Johns jii for Jepudiatlon
Mr. Johnson, soys the Uticn Herald, pos
BCMfi a rare skill for mischief Few nion
could hare succeeded as he did, in arousing
the decoying passions of the defeated rebel
lion, and in preventing the accomplishment
of reconstruction. Pretending to desire
the restoration of the States, he was effi
cient in multiplying obstacles mid in keeping
the States disorganized mid unrepresented,
beyond what would have been possible un
der a policy having that object confessedly
in view.
His skill for mischief ho now dircc's to
the financial problem. The same moml
obliquity, the sumo mingling of ignorance
and arrogance, the same defiance of every
consideration uffoctiog the honor and the in
terest of the nation, inspire his action. In
comparing the expenditures of the govern
ment at two periods, for example, ho states
tho3o of 18C.9, at 372,000,000. The fir.-t
was in gold, and the latter currency. To
compare them, they should bo stated in the
eamo terms. Then-the expenditures of 18G0
become equal to 835,000,000 in paper. In
19G8-9, wp paid $13,737,412 for bount'es,
$7,200,000 for his epeculntion in Alaska,
and ?24,2"2,000 for the great notional Pa
cific railway, besides 140,000,000 for in
terest and other largo payments on account
of the war. Of this ho makes no account,
but leaves the render to understand that the
'"expenses of Government in the. year of
peace three years after the wni," are nor
mally the aggregate which he parades. He
tn ats the increaso of the indebtedness with
the sumo hostile disingonuousness. And ho
inpinuates with an indirection which adds
severity to the sting, thol the treasury is in
danger of failing to meet drafts upon it; for
this is the English of the remark: "With
out proper care, the smnli balance which, it
is estimated, will remain in tho Treasury nt
the close of the present fiscal your, will not
be realized, nnd wMitftnnl millions he add
ed to n debt which is now enumerated by
billion."
All of this is but the logical progress to
wards n proposition which it is the shame
of tie Republic, Mr. Johnsou us President
puts forth und. advocates. Ho states it in
tlieso word:
Our national credit should -be eaoredly ob
wrvnl, but in making provisions for our
cre.litorv we utiotiM not forget what is due
(i th- ni-i-e of tiie pei.plc. It may be as
ii;ii' il tlml the holders of oar securities have
Miv:niy received upon their Ioih'm a larger
n:i.ti!'.:t II:, in their oriuinal investment,
i.-!ini-i .1 by u gold standard. Upon this
ieni -nt tif facts it. would seem but just
.. , i ..nl;i le that tiie six per cent, inteiesl
no funl by t.ie (.'OviTimii'iit should be np-pli'-
l to Ihe reduction of the principle in
M-tiit-aium.ii installments, which, in sixteen
y-i'iir ;itnl eight months, would liquidate the
I'litire natio'iul debt. Six-percent, in gold
Would, at pre.-eut rates, he equal to nine per
cent in currency, und equivalent to tho pay
ment of the debt one und a half times in a
fraction less thau seventeen years. This ill
connection with all the other advantages de
rive)! from their investment, would afford to
the public creditors n lair und liberal com
pensation for tho use of their capital, and
with this they should ho s.itistied. The
lessons of the past admonish the lender that
it is not well to be over anxious in exacting
from the borrower ricid compliance with the
letter of the bond.
We have read this passage over many
times, to discover if some other than the ob
vious interpretation, coulobot be giveu to
it. But ouly oue meauiug cau be deduced.
The proposal is to repudiate eutirely the
claim for iuterest upon the debt, und to com
pel the holders to accept payment of the
principal iu driblets of three per cent, semi
unnuully. This is the first proposal in any
O flic in! quarter iu favor of repudiation. Mr.
Johnson has earned the infamy of proclaim
ing it His own reputation has fallen verv
low;perhnp3 it is of little account to sink
that a few degrees lower. But it is a grave
offeuse that be should havo stained ihe nu
tiouul honor by such a suggestion iu an ofli
ciul document.
Fortunately Congress and the people will
spurn tho temptation. What would tiia
Government credit be worth, if au attempt
were niado to perpetrute this outrage! On
ly a mean as well Ob a dishonest mind could
bave devised tho suggestion. Picture this
government offering to pay three per cent,
at Bemj-annual intervals on its debt, rep uni
ting the interest.
Mr. Johnson pays no attpution to the
terms on which the Government issued its
bonds. He fancies profit cuu be made by
natiouul knavery; ami he advises the Repub
lic to play the rascal. And he does not
admit a single feature of crime from the
transaction. He works In the threat: this
c.r worse, your money or your life; for "it is
not well" for the lender to "bo nrer-nnxious
in exacting from the borrower the letter of
tho bond." : 'lis U but another wuy of my.
iug that tho leaders must submit to this set
tlement, or get no shadow of a farthing for
tbo bonds (hey hold.
Let us hope that Mr. Johnson has succeed
ed in rendering repudiation in uny form
more bdioub than ever before. Then we shall
reap tome udvautage frm the shame be
briugs upon us, and for tho-diRcreiiit he casts
upon the national securities.
i " Jnie Cot.onr.D Mkmder from Louisiana.
The Boston Post's Washington correspon
dent describes Mr. J. Willis Menard of Lou-
isinno, thai: Mennrd Is a dipgy mulatto,
30 years of age, and of medium stature. He
speaks fluently, but Incoherently, and pro
poses to bo a politician of no mean preten
siona. He snys he is the grandson of Gen.
