MIDNIGHT REPORT.
Colorado Territory.

r NEW YoRK, Jan. 26.
Gov. Cummings. Of Colorado Territory.
telegraphs Senator Sumner about the petition
of colored citizens, calling his attention to the
fact that the Legislature of Colorado at its
first session. in 1861, passed law establish
ing the qualification of voters, making no dis
tinction on account of color or race but the
session of 1864 passed law depriving negroes
and mulattoes OF the right. APO
Gov. Cummings SAYS: Il invoke your
earnest attention to the subject, and hope for
honor of the Territory that you will promptly
take action to erase this odious record from
the statute book
- deem it proper to say also that the
Legislative Assembly owes it to the enligh,-
ened sentiment of the country to take into
consideration the condition Of the colored
people, with regard to public schools Under
the law of s6l, offering them equal political
privileges with others, they came here in con
siderable numbers. TO an equal if not greater
extent than any other class of immigrants
Evidences of their industry, frugal,y aud
thrift are seen IN various parts of the territory
some of the finest property belonging to
them. They are subject to the tax laid FOR
the support Of public schools, while their
children are not permitted attendance there
in consequence of their exclusion from public
and private society. Some of these people
have been compelled to send their children
to the Eastern States TO be educated, while
paying taxes for education in this Territory 4:
but all are not able to incur this expense, and
as necessary consequence many OF their
children must grow up in ignorance. / sub
nit, without argument, the fact that colored
people in Denver and various parts of the
Territory are taxed to pay for educating white
children. while their own are excluded from
the public schools and your action will de-
termiue how long tins humiliating and unjust
law will be permitted to 60 before the world.
Justice to the living and gratitude To those
who died that the nation might live. forbid
that the state of things against which these
petitioners protest should no longer prevail
II only perform my duty in calling your
attention to these subjects. For the rest the
responsibility is with you.

Napoleon and the Mexican Question.

NEW oRk, Jan. 70
A Washington special to the News says a
private letter from gentleman in Paris, Jan
nary 4th, has been received here, describing
a recent interview between Napoleon and
the American Minister.
Napoleon spoke frankly on the Mexican
question, and expressed determination to
preserve friendly relations with the | uied
States and his wish to withdraw the French
troops as soon as he could be assured our
policy of neutrality towards Mexico be con-
tinued He intimated very plainly, however,
that he would never abandon MaxinilIan as
long as there was any danger that the United
States would pull down what he had built up
at so much expense All he would ask, was
that we would not interfere with the present
government of Mexico, the permanence and
stability of which, if left to itself, he was con-
vinced, could be secured
The correspondent adds: have reason to
believe the dispatches from Mr.. Bigelow, con-
tanning the full report of tins interview was
received by the State Department by the last
steamer.
