orr REPRESENTATIVES, ABBoa,

The President has transmitted to Congress
mass of correspondence between the State
Department and our diplomatic representa-
tions abroad. the most interesting parts of
which are the letters in reply to Mr.. Stewards
insulting circular, asking them what they
had to say concerning the statements of the
American citizen at Paris the key-hole
spy, McCrackcn. Mr.. Motley's reply is al
ready made public, and is probably the best
of the lot. The others, however, have pc
culiar interest in the exhibition they make of
the characters of their different authors, and
the changes some Of their political platforms
have undergone since Abraham Lincoln went
out Of Office and Andrew johnson swung his
circle.
Thus, the sturdy granite-er Hale replies in
terms unmistakable using English which is
rarely excclled for strength lie says: 81
shall make short work in answering it,
"Thc whole statement, from beginning to
lend, is utterly false in every word and
line" This is conclusive in Mr.. IIale's be-
half, and SO the State Department told him.

With the rapid growth of our city and in
creasing population of our State, IL is evil
dent that the number of public schools must
he augmented in the same proportion
Should we fail in this our population would
be far more heavily taxed to support prose
cutions, jals and poor-houses. These
schools must have teachers. Their character
and qualifications will determine the moral
and educational standing of the schools and
hence of the rising generation We are glad
to see that our Legislature has legalized an
institution for the professional education
and training of teachers, and trust it will be
heartily sustained and literally patronized
by the people. Should it fail of receiving
this support, few would have the courage to
undertake such an enterprise again for a
long time to come. Those who regard the
happiness and prosperity of future genera
tons, and desire peace and order in society,
will aid this institution by every means
within their power

WASHINGTON, Feb. q


suppose you would like to know con-
corning the " situation. 1t is hard to de-
scribe. The President is evidently frighten-
ed by The impending impeachment The
good tailor Of Tennessee doubtless feels as
though his own shears, sharpened TO pre-
ternatural keenness, impended over his
head, yet those who see much Of him say
that he is still very bitter, though he pre-
tends to be holding out the olive branch TO
the Radical Congress He declares that if
impeached he will not submit to suspension
pending his trial but will fight; though if
moi suspended and he shall yet be convicted,
he will submit He relies on the army to
stand by him in resisting IA suspension.
OF the history of the great negotiations
which awakened belief in the minds of
some good people that the millennium was
surely come, and the EZRA of good feeling"
dawncd at lasi, can furnish but little new
information. Wentworth is busily engaged
"smoking out the compromises The
feeling on the part Of many members toward
the President is not friendly by any means,
and large majority of the Republicans ut
terly distrust anything bearing the White
House sign manual. They say the President
will prove false again as he has in the past,
and that his only object in trying to patch up
compromise is to gain time and stave off
the Impeachment.
A friend who ought to know tells me that
the Sherman bill is acceptable to the Presi-
dent, and will receive his signature. The
idea that he desired il TO pass has been no
help to its progress through the House.
The judiciary Committee is receiving evil
dence concerning Impeachment and with
such strict secresy that they hardly contidc
their subpnnas for witnesses to the Sergeant
alarms, hut get them to testify in many cases
without process 1t is privately rumored
however that the evidence is very strong
against the President and will 60 very far to-
ward convincing the public mind that he
ought to be removed. The 10th Congress
contains more elements of radicalism than
the present one, and If We may judge by
the feeling of tho moral atmosphere, it looks
as though beyond all peradventure an i'm
parchment will be found and prosecuted Wig
orously. That the President is seriously
alarmed he gives ample indication. He now
makes no removals without good cause and
in many instances when he has sent in new
nominations in place Projected ones they are
Republicans instead of Democrats or Con-
servatives.
II is very evident that Congress will
triumph. The victory may not be such as
some of our leading Radicals would like to
have, but it will be full and complete
Many persons affect to believe that the
next Congress will have short session. My
opinion is precisely the opposite.

so U7ITIgRN AVAILABILITY.

In his very able speech in the House, sup
porting Stevens Military Bill, Judge Kelley
of Pennsylvania gave some graphic llustra-
tions Of the lawless condition of much Of the
Southern territory. Mr.. LeBlond of Ohio
having asserted that we should not expect +
"That perfect peace would prevail through
out those States rs soon as the war ended
1t was in the nature of things there would be
lawless conduct on the part of many citi-
Gems"
And that
"The civil authorities there have been
using the power they have to keep down this
lawlcssness and to punish men for the COM
mission of offenses."
Judge Kelley cited large amount of evil
dcncc to show that the civil authorities eth
er had not the will Or were not able to adj
minister the laws, or TO punish criminals, and
that therefore they needed the assistance of
the Government. Among the instances que
ted were the following, which are not re-
markablc as being worse in their character
than many of which we have already been
informed, but derive Importance from the
fact that they came to Judge Kelley through
channels of information positively trustwor-
thy. They may therefore be relied on as ac-
curatc indications of the state of Southern
society. The Judge said -:

known to gentlemen from Massachusetts,

editor of the Massachusetts Plowman re

THE PRESIDENT VIEWED BY
ENGLISH EYES

The London Spectator sensibly discusses
the folly of President johnson in choosing
the London Times as the medium for com
municating his ideas to the world. A paper
whose course was SO hostile to the cause of
American unity Is not likely to secure IA
vorable hearing with the loyal people who
preserved the nation in its integrity
The same article keenly criticises the
Presidents curious idea that his adhercnts
constitute a majority of the American peo-
pie that in considering the people of the
South, only the whites are to be counted,
and that these, with the Democratic party
are more than half of the countrys popula-
ton. II further argues In favor of Impeach-
ment, and says.-
What the President praclically.eifccts in
this-he inspires In the South with hope
that the policy of the Republican party
will be reversed and in the meantime
stimulates all those mischevous practical
tendencies which would begin to multiply in
everydirecti0n the moment it should he rever-
sed. Now, this is the true political crime of the
President-t0r which, and in all probability
not for any fancied political corruption he
ought to he removed When the South first
submitted, they 40; only accepted AT once
the constitutional amendment abollshlng
slavery but were willing and anxious to
recognize the generosity which insisted only
on political changes of this kind striking at
the root of the rebellion.
Had Mr.. Lincoln lived, the South would
have accepted the civil rights act, and the
Freedmen's Bureau act, and the temporary
military government also. The spirit Of
these acts would have been fairly incorpora-
ted in Southern law and justice, without any
murmuring worth speaking of. But Mr..
johnson soon showed them that from him
they might expect much better things-a to-
tai overthrow of the policy OF the war and
the power TO reconstruct Southern society
on the old anti Yankee and anti-negro ideas.
This is, indeed, what in one form or another
he has eagerly defended their right to do, and
sometimes, In effect, even counsclcd them
to do. He has positively advised them to
refuse the last constitutional amendment pro-
posed by Congress, and has been the open
apologist of disloyal and murderous out
bursts, like that at New Orleans, against the
spirit of equality and freedom. Ifths is not
grave political crime we do not know what
