Mr. Inhuaon on 1H Wlri'llii Viy.
Frvmtlte 'Intnme.

our polic.y, there is jot one prcut conipcui-iiilon
in his fHithlecbr5s we nre spitted tbi sliume of
Mtipporting a n an ulio has rt'peutfill.V outriisrpd
ulltlie (litiitif of ollice and the dtrencirs of
political strile. Since the ad day viit.'ti he wan
utai. unrated Vice-President, we have lenrned
that bin coarseness and duplicity are more dun
eeroiiH to the party he leads than to that lie
oj.powes; now, at least, we need not blush to
ri Hd his jieeche8, tor it is not our priuciples
that bo drags along the ground.
Mr. Johnaon'ti tour through the. North has,
perhapx, none the Union cmise more pooil than
the arguments of all its orator. The pieteuse
that the leal object of his journey was to eive
otlicial honor to the memory of lloueia is now
openly (Unregarded, uud we sec the President,
dragging with nun the Secretary of Slate,
.stumping the North agaiuat Congress, and
glori ving bis omi greatness. At every little
railroad station w here the car? have stopped,
Mr. Johnson has harangued astonished crowds
with praises of his own patriotism, and violent
denunciations ol a "malignant, subsidized press
and a traitorous and illegal Congress." Mr.
Seward either lacks shrewdness, or has a pur
pose which many rumors indicate as still cling
ing to the ambition of aire, or he surely would
have induced the President to be frilent. But
the two trcnilcuicn havesh jwn an inexhaustible
stock ol mutual admiration, by which their pru
dence has been betrayed. Mr. Johnson, like a
stump-speaker in a county canvass, has iiacrt
every opportunity to nhuRe his opponents with
vehemence and coarseness, which constantly in
crease by exercise. Yet such an overrtow ot
wrath has rarely been united with such poverty
ofideaejhe lias but one speech, tue burden of
which is bis own inuuMulate record, and the
tieason ol the y arty whiRi elected him.
The di&gracctul scene at Cleveland is a couse
iuetice of &r. Johnson's offensive familiarity
with the crowds he has addressed, lie chal
lenged the criticism he received bv the lau
guaire he used. Never belore did a President of
the United States so coruplcrely forirot his
statiou as Air. Johnson has done in buudying
words aud argument with a noisy assembly.
It is unnecessary to eximine the Cleveland
hnraruiue; it is enough that the public should
it-ad it.
Yet what can be thought of the professed
hmiiility of Mr. Johnson a humility which is
so continually iterated that it becomes aa offen
sive form ol prldt when herefers to the assassi
nation ot Mr. Lincoln as the wjrk oi a righteous
Providence? Though not distiiigui-dici lor reti
cence, upon that sunj"ct, at least, we might, have
expected silence, but it is thus that he speaks,
and thus that the crowd replies: "But a short
time since you had a ticket before you tor the
Presidency, i was placed unon that ticket, with
a distinguished teilow-citlzcn who is now no
more. I know there are some who complain.
(A voice, 'Unfortunately.') Yes, uu tort unite
for some that God rules on high and d:als in
right. (Cheers.) Ya, unfortunately, the ways
of Providence are mysterious and incompre
hensible, controlling all those who ex
claim Uniorluuate.' ("Bully for you.')"
Yes, there are many who will com
plain no the more of Lincoln's death
wheu. they see that Mr. Johnson dous
not. We are not surprised tant Jie people
assembled at Cleveland could not hear this
language with patunce: but, were it not that
we have learned to know Mr. Johnson, we
should wonder that he continued to speaK.
Hut the opposition and ridicule of his auditors
seem to have been welcome; he continued to
speak with a si'irit which shos that be has not
lost in the (iiirnities ol the President the habits
of the dciuatrogue. 'I will tell you what I did
do. I called upon your Congress, that is try
ing to break up the Government." (Cries,
"You he d d," "Don't get mad, Andy.")
