What Will President Johnson Do?
Kinrtinpout with the aliove interrogatory, the
New York Day Book, of the 24th, publishes a
most extraordinary article—extraordinary’ in its
inception and conclusions. We copy a portion
ot it below, that the Southern reader may see
tiiis view of a prominent Norttiern journal. Al
luding to the policy of the President to get the
“negro question out of the way,” the article con
tinues as follows:
Hut Mr. Johnson has failed, signally, fatally
failed. Instead of getting the negro question
out ot the way by his policy, be 1ms only suc
ceeded in getting it exactly in the way. So far
trom conciliating the abolitionists by carrying
out Mr. Lincoln's unholy and sinful edict, lie has
exasperated them to such a degree that they de
sire above all things to hang him ! Mr. Johnson
having, therefore, such poor luck in trying the
role of conciliator, why does lie not abandon that
policy and try the virtue of a plain, old-fashion
ed Democraticfight? Hois commander-in-chief
• >t the army; let him withdraw every soldier
from Southern soil, and turn over the whole
question to the courts. Let this he done at once,
so that the Southern State Legislatures may be
got together to pass some laws to reinstate the
negroes to their late masters—to save them as a
matter of humanity from the disease, death, and
destruction awaiting them this winter. It is also
important that it should tie done at oner, so that
the planters may secure their laborers aud make
preparation for the next year. If this were done
now, we should have at least two millions of
bales of cotton next year—perhaps three.
The only difficulties in the way of this, after
the troops arc removed, are legal ones. But these
arc less difficult than may, at first, be imagined.
True, most of the Stale Constitutions of the
Southern States now declare that there shall be
no “ involuntary service ” hereafter in those
States; but those Constitutions, we believe, were
never submitted to the people for their approval,
and the courts would doubtless hold them in
valid. As tor the amendment to ttie Federal
Constitution, the illegality of that is manifest
and apparent. It was ratified formally, and un
der duress, by three-fourths of the 8tat.es, and
Unit would render it invalid, if nothing else. But
it was never originated by two-thirds of Congress,
us the Constitution expressly requires. If it re
quires three-quarters of all the States to ratify a
constitutional amendment, as Mr. Johnson and
Mr. Seward both hold, surely it just as certainly
requires two-thirds of a full Congress to organize it.
Let Mr. Johnson, therefore, since the failure
of liis cllort to conciliate the mongrels has been
so conspicuous, fall back upon the Shcrman-
Jolmston terms of surrender, and the July, 1861,
resolution ot Congress. This is an impregnable
position, aud from this rock be can make a fight
that will win. lie will no longer be, like Malia-
nied’s coffin, suspended between heaven aud
earth; but on the firm foundations of the Old
Union and the Old Constitution, he will rally
around him all the earnest, unterrified Demo
cracy of the country. Let him take this position
in his torlhcomiug message, and “Andrew John
son for President in 1870” would instinctively
leap trom a million ot throats. He has one more
last chance to make his name gloriously immor
tal. and that is, to plant himself firmly upon tiie
lestorution of the Constitution as it came to us
from our forefathers. If he does not do this, a
regenerated Democracy will arise, and sweeping
away the rubbish of the broken-down politicians,
quack-doctors, knaves, and fools, who have tor
tured and tormented our country for the past
five years, it will nominate men whose garments
arc not dyed in the blood of their Southern
brethren; aud with the Old Constitution, the
Old Union, White Supremacy, and State
Equality, inscribed upon their banners, will
enter the fight resolved to conquer, or if go down
they must, tall with the old flag flying.
The readers of the Intelligencer will do us
the favor to keep in mind that the above is not
ihe expression and sentiments of a Southern pa
per, but the views and sentiments of a Northern
journal of large circulation and commanding in
ti uenoe.
Stagnation In Business.
