THE NEW PRESIDENT. Sketch of the Life and Servic: Johnson, of Te: Amid the universal manifestations of sorrow over the great affliction which has befallen the country in the sud- don death of its beloved Chief Magistrate, at the hand of ‘a flendish assassin, we must not forget our duties to the! future. The gloom which has thus suddenly fallen like a 4 pall upon the exuberant joy of the people over the late & victories of their armies must not suppress the perils of, the hour, Looking forward with hope through the cloud of our late calamity into the magnificent consum- fa mation of righteous bayonets in the hands of Christian. soldiers we bave the melancholy coneolation that, though F; the President be dead, the mation still lives, Al By the provisions of that sacred instrament, our con- f Andrew FAiite is provided for by the election cotemporaneously with President of a Vice President, who, in case of the death, removal or disability of the President, imme: diately ascends to the chief magistracy of the nation ‘The man, therefore, who is to bear the profound respon- fd sibilities of that high office is Andrew Johnson. Hence to know something of this gentleman’s antecedents as fa public man and an individual, trustworthy of the high charge to which he bas been called by the treacherous work of a conspiration against the nation through its im chosen head, 1s of the deepest importance. Andrew Johnson was born in Raletgh, North Carolina, ‘December 29, 1908, When he had scarcely reached the age of four years, he lost his father, who died from the effects of an effort to save a friend from drowning. His mother was unable to afford her child any educational facilities whatever, He, therefore, never had the advantag of attending school. It is even said that during his younger years he was an inmate of the alm: house of Wake county, North Carolina, where he remained until hie tenth year, At that age he was apprenticed to a tailor in his native city. He Bd thus labored for seven years, His lack of schooling, however, was in a great measure overcome by a strong desire to acquire know ledge, and he spent much of his leisure time in educating himeelf, An interesting anec- dote is mentioned of his anxiety to learn to read. AF gentieman of Raleigh was in the habit of visiting the: EM tailor’s shop and reading while the apprentice and jour- neymen were at work, He read well and geverally made his selections from a volume of speeches of British ‘statesmen, Young Johnson listened with great delight, and his first ambition was to be able to read and compre hend these speeches, He at once procured an alphab:t and, without an instructor, attempted to learn to read. ‘When at a loss to. know a letter he applied for lassistance to the journeymen with whom he worked. After acquiring his letters he asked the owner forg the loan of the book he had so often heard Bj pa read. ‘ The owner gavo him the book and some instruc tion as to its use. He soon learned to read, and at night, after having finished his daily labor of ten or twelve) hours, he spent two or three hours in study. In 1824 he’ completed his apprenticeship and removed to Laurens Court House, South Carolina, where he worked as a journeyman, Whilst there he fell in love with @ girl ‘n the neighborhood and courted her. Mr. Johnson tells the story himself. The young lady sw something! more in him than her mother was able to discern, ‘he Eongaged herself to him, provitied he could get her| mother’s consent, Andy it one Sunday to speak to the old lady, His heart fafled bim till towards night, when he mustered up courage and popped the question to the mother. He says she broke out on bim in a most! terrible tirade of abuse, and naid, “You trifting, worth-— jiess vagabond, do you suppose I am going to let my. daughter marry a wandering journcyman tailor? I know what you want; you are too lazy to work, and you are jafter my property.” The old woman had four children Mand three negroes. This was her fortune. In utter de spatr young Johnson returned to the village mortified and crestfallen. In May, 1826, he returned to Raleigh, where he procured work, and remained until September. At this time he removed to the West, taking with him his mother, who was entirely dependent upon him for a support. Ho stopped at Greenville, Tenn., and engaged in work. Re- = maining there about a year he married, and soon after| went still further West. Failing to find a suitable place to settle, he returned to Greenville and commenced busi- ness, At this time Mr. Johnson's education was limited A to reading. Under the instructions of bis wifo he; speedily entered the higher branches. The only time he could devote to his studies was in the dead of night; but, forgetting the fatigues of his daily work in bis thirst for! knowledge, he overcame all the weaknesses of natrire, and rapidly acquired a good fund of information {n 1828 Mr. Johnson was elected to bis first office as alderman of| the village. His satisfactory acquittal of himself in this i bg office led to his re-election in 1829, and again Ip 1830 b4 In the latter year he was elected Mayor, and beld that PS position for three years, In 1835 he was elected to the Fy State Legislature, In the session of that year he took a bold stand