"Well, I will tell you who is road. 'Whom
the pods wu-h to destroy, they tirst
make mad ' D d your Conere'ss order any ol
them to be tried ? (Three cheers lor Oonares. )"
To such remarks a fresh attack upon Conirrcss
is his usual answer, lie would "take William
H. ISeward and bring him bd'ore you, and point
you to the hacks and scars upon his prsou. I
would exhioit the bloody garments saturated
with gore from his gusuiutr wounds. Then I
woulda.sk you: iVlty not hang Thad. Stevens
and Wendell Phillips ?' " lie defies "man or
woman to place his bnger upon one single act
of mine deviating fiora nuy pledge of mine.''
lie is called "traiior," and replies to the man
who insulted him, "1 would bet you now that if
the light fell upon your lace cowardice aud
treachery would be seen in it. Show yourself !
Oome out here where I can ee you !"
Such are the bpeeehes of the man who U now
President of the United State?. We are done
with this harangue, which the worst enemies of
Mr. Johnson canuot read without pain, great as
is its value as au exposure of hisuniitucssfor his
high olhce. Uraul aud Karramit, who have
been, in the worst possible taste, exhibited by
Mr. Seward as if tney were tame lion's harnessed
to the President's car, no doubt left lm party to
save themselves from personal disarace. What
ever they may think of his policy, they have
doie wisely in shrinking from the suspicion of
approving bW manner of eutorcing it. The
people have been again and ngain fhocked by
Mr. Johnson's exhibitions, but seldom so deeply
us now, and watch with a feeliug of nation!
hnnie the coarseness with which 1)3 has turned
a solemn journey to the tomb of a celebrated
American into the btuinping tour of an irritated
damazogue.
The Atlantic t allien atutl Their Maun;i
nuut,
from the World,
The recovery of the broken t able of 1865 from
the depths of mid-ocean by the Great Kaxtern is
au achievement almost as wonderful as the lay
ing of the cable ot 1HG6. It strikes the imagina
tion as a signal victory over the elements, and,
in fuct, as a mechanical teat, it deserves to be
ranked among the triumphs of the century.
But recent aa is the conquest over space and
time effected by the linking together of two
continents with an electric wire through path
less seas, It has already becoma common to the
popular apprehension. Experience has dulled
the sense ot wonder, and to-day the busy mil
lion?, on this side the Atlantic at least, are. used
to the daily miracle, und think ol it merely as a
part of the vast machinery with wbicn the
American press gainer for their tables, and their
counting rooms the news of tbe world.
And, indeed, it Is the usefulness of the cable
and ita permanence which are guaranteed bv the
Great kastern's recovery of the cable of 1805.
Not merely are we soon to have two lines across
the Atlantic that is, In all probability, now
assured; but we are able hereaiter to be confi
dent that no accident can happen to those
cables which cannot be speedily repaired.
...-,niitifttion mav be interrupted, but it Is
able to be resumed. The insulation of the cable
is more perfect to-day than when it was laid,
.... . tnt in insulation, or a rupture, should
either occur, can be definitely located; such are
the wrecision and perfection of the instruments
.iT...k nmaaiirn and transmit the electric cur-
Th mwator at Valentia or at Heart's
Content can measure withtn a few miles the
duWnce to the spt without moving troin his
.i ei. h Knt, out provided with
r . ..nlani ran atPAin at OUC6 tO the
'"S'KKd telUde. lower her
grappUDg Sons, lift nd splice the cable without
dl-lity. TThe chance, are, of course, that while
one cable Is silent the other will be in working
condition, and In a few days, at tha worst, com
munication can be resumed. It is in tnls aspect
that the hist achievement of the Great Ki.itern
is of so great Importiinoc. It guarantees the
permanence of oct an tclctrraph, and tneiefore
deserves the world's applause hardly less thau
the pplcndid fucccss which assured its pos
sibility. The niunnccnit-iit of the ca'ele. as a business
i nterpi ise. lias been siiort-hi?hted and improvi
dent. Capable ot being u tlniinciul success troi
the dav the Ureal I'.asUrn landed the shore-end
at Heart's Content, it has, nevertheless, been a
financial failure. The receipts ot the Caole
Con panv have uot been siiilicient to support it.
