The Presidents Mistake.

President johnson, in his speech at
Cleveland. remarked that I" he did
not care about his dignity In our
judgment this is greatly to be regret
ted, The American people care very
much about it, and can never see it
forgotten or laid aside without pro-
found sorrow and solicitude. Mr..
johnson is not speaking or travelling
as a simple citizen. He is President
of the United States, at Cleveland as
well as at Washington-while ad-
dressing mass meeting as we'll as
when presiding at Cabinet council;
and whatever he may do or say at
either place, carries with it all the
weight and Influence of his high po-
sition. So far as its effect upon the
public mind is concerned, what he
says in a public speech has precisely
the Importance as what he says in a
message to Congress ;-and he should,
in Justice to himself. to the people,
and to the transcendent interests con-
signed to his care, be just as consider
ate, Just as calm and just as dispas-
sionate in the one as in the eother.
The President at Cleveland, as else
where upon his tour, has met thous-
ands' of those who do not indorse his
policy-and among. them, as a matter
of course, there have been good
many men of rude manners and a very
low conception of the proprieties of
such occasions he has been SUBJ.
jected at their hands to taunts and
reproaches, more or less disrespectful
and insulting He has made a great
mistake in retorting upon them, or in
paying the slightest attention to them.
The President of the United States
cannot enter upon an exchange of
epithets with the brawlers of mob,
without seriously compromising his
official character and hazarding in
terests too momentous to be thus
lightly imperiled. He may safely
leave the vindication of his official
acts, especially against such assault,
to his friends, and mere personal at
fronts it is utterly beneath his per-
sonal or official character to notice or
even to hear. it7AIit3

mercidt says the President has a re-
sonant and far reaching voice, and
seemingly not In the least impaired by
his recent much speaking; his style is
declamatory and exceedingly earnest,
and any disjointedness that may be
detected in reading his remarks, was
a little too loud in the earnestness of
his defamation. The crowd that
listened to his speech was evidently
attracted by courtesy, other than. en-
thusiam or admiration for the Presi-
dent, and was an orderly, respectable
and intelligent gathering, and there
was manifested throughout the Presi-
dents remarks spirit of fairness and
a willingness to listen with respect to
whatever might be said. Following
the display on the platform, there was
rush through the house of hundreds
who desired to take the President by
the hand The Commander of the
boys in blue, in card published to-
day, gives the following version. of
the remarks made by Gen. Grant at

said; am no politician. The Presi-

physicians of our city, but received

roes alternately, were kept up remit
