The President upon Radical
Measures.
Important Declarations and Suggestions.
From the National Intelligencer.]
The following is the substance of a
conversation which took place yesterday
between the President and a distinguish
ed Senator, as telegraphed North by the
agent of the Associated Press;
The President said tha" fie doubted the
great pleasure, believing that it is a sim- i
pie and efficient plan, whieh will recom
mend itself to the Ladies of Georgia, who j
delight in good works, without personal ;
notoriety. Chas. Jas. Jenkins.
The New York Times, edited by Ilenry |
J. Raymond, a leading Republican mem
ber of the House of Representatives, thus
speaks of one of Sumner’s negro bills:
“This is the ‘shadow’ of ‘coming events’
It indicates the character of future legisla
tion, should the power reside in such hands.
Returning a moment to the question of
colored suffrage in the District of Colum
bia, it is proper to say that its real purpose
is to signalize and crown the. event by the
election of a colored man for mayor of the
city of Washington. Without inquiring
what chance of success the scheme has,
it is- certain that such is the undeclared pur
pose. of the bill introduced by the Judiciary
Committee of the House of Representatives.”
America presents, truthfully remarks
the Paris Palrie, of Jantiry 5th, the sin
gular spectacle of a President without
the least authority,, and forced by Con
gress to fail in the solemn promises which
he made to tin* snbdued States of the
... r . . .. , , South, and of a Congress in which a third

To all whom il way coiue r n.’- D. W. K. Pea
cock, Deputy Collector, First Division, Fourth
amendments to tbe Constitution. One
great amendment had already been niade„
by which slavery had forever been abol
ished within the limits of the United
States, and a national guaranty thus giv
en that the institution shonld never exist
in the land. Propositions to amend the
Constitution were becoming as numerous
as preambles and rcso ntions at town
meetings called to consider the most ordi
nary- questions connected with the admin
istration of local affairs. All this, iu his
opinion, had a tendency to diminish the !
dignity and prestige attached to the Con- '■
stitution of the country, and to lessen j
the respect and confidence of the people !
in tiicir g.'eat charter of freedom. If |
however, amendin'fits ar6 to he made to |
the Constitution, changing the basis of ;
representation, (and he did not deem j
them at all necessary at the present j
time,) he knew of non 1 * better than a sim
ple proposition, embraced in a few lines,
making : u each State the number of qual
ified voters the basis of representation,
and the value or propeity the basis of di
rect taxation. Such a proposition could
la- embraced in the following terms:
‘■Representatives slull be apportioned
among the several Stares which may he
included w itliin this Union accoidmg to
the numbered qualified voteis in each
St ale.
“Direct taxes shall fie apportioned
among the several States which may be
included within this Union according t<>
sixty members,) and which, nevertheless, j
is ahoat making laws for the entire coun
try. What is sadder yet is, that the
Senate, which is Composed of men of ripe
age, and destined by the Constitution to
act as a balance and moderator, is con
ducting itself with a party spirit as much
to be regretted as that of the House of
Representatives. . .
Mo Indemnity for damages sus-
tain- d during tlie Wan
The large number and magnitude of
claims from citizens of States lately in re
bellion, growing out of the destruction
or damage to property by the army or na
vy while engaged in suppressing the in
surrection, have compelled the House
Committee on Claims, (says a recen
Washington dispatch,) to give the matter
their grave consideration. Ever since
the formation of ihe Committee in Dec.,
these claims have been crowding upou
them, and the great importance of estab
lishing some rule for the guidance of Con
gress has each day become more appa
rent. The Committee has at length adopt
ed a rule which was presented to the
Hofise, on Thursday last, in the form of a
resolution, declaring that, until otherwise
ordered, the Committee shall reject all
claims referred to them for examination
by citizens of any States lately in rebel
lion, growing out of the destruction or
damage of property, or appropriations of
property by the army or navy during the
late war. The Committee, in their report,
come to the conclusion that there is no ]
rule or law requiring the recognition by |
Congress of claims of this character; that
the magnitude of the public debt, created
to suppress the rebellion, renders it im
possible for the Government to compen
sate all those who have sustained indi
vidual losses from the action of any ol
our armies in the field; that the attempt
to pay such claims would impair the na
tional credit abroad, destroy confidence
in the public securities everywhere, and
impose such additional burdens of taxa
tion as to give cause for discontent and
complaint, and lead to c the possible en
couragement of the policy o! repudiation.
What Next?—The last diabolism pro
posed in Congress, is to levy a tax on the
Soul hern States to pay the expense of
keeping troops among them. It seems
we are not only to submit to military law.
but to pay for the privilege of having it

There are gratifying signs, says the

utterances of many whose zeal, if lion-1

cal wisdom and sagacity. \\ a hope sin-
cerely with Mr. Fessenden, that the party I
in power may do what is right “at the

The l’retddent in this connection, ex
pressed tho opinion that the agitation of
the negro-lianehise question in the Dis
trict of Columbia at this time was the
mere entering-wedge to the agitation of
the question throughout the States, and
was ill-timed, uncalled-for, and calculated
to do great harm. He believed that it
\viitild engender enmity, contention, and
strife b tween the two races, and lead to
a war between tbem, which would result
in great injury to both, aud the certain
extei initiation of the negro population.—
Precedence, he thought, should be given
to more important and urgent matters,
legislation upon which was essential for
the restoration of the Union, the peace of
the country, and the prosperity of the
people.

raised by the ladies of Georgia for the re
lief of Mrs. Davis and family. Surely
our ladies will not refuse to eo operate in
such a laudable work. We believe that
association will be formed at once and eren

The following is the admirable appeal of
Governor Jenkins:
The ladies of Milledgeville and vicinity
have formed an association, having for
it8 object the raising of a fund for the
purpose of securing to Mrs. Jefferson l a-
vis and her children a permanent provis
ion. , .
The plan proposed ig. that each lady in
Georgia, willing to promote the object,
pay to the Ordinary of the county ol her
residence one dollar; that be be requested
to receive the same aad forward snm to
tal,- with a ligt of the contributors, to
John Jones, Esq?, Treasurer of the Stale
at Milledgeville, by expres3 or other safe
conveyance, when, in his opinion, contri
butions from his county sliall have ceas-
cd-~ and that the Association, so soon as
they have reason to believe that all col
lections made have been received by Mr.
Jones, with his assistance, take .measures
to place the aggregate in the hands of
Mrs. Davis., *. .
It is not proposed to make any exciting
appeal on a subject, the mere mention of
which will arouse the lively interest of
our noble women. The plan is simple,
the agents suggested reliable, and easily
accessible to the ladies.
The officers of the association respect
fully fi^equest, 1st, that such newspapeis