Twenty (20) mos-siuxes a day will not maintain a
cable (00 iiiile lona. The cause of this finan
cial failure Is obvlou". Chartrimr n gold dollar
lor every letter sent through the wire, the Cotn
pnuv have practically driven away hundreds of
iiie'sicjcs liotu iheir ollices; made it impossible
tor nil but thee: eat new nuper of New York to
employ it liberally; and forced toe commercial
public to con bine lor the trammr.ssion ot des
patches containing commercial news; whereas,
with lower rates, many houses would have pre
ferred to send more numerous despatches each
tor tts own exclusive beneht.
In lact. the Cable Company have conducted
their business precisely as it they had no coiitL
dence in its permanence. Having expended
very large sums in the prosccutir.n of their
splendid "enterprise, tl.ey seem to have thiught
it iiecef-sary to make everything bend to me
object ol getti'ig back their money in the short
est poi-sildc time. foolishly suppouing mat
even at the cucimous charge of a gold dollar
lor each letter, the cable would be occupied
day and night tor every instant of the twei.tv
lour hours, they have found it felt idlo in their
hands lor much the greater part of the twenty
lour hours. And, instead of lowrlufr th"ir
rates, till the cheapness ot its uue did insure its
being kept busy day and nisrht, they have main
tained them at a' figure at which the general
public will not use it ut all. II they had had
confidence in it permanence, we take it lor
granted that, instead ot endeavorine to get back
the money they have spent as speedily as possi
ble; instead of endeavoring to make the first
few months' business pay its prime co?t, they
would have treated their money spent as an in
vestment upon which they were to get a hand
some but fair interest such as lower rates aud
constant use ot the line would have insured to
them.
The success of the Ureal Eastern in recovering
the piece and laying the remainder of the cable
ot ls6 hhould cnlichten tue directors of the
Cable Company on this point, aud, while assur
ing theui the permanence ol their enterprise,
assure them also ot the stability and perm i
nence of the iuvettuieut ol money whicn their
enterprise has cost. Their rates should now be
loweied so as lo pay them a good interest upon
their capital; ami, indeed, if their purpose is to
recover the capital they havchilnk, this is the
quicker way. The present rates will never py
such au ltitenM, much lc;s will they return
ttieiu tticir capital.
Another blunder of the Cable Company is in
charging double rates .or messages in cioher.
"Nobody wno understands the telegraph busi
ness, or indeed who miderstan Is human nature,
neeas to be told that no message conveying
important commercial news aiiectins the
luai keis can be tent from Valentin to London,
or irom Heart' Content to New York, without
beini; stolen upon tne way, unless it be sent in
cipher. The telegraph companies should not be
blamed for this until they can tind operators,
agents, aud employes all uncurscd by tao taint
ol original sin, tor ro long as wires cau be
tapped, or telegraph operators hribed, no com
mercial message out ot w hich money cau be
made is enle, unless in cipher. Who would
care to commit such intelligence to the mads
in an open letrer to-day t Nobody would
think ot it. Seals atid envelopes were hardly
Hutiicient to protect such news in the days
when telegraph were unknown. Ciphers
were used in letters by Government aJuLsturs
aud by merchants then, as they are in tele
grams now. It would not have been more
lib: in d to charge double postage then thau it
is to charge douhle rates now lor the use ot a
cipher. It is the biibiuoss of telegraph com
panies to cairy messages hither and thituer
with speed and accuracy. U is a narro
iiiinded aud absutd policy for them to endeavor
10 toice their customers into sending longer
messages thau they widh to s?ud, or to dictate
the language in which they shall be couched,
or to require that they and their operatives
shall be titKen into their customers' couhdeuce.
llinhcr rates lor cipher messages signify one
or the other of t hese absurdities. Tue Cable
Company mid alt other telegraph companies
will mm tnen.scives contending against a la.v
no less universal than that ol "the line of least
reliance" (the law which water obeys in
ehuOfiug its easiest patn cowu hill), if tlu'y
contend against the elloits of thoae who use
their lines to get the most information carried,
ptivuy, lor the leant money, whether by the
use ot ciphers or by the combination of those
who want the f-anie messae, to pay the tele
graph a traction oi the cost of sending it once,
iiisuuitoi tne cost oi sending u twenty or a
hundred times. The teleuraph, like the pst-
otnee, can obtain increased revenues oy increas
ing the number of those who habitually use
them, not by imposing high prices or conditions
upon those who use tucm.