In the National Intelligencer of last Friday, we
find an article iu reference to the stagnation in
business, of which there is general complaint
throughout the North and East. We quote, and
invite attention, with the remark, that this is
probably the beginning of the end, and that the
evil will continue to grow, and spread, aud wi
den until the entire policy ot the destructives is
changed:
Commerce is stagnant Hesitation and torpor
have succeeded to the activity and excitement
which lately prevailed in business matters. Peo
ple inquire for the reason. There is a plethora
of money, and there will be an abundance ot
grain and provisions, and the cotton crop and
some other ot the staple products are large
enough tor home supply and to furnish consider
able surplus tor export. Other causes than inad
equate production must be looked to tor the gen
eral depression of trade and the prevailing dis-
Irust of the future. A political reason for doubt
as to the recovery of confidence and energy is
given—to wit, that the elections have settled
nothing, and have served to widen the sectional
breach. The Radicals will insist upon their
views, and the Southern anil Border States are
determined not to yield to threats, come what
may. Agitation in Congress and tlie country
must continue till the body politic be restored to
its normal condition. Another year, or two or
t hree years, of present disruption, may produce
chronic disorders that will be beyond the reach
of remedy. This is the chiet cause ot business
trouble that is but just beginning to disclose it
self, and which will come thicker anil faster after
the opening of the session.
Another cause is assigned for commercial dull- J
uess—namely, that business has been stimulated !
and excited by a continually increasing issue of
■currency. Trade has been conducted with suc
cess, as is always the case on a rising market. 1
Important Intelligence from Mexico.
Washington, Nov. 2-5.—Official dispatches
which have reached Minister Romero from Mex
ico states that Col. Garcia, appointed Military
Governor of Puebla, has established his govern
ment at the city of Tacapaxtla, and issued a pro
clamation to the people of the Slate, calling on
them to take up arms against the invaders.—
Governor Garcia reports that the French have
lost the whole of Puebla, keeping only the line
of the main road from Vera Cruz to the City of
Mexico.
The President'* nessage -( Isinis upon
Great Britain, etc,
W ashixgton, Nov. 25.—Some of the corres
pondents are speculating as to what will be the
contents of the President’s forthcoming annual
message, and some of them broadly assert that
he will make terms with Congress on the restora
tion policy, in view of the recent State elections.
This, too, is mere speculation, and it is, therefore,
better to wait for positive inlormation—for the
message itself. It will be remembered that, in
the many speeches which the President made in
his late trip North and West, he said he had no
new policy to announce, and the future would be
best indicated by bis past career.
Nothing definite has yet been received b\- tiie
Government in relation to the claims upon Great
Britain for damages to commerce, caused by the
Alabama and other Confederate privateers. The*
correspondence between the two governments is
still in progress. It i3 a fact, however, that the
present British Ministry is more disposed than
the former one to give due and lair consideration
to the entire subject.
A committee has been dispatched North by
the leading Radicals here, to collect money to
defray the expenses attending the formal cere
monies of all returning Radical members, and
giving them a banquet next Saturday.
Negro Regiment Mastered Out.
Washington, Nov. 25.—Another negro regi
ment, the 107th Kentucky, lately encamped on
Virginia side of the Potomac, have been mus
tered out of the service, and are abont leaving
for Louisville.
New York Market.
New York, Nov. 25.—The last sale of gold
yesterday was 138}, and the market is steady at
that figure. Cash gold was loaned as high as
132 per cent, premium at one time, but after
wards 3 to 4 per cent, was paid to have it carried.
The stock market improved late in the day. The
shipments of specie for the week amounted to
seven hundred aud eighty-two thousand dollars,
and the total imports for tiie week were nearly
four millions.
The Coolie Trade—Mexican A flail-** Ac.
Washington, Nov. 26.—Having suppressed
the slave trade, our Government has taken steps
to arrest the Coolie trade. Captain Napoleon
Collins, commander of the Sacramento, sailed a
few days since for China, carrying with him full
instructions from the State Department to look
into the Coolie trade, and after a thorough exam
ination to report all facts to his Government,
with a view to an early amelioration, if not en
tire suppression of this traffic.
Secretary Seward had contemplated sending
a special agent to China on this business, but as
Captain Collins seemed well qualified to dis
charge all the duties of sucli mission, lie was
commissioned.
