have been received quite enthusiastically in the Old
World as experimenting in wonderful intimacy with
the position held by the retrogressive governments
OF Europe. The statements OF Mr.. Browne coming
to the attention Of Mr.. Burlingame eli cited, not
from any fear OF our government being misled, but
that might have an official declaration OF the true
state OF the case, despatch dated at Paris, which
was yesterday presented by the Secretary
OF State and read for the information Of
the President and bis Ministers. The despatch de-
MED the reputed statements of Mr.. Browne and
said that information had been received from the
Court Of Pekin announcing the reception Of the
treaty with the United States So far from the
treaty having been rejected by the Chinese govern
ment, Prince Kung, the Prime Minister and Secre-
tary OF the Foreign once under the reignug EN-
peror, appears satisfied, and nothing has transpred
either to aect the Of the Chinese mission
to impair the confidence OF the government In Mr..
Burlingame or his mission. On the other hand, the
Chinese government Is satisfied with the lab0rs Of
MI. Burlingame and his associates. Chin Tajen and

Of testimony against Mr.. Browne that that gentle
man must have been moved BY very peculiar
alteration. Indeed the act here can hardly be
contemplated as the work OF any one enjoying per-

terviews with the President.
Among the callers at the Executive Mansion TO-
day were Colonel Stokes representing the Capulets,
and Colonel John B. BrOwnlow, representing the
Montagues, OF the radical party in Tennessee
Colonel Brownl0w, who is q son Of Senator Brown
low, was accompanied by Judge J. J. Noah, late
Supervisor of internal revenue In Tennessee. The
parties reached the White House about the same
time and their cards were sent into the President
simultaneously. After brief delay Stokes, Brown.
low and Noah were ushered into the Executive
presence. This was an awkward predicament for
oil concerned. Each Of the parties came to relate
his story OF the late political campaign in Tennessee
aud Of the present condition OF AFFAIRS In that State
with the view, II possible OF getting the Presidents
sympathy. When they entered the President
was engaged in consultation with Secre-
tary Rawlins. He Immediately recognized the
belligerents, however, and Deckoned them to take
seat together on sofa. Neither Of them felt In
clined to make such an approach to pacihcanOn.
Stokes sat down In one part Of the room and Brown
low and Noah IN another. AS soon as the President
was through with his War Minister Stokes approach
ed him. and after few words OF private converse
tiOn Withdrew, leaving the field in the undlsputed
possession Of Brownow and his friend Noah.
Brownlow at once opened the conversation by re-
ferring to the rumors about the Presidents inter-
ference in Tennessee with regard to the election.
The President said he had no more to do with the
local affairs Of Tennessee than he had with those
Of New York, and did not propose to inter-
fere. He recognized Governor Senter as repub-
lican, and also the republicans who voted
for senter and he did not propose to remove any
man, otherwise competent, merely because he sup
ported Senter Colonel Brownlow referred to a
speech made by Stokes In the canvass, wherein he
(StOkes) had said that the President was about to
write q letter endorsing Stokes and condemnng
Senter. The President replied that he had written
no such letter, and had not authorized any person
to make such q statement He had met Governor
Senter, he said III New York, and had very plea
SAINT interview with him. The BrOwnlow party re-
tired with the impression that the President did not
propose to make sweep of what Stokes calls the
"Sener renegades." It appears that Stokes private
talk with the President during his trying dilemma
was for the purpose Of arranging for separate in
terview. This was granted, and late In the after
noon Stokes made his appearance at the White House
for the purpose Of telling his of the story. He
occupied the President until 1t was time for the lat
ter start for the train. Stokes recounted all his
grievances repeated the story Of the campaign as he
had told 1t to your correspondent about week ago,
and the President that he was not here for
the purpose Of having o1lclas removed, but simply
to protection to the Union Of Tennessee.
The President listened patiently to all Stokes had to
say and then expressed the opinion that linton men
would be protected and that all would 60 right IN
Tennessee.
Other Visitors to the President.
Senior Domingo Ruiz one Of the Cuban representa-
tives, had private interview with the President of
an hours DURATION the result Of which has trans
PRED. Governor Walker, Of Virginia, arrived here
this morning, and also had On interview.
Governor Senter, Of Tennessee. is here, and will
leave for Tennessee tomorrow. He is very bitter on
stokes, who, he says, used every means known to.
political chicanery and wire pulling to carry the
election. He expresses the opinion that the new
Legislature will promptly ratify the iteenth amend
ment and that the state Of disorder represented by
the Stokes faction as existing In Tennessee is
greatly exaggerated. He says he will use all the
power Of the state to protect the citizens thereof In
their Just rights. He neither intends to allow negro
depredations nor Ku Klux outrages. Governor
senter did not call upon the President having had
an interview with him In New York.
Senior Roberta New Credentials.
To-day Senior Roberts called at the Executive
Mansion in company with Secretary Fish, and
handed to the President his letter of credence as En-
vof Extraordinary and Minister Penipotentary OF
the Spanish regency. No formal speeches were
made, as this was only continuation OF authority
to act as diplomatic representative, and as Senior
Roberts delivered an address, to which the President
replied at the time, several months ago. when he
presented his credentials, acting for the provisional
government, having succeeded Senior Gon. The
President secretary Fish and Senior Roberts on this
occasion had brief conversation, which partook
more OF social than diplomatic character, aud In
which friendly sentiments were interchangei.
