The Paris Journals on Presi
dent Johnson’s Policy.
The Parts journals comment at some length
on President Johnson’s 22d of February
speech. The Opinion Nationale declares bis
policy to be retrograde, while Avenir affirms
that the Presdent’s firm and resolute conduct
has quite disarranged the combinations of
the extreme parties, but is applauded by the
muss of the people, who willingly afford their
approval to bold and decisive measures.—
The Debats expresses itself in these terms.’
Whatever may have been the mobility of
Mr. Johnso >’s policy, either before his eleva
tion to the Presidency or since, it is certain
that at this moment he is defending, with far
more intelligence than his adversaries, the
true interests of the Union The war was
undertaken by the North against the South,
not only in the name of liberty against slave
ry, but for the security of the American
Union. Can those who contested then so
energetically and legitimately the right of
the Confederates to secede from the Union,
iftw without flagrant contradiction deny them
the right to re-enter it? After the ftigbtful
war which has so profoundly injured the
country, the United States can have no more
pressing duty than that of reconstructing
that unity, which is the foundation and
strength of their power and influence. To
oppose the plans for that purpose pursued by
the Executive power—to exclude by special
laws the representatives of the South—is it
not in reality to prolong the state of war, and
to perpetuate dissensions and hostilities
which every effort should be made to efface?
Without doubt ibis work is diifioult, and the
lately rebellious States ought to re-enter the
Union only under efficacious guarantees
against a new rupture; but it is by a system
of absolute exclusion and perpetual suspicion
that they are to be obtained.
According to The France the feeling exhibit
ed by the President’s rejection of the Freed
men’s Bureau Bill has been, above all, a sur
prise. The Union finds his language clear and
firm, and praises bis policy, ability, and ener
gy. The Patrie is glad to see that he persists
in his views of conciliation toward the south,
aud that he is sustained by the majority. The
Siocle makes the subjoined remarks:
“Despite the different appreciations of Mr.
Johnson’s conduct, there are, it seems to us
some points in which all persons ought to
agree. A terrible war has terminated, and the
abolition of slavery has been solemnly decreed;
it is now necessary to re-establish the Union,
to appease men’s minds, to substitute as soon
as possible a regular state ot things for milita
ry regime, to protect the emancipated slaves,
to sustain them as long as that care may be
necessary; intact, to secure to the blacks with
in the shortest possible delay the rights ot citi*
zens, which belong in all civilized countries
to every man regardless of color. The former
distinctions of Northerners or Southerners, ol
advocates of slavery or abolitionists, ought to
be effaced. When we say that true patriots
have rallied around the President, we do not
intend to say that there are no patriots among
the other party; but there should be for
the fulure citizens united by the same zeal for
the glory aud prosperity of the nation.”
Striking Personal Description of
President Johnson.
The Hon. John B. Baldwin, member of
Congress from Massachusetts, writes this de
scription of Andrew Johnson and his 22d of
February speech:
* * “What the President said is before
the country. How he said it, my poor words
may fail to tell. For the first time, I stood
near and looked closely on the man. In the
course of an eventful life, I have seen many
men of willful power and force, but never be
fore have I looked on one so thoroughly em
bodying the evil spirit of revolution. He is
terribly in earnest, and, withal, most vin
dictively cool, A thoroughly-paced dema
goguge, his consequential logic, bis egotisms,
his repititions, his thorough belief in himself,
aud his popularity, are all elements of
strength when be faces t such assemblies as
were arrayed about him yesterday.
“Andrew Johnson is an able man—how
able, 1 never realized till yesterday. All re->
suits are involved in bis policy. Had be a
Cabinet as able aud as desperate, the dire re
sults which tbe near future would bring,
eould baldly be named now. We stand on
the verge of a fiercs strife, to meet which tbe
country should gather its strength and gird
up its loins. This man is no weak Buchanan,
and he means to crush Congress or be crush
ed.
“Mr. Johnson is a man of stalwart molud.
Just above the middle stature, he is so broad
sbduldered, firm set, deep-chested, as
almost to seem below it. He has a large
head. It is a compact homo for his fiery will
and brain. His face is marked, strong oval
outline, powerful under jaw; well defined,but
rather sharp chin; a wide, straight mouth,full
flexible lips, skin coarse in texture; but firm,
complexion swarthy, hair coarse black,
streaked with grey, a nose small at the root,
but full aud large at the nostrils, which ex*>
pand and lift as he speaks, broad roomy fore
head, beetling bushy eye-brows, beneath
which are a pair of the coldest, hazel grey
eyes I ever saw in a human need; these are
the outlines of Andrew Johnson.*

On Reclaiming worn-out Land’,
By Actual Experiment.
