Mr.. BIake's Address Heartily En-
dOrseti.--He is Called Upon to Say
More on the Sabjcct Of Terracins.
Editor Press and Banner:
Your Issue Of last week containing the ad.
dress OF Mr.. Blake on the preservation of our
lands, has awakened lively interest among
the people. You well say that Mr.. Blake de-
serves 10 be considered public benefactor If
he succeeds in inducing the people to adopt
his suggestions. They are the sentiments OF
q statesman, and arc not dwarfed by their np-
plicatlon to q single locality, but apply to the
whole State. Will yon allow me to ask MIR.
Blake 10 give us, through your columns, his
opinion as to the proper method Of inducing
the adoption of his plan, which we believe to
be the proper one. J. l.. H.

Mr.. JOhnson's Reply.
WASuISGTON. D. c.. Sc

WASHINGTON, D. c., Sept. IL. 1853.
have to acknowledge the receipt of your
letter Of the Sth instant, enclosing clipping
which you say is from the "North Alabami-
an" OF the 7th instant.
OF course you do not expect me to make an
swer to such an article. My feeling on read
ing 1t is one OF amusement rather than other.
wise to see q picture which is SO different
from the original person as he is described by
those that know him best. l believe, how
ever, that cartoons and caricatures ore in
tended chiefly for amusement.
You say in your letter. "1t is said you are a
Republican. This do not believe, but do not
know" presume it is not necessary for me
to state seriously that am a Democrat. Any
one who knows me, my training, and my an
tecedents, will know my politics. 1t is true
that under the operation Of the Civil Service
law, was appointed to position in the clas-
sified service Of the Treasury Department In
March, 1884 but my politics were not in the
least affected thereby, and were not consider
ed either then or thereafter, so far as I am
aware. In our official work here, politics are
not considered, and never have been to my
knowledge. have Of course learned that no
one political party has monopoly OF all that
is good and honest and desirable in either the
citizen or the government.
Very Respectfully,
j. ALTHEUS JOHNSON.