Tne English aud Continental press have not
vet waked up to the uses ot the cable. Far
behind American journuls in other sorts of
enterprise, they are equally behind ns in this.
'1LC news they procure iroin America By the
cable is meagre; and while the World, and other
N 3w York journals, daily have a column, more
or less, ot interesting telcgiaphio news irom all
paits tot the Old World, tue London Times con
tents itself aud iU readers with two or three
lincb, stating nothing more than the price of
cotton and rive-t en lies, or such a lact as the
adjournment of Congress.
The Hurt I rali, aud Negro Sull'iast'.
From tli World,
It anything were needed to prove to the Intel
ligent jieoplo of this country the utter impracti
cability ol tbe unnatural issues which the radi
cals would force upon us, and tue shameful
hypocrisy of those who sustain them, it must
surely be lound in the rough and-tunible fight
of the so-called Southern Convention over their
unhappy protege, the negro.
After having kept the wliole country, for more
thitn a year, in constant turmoil over the great
underlying question of "impartial suffrage;"
after having, directly or indirectly, made every
great measure in Congress to turn upon that
sinele nivot: alter all their virulent abuse ot
tbose "renegades" of the Kepuniican party who
f
ett constitutionally incapable of swallowine
and digesting the negro in the Dew shape pre
sented; alter proclaiming the President ard hlB

tance, but when it conea to fairly swallowing

But are we to suppose that thi rejection of
"impartial suffrage." among Its own advocates,
is a geauine repudiation r Not a bit of it.
With a few it may be, but with the vast majority
un mere piece ot hypocritical acting to iu
fluence the elections. The know that the pub

may determine, and as some of their orators
huve uot tailed, tooptnly threaten T Do they
hope, wi'h the speeches and proceedintrs of
tins Convention in the hands of every vour in
this republic, to aloss and dodge over this great
pivotal question at the ct mine elections? Miss
Anna Dicklnsm, in her Blowing wruh, sa d
she "would tell the men of the Convention that
their great party, from Maine to California, wa
devoted to hlack suffrage !" The white voters
of this country Mood in little need of this
information from Miss Dickltson. They already
knew that it is for black sutlrace the radicals
are striving to force another civil war upon us,
and they are swing to give a record of their
feeling upon it at the bnllot-boxes.
MUtaklng the Ittmr.
From the Times
The only address upon which the "Southern
Loyalists"' Convention at Philadelphia could
agiec was one in which denunciation of the
President was the sole feature. He is accused
of a multitude of political crimes aud mi de
meanors, aud is duly branded as a traitor to bis
party, and as neglecting utterly the claims of
Southern Unionists to control the destinies ol
the Southern Siutc.
The Convention evidently fell into the mistake
of stipposiner that we were to have a Presiden
tial election this tall. Tney do not seem to be
aware that President Johnson holds his olhce
until March 4, lHtID, nearly three years from the
present time; and that the election of his succes
sor docs not take place until the fall of 18G8. If
they can preserve the Address they have just
issued until that time, it will be valuable as a
campaign document against his re-election. Just
at pretint it is a little out, ot season.
The only men on trial now are the members
of the present Contiress. It would have been
more to the purpose it the "Southern Loyalists"
could have given some C'.geut reasons why they
should be re-elected. Ii they could have a'srreed
upon some piattorm ot principles on which they
could appeal tor public support- it they could
have shown any service they have rendered the
country any great lupasure they have adopted
lor its leliet any plans they have put forward
for the prompt restoration of its peace, union.
and piosnenty, they would have done some-1
thing at feast towards satislymg the curiosity ot
the people, aud po-'sibl.y towards perpetuating
the imbecility ot the present Congress.
