DIPLOftr &TIC DO /'AGE,
Reverdy Johnson was never one of Ame
rica's great men, but he has enjoyed the repu
tation, so rare among the prominent men of
the - Democratic party, of being personally
respectable and politically as nearly upright
and patriotic as his party will permit. Rev
,erdy Johnson, as s mere mill-horse in the
traces, plodded around looking wondrous
wise, and uttering grave and ponderous plati
tudes, the very Turveydrop of the Senate.
But Reverdy Johnson, Minister to England,
has undertaken to frisk around in the green
pastures of British dinner-parties, kicking up
his ancient heels with a sort of rheumatic
awkwardness, until his antics of speech and
action can only be likened to what we are
told of Mr. Mullins, of Tennessee, who sig
malized his securing a good seat in the House,
the other day, by springing four feet into the
air and cutting a pigeon-wing so deftly that,
like Old Fezziwig, he 'seemed to wink with
hie lege."
The American people have looked on with
indignant disgust as they have seen themselves
misrepresented before the English people by
the antique Marylander whom his namesake
has fastened upon the diplomatic service.
Angry shouts and loud protests have gon e
across the water, bidding Minister Johnson
- remember that, whatever his master's fond
ness for rebels, pirates and Southern sympa
Oilmen may be, he was sent to England to
represent not Andrew Johnson, but the
American people; that the American peo
ple have declared their verdict upon the sub
ject of England's attitude in relation to the
!?' " late rebellion, and that he was not sent out to
reverse that verdict. That these protests have
.beached the ears of our septuagenarian
Min
inter is certain enough. Indeed, the promi
, sem of 'his ears is such that it would be ,
al
most impossible not to reach them; and
. now he is wandering from dinner table
go dinner-table, defending himself, apologiz
ing, explaining and getting himself deeper
and deeper into the mire, as be flounders
about, laughed at, pitied, despised, and only
-) .. saved from one universal demand for his
jpgstant recall by the knowledge that his
deings are exactly in keeping with the views
his namesake Johnson, and also that he
and his employer are so soon to pass from
aronhling the trecle into their final obscurity.
Reverdy Johnson's very last performance
Is perhaps his worst. It comes out in the
shape of an endorsement which he has just
procured from John Laird, the pirate ship
builder, to whom we are principally indebted
for the great losses -which our commerce
suffered during the war. It appears that
this man has determined to forgive
• us for having preserved our Union, and ac
-. 1, vordingly invited Mr. Johnson to visit the es
tablishment where he fitted out his piratical
cruisers and to 'receive his"distinguished eon
sideration and esteem." Poor old Johnson,
T: 'with his half hearted loyalty, seems to have
!, liad a particular appreciAtive nose for the
Ovine flavor of an English pirate, and at one
wrote a letter tq Laird, very much regretting
iwthat his precious time would prevent his
f` Ding to Birkenhead, but adding, "Notarial
andlyrefiNiy—ix.achtzed with my Southern
Wirothren during the late war, I shall have
t.V much pleasure in making your acquaintance,
and to hear your sincere wisiiea for poke."
"tad Reverdy Johnson done that very un-
diplomatic thing, told the plain truth, be
•
would have substituted "Because" for "Not,
_witathtuudiug ? " but it is suWcienUy plaLa that
the thing which' gave Laird favor in his eyes
was his peculiar, practical method of
displaying his sympathies with Reverdy John=
son's dear "Southern brethren." Had Mr.
Laird crossed Mr. Johnson's official path, it
might have heen necessary, for him to give
this impudent Englishman an official recogni
tion. Beydnd this, he had no right to go a
single - step. lie is in England as a represen
tative of a Government against which s this
man bas waged a piratical war, and Laird's
insolence to our Minister is modesty itself,
compared with the impertinence which Mr.
Johnson displays toward the people whom
be misrepresents by his cordial endorsement
of a person only known in. America in con
nection with the wholesale, cowardly de
struction of unarmed American whalers and
merchantmen. There is but one excuse for
Reverdy Johnson._ He is entering the region
of his 'dotage, and were not Mr. Seward him
self nearly as aged as his foolish old Minister
he Would see that, for Mr. Johnson's sake,as
well as for the honor of his country, there is
but one thing to do in the case, and that is to
recall him at once. We should be infinitely
better cared for with no Minister at all at the
Court'of St. James, than with such a carica
ture of a diplomatist as now discredits us in
England. -_
A WHIPMELY €IIIMISTMLAS GIET.
It is with real pride in one of the most en_
terprising business establishments of Philadel
phia that we record one of the handsomest
acts of has ever come to our
notice in our knowledge of the relations be , '
tween employers and the employed in this
elty. One such noble instance as this does
more to promote the business credit of Phila
delphia, and to counteract the foolish hostil
ity so often fostered between the great inter
eats of capital and labor, than volumes of
written argument. _
Mr. John Wanamaker, of Oak Hall, sum
moned all the attaches of his great business
establishment to one of the upper-floors yes
terday morning, and began the week by pre
paring for the insurance of the lives of all his
clerks, salesmen, bookkeepers, cutters, &0.,
as his Christmas gift eo them. This was
done in our own excellent home Company,
"The American," Fourth and Walnut streets,
under the management of Mr. C. B. McLean,
the manager of the City Agency. The ap
plications number about 140, and the policies
will cover nearly $200,000, the pre_
[alums paid amount to a sum that shows the
liberal spirit of Mr. Wanamaker, whilst the
act itself is an evidence of a keen apprecia
tion of the interests of his employes that does
credit to both the head and heart of any busi
ness man.