against the measures of internal Im. PY provement proposed by some members, on the ground Ry ie that it would entail upon the State a burdensome debi. ‘The measure meeting the popular approval, in the elec Fs tion of the next year (1837) Mr, Johnson was defeated, In 1880 he was again a candidate His predictions in PR opposition to the internal improvement bills having been realized, he was elected by a large majority. In 1840 he Mserved as Presidontial elector for the State at large on mithe democratic ticket, He canvasted a large portion of the State, meeting on the stump some of the leading B Whig orators. In 1841 he was elected to the State Senate i In 1843 he was elected to Congress, serving by successive Fi re-elections until 1853, During bis career ip that office i he advocated the bill for refunding the fine ‘mposed upon General Jackron at New Orleans in 1816, the an nexation of Texas, the tariff of 1846, the war measures of Mr. Polk's administration, and Ha homestead bill, In 1853 he was elected Governor of Tennessee after an exciting canvass, He was re-elected in 1865 after another spirited contest. At the expiration of his second period as Governor, in 1857, he was elected H to the Senato of the United States for the term endin March 8, 1863. He, however, never completed his term On March 4, 1862, he was confirmed by the Senate of the! United States Military Governor of Tennessee, with the rank of brigadier goneral, with all the powers, duties and| functions pertaining to that office, during the pleasure of| the President, or until the loyal inbabitanta of the State should organize a civil government, in accordance with the constitution of the United States. The designation of General Johnson for the position was considered by everybody as eminently proper, both in view of his pe- cultar fitness for the office and of hie great popularity among all loyal people, besides his devotion to bis own State. The Governor, by the acceptance of the office, necessarily vacated his position as Benator. Mr. Johnson's administration in Tennessee was very! g@horally approved, though It had some enemies, Cader him, and with the assistance of the armiee operating in Tennosseo, order was restored in many sections of the State, and most of the tnbabitanta who remained loyal were protected. On June 8, 1864, Mr. Johnson was chosen by the na- tional republican convention as the candidate of the party b for the Vice Presidency of the United States. In bis letter! of acceptance, In the following month, his expression of views were, in the tnain, Im harmony with the settled country. On March @ last Mr, Johneon was regularly tnaugn- rated as second to the good man whose death we lament. Ff M Since Mr. Johneon's induction into offive aa Vice Pro. Is te expected, though nothing bas been defnitely p, *tent he has not been ealled upon toact in an official wes, 00 1074 devermined pon, that the funeral of che late President {Aa CAPscity, bute brief review of his career may enable us to draw some inferences tn regard to bis Ginene for the vast public dutios about to devolve upon him. He was} B born and reared amid the lowert poverty “if he had been without natural abilities of the rarest P quality he never would have ch above bie trate. en, particularly eh ehe taught himself a Nt Ea the bonds that connected him with a people whom he Mi stitution, the uncertainty of the duration of human Fy opinions of @ majority of the thinking minds of the Fi Tt ts evident i nd marrying, Upassume the ¢ jafer nis apprenticeship was completed, a wormes whe knew something about books, he was fairly started em ifthe road to learning, Though Mr. Johnson is no scholag } im the sense of books, his experience and observe- tion have taught him more valuable les Pisons—a knowledge of men and strong common sense. His political bias was in carly years exceedingly democratic. Previous to the breaking out of the presend rebellion he was the idol of the Southern democracy; Mand had he permitted himself to float upon tho wave of secession and treason there is not a doubt but he would b have boen placed at the head of that revolutionary move- ment, the Southern confederacy. But his devotion te his country—his whole country—impelled him to sever \ had for so long @ period led and controlled, but who were lanatched from his influence by the infamous crime of treason, These people he could still have wielded could his potent voice have reached them, but the monster of intolerance closed her jaws upon him. He was nov Mi permitted in Middle and West Tennessee to ad. dress the people, Had fhe attempted tt a mob woulé PA have been ready, not only to stop his voice, but to take HM his life. Too well the leaders of rebellion in Tennessee knew his power over the people; and they were con- scious that if he were permitted to make public apeeches Fa the people would rally around him—that he could pre- Ma serve Tennessee from their fatal sway. He stood firm, land yet stands firm, as a monument of loyalty and de- BY votion to his country, while many of his contemporancous BS political lights have been forever extinguished an@ enshrouded in the perfidy of the conspiracy against the | fe of the nation, Among his old political friends he saw Isham G. Harris, the late