The Project for a Colouial Government Divisions Among the Spanisu Population The Coming of Rodas—No Troops Ex- pectedDissatisfaction Among the Basque Volurteers=The Recognition by PerumNews from Pucrto Principe—The Bishop and Jesuits to be Expelled—Reports from the Interior. HAVANA, June 12, 1869, The significance of the Voz ve Cuba's agonizing entreaties for union among the Spaniards begins to be appreciated here. Tne want of union has caused an entire failure of the project which that journal and the party it represents had in view. Satisfied with their success in the deposition of Dulce, and beileving timat the current they had set in motion would continue to carry all before it, they antict- pated, from the union they advocated, a full reali- zation of those projects which formed the base of their antagonisin to Dulce’s administration. ‘These constituted no less than the establishment of a colo- nial government which, while in apparent accord with Spain, should entirely control the island, Io the present very complicated situation they could not hope for sucvess in striking for iudependence, and go they claimed allegiance while striving for a practical separation. Following on the departure of Dulce, which took place on Satur: a 4 meeting was to have taken place on Sunday at the Tacon theatre to inaugurate the movement, Discord, however, crept into the councils. Many were itating and fearful as to whither their steps were leading, aud a sharp rain storm was sufilcient to prevent the assemblage. It was then proposea among the agitators to publish a mantlesto explanatory of their action in the deposi- tion of Dulce; but here, too, o ons were found so variable and antagonistic that 2 idea was aban- doned. Finally it was determined to prepare a statement of the whole matter for publication in Spain, but while this was under consideration news arrived that Rodas was coming with 4,000 men. This had the effect of an cieciric shock, as it was at once surmised that the object was to keep the volunteers within bounds, if not disarm them. Organization for resistance at once com- menced, and tle idea of not surrendering the fort- resses to the regulars, and to resist, 1f nm » the Janding of Rodas, was advanced and favorably re- ceived. It was at one tine proposed to send a com- mission to Porto Rico to have un interview with the new Captain General, and learn his intentions. As the excitement was becoming threatening, au an- pnt followed that no suck number of troops ning, if any; that they were not thought ‘ssary for the suppression of the insurrection or for auy other purpose, This made the volun- teers jubilant and allayed the agitation at once, and caused all parties to settle down in anticipation of Rodas’ arrival. A report on the condact of Dulce, in justification of their action, is, however, in preparation, and will be sent to Spi Had the project of a colouial government been su cessful it Was the intention to show that the yovern- ment of Serrano and Topete were in accord with the surgents, they having in view we ultimate sale of the islaud, or svwe otuer project mimical to the in- tegrity of Spa During tae week it has been geu- erally circuiated that Dulce would stop at Porto Rico in order to meet Kodas aud explain the situa- tion here. in consequence of the divisions among the Span- {sh population, now temporarily lulled, many of the | more intelligent and wealthy Peninsvlars despair of | Lhe preservation of the island. ‘they lear, too, tae brutality of the volunteers, many of Whom are of the very scum of society. Nor is tt a pated that Spaniards more than Toreigne v pe from the outrages following on the always immi- nent. Many of the Spanish families are leaving in consequence. Among those who have recently gone as the well known and extensive siave trader, Duraiiona, who has heretofore enjoyed great pres tige with the numerous body of Oatalaus here. On taking leave of lus friends he expressed the hope that they would come through the condict success. fully, but he did not wish to remain through the scenes of horror he anticipated. Though not generally known, it 1s a wel! authent- cated fact that the Basque volunteers leit here very much dissatisfied. They insisted that they came out here to assist the volunteers ot the island in the Buy) jon of the insurrection; that they were ‘willing to go With them any and everywhere: but 1t ‘Was not reasonable that they alone should be sent to the fleld, entirely unacquainted as they were with the country and not acclimated. This feeling inter- fered to some extent with the celebration conse- quent on their arrival, and unpleasant demonstra- tions were at one time feared. The Vascongados were finally prevailed upon to accompany Lesca to Villa Clara, which place, as given out to them, they are to garrison. The ill feeling behind was allayed by their apparent departure for the scene of opera- tions. The custom here is to receive the volunteers from the Peninsula with triumphal arches, feast them, deck them with flowers, then send them to the field, while the local volunteers remain at home to wear their pretty uniform and guard the Cubafias. Naturally the Peninsulars regard this is more than ‘heir proportion of crow. The ill feeling throughout ‘the island between the volun‘eers and regulars is confirmed, and affrays are said to have occurred in Trinidad, Sagua and Villa Clara. The fact that Peru and Chile have recognized the belligerent rights of the Cubans has caused deep sen- sation here the the Fifth battalion of volunteera, the subject was un- der consideration, together with its Be paple effect. The 0) of the Court and other joy hé government belonging in Purto Principe to proceed to the scene of their duties has been revoked, owing, a3 18 satd, to the reception of unfavorable news from that jurisdiction. fneur- gent accounts state that Quesada is concentrating @ large force about Principe, with a view to a closer siege than heretofore. Letona, who among others, has been accused ot selling himself to the insurgents, recentiy issued some very stringent and cruel orders threatening the families of those who remain in Prin- cipe in case the city shall be attacked.

