dent johnson and present him with an
authentic report of its proceedings, called
upon tho President on Saturday. The
scene was, says the Cincinnati Enquirer,
n of the most imposing and enthusias
tic that has ever taken place in the White
House. The presentation address Of
Hon. REvERDY JOHNSON is given in
full and was certainly a very mastery ef-
fort. Tho reply of the President was
equal, il. not'superiOr lto,. his'greatest eff
forts. He handles the Rump disuniou
Congress without gloves, and from tho
droppings of his tongue it is not difficult
to learn. what the Executive will do will

ssDISGRUNTLED.'

The editor Of the Ashland Times, by his
next friend, W. OSBORN, in last weeks
issue Of that delcctablc sheet, is compell-
ed to offer to the public a sort Of an apol-
ogy for his bounty transactions in connec-
ton with one Mr.. ANDERSON ct al, aud,
in SO doing, was guilty Of the disreputa-
Bic act Of assailing private citizens in or
der to screen himself from public con-
tempt. The adipose carcass Of the beef
cater cannot be screened by such a feint.
If JEFF's transactions in the ANDERSON
affair ore perfectly upright, and Mr.. Roll
LER the defaulter he alleges him 10 be,
why did he not make that showing in the
Court, instead Of attempting to wrong Mr..
ANDERSON bya mean technical advantage
over a pretended neglect to present his
draft for the sum drawn? Mr.. ROLLER
was a competent Witnesses was DR.. D.
8. SAMPsEL, aud upon such a showing,
the township, instead Of JEFF, would have
had the bill to foot. 1t is q serious charge,
first, to trick a poor soldier out Of his
bounty then to assert that Mr.. ROLLER
has the money ; and, next insist that if
tho good people Of Montgomery do not
again pay it to JEFF, that a great outrage
will be con mitled upon him!!
AS to Mr.. RoLLER's guilt or innocence,
we have nothing to say. He is living
acting for himSelf-and is competent 10,
and riW, in duo time, answer the charges
alleged against him by tho editor Of The
Times.
There is a judgment against JEFF. Il

receive the funds. As to JEFF's protes
story about the draft and want Of motto,
Of n%onpayment, that will do 10 tell tn,

Mr.. Osborn sprang to his feet, worked up to

that the gentleman had a right to decline
