Andrew Johnson's IMan of Revolution.
Yfs published yesterday, from the Washing
ton correspondence of the New York Herald,
what purports to be Andrew Johnson's plan
for preoipitating a revolution. Under ordi
nary circumstances these outgivings would
hardly be worthy of attention, but at the pre
sent time they so clearly ooincide with the
general tenor of Mr. Johnson's acts, that it
may Bafely be assumed that the plan in ques
tion, if not already determined on, is thrown
out as a feeler to see what response it would
be likely to meet with from the people.
It starts out with the extraordinary assump
ti on that the President is entitled to judge of
the constitutionality of the laws passed by
Congress, and that he is not obliged to exe
cute any law which he deems to be unoonsti
tutional. It is one of the ominous signs of the
times, that a doctrine so Inherently absurd as
this, bo opposed to the letter and the spirit of
the Constitution, and ao at war with the fun
damental ideas of our form of government,
should for a moment be ascribed to the Presi
dent by any of his friends. Of oourse suoh
construction would At onoe change the charac
ter of the President from the executive of
republio to that of an absolute monarch. No
laws oould be put in operation except suoh as
he saw fit to execute. His . veto would
become positive, against the unanimous
voioe of the representatives of the people.
There would be no need of a judiciary to de
oide upon the constitutionality of laws, because
that function Would be assumed by the Presi
dent. . lie would be the supreme power in
the Government. Whatever laws did not suit
him he would deoide to be unconstitutional,
and there would be no appeal from his deci
sion. Ho would take the statute-books of the
nation, go through them, and expunge suoh
as did not suit him. . The ground of unconsti
tutionality covers everything. The Constitu
tion, in that event, would be practically the
President's will. ,.
'In aooordanoe with this theory, President
Johnson . holds, in the second plaoe, that he is
the sole judge of what constitutes impeach
able offenses on the part of the President. In
other words, r although -the Constitution ex
pressly provides that the President, and all
the officers of the Government, may be im
peached and removed for "treason, bribery,
' or other high crimes ' and misdemeanors," and
makes the Senate the high court for the trial
of these cases, Mr. Johnson assumes that the
President himself is to decide whether or not
he has oommitted an impeachable offense I
And he volunteers to tell us that the refusal
to execute the laws of the land is not such a
, "misdemeanor" as can be made the ground of
'Impeachment and removal. Of course, no
President would ever acknowledge that he
had oommitted an impeachable offense; so
that the power of impeachment and removal,
, Whioh was intended by the framers of the
Constitution as the final grand remedy of the
nation for crimes and misdemeanors on the
part of its officers,' beoomes, so far as the
' President is concerned, a mere myth.
The final touch is put upon this mad scheme
. by the assertion that if Congress does not acoede
' to this transformation of the President into a
king, and shall proceed to the execution of its
. regular powers under the -Constitution, Mr.
Johnson will at once assume the power of pro-
roguing Congress and ordering the eleotion of
a new one. This is after the kingly fashion
"' of proroguing Parliaments when they beoome
intraotable and obnoxious to the sovereign.
Cut what if, after having got Congress out of
the way, Mr. Johnson should conclude, that It
wasnotboBtto call another one? Suppose a
new one assembled to prove as intraotable as
the present one, are we to have that prorogued
''toot : , : r
Language is not needed to brand such a
'' scheme as this in the eyes of every American
citizen. Of course, it is simple revolution, the
coup d'ttat of a usurper the total overthrow
of the Government. If Mr. Johnson is so de
mented as to suppose that such a schema
would receive any countenance or endorse
ment from the masses of the people, we simply
pity the man. The most popular and power
ful President that we have ever had would
have been a madman to undertake such, a
revolution. If the American people shall
ever choose a king or submit to a dictator,
Andrew Johnson will not be the man. j
Inoredibleas tUa atrocious programme is,
It is gravely put forth by the President's
friends, and is really th, only logical termi
. nation of the course he is aoW pursuing. . He
has already entered upon the first steps of it
In refusing to execute the lawg 0f Conerass
' And its spirit has pervaded his whoU oourse of
conduot from the moment that au aaaasatn's
pistol elevated him to power. 7
Mb. Gbbblbt to-day describes ,the Demo.
orats who surround Mr. Johnson in his usaal
. emphatio style: .
Ilefore Andrew Johnson had been three

we say no more.
A Voice from the Wigwam of a Medicine
Man.
A ienotht advertisement In one of our morn
ing contemporaries, signed W. C. Swann, M.
D., impressed us with the idea that the Doctor
had invented some "Sea Shell Tonic," "Utah
Balsam," or "Infallible Lotion," and that the
merits of his discovery were being laid before
long-suffering publio in a rather verbose
form. A closer inspection, however, revealed
to us that the medicine described was not in
tended for a physioal, but a political use, and
that what we first mistook for minute direc
tions as to the application of the salve, was
really a picture of the present unhappy condi
tion of the body politic. The prescription
given is a rather unusual one, for, while all
the ills are carefully set forth, we do not have
any adequate remedy suggested, unless the
invitation to "come to our meetings" (loca.
tion unknown) may be received as a remedy.
