BURIED GRIEFS.

Oh let them rest, the buried griefs,
Why should we drag them to the day?
They live their hour of storm and shower;
They lived and died and passed away.
Oh let them rest--their graves are green;
New life shall rise above the mould;
The dews shall weep, the blossoms peep,
The flowers of sympathy unfold.
So on the solitary moor,
The soldiers graves are bright with flowers
The wild thyme blooms and sweet perfumes
Attract the roamers of the bowers.
There STAYS the bee to gather sweets,
And give this booming trumpet rest;
There waves the heath its purple wreath,
And there the lnuet builds her nest.
On let them rest-the buried griefs,
The place is holy where they lie;
So LIES cold waste their graves placed
The flowers look upward to the sky.

M. pr..;deu, and a Negro delegation.

~
W,sHIvdToS, Feb. IA delegation of colored
man headed bv Fred Douglas and r. II. Downing
called on the President today, for the purpose OF
expressing their ideas on the questions now being
considered affecting their interests, and also to learn
he views entertainedSy the President in the same
connection. He was addressed by both Downing
and Douglas, who strongly urged that tho colored
race should be endowed with all the rights. prlv'-
leres and immunitics of citizens of the United StateS'
and desired that the ii hit of suffrage be gwen 10
them not only in this District, but all over the land
The President responded, saying il his past
course was not evidence OF his good will to the col
orcd race ha could say no more. Ho had SAID ana
rcpcatcd here, that if they could find no other Moses
to lead them to the Land of Promise and Liberty
he would be that Moses, but he was not willing To
adopt Il policy which would result in danger TO the
colored men, aud possibly lead to II war OF races
Nothing but evil would result from forcing upon the
people of this District, or any other section, a prIn'
ciple in direct opposition to the expressed will OF the
majority.
At the conclusion Of his remarks, which were oil
considerable length, Douglas said the question
would have to be settled by the people, to which the
President expressed his assent, saying he had great
faith in the people.

Foreign Advices.

NEW York, February Napoleon in his recent
speech said that France, who fOrgets no noble page
of her history, oilers up sincere wishes for the pros
perity of the great American Republic, and for the
maintenance of amicable relations which will soon
have had u century's duration. The emotion pro-
duced in the United States by the presence OF our
troops on Mexican soil will be paciiied by the frank
ness of our declarations. The American people will
comprehend that ourexpedi'ion, to which we invite
them, WAS not opposed to their %interests. Two ma
tons equally jealous of their independence ought
to avoid every step which might affect their dignity
and their honor.
The Paris correspondent of the Daily Meas says
it has transpired in court circles that Napoleon Is
greatly displeased with Macmillan on very many
grounds, especially on account of the bad reception
given to the French Counsellor of State sent to
Mexico to take the finances in hand, and it is inti-
mated that this il one reason for withdrawing the
French troops.
