wAsHisarox, February IL, 1855. \.
GA the same afternoon that the President
was addressing the Virginia Delegation In
words OF wisdom. patriotism, and kindness, ~
one end 81 TIE avenue, a radical member OF
tho Home OF Representatives from Pennsyl-
ranin. Mt the other end, was declaiming from
his seat on the floor of that body, in the most
vehement style, words In the most Airect
oupcsttion TO the utterances which were being
made at the Executive Mansion. This mem
Der, Williams, had had his speech in readi-
ness fcr some time, and when first written,
was even more denuhciatory than when de-
livered II, Of course, was without any
knowledge Of what position the Presideat
would take upon any question other than
that OF restoring the Union, and must nave
been Ievelled at him solely because the desire
of the Executive is to secure complete resto-
ration. This member was allowed an ad.
ditional hour yesterday for the purpose OF
continuing his severe structures, and as
proof that the extreme men are unit on the
policy Of assaiiing the President, 1t was noted
Yesterday how the congenial spirits gathered
around their vehement coVre,s, and how
heartily they congratulated him at the close
of his bitter sarcasm and censure.
!. The President has not lost confidence In the
people, and the evidences daily increase that
they, throughout the length and breadth OF
this great country, excepting New England,
where radicalism Is rampant,) Will raiiy 70
his support and TO that Of the Union ana the
Constitution, with as great an earnestness anu
alacrity as, in the beginning Of the war, they
answered to the per ,dical calls for more
troops"
As the President, after reading the recent
letter from Captain Semmes, expressed him.
self as opposed to any further delay in the
proceedings for his trial, 1t Is thought certain
that the board ,ohich he has ordered to be organ
lied will be designated during the present
week. The procrastination has been owing TO
the difficulty experienced in the selection of
officers to compose the court, part OF which
will be from the army, and part from the
navy The defence which will be set up, IL IS
considered win be one Of the most vigorous,
as well as one Of the soundest, ever argued be-
fore military tribunal.
The negro suffrage men are assuring the
aspirants for that political privilege in this
District that, Notwithstanding the veto OF the
President, which the negroes are observan' /
enough to know soiH occur, they will not be
debarred from participating in the municipal
elections here next June. Men now holding
official positions of trust in the District under
The immediate gift Of the Administration hold
these same views. The Radicals are certainly
very strong in Congress, but it is not thought
they can muster up strength for passing any
measure over the Executive veto. The extre-
mists thank God y that they have a Con-
gress, and the people have reason to "thank
God, that they have President. TIMoS.
