The PRESIDENT. The Washington cor
respondent of the Baltimore Gazette says ::
| Mr.. johnson regards the impeachment
of himself simply as a war upon the Consti-
tuition
He feels that the Jacobins are assailing
| Constitutional liberty-not Andrew john
son. In a Cabinet meeting held to-day
the situation was informally but freely dis
cussed-there being no business requiring
attention-an the President joined heart
iiy in the conversation He said his con-
necton with the trial was but the result of
his having possession Of the power the
dominant party was aiming to usurp, aud
the present movement was the last desper-
ate act by which to seize that pow er aud
subvert the Government
The trial, he said, was one in which he
had deep interest in common with the
whole American people This interest he
had and felt-nothing less, nothing more
In his personal connection with the trial.
he is understood to regard himself simply
as the representative Of the liberties of the
people, and in this representative capacity
will make his defence. Such are known
to be President Johnson's views of his I'M
parchment and trial, and he claims to have
no interest in the proceedings beyond that
of any other patriotic citizen who is deter
mined to do his duty i'll defence of the Con-
stitutlon and the liberties of the country.

HE DRESSES OF AN AFRICAN KING AND
His Court In a recent lecture delivered
in Philadelphia MONSIEUR DU CuAILLU
thus describes the dresses Of negro King
and his Court with whom he met in his
travels in Africa:
king Diopo was dressed in swallow
tailed coat, about the style our GRANDPA
thers wore, and that he must have procur-
ed from some Traveller, aud nothing else
besides. His Prime M;Sister had on a
white shirt. one sleeve lost, and which
could not have been washed for two years,
and nothing else. The second bead man
had a necktie on. and nothing else The
third head man had a hat on, and nothin 9
else. Another one Of the suit wore pair
Of shoes, and nothing else After the
King and his Ministers came bis wives.
His chief wife carried an umbrella, ard
wore nothing else besides"
The negroes III this country. iEseparated
from the whites and allowed to form and
manage their own government, would soon
fall back into the condition in which their
cousins at nome row are. For it is not
from the want OF opportunities forimprove-
nent that the negroes of Africa are still
savages, but because they are an inferior
race, and actually incapable of maintain
ing snch institutions as the whites estab-
fish and support.
Some negro made a speech in the Vir-
ginia Convention few Gays ago in which
he claimed that the Carthaginians Of old
were negroes We have heard of one
greater fool-namely, the man who de-
clared positively that the great Roman
general sclpIo was a negro, and cited as
proof the fact that he was always called
SoIPIo AFRICANS .-Di&putch.

SENSIBLE DECISION. "A correspondent,
writing to the Gazette, says that in a coun-
ty in Virginia, not far from Alexandria.
there is very crotchety family. Recent
ly. two Of them, brother and sister. the
latter in high boomer costume, were
walking along the streets Of small coun-
try town, when the costume ELECTED rude
remarks from some idlers, which were
overheard by the brother, who appealed
to the Freedmen's Bureau officer, station
ed in the town, to "redress the wrongs of
his sister" The officer was at first sore
ly bothered, but having delberated awhile,
wrote to the valiant brother that he thought
the best thing that could be done in the
premises would be to reF2ess has sister.