But assault's upon Iup President have no bear
ing1 upon anv great political qustons now
awaiiiug public action. They undoubtedly
amuse those who runke them, aud to a certain
extent entertain the lookers-on but they are
quite barren ot any good restiUs to the public.

From the Ueratd.
The secret conclave of the ra iical Coventors
ol the Northern States iu Philadelphia, uf'ter
the adjournment of th? Couventioa ou Tuesday
laM, is one of the mot significant and alariuing
signs of the times. A portion of the proceed
ings leaked out, and i he correspondent of the
Herald gnve the public the bnpHt of that on
Wtidnehdiiy last. But we have the strongest
reasons lor paying Hint the quisiion thr-n ven
tilated about ciodgiusr uegro suilratio was not
the only or most iiuiioriiint one dictiiied by
thi-coi. clave. It is underr-tood that a revolu
tionary pitgtiiiniiH; was eiitertttmed looking to
future political contingencies that is, to pre
paieavnis aud ellicient armed State organization-
for a conflict with tbe conservatives, and
po.-Mbly with the President, in the event of the
radicals being in dunger of losine their power
through tbe result ol the fall elections. It is
evident thut these really aangerous lenders of a
dungeious party tire determined to hoid ou to
their power at all hazards; tor, as Governor
Cony, of Maiue, aid, if tney lose it now, 'then
all is !ot." They are doubtless prepared to im
jiench and icmove the President, and to place
lieu Wade, or some other violent Jacobin, in
his place, aud would resist the legitimate
power ot the (executive to the extent ot culling
out the miiitut of the States. Tne secret aud
threatening attitude of these Governors is the
counterpart ot the meeting of the Governors of
the Hebel bt ales when they seceded and made
warouthu Union. In order that the people
may know who these conspirators against the
Union are we give their names. They are a?
lollovts:
Governor Curtin, of Pennsylvania.
Ex-Governor liuckingbam, of Connecticut.
Governor Cony, oi Maine.
Governor Yates, of Illinois.
Governor Morton, ol Indiana
Governor Marshall, of Minnesota.

Governor Lumsidc, ot Rhode Island.
Kx-(ioveri or Douglass, ol Connecticut.
Eleven Governors of States, besides ex-Gov
eruors ana Lieutenant-Governors, composed this
new secret jnconin uiud. 'tne violent aecnia
tious ot miserable Uiebrands, male and female,
black aud white, in tbe Convention ana at puD-
lic meetings in 1'hiladelpbiu, miirtit not be re
garded as very serious; but it is far ditlerent
with the secret meeting oi a body of men who
have tne executive power or eleven Nortnern
States in their haLds.
There Is danger uhead, und it behooves the
conservative masses ot the North to look to it.
As to the South, there is no dnnzer there. Thu
people of that section have experienced the
horrors of civil wnr to such a degret. and are
so thoroughly subtiueri, tbat thev will nut try
rebelliou uguin. The (lunger Is at home. We
mav have, belore we tire aware ot it. a blood v
civil war in every Suite, conuiy, and city of the
North. Incredulous and easy-going people
muy pooh pooh sucn nn idea, but it is never
theless so. Did not the rebellion of the South
commence in just such a way r Do not all re
bellions, insurrections, and revolutions beein iu
tbe same manner? Never was more violent lan
guage used than that now used by the radicals;
uever were there greater eilorts made to brine
the Executive of the republic into contempt:
and never w as there a more dangerous and wide
spread revolutionary Iceling worked up than at
me present time, a name iikq tnis ouce ligbtea
Mm-Hus wiiu increasing uii v, una il is very aim'
cult to arrest its progress. In all seriousness,
tberetote, we warn the people to watch these
threatening events. Wecull upon them to arouse
themselves beloro it be too lute to avert the
dancers that surround us. Tbe power of the
raaicais must, oe uiiei iy uestroyea, or we shall
