WASHINGTON, January 2O.-Tho Presidents
Private Secretary, Mr.. Worden, telegraphs to
several papers which employ him, that nego-
tiations are pending between our government

stitution to such an extent. as they believe
be eecas, Oh by the .:inia..
~ con ltlesei w1pn WHICH, they say that the
real feeling Of the people Of the State is ex-
pressed when they declare the belief that the
freedmen of the South, in their present uned-
ucated condition, are not prepared Tor an in
telligent use of the elective franchise, &C.; yet
in view OF the public opinion expressed in
the recent election, they believe that the ma
jority Of the people are willing to incorporate
universal suffrage in their fundamental law as
Offering an altar Of peace, e,and hoping for q
restoration of the Union with harmony on the
basis Of universal suffrage and universal am
nesty, and considering that the policy of the
government requires from Virginia constitu-
tional recognition OF the civil and political
equality Of all men before the law. They have
in the amendments proposed inserted all the
provisions looking to that result, heretofore
deemed proper by Congress, and have left INV
touched any provisions Of the constitution re-
lative to the subject.

member, with un bated health occupy MS ac-
customed seat to cheer with his presence aud

German Industry, German Fidelity, and the Purity
and Zeal of the Early Reformers-an example and q
guide to ther posterity.

ent, and it might have been appropriately res-
ponded to. He hoped, however, that those

he called upon the representative Of the

A. Moroso, Esq, ono Of the editors Of the

timent. &,..a

and entertainment OF the occasion. Professor

accompanied him with a fine voice. and wine,

THE SOUTHERN EDUCATIONAL IND
AID SOCIETY

The Baltimore Gazette publishes tho last
monthly report Of The Charleston School Of the
Southern Educational Aid Society, under the
charge of the Rev. A. Toomer Porter. Mr..
John Hanckel, the Secretary and Treasurer,
says in his report:
We have added twelve scholars and have
been compelled to employ an additional male
teacher, 80 as to enable the principal to have
moro time for general supervision. The school,
although but recently established, already at
tracts rho attention OF the community, and has
received many assurances OF satisfaction from
the parents and guardians Of pupils. AS TO
the Home for Boys, it is regarded as one Of the
most comprehensive, far-reaching and benefi-
cent charities which has been extended to the
South slnce our troubles. We have applica-
tiOns from all parts of the State for admission
and as soon as the alterations needed in the
Home, recently purchased for this work, are
completed, we will be able to meet to a CON
siderable extent, this great want of u people,
whose chief sorrow in their Ievcrses has been
the hopelessness Of giving their children res
pectable education.
The expenses Of the school for December
afe:
For principal and eleven teachers ..... s47o 90
Tho expenses Of the Home. observation-disclosures. 557 so
,. Total. .s1o47 50
Re ceived here OF scholars. $50 90
Leaving balance to he provided tor ..... .s717 so
We have received most favorable accounts
from tho President of Trinity College, Hart
ford, Of the diligence and progress OF the
young gentlemen who entered there in Sep
tember last from this school. Another youth
goes on to enter from this school on the 10Th
Of january youth who has been with us
from the beginning, who has studied with
great industry and faithfulnoss, and has ac-
4complished IN one year as much as is general
ly done in two.
The Baltimore Gazette says:
Although the society has been scarcely
year in existence, it is evident that the gene
rous assistance given by Baltimore and New
York has not only been productive Of much
real good, but has given such engagement
to o disheartened people, that the scho 81 is al-
ready in the way to be supported by it's friends
at ana near home. The monthly receipts from
the plrents and friends of scholars already
reach an important amount, aud as the condi-
tion OF the South continues to improve, it is
very evident that the citizens OF the different
Southern States will gradually be able to pro-
de ,,t21,, fri their , oYn schools IhoIgh gratsl
ceve aid because it is necessity, and they
look hopefully forward to the day when they
will be no longer obliged to ask for it.
