Fred. Douglass.

Fred. Douglass.
This stnguished orator lectured for
the Library Association on Tuesday night,
to a very large audience, and, it should he
added, to a highly select one. There
were many from the country. His theme
was Selfmade Men," he, furnishing in
himself, the model. We should think he
is as much as three-fourths white. That
he is good orator most of us were preyi-
ously advised, but we confess to disap-
pointment in hearing and seeing him
His voice is musical, and it's use is in the
best style of stage reading his pronunca.
ton is very fine; his gestures easy and
impressive. There is a pith in his illus
trations and logic in his abstract reason
ing that is extremely entertaining. Our
readers can guess from the text the general
drift of his discourse. His argument was
that uork was more successful than prayer,
and that to be anybody in the world we
must use cxertion. In claiming an equal
ity of races, insisting upon the use Of the
ballot by "colored - men, we do not
agree with him. In the face of the fact
that years of effort have developed so few
specimens Of ability in the Africans, and
the farther fact that his own mental
powers result from an awfully large
proportion of white blood, we thought his
own appearance on the stand was Hring
argument against his reasoning. An oc-
casional fling at the Democrat party we
thought was little out Of taste, but they
were made so dryiy and wittily chat we
don't remember. There was any amount
of applause. Mr.. Douglass is about Co
perhaps not over So. On the stage he
looks we'll: to persons at distance of GO
or 70 feet his color is scarcely distinguish
able from that of many dark favored white
men. We do not remember ever to have
listened to lecture with more interest or
general qualification.

President?
The PRESIDENT don't knew, indeed,
nor DO care. 1t would make very little
difference to me.
The correspondent here asked what the
President would do in the event of the
passage of Mr.. Edmunds's bill Of sus-
pension, to which the President answered
substantially as follows;
Sir, would not obey the law if they at
tempted to suspend me. The law is clear
y unconstitutional. There is point against
it which you gentlemen of the press seem
to have altogether overlooked The bill
OF Senator Edmunds to suspend during
trial would undoubtedly bean er post .facto
law SO far as my case would be concerned.
Such law is declared unconstitutional by
the very language of the CONSTITUTION it.
self. My offence, we will suppose, is the re-
moval OF Mr.. Stanton; that is an accom-
plishcd fact. Any law prescribing a pen
atty for that act would be &C post facto,
and therefore unconstitutional How.
therefore, can Congress legally pass bill
Of such q character?
The correspondent remarked that certain
Radicals might argue that persistence in
keeping Mr.. Stanton out Of Office after the
Senate declared bis removal contrary to
law, and after the passage OF Mr.. Edmunds'
suspension bill, would be bringing the
question out Of the operation Of an e1 post
f1cto law.
The President replied that that could
NOT alter the case, - the offence charged
would still be the removal of Mr. Stanton,
an cot performed before the passage of the
proposed law. In reply 10 an inquiry as

Thomas since the interview of the latter
with Mr.. Stanton, the President said yes.
and proceeded TO state what. according to
his informstiop, had occurred 81 that inter-

WAsHNGToN. August PA dis
patch from Gen. Sherman was receiv-
ed at the War Department to-day,
dated Omaha, the 21st inst, stating
that he had received further informa-
tian from Gen. Sheridan, who report
ed from Fort Harker that he was in
hot pursuit of the Indians who had
committed the murders at Solomon's
and Saline. Gen. Sherman says that
\ he has now ordered Gen. Sheridan to
drive the savages south of the Kansas
line, and in pursuing, to kill If neces-
sary Gen. Sherman says this amounts
to war, but / hope only on small
scale. lie further says the Sioux at
the North remain quiet.
If the President does not approve
my action, notify me promptly, but l

Indians impossible.
This dispatch was communicated

ports that he has received no official

cent should not suffer for the guilty,
but that General Sheridan has the
right to carry out to the letter his or
der, so far as the guilty Indians are
concerned, and adds that those en-
gagged in the. murders should be pun

bill to pay the members of the Iegis-
lature In this State their bills In such
rates as they may be worth in green
backs, passed the Senate to-day. The
bill was read once in the House.
The Radicals held a caucus here to-
night, and nominated Circuit Judges.
CoLUMBn, s. c., August 24.-The
Repubticaa denies the recent report
that the Legislature proposes to re-
pudiate a class or State bonds, and
seize the assets of the State Banks,
which are pleaged to pay them. Only
the profits of the banks are pleag-
ed to pay the bonds, and the bank
has no profits. aud the bonds are
secure with or without the law. The
law, if possible. strengthens them.
The explanation of the matter is that
the Legislature of 1865 appropriated
the assets of the Bank to foreign
bondholde-s, depriying the bill hold
ers Of their prior claim. The present
bill reverses that action. and protects
the bill-holders as creditors of the
