MUSIC OF THE SOUL. There's music, music everywhere, Within the conch-shell's lip. And in the sweet blue harebell, where The bees and humbirds sip. There's music in the bursting buds, The sunny birds of spring. When rising sap beneath the bark. New life seems gathering, And when the bending, waring grass Sounds like the distant sea, As gentle breeses o'er it pass, Singing half noislessly ; And in the bounding rivulet, Which rushes down the hill, As when it winds beneath the sod, And mortals, think it still. There's music in the wild wave's roar, The mighty sounding deep. And music when the storm is o'er. And the ocean sinks to sleep. Musis, sweet music, with the birds, The happy living things ; And sportive insects fluttering Shake music from their wings. There is musicunheard music, In the falling of the snow; Each silent thing in nature Doth some sweet music know. There's music, music everywhere. Above, below, around ; In earth, air, water, day and night, Its heaven-born strains abound. Beauty is music to the eye, As love is to the heart; Children ! is there no mugio for Our holier better part? A GOSVEESATIOff WITH PEESIDEJfT J02NS02T. His Policj on Eeconstruction.

Medford, Masa., Oct 8, 1805, xjr.A.a. oiti : a was so uiuctt liuurtss- cd with our conversation ot" last Tuesday, that I returned iiu mediate! v to mv rnnm and wrote down such ot the points made as l could-remember, and having pondered them all the way home, am to-day, more tnan ever, convinced that it corrected by you and returned to me for either public or private use, it will go tar to promote a good understanding between you and our leading men. It will also unite the public mind in favor oi your plan, so tar r.t least as you would carrj' it out without modification. l ou are aware that 1 do not associate much with men in political life, but rather with tho.se who, representing the advanced moral sense of the country, earnestly labor for the eood of our people, wit hout hope or even desire for offi. e or other immediate re ward.

The report is meager and unsatisfactory, but I think it conveys, for the. most part. tne spirtt or our conversation, therefore, al though the whole tenor of your words led me to beheve it was not intended to be kept private, I have retrained trom answering the specific inquiries of anxiouj friends, whom I met on my way home, let I might, in some way, leave a wrong impressiou on their minds. Truly your friend. Geo. L. Stearns. The President of the United States. Washington, D. C. .Oct. 3 1 1 1 a.m. l have just returned trom an interview with I resident Johnson, in which he talked for an hour on ths process of reconstruction of rebel States. 11 is manner was as cordial, and his conversation as free, as in 1863, when I met him daily in Nashville. Ills countenance is healthy, even more so than wheu 1 hrst knew him. 1 remarked, that the people of the North were anxious that the process ot reconstruc tion should be thorough, and they wished to support him in his arduous work, but their ideas were confused by the conflicting re ports constantly circulated and especially by tne present position ot the .Democratic Earty. It is industriously circulated in the emocratic Clubs that he was goiug over to them, lie laughingly replied: 3Jaior. have you never known a man who tor many years had differed from your views because you were in advance of him, claim them as his own when he came up to your stand point?" 1 replied, 1 have often, lie said, feo have and went on : "the Democratic party nods its old position untenable, and is com ing to ours ; it it has come up to our position am glad ot it i ou and 1 need no prepa ration tor this conversation : we can talk freely on this subj'ect, for the thoughts are familliar to us ; we can be perfectly frank with each other." He then commenced with saying that the States are in the Union, which is whole an! indivisible. Individuals tried to carry them out, but did not succede, as a man may try to cut ;is throat and be prevented by the bystan ders, and you cannot say he cut his throat because he tried to do it Individuals may commit treason, and be punished, and a large number of individu als may constitute a rebellion and be pun ished as traitors. Some States tried to get out of the Union, and we opposed it, honest ly, because we believed it to be wrong, and we have succeeded in putting down the re bellion. The power of those persons who made the attempt has been crushed, and now we want to reconstruct the State Gov ernments and have the power to do it The State institutions are prostrated, laid out on the ground, and they must be taken up and adapted to the progress of events ; this can not b don) in a moment We are making very rapid progress, so rapid, I cannot sometimes realize it ;it appears like a dream. e must not be in too much of a hurry ; it is better to let them reconstruct them selves than to force them to it; for if they go wrong, the power is in our hands and ore can check them at any stage, to the end, and oblige them to correct their errors ; we must be patient with them. I did riot ex pect to keep out all who were excluded from the Amnesty, or even a large number of them, but I intended they should sue for pardon, and so realize the enormity of the crime they had committed. You could not have broached the subject of equal suffrage at the North seven years ago, and we must remember that the changes at the South have been more rapid and they have been obliged to accept more un paiaiauie irutn man tne mortn has; we must give them time to digest a part, for we cannot expect such large affairs will be comprehended and digested at once. We must give them time to understand their new position. 1 have nothing to conceal in these mat ters, and have no desire or willingness to take indirect courses to obtain what we want. Our Government is a grand and lofty structure; in searching tor its foundation we find it rests on the broud basis of nnnn t m a - lar rignts. I he elective franchise is not uaiurai ninu, vui a political riirnt. 1 am . 1 ' m. I .

