A STRANGE STORY OF REvERDY JOHNSON.
The Washington correspondent of the New
Nork Sun tells this story, which certainly has
an ugly look for our laundering and doubtful
Minister to the Court of st. James.
While Reverdy Johnson's name was before
the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations, a
member of the House called upon a very dis
tinguished Senator on the Committee, and
asked him whether he knew from the official
records that Mr.. Lincoln sent Reverdy John
son to New Orleans as an arbiter in the case
of the 100000 in gold which Gen. Butler be-
lieved to be the property of the Confederate
Government, and which was claimed by for
eign banking house, and that after an examn-
alton johnson decided that it was the property
of the foreign house, and Mr.. Lincoln accord
ingly turned it over. The committeeman re-
piled that he knew these facts. He was then
asked whether he knew Mr.. Johnson's hand
writing. He replied in the affirmative, and his
visitor handed him receipt signed by Reverdy
johnson land dated while he was making that
examinatiop) for fee of $4,000 from the bank
ing house for attending to some unimportant
business on his return North. Subsequent de-
velopments showed conclusvely that the mon
ey was Confederate property, and that its sur
render was gross blunder. The Senator saw
the bearing of the case against Mr.. johnson,
and announced his intention to oppose John
sons confirmation; but Senatorial pride swept
away all opposition, and because Mr.. johnson
was Senator he was confirmed. Now, more
than one Senator openly declares that Minis
ter johnson has sold out to England, as Arbi-
ter johnson sold out Mr.. Lincoln.
1t should be known that Mr.. Lincoln made
this New Orleans appointment at the earnest
request of Mr., Seward, who was his ardent
friend.

To the Editor Of the Press:
send you hearty greeting this morning
on the opening OF the new political year. The
representatives of the people have again gath
cred here in Legislature and effected their or
ganization, and the new civil government of
1869 will be promptly set in motion. By rea-
son of the illness of Gov. Chamberlain, how
ever, it is now somewhat doubtful if the in
augural address is delivered before Friday.
The choice of the presiding and clerical Off
GERS is ordinarily the principal matter of in
terest, and brings here goodly- sized throng
of the fuglemen and ceadjutors of the respect
i've aspirants, but this year it has seemed to be
an event of such comparative insignifcance,
that it has attracted little or no attention, and
taken place quietly and almost without con-

THE sENAToRsHIP,


For now there is one all-absorbing question,
which towers above and overshadows all 9TH
ers,-a question of national as well as of State
Importance. The unprecedented numbers
thronging our city, overlooking our hotels, at
test the unusual warmth of the contest, and
unyielding determination of the parties. The
political sagamores of the East and their al
lies from different counties in the State are in
he field in full force, and the veteran bier
archy of Kennebee are also in line, we'll Off
cered and equipped with their reintorcements
from various sections of the State. No one
can predict what the issue of the contest
will be.
PERSONNEL OF THE LEGISLATURE.
The Senate will have most acceptable pre-
siding officer in Mr.. Stephen D. Lindsey. He
is well known as an able lawyer, with calm
clear and well-balanced mind, of pleasant and
unpretending manners. If General Grant
should have any special mission for Governor
Chamberlain, we should all have the crafty
ing assurance that Maine would not be left
withouta creditable Governor.
Among the prominent new members of this
body are Lane of Cumberland, Lang of Ken
nebec, Gushing of Waldo, Morse of Bath
and Macarthur of York
The House is one of average ability, and
has presiding officer whose political and pro-
fessional record is also we'll known. The fiat
tering unanimity of his nomination last even
ing is fair indication of the esteem in which
he is held. Among the prominent members
of this branch are Wales Hubbard of Wiscas-
set, Rust of Belfast, Gilbert of Bath, Wild
den of Calais, Stow of Kennebunk, Reed of
Portland, 'Dunning and Palmer of Bangor,
Farwell of Augusta, Kempton of Mt. Vernon,
Oak of Garland, Mayo of Dover, Chamber
lain of Ellsworth, Gram of Brunswick, Ham
of Lewiston and Wedgewood of BiddefoId
On the whole the branches form respecta-
BILE body of legislators. DAMON.
