cations Of their own voters without regard to
color; and thus the number Of Representa-
tiyes to which they would be entitled in Con.
gress would depend upon the number upon
which they conferred the right of suffrage.l
The President, in this connection expressed
the opinion that the agitation of the negro
franchise question in the District Of Columbia
at this time was the the mere entering wedge
to the agitation of the question throughout
the States, and was i'll timed, uncalled for, and
calculated to do great harm. He beievedthat
il would engender enmity and strife between
the two races, and lead to war between
them, which would result in great injury to
both, and the certain exterminatioK of the
negro poprlation. Precedence, he thought,
should be given TO more important and urgent
matters, legislation upon which was essential
for the restoration of the Union, the peace of
the country, and the prosperity Of the people.

HIS VIEWS ON CONSTITUTIONAL AMEND.
MENTS.
Alss, On Nsgrs suR+axe Agitation.

WASHINGTON, Jan. %.
THE PRESIDENT on CONSTITUTIONAL AMEND
AENTs.
The following is the substance of conyer-
sation which took place to-day between the
President and q distinguished Senator: The
President said that he doubted the propriety,
ct this time, Of making any further amend.
ments to the Constitution. One great amend
ment had already been made, by which
slavery had been forever abolished within the
limits Of the United States, and a national
guarantee thus given that that institution
should never again exist in the land. Prop
ositions to amend the Consultation were be-
coming as numerous as preambles and reso-
lutions at town meetings called to consider
the most ordinary questions connected with
the administration of local affairs. All this,
in his opinion, had q tendency to diminish the
dignity and prestige attached to the Constitu.
ton of the country, and to lessen the respect
and confidence OF the people in their great
charter of freedom. If, however, amend
ments are to be made to the Constitution,
changing the basis of representation and
taxation, and he did not deem them at oil
necessary at the present time,-he knew Of
none better than . simple proposition en-
braced in Q few lines, making in each State
WV nooAuOs NA 4uOhitCu VUtcFB the OASIS OF
representation, and the value Of property the
basis of direct taxation. Such q proposition
could be embraced in the following terms |:
Representatives shall be apportionsd among
the several States which may be included
within this Union, according to the number
of qualified voters in each Stata. Direct
taxes shall be apportioned among the several
States which may be included within sthis
Union according to the value of all taxable
property in each State An amendment OF
this kind would, in his opinion, place the
basis of representation and taxation upon
correct principles. The qualified voters we're
for the most part men who were subject to
draft and enlistment when necessary to repel
invasion, suppress rebellion, and quell do.
mestic violence and insurrection. They risk
their lives, shed their blood, and spend their
al to uphold the Covers meat, and give pro-
lection, security and value to property. It
seemed but just that property should COM
pensate for the benefits thus conferred, by
defnyisg the sxpeaDes incidsut to it, PROSE-
ton and enjoyment. Such an amendment,

Antietam Cemetery,

ANNAPOLIS, Md, Jan. 81.
The Legislature of Maryland to-day appro
priated $1,000, making in all $4,000 appro-
priated, to complete the work of enclosing,
grading and ornamenting the Antietam Gem
etery, which will be ready early in the spring
to receive the bodies of the heroes who fell
in that memorable battle. Their remains, to
the number of 5000, are now buried in the
mountains, roadsides and fields in that re-
gion.
Maryland has now Gone her part, and the
commissioners look for the promised action of
the Legislatures Of the loyal States to enable
them to properly inter the bodies of soldiers
of those States who fell there.