A Spanish soldier belonging to the engineer corps, recently returned from the field, expresses his su prise at tne general tone of the Havana press perations in the interior. He states that the insur- gents fignt well and know how to avail themselves of their knowledge of the country. He states that throughout the insurrectionary districts they place hors de combat from eighty to 100 Spaniards every day.

General Valmaseda, from his camp at Bayamo, follows up the enemy without respite, Having re- established the “capitanias” of Cauto, Guiso, Datil, Horno, Barrancal and Yaribacoa, an immense num- ber of revels have come forward for pardon. Anotuer chief, nicknamed Guayraje, terrible in as- Sassinations, has been killed by his own followers, Who Lave presented themselves ior pardon, bringing with them his head. Very few of the filibusters that landed near Mayari remain; in two fights they lost 408 men and all their ammunition. Governor ampodis has ordered that no women or chilaren shall accompany the forces leaving for forage or on any other service; that no meat, fowls, other eatables be brought in or carried out without the necessary permit from the police; and, finaliy, that no trees shail be felled to be burat for charcoal without permission from the police. Mobilized Order Volunteers, San7I Esprnitt, June 4, 1869. An oMcial communication of the military com- mandant, dated Jobosi, May 31, contains the account given by the captain of the Sixth company of the Orden battalion of chasseur volunteers, of an excur- sion in pursuit of the enemy to a distance of fifty- four miles in about eighteen hours, with fifty infantry and fifty cavairy. On the 28th they reconnoitred and passed the Rio Grande, where the enemy was founa upying the hamlet of Guayos. ‘The troops penetrated and encountered a camp of rebels, which, afver litte resistance, was taken, with sixty horses and the rations of the enemy, many arms and sad- dies. It appears the number was 200 inen, from Principe. They were speedily dispersed, taking away many Wounded and leaving two dead on the field. The troops had pot aman wounded.

The system adopted by General Valmaseda divid- ing his troops in small columns, in pursuit of the rebels, has had an excellent effect, The “capita- nias” have thus been re-established, Those of the rebels that have pot yet applied for pardon have gone into the thickets of the Sierra Maestra. Colonel Heredia, of the St, Domingo reserves, at the head ofa small column, lately penetrated those woods, and nearly captured the insurgent General Balsaga, Who only saved himself miraculously, leaving tn the Colonel’s possession a magnificent rifle of seventeen Bho! More than 2,000 persons, mostly having families, have already presented themselves to Valmaseda, and the little hamlet of Verutta has all of a sudden increased to a population of 9,000 souls. El Flanqueador Espavol newspaper of this date contuins a justification of General Vaimaseda’s famous proclamation of the 4th of Aprii iast. It enunicrates the many rebet leaders that he has par- doned who soon after again joined the rebels in tue field, all with impunity. Even now ignacio Diaz, brother of General Diaz, and others perambulate the streets without molestation, Conflicting Reports—Continued Alarm~-More Troops Expected. TReNIDAD, June 9, 1869. Colonel Manuel Lopez Cacho, sent here by the Captain General, arrived on the 3d, and the Ju- mento volunteers went to meet him, On the 6th a company of San Quintin regulars arrived from Tunas in the steamer Damujl. Forces are expected from Havana soon. Mcauwhile the insurgents are at their ease, not far from the city, though on the hills. i Of late there has been plenty of skirmishing, which being heard in town, gives rise to continuous false alarins and exaggerated reports. Every fight gen- erally turns out an even affair—a few wounded on either side. How long this will be permitted to con- tinue it 1s impossible to say. Ins paparved that thirty of the Havana colored mobilized battalion have gone over to the enemy in Santi Espiritu. Route Taken by the Nipe Filibusters—The Sa- banilla and Moroto Railroad.