A telegram from Galveston announces that all
the troops in Texas have been ordered to occupy
the encampment along and immediately in the
neighborhood of the railroads leading to the
Gull. This contradicts the idea that the troops
are moving towards the Rio Grande, where there
is no enemy as far as can be ascertained.
Instructions to Minister Dix have but little re
ference to Mexican affairs, our government relv-
upon Napoleon’s promise to withdraw his
troops from Mexico. The rumor that Napoleon
had notified the Washington Cabinet of the
postponement of the withdrawal until spring, is
untrue. Our relations with Mexico are less com
plicated than late dispatches from this city indi
cate. Minister Campbell has no instructions
whatever to tender a tri-parti treaty, nor is the
French interest to be considered by him in any
way, neither is any cession of Mexican territory
contemplated by our government; but the Con
stitutional party is to be supported, if necessary,
by military force. The mission of General Sher
man is simply to review the military situation of
affairs iu Mexico, and use his assurances that
our government will sustain the Constitutional
party. It is confidently believed such represent
ations will be sufficient tocheckall revolutionary
plans, and secure stability to the Juarez govern
ment.
Owing to the pressure of business in the pre
paration of the annnal message, no definite ac
tion has been taken upon the application of the
Mississippi Legislature for the release or parole
of Jefferson Davis. Commissioners Ilillyer and
Lowry are still awaiting the final decision ot the
Executive.
The committee of arrangements for a mass
welcome to Congress have concluded upon a
grand banquet at the fair buildings. As the
closing feature of the festival invitations have
been issued to Republican Governors aud pro
minent public men.
The report on Finance is completed and in
type, and will be ready for distribution to the
press of the principal cities simultaneously with
its delivery to Congress.
The “Sunday law" has been strongly enforced
throughout the city to-day. All restaurants, bars
and cigar stores were closed.
Minister Romero had no part in the arrest ot
Ortega at New Orleans. The request for Orte
ga’s release by the Mexican Consul at New Or
leans was not acceded to by our Government.
The recent victories of Gen. Diaz at Oaxaca
will cause the French to lose the other line of the
road, which can be cut off at any moment by for
tifying.

and other authorities of the Island. They ex
pected to stay there about ten days.
Quarantine regulations are enforced only
against vessels from Philadelphia and New Or
leans.
Refused to take Negro Evidence.
Baltimore, Nov. 20.—Some weeks since, in
a case before the Circuit Court of Anne Arundel
county, .Judge Magruder refused to allow the
evidence of a colored woman to be received,
stating that, acording to the laws of Maryland,
no negro could testify in any case where one of
the parties to the suit was a white man.
He also declared that the Civil Rights bill was
unconstitutional. On Saturday he was taken
before United States Commissioner Brooks, on
the charge of a violation of the act. and he de
clined an examination and gave bond to await
the action of the United States Grand Jury in
December. It is intended to make this ease a
test question as to the constitutionality of the
Civil Rights bill, as .Judge Giles' decision will be
appealed from and the case taken to the Supreme
court.

Learn a Trade.
Why is it that the proportion of young men
in this eountiy who turn out badly is so much
larger than it used to be ? Every moralists, aud,
in lact, every close observer, kuows that the pro
portion of shiftless, good-for-nothing young men
has largely increased within the last few years,
particularly in this and other large cities, but
those who discuss the subject seem to be at a
loss for the true explanation. In our judgment
the question is one of very easy solutionr We
attribute it to the spirit of false pride which in
duces parents to put their boys in store and offices
rather than to apprentice them to good trades.—
In this city, at the present time, merchants,
bankers, insurance men, and others of this class
are overrun with applications from pareuts who
want situations for their boys; but manufac
turers fiud if almost impossible to get appren
tices. It was not so in former times. Fitly years
ago—much later, in fact—parents generally re
garded a trade as something essential in the pre
paration of their boys for the battle of life. Even
men whose circumstances did not require them
to do manual work, made it a point to have their
l»oys learn trades, in order to give them practical
ideas about business, to make them industrious,
and also to furnish them something to fall back
upon in case of adversity. How is it now?
