oblates Meeting at ther:Aiamienijr..•
Saturday evening quite a fair audience, as
to numbers, assembled at the Academy. of
Music, the occasion bei,ng the inauguration
of a "National Union Johnson Club."
Quite a large portion of the parqnette was
occupied by ladies and gehtlemen attending
them. On the stage were the officers and
members of the. Club, with invited- guests.
Tickets were required to admit spectators
and participants. The meeting was not a
gathering of Unionists 'pure and simple.
_ %Many, hundreds - of the participants
_were
aopperheads, and some of them were very ,
well-known professors of that political
faith. Supposing there to have been two
thousand persons present we can safely say
that one thousand of them did not vote for
Lincoln and Johnson, nor: did, they` ever
vote for a Repoblican or Vrdonist. During
the evening the sentiments of the speakers
were either feebly applauded or feebly,
hissed, the sentiments of the meeting, being
plainly divided.
The meeting was organized by selecting
Henry Simons, Preddent of the Club, as
iGhturmart. Be explained ~t he object of the
gathering to be to inaugurate a Club pledged
to the support of President Johnsen and his
policy for the restoration of the Union.
Col. Joseph R.-Plattigert, Chairinan of the .
Cemmittee of Arrangements, was then in
troduced to read theresolutions, , or'platform
of the Club, as follows:
- I. Resoked,-That we are now, as hereto
-
*re, ardently attached to the Union of the
States` under the Constitution 'of the United
States; that we deny the right of any State
to secede, and hold that all attempts at se
cession are null and void; that all the'States
are now States of the Union, es before the
rebellion, and we deny the power of the
Meneral Government, under the Constita
tion,lo exclude a State -from the Uuion, or
Flo govern it as a Territory:
Re.solved, That our confidence in the
ability; integrity,patriotism and statesman
ship of President Johnson is undiminished,
and We cordially ar.prOve the general
affhis administration. • •
3. _Resolved, That we Stulorte the resolu
tion of the Congress ofTuly, 1861, declaring
the object of the war on our part to be the
defence and maintenance of the supremacy
of the Constitution and the preservation of
the Union, with the dignity, equality and
rights of the several States unimpaired.
4. Resolved, That in the language of the
Chicago platform of 1860, and as quoted by
'the late President Lincoln in his first inau
gural address, "The maintenance invio
late of the rights of the States, and especi
ally the rights of each State to order and
control its own domestic institutions accord
big to its own judgment exclusively, sub
ject only to the Constitution of the United
States, is essential to the balance of power
on which the perfection and endurance of
our political fabric depends.
Resolved. That under the constitution of
the United States is reserved to the several
States the right to prescribe the qualifica
tions of electors therein; sunhat it. would
be subversive of the principles of the Go
vernment for Congress to force universal
suffrage upon any portion of the country in
opposition to the known wishes of the citi
zens thereof.
6. Resolved, "That this Union must be
. and remain i nseparable forever;" that the
war its for preservation having been brought
lo a triumphant close, and the supremacy
Of the Constitution vindicated, the rights of
the States under the Constitution are to be
maintained inviolate, and that the loyal
citizens within the States and districts lately
overrun by rebellion are entitled to all
.the rights guaranteed to them by the Con
stitution. .
7. Besodved, That all the States of the
Union are entitled by: the Constitution of
the United States to representation >in the
cortneib3 of the nation, and that all loyal
members, duly elected awl returned,having
the requisite qualifications as prescribed by
abould be admitted to their seats in
COngress without.unnecessary delay by the
respective Houses, each House being the
judge of the election, returns and qualifica
tions of its own members.
8. Besolved, That treason is a crime which
should be punished, and that we are op
posed to compromising with traitors by bar
tering "universal amnesty" for "universal
suffrage."
9. Resolved, That the payment of the na
tional debt is a saeredobligation, never to be
repudiated; and that no debt or obligation
incurred in any manner whatever in aid of
treason or rebellion should ever be assumed
or paid.
10. Resolved, That - we cordially endorse
the restoration policy of President Johnson,
as wise, patriotic, constitutional and in har
mony with the loyal sentiment and purpose
of the people in the suppression of the re
hellion, with the platform upon which he
was elected, with the declared policy of the
late President Lincoln, the action of Con
gress, and the pledges given during the war.
11. Resolved, That the nation owes a last
ing debt of gratitude to the soldiers and
sailors of the late war for the suppression o:
the rebellion, and the families of the fallen
heroes who died that the country might live
are the wards of the people, and should be
cared for by the Government.
12. - Resolved, That the National Union
men of this city who are in favor -of the
principles herein enunciated, and who are
willing to give, them the benefit of their
practical support, and thus aid in the resto
ration of our country to permanent peace
and happiness are hereby requested to
form Ward Associations throughout the
city, for the purpose of giving vitality and
energy to the combined action of the people
in this regard, and report said organization
to this club.