More Details of the Nipe Filibusters. MAYARI, May 27, 1869. The force which went out on the 20th met an English filibuster belonging to the late expediticn, and who got strayed in the woods. He stated that the expedition amounted to 1,200 men, with 6,000 stand of arms and eighteen cannon. He further mentioned that another expedition was expected, which latter is not improbable, as a war steamer reported yesterday having sighted a suspicious look- ing vessel, which took another course and was being chased. Colonel Hidalgo had just arrived from Santiago with 140 men in the steamer Guantanamo. After landing he was reinforced by eighty artillerista, shipped in the war steamer Africa; 180 do. from Gtbara and fifty-eight infantry of this garrison. The whole force, having formed, took the crossroad to Holguin, where they arrived and found the rations of the enemy’s advance guard. Afterwards they came up with 300 of the filibusters escorting @ con- voy. ‘They tired five shots, waich were speedily re- pled to by our vanguard, and then @ bayonet charge was made, while tne enemy made uve discharges, which only caused our force two wounded. It was our vanguard that replied, till the column came close to the enemy, who was then charged at the point of the bayonet, when he made another volley and immediately dispersed, takin; refuge in the swamps, abandoning his convoy and many arucles of war which were very useful to our troops. A torrent of ram feil shortly afterwards, andthe examination of the field was postponed for the following day. According to the statement of ® prisoner the number of filibusters that landed was 400, of ‘whom only forty-five to fifty were foreigners—Americans, Germans, Belgians and Italians. All that was captured and could not be carried away was destroyed on the 25th, and the column then passed to encamp at Punta Ramon. It left that peninsula on the 26th and the different de- lachments were sent to their respective homes. One of the cannon taken was sent- py Colonel Hidaigo to the Captain General. The {ist of the so- called “Riflemen of Liberty” who were in this expe- dition shows that they are all Cubans. The generality of the filibusters wear blue woollen shirts and pantaloons and some adorn their heads with a red cap, The column commanded by General Buceta has arrived quite unexpectedly, Composed of the Reus battalion of chasseurs, with two pieces of mountain artillery. | They came in the midst of a heavy slower of rain. They have come over the most intransita- ble sort of roads that troops could have to contend with, and in the free possession of the rebels ever since they fled to the woods, in March last, when ths town was taken by the column of Colonel Lopez Camara. Jt appears that on Buceta’s arrival at Palma Soriano he got advice of the Nipe landing, and it is @ pity that the difficulties preveuted his getting on with artillery and baggage at @ more rapid rate than he did. He had to cut his way through dense forests, and had no idea of this on starting; he had to cut his road all the way. The column at last arrived at the hacienda of Cayo del Key, when the torrents of rain commenced. The Si jad to be carried on the shoulders ot their com- rades, which shows that our troops should always be provided with camp tents im these tropics. The enemy had set fire to ail the huts and houses on the way. The column was nowhere hosulized till the next journey, when it approached ‘he haciendas of Buenaventura and Juliana, where rear was fired apon irom the woods, only, how- r, killing one man. Our troops penetrated the oda, but could not descry the enemy. The march from Juliana to Mayart was also rendered painiui in consequence of more rain. On arriving at Guao Abajo the parties of reveis, who have so long been in pacific possession of their localities, fired on the van- guard and atterwaras on the rear, but this occasioned one wounded. It appeara General er ial to remain here, to establish @ provisional field hos- pital for the sick men of his column, and he wiil \uen undertake more active operations, The garrison of this locality consists of 2%9 men; the column of Buceta is 1.000 strong. Between Nipe and Puerto Pz Ire there are 200 men of the two com- panies of Madrid volunteers, 600 of the artillery bat- talion, 600 of the Beuegasi mobillzea volunteers, the $00 men who Janded at Puerto Padre and the 1,000 who accompanied Brigadier Ferrer, besides some other detachments, Reception of Colonel EstefanimRecent Gove ernment Appointments~Mutiny Amoug Nee @ro Laborers, MATANZa8, June 11, 1869, The Avrora publishes the appointments made by the Cuptain General, of Don Domingo Leon as Gov- ernor ant Commandant General of this district; Don Francisco Marcotegui, Chief of Police, and Don Fran- cisco Coronado Delicado as Political Secretary, On the 9th there was a mutiny of the ne- groes belonging to the plantation Laberinto, in the ward of Sabanilla, not far from Union.

