From Washington

Senators Morton and Cameron, in response
to a telegram from the President, repaired to
Washington on the 4th inst. 1t was under
stood that they were sent for in advance Of
the meeting of the Senate, in order that they
might have time to become familiar with the
details of the treaty of the Joint High Com
mission, and to examine such papers and
documents as relate to the subjects of discus
sion between the English Government and
our own. Printed copies of the treaty have
been placed in the hands Of all the Foreign
Relations Committees in the city, and also
the members OF the Cabinet. 1t was expect
ed that it would soon be in readiness to sign.
The Tribune CORES pondent says
Every American member of the com mis-
sion expresses his unhesitating belief that il
will be ratified, and Judge Nelson, who is
the only Democatic member, is enthusiastic
in his admiration for it's provisions He
SAYS ''No fair-minded American, who ex-
amines the subject intelligently and with
candor, can fail 70 approve the treaty in all
its points" The report that MIR. Sumner is
writing speech in opposition to the treaty,
and that be will take occasion in it to ex-
iary Fish, is uniounded Mr.. Sumner has
not seen the treaty. aud he will not oppose
it unless 1t shall appear to his mind, after an
examination, that it is unwise and defective

A Last Warning to the Ku-Klux


PROCLAMATION BY TIE PRESIDENT
On the 18th INST the President issued the
following proclamation
The Act Of Congress. entitled :. An Act to
enforce the provisions of the Fourteenth
Amendment To the Constitution of the
uited States, and for other purposes, APP
proved April 20. 4. D., 1871. being law of
extraordinary public importance, consider
1t my duty TO issue this my proclamation,
calling the attention of the people of the
United States thereto. enioining upon all
good cit zens, and especially upon public
otlccrs, 10 he Jealous in the enforcement
thereof and warning all persons to abstain
from committing any of the acts thereby
prohibited
i he Law of Congress applies TO all parts Of
the United States, and will lie enforced
everywhere to the extent OF the powers
vested in the Executive. But inasmueh a.
. the necessity therefor is well known To have
been caused chiefly by persistent violations
of the rights Of citizens OF the United States
hv combinations Of lawiess and disaflectcd
persons in certain localities lately the thea

AZ particularly exhort the people of those
parts OF the country to suppress all such
combinations by their own voluntary efforts
through the agency Of local laws and to
maintain the rights OF all citizens OF the In
tied states, and to secure 10 All such citizens
the equal protection OF the laws
Fully sensible of the responsibility impos-
"a upon the Executive by the act of Congress
u which public attention is now called. and
reluctant 70 call into exercise any OF the ex-
traOrd nary powers thereby conferred upon
me except IN cases OF imperative necessity,
/ / do nevertheless deem it my duty to make
known that | Will not hesitate TO exhaust
the power thus vested in the Executive
whenever and wherever it shall become nee
esssry to do 50 for the purpose OF securing to
all citizens OF the United States peaceful
enjoyment OF the rights suaran teed to them
by the Constitution and laws. 1t Is my
earnest wish that peace ana cheerful ODE

These ends can be easily reached by acquIes-
ccuce IN the results OF the conflict Low writ

proper enforcement OF equal, Just and Impair

failure OF local communities TO furnish such

Shall the American College be open
to both Sexes?

late number of the CongrsgatiOnalist
contains a noteworthy article in answer to
the above question, from the pen Of President
Angel of the University Of Vermont His
answer to the proposition would be in the
affirmative, and some of bis reasons which he
urges we give az epitomized in the Free
Press
" He urges that it IL desirable that our
daughters as we'll as our sons should have
the most generous intellectual culture we
can furnish that women are capable of the
highest culture and that large numbers of
American young women desire as well as
need high intellectual training. lie shows
further that no considerable number OF young
women can at present obtain such training,
unless our colleges are opened TO them These
facts form a simple and conclusive argument
for the change, unless there are serious prac-
teal obstacles in the way Some of the
familiar considerations which suggest such
obstacles are next discussed. InUs it il said
that the mental habits Of women are so dit
ferent from those Of men that the two sexes
cannot work protitahly in the same classes,
or in the same institution. As 10 th Dis point
Mr.. Angel doubts whether the mental differ
ences of the sexes more formidable
obstacle to working in the same class than i
found in the differing temperamcnts and
talents of young men. He asks II the mental
resemblances are not greater than the diff
ferences, in the minds of the sexes, and If
these resem blances do not form basis for
successful work together under an elastic
system, in which each sex may furnish sug
gestion, inspiration, and help to the other -?
There are many who V III answer yea 70 such
queries.
Again as to the moral perils of the associa-
tion of the sexes in the college will not
young women. so removed from parental SUI
pervision, form undesirable acquaintance
and lose something of womanly delicacv
There is danger here, but 1t is one TO
which every son OF daughter sent away from
home to any kind of a school or college, Is
exposed But Mr.. Angel believes that IN
most colleges the practical wisdom Of the
teachers could avert all serious peril. In
places like our city Of Burlington, young
ladies could find temporary homes a. whole
some as their own. In other places halls for
their residence might be provided under
proper supervision. The experiment, Il lar
as { has been tried. has worked well. Only
good results have followed from the admis-
sion OF both sexes to the Normal Schools
and the colleges which have opened their
doors to women have az Yet found no reason
TO regret il.
! 10 onclusion, President Angel comedies
that careful regard to the state Of public
opinion IN a community must be had in de-
termining when and how 10 make any such
innovation. lie thinks that in most parts
of New England, the patrons ot colleges are
not quite ready for such "A change. but he
evidently believes that the proposition gains
favor with discussion inside and outside of
the colleges, and that the time Is not lar
distant when some Of the New England
