been baptized in the Mormon Church at
Salt Like.
Washington, March 22.—In the Senate
the consideration of nnfinishei business,
being a resolution approving of theaetion
of the President in regard to Louisiana
was resumed, and ex-President Johnson
began to speak at 10 minutes past 12
o'oiook.
Every seat is oooupied and thousands
are surging through the galleries to hear
Andrew Johnson. After eleven o’oiook,
ingress was impossible. The diplomatic
gallery wss well filled. The Senate floor
proper was crowded with privileged out
siders. Johnson wss dressed in his usual
style of elegant neatness. He has a full
suit of gray hair, liis voioe first was low,
but gradually swelled until it rang
through the corridors. He spoke with
out notes. He was loudly applauded,
when he said: “If Grant is elected a
third term, then good bye to the Repub
lie.” He spoke two hours, and received
applause from the galleries, and eon
gratnlationa from his frieuds on the
floor.
Johnson spoke at length of the tradi
tlons of the Uepublio. Clay introduced
a resolution denouncing Jackson for re
moving deposits. It was then decided
the Senate had no right to pass upon the
sotion of the President, unless sitting as
a court of impeachment. He alluded to
the troubles in Tennessee in I860, when his
resignation was defeated by a quorum
General Thomas was ins!racted striotly
to abstain from any interference. This
dispatoh was written by tbe Secretary of
War ia the presence of the President.
He declared it was not his intention to
give ntterance to a single personal mat
ter. but to speak of public acts.
He then roferred to the removal of
Sheridan from tho command of the Fifth
Military District in 1867. It was in con
sequence of the wail whioh came up from
the people of that section. Why was it
that Sheridan was elected and sent book to
these people, who before bad condemned
him and prayed for his removal? lie
(Johnson) knew the determination of the
people of the Sonth. Their great object
was to be restored to tbe Union.
Refering to the actions of Grant towards
Louisiana, he would say to this Emperor
what Cato said to the ambassador of
Cies&r : “Let him disband bis legions and
restore tbe Commonwealth to liberty.
Let him do that, and he (Johnson), as
humble as he was, would mount the
tram, and strive to have an indignant peo
ple forgive him for his violatiou of law.