THE NATIONAL GAME. Base ball is dying out. it has mounted a veloct- pede and ridden far beyond the range of popularity. One would be apt to think soif he were to have visited the Capitoline grounds yesterday afternoon. Why, there were scarcely more than 10,000 or 12,000 people present to witness a grand game of base ball. Badinage aside, it is safe to say that there were not more than 10,000 or 12,000 present, and it 13 equally safe to say that there were not many less than 10,000 spectators on the ground. While the prospect of a game between the Atlantica and worthy opponents would at any time attract a large crowd, the unpre- cedented display made by the “Red Stockings’’ against the Mutuals on Tuesday fanned the flames of anxiety and interest with which the base ball loving community in thts vicinity was being consumed, and they flocked for relief to their feel- ings to witness the red-legged Porkopolitans and we veteran Atlantics struggle for the mastery. Hours before the time announced for the playing to begin the more anxious began to apply for admis- sion to the grounds, and fully half an hour before the game commenced the crowd appeared to be 80 dense that no more could be packed tn, From all directions the crowd poured in, They came in the cars of every line that ran within shooting distance of the grounds; at the carriage entrance-way there Was a steady stream of carts and wagons, with seats improvised for the occasion and hired out, hotel 'busses, hackney coaches, stages, light wagons, heavy wagons and all sorts of velucles, except ve- locipedes, and all crowded to excess. When at length it became time to commence operations THE SCENE was one of surpassing grandeur. The field, level as a billiard table, presented the appearance of a broad sheet of green uncut velvet. The bright yet pleasing hue of the grass was relieved somewhat by the dark brown gravel paths between the bases and the pitchers’ and catchers’ places and the dazzling whiteness of the bases, The little players, {risking about in their showy uniforms, looked like so many puppets, compared to the extent or the fleld and its surroundings. ‘The immense amphitheatre lately erected at the upper end of the fleld, and extending well down on both sides, and capable of seating several thousand, was crowded, while the specta- tors, who could not squeeze themselves into a place on the amphitheatre benches, sat on the grass in front or ranged themseives in rows close as droves in a cattle train aiong on the bank at either side, and away down to and across at the lower end of the field. The fences bristled with venturesome youths, ranged like so many pike. The trees for blocks around from which even & gimpee of the fleld could be obtained were loaded down with human fruit, while the windows of the club houses and other bouses in the neignbor- hood commanding @ view of the enclosure also con- their complements of sight-seers, and a per- son with extraordinary good sight might have descried aman or boy Lagkaoer| the steeple and holding on by one hand to the lightning rod of a church at some distance, and ing at the game through a powerful fleidglass. ‘The banners of the opposing forces, together with a number of pretty signal flags, fluttered in the breeze, and Old Sol she iding his genial rays over all, rendered the coup @e@it something not easily to be forgotten. Of course, base ball 18 dying out. Shortly after three o’clock the fleld was cleared and a cordon or police- men stood around, and of course had nothing more to do than stand and look on. Mr. M. M. Rogers, of the Lowell Club, of Boston, the weil knowa base ball editor, having been chosen as umpire, THE GAME was commenced with the Ked Stockings at the bat. The Atlantics had a double incentive to do their best to win the game itself for the sake of the vic- tory, and to make a better show than the Mutuals did on Tuesday. Under the circumstances it was supposed that the Red Stockings would have a harder fight to make to win than any they had so far undertaken. This belief was heightened when George Wright opened wita a solid hit toward third base, where Smith picked the ball up ashe was wont to do in former times, and sent it almost.on a line