PRESIDENF JOHNSON.

The Greeneyille Union, published
at the home of President johnson,
says in its issue of Feb. 10:
"There has been no little said in the
papers recently about the probability OF
President johnson beings candidate for
Governor Of Tennessee at the ensuing
election. 1t is hardly reasonable that
Mr.. johnson has expressed himself in a
way that would authorize any one to
speak for him on the subject, though the
impression is becoming general that he
does not contemplate quietly dropping
out of sight at the close of his presiden'
tial term. 1t may not perhaps be i'm
proper to suggest that a condition may
arise in Tennessee which would render
it impOlitic to run Democratic candi'
date for Governor at all next summer.
A thought which we hope will not be
lost sight of altogether

AN EXAMPLE FOR TENNESSEE.

The Governor OF Alabama has
issued letter of instructions to the
sheriffs of the different counties in
that State in reference to outrages
reported to be committed by the
Ku-klux. He tells the sheTIffs
that they are invested with ample
authority to protect citizens and
preserve order, and if they are I'M
able to do so by means Of posse
cOmitatus, it is their duty to call
upon the military, who, under a
standing general order from the
War Department, will furnish all
requisite assistance. The order to
which Gov Smith refers applies
equally to Tennessee as to Alabama.
There never has been a day in the
last two or three years when the
civil authorities Of this State could
not have secured on application to
Gen. Thomas sufficient force to
have executed any process, to ell
force any law, and to have presery-
ed the peace, if there had been any
danger But that was not in accord
with the policy of Gov. Brown
low and the Radicals who coytrol
him. They must have "lOyal mi
liia" to harrass and annoy the
people in the hope of provoking
them to the commission of acts
which they could plead in justitca-
ton of the Outrages they have been
perpetrating in the name Of law. In
almost every other State of the
South there has been some effort
made to oonciliate the people who
sustained or sympathized with the
Confederates, because they were
recognized to be the men OF intelli-
gence and influence. The very re
verse has been pursued here, and
the result is the worst governed
State in the whole country.

A SUGGESTION.

On Thursday next we are to have
new Governor. We have had a
good many in the last four years
very much too many. 1t is to he
hoped the coming man, who, from
appearances, is an able bodied one,
will be the Governor in fact, and the
only one during the time he shall
exercise the "powers and functions
of the office. Under the constitu-
ton of the State, the Governor is
not an important officer-his powers
and duties being chiefly to write a
message or two to the Legislature,
sign bonds, pardon criminals, and in
a general way represent the dignity of
the State. The batch of Governors we
have enjoyed since April, 1868,
however, have been what the French
king declared himself to be-che
State. They have dictated laws :,
elected Legislators and Congress
men, not to say Senator'S; made
and unmade Judges; controlled rail
roads; aud run the machine out and
out. We have had q good deal of
Legislature in the meantime, but it
has been a mere stoker on the State
train. We have had, at least, two
Gov. Brownlows, one Gov. Fletcher
cd interim, and at present 1T is said
we have a Gov Boynton. How

TIE Chicago Journal opposes
that feature of the proposed constl-
tutional amendment which author
ICES the negro to hold Office. The
Journal does not oppose this fea-
ture because it is wrong, but because
it will defeat the proposition to force
negro suffrage on the North. The
New York Times of the 18th inst
denounces at some length the suf
frage amendment, Directing espe.
cially to giving the negroes the
right to hold office,

many more there are, or have been,
we leave to those who have been
about the Capitol more than we
have.
The object of this paragraph
is to suggest, that after the
25th inst, the experiment be tried
of one Governor. That system
worked very well for a number OF
years; and certainly the plural ex-
ecutive system has not wrought re-
suits entirely satisfactory to all par,
ties. By all means, for change
let us have one Governor, and lei
the Legislature adjourn, for few
months at least. We are sure thi:
could not make matters worse, anC
they might, bypossibility, improve
1t is worth trying at any rate. /
there is such thing as a State be
ing governed too much, and wis,
men have said so, Tennessee is il
that fix. -.

THE TELEGRAPH AND POSTAL
UNION.

We are in receipt of an able and
exhaustive review of the PROPOSE
tion made last year in Congress
and which has gained some head
way-to unite the telegraph and
postal systems of this country.
This review is in hostility to the
proposition, and gives a large and
interesting amount of information
in relation to the telegraphy Of the
world, and the relative number and
cost Of messages in Europe and
America The arguments against
the project are numerous and
cogent, and cannot fail to attract
the attention and challenge the
thoughtful consideration of Con
gress and the intelligent public.

shat they report all the facts in
their possession concerning the
former management of said fund,
and its present actual condition"
This resolution was subsequently |
adopted by both houses. Parham,
the lobby agent of Rutter, writing
Feb. 6, 1867, informed his en-
ployer of the offering of the resolu-
ton, and said ait does not amount
to any thing; the committee
will report when they please
and not before" How well he
understood what he was writing
about will be learned from the fact
that the committee did not report
until the 10th of February, and then
they gave none of the information
sought by Mr.. Carrigan's resolu
ton. They made Intentionally a
whitewashing report to conceal the
facts they knew all about. This
report shows that they did not take
from Rutter the books and notes of
his bank, nor do they make any
mention of them. Why2 Such a
report would have laid bare the in
| iquity of many Of their fellow mem
bers of the Legislature, and of at
least one or two of themselves, who
got money and bad notes discounted