If I interfere with the vote of the Rebel otates, to dictate that the negro shall vote. I might do the same thing for my own pur pons in Pennsylvania. Our only safety lies in allowing each State to control the nclit oi voting oy its own laws, ana we have the 1 u power to control the liebel States it they go wrong. It they rebel we have the army. and control them bv it, and, if necessary, by legislation also. It the General Govern ment controls the right to vote in the States, it may establish such rules as will restrict the vote to a small number of persons, and tlius create a central despotism. My position here is different from what it would be if 1 was in Tennessee. Ihere I should try to introduce netrro snf- iraf:e grauuaiiy. nrst those who have served . - in the army ; those who could read and write,and perhapsa pronertvaualification for others say $200 or S250. It would not do to let the nesrocs have universal suffrage now : it would breed a war of races. . There w; s a time in the Southern States when the slaves of large owners looked down upon non-slaveowtiers because they did not own slaves; the larger number of slaves their masters owned, the crouder thev were. and this has produced hostility between the mass of the whites and the negroes. The outrages aro mostly from non-slaveholdm whites against the negro, and from the ne gro upon the non-slaveholding whites. Ihe netrro will vote with the late master whom he does not hate, rather than with the non-s'aveholdinff white, whom he does late. Universal suffrage would create a nothcr war, not against us, but a war of races. Another thin?. This Government is the fieeest and the best on the earth, and I feel sure is destined to last ; but to secure this, we must elevate and purify the ballet. I for many years contended at the South that Slavery was a political weakness, but others said it was political strength ; they thought we gained three-fifths representation by it, 1 contended that we lost two-fifths. If we had no slaves, we should have had twelve representatives more, according to to the then ratio of representation. Con gress apportions representation by S tates not districts, and the State apportions by dis: tricts. Many years aoro, I moved in the Legisla ture that the apportionment of Representa tives to Congress, in lennessee, should be by oxxaliSed voters. The apportionment is now fixed until le72 ; before that time we might change the basis of representation from population to qualified voters, iNorth as well as fcouth, and in due course of time, the States, with out regard to color, might extend the elec tive franchis3 to ail who possessed certain mental, moral, or such other quantisations. as might be determined by an enlightened public judgment Bostox, Oct. 18. 1865. The above report was returned to me by President Johnston with the following en dorsement George L. Stearns. I HAVE READ THE WITHIN COMMONICA- TIONAND FIND IT SUBSTANTIALLY CORRECT.

To the Secretaries of the State Cnt Committee, Messrs. Ilamersly and Benedict, me ujyai uiu-u oi irennsyivania are under lasting obligations. Lpon them devolved arduous and responsible duties.

