ReverGy johnson and the Worklngmea
of London. -r

1 The American press, WHICH is nothing II
nos sensational, has recently had great
deal to say about Reverdy johnson, and bis
toadyism, which is Just Worth the ink with
which it is written. The ,Lopdon Reform
Club, evidently taking its cue from the par
tisan press Of this country, after rendering
the ambassador complimentary dinner,
has SHOWN the length Of its ears and COM
mon decency, by declining to- meet its en-
pgement. The correspondence which, we
publish in another column, speaks for itself.
II certainly shows the conduct OF Tie. soc
called representatives. of the workingmen in
no enviable light. The digni6ed rebuks ad-
by Mr. johnson, is both timely
and to the point. The Express, in referring
to this breach of decorum appropriately
says: le 1aaIa.. r.4ssa rnRr.. l 4.
The workingmen Of England pride themselves
on their hospitaHty--the Reform .Leaeuea has
sinned against every hospitable feeling IL q
woEkRgman asked a friend to dinner, be would
have aidlnner tor him, and if the good wife at
home were hostile be would have the spread at
a PUBLIC house. But the Reform League. having
invited the American Minister 70 dinner in the
name Of all the ,vorkingmsn Of England, and
Mr.; johnson having cordially accepted The in.'
vitation, they have now sent him word tdat they
have changed their mind, and DO not desire bid
company. Such an act is not o1ly 4 soiseispe
n manners, bat . blunder In policy Af6iMs.

III "A few months since we attended a meet
ing Of the work ing We men Of View York, at
which the sproprissy of fOlming a female
protective union " Is brOached, and the pri-
mary steps to accomplish such result were
taken. Words Of encouragement were ftly
spoken, although the, objects foF which the
meeting had been called were we'll. nigh
lost sight of by dissertations ON the irjust-
ice and seishness Of man. Among those
present, however, were two or three true
friends, who were not ashamed or afraid to
tel the truth, to utter words of soberness
and caution, and to upset BY their we'll
timed practical remarks, the castles in the
air which had been built BY she enthusiasts.
They told these young women that if they
desired or expected to succeed, they would
have to commence at the beginning serve
a Legitimate apprenticeship and learn a
trade,-make themselves, in fact, proficient
In the respective cslllngs which they had
chosen. Although 10 was evident that this
advice was somewhat unpalatable to those
who preferred the golden-tinged arguments
of the other speakers, we rejoice 60 know
that IL was-acted on, and az result that
several female organizations have been es-
tablished in the metropolis, wh,0h, so fer,
have received the moral and sanztsensis Sup
port of the ssmoss selfish of she race.'' i,

TOADYISM.

A few days since, the telegraph announc-
ed the inportant fact that the employees Of
the public printing Office at Washington, 70
the number of one hundred, members OF the
Grant and Colfax club, had waited on the
president elect, and after rendering their
congratulated had presented him with
parchment containing their signatures IN
full. When we remember that the EXPIRE
sident Of the National Labor Union was dis
charged by Mr.. Defrees, for the prominent
part ne had taken in the labor movement,
we cannot Hegard the action Of these men in
any other light than that Of disgrAcefol
tOadyism, which is calculated to throw dis
credit oa the whole craft. La other W"lls
their parchment virtually said: '''Ne~ Mr..
Grant, we are all government employees, who
voted for YOU honor, the successful candi-
date, 10 case any of US should hereafter be
discharged from incapacity' or neglect Of
duty, we intend to fall back on our political
record, which It is expected viii be deemed
sufficient to reinstate u.s." out on such sycO-
infancy. We feel satisfied no one despises il
more than the distinguished citizen whom it
was intended to honor % ...' '
On par WIN the above Is the system of
presentations to foremen and employers
Nuisance which ought to be abated. New
Years presents are well enough in their
place, but it Is little strange that the only
parties found worthy of such favors should
be those who have the power Of dismissal in
their hands. The sooner such system is
FRO wned down the better. rc r1. WV
