The Great Unimpeached Denounces
Grant "No Soul, No Ideas, No
Policy" He Discusses Va
rious Questions with
Remarkable
Coolness.
A crreponilcntof the N. Y. lit raid lust, even
ing eouvtrcd with ex-Freldent Johnson, lie
describe the Interview ae follows:
Johnson's Arrival.
Ex-Frcsldcnt Johnson arrived here this even
ing, and was waited upon soon after, reaching
the Metropolitan Hotel by your correspondent,
who found the ex-President comfortably quar
tered in one of Shelly's beet parlors, and looking
quite fresh nnd hearty. Andrew Johnson, plaiu
citizen, received your correspondent with the
some cordiality and kindness that distinguished
him so highly while an occupant of the White
House.
"Glad to see you, fllr," said the ex-President,
ftt the same time handing a chair to your
correspondent, and sitting down himself. "Sit
down, elr."
WtaiU He Came Far.
Corresponndent I came to pay my respects,
Mr. Johnson, and at the same time to learn If
there was any particular object in yoifr visit.
Andy Johnson Nothing public, elr. I have
some private business to attend to here, and I
have also a son at Georgetown College, the only
son left to mo now. 1 came to see him and
attend the commencement of that college.
Correspondent I believe, Mr. Johnson, you
are the first President since the time of John
Qulncy Adams who has revisited the capital
aiccr retiring irom tne wnite i louse.
Andy Johnson (laughing) Really, sir, I don't
know how that is. My attention was never
directed to the point before, it may be so, how
ever. II Ik Kstlnmte of Grant.
Correspondent Well, Mr. Johnson, to change
the subject, what do they now think ef this ad-
uinistration down in lennessee t
Andy Johnson I don't know that you ought
to ask me such a question. People would be
very likely to attribute an unfavorable opinion
from me as prompted by Improper motives. You
know very well, sir, for you were familiar with
my views while I was President, what my esti
mate of Grant was, and I don't know of any
thing that has since occurred that has caused me
to change my mind the slightest. I know Grant
thoroughly. I had ample opportunity to study
him when I was President, and I am convinced
he is the greatest farce that was ever thrust upon
a people.
There la Nothing Good In nim. -
Why, the little fellow excuse me for using
the expression, but I can't help pitying him the
little fellow has nothing in him. He hasn't a
single idea. He has no policy no conception
of what the country requires. He don't under
stand the philosophy of a single great question,
and is completely lost in trying to understand
his situation. He is mendacious, cunning, and
treacherous. He lied to me flagrantly,
and I convicted him by my whole Cabinet; but
that even would have been tolerable were it the
only instance, but it was not. He lied on many
other occasions. I tell yon, sir, Grant is nothing
more than a bundle of petty spites, jealousies,
and resentments. And yet they say Grant is a
" second Washington! Only think of it! When
you compare him with Washington or Jefferson,
where Is be ?
The fnlinpeached Pities.
Whey be Is so small you must put your finger
on him. He, a little upstart, a coward, physi
cally and intellectually, to bo compared to
George Washington I Why, it makes me
laugh. I have more pity for the man
than contempt, for I have no spite against him.
But I fear for the country when such man is
likened to the Father of bis Country.
Why, just look at the inaugural of
Washington. He speaks about his fear
and trembling in accepting the Presidency, even
after all his experience and success. But this
- little fellow Grant, an upstart, a mere accident
of the war, a creature without the ability to com
prehend the philosophy of a single great ques
tion, rays in his Inaugural, "I know the respon
sibility is great, but 1 accept It without fear' Is
that like Washington or Jefferson ? Pshaw 1 It's
monstrous to think of. Grant, I tell you, sir,
Las no ideas, no policy.
Grant Pnffereth by Comparison.
