Fer a week previous to this Thanksgiving dinner the exeitement in Paris in relation to bim was really intense, and the most absurd apd exaggerated reports were in circu/ation—among ethers, that he bad been sent bere to replace Mr. Bigelow, it beivg considered best at this crivis to Dave a military man here, and all believed that bis mis zion was to “‘bully” the government. The Bourse went @own and remained Mat—as indeed it déex now, the @nanciers awaiting with great anxiety the President's Mesrage. The speeches of Mr. Bigelow and General schofield at the Thankegiving dinner—the one announcing his belief ‘tbat the United States ‘bas now every reasovable prospect, of epjoying a term of peace with all the world to which no wing statesman can presume to fix a limit,” and the other dosing a review of the grand moral Jesson taught by the power exhibited by your government ip the raising and diebandment of immense arm'es witha toast to the ‘old Priendebip between France and the United States’ —have Dad a very decided effect iv modifying their fears and in Dringivg them to the conclusion that your government Je willing to gtve the Emperor a fair chance to escape out -nof bis present Mexican dilemma, This is Bhoy Yo Toole Tatae ‘Fiduzh to crawl Trough witou oiling his clotties and be will “scratch gravel’? as eagerly ep ever did a woodchuck allempting to dig bis way from Bie porevere. The following comments of the Parisian press upon the speeches of Mr. Bigelow and General Schofield are farticulsriy interesting, as showing how important they conelter them.

Senator Williams Looking After the i] Reconstructed in Virginia. He Finds Virginia Loyalty a Myth. The F. F's Cling to Their Exploded Pall of the Confederacy. The Negroes Belligerent. &e. &e. &e. Our Richmond Correspondence, Ricamonp, Va., Dec. 26, 1866." SENATOR WILLIAMS, OF OREGON, IN RICHMOND. As set forth in a former despatch the Hon. George H. Williams, Senator of the United States from Oregon, anda member of the Committee on the Reconstraction of the Southern States, recently appointed by Hon. Lafayette 8. Foster, arrived in this city late Saturday evening on a tour of observation bearing on the intelligent discharge of the duties of the committee of which he isa member, Up to this writing (Christmas night) Senator Williams has devoted his whole time to an investigation of the present actyal condition and political and social prospects of the | the most importanteapital of the latéso-styled Confede- rate States, because first in position, first ig wealth, firstin intelligence, and equal to each and all in all the vari phases of disloygity; The views of Senator Williams will be that neither the Lieutenant General commanding the armies nor Major General and correspondent Sburz in their recent reports to the President of the United States touched upon the condition of affairs in Virginia relative to reconstruction, the former expressly ignoring any conference with the people of this State, and the latter asserting in his report that he was directed not to deal with Virginia upon the subject of his mission, APFEARASCE AND MANNERS OF THE ORRGON SENATOR. Senator Williams is a gentleman of equally impreszive appearance and manners, and to the eye fills the measure ofan American Senator. He is nearly if not quite six feet in height, slim but proportionate of build, with an ample forehead, thick dark hair, dark complexion, and possessed’ of a quick, moving and sharp, penetrating eye. His utterance is both intelli- gent and decisive, and his reasoning ical, close and convincing. In personal manners 18 wholly genial, entertaining and unusually instructive, and presents the appearance of a calm, unimpassioned and thoughiful man of public affairs, skilled im dialectics and immovable iv his convictions. Hoe is evidently a Tepresentative man on the Senate Committ. of Recon- struction; and to this reagon is duo bis presence in Rich- mond on this official tour. RESULTS OF TIS OBSERVATIONS ON VIRGINIA LOYAUTY. While it may not be confidently asserted that Rich- mond opinion in respect to the nature, breadth and sco] of the loyalty of Virginia bears the same relation to the State at largo ns the tail of the lion (cauda est index leoni) does to that august monarch of the forest—up when he is inflamed, an down when subducd—nevertheless it may he safely regarded as the reliable test of all those who have hela public position in the national or Stato councils, the pulpit, the bar, and at tlie more restricted altar of medicine and belle lettres, for the last sixty years, as well as of those—a very largo and influential class— who adhere to the convictions of these, thelr repre- sentative men. S*nator Williams has learned first that Virginia toyaity, represented in both houses of the State legislature and in the social clreles of Richmond, is well nigh an absolutemyth. His observations further teach hin that the people havo an enlarged personal respect for President Johnson, butare utterty devoid of respect for and tolerance of the United States governments hence this personal rogard for the President by reason of his liberal course towards thom me look upon as the very exaltation of loyalty. He finds, and says, that they cling with a teuacious fondness, unexampled in pahistory, under the Singurgstances f most fous defesi and Sectional humiliation, to th exploded fattacies of the confederacy as a benevolent system of governmont, aud cherish with a righteous re- fever the leading aplrits, both dead and alive, in the te gian’ which wascompletely felled by the prowess of the fed ‘rms in April jast. He also finds tho popular sentiment of the Southern poople, as such, indubitably and over- whelmingly opposed to the Congress of the United States and all its functi and — legislative tendencies, owing to the persistent refasal admit the Southern delegates to their sents in cither houso at Washington. They had confidently counted, by virtue of the counsels of certain overwecn- ing conservatives at the North, to enter the councils of the pation, and, in conjunction with these conservatives, role with arbitrary and insolent power, as of old—tius realizing, by a master stroke of Confederate policy, their bulmiest dreams of the opulent, overbearing, Tanded ‘ahd slave driving autocrat of other days. THE NEGRO ISUE, Implicitiy supposing, from varions representations of the baleful Virgiaia press, aided by the suggestions of certain men at the North of bad’ eminence, that the negroes were to rise to-day, he had chosen that his first Senatorial Christmas should be passed here in Rich mond--treason’s very charnel house, wherein it is alive only by the fact of its animated ‘decomposition—and learn for himself the whole extent of the negro’s offences. | Heis convinced that a more quiet, orderly and well dls- posed citizen than the freedman, in this fallen capital, does not dwell jn all the pleasant places of the South. In fine, Mr. Williams concludes that the great object of the war, uext to the abolition of slavery, has beea secom- plished in the success that is now established of labor | over # landed and rotten oligarchy, and that this com- bined result—the ext rpation of slavery and the dignify- ing of labor—is the end, through God, triumphantly atiained in the great struggle now forever solved. Senator Williams returns to the federal capital quite | prepared to conscientionsly eauneiate these view these convictions to brethren of the Senate the committee he represents, He has had int with a large number of distingn!*hed people both tof power here, and has not failed to religionsly and note the weil digested opinions of tue chosen repre eentatives of the masses, both black and white, CHRSTMAS IN RICHMOND, ¢ day in Richmond has becn oue of the quietest T rly on the mormng of the fedora! occnpation of the in April last.
