A year ago Richmond was entered by our vic.
torious soldiers, and the rebellion tottered to its
fall A few days later and no army remained to
resist the eagles of the Republic. The President
has fifty selected the anniversary Of the great Gull
minatng event Of the to proclaim the fact that
peace is restored and that the great instruction is
ended.
The proclamation Is long, but 1t will be read with
interest, as a summary Of the prominent military
and political declarations of the last Ave years. and
as formal enunciAtion of the great fact that has
so long been partially recognised BY the people
Tho proclamation is sign of a return to a healthy
and normal condition Of affairs and we most earn.
estly trust that those who have so long found use
for illegal and unwarrantable modes of dealing with
the people, will now be content with the methods
pointed out by the Constitution, sustained BY the
law and made obligatory by the fundamental pria.
ciples which lie at the base of our institutions.
It has often been said that larger and wiser
statesmanship would be required to restore genuine
peace and real harmony To the country than was
necessary to conduct the operations Of gigantic
war. The events Of the year prove this Partisan
wrangling and personal ambition, measurably
hushed in the clash of arms, have suddenly put on
new strength, and grown to monstrous and dan.
gerous proportions.
The peril Of this hour Is not less than that Of any
of the darkest hours Of the war, and never in our
history wisdom, Cancellation, and true repub.
licansm more necessary than now. As we approach
the solemn anniversary Of the death of our martyr
President let catch the inspiration of his last
message, and with charity for all and malice
toward none, with hrmness In the right let US
strive on to finish the work We are in"
Before the vast issues Of the future the petty
schemes and plans of individuals are as nothing,
and those only will have an apotheosis in American
history, who proved to act with honesty of pur.
pose and true patriotism In the turbulent scenes of
the present day.-N y Commercial ode.

THE GREAT JOHNSON MASS
MEETING.

The simple announcement that the loyal
people of this city would meet in council to
sustain the policy of President JOHNSON, called
out thousands Of our best citizens, and the
vast space in front of the City Hall was
packed solid with sincere and patriotic men.
This grand gathering Of our people was not
due to cannon, drum and fife, torch-light pa
rade, engineering, or management. It was
hearty and spontaneous rally Of the people
Like its contemporary, the great meeting at
Cooper Institute, which was addressed by
Secretaries SEWARD and DENNIsoN, this assem-
blage was essentially Union affair, gathered
to hear Union speakers, and responding to
Union sentiments. No one connected with
its organization had any other than sound
Union antecedents. Each of the distinguished
gentlemen who spoke, voted and labored for
the election of ABRAHAM LINCOLN and An
DREW JOHNSON in 1864 The addresses
breathed spirit of earnestness and unmis-
taxable loyalty, and pleading again, as here
tofore, for the noble principles which had
been indicated both at the ballot-box and on
the battlefield, the eloquence of patriotism
stirred the concourse to the utmost bounds
Of enthusiasm. The resolutions are to the
point, and the number of those who approve
them in this country is legion.
We regard this meeting as a significant
demonstration in favor of The PRESIDENTS
policy within the Union ranks. A voice has
gone out from the Capital rallying the sup
porters of the war on the Baltimore platform,
around the honored principles which they
have made national by success The people
do not forget their own deliberate acts within
two years. they will respond again, as they
never failed to respond in upholding the Con
situation and the supremacy of the laws.

,DUE TO THE PRESIDENT AND
TO TRUTH

For weeks the vilest abuse imaginable has
been poured out upon The President
by journals in the interest of his maligners,
based upon declaration made Immediately
after President JOHNSON vetoed the Freed
mems Bureau bill, to the effect that it was
read to him, section by section, before it
passed the two Houses; that he agreed to its
several provisions, and after doing so DELHI
erately vetoed it. Major General HOWARD
was named in the false reports as the gentle
man who personally submitted the bill to
The President for his inspection.
Now, after time enough has elapsed to en-
able the falsehood to reach Europe, greatly
to the injury Of The PRESIDENT the truth is
made known that The PRESIDENT did not do
tohat ,UaS alleged. Major General Howard,
whose letter Oh the subject follows, makes a
statement of the facts, giving the lie to the
infamous maligners of TIE PRESIDENT:

Your denial Of having said to Gov Brownlow
that you and read the bill to the President is i'm

THE ELECTION ON THE aIst.

We have learned that there has been
some discussion held, and that two opinions
exist in regard to the election ordered by the
Governor for the vacant seats in the Legis-
lature. BY one side it is maintained that it
should, will and could be held under the
general ticket system, l. G., the names Of all
candidates TO be placed on one ticket and the
polls TO be opened all over the State by the
other, that each county elects its own repre-
sentative as done prior to the Convention of
January, 1865.
The latter opinion is undoubtedly the
correct one. The general ticket system was
for the special occasion Of the 4th March,
1865. All the elections TO ill vacancies
since that time have been confined TO the
county in whose representation it occurred,
and the Governors proclamation for the
election on the Slst inst, is addressed to the
sherifs only of those counties whose rep
resentation is held TO be vacant. If the
officials had intended the election TO be
general throughout the State, the PROCLAIM
ton would have 80 stated distinctly.

ANOTHER GROSS ISLANDER.

The Radical journal, supported in our
midst for the simple purpose, apparently, Of
reviling our people and invoking upon them
every conceivable injury, represents the re-
cent fire in Centerville, Hickman county,
and which resulted in the burning of all the
records Of the Office of the County Court
Clerk, as the work of rebel incendiaries. 1t
farther informs us that DR.. Pickett, the
Clerk, has arrived in the city and asked for
military protection in the discharge of his
duties. He states that the lives of the coun-
ty officers who are loyal, owing to faithful
registration, are continually endangered by
the rebels"
A gentleman Of undoubted integri-
", direct from Centerville, informs us
that this Islander Is without founda-
ton. That the fire when first discov-
cred was in a portion of the building that
could not have been reached by any one but
the occupant, Pickett, himself; and that it
was evidently the result Of accident. We
are informed. furthermore, that there is not
a more orderly people in the State, and that
there is not the slightest disposition to in
terfere with any one for differences during
the war.
We have been intimately acquainted with
the people of Hickman county for many
years. 4 more sober, industrious and law
abiding community does not exist in the
State. Previous 10 the war it was the
pride of these people that they paid their
taxes more promptly, and had smaller
criminal docket, than any county in the
State. They always had natural repug-
nance 90 mean and dirty men. We may
well suppose, therefore, that Dr." Puckett
does not feel much at home in their midst
