Andy johnson has made another speech.
Tho occasion was afforded him to dish out
his hash rhetori. by the presentation to him
of the proceedings of the Philadelphia Con-
v%ention, IN institution gotten up to honor
him as the great dispenser of bread and but
ter to that class of mortals who are more I'M
der the dominion of lank stomachs than hon.
est hearts.
He commenced his reply by saying he
hadn't words to tell how good he felt
Thought perhaps he would express more by
keeping mum. IA great many people think
SOL The description of the scene of Massa
chusetts and South Carolina, arm in arm
marching into the convention, he said was
too much for him-he had to blubber right
Quit was an evidence to him that extremes
had come together-as the dog said when he
caught his tail in his mouth. He announced
that ''the nation is in peril" That is so,
Nj. johnson, and your treacherous policy is
involving it more deeply every day. No
stronger proof of his baseness can be required
than the following disgraceful, disparaging
fling at the Congress of the United States
He rays of it:
"We have seen hanging upon the verge of
the Government as it were, a body called,
or which assumed to be the Congress of the
United States, in fact a Congress of only
part of the States"
When it is remembered that Congress is
composed of representatives chosen by the
and that Andrew johnson occupies
his position through the instrumentality of
a murderer-that he is a mere accident-he
should be cautious as to how he presumes to
impeach the validity of Congress. But he
rebel and copperhead slang only to
curry favor with traitors. Like a dog he re-
turns to his vomit After abusing Congress
he proceeds to glorify himself-tO tell how
offices he has held. His weak head is
evidently turned with the high position he
occupies, and he will be marked in history
as a man of great opportunities, but being
too dull to appreciate them, he 1atted out In
a ~stupendous failure.

Important proclamation.

WASHINGTON. August 1.-THE following
has been Issued by the President of the uni
ted States of America:
WHEREAS, A war is existing in the Re
public of Mexico, aggravated by foreign mil
itary Intervention, and whereas the United
States in accordance with their settled habit
and policy, are a neutral power in regard
to the wal which affiicts the Republic OF Mex
leo, and whereas it has become known that
one of the belligerents in the said war name
ly, the Prince Macmillan, who asserts him.
self to be Emperor in Mexico, has issued a
decree in regard to the port of Matamoras,
and other Mexican ports, which are in the
occRation and possession of another of the
said belligerents, namely the United States
of Mexico, which decree is in the following
words:
The port of Matamoras, and all those of
the Northern frontier which have withdrawn
from their obedience to the Government are
closed to foreign and coasting traffic during
such time as the law of the empire shall not
be therein reinstated. Article ,. Mer-
chandize proceeding from said ports, on ar
irving at any other where the excise of the
Empire is collected, shall pay the duties on
importation on consumption, and on salts.
factory proof of c~ontravention shall be con-
fscated.
Our Minister of the Treasury is charged
with the punctual execution of this decree.
Given at Mexico the 9th day of July,
1866"
And, whereas the decree thus recited by
declaring u belligerent blockade, unsupported
by a competent military or naval force, is in
violation of the neutral rights of the U. s.
as defined by the law OF nations as well as of
the treaties existing between the United
States of America and the aforesaid United
States of Mexico, now, therefore, l., Andrew
johnson, President of the United States, do
hereby proclaim and declare that the afore-
said decree is held and will be held by the
United States as absolutely null and void as
against the Government and citizens of the
United States, and that any attempt which
shall be made to enforce the same against
the government or citizens of the United
States will be disallowed.
In witness whereof 1 have hereuntO set
my hand and caused the seal of the
United States to be affixed. Done at
the city of Washington the 18th day of
August, in the year of our Lord 1866,
and of the Independence of the United
States the 91st. f
[Signed, ANDREW JOHNSON.
W. H. SEWARD, Secretary of State.

R- 1t is said that Alexander II. Ste
yens will deliver a series of lectures in
Northern cities during the coming win
ter. Mr.. Stevens is once of the worst men
in the country. He foresaw the conse-
quences of the rebellion. pronounced it
causeless and destined to bring ruin and
failure, yet went into it; urged the South
ern people never to yield, and accepted
the second highest office among the
conspirators. He sinned with his eyes
open and the consequences in full view.
The man who has not the nerve and
moral courage to back up his honest opin-
ions in questions of such awful magnitude,
is too dishonest to be received among
respectable people as a public lecturer.

We asserted that the bill to increase the
salaries of Congressman was introduced by q
Copperhead. The Congressional Globe shows
that fact. The author of it was Senator Rid
die of Delaware. We also said the proper
ton of Oopperhead members of the House
who voted for it, was greater than the pro-
rortion of Union men-proportion according
to numerical strength. The yeas and nays
shows that a majority of the Union men CO.
ted against 1t, while q majority of the Demo-
cratic members voting Uoted for it. Sixteen
Copperheads voted for, and only seven
against it. We stale this fact, not because
we think the passage of the act needs defence,
but because the COpperhsads are misrepre-
senting the facts for the purpose of making
capital out of it-DaytOn Journal.