Menard, who emigrated from the Province
of Louisiana to Illinois before that State
became a member of the Ur ion. Menard
labored on a farm in Southern Illinois until
lie was 19, when he removed to the northern
port of the State, There he worked during
the Fnmmer months, and attended school
during the Winter. In 1859 lie entered Li
beria College, Ohio, where ho remained nn
til 1861, when he visited Canada, returning
totheLnited States in 18G3. He entered
the army as hospital steward in this- city.but
remained only a few months when he was as
signed a desk in the Immigration Bureau
of the Interior Iepartmeut. The prejudice
exhibited toward him in his official position
soon induced him to resign, and disgnsted
with the Government, ha sailed for British
Houndurns. Here he was employed by the
British Honduras Company to make nnr ex
ploration of the country, which he" did to
the satisfaction of the Government. He
next visited Jomnca and Huyti; returning to
New York in 18fi5. Here he remained but
a short time, and again skipped for New
Orleans, where he arrived in Sej-tember.atid,
as he says, commenced at once to organize
the Repnblican party of the South. He
avows himself a Radical of the Wendell
t lumps scnooi, ana ne says lie has no use
for milk and .water men like Fefsenden and
Trumbull.
No Bktter than White Mk.v. It seems
that negroes hove very much tho same super
stitions as white men. We are told that a
pnrty of them are digging on the bunk of
the rivpr, just above Natchez, Mississippi,
under the direction of an "old crouo," for
Kidd's treasure. At last accounts), it was
estimated that their work, counted by the
day, would amount to five hundred dollars;
that they worked unremittingly during the
day and ate their food at early dawn aud af
ter dark, and were confident of finding the
treasure. This is foolish very foolish and
just B3 lotsof white men have done before.
I'he Democratic journals are right in suppos
ing it shows a lack of judgment. But it
settles one question to a dead certainty.
It demonstrates that tho negro will work
hard and continuously under the hope of fu
ture reward. Let those who have denied
that the negro can be induced to work
for pay, put these facts, given by tho
Notches Democrat, in their pipes and smoke
them!
Itwhsb matter of public notoriety that
for a long time after the political somersualt
of Andrew Johnson, the New York Times
vainly attempted to stem the torrent of In
dignation which threatened to sweep.A. J.
out of his seat, clinging to his shattered for
tunes with a devotion worthy of a better
cause. The Times has at last had its eyes
opened, and frankly owns that it is now con
vinced of Mr. Johuson's dishonesty. This
is a good confession, -but thousands of
less mental calibre than Mr. Raymond
could have told him the same thing long
since.
A dispatch from Constantinople stafes,
that the Turkish ultimatum has really heen
rejected by Greece. It is even reported that
an engagement has already taken place bo
tween tho Greek steamer Krosis and a Turk
ish cruiser, and that tho Grek steamer had
taken refuge in the harbor of Syra, where
she was blockaded by Hobart Pasha, the
Admiral of the Turkish cruiser, The Great
Powers will undoubtedly continue their ef
forts to preservo peuce, but if they should
fuil and the war between Turkey and Greece
go on, wo shall Eoon hear of new outbreaks
in Crete, iu Thessaly, and probably in other
Turkish provinces.
Most people aro two-faced. Nearly all
of us, no doubt, regard ourselves as excep
tional to uny such statement. No matter
what other peoplo may be whether two,
three, or a dozen sided we fancy ourselves
open, honest, frank, sincere. If so, we urc
stuffing ourselves with a fiction. Let us re
peat, we are all two-faced. None of us npppar
really und absolutely what wo lire. We put
nnr best qualities forurd, und disguise the
rest. Life is made up of an effort, to do this
trick. It is sometimes successlnl; somt times
not We uot only deceive everybody or
attempt but also ourselves.
Rev. J. D. Fulton, Baptist minister, of
Boston, has been visiting the Baptists in
Kiigluud, and Bays they greatly luck denomi
national unity. They ore divided into three
schools Particular Baptists, S'rict l)i-ci-pline
Baptists, and Open Communion Bap
tists. - I ho first two agree essentially with
the.Olose. Communion Baptists of the Unit
ted Htates. The Knglish Open Communion
Baptists have almost as little connection
with the other two schools as with tho Pres
byterians or Methodist. They aro virtual
ly another denomination. The star of this
denomination is Mr .Spurgeon, oue of the
uolubi lilies of the world.
Philosophy vs. Swimming. A college pro
fessor was being rowed across a stream iu a
boat Said he to the boatman, 'Do you un
derstand philosophy?' 'No, never he'rd of
it!' 'Then oue quarter of your life is gone.'
Do you understand geology?" 'No ' 'Then
one-half of your lil'it's gone.' "Do you un
derstaud astronomy?' 'No.' 'Theu three
quarters of your life's gone.' But presently
t lie boat tipped over aud spilled both iu the
river. Snys the boutmun, 'Do you under
stand swimming?' 'No!' 'Then the whole
of year life's gone.'
At a public snle of books, 'Drew's F.ssav

A Purisiun beggar accosted gentleman
with "1 am poor, monsieur, but I am reli
gious. I want but one of the saving virtues;
I have faith; I have Hope; it remains with
you to give me charity.'
