Ex-PREsTDENr JOHNSON.

Hon. Henry w. Hilliard, of Georgia,
who was a member of Congress from
Alabama from 1916 to 1851, has writ
ten to the Neto York Tribune brief
sketch of the career of ex.President
johnson, from which we make the fol-
lowing extracts:
BEGINNING PUBLIC LIFE.
saw Mr.. johnson for the first time
in December, 1S45, at the opening Of
the XXIXth Congress, when I took
my seat as a member Of the House Of
Representative from Alabama. The
House was at that time composed Of
men who would have attracted atten-
ton in any parliamentary body in the
world. John Quincy Adams sat at his
desk alone, still illustrious as well for
the great qualities which distinguished
him as for the honors he had won.
Douglas, of Illinois, In the prime Of
his manhood, had already attracted the
attention of the whole country. Hunter,
of Virginia, was still adding to his great
reputation. Winthrop, of Massachu-
sets, elegant, accomplished, and able,
yet growing as a statesman, and after
ward Speaker, shed grace upon the
body in which he sat as a member.
The two Ingersolls, the one a Wing,
the other pronounced Democrat, rep
resented Philadelphia. Hamlin, of
Maine, aspiring to still higher honors,
wss already conspicuous. Ashmun, of
Massachusetts, and Duer, of New YORK,
were men of marked ability. Alexan-
der H. Stephens and Howell Cobb, of
Georgia, had Just entered the road to
distinction. Yancey, Of Alabama, and
Clingman, Of North Carolina, were
there, the one destined TO be a leader
Of the extreme school of Southern
Democrats, the other growing in in
huence as a Wing. Jefferson Davis
and Robert Toombs took their seats as
members of the House for the first
time Andrew johnson had already
served two years, and having been re-
elected, entered the new Congress to
take his place among these able and
distinguished men.
Ihad been in Europe for some years,
and most Of the faces we're unknown
to me. Looking over that large body
of men, representing the whole cOun.
try, with its boundaries as they were
then marked, soon learned to appre-
ciate the men of force who took part in
its proceedings. 1t was impossible to
overlook Mr.. johnson. Without ele-
gance, and destitute of high culture,
still his appearance was impressive.
The great quality that distinguished
him was eGTRestRess. In politics, In
manners, IN dress, in everything, he
was one of the people. He hated every
thing aTistocratic. He knew the source
If his strength; he Stunned the circles
where the graces Of life were appreci-
ated, and loved to exhibit himself as
an illustration of the triumph of the
man over the conventional forms of
life. He displayed on two occasions in
the House his characteristic traits. He
proposed to give a home 20 every man
who would settle upon 1t. At the close
of the Congress in which Mr.. Winthrop
had presided as Speaker Of the House,
when the customary resolution of
thanks to the retiring officer was of
fered, Mr.. Johnson opposed 1t IN bit
ter, vehement speech, because he fan
cied that some slight had been put upon
him by the gentleman who had f led
the chair with so much grace and
| ability.

SCIENCE makes sad work with our
choicest metaphors. No one who
prizes truthfulness can hereafter use
the expression 'fpuTe as snow" for an
analytical chemist in New York has
Just discovered that snow flakes are
very dirty things. In a single drop of
water obtained from a flake he found
pieces of coal, fragments Of cloth,
grains Of starch, sandy matter, and
many other substances, not a fragment
of which exceeded IN diameter three
ten thousandths of an inch. Almost
all these substances were withdrawn
from the atmosphere, aud are usually
deposited in positions where they will
exert favorable influence on vegeta-
ton. So there is some compensation
for this. If we have lost a charming
simile, we have gained an aerial scav-
| enger. Snow thus assumes in our eyes
a new role, and in the light of recent
medical theories respecting epidemic
diseases, the Importance Of its action
cannot fail to be appreciated.
THE French Canadians Of Montreal
have an effective method of influencing
legislation. A new health law compell-
ing vaccination was pending before the
City Council Monday night, and the
opponents of the measure sent IN solid
circumstances through the windows.
Two Of the Aldermen were struck by
the force Of this Popular expression,
and the Council postponed the unpleas-
ant subject for six months.

Conjectures as to the cause Of the explo'
sion are various, but it is the generally re-
ceived opinion that the material Of which
the balloon was constructed was too light
while the network covering the fabric was
too open. Others again claim that there
was more gas in the balloon than should
have beeu used, and therefore, when the
balloon reached the higher regions where
the pressure of the atmosphere was lees to
the square inch than on the earth, the re-
sistance without was insufficient for the
pressure within, or, in other words the
equilibrium between the gas and the at
mosphere was destroyed.
