The spirit of the Northern press in regard to the
recent interview between the President and the
negroes will be found interesting The New York
Express says:
It's long while since the coored people had so
much good advice given them by one who is I'M
doubtedly their friend; and if they are wise, they
will not be slow to accept it, in the same spirit in
well directed sentences, disabused their minds of
the fatal hallucnation that the recent war was un.
dertaken for the abolition of savery-and that
equally fatal haucination, that negro suffrage is
the panacea for the evils incident to their existing
condition in the social scale. These people were
given to understand, in short, that great deal had
been done for them, at immense cost by the Gov
eminent and the people-and that it became them,
under the circumstances not to be camorous for
more. That speech will do good 1t was emil
nently opportune. The President deserves, and
will receive for it the thanks of every lover of his
country, and of his race.
The radicals, of course, think differently. Ac.
cording to the Tribune:
"The news of the conversation which occurred
between the President and these colored citizens
was brought to the House by prominent members
of the delegation They gave an account of the
interview to number of congressman, who in
stantly gathered around them, and there was {
general feeling of disappointment and Sadness"
The Chicago Times says:
Another feature of this interview will be recog
Hized with satisfaction. 1t is that the Presden
retusedSab assent to the impudent demand o
Fred. Douglass to argue the question. He showed
great condescention in admitting these men to al
interview at q time when so pressed with tn
affairs OF governunsnt. He displayed equal con
descenslon when he took the time to patient
give these negroes his opinions, and he displaye
only proper dignity when he declined Fred
Douglass proposition to debate the matter MI
johnson very properly believes that the whit
house is not the proper place for wrGngle wit
plantation hands, boot-blacks, and tableewaiter
over the polics of the government, There
