Andy Johneon's Last Speech The Columbia Daily Union says; t Fx President Johnson has been again at a bis old trade of cpccch*making. At a meet- n ing of the mechanic*, a few days since, a), j IU? Industrial Exposition, in Knoxvills, he delivered one ot his charneteristie harangues, when he took oceaeion to tell his fellow mechanics, that oft'told-tale, of passing through polities! life " from a village aldors man to the highest office within the gift ol tho people." The ex-President is as valuable as ever, and as uiuch at home on the stump, as he was when " swinging round the circle" as ehiof magistrate of a great nation. In this last effort, Andy has gone beyond his usual depth, and has really bit upon anew idea. In speaking of the system of convict labor, he says: I am asked how I would dispose of the eon* victs ae the ponlttntmry system Is wrong. I say dispensa with yonr penitentiaries; dispose of your esavtets in some other fp. II w# ? ean do nothing else, I would divide all offenders into two classss.

Well, eir, I mit mm* back to oar travele, and merge the politician In tha tourist. Leev. ln| Colombia, wo passed, via Branohvilto, tbroagb that moat lovely and interesting conns try, to- Augusta. I don't know what such a cowntry la good for, nnloaa it aoavoa to bold the world together. It it a wonder to mo that all the people. who live wfong thla railroad don't tarn to wiggfetaila, tadpolea and bullfrogs. It wae Sunday, and, Mr. Editor, I do verily believe that I aaw at leaat three hundred and forty thoorand negroes between Columbia and Augurta. Wa left Aogorta after dark | fixed onreolves to have, aa we aoppoaed, a pleaaapt night'a alcep ; hot alaa I man proposes and woman disposes. We were lying very quietly, and thinking of that beautiful verse In Proverbs, " Blessed is the man -who invented sleep." When suddenly a full elioir of babies burst forth in a grand overture, and mighty ehorus, whioh was moreorfal than the noise made by two eats a courting. At one time I thought I would rise and deliver a full lecture on the proper management of babiea; but as my experience was limited, I didn't. After so .long a time, the little pledges of afTeetion got quibt, and then eominenoed another grand overture from the snorers, and for the first time in my life I knew that lovely blondes did rore, I mentally exclaimed, in the language of 8trepbon, to bis lovely Cbloe, " Great God, haa It come to thla I"?you can finish the rhyme. One of the beauties, but a moat unohriatUn anorer, was so close that I could have raacbad out my band and almost touched bar. " lloni soil qui nnl y ptm*." We reached Atlanta about the cracking and breaking of day, and from the noiso aod confusion that deafened me, I thought that I wm in the midst of the matter and crush of worlds. I am positively Certain that thero was exactly forty hotel porters a hold of my umbrella at the same time. After extricating myself from this dilemma, I am positively certain that I again encountered exactly five hundred and thirty-soven men who proposed to take eare of me. Finally, I reached the llikimball llouso, and registered ourself as one of the press gaog?our authorised correspondent. I' am fully persuaded that Atlanta is most undoubtedly the most perfectly red-hot olty to be found. Tbo proprietor asked us what paper wo represented, and when told, be very politely requested that we would allow him to show us through the House. We were carried to No. 5, which is tho bridal chamber. It is composed of three rooms, all of which can be thrown into one large room. When we stood in the centre of those royal apartments, and gated upon the grandeur and mngniflcenoe around us, wo thought that possibly wc might have been kidnapped by some Uouii, and carried to Aladdin's Palace, and we pinched ourself to see it it really were us. This chamber uiuii sacredly d.dic??.j -. ur~.?. Dim and Venus. Look at that gorgeous piece fyr repose. The bed was all foreign ; the richest ana most beautiful of silk and linen, brought from foreign countries, were the coverings ; immediately over and looking down upon the bed, is a due perco painting of Venas and Cupid. Tbo bureaus, chairs, tables and wardrobes are all of tho costliest material, and mttch of it inlaid with pare mother of pearl; the walls are solid Freneh glass mirrors; the pyramidal chandeliers were beautiful; statuettes and paintings in good taste. Indeed, there is a | rainbow beauty about the apartments which | you can feel, but not describe. We I" the ancient ?! ?<? now Jupiter and Juno, and the other godi and goddesses, reveled In their delighttnl grottoes, sipped nectar and talked love, and we can imagine the delightfal bymenial inspiration of the bridal fair, as with soft glances and words of love they woo them* selves to sleep, In this gorgeous room. Keno 1 " Ob, woman ! woman ! thou shouldyst have few sins Of thine own to answer for, thou art tho author Of such a hook of follies in a man." The building, with its turreted mansard roof, is very imposing; it is at least twenty years ahead of Atlanta. When I get married, I wish some one to present the bride with a mm" sard roof of Welsh slate, and a magnificent hotel elevator. When you consider the tout tniemhl* of this Illkitnhall House, you must pronounce it a tit/ ifeitre of architectural skill. I know you will think that I got my hoard free. We next took the train for Cartersvitle. Defore we bad scarcely got comfortably seated, we we found ourself engaged ia a pleasant e<*iver satlon with the distinguished authoress and live woman, Mrs.A 11. Meeker, eards were exehaag* ed, and we were at once Intimate friends.? What a pleasure It Is to have a hen rfront for a traveling companion, and how unpleasant It Is to travel with a corpse. Mrs. M., sen* ceremony, plunged at once fn mediae res, and hr three hours and a half I listened, most patient* ly, to her thrilling autobiography, looked at criticisms on ber books, read a few edltorlels | on her great success as a lecturer.
