TUE PRESIDENT. It is hard to say which quality of President Johnson is most to be admired, his patience or his candor. In the midst of overwhelming official business, he takes time to receive frequent deputa tions and to listen to long harangues, and to each he accords a frank and friendly reply. The gentlemen fiom ltontana,who went to see him the other day, had no business except to advertise their territory, which, from their ac count, is a species of Paradise, with all the modern improvements. But the President received them graciously, and indulged them in one of those sensible, candid, off-hand speeches for which he seems to have a peculiar gift. He took occasion to define his position, which is that of a man who has one great, para mount duty to perform: that of restoring the country to a condition of secure Union as speedily as possible, without reference to combinations having in view a candidacy for the next Presi dency. Having reached the top round of the political ladder, he can have no higher aspirations. That he is sincere in thisassurance we have not the slightest doubt. The reception given to the colored deputation, headed by Messrs. Douglass and Downing, gave another illustration of the qualities we have referred to as characteristic of the President. He lis tened respectfully to their arguments in favor of the immediate removal of all the disabilities that their race labors under, and then responded at length in a friendly way; nor did he suffer his temper to be ruffled by the several ill timed and inconsiderate interruptions that were offered., While acknowledg ing that they had good ground for com plaint, he showed conclusively that their best policy is to be patient. Their race has gained immensely, within a few years, and in a few years more, if they pursue the right course, they will gain all they aspire to, without running the risk of bringing on convulsions which may be ruinous to them and damaging to . the whole country. This is 'uns4uestionably TOWER NALL, No. 518 Market Street, BIINITETT & CO. the true -policy, although it may not be approved by extremists and irresponsible I parties. The President of the United States has a laborious and unpleasant office at all times- i but the present totally unpre cedentedstate of affairs in the country makes it a peculiarly difficult one. Mr. Johnson has shown himself, thus far, as well qualified for the duties as his strongest admirers have declareFlhitn to be. ' Scarcely any man in such a position could have made so few mistakes; and this is the more remarkable, considering the infinite varieties of pressure brought to bear upon him from politicians of all kinds and of every part of the country. He has kept by him the constitutional advisers of President Lincoln, and we really believe that the steps he has taken are those that would have been taken by hisipredecessor, had he lived. He has received the praise of the Democrats who used to abuse him so vilely, and yet he has appointed no Democrats to office and has not abandoned a particle of the principles of the party that elected him. In all that he has done and may yet do, there may be certain points on which we may differ from him. But he is the President, and has thus far proved honest, able and true. We condemned the factious hostility of the copperheads to President Lincoln, and we shall equally condemn factious hostility to President Johnson. Should he commit any flagrant wrong, deny any portion of the people their constitutional rights, or be guilty of any act of usurpation what ever, he will then be a fair object of opposition. But he has done none of these things, and he has done so many good things, that he is entitled to the confidence, respect and support of every good citizen. THZ IMPROVEMENT OF BROAD STREET. The hopes of our citizens, who, with few exceptions, are anxious for the im provemen, of Broad street, and freeing it from the nuisance of railroad tracks, we trust are soon to be realized. The provisions of the proposed Act of As sembly, now before Councils for their sanction and recommendation to the Legislature, seem to be fair and proper, and we cannot forbear to wish such action on their part. Certainly the manner in which this propdsed legisla tion has been brought befofe Councils merits our hearty approval. Council men, when true to the obligations of their trust, are better judges of the interests and wishes of our people on purely local subjects, than members of the Legislature could possibly be, and thus first submitting this proposed act to them for their consideration, the gentlemen moving in the matter have followed a custom more honored in the breach than the observance. The dis credit which members of the Legislature bring upon themselves, as well as in juries to communities, •could, we think, be obviated by compelling, either by rules or positive enactment, every pro posed law or charter affecting a city or local in its character, to be first sub mitted to and approved by the muni cipal authorities. The Legislature have given a sort of recognition to this idea by a common practice of not interfering with the local bills of each other, and, however kindly intended, has been productive of vast injury to the public, though sometimes profitable to the in dividual members themselves. A local bill is presented in manuscript, referred to a committee, duly manipulated by the members interested, reported back to the Legislature and passed. The public have no chance to examine its provisions or discuss them, and all it knows is the title to the act. Even the titles were drawn with such consummate skill, and so well sugar-coated, that the frauds and poison they concealed created such abuse and injuries that the Consti tution of the Commonwealth had to be amended in 1864, and since then the titles to bills -are required to disclose the object of them. As an illustration of this secret and dangerous legislation,we need only refer to the "alleged corporation" of the Cen tral Passenger Railway Company, many years ago, incorporated as the North Philadelphia Plank Road Company. Enterprising persons manipulated this harmless concern, Mader the titles of "supplement" and "further supplement than act to incorporate" this plank road company, until it budded, blossomed and gave promise of becominga gigantic railroad company, authorized to occupy Broad street and all other streets of our city, with dummies, locomotives, coal and frieght cars. That it is now merely a runt among the litter of similar schemes, is due to organic defects, and the astute ness of the Supreme Court. Had these "supplements" and "further supplements" been fairly presented to this community through the Councils, and public attention drawn to these provisions, the Legislature might have been spared the travails of its birth, and its promoters and the residents on Broad streets saved many sleepless and anxious nights in the struggle over its existence. In common with all our fellow citizens, we prefer to look forward to the beauti fying of Broad street under the provi sions of the proposed act before Councils, rather than to the provisions of the "supplement" and "further supplements to the act to incorporate the North Philadelphia Plank Road Company." MR. J&avis's MATINEES.—Ttie preceding concerts of this interesting series give as surance that the remainder will be worthy a liberal support from the musical public. The third is announced for Thursday, 15th inst., at 4 P. AL, at the Foyer of the Academy. Mr. Jarvis will be assisted by Messrs. Gaertner, Schmitz and other professors. Mr. Jarvis is acknowledged to be a pianist of the first rank and all that he and the artists assisting him may undertake will be well done.