Adopted.
Hon. James R. Doolittle, of Wisconsin,
was the first speaker of the evening. He
referred to the fact'that three years ago he
stood in Philadelphia with Andrew Johnson,
then Governor of Tennessee. Both came to
this city at a time when the people were
despondent and discouraged. They came
to assist the Union men of this city to lay
firm and deep the foundations of that asso
ciation which did so much to carry us
through the terrible struggle with the re
bellion. Then and there a resolution-was
adopted which then appealed to the hearts
of the people, and to-day the speaker re
sponded to the sentiment of the resolve,
which was the corner stone on which we
'reared that association which was so instru
- mental in saving the country. That resolu
tion was:
_Resolved, That the Government of the
- United States is founded on the union of the
States [cheers], , which constitutes us one
people [cheers], and is the main pillar in
the edifice of our independence, the only
support of our tranquillity at home and our
peace abroad—of our safety, prosperity and
liberty. [Cheers.]
This resolution was adopted, and men ,
of
all parties were invited to co-operate in a
righteous cause. "The Union of the States"
was the central idea of the whole scheme
then' ' it was "the Union of the States" which
was threatened by the rebellion; It was for
the "Union of the States" that we called on
our people to fight; it was fOr the "Union of
the States-that we pledged our last:man and
our last dollar. ICheera.] "The Union of the
States, under the Constitution," the corner
stone arils American Government,and any
'nan; let him (Nome from the East or the
West Ethe North or the South, who endea
vors to destroy that Union is a disunionist.
'After diseneging the subject of the Union
as givinglus power and. ififluence at home
and abroad, Senator :Doolittle noticed the
assaults made upon President Johnson.
- The Speakeridid enjoyed the intimate
relations with ; Mr, Johnson, and he could
emphatically assert that the "President
was a temperance man in all his habits.
Another charge is, that Mr. Johnson is not
' • .4. • •
Imo te the party that • elected - .104,
speaker asserted that. Mr. JOhnectt
preciselkuponthe ground which was;'
down by.theparty that elected him in:O6A.
He referred to= the State organization* in. ; ,
Louisiana; Tennessee;and Alabama i whop*
Mr. Lincoln developed 'his policy' 'before
Mr. Johnson was elected. These things
were passed upon by the paryy and ap
proved when they, renominated._Mr.
coln. The 'truth= is, that those who' attack
Mr. Johnson are the very ones who
are false to the principles upon which the
victory of 1864 was .won. In regard to, the_
question of negro suffrage, Mr:Johnson was
in• favor of leaving it where the Constitution
left, it with the States. [Cheers.] As a citi
zen of Tennessee, Mr. Johnson Acting at;.
borne, would.be in favor, of granting to the
more Intelligent 'Of the colored population'
the right of snffritge; but, as President of
the United States," he did not conceive that
he had;the, .right to- compel thent,,to grant;
negro suffrage. Mr. Doolittle, at some
length, referred. to, the necessity for over
looking the bitterness of the past, and en—
deavoring to engender kindly feelings be
tw'een the two sections.
Hon.Pdgar Cowan, of Penrisyliania, was'
the next speaker. He discussed the ques- -
Lion of remnstruction • from a legal stand--
point:: He referred to the formation of the
Government with a jealous ~regard for the,
rights of the States. The. Union was formed
for the purpose of preserving the rights of
the States.. To the Central " Government
was delegated the':power of making war
and doing other acts of sovereignty. It was
a government" of law and order, and any
attempt to destroy the Union was in viola
tion of the law. Secession and rebellion
was lawless, • and putting it down was sim
ply enforcing the law. After the law has.
been vindicated by the overthrow of those
who were attempting to violate their legal
obligations, the law again steps in and says
that these people, criminal though they
may be, shall be beard—shall be 'brought
into Court and tried. The law is supreme
once mai* and the old order of things is
restored, with the States againin the Union.
.13.! what law can the Southern States be de
prived of representation in Congress? The
radicals would follow the example of the
Southern people, and now attempt to violate
law.
He claimed that the Conservative party
was the one that strictly obeyed the law,and
that it was composed of persons who violated
no known ordinance. He entered into the
question of the lately rebellions Southern.
States to be again admitted to their old
position before the great war, and the pro
priety of their being fully represented in
the National Congress. The law held that
no one could be legally convicted of a crime
without being heard, find a State held
exactly the same position. He was opposed
at the present time to any amendments to
the Constitution, however specious the argu
ments in favor of them• might be. It had
stood the test of years, and would do so
still. The quarrel going on at present was'
entirely confined to and arose in the Repub
lican party.
