Wasnrnoton, August 11, 1969, The Cabinet Diuner—Departure ef the Pree sident. The President to-day was visited by a number of aged who had assembled here during the past w days in anticipation of bis arrival. His regular business requiring attention, in order that he might depart this évening, interfered with the expecta- tions of many of the crowd. The cabinet dinner this evening was attended by all the secretaries present in the city, and was an interesting affair, The Pre- aldent will not return here again until the comple- tiot js stiMmer trip, unless business of import- ance calls him. Secretary Fisn will also ain ae as durlag {he stay of the present. ‘The Pre- sident, accompanied by Secretary Fis and General Porter, ieft here this evening on the ning 9’clock train for New York, ‘The Next Cabinet Meeting. The ‘next Cabinet meeting will be one specially called to take under consideration the questions artslug ont of the affairs of Cuba and the seizure of the Spanish gunboats. It will not take place until General Grant has finished bis visit to Kane, Pa, In the meantime all documents and reports bearing on (hose questions will be put in proper shape for final action. It isexpected that an official commupica- tion from General Sickles, containing the views of the Spanish government, will also be ready to lay before the President, The country may therefore expect to learn, in the course of ten days or a fort- night at furthest, the exact position of our govern- Ment in relation to the struggle for independence now going on in Quba. In the meanwhile that “much loved Spanish isle” gravitates to the United States, Misslssipp! Politico—The President Squarely Identified with the Republicans—He Op- poses tho Conservative Republican Move- mont—Hopeful View of Virginia Affairs. General Tarbell, secretary of the: Republican Ex- ecutive Committee of Mississippi, had an interview with President Grant at the residence of Secretary Fish, im New York, on _ the 6th inst. His object was to ascertain de- finitely the Prosident’s views on the political affairs in the Southern States, in Mississippi espe- cially, and algo to represent to him the present con- dition of parties there. So significant were the re- marks of the President that at the solicitation of leading republicans in Washington, to whom he has related tno conversation, General Tarbell has, im response to inquiries, given the substance of the President's opinions, as expressed on thatoccasion, General Tarbell, at the opening of the interview, said if an apology was deemed necessary for intruding on the President's privacy tt must be found in the nature of the business, which was to ask of the President and his administration some expression by act or declaration as to the par- ties in Mississippi, and to ask an early decision, as there was @ crisis in the condition of affuirs tn that State which definite action, showing the sym- pathy of tho ad jnistration, would greatly ald to a right solution, Some days since he (General Tar- bell) had, with the chairman of the Executive Com- mitteo and othets, visited Washington in order to explain their affairs, believing then, as now, that the President’s sympathies, as well as those of the Cabinet, were with the loyal party and in opposition to the one that sought only to divide and betray it. The President took up the conversation at {pis point, expr essing pleasure at the visit, entering tnto its purpose with sypir, showing his minute knowledge of tho situation in Mississippi. He remarked at the beginning upon the very small number of republicans who were engaged in what is termed the national republican party movement there. With regard to the special busi- ness pregep! him by Gener ‘agbell his assur- ances Sire eH and direct, 3 resident said that in his judgment the small number of those who had hitherto acted with the re- Pubitcan party and now constituted the so-called national republican party was in itself evidence that they could not be otherwise than used by the opposition. With regard to the recent professions made by those who were lately robels the President was emphatic and frank. tiis only desire was peace and amity, and he would do anything that was right to bring that about. But these people cast suspicions upon their own motives by the fact that all their efforts secm to be aimed at dividing, not aiding the republican party in their midst, If they were really in earnest they would not be anxious about those with whom they acted. To sincere men it could not be diMicult to tell who tn the South were and had been administra- tion friends. He talked at some leugth on the re- cent contest in Virginia. He thought from Governor Walker's speeches, since his election, that tliat gen- Ueman was fully committed to the administration, and was honestly intending to act up tothem. Re- ferring to the proposal made by Oolonel Jen- king to unite the two wings of the, Re publican party there, the President expressed regret at the apparent failure to accomplish so de- sirable an object, remarking that tho letter of Dr. Gilmer in reply showed that the followers of Walker Were not all in good faith. He stul hoped, how- ever, that good would come out of Virginia, but aid not at present exactly see how. The conversation lasted for about an hour and a half, and during the whole time most of it was carried on by the Preat- dent himself. The utmost frankness was displayed by him; and on General Tarbveil’s explaining his Gratitude for and gratification at the assurance given him by the President, replied that mn his conversation . with the gentlemen representing the new republican party in Mississippi, he had expressed himself much more emphatically against their course and policy than he was now doing. He declared positively that his sympathies were altogether with the republicans of Mississippi, and agatust all efforts to divide them, coming from whatever source they might. When it was suggested that great good might be accomplished and much wild specoiation set at rest if he would take occasion to put the views he had expressed into some form and give them to the public, the Presi- dent replied that he much preferred that acts and results should speak for his administration rather than words. To a question whether his afvention had been called to the despatches pretending tg give his views on sississippt atairg, ho replied That it had, but wast if he shoujd cory je, others, not denied, would be ciaim admitted, at to Correct all would cong ui whole time, Tye President Expressed thoréuji endorsement of General Ames’ administration in Mississippi, and in reply to @ remgr § made b ell, sald that Gener; would hayé oe @ fore he woyld subject himself jOvsl.