Governor of Tennessee; A. B40. P. Nicholson, his colleague in the United States Senate; Andrew Ewing, Langdon C. Haynes and a hos FY of others fall into the secession pit. Of his political op- | ponents he saw E, H. Ewing, G. A. Henry, the “Eagle orator,” his opponent the first time he was elected Governor of ‘Tennessee, and who sald, in the Bell and Everett Convention im Baltimore, that he wished he might be struck blind before he Fdever should see the Union dissolved; and even Bell, whose wisdom had shone asa beacon light to the nation for more than a quarter of @ century, cower be- fore the monster secession. But he, amid all this wreck, stood firm, keeping the glorious Union and the con: tion of our fathers ever in view, and making them the B polar star to which he steered amid the mighty convul- sions and upheavings which beset him on every sides Mand he now appears upon the world’s great stage as a. living witness that public virtuo and unselfish patriotism: are not extinct even in those States that bave inaugu- © rated this unholy war, While the names of many whe: formerly shone in the same sphere with him will ber buried beneath a mausoleum of infamy, bis will shine: like the bright star of the morning, and be honored by generations yet unborn, ‘Ata meeting on April 3 at the War Department, tm Washington, after the reading of the despatches front: the front of our victorious armies, announcing the fall of” Richmond, Mr. Stanton introduced Vice President Joba son. We give Mr. Johnson’s remarks on that occasion as” an exponent of his views upon the troubles which en- id danger the country. They were as follows:— Being unexpectedly called on by this large audience here to address them in reference to the victories which have been announced by telegraph, it is a sincere pleasure te Mme to have it in my power to mingle with those con gratulations which are incdental to triumphs of thie bara:ter; and perbaps I should content myself with this acknowledgtrent of my gratification in being call on this auspicious occasion, to mingle with you in yo rejoicings in this the hour’ of our country’s triumph. A But it may not be entrely ovt of place for me to state: fa that at the commencement of this iniquitous rebellion. I was one who entered the service, not as a three months, a six monghs, a twelve months or ® three years man, bt a8 one enlisted for the war oF during the struggle for the suppregsion of the re bellion; and I trust it will not be considered egotistical for me on th’s occasion to allude —. te what was my position at the beginning of the rebellion. In the Senae of the United States, when the con- spiracy was matured, and Senators were retiring from. their seats, when I was cailed upon to say what I would do in the matter, my reply was that General Jackson, wh le President of the United States in 1882 and 1! declared that traitors should be hung as high as Hi: gallows, and then put bis {oot upon St and crushed 1 That old man now sleeps in the tomb, and were it possl+ Mi bie to communi ate intellig nce to the dead, and ne could be made to know that traitors and treason were rampant ur the land, it would cause the old man to ture fjover in his coffin and burst its lid, and rise from the tomb and shake of the habiliments of the dead, and again reiterate that memorable sentencz, * that’“The union of the States must be preserved.” | When asked what J would do, I said I would‘arrest them. as trailors, [ would try them as trailors, commi them as traitors, and hang them a&tvai/ors, And in this connec Aiion I ‘will say that, taking into account the perse- cution, roureeoniae and banishment from all that is sacred and dear te men, that the traltors—-that is, the leading tra'tors, who have duc ived and Involved the na tion in this dlabol cal rebellion—I should say that theig reward should be ‘he hater aid the galls. 1 rep that conscious, intelligent, leading traitors should su the penalty of death, And, on the other band, to th peopls who baye been deluded and misled, would extend lemency and humanity, and ap invitation to return to the allegiance they owe to thd country. Wo have the gratifying intelligence to-day that the outpost of the Southern con/edpracy has beep taken, In uddition to that the gates of the citidel have been entered by our victorious forces, May we not infeg that it isa rebuke of Divine Providence against a proué ‘and imper ous class when we see that their city Was em tered by color d troopa?

Mr, Johnson's remarks were received with immerse applause, With efficient counsellors, and acting upon the pro- found sentiment of his inaugural, ‘The duties are mine 1 will perform them, trusting In God,” we have every right to expect Mr. Johnsen will fil the unexpired term of bis lamented predecessor with honor to himself ané glory to the nation. Relying upon this, upon the virtue 4 of our armies and the devotion of the good people all lover the North, there may be in the terrible dispensation: to recently enacted the finger of God pointing Wo unseen dangers, warning us by His terrible presence to beware lof the treacberous hand rendered powerless by the do- minion of right, raised in the dark to avenge the humilis tion of pride, and prosecute at our backs further \ufamy, villainy and treason.