Why, Washington considered that a man's
greatuess was measured by his morality, by the
standard of his soul. And 1 have always con
sidered that the more soul a man had, the more
. he developed the soul or intellect within him,
the more godlike he became. But, sir, Grant
has nothing. Physically and mentally and
morally he is a nonentity. Why, sir, his
soul is so small that you could put it within
the periphery of a hazel nutshell, aud it
might flout about for a thousand years without
knocking against the walls of the shell. ThacS
the size of his soul. J ut look at the man sitting
at a Cabinet council. He has no Idea, no policy,
no standard, no creed, no faith. How can he
guide the people ? How can he impress any
great Improvements or moral ideas upon the
nation ? He has no object to look forward to,
no leading aim to draw the people towards any
particular end. Ho sits there with his Cabinet.
Our Moses Is Probably Jealous.
One member has bought him a house in Phila
delphia, another has given him $05,000, another
has given him a carriage, and so on. It is de
grading to the ottlce of President of the United
States to have such a man there. They talk
about bis generalship. Well, be was a mere in
' cident of the war. Men and arms were supplied
in abundance, and his forces were so massive that
they simply crushed out the Rebellion. It
would have been done had Grant never been
born. Therefore he wad a mere Incident. But
the little fellow has come to think he Is some
body really. I can't help pitying him when I
think how well I know him. una what an Infi
nitesimal creature he really is. I often think
that about the fittest place for Grant is at some
place in the country where there are cross roads.
He Adopts a Nasblan Figure. .
I bave been at those places, and have often
noticed the scenes. At one corner perhaps
" there is a small blacksmith shop. At another
corner of the cross-roads there Is a grocery
store, and at another a place where the squire
meets to settle cases. Well, I have often
noticed at such a junction of several roads that
when the squire's business Is over some
fellows will propose a horse race, and to give In
terest to the tiling a barrel of cider and perhaps
a half gallon of whisky will bo staked on the
result. Now Grant is just suited to such a situa
tion. His ideas are of the cross-roads order,
and he has not a thought above that.
The Blnrsted Aristocracy.
Correspondent What do you think of tho
general situation now ?
Andy Johnson Well, I think we are tending
to despotism or anarchy, unless a proper
direction is given to the disorderly elements
at work. We are threatened with an aristo
cracy of bondholders. A moneyed aristo
cracy, they' say, is the moit detestable;
but a credit aristocracy, which is only
the shadow of the substitute for money Is worse
still; for It is tho moneyed aristocracy diluted
and adulterated. I say the bondholder is a
' credit aristocrat. Here Is the producer, raising
his wheat or his corn. What Is it worth to hliu?
He sells it for the credit f the bondholder.
Xbe bondholder gives lii credit to the pro
ducer in exchange for the latter oods, and
eaj s, "You may take our credit, but wo will put
the gold and silver into our pockets and
take your produce also." When by and
by the producer finds tho credit valueless, what
will he be worth? When the great revulsion
comes, what will be our condition? Where is
all the gold and silver that has been dug from
our own soil and coined in our own mints?
Where is it all 'gone? Can yon tell mo, sir? I
don't speak of such as we imported, but what
we coined ourselves that vast amount dug out
of our own earth. Why, it is locked up in the
vaults of the credit aristocracy.
Andrew Would Repudiate.
Now, sir, It is a singular thing that no country
yet has ever paid off a great national debt with
out repudiation. It may startle you to hear it.
but it is true. Look over history and yon will
find I am right, and wherever you will find a
permanent national debt, one that has not been
paid off, you will find there is no freedom.
Spain is not free, France is not free, Russia is
not free, England is not free, because each of
thopo countries has a permanent national
debt. It Is in the nature of things, for wherever
there are power and moneyed aristocracy, there
is always a desire for a uuion between the two.
Here we have an executive power controlled by
the bondholders. Grant is ruled by a miserable
set of hucksters and bondholders, lie is in their
hands completely, and therefore wo are in dan
ger. Tho country is in peril for. tho bond
holders are striving to rule the Government.
The people ought to be made to understand this
condition. '
Hero He Ho drill.
