Elk President johnson yesterday addressed
an assemblage of FIVE thousand persons for
three honrs and half. Governor Ander-
son, OF Ohio, Senator Fowler, and other
prominent gentlemen occupied seats on the
stand. Mr.. johnson was introduced by
Hon. Gus. Henry, and was enthusiastically
cbeerad. He made an able argument in
reference to his admin, stration Of the Gov
eminent, aud compared Jefferson Davis
and Sumner He considered the latter the
greatest enemy to the Constitution, for
though the former fought for secession, he
was still for Constitutional Government.
Will. the latter was for overthrowing the
Constitution and establishing despotsm.
Abiding to President Grant, he said
they call Grant second to Washington -
Let us see how he merits this name. In
his first. inaugural Washington said the
magnitude and difficulty of the trust to
which the voice Of my codntrymen has
called me is sufficient to awaken in the
wisest and most experienced citizers DIS
trust in their bowers to carry out the grea
responsibility, and was douotful Of his
qualification for so grave and high q trust.
In his fr-t inaugural Grant says the res
possibilities of my position are great, but
assume them without fear. There is the
first contrast. The diHfdence and dignity
ofthe one, and the arrogant aelf-Suffciency
Of the other. Washington did not enter
the executive mansion as into great gift
establishment But how is it with this
second Washington? He was approached
by one man, whom he afterward appointed
Secretary of the Treasury, with sixty-fve
thousand dollar check, and the future Sec.
rotary of the Navy with deed to furnish
ed house in Philadelphia; ty his Attorney
General that was to be with an expensive
library, and so on an ipfnitum, each one
that hoped foGofice coming with an ex-
pensive gift to purchase it. Here is the
second comparison. The real father OF
the country was for the maintainance os
principle and the good Of his country.
while this second Washington was shrewd-
" looking out for himself. He concluded
by saying 81 think the Radital party is
disin:egrating and crumbIng away. The
Offices were not enough for all and money
is getting scarce and, things are, lying
arodnd loose. The party is filled with
dissentions and dissatisfaction. and is
fighting for the little rssdumn of plumber,
and tits our duty to give them no rest, to
press home upon them and hasten their
death by a bold, and manly and courageous
adherence to the essential principles Of
true republican government.
