WASHINGTON, Sept. 16-The President and Cabi-
net have been mainly engaged throughout the day
with the Louisiana question. After the President
had started his baggage last night for the train and
was about following himself, Secretaries Fish, Bris
tow and Jewell drove up, and. after brief con-
sultation, the President decided not to leave the
city at present, and the conductor of the train
which was waiting for him, was informed of the
change in the programme. Early this morn
ing the Cabinet was called, and when it assembled
il was suggested after general and informal inter-
change of views that an adjournment should take
Mace till g. and that each member should return
then prepared to make suggestions in regard TO the
matter in hand. A few moments consultation was
sufficient TO show that the Cabinet was unanimous
in the conviction that the only course open to the
President is to support the Kellogg Gov
eminent, and to reinstate it in power. Dis
patches were Immediately forwarded to Newt Orleans
to the effect that, under circumstances whatever,
should the Penn Government be recognized. Kel-
logg's personal conduct yesterday, received the
most severe and unqualified condemnation.
His desertion of his proper post was char
acterized as cowardly, and it was agreed on
all hands, that the greatest difficulty in
the whole problem arose from the personnel of the
Kellogg Government. 1t seemed to be conceded
that the government which had Ousted Kellogg was
one that would be better for the peace and general
prosperity of the State than the one Oyerthrown !;
but, notwithstanding this the creation of viO-
lence and armed rebellion, it had no claims rights
which the General Government could recognize.

ATLANTA, Ga, Sept l6.-Coming from Augusta 10
Atlanta met the Hon. Alexander ID. Stevens. ex-
President of the Confederate States, who, for
the first time since his recent severe and prolonged
illness, was taking trip the cars. He got on at
Crawfordyie, where he resides, and rode to Green's
boro. The news from Louisiana was. of course, the
nrincipal topic of conversation. Being asked his
onnon on the Penn coup deat, Mr.. Stephens said it
VIVA but another presentation of the old and ever re-
cnrrine question of States rights local sel-gov-
eminent He deprecated resort TO violence what
ever the people of the South might suffer from mis-
rue but since Louisiana had resorted to such means
he was glad to hear that the victory was
comparatiyely bloodless While the citizens OF
that State must command sympathy In
their misfortunes, they should be allowed
10 fight their own battle. as they were doubtless
able TO do There Is no necessity Of profiers OF aid
frm other Southern States, and those who fooishly
talk of stopping the passage Of United States troops
en- route TO New Orleans remind him OF the minute
men of 1851, who became the home guard Of latter
wears OF ths war. He thought Gen. Grant would not
interfere unnecessarily. and incidentally remarked
that be believed Grant to DO moro cordially hated
by the radical politicians than any other man In the

o THE cANvAssING FOR MINOR CANDIDATES.
There has been very little canvassng to-day IN
relation to the minor candidates the ticket to be
nominated Tomorrow and the result may depend,
as il often does upon the turn that affairs may take
after the Convention assemblies. There is not likely
to be any slate and locality viii have more or less to
do with the selection of candidates There is less
disposition manifested to give the Liberal RepuDli-
cans the Lieutenant Governorship than yesterday,
and Smith NJ. Weed is strongly urged for the place
1t being settled that Tlden to be the candidate Tor
Governor, Stewart, Cokling, and Whitebouse are
ruled out coming from the end of the State.
IL any Liberal gets the nomination, 1t will probably
be Dorsheimer of Buffalo. it is understood that
neither Seldom nor Littlejohn desires the nomi-
nation. .'f i.-i'
THE PLATFORM.
Little is yet known of the platform, except that it
will embody the substance of the Liberal resoiu-
tions adopted at Albany and will favor uniform
excise law through the State. The German dele
gates insist Oh this The Committee on Platform Is
a strong one and will hardly fail to hatch out
string of plausible resolutions but they are little
puzzled how to treat the late Southern outrages.
Mr.. Fellows, in his speech tonight gave them a
hint that the outrages the legitimate result OF
ten years of radical rule, and very likely they may
conclude that that is the easiest way to dispose OF
them.