I have no hesitation in declaring
that Grant is a mean, avaricious, cunning, spite
ful man a complete bundle of petty Jealousies,
spites, and lies. He has no courage. I made him
fairly quail before my glanco at that Cabinet
meeting when I asked him about
that famous correspondence concern
ing Btanton. I asked him ques
tion after question, and ho quailed. When I
finished he stood up, took his hat in his hand,
and in a mean, sneaking way, said, "Gentlemen,
have you any more questions to ask ?" and
slunk out of the room. I convicted him of lying
and cowardice then, and you remember all about
it, sir, for you published it at the time.

Items of News from Our Exchanges.
A C'ONrEHMON. Pedro, a Spaniard now in
the Parish Prison, one of the men who was hired
to and did assassinate a sailor named Ambrosio,
and, after stabbing him half-a-dozen times, threw
him Into the river, just now makes a voluntary
confession to the Attorney-General of one more
of his crimes of how he assisted to set fire to a
store near the levee for pay. His employer hav
ing failed to liquidate his promises Is now ex
posed by the man who, for a paltry sum, would
deliberately destroy property by the torch, and
endanger the lives of hundreds of citizens.
PedWs blood moneywas given in the shape of
a note of hand for $500; but when Pedro's attor
ney presented the note for payment he was met
by a flat refusal. On the spur of this, the accused
sent for the Attorney-General and delivered him
self of the confession as aforesaid. JVeio Orleans
Hepublican.
Determined to Vote. In Boston, on Thurs
day, while tho inspectors in Ward Six were re
posing after the fatigue of counting about a
hundred and fifty votes mostly in favor of tho
annexation of Dorchester and while the audi
ence consisted of two policemen, one venerable
citizen, and a small soy, Miss Lizzie Harrison
entered the room and requested that her name
be placed on the check list. She was politely
Informed that that process was the special func
tion of the city clerk, and that the warden and
inspectors had no power In tho matter. She
then demanded the fight to vote. The warden
told her that could not be done. Miss Harrison
then declared her right to vote, and without
excitement of manser threw a ballot on top of
one of the boxes and departed.
The United States and Denmark. Gene
ral Raasloff speaks of his mission to the United
(states, the differences between the late rresl
dent and Congress, and adds: - 1
"In no part of the United 8tates have I found
a want of friendship for Denmark, and many
calm and impartial persons have expressed to
me sincere regret at the delay in ratifying the
treaty for the sale of St. Thomas. It must not
be left out of view that the treaty bos not been
reiected: the ratification has been only ad
journed, and this adjournment Is due to tho atti
tude taken by a number ot wise statesmen, tue
most remarkable of whom is my friend the Hon.
Charles bumner, one of the most able and ex
perienced statesmen of our epoch, who has,
during many years, been the leader of the Senate
ia all that concerns foreign affairs, and who
never loses sight of the regard and considera
tion due by one power to a friendly nation."
A Funny Affair. A , funny little affair
occurred in Paris on Corpus Christ! day at the
Church of the Madeleine. The clergy la their
most gorgeous vestments, followed by yourg
gins in wnue, were moving ia proces
sion around the building uuder the pil
lars outside,' when, at tho moment the
cure raised tho Host, one of tho spectators
was observed to remain standing with his hat
on. Several persons near him requested him to
behave with decorum or leave the place, but ho
broke out in an insulting tirade against religion,
priests, and devotees, calling the latter fools
aud Idiots. . At this, an individual who had
hitherto said nothing, but who now appeared
unablo to restrain his indignation, stepped for
ward and struck the disturbcra blow in tho face
so violent that two of his teeth were broken.
