The Presidential Tour.



We learn that New York publish
ing house, in charge of the Administra-
ton, announces a full and correct ac-
count of Andrew Johnson's trip to and
from the Capital. That would certainly
be the best campaign document for the
Union party we could possibly suggest.
To show him in his almost imbecility,
deaf to the demonstrations of the peo-
pie, blind to all he saw, and over gar
rulous about his policy, a middle-aged
man in a premature dotage, would be
all that could be necessary to open the
eyes of the masses in regard to this
great defender of Southern rights. 1t
would swallow up all the records OF
those who now indorse him, it would
show the Chief Magistrate as n low pol
itician, jeered and derided by those who
gave him place and yet whom he reck-
lessly deserted. Burn up all the docu-
ments you have, ye managers of the
campaign, and send for 1.-The Presiden-
tial Tour" We only regret that we
must eventually be sneered at'by the
foreign press, who will use this hitherto
unheard of noyementi in President oi
the United States, in an attempt to
prove the utter futility OF Republican
Government.

THE New York Herald, under the
heading, "The President and the Radi-
ecals-the Way to Defeat the Latter
more clearly defines its position. 1t
says:
'.Sinee the appalling tragedy whereby
Andrew johnson became President of
the United States, we have cordially
supported him and his Southern policy
against the extreme reconstruction pro-
gramme of the Northern Radicals.
From recent events, however, South
and North, including the New Orleans
massacre, the Maine election, and the
Presidents Western excursion, and
from all the passing indications of
Northern public opinion, we are satis-
fed that in opposing the Constitutional
Amendment adopted by Congress, Mr..
Johnson, in the approaching Northern
elections, will be defeated. In the
widening of his conflict with the Radi-
Gals to a conflict with Congress, he has
evidently been very unfortunate, and
in the further prosecution of this con-
test there is but a gloomy prospect of
his ultimate success.n