Mechanics and laboring men, even, have too
generally imbibed the idea that they ought to
place their boys a peg above the drudgery of
manual labor. They seem to think that they are
not doing justice to them unless they place them
in positions where they can wear “nobby” clothes
and keep their hands white. There never was a
greater mistake. Look at the leading men in
our country, from the President down, and you
will see that, as a rule, it is the men who learn
ed trades in their youth who have become the
foremost iu every branch of progress and enter
prise. The boy who is placed in a store or office
usually gets his head full of vanity and self-con
ceit before he has been long in his position. He
acquires an inordinate love of dress, and soon
becomes so puffed up in his own estimation that
practical common sense can find no lodgment in
his brain. His aim is to dress as well and live as
high as those with whom he comes in contact,
and he is quite likely to go from habits of extra
vagance to habits of dissipation. We do not
wish to be understood as saying that this is the
road which all boys travel who do not learn
trades. We simply say that such is the tendency,
and it requires a boy of good mind, fortified by
good early training, to resist the temptation. The
boy who is put to a trade, on the other hand,
gives vauity but little chance to get hold ol him.
He acquires practical ideas about business; his
habits are molded by frugality and economy, and
he lays the foundation of a good, useful and in
dustrious citizen. The idea that manual labor is
not “respectable,” is one of the absurdest things
in this age of absurdities. No person with a
thimble-full of brains will say anything of the
kind, and those silly creatures who do say so are
generally the degenerate sons of hard-working
mechanics. Every boy, whether rich or poor,
high or low, ought to learn a trade—not that he
should always work at it, but that he may have
it as reserve capital, together with it3 influence
in forming his character.
Tbe Crops.
We copy the following article in regard to the
crops from the New Y’ork Tribune :
The late crops of the season are now mostly
housed. As was feared, the early frosts in the
Northwest, reaching Southward to embrace one-
third of the State of Illinois, did considerable
damage to the corn crop. Accounts from the
section thus affected report much soft and im
mature com. Throughout the country, however,
the crop is above the aveiage annual yield,
though not so very large as was expected it
would be three months ago.
The potato crop is large, but unfortunately the
tubers are infected with rot, so much so that
dealers refuse to buy in large quantities, and
prices are consequently low.
The apple crop is fair in the Western States,
and the fruit is of excellent quality. In the
Middle and Eastern States, the yield is light.
The hop crop has been over-estimated. It
will not, as has been supposed, be unusually
large, but will barely exceed the average har
vest.
Grapes are in fair supply, but of inferior qual
ity. In many localities, by reason of early frost,
the fruit failed to ripen, and hence is dry and in
sipid. Good grapes are very scarce, and in great
demand.
Though we arc without definite information
on the yield of the bean crop, the high prices,
active inquiry, and small supply indicate a short
crop.
The New York market has never, hitherto,
been so completely overrun with cattle, Logs and
sheep. They are poured in upon us from all
parts of the West, where the supply seems to be
inexhaustible; and both growers and dealers
are anxious to sell at present prices, which are
radually settling to a lower basis.
Turkeys w r cre never before so abundant
throughout tbe country. Small poultry is also
in full supply. Present high prices, theretofore,
are purely speculative, and must eventually break
down.
The quantity of butter made this fall is truly
enormous, and a vast supply is held by both
dairymen and dealers, who have overheld them
selves, and will now be compelled to reduce their
stocks at lower figures, as the supply is quite too
large to maintain present prices. The accumu
lation of cheese even exceeds that of butter, and
must for the same cause experience a decline in
price.
Wool is in good supply. The shearing was
larger than usual, and of fair quality. The army
demand having ceased, the market is inactive,
and has already experienced a marked decline.
News and Other Items.
A family has been discovered in Chicago in a
starving condition, and the wife and mother
claims to be a sister of John Morrissey, Con

The Amenities—How Soldiers Meet.
Under this head the Louisville Journal gives
the following pleasant account of a recent meet
ing in that city between its late townsman, Gen.
