Ex-PREsIDENT JoHNsoN's RECEPTION
Observation-Disclosures has rarely been wit
messed in our city more general and en-
thusiastic welcome to any individual than
that extended to Mr.. johnson yesterday,
and the bright and exhilarating weather
succeeding the clouds and rain of the day
before added new animation to the i'm
posing occasion. The outpouring Of the
multitude which thronged the streets and
the reception, and greeted with the liveliest
manifestations of enthusiasm the President
who has just become once more private
citizen, afforded the most unmistakable evil
dence that the City Council, in rendering
this honor to Andrew Johnson, had fairly
represented the popular feeling, and must
have been an inspiring earnest to him who
received it of that vindication of " his fame
and record which awaits him in the sp-
proving acclamations of other multitudes
and in the final verdict Of posterity Bal

EDITOR Posi- Permit me 10 suggcs,
that in very short time, from indica.
tons, a Convention will be called by the
Leslature. So .dras have had commu.
nica,ion with the people, they are deter.
mined to select the wisest, bost, most
discreet aud tolerant men TO represent
them in that Convention.
1t is conceded that when the Conven.
ton shall meet, reform in the judiciary
system will be adopted. as it is certain
ly demanded. Therefore, in the selec.
ton Of delegates, will /; not be proper
10 avoid. as Iar as practicable, the cleo
ton Of men whose services will be de-
manded in Judicial position. A dele
gate who participates in the Convention
might feel some delicacy in accepting a
position created by that Convention.
The same suggestion Is applicable to
any other Office likely to be created by
the Convention.

and by Mr., Cooper, of Davidson, to ex-
empt persons renting booths at State or
