ESPECIAL DISPATCHES TO EVENING TELEGRAPH
WASHINGTON, October l6
The President and the Constitutional
Amendment,

lsPECIAL DISPATCHES TO EVENING TELEGRAPH.
WASHINGTON, October l6.
The President and the Constitutional
Amendment.
The rumor that the President had written to
Southern Governors, advising them to convene
their Legislatures, and recommend the adoption
OF the Constitutional amendment, is undoubtedly
incorrect, as no positive indications have yet
been exhibited tending to show that the Presi-
dent Will swerve from his purpose not to be
party to the granting of universal negro suffrage
in any shape. IL may be, however, that the
result of the New York elections, ii unfavoTabe
to the conservatives, may tend to ameliorate his
views, and compromise between himself aud
Coneress be effected at the next session. If he
remains inheXible, the radicals Will assuredly
make an effort to impeach him; at least that Is
the sentiment OF The radical leaders at this time.
The Forthcoming Message.
Tue timber of the Presidents message is al
ready being prepared, and some Of it's proper
tlons shaped. Tue superstructure will not,
however, be completed until the November
elections shall have decisVely expressed the tone
OF the people OF New York and other States.
Open Again.
The erailroad and river communication between
Washington and Richmond, by way OF Acquia
creek, which was interrupted by the late rains,
has been resumed.
A RebeIIious Circular of the Baltimore
.'COnservatIves."
BALTIMORE October l6.-Petitious are being
circulated here, and extensively signed by those
opposed to the present city government, calling
on Governor Swami to remove the Police Com.
missioners on a charge of official misconduct
The matter excites much comment. The law
gives the Governor power TO remove during the
recess of the Legislature, and also to fill
vacancies.
The friends of the Commissioners maintain
however, that this cannot be done except by
trial and conviction before the Superior Court
that the Governor can at once set the entire
Board aside, and appoint a new one. AS the
Police Board have the appointment of Judges
for the approaching State election, the i'm port
ance Of the question may be readily understood

coming from Andrew johnson, is a yerY mild
affair. The reader Of his messages aud
speeches since the eed of February last,
Elu look in vain in this Message to find
any Of that viru1ent abuse of
Congress for which the President has become
notorious. The message is addressed to his

Representatives Of the United States in
Congress assembled, and not body Claiming
tr tc Cong7css-but in fact a mere part Of

dessed Thad. Stevens as his fellow citizen

1n,ntls ago he told the people Of Pittsburgh
tlat he could not see wherein would be the
wrong Of his placing guard at the doors Of

Congress embracing his rebel friends. but Tc-
pcatcd lis pitcous appeal to the ''Rump''
to open their doors to bis rebel friends.
II las been but few months ago since he
told the people that he had estimated the
cost, and Eas satisfied thst he could pro-
claim himself Dictator with the utmost ease.
