A large number of Southern tnen, at pres ent la Washington on business connected with the re-establishment of civil govern ment in their respective States, called on the President this morning by appointment, and had a long and agreeable interview.— They first assembled in the east room of the White House, and organized bw calling Mr. Philips, of Alabama, to the chair. Judge Locbrane stated their object to be ~to call upon the President before their de parture, as an act of courtesy, and to ex press to him their unqualified, confidence in the justice and magnanimity of the govern ment in the matter of reconstruction. On motion, Messrs. Bliss, of Alabama; MgFhrland, ot Virginia; White, of Texas; CannoD, of South Carolina; Bass, of Arkan sas Wilkins, of Mississippi; Cochrane, of Georgia; and Baker, of Florida, were de signated to individually present to ihe Presi dent such persons us were present from their respective States. . I jjh. m‘farland’s speech. The delegation was admitted soon after eleven o’clock, and presented to the Presi dent as follows by Mr. McFarland, of Vir ginia : Mr. President— The gentlemen accom panying me, and whom I have the honor of introducing to you, constitute a number ot the most respectable citizens of nine of the Southern States. They come, sir, for the, purpose of manifesting the sincere, respect And regard they entertain for Veto, and to ex press their sincere determination to co-oper ate with you in whatever shall tend to pro mote the interests and welfare of our com mon country, and V 1 *>ay that they are as aarnest now and faithful to their allegiance to the United States and to the Constitution of the Union as in the past, and that they him great confidence in your wisdom to heal the wounds that have been made, and in your disposition to exercise *ll the leniency which can be commended by a sound and judicious policy” That they are assured, in doing this, of yonr desire and intention to sustain and maintain Southern rights in the Union of the United States. PRESIDENT johssos’s reply. The President was surprised at the im posing appearance of the delegation, and was evidently much affected in reply. Every feature and utterance was full of sub ued eloquence. The reply was as fol lows : Gentlemen —I can only say, in reply to the remarks of your chairman, that 1 am highly gratified to receive the assurances he 2**9 given me. They are lhore than I could have expected under the circumstances. I must Say I was unprepared to receive so nu merous a delegation on’thlß occasion ; it was unexpected ; 1 had no idea it was to be so large or represent so tnaay States. When 1 expressed as I did my willingness to see at any time so many of you as chose to do me the huner to call upon me, and 3tated that 1 should be gratified at receiving any manifes tations of regard you might think proper to make, I was totally unprepared for anything equal to the present demonstration. I am free to say it excites in my mind feelings and emotions that language is totally inadequate to express. When 1 look back upon my past actions and recall a period scarcely more than four short years ago, when i stood bat tling for principles which many of you op posed and thought were wrong, I was bat tling for- 1 the same principles that actuate me to-day, and which priciples I thank my God yon have come forward on this occasion to manifest it disposition to support. I say now,as I have said.on many former occasions, that I entertain no personal resentments, en mities or animosities to any bring soul south of Mason ami Dixon’s line, however much be may have differed from me in principle. The stand I then took I claim to bare been only true one. I remember how I stood pleading with my Southern brethren when they stood with their hats in their Jiaads ready to turn their backs upon the United States; how I implored them to stand with me there and maintain our riehts and fight our battles under the laws and constitution at the United State*. I think now, as I thought then, and endeavored to induce them to believe, that our true position was under the law and under tjie constitution of the Union with the institution of slavery in it; but if that principle made an issue that ren-. dered a disintegration possible—if that made an Issue which should prevent us from trans mitting to our obUdrsn a country' as be queated to us by our iathers-rl had nothing ■ else to do hut stand by the government, be the consequences what they might ■ I said then, what you ad know, that I was for the institutions of the country as guaranteed by the constitution, but above ail things I was for the Union of the Slates. I remember the taunts, the jeers, the scowls with which I was treated. Tremember the circlethat stood around me, and remember the threats aqd intimidations that Were freely uttered by the men who opposed me, mid who®,! Wauttd to befriend andfguide by the light that led me; feeling conscious in my own integrity, and that! was right, !heeded not what tbev migbt say or do to me.and vfmeiwpired ted encouraged todo toy duty regardless of aught ; el re, and have- fared to see Use realisation of my predictions and the fatal error of thoae whom! vainly essayed to save from tb« re renal could hot but foresee- GeaUemeu, have passed through this rebellion. I say we, for it was we who are reponsible Tor it Yes, the South made the issue, and I know the nature of the Southern people well enough to know tltat when they have become convipced of on error they frankly acknow ledge it, in a manly, open, direct manner; and now, in the performance of that duty, or, in deed, in any act they undertake to perform, they do it heartily and frankly ; and now that they come to me 1 understand them as saying that: —“ We made the issue. We set up the union of the States against the insti tution ot slavery; we selected as arbitrator the God of battles; the arbitrament was the sword. The issue was fairly and lionnrably met. Both the questions presented have been settled against us, and we are prepared to accept the issue." I find on all sides this spirit of candor and honor prevailing. It is said by all: —The issue was ours, and the judgment has been given against ns; and the decision having been made against us, we feel bound in honor