PRESIDENT GRANTS Views. y esterday the
Louisiana delegation to the National Colored
Civil Rights Convention, which Is in session
here, visited President Grant IN body, aud
were introduced by Senator West. ln present.
ing the delegation the Senator remarked that
its members embraced many Of the Intelligent
working Republicans in the State. He then
introduced James Lewis, who proceeded to ad-
dress the President, and said the delegation
came to pay their respects and thank him On
behalf of the colored people OF Louisiana for
the protection they have received from him
since his Presidential term commenced. He
hoped that he might long eujoy the blessing
of good health, and that the cvored men might
continue to receive his kind consideration and
care
The President responded by saying that be
was glad to meet them. He had always en-
deayored to secure for the colored men all the
rights which should accompany enlranchise-
meut Certain rights are still withheld, but
be hoped that ere loug they would ind them
selves in possession of all the privileges which
belong to irecmeu Hc said he did not know
what Congress would do in the matter, but be
thought it likely that that body would, at its
present session, pass civil rights bill, and
that il such bill is defeated it will probably be
because an extreme measure is urged by some
person who claims to be "a particular friend Of
the colored man.
The members Of the delegation were then
introduced individually by Senator West.
After cordial handshaking the delegation re-
tired, apparently we'll pleased with their inter-
view - Washington Republican.

removed the cover of the bowl,
and carefully emptied the con-
tents of the bowl into paper,
which she tied nicely up and hid
under her shawl. Now this pro
ceeding was all witnessed hy a

her. Against this high prote ctive
tariff she loudly eXpo>tuiHt'd, Il, and
kicked up quite Il fuss, unit finally
the waiter was compelled t" resort
to the uisaureeahle necessity of
telling her that the "Xtra quarter

A train of annuity goods or the
|In ians arrived yesterday after
noon. The. savages will certainly
receive, or be offered, all they are
entitled to of these goods; for if
what we inspected is q sample of
the whole lot, we don t believe
any one but "a wretched, naked In-
dian would accept them as a free
Gift. The blankets are made from
the very refuse of the WOODEN fac
tory. are scarcely close enough in
texture to hold oats, and wouldn't
be used by white men for horse
blankets. We are satisfied the
original cost could not have been
over two dollars Il pair, and intrin-
sieally they are not worth us much
as it has cost to bring them here.
If this is the kind of civilizing
influence We are to exert in deal
iny with the aboriginals. the best
hope in their behalf of the phil
must be for their early
extinction. Such treatment is
outrageous and disgraceful to the
government. The goods are con-
signed to II. II. CobIeigh, Pioche."
The Indians are clamoring for
their goods, but Acting Agent IN
calls should peremptorily decline
to receive them if they are all as
worthless as the portion we saw.
We will guarantee him against

Washington and hang up in the