The police interfered and took both men before
the Commissary of Police, when it was dlsco
verd that the champion of tho Holy Sacrament
was not a Catholic but a Jew. lie had been
present only as a spectator, and said he bad
been disgusted with the Insolence of the brawler,
and as he knew that Christians are forbidden by
their religious laws to. avcTige injuries, ho had
interfered in their behalf. When Jews geto
fighting for the Sacraments, the millennium may
be at our doors;
Hancock's Narkow Escape. How near
General Hancock came to being defeated by
Grant on the Presidential course is thus related
In a New York letter to tho Chicago Journal:
Tho Pennsylvania Democracy are beginning to
talk of General Hancock as their candidate at
the next Gubernatorial Convention. So far as I
can learn, he can have the nomination If he will
accept of it. But do you remember he wrote a
private letter (which was afterwards published)
to one of tho delegates of the Tammany Na
tional Convention, lost July, wherein he gave
instruction to have the second place on the
ticket declined, In ease the first was withheld ?
Had it not been for this a fact not generally
known Hancock would have been assigned
to the place given Blair. Neither has the
country ever known how Hancock came nearly
being nominated for the first place on the
ticket. The programme was all arranged. Tho
vote for him steadily increased on every suc
ceeding ballot, and he would bave been the
nominee in fifteen minutes later, had the con
vention not suddenly adjourned one afternoon.
So confident were ids friends in Washington
that be was to be nominated that afternoon
that, after 1 o'clock, they hastily extemporized
the necessary arrangements for giving him a
rousing serenade. Fifteen minutes before the
convention adjourned a dospateh was sent to
General Hancock through the Franklin Line, by
one of bis friends a delegate which road In
this wise: "You are the man, sure. Ia two
more ballots you will certainly be nominated."
After enjoying the pleasant emotions excited by
perusing this telegram, Seymour's subsequent
nomination must have been decided damper
to the General's spirits.

' Washington, June 88 The correspondence
which appeared in your columns on Saturday,
credited td the New York Herald, professing to
give the letter, which passed between Hon.
Adolph E. Borle, the late Secretary of tho Navy,
and President Grant, was a fabrication from be
ginning to end. It was manufactured out of the
whole cloth. Tho letter which the President did
send to Mr. Borie was written in the warmest
terms of friendship: he regretted tho necessity
for tho Secretary resigning, spoke in apprecia
tive terms of his faithful administration of hU
office, and assured him of a continuance of his
sincere regards. There has never been any
thing but the most cordial relations and most
perfect confidence between the President and
Mr. Boric, and the resignation of the latter was
for no other reasons than those already stated,
failing health and the necessity for attending to
his private affairs.

'. Washington, June 28. Cubans here this
morning received advices up to the 18th instant,
which confirm the previous reports of the preva
lence of cholera nnd fever nmonj: the Spanish
troops. The mortality is said to bo very t;roat.
in several portions of the Maud their line of
communication Is cut off, and they are suffering
for want of food aud medicine. The Spanish
army has lost t-inco the commencement of the
revolution more than half of their force hi
lmttlo and by disease and desertions. The
Spaniards have been concentrating in tho Cluca
Villas district, and collisions are of almost daily
occurrence. The reinforcements which were
sent from C'uniaatuey attacked the Cubans, and
were defeated. They were compelled to retreat
with a loss of over three hundred killed
and wounded. The loss of tho Cubans
was less than one hundred. The Cuban forces
from Jaquey Grande attacked the Spaniards near
Falmidas, defeated a large force of regulars aud
volunteers, and captured that town, with the
provisions and arms which were stored there.
The expedition which landed at Nuevns Grandcs
succeeded in joining the main body of the Cuban
army with but little dllliculty. It numbered six
hundred men, all in good health nnd spirits.
They were received with jrreat rejoicing. The Cu
ban army is said to be iu good flghtiug condition,
and the leaders arc determined to follow up tliulr
recent victories, nnd uro confident of success.
They have .as yet suffered but little from disease,
as they occupy elevated and healthy positions

l'liiiernl of the Wile of lion. . V. Woodward.
Sj reial Detpatch to The Eccniny Telegraph.
Wii.kesharke, Pa., Juno 28. The funeral of
Mrs. Sarah E. Woodward, wife of Hon. George
W. Woodward, the Representative of this dis
trict in Congress, who died ou Friday last,
took place here yesterday and was very largely
attended by all classes of people, who came to
pay their last tribute of respect to the deceased,
who was held in the highest esteem in this com
munity. mining News
presents no new feature, everything being at
about the status of a week ago. Nearly all the
individual operators have practically agreed to
the basis, and are working to the fullest extent
of their capacity.
