The Vice President Of the uni
Ted Stntes--The Eind Of 9saR
tslat was Elected 10 that Pc
sstiOn by the ''S9d and EaE-
THsssDity" Party.
We direct the attention Of our readc;s,
and especially Of those men calling them
selves ministers Of the Gospel to the
following articles taken from the New York
Tribune, Cincinnati Commercial and Cincin
natl Gazette, concerning the drunkenness Of
that notorious yagabond, Andrew johnson,
when he was inauguratcd on the 4th Of
March, 1866, Vice President Of the United
S,ates-the second Office in the gift of the
american people. We ask th2so men to
read these articles carefully, and lock lack
al the deception they practiced upon the
people, through the pulpit and their press,
when they urged them to vote for this An
drew JOHNSON for Vice President, while it
was notoriOusly known that this same An
johnson was in the regular habit Of getting
drunk. He was drunkard when the other
model Of perfection, in their estimation
Abraham Lineoln-appointed him Militia,
,y Governar of Tennessee, and he was still
drunkard when nominated for Vice Prcsi
dent by the party that Processes to lave all
the loyalty, religion, humanity and morals
there is in the country, and he still remains
& drunkard when inauguroted Vice Prcsi-
dent.
The papers from which tho following ar
ticIes are copied, were all warm and ardent
supporters of this notorious aruukard, An
dew johnson, for the Vice Presidency, and
vhatthey say about his drunkenness on the
day he was inaugurated, will show the
american people the kind Of man that
has been elected to the second Office in their
aift, in great measure through their in
btrumentality.s ri- -E .-. a..--#

1.-The speech of Andrew johnson was,
4,Nc ha RI ltn als6
tarly inaEpropriatc harangue that ever tei
from the lips Of }ice President OF the
United States. His manner was that Of 0
stump orator, and his language such as VIC I
he unworthy Of even an ordinary ward poll
tician His peculiar int0nati0n aud ethe
mence of his manner, arrested the attention
OF all who were in the galleries; all1 at tht
conclusion Of his address there were nuner'
ous expression Of indignation that an officer
elevated to 80 high a position BY the Will o.
the people should stOop SO low as to vent
personal spleen on his own count ym1n, IL
the presence OF the distinguished repFesen
tatives of European Couu7. And Mr.
johnson did not stop thore. lie even took
fae liberty-@-an understandable liberty N ofIG
who was not yet legally entitled to address
the Senate, for the oath had not yet beer
administered to hini--he ev,n took the lib
erty OF calling the attention Of the DlpIo-
matic Corps to the wild and furious speech
he was then making; and esaid he wanted
fhe Senate, the people, and tho minister
sh pieaent TT uD4o,setstrd that he Andrew
John sorl, stood there to announce that fen
nessee WAS u free State, AMI then intiplated
ve,y broadly that Tennessee was personifed
iniAndrew Johnson. RI announce here to-
day, y was repeated at least twenty time:
during the twenty m'nut = lAi used by Mr..
Johson, and there Slts a geueral rtliet fell
throughout the Senate when lac concluded
his undigniiied and Yituperative speech. Il
was almost impossible to follow Mr. John
son IN his very strange ltarangue. At once
moment his voice would swell untileit couio
he distinctly heard in the lobby aud on the
stairs leading to the gailery--not in the so
norious tones of orator hut IN wild back
woods Shont--and as suddenly drop so low
rs to be ih:udble in the reporters gallery
immediately above where he stood.
The 4rtbaaeS correspondent, on account
Of his crcessi:e n,odesty, draws. it some.
what mild about the drunkenness Of John.
son on the day he Was inaugurated, but the
