An interview with tue Hon. Eeverd y


The New York Times correspondent
happening to find himselfin Baltimore,
and in the humor for a 'big talk with
prominent man, on the 5th instant
concluded to hunt up ex-Minister
Johnston and interview him. After a
long search he found the illustrious
diner out at his country-seat. ..-
The correspondent led off with one
or two cautious questions in. order to
sound Mr.. .JOhnson's disposition to
chat5 and the result proving satisfacto-
rY, the conversation soon grew quite
free and uurestrained. 2 Mr.. johnson
expressed the opinion that the chance
of concluding another convention with
England is considerably smaller than
the little end OF nothing whitfield to a
point. He thinks that the rejection of
the late protocol by the Senate hurt the
English national pride, and the speech
of Senator Sumner has made them
stubborn and indignant. In case of
war, which he thinks cannot be pre-
cipitated, he is inclined to think that
this country would stand No. 2 In The
fight. -.-.'.-s.--
Senator Grimes letter, he said, raised
a little breeze In the Foreign Office.
Young Howard, Mr.. Thornton's Secre-
tary of Legation, he said was the per-
son at the English legation here who
made the remarks to which Senator
Grimes alluded in his letter, and MIR.
johnson understood that Lord Claren-
uon mad wrluento Mr.. Thornton about
the matter.
Mr.. Johnson seemed to the cores
pondent to have conceived a sudden
and strong love for monarchical insti-
tutions-tor lords, dukes, earls, and all
that; and he looked quite fat, com Forta-
BILE, and very double. chinned,

A nemnrknnlo Eplrconnte.

1t is well known that the Bishops OF
the Methodist Episcopal Church in this
country are not diocesans, but exercise
joint and general authority over the
whole church. One of them, Bishop
Kingsley, is about to start on a course
OF Episcopal vlsitations, which affords
a striking illustration of the breadth of
the field over which our American
Methodists have extended their Mis-
sIonary operations. He goes first to
Colorado, where he will organize an
Annual Conference. Thence to Oregon,
TO superintend the meeting of Confer
epce. Then back to the California Con
ference, and then to Shanghai. in China,
and from that to the Conference In
Northern India. After that he is to
visit the work In Germany, Denmark,
Sweden, and other European countries.
This visitation round the world is to
end in France next summer, and the
Bishop expects to reach his home again,
II life is spared, in September OF next
year.-1n-t the programme OF TINS TOUR
the days Of the month are specified on
which each meeting is 10 be held; and
such Is the completeness of modern ar
rAngements for travel that very little
apprehension Is entertained ola failure
in the appointments. We are often told
that the drum-beat of the Britieh army
is heard round the entire world but we
have never heard of q tour of inspeo.

ACCORDING to an English authority,
It costs Reverdy Johnson some 5000
in gold for the brief ministerial tri-
umphs which he enjoyed in the mother
country. The sumptu Gus dining and
winnings which ware so numerically
forced upon him are, OF course, except
ed from this little bill, but If the COM
bined outlay could ever be calculated,
we doubt not it would prove this to be
one OF the most expensive ambassador

THE Washington Republicans are
greatly elated at their success Monday
in the municipal election. The action
of the negroes in preventing several OF
their own race from voting the demo-
cratic ticket, and thereby at one time
nearly melting a riot, which was only
suppressed after killing one negro and
woundlng several others, is severely
condemned by the Republicans and
Democrats alike.

A ConstItutional Point.