to abide by the arbitrament. In doing this we are doing ourselves no dis honor, and should not feel humiliated or de graded, but rather that we are ennobling ourselves by our action; and we should feel that the gevernment has treated us magna nimously, and meet the government upon the terms it has* so magnanimously proffer ed us. So far as I am concerned, personally, I am uninfluenced by Any question, whether it affects the North or the South, the East or the West. I stand where I did of old, battling for the constitution and the anion of these United States. In doing so I know I opposed some of you gentle men of the South when tbi a doctrine of se cession was being urged upon the country, and the declaration of your right to break up the government and disintegrate the Union was made. I stand to-day, as I have ever stood, firmly in the opinion that if a monopoly contends against this country the monopoly most go down, and the country must go up. Yes, the issue was made by the South against the government, and the government has triumphed ; and the South, true to her ancient instincts of frankness and manly honor, comes forth and expresses her willingness to abide the resalt of the de cision in good faith. While I think that the rebellion has been arrested and subdued, and am happy in the consciousness of a duty well performed, I want not only you, but the people of the world to know that while I dreaded and fear disintegration ot the States, I am equally opposed to consolida tion or concentration of power here, under whatever guise of name; and if the issue is forced upon us, I shall still endeavor to pur sue the same efforts to dissuade from this doctrine of running to extremes; but I say let the same rules be applied. Let the con stitution be our guide. Let the preservation of that and the union of the States be our principal aim. Let it be our hope that the government may be perpetual, and that the principles of the government founded as they are on right and justice, may be handed down without spot or blemish to our pos terity. As I have before remarked to you, I am gratified to see so many of you here to day. It manifests a spirit I am pleased to observe. I know it has been said of me that my asjierities are sharp, that I had vindictive feeUngs to gratify, and that I should not fail to avail myself of the opportunities that would present themselves to gratify such des picable feelißgs. Gentlemen, if my acts will not speak for me and for themselves then Any profession I might now make would be equally useless. But, gentlemen, if I know myself, as I think I do, I know that I am of the Southern people, and I love them and will do all in my power to restore them to that state of happiness and prosperity which they enjoyed before the madness of misguid ed men in whom they had reposed their con fidence led them astray to their own undoing. If there is anything that can de done on my ! part, on correct principles, on the principles of the constitution, to promote these ends, be assured it shall be done. Let me assure you, also, that there is no dispo sition on the part of the government to deal harshly with the Southern people. There* may be speeches published from various quarters that may breathe a different spirit. Do not let them trouble or excite you, but believe that it is, as it is, the great object of the government to make the union ot these United States more complete and perfect than ever, and to maintain ft on con stitutional principles, if possible, more firmly than it has ever before been. Then why caunot we ail come up to the work in a pro per spirit? In other words, let us look to the constitution. The issue has been made and decided ; then, as wise men —as men who see right and are determined to follow it as fathers and brothers, and as men who love their country in this hour of trial and suffering—why cannot we come up and help to settle the question of the hour and adjust them according to the principles of honor and of justice ? The institution of slavery is gone. The former status of the negro had to be changed, and we, as wise mem must re cognize so patent a fact and adapt ourselves to '.Circumstances as they surround us.— (Voices—We are willing to do so. Yes, sir, we are willing to do so.) I believe you are. I believe when your faith is pledged, when your consent has been given, as I have al ready said, I believe it will be maintained in good faith, and every pledge or promise fully carried out. (Cries —It w ill.) AH I ask or desire of the South or the North, the East oY the West, is to be sustained in carrying out the principles of the constitution. It is not to be denied that we have been great suffers on both sides. Good men have fallen on both sides, and much misery is being endur ed as the necessary result of so gigantic a contest. Why, then, cannot wo come togeth er, and around the common altar of our coun try heal the wounds that have been made ? Deep wounds have been inflicted. Our coun try has been scarred all over. Then why cannot we approach each other upon prin ciples which are right in themselves and which will be productive of good to all ? The day is not distant when we shall feel like some family that have had a deep and desperate feud, the various members of which have come together and compared the evils and sufferings they had inflicted upon each other. They had seen the influence of their error and its result, and, governed by a gen erous spirit of conciliation, they had become mutually forbearing and forgiving, and re turned to their old habits of traterual kind ness, aud become better friends than ever. Then let us consider that the feud 'which alienated us has been settled and adjusted to our mutual satisfaction, and that we come together to be bound by firmer bonds of love, respect and confidence than ever. The North cannot get along without tiie South, nor the South from the North, the East from the West, nor the West from the East,; and I say It is our duty to do all that in our pow er lies to perpetuate and make stronger the bonds of our Union/ seeing, that if is for the common good of all that we shpold be uni ted. I feel that this Union, though but the creation of a centuiy, is to be perpetuated for all time, and that it