U4PORTA2T SPEECH PROM PRESI
DENT JOHNSON.
Plain Talk about the Radicals.
Wabhlnoton, Feb. 22.—The National Monument
Society held a meeting today—Preaidant Johnson
presidtd and made a few remarks, alluding to Wash
ington’s fsrewell address, as containing the principles
by which he sought to be guided, and expressing the
hope that all tbe States would continue their contri
butions to the structure, to be completed, as an en
during monument to the restoration of all the States
to their proper relations to the Goverment.
1 Bay, that when these States comply with tbe Con
stitution, when they have given sufficient evidence of
their loyalty, and that they can be trusted when they
yield obedience to the law. I say, extend to them the
right hand of felfowibip, and let peace and union be
restored. I have fought traitors and treason in Hie
South; I opposed the Davises and Toombs, and the
Hlidells and a long list of others whose names I need
not repeat, and now when 1 torn round at the other
and of the line. I care not by what name you call
them, (a voice, “call them traitors, ’’) who still stand
opposed to the restoration of the Union of these States,
and I am free to aay to you that I am still for the
preservation of this compact. I am still for the
restonion of this Union; 1 am still in favor of
this great government of ours, living "and following
out its destiny-^(a voice, “give us the names,”) a gen
tleman calls for their names. I suppose 1 shall give
them. (A voice, “We know them.’’) I look upon them,
I repeat it, as President or citizen, as much opposed
to the fundamental principles ot this government, and
believe they are as much laboring to destroy them as
were the men who fought against them—(A voice,
“what are their names 7”) 1 say Thaddcue Stevens
of Pennsylvania. [Tremendous applause.) IsayChas.
Sumner. [Great applause.] I say Weudall Phillips,
and others of the same stripe amongst them. [A voice,
“Give it to Fumey.”J Some gentleman in the crowd
says give it to Forney. I havei only Just to say that I
do not waste my ammunition on (lead ducks. (Laugh
ter aud applause.] I stand for my country. I stand
for the Constitution, where I placed my feet from en
trance Into public life. They may traduce me, they
may alander, they may vituperate, but let me aay to
you, that it has no effect upon me. [Cheers.] Let me
say in addition, that I do not intend to be bullied by
enemies. [Applause, and a cry, the people will sustain
you.] I know my countrymen it has been inaiuuated,
but not said directly. The intonation has been
combined, I care not of what obaraeter, cannot destroy
tomt great toatrument, the great charter of freedom.
They may seem to succeed for a tone, but their at-
tsmpta will be futile. They may think now that
it can be done by a concurrent resolution, but
when it is submitted to the popular judgment
■od the popular will, they will find that they
mighf as well undertake to introduce a reeo-
lutlon to repeal the lows of gravity, aa to
keep tide Union from being restored. It is just
about as feasible to arrest the great laws of gravi
tation, --which binds all to s' common • centre, • as
that great law which will bring back those States
to their regular relations with the i'-t‘1 have
detained you longer than I intended [a voice,
“goon”]. We are in a great straggle. I am your in
strument. Who is there there tlrat I have not toiled
aud labored for? They' aay that TTia ri Johnson is a
lucky man; that no man can defeat me. I will tell you
what constitutes good lsck. It is due to right and be
ing for the people—that is what constitutes good hick
Some how or other the people will find out and un
derstand who is for and who ia against them- 1 have
been placed in as many trying positions aa any mor
tal was ever placed in, but so for I have not deserted
the people, and I believe they will not desert me,
What principle have I violated? What sentiment
have I swerved from ? Can they put their Sugar upon
it? Have you heard them point out any discrepan
cy ? Have you heard them quote my predecessor, who
fell a martyr to his country's cause, as going In oppo
sition or contradiction to that 1 have done! The
very policy which I am pursuing now was pursued
under his administration: was being pursued by
him when that inscrutible Providence saw fit
summon him, I trust, to a better world than this,
there one principle adopted by him in referenc toThis
resolution that 1 departed from. Theu the war is not
simply upon me, but it is upon my predecessor,
have tried to do my duty. I know that some are t
▼tout and jealous, and apeak of the White Houae
having attractions for the President. Let me say
you the charms of the White House have as little
influence upon me as upon any other individual in the
country, and much less than upon those who are talk
ing about it.
In conclusion, let me mi- this vast coucounts here
to-day, to come with me, or I will go with you, and
stand around the Constitution of onr country. It
again, unfolded. Let us stand by the Constitution
our forefathers. Though the heavens foil; though
factions should rage; though courts and juries may
come; though abuse and vituperation may be poured
out in the most vinilent form, I mean to l>e found
standing by tbe Constitution, as the chief ark of our
rafety: aa tin

THE VETO IN NEW YORK.
Great Uprising No. 3.
Tbe enthusiastic demonstrations of approval of the
President’s veto of tha Fr.-edmeU’s Bureau Bill
throughout the North are as surprising and unlooked
for by ua here as they are clicet ing and gratifying.
Not the least important and significant is that of New
York city, which was to take place on the evening
tbe 22d inst., at the Cooper Institute. The call for the
meeting was signed by over two thousand citizens,
including the prominent men of all parties. Among
the names published With tho call tre those of Wm
