AsEl.R EnuCATKn Man.

The Hon. Andrew johnson, whose cleo
ton to tho U. S. Senate by the Legislature
of Tennessee, we noticed few days since,
could neither read nor write at the age Of
eighteen, and exercised the trade of tailor.
While working in Greenville, he became o
member Of q debating club, ut the meetings
of which he displayed considerable talent.
Subsequently he was elected to the Legisla-
ture, and has since filed the Office Of Cover
nor OF Tennessee, and is now U. s. Senator.
While working at his trade as . journey
man tailor he fell in love with girl and pro-
posed to her. She engaged herself to him,
provided she could get her mothers consent.
Andy went one sunday to speak to the old
lady. His heart failed him till toward night.
when he mustered up courage and popped
the question to the mother. lie says she
broke ont on him in q most terrible TRADE Of
abuse, and said, "you trifing, wothless vag-
abond, do You suppose am gong to let my
daughter marry q wandering journeyman
tailori know what you want. You are toe
lazy to work, and you are after my property!
The governor said the old woman had foul
children and three negroes. This was heI
fortune. In utter despair, Andy returned to
the village, mortified and crest fallen. lie
determined TO quit the place and forget his
love, after meeting with such scorn and con-
tempt from the mother.
Thus, the girl who might have been thu
wife of Governor and U. s. Senator is now
probably, tho wife Of some poor unknown
mantle victim of parental fastidiousncss
