Senator Patterson has represented the condition of Charleston harbor to the President, who, ii is said, has is sued an order to the Secretary of War, Betting -aside the amount required for the work. Hon Patrick Walsh, of the Augusta Chronicle & Constitutionalist, is here. A cable dispatch reports the 'death of Pay Inspector Edward Foster, Fleet Paymaster of the "European Squad ron. A New Orleans dispatch says : It appears that the members of the Com mission are very ' much divided in opinion as to . what course to pursue. The more conservative think they should not be expected to examine into any matters, save the situation of Louisiana. Others regard the Com mission in the light of a Board of Ar bitration. Two tf them deem' it high ly important that the work should be expedited and the Commission return to Washington as soon as possible. Messrs Harlan and Hawley think they should remain on the ground until the whole affair is adjusted. These gen tlemen still cling to the fusion legisla ture project, and express the opinion that no United States Senator will be admitted who is not elected by the full legislature, consolidated upon that basis. The Tribune's New Orleans dispatch Says : It may safely be stated that the majority, if not all of the members have been led by their inquiry, to the following conclusions : 1st. That the Packard government has the best, if not the only de jure title. If the returning board ' consti tutes a part of the machinery of elec tions, then Packard, his court; his offi cers and his legislature are the legiti mate products of that machinery. There is .room for fair doibts as to the constitutional power of that board to make up a legislature and to act judi cially on the Supreme Court decisions. Denying it the powers, that its return was binding, the Nicholls party has thus fax no right to build up a govern ment on their own doubts as ' to ,the constitutionality of the status under t which jth board acted. The question goes to tne Jfresiaent, nowever, not as legal,,, but, as a-" political one, and he may fairly satisfy himself and be gov erned" by his conclusions as to whether the hoard's acts were constitutional. 2d., -That the Nicholls government exercises complete de facto authority throughout the. State, in every acre of its Toii, except w&hin the walle bf the old hotel, used by Packard as a State House, The assertions of Packard, that in'' many heavy negro parishes he is recognized, have not been verified. teputao:e gentlemen, oi dou parties, having come in from these parishes to aseure the CommissionHhat the Nich olls? administration - meets with no more opposition in- these localities theninJiewQrieaG Packard's tate- ment that nearly all the Circuit Judges in the State recognizes him, has heen found to ' rest solely, on the fact: that these Judges were commissioned; by Kellogg,' and is disproved by baths of Secretary of State. ! It is ; literally' true thatFackard is a priaoneyn the State House', and that his' claims are actual ly1 supported jby;'. nobody in Louisiana, except tne meniDers oi nis government and .two, or three 'hundred guards, wh bm h eis f eedjng andpay ing,no doubt. The negroese!iever in his right, and want it 'enforced, but they will not raise a finger to aid him,: while the white population is in; active and de termined hostility, to his pretensions. 3d. That the Nicholls administration maintaining order throughout .the State; and protecting the rights'of both races, r ana tnat peace , auu prooijciw would result from its continuance. -4th That the Packard ' administra tion'caniiot be established by a simple recognition on - the part , of the Presi dent, Dut ,oniy vyt vo -ubo ..oi igo force of the Federal troops : to v crush 6ut the . acting" government, and the TYiAintainance of a earrison in the State during the whole of Packard's term. ".' ':: . .. i' ' . Further that if this course were praticable, it would involve a continu ance of the race conflict, social and in dustrial disturbances and the business depression which - characterized the Kellogg administration. Note. It is thought that the above is the substance of the communication to the President. Gen Humphrys declines to give any information as to what has been done, or is proposed to be done in the matter of a harbor appropriations. It is reliably ascertained that the Louisiana Commissioners, in their ong cypher dispatch to the President yesterday, circumstantially warrants the result of their conferences with Nicholls and Packard, the respective Supreme Court Judgie&nd other par ties interested. They say they find the. Nicholls party are not disposed to make any concessions, but will main tain their government in the belief and hope that ultimately, as in the case of Hampton, in South Carolina, they will have full and unobstructed possession of the Louisiana State government. The Packard parly are ready to en ter into arrangements for a joint legis lature, to determine the pending ques tions, but this being rejected by the Nicholls party, the Packard party ask the President to determine which is the legal State government. In addition to the above, it can be Stated that the President-declines to act upon this request, as under present circumstances he would not be justified in making a decision, owing to the dis agreement of the Nicholls and Packard parties, aud the unpromising prospect of an agreement. The Commissioners ask for further instructsnns. The tele gram from the Commissioners was laid before the Cabinet, and read at length, and gave rise to a general interchange of opinions during the day. As the re sult of the Cabinet deliberations, fur ther instructions will be sent to the Commissioners. midnight. Washington, April 13. The following interesting informa with regard to Mr Stephen?' health and his views in regard to matters vitally affecting the South, is gathered from a conversation with Mr Walsh, who vis ited the Georgia .statesman this morn ing: "Hon Alex H Stephens is im proving, his appetite is good, he is able to sit up nine hours daily. He will not return home until after the extra session of Congress, which will be call ed by the President in June ;he hopes to be able to take an active part in its deliberations. He will advocate gov ernment subsidy to the Texas Pacific Railroad; he thinks that it is the grand est project now before the country, and that it should receive aid from Con gress. lneboutni8 especially inter ested in the construction of the road and thewhole country will be benefit ted by it. It is not a party but a na tional measure, and should be built as a work of vital importance to tie inter est of the whole country. The South will be materially benefitted by it. Mr Stephens thinks that the bill can be so framed as to protect the govern ment from loss ; he regards the Southern Pacific as one of the grand est projects now before the coutry. Mr Stephens speaks hopefully of the future of the country. Personally he thinks well of President, Hayes; he likes his record : he believes that the President will carry out his policy of peace and good will to the South ; he considers that ihe solution of the South Carolina troubles which has resulted in the paci fication of South Carolina, and the re storation of home rule and goed gov ernment under Gov Hampton will lead to like results in Louisiana by the re cognition of Nicholl s government. He considers President Hayes fully com mitted to this policy, and believes that he will use all legitimate means in his power to carry it into execution, and thus aid in restoring peace to all sec tions of the republic. He considers that President Hayes has a grand op portunity and that he ought to elevate himself lo a plane entirely above party and by so doing he will inaugurate peace and prosperity in a country al ready too long distracted and depress ed by political excitement and party bitterness. He thinks that Congress will heartily second. President Hayes in his efforts to give the South good government. Additional instructions not yet fully azreed upon .