The President in the enunciation of his
policy has the best, tried and true men of
the Republican party. Among his sup
porters were Hon. W. H. Seward, Secretary
of State, E. M. Stanton, a gentleman whose
patriotism is undoubted, Gideon Welles,
Secretary of the Navy, Mr. McCulloch, Sec
retary of the Treasury; Generals Gram,
Sherman, Meade, Sheridan, Hanoaek,Craw
ford; Coulter, and all of the heroes to whom
we are indebted for our victories. The party
opposed to the President's policy are led by
such men as Butler, Seigel, Shurz and
others. No man will question the loyalty,
and patriotism of these men who support
the President and who have done so much
to attest their devotion to the country.
He held that it was a mistaken idea that
the object of the Government was to punish
the people of the South. They had been
already sufficiently punished by the result
of their appeal to arms, and it now became
our duty to win them back to loyal practices
by kindness. No party, however powerful,
could destroy the Government.
Mr. Cowan referred to the charges against
Mr. Johnson, that he was throwing. 'ob
stacles in the way of the trial of the leaders
of the rebellion, and contended that the
President was powerless, without the aid of
Chief Justice Chase and the judiciary, to
bring any of the parties to trial.
Hon. I). Norton, of Minnesota, was the
last speaker. He contended that the Radi
cals by their course were seeking to prove
to the country that the war was a failure,
and that we had not succeeded in restoring
the Union. The President of the United
States does not believe the war a failure,
and hence his policy, which recognizes all
the States as still within the Union.
The meeting adjourned at a late hour.
After the meeting General Green Clay
Smith was serenaded at the Continental
Hotel, and in response to repeated calls he
came upon the balcony , and made a few
remarks, eulogistic of President Johnson
and his policy.

XE:TEITH CONGRESS-FIRST SESSION:
[CLOSE OF SATURDAY / if PROCEiDIN43O.]
HOUBE.-The - President's message was
tinder , , discussion. Mr. Fattener' (N. H.)
was the speaker. He adtoortted the policy
of Congreas.h! the matter of, reconstruction.
Mr: RG s ' - (1114 - said: TWO" antagonistic
plans, radically_ , different; Were pending
before Congress and the country; . these
•. _Pint, The plan of the Committee of, Fif
teen : Ora severed.Vnion, dead States, con
quered provinces; and public enemies, to be
taxed without . representation, and governed
by arbitrary force. - •
Beetrzid,'The plan of- the President: That
the ordinances of secession• were void; that
the State!' still live and are An the.-union ;
~that taxation without representation is
against the zenius of our Government; that'
legally elected loyal representatiVes should
be admitted to their seats in Cortina& '•
One would build up, the other would de
stroy. • One was life, the othe r death to the
nation. On these 1881289 hqpoulil not doubt
as to his ditty, and should cordially sop*.
the restoration policy ofthe Administration
in preference to the destructive policy of
Mr. •Newell (N. J.) addressed ' ' the .Housis
in favor of such an increase of the tariff as
will'tend to protect and develop the MAIII2-
%during interests' of the country.' He
showed that in ''no instance was free trade
the'-absolute' rule in any nation. On the
oontiary, true civilization sought to build
up native industry, as the parent seeks to
instruct the , child in the neoessary, means to
a livelihood. Nationa 'art should be pro
tected and fostered by the Goveniment as
individual' art by the , parent. The history
of civilization was nothing but a series of
steps by which man hag subdued nature to
)J2OllOOB Of society, under the propection of
a great central authority; and as nations
grow older the duties of the central authority
become more varied and more protective.
The doctrine that that-is the best govern
ment which governs least, he regarded as a
fallacy, and contrary to all experience,
either as regards this or any other nation.
The House, at half-past four adjourned.
The Bureau Clerks in Washington,
Some time since the House of Represen
tatives called upon the heads of the several
Departments for information respecting the
clerks and others employed therein. The
responses thusfar received show the num
ber employed in the Attorney General's
office to be seven, none of whom were in the
Union army. In the Navy Department
sixty-seven, twenty of whom had served in
the army or navy during the late war. Of
the 630 in the office of the Secretary of the
Interior and the several bureaus connected
therewith, 186 were in the Union army. The
Postmaster General states that there are in
his Department 160 males and 39 females.
Of the former 39 have served' in the Union
army. All, he says, have taken the test
oath without alteration or explanation: In
the State Department there were 41 clerks,
of whom 11 have served in the Union army.
The above exhibits a total of 944 elerks, of
whom 256 have served either in the army or
navy. The Postmaater General and the
Secretary say that none of their employes
have been in the Confederate service, The
War and Departments have not
yet responded to e resolution of the House,
