application re-
newed, n different fate might attend 1t.
tits understood that there Is .nosa great
deal OF Virginia stock In New York. The
greater part Of it has gone abroad, mostly to

The Legislature is still engaged upon the
stay law, the usury law, and law prescrib'
ing the terms Of settlement of debts con-
tracted during the war. Bills In their early
stages in the Senate lay down the principle,
that except where 1t is specified in the con
tract what payment is to be made in, settle.
ment shall be made according to the value OF
Confederate money at the time of the con-
tract i. g., presuming that the debt was con-
tracted to be paid in Confederate money, pay
ment is to be made in specie or its equivalent
at the relative value of gold to Confederate
money when the debt was contracted. Some
law upon this basis will no doubt ultimately
pass.