We print elsewhere W hat We deem en-
the whole fair and sensible letter from
Greenbrier county Republican on a
topic which has lately received some
attention in these columns. Upon one
point, however, as we think, our cor
respondent is in error. he assumes
that the provision of thu State Constitu-
ton denying the franchise to those who
participated in the rebellion is overrid-
den and nullified by the XIVth Amend
meut to the Constitution of the United
States; and that therefore nothing will
be required TO remove the disability but
for the Legislature to repeal the acts
which put that provision In force.
There appears to be nothing in the
XIVth Amendment to sustain such
view. 1t is true the first section pro-
vides that "all persons born or natur-
allied in the United States, and subject
to the jurisdiction thereof, are clt1Z9ns
OF the United States and OF the State
wherein they resides" and that mo
State shall make or enforce any law
which shall abridge the privileges or
immunities of citizens OF the United
States" But clearly the privilege of
the franchise Is not one of those here
referred to; because, aside from the pre-
cedents that have obtained since the
adoption OF the Federal constitution
allowing the States TO regulate suffrage
each for itself, this article plainly re-
ond section after declaring how repre-
sentatiOn shall be apportloned among
the States, provides that when in any
State the right to vote is denied to male
Inhabitants 81 years of age, or in any
way abridged, except for participation
in rebellion or for other crime, they
shall not be counted in the basis OF
representation in that State. This clear
ly recognizes the power OF the State to
deny the right OF any portion of its citi-
zens.
The exception "for participation in
the rebellion or other crime" does not
mean that the State shall not disfran-
chise for these offences, but that those
SO disfrarchIsed shall not be deducted
from the basis. 1t is only when the
suffrage is denied for other reasons (as
for color) that this is to be done.
Nothing in the NIVth Amendment
or in amy other part of the United
States Constitution, SO far as yet inter-
preted by the courts (and SO far as we
understand, )contltcts with the disabling
amendment to our own Constitution.
1t follows that the latter amendment is
in full force and can only be abated by
another in the regular mode.
II we are correct, our correspondent
is therefore wrong in presuming that
our rebels can be relieved from this
disability merely by repeating act of
the Legislature. The disabilities ex-
Guiding Them from the professions of
teachers and of the law, and debarring
them from the courts of justice, were
imposed by legislative enactment and
can be removed by the same process !;
but that relating to the suffrage re-
ouires n different treatment.

Nu1sANcE.-Much complaint is made,
and very justly, of the indiscriminate
plastering of trees, sidewalks, walls
and fences, with handbills, posters and
dodgers" ofal kinds. The persistent
zeal of the advertising vandals, in OBJ
truding upon the gaze of the promena-
der at every point, laudations of the
immaculate virtues of medicines, pa
tent rights and articles of various
kinds, should be curbed if possible, by
municipal authority.
Much of this is done in the night. and
often when man comes out of his
house i'll the morning he finds staring
at him from the pavement before his
gate, stencil daub, telling him that
Jinks' Patagonian bitters are a specific
for hypochondria! Meanwhile another
nocturnal artist has embellished his
front fence with an exhortation to save
his money by buying his boot jacks at
NockVOurnOSeOtf's.

LOSSES.

We have not been able to ascertain
but few of the individual losses. but
from what we can learn, they are enor-
nous. Everything in the way of grain
or vegetables that had shown it's head
above ground was entirely cut off and
ruined. Several head OF cattle and
many sheep and hogs were killed :;
while chickens, turkeys etc, were in.
Discriminatory slaughtered. Trees of
huge dimensions were twisted up by
the roots, and torn and broken into
every Imaginable shape. The tops of
massive oaks were snapped off az tf'but
reeds, and carried in some cases, two
or three hundred yards. Fences IN all
directions were laid low-hardly- . rail
being left standing in the whole path of
the storm. We have heard OF but one
person being injured, and he was una
bic to reach shelter in time to avoid the
storm. He was severely bruised and
cut, but will soon be conValescent.-Ist
The storm, to say the least of it, is
one of the most severe that has ever
visited this section of country, and is
one that Will long be remembered by
our citizens.

From the Weston Democrat.
On Friday last, the 2Sth ult.. a ter
relic storm of wind and hail swept over
the country in the neighborhood of
Fink's and Ereeman's Creeks. The
weather, previous to the out burst, was
calm and sultry, it being almost dif11-
cult to breathe. A small black cloud
in the distant horizon gave warning
that something was about to "drap',
and almost every one got into timely
shelter, although not one anticipated
any such visitation as the one with
which they were inflicted. Alter few
large, spnttering drops of rain, the
wind began 10 blow with terrific force,
and In few moments came the hall
and such hail small at first, but grad-
ually increasing in size until it became
as large as walnut: Commencing in
the neighberhood of Alum Fork of
Leading Creek, 1t passed with increas-
ing and more destructive force to Chev-
ron's, on Fink's Greek, and from thence
to the old Thorp Mills, on Freeman's
Creek, where ali trace of it and its dire
full effect passed away.
