WASHINGTON, Fob. 10, 1866.
The following is the substance OF a
conversation which took place yester-
day morning between the President and
a distinguished Representative, con-
corning the Presidents speech of We'd
nesday to the negro delegation which
called on him;-
The Representative said some per-
sons felt, and others would probably,
for personal or faCtious ends, endeavor
to show that the President was taking
sides against the co1ored people, or
was at least less favorably disposed
toward them than he had been.
The President responded that no one
could fairly aud trnthfllly do that. He
1rdS HolP tFkdt he had dltcdyS been, the
ffieaR Of EAe poor and the Iotety. He
had never broken faith with ANYBODY.
aud II his past course and his former
language were not sufficient Euaran-
ed people and would endeavor to secure
to them fair chance, nothing he could
say or do now would give any such
guarantee, He thought, however, that
L was best to speak plainly, and he
did not believe that the EFFORT

would result in great injury TO the pros

portunity 70 state his views. BE would
repeat that he was, If he knew his own
heart, the eolored mans friend. BE
had great faith in the people, and
would endeavor 70 carry out their will.
The Representative then said that
some persons might take or profess to
take the Presidents speech rs an indi-

party friends, and that some others

SUCCESS VERSUS SKILL.-It is told Of
the late sir Ashley Cooper, that on visit
ing Paris he was asked by the surgeon
en- chef of the empire how many times
he had performed a certain wonderful
feat OF surgery. He replied that he
mad performed the operation thirteen
times. "Ah, but monsieur, have
done him one hundred and sixty time.
How many time did you save his life 7"
continued the curious Erenchman, after
he had looked into the blank amaze
ment OF Sir Astley's face. p said the
Englfshman, saved eleven out of the
thiFteen. How many did. you save ont
OF one hundred and sixty ?" tsAh,
monsieur, 1 lose dem all, but de opera
ton was very brilliante."

As SHOWING that the President is
committed to the principle OF keeping
rebels out of the halls of legislation,
the New York Post publishes the fol-
lowing extract from his speech in the
expulsion case of Bright, delivered in
the u. s. Senate in 1861
"Mr. President, suppose Aaron Burr
had been Senator, and after his ac-
quittal he had come back here to take
his seat in the Senate, what would have
been done? According to the doctrine
avowed in this debate, that we must sit
as a court and subject the individual to
all the rules and technicaIities Of crimi-
nal proceedings, could he have been ex-
pelled2 And yet is there a Senator here
who would have voted to allow Aaron
Burr TO take a seat in the Senate after
his acquittal by a court and jury. No;
there is not q Senator here who would
have done It. Aaron Burr was tried in
court, and he was found not guilty; he
1rdS turned loose; but wns the public
judgment Of this nation less satisfied of
his guilt than ifhe had not been acquit-
ted? What is the nations judgment,
settled and fixed That Aaron Burr
was guilty of treason, Notwithstanding
he was acquitted by court and jury"

NT. Ohio. are man ufacturine the best. cheap.
est and spee1iest Drilling Machines in the
world for boring Oil, Salt or Artesian wells.
They have been thoroughly and successfully
tested for eight years, in boring through the
hardest hint and lime rocks. By the peculiar
construction Of the tools. no reamer Is re-
quifed, and II kept in order cannot stick fast,
and therefore require noiars. The arrange
