THE PALMETTO GOVERNORS.

ROTH AGREE TO COME To NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
TO TRAVEL IN THE SAME CAR.
IFRoM REGULAR CORRESPONDENT OF THE TRIBUNE.l
WASHINGTON, March 25.-The hope entertained
by extreme parisans on both sides that the meeting
between the rival South Carolina Governors and the
President could not be arranged because of the re-
fusal of either Chamberlain or Hampton, or both,
10 come to Washington Will not be fulfilled. Gov.
Chamberlain teleqaphed to Senator Patterson on
Saturday morning that he would cheerfully comply
with the Presidents request land that he only de-
laved starting in order that he might first receive
the official letter. The letter should reach him this
morning, and it is expected that he Will leave
Columbia in the train this evening, arriving here on
Tuesday morning. The representatives OF Wade
Hampton have information that he will start at the
same time, and it is not improbable that the two
men whose controversy has made so much trouble
will amicaby travel together in the same Pullman
car and discuss their differences in a philOsophic
spirit during the long journey.
IATER.-The President entertains no doubt that
Gov. Hampton will accept his invitation to visit
Washington. Judge Mackey, in calling upon the
President on Friday evening last, assured him most
positively that Hampton would come, and Gen. NJ.
q Butler who was present did not express differ
emf opinion An effort will certainly be made by
some prominent Republicans here to induce Cham
berlan TO contest the case longer, in view of the
decision of the courts of South Carolina. Whatever
may be the result Of the conference between the
Governors and the President, the withdrawal of the
troops from the South Carolina State House will
probably be ordered at very early day.
