ANDREW JOHNSON.
THE RECORD OF HIS PUBLIC LIFE.
Further Extracts freM Speeches De-
Iivered by Him.

Upon the propositions to amend the constr
tuition to change the mode of election of the
president and vice president from the elector-
al college to vote directly by the people :;
that the senators shall be elected by the PEG
pie for six years, and not by the Legislatures /;
and that the supreme court shall be divided
into two classes, Mr.. johnson Dec. 18, 1861
said:
"Mr. President if these amendments had
been made, or the constitution had been in
the shape now proposed, / think the difficult
ties that are now upon the country would heye
been obviated. 1t would have been required
that either the president or the vice president
should be taken from the south. That would
have destroyed to some extent the sectional
character of our recent election The next
provision of the amendment would require
the votes cast for president and vice .presi.
dent to be cast by districts; and if we are to
take as an indication the returns to the house
OF representatives a majority of twenty. seven
against the incoming administration. Il is
pretty conclusive that president differing
in politics and sentiments from the one who
has been recently elected would have been
chosen. Each district would have voted di.
rectly for the president and vice-president Of
the United States. The individual having a
majority o. the votes in that district would he
considered as receiving one electoral vote,
ust as we count the votes of one mem Der for
congress. Hence, if all the votes in these r..