BY EDWARD WILLIAMS, 0V HABKRrHAM COUNTY, GAI
Gentlemen :-I have confined my operations
°hi t hh Th 18 p!,Bt t 0 Blxty acres of land >
which had become much impaired from exce;-
sive cultivation, tor the space of forty years
the average yield of which did not exceed
twenty five bushels per acre, ot corn. I com
menced by laying off the ground in squares of
thirty feet each way, and where the lines form*
'7 t ?^ uareß crossed each other, I deposit,
ed tbe fifth part of a two-horse wagon load of
barn yard manure, or less, thus putting nine
loads of manure upon each acre, in small heaps,
at thirty feet distance from each other. These
heaps of tfiauure, I had immediately covered
with earth, to remain so until the time of
plowing when as much as could be plowed
under was spread from day to day, and turn
ed under, say seven inches deep, which fur.
row was followed with a sub soil plow in the
form of a narrow bull tongue, breaking tbe
sub soil four to six inches deeper. After the
ground being thus prepared, it was rolled
down with a good reller. The after cultivation
ot thu crop consisted in one plowing to the
depth or four - ■ ave inches, carefully avoiding
to go so deep as to disturb the manure—all
subsequent cultivation was done with the
cultivator. This land, after the ab ve meth
od j, of treatment, yielded an average of eighty
bushels of corn per acre. Tbe crop of corn
is usually followed by one of wheat or rye.
Tbe above manure was made from the lit
ter and manure furnished by 75 head of cat
tle, 10 horses and colts, 50 hogs, and say
about 6 loads of ashes. I employed about
four ordinary hands in tbe process, and do
not think that tbe cost of hauling and prepar
ing the aforesaid manure, exceeded in amount
the growth and increase of tbe stock of hors
es, cattle, etc., over and above what it would
have been, had I permitted them to run at
large. My cattle are all stabled and littered
diwn every few days with wild grass, straw,
hay, and weeds, which, at the end of ten days
is removed directly to the field as before sta
ted. I wish to have it particularly borne in
mind, that one great and important de-ideras
turn is, to bury the manure so deep with the
plow, that all subsequent cultivation of the
crop does not disturb and bting it to the sur
face—thus preventing evaporation and the
escape of ammonia, which takes place in a
greater or less degree where the manure is
exposed on tbe surface of’tbeground. Below
I have prepared a table of the profits and
loss of tho aforesaid operation :
Sixty Acres of Land, DR. and OR. for two
years before I commenced improving its
fertility—not taking into account the culti>

t Hr. Stephens.
A Washington letter of the 2d says:
Alexander H. Stephens, of Georgia, is in
tbe city, and speaks calmly but encouraging.y
of the condition of society and tbe tone of
public opinion in that State. Tho labor ques
tion is fast adjusting itself, and less animosity
exists between blacks and whites than North
ern people generally suppose. As an evi
dence of this, he cites the tact that the Geors
gia Legislature passed an act providing, in a
few words, that freedmen shall have the right
to contract and to enforce contracts,to sue and
and be sued, to testify in courts, and to be
submitted to the same punishments for like
offenses as whites; the same’statutes apply to
blacks and whites, and the same courts lake
cognizance of the offenses. No distinction is
made on account of race or color, so that all
stand equal before the law. Beyond this,
however, Mr. Stephens asserts that the peo
ple of Georgia desire nothing so much as their
practical restoration to the Union, and that
they honestly intended to adapt themselves to
tbe new condition by which they are sur-,
rounded, and make good their professions of
sincerity.
Congressional Proceedings.
Washington, April, 4th.—Senate.—Mr.
Stewart moved that the special Committee of
Fifteen be discharged from further consideras
tion of tbe plan of reconstruction recently
submitted by him, and that his resolution be
made the special order for to-morrow. He
spoke of tbe impatience of the country for
some definite plan of reconstruction at the
hands of Congress.
Tbe expiration of the morning cut off any
discussion.
On motion of Mr.’ Stewart the veto message
was taken up at 1 o'clock.
Mr. Trumbull took the floor in defense of
tbe Civil Rights Bill.
House.—No action of general interest was
taken by the House.
The Authorship of the Veto Message
A Washington correspondent in noticing the
report that Hon. He.iry of Ohio,
had prepared the late veto message of the
President, says that it has its foundation only
in tbe fact that Mr. Stanbery, in company
with friends, called on Thursday evening last,
just before his departure for the West,to pay
bis respects to tho President, and the con
versation happening to turn upon the Civil
Rights Bill, Mr. Johnson requested Mr. Stan
bery to state his legal opinion of its provis
ions, which request Mr. Stanbery promptly
complied with. And it may be added that
the President has, on this subject, availed
himsilf of the opinions of other lawyers of
equal eminence and like ability, so that the
veto message is abundantly fortified by the
best legal talent in the country.
Gough, the Temperance Lecturer.—This
gentleman published a day or two ago that
be would deliver a temperance lecture at tbe
Philadelphia Academy of Music. A crowd
assembled, and, instead of a temperance lec
ture, be made a Radical political harangue,
in which he basely slurred the President, and
gave tho malignant enemies of the Adminis
tration cause to get up a “prolonged ap
plause.”
