Epitome of Telegraphic News. ' fCOXVILKD moM ma OBKUOHI.VX. DATES TO APUM. 2X. '.', Chicago, April 19. President Joltnson, in reply to a serenade from tbe soldiers and sailors, last ereuingj said: We are involved in tbe most cr.ticul and trying struggles tbut hiive occurred since this Government came into existence. Tbe Government hits, an other trial still to gov through Unit is to give evidence to the uutioos of tbe enrtli nnd its unu (;ii-iaciis mm it. mis power cuuugu iu nut ' down trenofiery nt home and treason within its own borders. Ubeers. We have com menced tuat stiugglo, and 1 trust in (lod we will puss througn it successfu.lv. The or. gauized And combined powers that recently stood arrayed against us are disbanded and driven from the ti Id. but it docs not follow ; that tliereare no enemies aiid traitors against ". our prest-nt form of Government und our in stitutions. I st iod in the Sena e of the united State denying thk doctrine of seces sion; I think I have given some evidence , that I have becu sincere and in varuest, and ;,' pack of Blunderers ure snapping at ray beels. ', l.'hecrs. Why is it they array themselves itgainsc me f is it Because I stand ou tbe ., side of the people? and when I say the peo ple I include soldiers nnd suitors. Cheers Why is it they arrayed in traducing and vil lif'ying and calumniating me? Where were uuy uuriug iiie reoeuiuu r invoice "ai homo in bed." In the Senate I rased my voice ngninst it, nnd when it was believed it would be to the interest of the nation to legist in put'ing down the rebellion did I not leave my place in tho Senate, a place of emolumum an i distinction, and takc'iny po .siiion whoie the enemy could be ro.ichcd, nnd' where men's lives were in danger; cheers while I win opposed personally and publicly hy some of my prcseut traducers Hnd, calumniators, who were far removed from tho foe and who were enjoying ease nnd comfort. But I caro not for them. I , cure not that slander, the foul wbelp of sin, hu3 been let loose against me. 1 care not lor all that ; nnd let me tell you here to day, that although pielty well advanced in life, I fuel that I shall survive I0113 enough to live down the whole pack of traducers nnd slan derers. fApnlim-e 1 Thcv have turned tho whole pack loose to lower me in your esti , niation. A voice 1 tby onnot do that." blanch?, Tray, Sweetheart, and all the liitle dogs come along, snapping at my heels, but 1 heed tbein not. Cheers. The American people, citizens, soldiers, and Siilors, Know that from my advent into public lii'o to ttie pre-ent liour, I have tilways stand, the un yielding and unwavering de'eiider of their . rights and interests. When rebellion in Massachusetts was put down, did that put Massachusetts out of tbe Union and destroy t!iu State? When rebellion in Pennsylvania was put down, did that destroy the State nod put it out of the Onion ? So when the recent great rebellion was clo.-ed, those ; Mates constituting a part or tbe glorious Union wero restored. '.. A great deal was done in Tennessee under my predecessor. Wo commenced the work together: we succeeded before I assumed my 1 . present position iu restoring the troubles vriiicu uuu c&ioieu outweeu lunnessee unl MIU IKt ui .u J mull null uug CAVCjJUUU, and that was representation. I curuo to s' Washington under extraordinary circum tttaucea and succeeded to tbe Presidency. hat then I Uongrcss had adjourned with nut presenting any plan. I then procced"d, 11s 1 have beeu dome in my own State, to re store the other S ates. We found the people liad no courts, ana we said to the Judges . District Attorneys and Marshals : Go down and hold your courts ; the peoplo need that iIir tribunals of iiiRtir.H ahull hn nnonprl Was that wrong t The courts were opened. We looked abo.:t nnd saw that tho people down there had no mails., Thoy bail becu interrupted and cnt o(F by the rebellion. Wo said to the Postmaster (iunernl. let the peoplo have mail facilities and then they will begin to understand that we nil feel and think that we are one people.. We looked about and saw that there was a blockade, that the custom houses wero closed, and we snid let tlio doors of the custom lvuscs be opened and remove tho blockade. Let trado . nnd commerce bo restored, and it was done Wo thus traveled, opening custom-houses, restoring mall, nnd re establishing all tbe , customs that had been inieirupted by the rebellion. . Was there anything hero that was not authorised by the constitution nnd . justified by tho great necessities of the case? .Now what remains to be doner it is to a a . niit tbeir repiesentatives. Cheers. When tionul and law-abiding scn-e as we intended at the beginning of (he Government, ail that is needed Is fur tho Houses respectively in determine tbe question. 11 'it some one will say, a traitor might come. in. The nnswer to that is, that each House must be the judge; and when traitors present themselves t-anuot either Houfe know that they are ' traitors? Cannot they kick them out doors and lend them back, saying to the peopl who sent them, you must sand loyal men Cheers, a4 vclce, that's logic Whit Is the difficulty about that? None. Cheers. II' a traitor presents himSelf to either House, cannot that House say no, you cannot bead mitted into eiiher body; go back; we will not deny your people representation, but they must send us loyal representatives. Cheers j When the State does send loyal representa tives ran you have any better loyalty? Whilo I have been contending against trai tors, treason, secession and dissolution of the Union, I have been at the same time contending against the consolidation of power hero. , I think that the consolidation of power here is equally dangerous with the separation of tbe States. That one would not be better used and might run into an archy, while, tbe other would concentrate nnd email even monarchy. But there is an idea nbroud that one man can be a des pot, that ono man can bo an usurper, but tlmt one or two hundred men cannot. Mr. Jefferson, the aposile of liberty, tells us, and so does common sense, thai despotism can bn exercised hr iiihiit more rigorously than by one. What power has your Presi dent? What can he do? What can he originate? Why, they any be exorcises the veto power. What is the veto power? A voice a vote 10 put down the nigger, Laughter. Who is President? Voices Andy Johnson. Is be nut elecird by the people? The President is nothing more than the Tribune of the people the office a Tri bune in cbarncier. In olden times when the Roman Semite was encroaching on the people's rights, and putting' its heels ot power on the necks of the people, the peo pie choso a Tribuno and placed Lira nt the door of the Senate, so that when that power ventured such an act he was clothed wilh power to say." Vein; I forbid." Your Pres ident now is the Tribune of bis people. I thank God, nnd intend lu assert the power which the people have placed in 111 V bauds. Isaac K. Bi.ocn. Sun Francisco. C. S.