E. K. Smith, and Gen. J. B. Hood, and also be
tween the latter and Gen. George H. Thomas, of
the United States Army:
During the past few days several distinguished
Confederate officers have been in the city on busi
ness connected with their peaceful avocations.—
The meeting between E. Kirby Smith and John
B. Hood was more than cordial; it was affection
ate. They had not met before since the close of
the war, and their greeting was that of true and
tried friends, who loved and trusted each other.
We have no inclination to pry into the privacies
of two such men, but the twinkle of laughing
eyes and inferred fun expressed in their greeting,
and use of old nicknames—their significance
best known to themselves—told of pleasant by
gones.
But a nobler exhibition of the generosity of
mind and personal honor was that afforded yes
terday in the meetings of General George H.
Thomas with his old comrade in arms. ex-Gen-
eral John B. Hood. Upon two disastrous fields
for the Confederacy Gen. Thomas had been
matched against Hood, and had overwhelmingly
beaten him at Franklin and Nashville, and added
lustre to the stars and stripes. Yesterday, as
Gen. Hood stumped into the dining-room of the

Sociability Among; Farmers.
Naturally, the farmer is an unselfish man.—
His labors are mostly out of doors. His calling
takes him much abroad, and enables him to min
gle considerably with the world. Yet, looking
at the very large proportion of the population
embraced in this pursuit, and the important influ
ence exercised by it over all our affairs, it is a
subject of common remark, even by all agricul
turalist themselves, that their social intercourse
should be so much restricted.
There is no cause for exclusiveness on the part
of farmers that we can see than the “ treading
in the footsteps of their predecessors.” Be this
as it may, there are other causes at work chang
ing this for the better. Country fairs, bringing
agriculturists together from districts sufficiently
near to each other to make acquaintanceship
pleasant and lasting, and putting them in friend
ly emulation in matters and things involving their
agrestic skill and their success, are clearly work
ing to form more close companionship between
those whose domestic comforts and family enjoy
ments must be greatly promoted in future.
Little clubs among the farmers of a neighbor
hood, to meet once a week to discuss or talk over
the innumerable subjects connected with the intel
ligent prosecution of their noble profession, pro
duce a decidedly fraternizing and socializing
effect. While these local associations should not
be too formal and restricted, they should have
an official organization as better calculated to
cause punctuality at the meetings, as well as to
add to their permanency.
On these occasions, the wives and daughters
of families should always accompany their hus
bands, fathers, or brothers—not to participate, of
course, in the proceedings that may take place,
hut to increase the agreeability of the meetings,
and to share in the pleasure of these delightful
interchanges of good neighborhood. Indeed, if
the truth must be spoken—and we are ready to
do it upon all occasions, especially upon such a
one as this—there is very little social enjoyment
in the world which is not refined and made
doubly enjoyable by the presence of woman.
A Happy People.—Tbe New Y'ork Herald
in discussing “Russo-Prussian alliance,” gives its
readers the following new and interesting piece
of intelligence :
“In the United States are tree and happy mil
lions governing themseives with democratic
institutions.”
It is quite refreshing, replies the Washington
Union, to know this fact for the first time, and
we must confess ourselves under many obliga
tions to the Herald tor its astuteness in making
the discovery, though we don’t exactly see it
and doubt very much if the dull comprehensions
of others, less wise than the Herald, see it either.
Errors op Youth.—A gentleman who suffered for
years from Nervous Debility. Premature Decay, and all
the effects of youthful indiscretion, will, for the sake of
suffering humanity, send free to all who need it, the re
ceipt and directions for making the eimple remedy by
which he was cured. Snfferers wishing to profit by the
advertiser’s experience, can do so by addressing in per

§30 REWARD.
L OST, by the undersigned, between LaGrange and
GrantviUe. on the 31st ultimo, a DOUBLE-CASED
Thomas rose from his seat to meet the maimed
and gallant Hood, and cordially greeted his old
companion in arms. The two Generals dined
together like old friends, and no doubt had many
reminiscences to recall of scenes
field in auld lang syne. Their interview was
most genial and pleasant, apparently, and we
believe that such meetings go further to re-unite
the late opposing sections than a thousand reso
lutions of wordy fealty.
