TO the audience
MT johnson made his old speech, beginning
al ms origin, and coming down to his last
night with Congress. He remarked also that
he was free man, and said If the Con tit ton
was not rescued from "usurpers" in the next
two years, 1t was all mp with everyth ng. He
said he wished to live and die in Green willie,
that mis- public career was ended, and that he
should devote the residue OF his life to prayer
for his country. But lest his hearers should
take him at his word he fastened to add
"There Is good deal OF life in me yet. If the
people of Tennessee should req uire my ser
vices, / would not feel justified in refusing
them in behalf of the public good"
Just So!