Union Express Rifled of Thelr Contonte—Baggagemon aud Express Messenger Severely Injured. | ALBANY, August 11, 1860, The baggage car of the Pacific Express of the New York Central Railroad, due here at two o'clock this morning, was entered at Fonda about mid- night by s gang of robbers ana robbed of ® large amount of money and valuables, The baggage car contained, in addition to the local baggage, two safes of the Merchauts’ Union Express Company, and w: charge of Charies Conklin, baghagdidh, ant We F. enti messenger of the Express Company. The first intt- agen these QMoials had of the presence of the in- trudeta Was when both were attacked with clubs and knocked down, Pistols were then presented to their heads and they were admonished if they “id not remain quiet they would suffer tnstant death. Both were then bound hand and foot and a gag placed in thelr mouths to prevent them from making any outcry. This done, the ringleader took the key of one of the safes from the pocket of the messen- ger, opened the safe and took out several bags of gold and silver coin. The robbers, cutting the open and scatter the contents w) the floor, appropriated to their own use what they wanted. While this was Seng: ip three of the gang succecded in removing the baggage, which ‘was piled up aeeines the dour leading to the first baggage car, which contained nothing but through baggage, and knocked the baggage master down, tied his hands behind him, ed him and sta- ttoned one of the party over him with a revolver, After rifling his pockets the leader returned to tue express car and acted the part of baggageman at Schenectady without being detected by the pone agent or conductor, both of whom 8] t the robbers, while the three ofiiciais of the baggage cars were tyi inside bound and ed. After leaving Schenectady rations on the safes, ‘est Albany &@ portion of the thieves went out on the platform of the car, pulled the bell cord and app! the brakes; the cara slowed up, but before they had come to a halt the engineer was told of his mistake and proceeded on, not, however, before the gang had left the train. The train reached here on time, and as soon a3 it arrived at the depot groans were heard emanating from the first baggage car. George Wilson, night dsspatcher; George W. Munger and two or three other employes of the company then entered the car and found Sells, the baggage- man, with his hands and feet tied, his month gagged and the blood streaming down his face from @ wound tn the Lead. On entering the second bag- gage oar Conklin was found i one corner and Beat- ue in the other, both being covered with blankets and each sufforlug great pain from wounds received upon the head. Conklin had @ severe gash near the left eye about two inches in length, and another on the back of the head. His garments were saturated with big own blood. Both he and Beattie were also suffering from the effects of pepper tarown into their eyes, and from chloroform, which had been applied them. it is impossible to estimate the exact amount of money and other valuables stolen, as the robbers took the precaution to destroy a largo number of the way ills, which were in the safe, it is believed several thousand doliars were stolen, Some of the way bills were found this Lycee | scatterea along the ine of the road between this city and Schenectady. It is believed that the robbery was committea by persons well acquainted with tne rules of \he railroad, else the perpetrators could not have 80 successfully avoided detection at Schenectady. Some believe that it was perpetrated by former em- ployés of the Central Railroad, Is is reported that two men were arrested to-day at Schenectady on suspicion of being tmplicated in the robbery. The police headquarters here are not in possession of any facts relating to the identity of the robbers. One of the baggagemen states that he should be able to identify the three who attacked him.