across to Start, thus settling one of the surest of the Cinci’s, The play was loudly cheered by the Brooklynites, and the Western men looked at each other as if they deemed the opening ominous, Gould followed Wright at the bat and sent the ball dancing down across the second base. Pike made a rood vem to get in front of it, but it was travel- ing much faster than he coula, and tae striker got his base. The next three sirikers by good hits se- cured their bases and eventually their runs, Leon- ard sent a hot bounder towards first base, and evel body concluded at once that he was done for. He ‘Was not well done for, however, as ‘Old Reliable’ actually turned his back to the ball and Leonard ‘Was saved. He soon went out, though, ashe got a little too far off the base and was obliged to start for second, but Pearce had sent the ball down to Pike and Leonard was put out. Swasey got to his base by a good hut to left field and ran vo secoud, when the ball one time passed beyond Pearce’s reagh; there he was leit, as McVey sent @ high Oy out to left feld, which was taken care of by Chapiman, thus closing the inning, with five runs for Cincinnati. The Atiantics came in to the bat, and as tie little veteran Pearce leisurely walked to the strikers Place, careiessly swinging the asb, he was greeted with loud cheers. He was evidently determined to keep cool, and so he waited lor a bail to suit him, “One ball’ was called, and in a few moments he got one where he wanted it, and hit it in the old style, sending it safely toright fleid. A good opening and well hailed. Smith soon popped the ball up for Sweasy, and Pearce was very much perplexed as to what he should do. Wright had taken second, and Sweasy might drop the ball to force him along and make @ double play, or he might hold it and put it to rst, and thus make a double play. Sweasy held it, and Peurce had Kept just close enough to first to get back In the nick of time. Pretty soon Start sent tty ball bounding toward second base; Wright! caught it and = heid “% on the base, thus putting Pearce out, and sent it to first, and came within an teh of finishing Start. ‘The latter escaped, however, but did not get around as the next striker was disposed of by Sweasy and Gould at first base.

In the second innings the “ied Stockings” batted fiercely and four runs were scored, all after good hits, before a hand was put out, then seven more runs were made, aided by mutts by Pike, Start and Smith, ere the second hand was put out; then two more after good hits and Brainard was left on second when Sweasy was made third hand out by Smith and Start. Furguson got to his base on ‘called’ balis, stole second, helped along by a slight drop by Aliison and i up to the third on Prati’s hit and there he was fete, a3 «Crane, Pratt and Pike went out in succession ; Pratt being cared for by G. Wright and ould, aud tye o' 4 taken on foul flys by Gouid be Ans an by the latter “irom Pike's it ied very fine. As may be judged Brainard was pitching splendidly and e1 ively, and Allison's catel was so femarkabiy fine that it was sug- that there must have been some magnetic amnity between his hands and the ball. Beyond this point the score given below will aimost teil its own story. As individual instances of good play may be mentioned a fly catch by G. Wright of a very high bail from McDonald’s bat, a double play by G. nt and Gould, a line bali from Start’s bat and Smith put out at first, a double play by MeVey and Gould, disposing of Pratt and Crane, on the fly aud at first: two good fly catches by Hi, Wright, one by Leonard; a difficalt fly catca by McVey trom McDotr ald’s bat, and a unique tip fy i by Allison from Pike's bat; in the last che bali went straight back to the catcher—he stumbied with the force of the ball, which bounced up out Of his lands a foot or two— he t Lit up two or Uiree tines as he was stom. bing backward , and caught it as he fell, sttung the ground, On the Atiwutic side very little oi ex- traordinary merit ‘was dove, Crane made two er handsome fy catch, and Chapman very pretty ones, Pearce, who had hurt his in the second mnings, changed piaces with Fe gon inthe sixth innings, and in the eighth made a good play at short stop.