cannot be destroyed except by the all-wisa God who created if. I Gentlemen, I repeat I sincerely thank you Lor the respect manifested on this occasion : and for the expresaions of approbation and confidence please accept my sincere thanks. MR. M’fARLAND’S REJOINDER. Mr. * President—On behßlf of this delega tion I return you my sincere thanks for your kind, generous—aye, magnanimous—expres sions of kindly feeling towards the people of the South. ] The remarks President Johnson were frequently interrupted bv applause ; and all warned highly gritted by the Interview. SECRET ART SEWARXI’s RECENT RECEPTION. K SAVANNAH, GEORGIA, MONDAY, SEPTEMBER fK, 1865. interchange ot many eiviiities and expressions of kindness. The several delegations were introduced by Hon. P. Phillips MB. SEWARD’S GKOROIA REMINISCENCES. When the Georgia delegation was present ed Mr. Seward alluded to the fact that he had resided in Georgia, and taught school there in early life. He inquired if any of his old pupils were present. Judge Bingham replied that there were none present, but that he was himself a native of the county adjoining the one in which Mr. Seward had resided, and knew that local traditions there preserved the memory of his former admin istration. “Yon would find it pleasant," said the Judge, “to visit Georgia, and would be hos pitably received.” Mr. Seward replied that were he more capable of undergoing fatigue and less press ed with other engagements, he would gladly go; for he entertained sentiments of great kindness and respect for the people of Geor gia. ATTORNEY GENERAL SPEED’S REMARKS OX RE CONSTRUCTION. This circumstance was soon afterwards mentioned in the hearing of the Attorney General, and reference was also made to the fact that Mr. Trumbull of Illinois, com menced the business of life in Georgia. The reply of Mr. Seward to the invitation of Judge Bingham gave rise to some remarks in regard to the feelings of the people and the work of reconstruction or restoration. The Attorney General said in substance that he rejoiced to see the era of good feeling so rapidly returning. That the people ot the South had fought for a great stake, and had fought gallantly. The issue had gone against them, and it was necessary that they should accept the result; while ail just principles of fraternity pointed the government to walk in the path of magnanimity and to restore the Union fully at as early a day as practica ble upon constitutional principles, only re quiring that what had been won by the mili tary should not be yielded by the civil ser vants ot the people. REMARKS OP JUDGE BINGHAM. Judge Brngham said the people of the South had placed the great issues that had for so many years produced discord upon the arbitrament of arms. That arbitrament had gone agaiust them, and further resistance was looked upon by the just minded, think ing men there as hopelessly futile, and as even partaking somewhat of dishonor. AN INTERESTING COLLOQUY. Upon this subject Mr. Seward remarked that the policy of the government was to re store and improve, not to injure or destroy. “Thus,” skid he, “the President has said to the large mass—those who were below the rank of colonel, and who were pursuing the humbler walks of life:—‘You shall have present amnesty. With others, who occu pied positions to be leaders in the rebellion, ana whose situations in life were such as to give them influence, the administration must necessarily proceed more cautiously.’ ” A desire was expressed by several that the government would at an early day adopt a general amnesty. Mr. Seward said he hoped the States would all be in their appropriate places soon. For the present the govern ment must make sure work of preserving the peace of the Union. Mr. Bliss, of Alabama, facetiously in quired if, iu cases where parties did not have the twenty thousand dollars making the thirteenth exception, the govern ment would make it up to them. Mr. Seward replied that it would make it up to them iu kindness and good will, and the preservation of peace and quiet so: them selves and their families. When Judge Fslier, of Mississippi, was presented, “So,” said Mr. Seward, "you in tend to be Governor ?” Judge Fislier re plied, “That is yet to be decided.” In con versation with Colonel Fannin, of Georgia, reierenee was had to Mr. Seward, of Geor fia, and bis recent visit to Washington.— hese and other incidents showed that Mr Seward keeps himself thoroughly informed abput the condition of affairs in the several States. Thus pleasantly did the evening pass away, so that it may be emphatically termed a re union Mr. Seward expressed his gratifi cation at the state of good feeling that pre vailed, and, referring to the fact that there were several English gentlemen present, he said ha was glad such an occurrence had tßken place, aud that these gentlemen were with us to witness it. MB. SEWARD YELLS A BIORT He made a delicate reference to the effort that had been made to assassinate him, and said he would tell an anecdote. That when he learned it was the intention of the South erners at Washington to pay him their re spects he states to the friend who informed him that he would be at home this evening, at eight o'clock.. He then notified Mr. Frederick Seward that he would have a re ception this evening. “Reception of whom?” inquired he. “Os the rebels.” “Unless it be a more agreeable reception of the rebels than the last one we had X would prefer not to be present.” “Sure enough he is not present bat he is too unwell to be out.” Several gentlemen promptly said the as sassination was not the act of the rebels ; that true-hearted Southerners scorned the act and despised the perpetrators. The foregoing are some of the incidents of the evening but not all. There many gen tlemen from the South present, mainly from South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama and Mis sissippi. All took part in the conversation freely and all went away pleased with the great Secretary of State and other members of the President's Cabinet who were present. Such free, frank and polite interviews are calculated to do good. Daniel Webster, a son of Colonel Fletcher Webster, and grandson of Daniel Webster, died at Marshfield, Massachusetts, last week, aged twenty-five years.
