The Chicago Journal, extracting
from the Cincinnati Gazette touching
the unfortunate exhibition the new
Vice President made of himself, says
awe Join the Gazette in condemn
ing the Vice President for the unseen
ly state in which he presented himself
at the Inauguration. We were an eye
witness to the drunken exhibition, and
shared the shame and modification
felt by all present, that one SO highly
honored by the people should, on the
threshold Of his official duties, prove
himself SO unworthy and unfit to dis
charge them. ...... Az,
In view of the past history of Mr..
Johnson, and of the great services he
has rendered the country, we can ex-
cuse much that he might do. But for
his conduct on the occasion referred to
there is no excuse, and can be no palli-
alton. If such excuses are to be the
rule of his conduct hereafter, we hope
that he has manhood enough to resign
the high trust a contiding people have
placed in his hands, and retire to pri-
vate life. The country connot afford
to be thus dishonored, and incur the
risk of the dread alternative, in case
of the death or disability Of the Chief
Executive

back, coward and craven, meriting the
contempt of all mankind. As ana
ton, we were forced to accept battle,

sometimes stand aghast i would not

Extensively assumed, but would make
every citizen of the land obey the

we do-no worse, no better-our

you know, that there were young men
in our day, now no longer young, but
who control their fellows, who assn.
med to the gentlemen of the South a
superiority of courage and manhood,
and boastingly defed us of Northern
birth to arms. God knows how reluc-
family we accepted the issue, but once
the issue joined, like in other ages, the
Northern race, though slow to anger,
once aroused, are more terrible than
the more inflammable of the South
Even yet my heart bleeds when see
the carnage of battle, the desolation
of homes, the bitter anguish of fami-
lies but the very moment the men of
the South say that instead of appeal
ing to war they should have appealed
to reason, to our Congress, to our
courts, to religion, and to the expert
ence of history, then will l say peace

may, and may tell your mother and

and clear, you and all who knew Inc

were once dear friends. Tell Eliza fol
me that hope she may live to realize
that the doctrine of secession" is as
monstrous in our civil code as disobe