(From the St. Catherines (Canada) Journal, June 14.) it 1s not every day at this early season of the year that the people of Niagara Falls can lay claim to having had a genuine excitement—a nine cays’ wonder. But yesterday an event happened there which has set tongues wagging on both sides of the river, and wili doubtless remain the topic of the period until some fresh excitement replaces it, HOW IT OCCURRED. The immediate cause of the hostile meeting which we are about to chronicle isthe result of political duferences between rival editors, Both gentlemen edit newspapers in New York. One is published in the Cuban interest and is called the Libertad Cubas, ‘The other advocates Spanish interests and is named El Cronwa, \t ts not astonishing they could not agree, and each wrote what was probably con- sidered by these hot-headed Southrons as in- sulting articlos, which could only be atoned for in blood. It is said that they happened to meet tn a New York hotel, and while each was sur- rounded by his respective friends the Spaniard gave the Cuban the lie, which caused the latter to throw a glass of wine into the Spaniard’s face. As a mat- ter of course so flagrant a challenge could have only one settlement, and that was a recourse to the duevio, Friends were at once named, who settled upon time and place of meeting. ‘This they desided should be in Canada, and no less a personage than the Captain General's lieutenant is said to have come on two weeks ago and selected the ground upon which the fight should take piace, THE ARRIVAL, On Saturday the principals and their friends, eight in number, arrived at Niagara Fails, N. Y, ‘Lue Spanish party registered at the Interaational, while the Cubans selected the Cataract as their headquar- ters, All things being in readiness two carriages were engaged, and between four and five o’clock on Sunday morning the whole party crossed the allway) Suspen- sion Bridge. They were accompanied by a guide and an interpreter, both of whom plloted them to a secluded grove in Stamford township, near the whirlpool, where they siignted and prepared for ac- tion, the understanding being that the tight saould continue till one fell. THE MEETING. The principals, jwho are small, swarthy-looking mep, walked up to the ground with quick, nervous strides, The seconds immediately marked off the ground, peaced the weapons in the hands of their len, and gave the word. The duelists, who were back to back, took six paces forward, wheeled and fired. The first shots passed harmlessly, so did two succeeding ones, but on the fourth the Cuban was wounded in both thighs, the ball glancing from one to the other, making very ugly, but, it 1s said, not fatal wounds, At the same time the Spaniard came near being winged in the breast, the Cuban’s last shot cutting nis vest, coat and shirt, but did not graze the skin. The wonnded man, after being shot, st two or three paces, threw up his hands and fell. He was quickly in the arms of his friends and his wounds attended to by one of the party, who is a surgeon. ‘The drivers of the carriages were then called, but one of them fatied to appear for a few minutes, hav- ing taken shelter in an adjacent sandhole, so as to be out of harm’s way. As quickly as possible both parties got into their carriages and wer¢ driven bagk to their hotels across the river, the affair havitz only occupied about an hour. They had only just had breakfast before the authorities were apprised of what had taken place. WHAT FOLLOWED. At eight o’clock a warrant for the arrest of the Spanish party, consisting of José Fres, Francisca Cwerna, Carios Garcia and Manuel Fandora, was placed in the hands of Chief of Police Robert Calla- dine, and at the same time a warrant for the arrest of the Cuban party, consisting of José Gutterra de la Vega, Carios Mares, José Fuerer de Conta, M. Fran- cisco Quilano Pelisier. He arrested the Cuban arty at the Cataract, but came near losing he pi who were just stepping on board the cars. They were all locked up excepting the wounded man, but speedily obtained bail for their appearance before Justice Samway at nine o’clock this morning, when they will have @ hearing. It would seem as if by coming to this side of the river that ioe would not be amenable to United States laws, but by their arrest such seems not to be the case. What punishment will be awarded them is not known, but probably it may not be severe. The village of Niagara Falls is 1n @ tremor of excitement over it, and the aitair 13 almost the exclusive topic of conversation. ‘fhe Wounded Cuban is named Carlos Mares, and his Spanish antagonist Manuel Fandora, COURT OF APPLALS.

