FROM WASHINGTON,

The Senate continues in executive gession, and
since it has not been able to ntimidate the Presi-
dentnto acquiesccnce with its demands relative to
the appointment Of Radicals to vacant Offices, at
tention is directed to the affairs of Mexico, and
other countries. We. copy the proceedings of last
Saturday:
Ir the Senate. Mr.. Sumner oferedth following
resolution, proposing the good Offices of the United
States between the contending parties in Mexico !:
Whereas, the Republic of Mexico, though re-
lieved from the presence of q foreign enemy by
the final withdrawal of the French troops contiu-
ues to be convulsed by bloody civil war, in which
the Me1cans are ranged on opposite sides; and
whereas the United States are bound, by neighbor-
hood and republican sympathies, to do all in their
power for the welfare of the Mexican people, and
this obligation becomes more apparent from the
present condition of affairs, where each party is
embittered by protraced conflict; therefore,
Rssolued, That it is proper for the Government
of the United States, acting in the interest of hui
many and Christianity, to tender its good ofhces,
by way of mediation between the contendhng par
ties of the Republic of Mexico, in order to arrest
deplorable civil War anc " OEtdln l!ie
ment of Republican Governmenton afonndation
of peace and harmony.
Mr.. Henderson gave notice of his intention OF
Offering an amendment to the resolution
Resolved, by the Senate of the United States,
That in case Macmillan SHALL at an early day, see
fit to abdcate his authority in Mexico, and shall
signify desire to withdraw himself and his foreign
troops from the country, to the end that the civil
war may be terminated the United States would
be gratifed that the President would tender the
good offices of our Government, to secure at its
hands republican government in Mexico and for
the native followers of Macmillan such mild and
humane terms as characterizes the conduct of all
civilized warfare.
The resolution and substitute we're laid on the
table and ordered to be printed.
Mr.. Cole submitted the following, which lies
over.
Whereas, misunderstanding exists between
Prussia and France, springing out of the anne1a-
ton of the Grand Duchy of Le1emburg, and war
between these powers is imminent; therefore,
RESOLVED, That tho President of the United States
be requested to offer its friendly mediation to the
end that the efusion of blood may be avoided.

ANOTHER EX-GOVERNOR ON TIE S1TUATIos.-E1-
Governor McRae, of Mississippi, has written q
letter concerning the present condition Of public
affairs at the South. After rehearsing the politi
cal questions which led the South into contest of
force with the General Government, he says that
the victory of the latter leaves the Southern States
no rights but such as the conqueror may choose to
give them He thinks President Johnson has had
none but the best intentions in the policy be has
pursued but regrets that he did not call Congress
together in extra session rs soon as the war was
over, and agree with that body on some policy of
reconstruction, adapted 10 the necessities of the
case.
He advises the people Of Mississippi to submit
to-not accept-the terms of the military bill as
the best thing they can do, but would not advise
the freedmen to register or vote, unless it should
appear that bad men are likely to influence them
concert with the white citizens Of the South, and
says that, although apprehensions were entertain
ed before the war that the slaves might rise in
nsurrection, but that they proved faithful through
that struggle.
In conclusion, he says Ill the people have now
to do is TO conform to the legislation of Congress
The letter is plain, straightforward recognition
of the present political situation ut Lhe South and
we have no doubt but that its counsels and similar
advice from other Southern leading men, will gen.
erally be followed by the people Of oil classes
