sEk-Lsst night the citizens Of Missouri now In
Washington procured the services OF Dodswofth's
hne band accompanying the New York Seventy
first regiment, and complimented Hon. Andrew
johnson, Of Tennessee with a fne serenade, TO-
Qether with an address from them lauding his
efforts In the support Of the Union, and pledging
him the support and esteem OF every MlssouIlan:
which be stepped out upon the porch and ad-
dressed The crowd assembled In the street The
add ess which had been just read, together with
the circumstances under which he was placed,
rendered him incom petent tn reply either 40 his
heart would prompt or his judgement approve
In Tennessee, as in most Of the seeded states,
rsisn Of serro, had BEEN gotten up ~, Ths sssa
had been denied them, and they had been down.
trodden and overrun by petty tyrant. This had
never been felt here nor In the North or West,
and II was not hard to be a Union man In either
Of these place. But In the South or Southwest
to be Union man was to risk the loss Of life,
property, and all that is dear to man.
In his own State army was got up TO help the
seeded States Three thousand ofacers were sent
about through the state, to drum up recruits ana
aid in the nefarious business IL the privilege Of
speech had been allowed In Tennessee, she
would still be in the Union, and he vet he
Neved that the time would come when the stars
and stripes would be unfurled from every court
house and cross road In the state IL the Union
men Of his State had assistance, they would per-
form the principal part Of the work In restoring
the authority Of the government. There had been
much said Of a war Of determination between the
North and South He had travelled extensively
in Northern States, and he bad never heard such
a sentiment uttered The North Yves not willing
10 injure the South but they had declared that
in the Union they would stand by them and hold
up their Institutions, with the point Of the bay
onet, IL necessary Ii was his honest opinion that
II the Southern Confederacy was established, 1t
would change Its present form, and become a
monarchy.
Mr. johnson then reviewed the course Of the
democratic party, and their knavery In making
the election Of President Lincoln an excuse for
breaking up the Government They had a ma.
jority In Congress, and Mr. Lincoln could not
have appointed his Cabinet. foreign minister
or consul, or even have drawn his salary, without
tier consent. He was In favor okany plan that
would afford permanent peace and harmony to the
land; but he did not believe peace would be
restored until the rebellion was put down and
traitors punished.
In closing, he fully Endorsed the course of Preei-
dent Ltrcoln and said that he only retted that
the Executive had not done more. IL was not a
war Of the North or South, but for the Unien, and
he wanted no better plan Of compromise than the
Constitution OF Washington, Of Jefferson and
Msdison.
Returning his thanks for their compliment, Mr..
Johnson concluded by urging them TO stand by
the flag until 10 was made to wave again over the
tombs Of Washington and Jackson and the
authority Of the Government respected throughout
the lsnd.