CHOLERA IN GAMBIA, WEST COAST OF AFRICA, Ty the last accounts, dated the 17th of May, re- ceived froin the Gambia, It appears that the cholera, which had almost entirely ceased in McCarthy's Isiand, has now broken out with great virulence at Bathurst, the seat of the government. Admiral Patey, the administrator of the government, had in anticipation of the disease taken every precaution Jor its prevention or mitigation; gangs of mon had been employed cleaning the streets and buryiny every sort of filth or nuisance; part of the general store had been converted into a temporary hospital to hold fitty or iy patients, and fourteen stations opened in tie town for the distribution of medicines, The first decided case appeared on the 6th of May, and trom that date the disease rapidly spread—froin seven deaths on the 5th to seventeen on the vt, twenty-nine on the 4th and thirty-two on the 1th) out of a population of about four thousand. Thé total number of deaths up to the 17th of May were 190; of these none were Buropeans. The disease seems to be of the most violent character; three or four hours are reported to be the longest attack, while many drop dead after as many minutes, hiiced to bury the dead in trenches, act Ung the example with thetrown hands, as the oni. way to induce tie natives *o assist in the work, ‘The disease is also spreadiag amoug we native towne aloug the river, THE ADMINISTRATION. Exclusiveness at the White House—The Seciat Qualities of Former Presidente—Growls of the Politicinns—The Cabinet Does Not Ku- dorse Summner’s Belligerent Attitude—All in Favor of Peace. WASHINGTON, June 15, 1869. To those who have noticed the advent and progress of the different administrations at Washington many remarkable contrasts are noticeable, especially when observations are made with the advantage of personal contact, To go no further back than the time of the stately old sage of Wheatland, wnatever may be said of his politica! course, he kept up tho dignity of the White House, and was its constant in- mate, deducting the brief intervals for imbibing the recuperating waters of Bedford springs, adulterated with a possible moiety of his favorite ‘old rye.” If his courage was not equal toa grapple wtth the causes that brought on our late unpieasant- ness, he was never afraid of the politicians, nor did he deny them admission when their knock was heard at the Executive apartment. Nor yet had he any dread of contact with the public, Regularly eacn day, at the hour of twelve, bis single attendant, a party whose surname was Andy (not Johnson), was instructed to admit the crow4, and if dignitaries happened to be present when the time arrived they had no alternative but to encounter the common people. In those days correspondents were as good as tho best, and they could stand in front of the bright wood fire and kick the forostick if they liked, in token of their impa- tience for casual visitors to retire and give them @ chance for a private word, Mr. Lincoln never allowed unnecessary obstacles to be thrown in the way of visitors, His time and strength were severely taxed, but he never denird interviews to those who sought his presence, save when the pressure of important duties made ft im- possible for him to grant them. To the gentlemen associated with the leading newspapers of the coun- try he was particularly kind and courteous, He did not regard the Executive Department ag 80 essen- tually different from the others as to require a sys- tem of exclusiveness. He looked upon it as a business branch of the government, the transac- tions of which were public property, to be conveyed to the public through legitimate channels aud in the most accurate form. ‘The presentation of a correspondent’s request for admission did not excite his ire. On the coutrary, it was his pleasure to see and converse with gentlemen whose employment was to coilect important facts and convey them to the world in an intelligible form, In that familiar manner which was peculiar to him he used some- times to say, ‘Well, boys, | haven’t athing to tell ou; but i’m glad to see you, because you always ring me some news; and then he would sit and converse with them, gaining a fund of information upon general topics which he had neither the time nor the strength to gican irom other sources. With the late incumbent, A. J., there was no aim. culty in obtaining an interview. Indeed, Andy loved to talk with press men when ne found them tnielli- gent and worthy of confidence, Each of these administrations was distinguished for the good or evil it accomplished, and their sepa- rate heads succeeded in making some friends and of enemies enough. They were all possessed of at least some elements of POG, nor were they desti- tute of those qualities of adhesiveness that impart strength to political factions and eiiciency to or- ganized effort. They were capabie of originating a policy and of submitting its merits to the severe test of eee scrutiny. 