CONCLUSIONS OF A SHREwD OBSERVER.
The Washington correspondent ofthe
Cincinnati Commercial who writes well
and knowingly, in a letter from the
Capitol gives personal sketches of some
of President Johnson's Cabinet, and,
draws certain conclusions from surround.

MIR. SEWARD. @
Mr. Seward is equally free in the ex.
preston Of his opinion onathe present
status of affairs. He is essentially COR.
servative. and with The President in his
policy. He believes. that the Southern
people are acting in good faith in this
work Of reconstruction; that they are,
from their past history and life, acting
as we must expect they would act that,
with their feelings and knowledge, we
could anticipated nothing else. They
cannot change in a day. Their princl.
Piles, feelings and beliefs are the growth
of years. He believes thatall will come
out right; that tho Union party cannot
be destroyed, as there will always be in
this country majority of its people in
favor of the unity and integrity of this
republic, and who will find means to
make known their wishes for the main.
tenancc Of the Constitution and the prin
ciples upon which this government is
based. The name Of this party is very
immaterial. He says if yon look at the
class Of men who have been elected as
members Of Congress and Senators from
the reconstructed States, you will find
that they are not secessio"ists. and never
were; that they fought this heresy in
tho beginning, and only went with their
States when they were forced TO 20,
citing the examples of Stephens and
many other leading men who have been
elected from the different States ofthe
South, who's last votes in their Legisla

are separated My own conclusion is
that Congress, under the lead OF these
old parliamentary Radicals, has gone a
little too far and too fast, and got away
from both the President and the people !;
that the President has stood still since
the day ofhis election, and has failed to
keep pace with the progress of the peo
pie.
The President will not go over to the
"Cops," nor appoint any of them to
office, but will not shake them OF, if,
for their own party or selfish motives
they. see proper to support his policy
and measures. have no doubt he
would be glad to form, out of the moder.
ate and conservative Union men and
the better part Of the Democrats, new
and third party. But the testimony Of
men of the Union party upon whom he
has called for an opinion as to the feast
blity Of this plan has been so universal
and emphatic that they would not be
found in company of these Copperhcads
for any consideration, even in decent
place and for decent object, that the
possible fulflmcnt of this dream If :.
ever really existed-has passed away.
The President will use all he power
lie has, in the way Of patronage ard in
tiuence, to bring men to his support, and
will cnt of those who are against him.
For this he cannot be blamed. A new
deal will probably be made in the Cabi

and Attorney General Speed, are nolo.

small broken lava, which appear to a
stranger as wholly barren and sterile,
and yet are very productive in raising
sweet potatoes and some Few other es.
cnlents. Last year several acres of this
waste region were planted with cotton,
and the experiment resulted in tho pro.
duction of crop Of the "fnest and

growers of the fabric state that it re.
qnired no cultivation after the seeds
were planted. Upon opening, the bolls
fall upon the clean Java stones, thereby
being kept free from the dust and dirt.
The people are very sangnine over this

from it. A cargo Of it has already
