Der as follows 81 shall start for Fort
Scott as soon as the trains from Fort
Dodge arrive. Had it not been for the
misfortune of the Kansas regiment get
ting lost, and the heavy snow which
rendered their horses unfit for duty, l
would have closed this job before this
time. As it is, ! think the fight is
pretty well knocked ont of the Cheyen-
mes. Thirteen Cheyennes, two Sioux,
and one Arapahoe Chiefs were killed.
The Government makes a great mis-
take in giving these Indians any CON
siderable amount of food, under the
Supposition of necessity. The whole
country is literary covered with game.
There are now more buffalo than will
last the Indians 30 years. The turkeys

INTERVIEW WITH THE PEcsIDENr An
account Of a recent interview with Presi-
dent JOHNSON IS given by a correspondent
of the New i ork World. We have, in the
general, (says the Alexandria Gazette, quite
50 shrinking back from these reported
conversations, not to say decided di-bc-
lief in their correctness. One-balf Of them
that have been reported, have turned out to
be either false or exaggerated or misrcrrcsen-
ted What degree Of Gre dit ought, therefore,
TO lie given to this conversation, We DO rot
know but as the writer is circums.antial,
aud his statement appears to have been pre-
pared deliberately and with care, it is prob
able that the reported remarks of Mr.. John
son are nearly correct. That is our impress
sion. The substance, then, Of this CONVEX
sation, as given by the correspondent Of the
New York World, is, that the President
thinks the Radicals in Congress desperate;
that the leaders are capable Of employing
any means, constitutional or unconstitu-
tional to get rid Of the President, or to shear
away his power :. that the present meas
urcs Of these Radicals are revolutionary ;
that the new Reconstruction bill assumes
a right in Congress to Go away with the
President altogether, and make itself the
executor MS we'll as the legislator for the
government, &c. Then comes inquiries on
the part Of the correspondent as to the du
ties of the President in such a crisis, AMI
the reported answers Of the President TO the
questions to wit That the President is
Obliged by his oath to defend the con.titu-
ton that the Presidents Office under The
constitution is to be maintained that the
Supreme Court under the constitution is al
so to bo maintained. The statement con-
cludcs with the following:
"Thc President slil q revolution.
such as these hcall.ng spirits seem Ic-
tcrminfd to precipi.atc, may have, if 80 j.
suG rcd 20 go on, an effect more damaging

measures.

We publish below an extract from the
speech Of Hon D. ". VouHEEs, delivered
at indianapolis, on the S,h inst, giving his
views on the right of the negro, &c, which
must be taken as the views of the uuproju-
diced people in the North and arc in strik
ing contrast to the fsnaticsm Of Congress
and its consequent result, as exemplfed in
the mopgrel Conventions now in session in
the Southern States. From the acts of these
conventions the truth of Mr. Voorhees, views
must be impressed upon the people of our
entire country.
GIVE to the negro all his civil rights.
Give him security for life, libertr anL pro
perty and the laws and courts open and
free for his protection. Throw him on his
own resources, abolish Frecdmcn's Bureaus
and make him eat lis bread in the sweat of
his own face. Reserve the entire political
control of this Governments to cur own race.
Strike the negro from tl- basis.of reprcscn-
tation. Let him he no longer IL any shape
or way an element Of political power, and
then he will cease to be the sport Of despe-
rate factions. lie should neither vote nor
serve III Congress nor be represented there
by others. Two races cannot commingle
In the civil affairs Of a government. The
world bears unbruken testimony on this
point from the days OF Israel in Canaan tc
The wretched mongrel tribes Of Mexico
Let the negro be au object Of Christian phi.
lauthropy, and not a CO. pa:Sne in the Go
vernment. Then he will irk cut in peace
and happiness the subordinate destiny for
which he was created. - .S!uu,t9n I'm.
