Close following up on his veto comes .
speech from President Johnson which is
the second bomb thrown into the Iadica
camp fLom the White House this week..
The die is cast. The party that had power
to make the President has not that power
to trammel and e,slave his honest convic-
tions. The party that had the power te
make Congress after its own mould and
pattern, finds its chosen president check
mate that will not bulge an inch. We
take pleasure in referring our readers to
Andy Johnson's late anti Radical speech n
another column. He don't use words tt
conceal his meaning, but speaks right out
in such plain English that none need hes
tate as to what he means. lie means res
toration for the Union the bringing bael
Of every State as soon IS they adopt ths
constitutional requirements, and is the po
litical enemy Of those who wish to keel
Union discovered. That is the essence c
Andy Johnson's pos ition, and to that enc
let HIM be nobly Supported.

Ngw METHOD OF TRANsPoRrArlOx.-A
agent Of the Mississippi Valley T'anspo ta-
,lon Company, has just purchased At Gin
cinna.i powerful steam tug for the new
line that is now being established between
St Louis and New Orleans. The plan OF
this company is to have a line exclusively
for freight, and their boats will be built
with this view, thus saving the expense to
cabins, etc, and reducing TIE expenses Of
running one half or more One tug, with
accommodations On y for officers and crew,
Will be able to tow half dozen or mt re bar.
ges. and the expense will Oe comparatively
light There is every probability that the
increasing demands Of the river trade will
show the wisdom and necessity Of this
method Of transportation, and the result
will doubtless be to greatly reduce the pres
cnt rates Of freight. But the vast rivel
trade and travel, which will, in all probabil-
ity, steadily increase from year to year, viii.
afford ample business for the different com.
peting lines.

Cars TnRoUGn TO PoRr BYRON. We learn
that the track Of the Western Union Rail
road, is now laid through the principal
street Of Port Byron and connects with the
Rock Island and Sterling depot.
The ed tor Of the Fulton Journal has Ia.
ken ride over the road from Fulton to
Port Byron and speaks as follows of it:
The rapid progress made in the grading,
bridging and la, ing of ties and iron for the
las. 30 miles is quite remarkable and speak
well for those having the work in charse
And We believe the entire line from Racine
to Port Byron is one of the most subtan,ial
in the West; and Tor a new track runs very
smooth and nice The Me,idocia, the or 81

work that bids defiance to the usual spring

sine house have been bull; which together
wit, side tracks and other improvement :
going on, gives quite lively appearance IL
this locality, ana the citizens OF Coldova
will probably take the initiative steps this
of their beautifully locate town, and Port

qnickening impulses, and will be greatly
benefited by the opening of their new oai

1t is impossible to estimate all the aiva,
tages of the Western Unicn Railroad
when put through to Rock Island. Every
town ou its line and those on the west side
Of the rlvcr We trust will be IN lde glad with
the crowning success Of this new competing
line Of rail to carry their merchandise,
lumber nj coal, at reduced rates And We
are sure that with such employers as Mr.
p,tcher, agent here. conductor lrambail,
and contractor Smith, all faith ul, true
and courteous, the company's new line Is
fast winning the fayors Of the PEOPLE.

TuEArRicAL.--The attendance at the Me
trcpolitan Theatre. last night was very en-
couragng. As Richel,eu, Mr.. Fairclough
u'ly sustained the expectations Of his nu :

student of his characters. and in rendering
them, makes every word. look, and ges-
turc cGectual. AS De Maaprat, Mr.. Hol-
land succeeded excellently. In fact, the
entire play was rendered in mariner who'll
" satisfactory, the leading actors being
ably supported by the company, and cen
tinually receiving outbursts OF applause
from the audience. This evening, the
theatrical public will be favored with
Shakespeare celebrated FIVE act tragedy
Of Macbeth" As the evening promises
t. be favorable one, the attendance vii;
undoubtedly be large. Those who admire
and who desire to encourage the rendition
Of the legitimate drama, should not neglect
to be present.