sUlterings ol Immigrants In North
Carolina.
[From the Raleigh Stone ard, Dec. 17.1
•
We have learned from trustworthysonrces that
the Swiss immigrants,. settled on the Atkinson
plantation, near Goldsboro, are in a - wretched
and deplorable condition, suffering for raiment
arid the necessaries of life. These worthy people,
accustomed to their native mountains. to pure
air, and to an abundance of food, are at this time
without friends, almost shelterless, and com
pelled to subsist on a miserly ration -- of corn,
meal andtpork. One of their number took his
last $4O, and cheerfully spent it to promote the
comfort and happiness of his countrymen and
women. It does seem to us that the benevolent
people of Wayne county, who raised money to
defray the expenses of Messrs. Atkinson and
Trueb to Europe, might have displayed more
indgment—at least more humanity—in applying
• it to the absolute poverty and suffering of the
sixty Swiss immigrants already in 'the county.
If these poor people have been swindled and de
ceived by false promises, it Is time the Legisla
ture should look after them.

The regular Government Commissioners have pre.
mounced the Union Pacific Railroad to be FIRST CLASS
in every respect, and the Special Commission appointed
by the President says:
"Taken as a whole, THE UNION PACIFIC' RAIL.
ROAD, HAS BEEN WELL CONSTRUCT'ED, A tD TIIE
.ENERAL ROUTE FOR THE LINE EXCEEDINGLY
ELL SELECTED. The energy and pereeverance with
w ich' the work has been urged forward. and the rapidity
wi which it ban been executed are without Parallel in
his ory, and in grandeur and magnitude of undertaking it
has • ever been equaled." The Report states that any de.

deticieit les are supplied by all railroad companies atler

shows em to be necessary. The report concltides by -
say ing t t "the country has reason to congratulate itself '
that this =• t work of national importance le so rapidly
approaching completion under such favorable auspices."
The Company now have in use 137 locomotives and nearly
2,000 cats of all descriptions. A large additional equip. "
meld is ordered to be ready in the Spring.. The grading
is nearly completed. and tied dist , ibuted for" 120 miles in
advance of the western end of the track. Fully 100 miles
of iron for new track. are now delivered west of the Idis
souri River, and 90 miles more are en route. The total
expenditures for construction purposes in adviurce of the
completed portion of the road is not less than eight million
dollars.- -
Besides a donation from the Government 0f1,2,800 acres_
of land per mile, the Company is entitled to a subsidy in
IT. B. Bonds on its line as completed and accepted, at the
average rate of about $29,000 per mile, according to the
difficulties encountered, for which the Government takes
a second lien as security. The Company have alreadi
received 11322.158,00 of this subsidy, of $1,280.5)

Government Aid—Security of the !tomb,
By its charter, the Company is permitted to issue its,
own FIRST MORTGAGE BSNDB to the same amount an
the Government Bonds, and no These Bonds are
a First Mortgage upon the whole road and all- its equip
ments. Such a mortgage upon what, for a long titne,will
be the only sailroad connecting the Atlantic and Patine
States. takes the highest rank as a safe security.
The earnings from the way or local business for the year
ending Juno 30. 1868, on an average of 472 miles. were
over FOUR-MILLION DOLLARS. which, after paying
all expenses, were much more than sufficient to cover all
nterest liability upon that distance, and the earnings for
the last five imonths have been $2.386,870. They would ,
have been greater. If the road had not been taxed to its
utmost capacity to transport its own materials for con-;
struction. The income from the great passenger travel.:
the China freights, and the supplies for the new
Rocky Mountain States and Territories must
be ample for- all interest and other liabilities.
bo political action can reduce the rate ef interest.:;
It must remain for thirty years—six per cent. per annum.
In cold, now equal to between eight and nine per cent. in
currency. The principal is then payable in gold. - If a
bend, with such guarantees, were issued by the Govern
meat, it a market price would not be less than from 'Si to
35 per cont. premium. As these bonds ale Issued under
Government authority and supervision, upon what is
very largely a Government work, they must ultimately
approach Government prices. No other corporate bonds
are made so secure.
The price for the present is PA Mend accrued interest at