To an tne true and laithlul men ot the State, who so effectually discharced their dut.ies. and made our triumph easy as well as over whelming, our most earnest aiid hearty inariKs are extcnuea. The defeat of our opponents is thoronsrli ana disastrous, lo them it was unexpected 1,- m ., , -- although well merited.

When we were silent, thay clam orously and imperiously demanded ourviews. H lien we spoke they charged that it was "puerile invective." They told their fol- owers that we were endeavoring to turn their flanks," and called lu.tibyupcn them to pierce our centre. Some of them retir ed with both flanks turned and their centre pierced. 1 he balance were made prisoners. Last year thev assured their follswersthat the election had been carried at the point of the layonet; that the military rub had in terfered with the freedom of the election. and that our co mtry was fast verging to wards a military despotism. That shallow pretext cannot avail them now. bunnortinsr soldiers, thev became the champions of deserters and refugees from the draft. To rally their desnoudin? and disheartened forces thev proclaimed that our President had become a convert to their views. I hey well knew the opinions of those who had elected him, and the princi ples o. the platform upon which he stood. Vet they would gladly have induced him to abandon his friends and his principles in or der that they might be restored to power. The spirit of Slavery, Secession and State sovereignty had assassinated one President within the last six months, and was striving to demoralize and steal another. Ihe ex pen men t tailed ; the effort to make it has been ternbiy rebuked by the people, and the result is the complete demoralization and overthrow of those who dared to mis represent our Chief Magistrate in order to promote the success of their sinking cause. The oft-repeated and well-established trut h of history has again been vindicated. No man, in any country, can take sides against his Government when engaged in war, whether foreign or domestic and retain the confidence and respect of his fellow citizens after the termination of the war. Either the party which antagonizes the Govern ment must go down or the nation must per ish. Our nation is too young to die. Those who opposed our armies on the field of bat tle have been defeated. The partv whose leaders opposed the prosecution of our war for national existence have been beaten at the ballot-box. Our people have just riven another of the hiirhest proofs ot the fact that "man is capable of self-government " The people at the ballot-box. havs dflar- ed their adherence to the principles which were made triumphant bv the skill and braveiy of American officers, soldiers and seamen amid the - storm of battle. Let all good Union men continue to be faithful and true to the cause of their country and all will be well. The nation purified by the fiery ordeal through which it has lately pas sed, will start upon a new era of progress. The enemies of free Government will everywhere respect and fear our greatness and power, and the down-trodden and op pressed of every clime will seek and find an assylum ia our midst.

Important Correspondence. x nc omciai jjonaon uazette publishes an inportant correspondence between Mr. Ad ams and Jiarl llussell concerning the dep- radations committed bv the Shenandoah Mr. Adams gives once more notice that the United btateswili holdGreat Britain resign sible for all the damages caused by these Anglo-llebel cruisers. Earl Russell, as in former replies, insists that Engi md has not lolated any international law. and. there fore, is not responsible for the rebel cruis ers. In a second letter, Larl Russell men tions a statement made in a letter from Mr. Adams in April. 1863. as to the Govern ment of the United States being realvtore- fer these disputes to arbitration, and h echnes to accept this offer. The only con cession .fc,arl ltussell is willing to make is the ppomtment of a Commission to which hall be referred all claims arising during he lute civil war. which the two powers mi.ui aree io reiario tne uominissioners. The final reply of Mr. Adams, dated Sep tember IS, is very serious in its tone. and ex- Iiresses the opinion that the proposal of Earl lussell will not be accepted bv the United States. Mr. Adams in this last reply,again calls ti e attention of the English Govern ment to the fact that if its doctrines and practices are allowed to become the rule, the United States will not be the greatest lo wers. The London papers which editorially refer to the correspondence speak of the im portance ot the international questions to be settled in this dispute, but do not appear to expect any serious complications between the two counti ies to arise therefrom.