7 ‘hatever may be said of our new administration by the critical observers of ita progress, it may be safely affirmed that it is not so absorbed with pend- ing and vita! issues as to disturb tts equanimity or prevent its participation im pleasures aud pastimes, with extraordinary facilities for comfort and exclu- siveness and a full measure of “pomp and circum- stance.” It 18, perhaps, almost too early in the hustory of the present administration to undertake an estimate of its stature; but, inasmuch as Presi- dent Grant 1s shaping a course with an independ- ence indicating his confidence tn his skill a3 a politi- cal navigator, it will be in order to record some facts suggestive of the encountering of possible breakers. It is apparent to experienced politicians, who ex- press their views without reserve, that the Prest- dent lacks many of those quaiifications essential to success and indispensable to unpart character and stability to his administration. It is not feared that he wul ever inaugurate a vigorous policy of hus own, because he is not equal to originating and maintaining a scheme involving the manipulation of the intricate machinery by which the wheets of gov- ernment are revolved. I[t is asfirmed that he ts averse to encountering discussion upon vexatious questions and to the solution of political problems that have taxed the intellects and ingenuity of statesmen, and that are likely to present themselves: in such forms as to exact reflection and considera- jon. All his movements are constscent with his charac- ter and habits as a military man. He acts upoo bis own responsibility and consults hile own prefer: of and the result is that he 1s enveloped ia a mantle of exclusiveness that 13 distasteful to the politicians, Whose restiveness is beginning tu show ttsell by contrast with his complacency. Already the Sum- ner policy on the Alabama question has become the policy of a faction of the repudiucan pariy. The re- sults of tue War have been so auspicious that tiey look for continned success by mcorporating Air. Sumner’s belligerent sentiments into the creed that is to distinguish it {rom other organizations. if oar dilicuities with England are not adjusted before the meeting of Congress Mr. Sumner will be sustained at the next session by some of the more powerful radical members, upon the ground of principle and as @ matter of expediency, The President does not fully coiacide with Mr. bumper. Mr. Motiey’s in- siructions did not make Mr. Sumner’s speech the ulttmatam for this country. Whatever counsel the President gets from his Cabinet will be favorable to the maintenance of fricadiy relations, ‘The Secre- taryof War has had fighung enough, and the be fit of Stanton’s lively experience besides. The + cretary of the Navy is not a dghting man. With b Christian principles he has an aversion to killing, aud not being much of @ navigator he can manage the stips betier inacalm. Secretary Boutwell ts at work on the pubilc debt, and he has a decided pre- ference for paying it of to making it larger. The Secretary of State and the President are for tnesame thing, whatever it may be, but it does not contem- plate fighting. The Secretary of the Interior has hia appointments, the noble savage and the Quaker agents to look after. He 1s for peace. The Post- master General is busy with decapitating Knife, and he has the eyes of both Delaware and land upon him. He goes with the Secretary of State and the President. The President and iis Cabinet, then, tt ts safe to say, area unit on the questton, and Cabinets are sure to remain a unit uniess they are fooled into saying foolish things by that moaern device for the bewilderment of politicians, the sere- nade. if Mr. Motley 1s so fortunate as to get a settlement before Congress meets Mr. Sumner’s thunder will go for naught, we shall have peace with our mother and peace in the republican party, until ‘agitators devise some new scheme in order to pro- duce @ rupture; but if otherwise not! is more certain than that Congres’ will be divi The President is commisted to peace, if not by open declarations, % inferen and he predt to a tiine of y that avoid war as # means avoid! complications that would accumulate care oa ion. For the 0 ji advanced by others, : ipvosrad princiries opinions advan others on than to originate counter sentiments. The int cles appertaining to the science of civil require the application of and labor, which he is averse to jw. For the heavy routine of executive duties he has not the expe- rience nor the intellectnal training of @ statesman sel. Men who are dependent upon him for the places: chey hold will yreld unanimous assent to his admin- istrative policy; but how will it be with and the disappomted politicians? Already many of them are ready to affirm that he is not a statesman; that he is not enough of politician to comprehen doctrine of expediency; that he is not equal to any of those emergencies that may arise requiring the prompt and energetic action essential to the beroetuation of the dominant party; does not recognize the m personal identity with party exacted by the partisan rule; that, thus far, he has failed to receive t unreserved commendation of the more influential members of his party and the hearty ee teen of the press—in short, Hat his administration has developed notaing areal, nothing attractive, nothing that indicates a grasp of thought and intellect that shouid distin- gush the head of the most powerful organization tue country has ever Known, As a natural consequence the White House is not sought by the men Who represent the principles and policy of the party. They are conscions of his aver- sion to the dry detatis of business, and that for this or some other cause access to the Executive pres- ence is difficult, aad that trivial obstacles are inter. posed not heretofore encountered, ‘The stature of the administration, therefore, measured by all these considerations, does not assume colossal dimen. 4.
