The President AND THE RADIcALs.-In the
account OF the interview between the Presi-
dent and Wilson of Iowa, as published IN
the Chicago Tribune, think there are some
mistakes. ! saw Mr.. Wilson the day after
the interview took place, and be stated that
the Presi lent treated him with cOurtt ~ and
that the only unpleasant thing connected
with it was the non-c0mmittalism Of the
President. Mr.. Wilson, as | understood
him. did not ask the President If be was
willing 10 agree not 20 use the patronage Of
his Office az inst the radicals. but be inculca-
ted the Importance of toleration-l very di!-
ferent thing. To ask the President 10 give a
pledge, might be imradent, to advise him
10 tolerate differences of opinion is to be
faithful with him lie must do that or he
Is lost as president and politician, for he
cannot buy up al Congress, if he was 50
disposed. But | have no idea that he is 50
disposed. He will give no pledge as what to
he will do but be tells men whom be be-
lieyes TO be his friends that he will 10 al
most anything but sacrifice his convictions
10 avert controversy with his own politi
cal friends in Congress. He said this to
Senator Foot, 10 jim Lane Of Kansas, ana
to many Others. The very latest news have
from the presidential mansion is 10 the ef-
feet that Senator Fessenden had an interview
with the President yesterday, and That he il
convinced that there will he no difficulty in
managing the matter of restoration without
any controversy with the President Tie
President has made the subj1ined remarks
recently to a prominent senator. lie said
- must look to the republicans for support
and not TO the opposition. | an familiar
with the history Of John Tyler and Willard
Fillmore, and do not intend to follow in their
footsteps. We will wait for the report Of
the JOINT committee, and Al it comes within
the bounds OF reason, will be satisfied.
These remarks ! am certain Mr.. johnson
has made within two days Now the only
question is-does the President talk what he
does not mean? Perhaps he does to some
people WIN are Of no account, but do not
believe be saws a thing TO such man as
Mr.. Fessenden or Mr.. Foot, that he d)es not
mean.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 5

The Secretary Of the Treasury stands firm
in favor of contraction Of the currency,
notwithstanding the combined influence
brought to bear against it by bankers, spec
ulators, and some classes OF manufacturers.
As this interest has great weight with mem
bers Of Congress, it is hard to say which
side will eventually triumph.
President Johnson is known to favor the
contraction views Of the Secretary and thus
adds great strength 10 Mr.. McCulloch's side
Of the question. Most men here believe with
the Secretary that the interests Of the coun
try and OF the masses Of the people require
prompt congressional action in favor Of his
policy.
The Com. Of Congress on Ways and Means
propose to wait till January jth for the re-
port Of the tax commission aud no longer, as
they have measures Of great Importance
coming before them.
