Thomas Mast again occupies two
pages of ITdrpcT'S Weekly with one of
his strong and telling protests against
Andy johnson and his policy of recon-
Struction.
The two chief figures are those of the
President. dressed in the common stage
costume of IagU, and by his side is a
tall, manly, colored soldier. The sol
dier'S right hand rests i'll sling, and is
wrapped in bandHges, which bind up "A
recent wound. In his left hand he car
ries his discharge papers. signed by
the General of the armies OF the Repub-
lie. He Is turning to the Oily Cannon
by his side with unConcealed surprise
and honest indignation, as the latter,
with upraised hand and sanCtimonious
look, pours honeyed words into his
ear. Underneath are these words:
OthelIo.-Dost thou mock me?
lago.-I mock you, No. by Heaven
Would you could bear your fortunes like IA
man.
And at the right of the two fig
ures are we'll known promises made in
days when the Tennessee politician
was seeking power, promises which
none remember better than the dark
skinned hero who stands by his side.
Treason is a crime and must be pun
ished, "LOve thine enemies," "I am
your Noses" these are among the le-
genuS on the wall.
AT the left hand of the Presidential
IaEo is the record which he has made for
himself during the last year. Nctoes to
Union men without number are scat
tered out, and pardOns TO unrepentant
rebels.
Below is another view of the Presi-
dent, this time in the character of IA
snake Charmer, sitting Cross-legged on
his cushion, and with the same repul-
sfE iV,G Tnr ~,
He has pipe, labeled constitution, in
his hand, and is playing strange airs to
two snakes before him, one OF which
the Copperhead, has coiled about the
legs of IA negro. and is dnrting its his
sing head hither and thither, whilc the
other, secession, has twineu its louth-
some folds about the negro's BODY, and
Is turning its head in obedience to the
wierd strains toward its struggling vic
tim. Close by, and gazing at the tor
tUred man, stand the servants of the
snake charmer. Seward is looking
with manifest approval at the sight,
while Welles looks on. apparently un-
concerned. Mr.. Stanton is in the back
ground, hardly daring to turn away,
and yet his staring frightened looks in
dicate n horror Rt the sight.
In the upper and opposite corners of
the sheet are graphic representations OF
the atrocities at Memphis and New Or
leans. In the midst of blazing dwell
lings and school-houScs, with rebel
flags floating over them, needless of the
prayers for mercy, Southern men, who
find quick defenders in Monroe and
Heron and Voorhees,, are shooting
down colOred men, women and child
ren, and committing nameless Outrages
on the dead and dying.
Two more scenes complete the story.
On the one side is General Butler, with
the old flag before him, receiving the
submission and sword of CONQUERED
traitor, who bends low with conscious
guilt as he enters the room of Union
General. Undernenth,is 1852. On the
other hand, in "A room whose decorn-
tiOns are II taLtered rebel banner and
painting of Lee and his Generals, is n
proud, defiant rebel, Heron, tho Attor-
ney General Of Louisiana, and before
him stands in low humility Phil. SherI-
dan, awaiting the orders of the par.
dOned traitor. Below is 1866.
No loyal man can look at these
scenes without feeling his check flush
with shame. They show more plainly
than any words can tho weakness, the
enormous guilt of "my policy"
