On the 11th; the question as to whether the gov
ernment had resolved to withdraw the beßiger.
ent rights trim the South, of which notice had
been given by Mr. White. was not pat. The
Kerning Star assumes teem Mr. White having
been requested to postpone his citation, :hat the
question is under the considemtkire Of the Cabi
net, and observes:
'Though therwlthdtaial of belligerent rights
is no more a sentimental action, It would have
the effect of openingehe Australis,

the Government of the United . States will raise
the blockade and permit free Intercourse with the

Tkerifornine - Peet, In an editorial on the same
subject, says Mr. White postponed his question
in the absence of Lord Palmerston, but it Is an
questionably one to which an:answer must be tro
toedintely giver. The Pew says it is impassible
to avoid the conclusion:that-the Confederate•gor
erntnest l)aa ceased to exist: The South ceases
to be a belligerent when it no longer passesses
the means of prosecuting the:vear, and it has al
ready made admission to that acct. In the or IC,

In oppositiou to this,lie Mornisag Medd gives
remora that Mr Bruce complains or the Mill
catty of maintaining friendly relations with the
Washington government, and that Mr. Adams
has presented claims for losses bythe Alabama.
. The Daily Sena of the ISth, referring to the
store MateMelat by the Herald, says: Most pare

The Assembly opened with prayer. Rev. Dr.
Craven, of .New York, read the report of the
Preed;en'e Committee.
The committee approve the action ot the Ent.
erd end Western committees. • Two Important
questions had presented theniselyes to the com
mittee, on which they unanimously agreed.
Firet, whether the Assembly should continue to
conduct lie operations separately from the exist
ing Board. The committee recommend that a
separate agency should he continued. The
second question was, whether the Eastern and
Western Committees should be continued, or
that.both should be united Into one Board.. In
regard to this matter they recommend that the
committees should be united, and that two Sec.
coteries should be appointed—one for the East
ern and one for the Western Departments.
In relation to the establishment of a "Lincoln .
Idemendel College for Colored people, " the com
mittee recommend that no Immedia te action be
taken, and that the matter be referred to the
Committee on Freedmen.
The committee propose to establish a Board
on Freedmen, consisting of nine minister' , and
nine elders, with headquarters at Pittsburgh,
such - committee to have charge of the whole
matter, Including the care and (Retribution of the
'fonds, and also rules for government of the
Board. The committee suggest the following
named gentlemen to compose the Board: Rev.

of meeting the exigencies el grand epoch.
Dr. Breed said we bad pray ferthe breaking
down of the Chinese wall and e opening of the
gate of Vie Madagascar, and now the wall was
broken down and the gate opened. The North
did not . Intend It nor did anybody at the South.
,We only desired a restoration of the Union and
the old lug. We only thought of slavery as an
lecldeutat matter. The South did not desire it,
but wished to perpetuate slavery. lie regarded
I
the esunction of slavery as pro.vidential only.
I'o millions of shipwrecked 'p artners have
been thrown on our hands, and It is oar duty to
save them.
B . Mr. Logan, of Indiana, advised the d
ucat on of the freedmen, but believed that it
wee slow work, and we should take hold of It
with the conviction that It is not to be accent

Johnston, and response to the nine answers of
Secretary Stanton to Ma so called agreement

will coon appear, and with it the statement of
his case on the asthjmt alladed to. General
Sherman exhibits great feeling, and seems n
eedled to steno aloof from Secretary Stanton
and General Hallock. Secretary Stanton bears
himself with the equanimity that results from a
contelonsnees of having done nothing more than
his duty at an hour when the viola country was
agonized at the tore seapielon that the great
campaigns and services of Sherman had ended la
what at that moment looked like a most Inj urious
compromise with the foe. Gen. Sherman scourge
, was net objected to alone by President Johnson
sod the Secretary of War, but by every loyal
newspaper, and every loyal man thoughont the
country, and much of this feeling took public
form.•and et that time the prompt, Incisive, and
essential explanations at what looked liko the

assurance that the Government at Washington
