Those Democratic papers that are so
fond of quoting President Johnson just
now. and OF holding him up as author
ity, fail, as We notice, 10 give their
readans some OF his most notable as well
when they are harangniug day after
day against the Constitutional Amend
ment and against the Registry law,
they never can be induced to introduce
in their remarks the following extract
from the Presidents speech to the Vir-
ginIn delegation in January last.
al am free to say that I'LL the respon-
sible positions and places ought to he
confined distinctly and clearly to men
who are i0ydl. II there were. only i've
thousand IoyaL men in u State, ora less
number, but sufficient TO take charge
of the political machinery of the State,
those i've thousand men, or the lesser
number, nre entitled to ii, If allthe rest
should be otherwise inclined. look
upon It as being fundamental that the
exercise of political power should be
confined to loyal men,"
If stronger declaration than the
above extract has been made in favor
of the constitutional amendment We
have not seen it., And yet7while the
democratic meetings hero and else
where in the State, are denouncing
tho Legislature for ratifying that
amendment, they arc throwing
up their hats for the President who
could not have said more in the sumo
space for our amendment even IL he
had been one of the members of the
legislature aforesaid.

for all the woes and burdens Of the war.
We do not believe that he viii

the fact that Judge Summers

heart has always been with the good

We understand that Secretary McCullOch has set
down his foot against further removals OF faithful and
capable Revenue officers to give places to greedy and
pushing place-hunters. We are much obliged for
many of the removals hitherto made, since they have
swelled our Republican majOritiesi but no more are
needed on that account. and we think the business
might as we'll stop right here We have not doubt
that the revenue Of the current fiscal year will be
considerably reduced by the changes already made.
In collecting revenue from internal sources, expert
ence is of great value; new assessor and collector
cannot detect and preclude rOgueries and evasions
nearly so well as their predecessors. We infer that
President johnson acquiesces, if be does not fully
coincide in the decision Of the head Of the Treasury
Department If 80, the result must be advantageous
TO the Revenue and gratifying to the country

CHATTANOOGA thence TO Buzzard Roost, and nom buz-
card Roost to Atlanta, and In falling back IRON one
stronp noston to another he spared no efforts to SO
co,nnlee the destruction Of the road as to make the
ranid pursuit OF Shernan's army impossible; but,
though the damage was great il did not prove Sc
os barrier 10 the unchecked advance of the national
troops. Full supplies Of all manner Of construction
aterals such as iron, rails, chairs, spikes CROSS
es and bdgetirnber had been stored under guard at
convenient points along the hue' so that, Wnetner
called upon to repair damages done In the rear ~
ouerras TO rebuild bridges Of formidable dimensions
or TO lay miles of track in 'front.' in orderto keep pace
with the great army that was ever marching
along, the Superintendent was amply prepared to
meet all demands. Though at first doubtful, Gen,
Sherman soon ceased to fear any delay from want OF
transportation anu suppnes'
In October, 1864, Gen. Hood, gaining Sherman'S
rear, threw his whole army on its line OF communi-
cation, and in single effort destroyed IS miles OF
railroad track and ass feet Of bridges Before the enc
