lNCENDIARY SPEECH OF WIN. LLOYD GAR
RIsoN.-Mr. William Lloyd Garrison de-
nYered discourse Tuesday evening the
Brooklyn Academy of Music on the political
questions of the'day, including the Presidents
reconstruction policy and recent speech. The
Presidents policy was denounced In severe
terms, and Mr.. johnson was charged with at
tempting coup d'etdt by the expulsion of Con-
gress and the introduction of members from
the Southern States, even al the point of the
bayonet, If he dare. He declared that for the
speech of the President in its Z" indecency,
bombast, malignity, and reasonable leaning
there are no words titly TO characterize it, And
be thinks that for this and other weighty rea-
sons, he ought TO be indicted by that grand in
quest, the United States House of Represen-
tatives, tried by the Senate, and for the peace
and safety of the country dismissed from Of
fice." For sustaining the President he calls
Mr.. Seward ''fallen LucIfer," and declares
that it had been better for the Secretary that he
had died beneath the stabs OF the assassin than
TO have lived TO forward the views ofthe Presi-
dent.