Now, whatever may be Dr. Swann's ability as
a medicine mao, he certainly was not intended
as a rival to Hamilton or Jefferson in the
production of State papers. The document
before us is an extremely peculiar one, and
after reading it we can only say with Weller,
"There's richness."
The first thing that strikes us is that
although the address is in the plural and the
"we" and "us" maintained throughout, yet
it seems to be the sole emanation of Dr.
Swann. In all political manifestoes which
we have ever seen, except the "alarms" of
Colorado Jewett or George Francis Train, the
eecretaries as well as the chairman signed,
but here Dr. Swann rules supreme. We
really thought that the Johnson party was
larger than that. We never dreamt that it
could not boast of three secretaries. The
Doctor may be proud of his position, for he
resembles the boy who boasted of being No
2 in his class, but he was obliged to confess
that the class consisted of "me and another
boy." lie seems to be literally monaroh of all
he surveys in politics.
Having no one to please but himself, he has
drawn up an address whioh will doubtless
please no one except the constituents whom
he had to consult. lie commences with the
conundrum, "What lowering and gloomy
clouds envelope us as a nation f " and, like
the Sphynx, leaves us to solve the riddle for our
selves. Doctor, we confess frankly, we give
it up.
Then follows the following enlivening sketch
of our condition: "With high rents, extrava
gant prices of ordinary living, and with great
depression in all the varied industrial pur
suits of the country, we cannot resist the con
viotion that there is something in the manage
ment of our affairs that demands reform and
change."
In this the Doctor and the Republican party
perfectly agree. The country does demand
change, we only differ as to what change is
required. We may as well add here that we
use the term "Doctor" for short, instead of
"National Union City Executive Committee."
It saves composition, and, as the terms are
ajrnnnjrmnna. it cannot- matter much.. Which
title is applied.
Lest, however, our readers should be so
cast down, by the dreadful pioture presented
as to seek in a more congenial clime rest iu
freedom, we would state that the Doctor "is
not prepared to despair of the safety of the
Republio," but we grieve to add that he feels
himself "compelled to say that there is danger
and wreck in our future history unless the
great heart of the nation is invoked to action,
and the majesty of the people aroused to
aesert and defend our rights under a Consti
tutional Government."
Thus, just as we breathed freer, we are cast
back into the slouch of despond. We would
casually remark that the Doctor's metaphors
are rather mixed. What with "wrecks,"
"hearts," "invocations," and being "aroused,"
we have no very clear picture of the kind of
danger to whioh we are to be subjected. It Is
an open question whether it is a shoal or an
attack of pericarditis. Then follows an ex
tended description of the Constitution and the
working of our institutions, which are neither
very new ' nor very well set forth. A tirade
against Congress is thrown in by way of a
condiment. But all this is but a preface to
the "statement of our purposes and objects
They are six:
1. That there Is no power In Congress or
in
the Federal Government to deny to any ritate
representation in the national councils.
i. That there la no power in uougress or else
where to ebtabllsu una maintain iniuuary
governments in any mate of the Aiaenoau
Tlnlon in time of Deaoe.
3. That there 1 no power in uongress to inter
fvo wit h Dm elective franchise.
4. We are opposed to an increase of the publio
debt, national, State, and city.
5. That we lavor reform in our nnjuoiai
affairs: reform lu the mode of collecting taxes:
reform la the matter of the deposits of the
mi hi ii moiiHYK! retorin iu our currency.
6. That we Juvor protection to Amelloan In
dnalrv: In such manner, however, that tbe
working man may be protected, as well as the
capitalist.
"If so be as how, then why not ?" Here we
see Bunsby in all his glory. Who is not In
favor of reform f of decreasing the debt f of
protection T of opposition to despotism, and the
like ? We do not intend, Doctor, to question
that two and two make four. But we really
do not see very clearly what the last "state
ment" means. If it. means anything, whioh
we reserve for future consideration, we sup
pose that we must wait until the details are
"referred to at another time." In truth, the
address of the Dootor reminds one of the bar
Km order of "Falstau'" a "ha" penny
wonh. of bread and a bushel of
saok"..a, column of ' words and I
paragraph 0f ideas. We therefore would
seriously advae the Doctor to keep to 'pre
soripuons for tu physique, and let the political
wonu atone to acWiBe the individual aud let
liumanity hi the aggregate take care of itself.
yniess x,r. owann refor, wa fear we wm
uuve iu eiass mra
in thtt fiifnro urtth Ilia
Jewetts ana the Trains of the nominal world,
' For the sake of Lis reputation as a gentleman
of ability and sound common sense, whioh we
freely grant him, we hope that "the details"
will not be "referred to at another time."
Wb see that the base-ball fever still rages,
and dozens of young men, who should be de
voting their time to business, are wasting it
in hitting at a ball with a heavy stick. Iu
moderation, as an exercise, we approve of the
game; as a business, we think that neither the
morale nor the finances of Young America will
be improved by Its popularity.
