Wendell Phillips Attacks the President.
Wendell Phillips, of Boston, the well
known leader Of the Stevens and Sum
ner radicals, delivered speech at the
Cooper Institute in New York city on
Wednesday evening last, in which he de-
noupced President johnson in very
strong and even coarse terms. We take
the following paragraphs from the WorWs
report of his performance
Going on with the same line of argu-
meut as in the former speech, be COM
menced his attacks on President johnson,
all of which were applauded. The Presi-
dent, be said, received the South Carroll
ma delegation with all the respect with
which delegation from that State could
ever have been received. They asked
him about jeff Davis. He said, "Of
course he may be tried, but there is cleu-
ency behind" In other words, "IIave
no tear for JEFF. | want him tried for
the sake Of appearances, but there is
clemency behind. Go home and have
no fear" There is nearly all the old de-
ference liz his manner to southerners. If
there is any thing that will make Presi-
dent Johnson knees knock together it is
the theory Of state sovereignty. Then tue
President goes out to regiment of ne
groes, and says: "Gentlemen Pho
he didn't say gentlemen; he made 10
no such laspus as that; lie said, May |
call you c0ptrymen?" [Laughtcr.] Well
I don't know whether he can, but know
every American ought. Tremendous ap.
plause ! lie then goes on to advise the
negroes. The Southerncrs didn't want
any counsel. They had lived for months
ON the charity Of the Government, but he
did not tell them, as he told the negroes,
to 60 to work. John q. Calhoun could
not have been soander on the subject of
State Sovereignty than Andrew johnson.
In talking to the negroes the strongest
southeruer could not have been sounder on
the question Of the impracticability ofthe
Two races living together on an equality.
He says, "NIay call you countrymen p
Andrew Jackson, who was made iu
different mould, years ago looked into the
faces of colored soldiers, and said, "Fellow
citizens" [Greas applausc.l The An

Mr.. Phillips, instead Of saying Good
grant that no Swift Or Jcrrold with his
immortal pen hold up that speech to
scorn and Indignation" put it in the af-
6rmative and said, zone hundred years
hence if that speech is remembered some
Dean Swift or Jerrold will hold it up with
his immortal pen to the scorn and contempt
of the ages" This was received with unan-
imous and long continued applause from
tie audience.
Mr.. Phillips repeated his statement
that the President was the most impudent
man in America, and this was received
with loud laughter and applause.
My charge against the President is
that he has debauched the moral sense of
the North on this question. loud ap-
pIause.) My charge against the Presi.
dent of the United States is that lie has ST.
fenced the Republican party on this ques.
ton. fit were possible aud consistent
with the nature of our government, now
is the time contemplated by the fathers
W hen such a magistrate should be i'm
peached Tremendous cheering. When
the cheering subsidized, two or three Kisses
were heard from the frightened Republi.
cans, aud those being continued, were
three several times drowned by great

Whas we want is an overwhelming
public sentiment to defy the despotism
and illegal action of the administration
{ Loud applause)--to arouse the cabinet
and Senate to their duty. Last March,
Charles Sumner found but eleven men TO
stand at his side. There has been moth
lns to occur during the summer to in
crease their number. Unless there is
something more of intelligence and pa
triotism to stand true to the nations
highest need beneath the outside of po-
litical organization, then, sure as fate, VIC
are to be robbed in politics of one-haf of
what we gained in battle, and our chill
dren are to refght this battc-anotber
civil war or another political struggle.
But Mr.. Phillips said he did not despair.
Abraham Lincoln could not baulk nor
Andrew johnson betray, as much as tho
nation has achieved. [Cheers.) This
revolution would have gained US tenfold
what it has if the Republican party had
put northcrncr, aud not southerner,
into the presidential chair. ...'