The mines of tho Pennsylvania Coal Com
pany, at Fittstou, are being worked to the full
extent, nnd shipping a largo amount of coal
daily. All signs of the strike have disappeared
in these mines. The Delaware and Hudson and
Delaware, Lackawanna, and Westmoreland Com
panies' men still stay out. A great number have
obtained employment at other coal works, and
many have gone to work building railroads. So
dcternilued are they not to succumb, that they
will do anythiug to earn a living rather than to
accept a cent less than the basis prescribed by
the Grand Council.
The resumption of work throughout tho entire
coal reeiou has not been as gcueral as previously
reported.
The disaffected men are orderly and forbear
ing, apparently under the entire control of their
leaders. .

There Is no perceptible change In the main fea
tures of the Money market to-day. The denmnd for
money Is not very pressing, the wants of merchants
being Invariably list lit ut this season ; but the supply
of uirrcncr bus beeu so much reduced during the
past week, chiefly In the interest of the woof and
i;rniu trudes of tho West and cotton from the South,
that our bunks have little to spare after supplying
the current wants of regular customers. Ou the
street money Is In suiurleiit supply, but much clfort
Is mude to create au Impression of scarcity, with a
view of putting on the screw.
Cull loans are firm at 6" 7 per cent, according to
the offerings, 6 per cent, prevuillug on Government
securities. JJiseounting is done at the banks for
customers at Tm 8 per cent., but ou the street the rate
Is fully a eg higher.
The old market is very quiet but steady, the ten
dency of prices being upward. Opening sales at
1:171, ; at noon ut 1U7 V The transactions pi Govern

The Hew York Money Market.
The Herald says:
"The course of the markets la Wall street during; ,
the week hinged upon the announcement from the .
Secretary of the Treasnry that with the advent of
the new fiscal year, beginning July 1, he would ma-
tertally modify his policy as to the sales of Uoveru- ;
meat gold and pnrchases of Government bonds. "
The eilectg of this change were reflected by an- :
tleipatlon in the. various ramifications of bust- 1
ncsB, but more Immediately and promptly in -the
price of gold, which advanced to the ;
highest point of the week, when Mr. Bontwellfi In
tentions were made public through the Washington
newspaper despatches, and through the publication
of the letter of instructions to the Assistant Trea- .
surer in this city. It Is an nnfortnnate accompani
ment of the event that the speculating eliques were '
the llrst to get possession of the news. Mr. Bout-
well owes It to himsrir and to the public that this
piece of jobbery in his office should be fully Inves- :
tigated. He gave the publics promise, In his speech -at
the Stock Exchange, that ho would not lead htm- 1
Belf to the Wall street gamblers, and went as far as -to
Institute a rule thut the doings of his department :
should not lie communicated to outsiders until after '
the close of banking hours each day. Yet the lm
porta nt Intelligence was known lu Wall street early '
on Monday and was very profitably used by the .
cliques. The problem In gold is undergoing a great '
many e (Torts at solution. The now pollov of the
Government, which contemplates the sale of a mil-
lion of gold every other week Instead of two mil
lions per week, as heretofore. Is an Important
element in the calculation. The faith of the
speculators in the highest price attained during the r
week was not a firm one, for they unloaded at it, ,
and gave evidence of an nnwllltngness to further
operate, as a result of which the market drifted to
ngurcs controlled by more legitimate influences. The i
tendency to settle, induced by the withdrawal of 1
their support, was checked by an advance in foreign .
exchange, which seemed In some respects artificial,
and suggested the suspicion that some of the holders
of gold had not, as yet, got from under their loads, -and
were still'enlng the market as a means to their "
doing so prolltably. The price reacted and then be- '
came steady until the very close of business on
Saturday, when there was a slight yielding." ,