The Land Fraud In Germantown.
Wh have received the following noto from one
of the counsel for Mr. J.diD.'on, which we pub
lish, although we do not see that it alters the
case In the least. The case in Ni si Prius wan
immediately connected with the original suit
for forgery, aud crew out of it.
To (he Kditur of The Owning Telegraph:
I rollco in your Issue of Thursday au editorial
enllthd "An Important Law Case," roforrlna;
to certain leiial proceedings In whloli Charles H.
Johnson is concerned as to Hie alleged forglna
of a deed ot property in Germantown. A you
have been pleased to givo special prominence to
the subject by making it matter of editorial
comment, I deem it my duty to correct oertiiln
misstatements contained in tnat article, ana
therefore renueRt vou to nubllHh this note. It
should not be said that the deed referred to was
forged by Mr. Johnson until the final judgment
of the Court Is reudered In the prosecution for
forgery Instituted against him. his counsel are
sul if fled tbnt it was not, and although, thrre hru
been the verdict of a Jury agaitut him, yet a motion
lor a new trial ana in arrest ox judgment una
been duly made which yet remains to he beard.
To sustain this motion we believe there are
good, reasonable, and sutllclent grounds. The
clicumstnuces also under which the trial took.
i lure. Mr. Johnson then being utterly uuable
to secure tho presence of imporiant witnesses,
aud being compelled to go to trial without
litem, should .cause a suspension of your Judg.
ment until the nroceedlnus are finally closed.
The statement that Mr. Johnson has been sen
tenced is erroneous, as you can understand that
such could not take place until the disposition
ot the motion rererreu to. Tne case recently
heard in the Supreme Court at Nisi Trlns, re
ferred to In your editorial, is an entirely dif
ferent proceeding. The motion there argued
arose from a Sheriff's sale of the Germantown
property by the Messrs. Norrls, the holders of
the mortgage, as the property of Mr. Johnson.

GEN. SHERIDAN'S VIEWS OF THE SITUATION.
A St. Louis correspondent, under date of Sep
tember 10, reports the reception of Sheridan in
that city, and adds the following views, given
by Sheridan himself, of the situation lu the re
gion of bis former command:
In private Interviews he stated that be believed
tbat the policy 01 Cougress, If riKidly adhered to, will
reconstruct the South ou a iirm aud euduriug basis.
Any departure Ironi that policy, be stild, gave en
couragement to the Rebels and retarded the restora
tion 01 the era of good feeling. There Is nothing so
much to be dreaded In the (south, especially in Louisi
ana aud Texas, as the belief In the minds of lute
KebeU that they may herealter nbtalu baiter terms
by holding out against the preseul itecoustructloa
POl'eierring to afla'rs In New Orleans, It transpired
tl at the greatest trouble General Sheridan had to cud
tend against was the altitude aisumed by Governor
Wells aud bis peculiar friends. This clique wis
small In number but treat in malignity, and after the
removal of Wells from the Governor's chair, spared
uu opportunity to ma'lgn the General and all his
nieanures. For example, they complained that he
kenl In nfllce notorious Kebels, omltiing to add thai
said Kebels bad been appointed by the Governor
himself. They occupied au anomalous position
and annoyed the Commanding General incemuntiy.
Wells deserted theradlcals after they had made him
Lieutenant-Governor and lolued the Keoela. frlor to
ihe July riot he deHoried the Kebels and trld tu i re
join the radicals. Kut neither paity would own him
al'tf r bin double desertion, ar d thus he was a sort or
political Ishmat lne, with bis bauds raised against alt
and all bands agalnitt him. Thle small mlHculevous
element in New Orleans was cunstamly snspplug at
the General's heel, and howled for Joy when he lell.
General Sheridan Is the personification of the mili
tary man. lie staled emphatically that he was no
poliilein.il. and did not desire to talk politics, bin aia
not regard the question 01 reconstruction as a puliiloal
quern luu any more than loyalivtothe Governiiieut.
It was above mere purly or polities; and whatsallsilea
him that the policy of Conxrrss was Hunt, was that
every one of ti. e blatant. BKltaiing, pou-llghtlug ue
bels denounced It. General Hheridan Bald he haU raa'i
the ads rf Congees sent him by General ura u,

said acs hud been passed by another sort ot Congress,

A Town in Difficulties. The Ungliali town
of Leamington is in chancery. A sequestra
tion has issued for the infraction of a pre
viously issued injunction. The collector , of
rates cannot pay in a penny to the treasurer,
nor can the treasurer advance a like sum to
the looal board. This condition of things is
very unpleasant to the latter body, but it is
their own fault. . .
"Jolly Men." This is an English name for
itinerant traders who coax poor people to buy
their wares, and then throw them into prison
when they fail to pay. The l'ly mouth guar
dians of the poor have conferred with the judge
of the county court upon the subject. He
was quite as anxious as they are to stop the
operations of these scoundrels, but thought
an act of Parliaineut would be needed for (he
purpose. , ...
