THE PRESIDENT'S SPEECH, His Poliry Boldly Enunciate Thousands As'scin. I: tl to Hear It Prolonged ami Enthusiastic Ap plause. At 6 o'clock this evening a procession of soldiers .aid bailors, and such of their friends who sympa thize with them in their grateful acknowledgment to the President for his order lately issued direct ing the heads of the different departments to give preference, in appointments and promotions to the subordinate offices, to persons who have ren dered honorable service in the army and navy, was formed and marched to the Executive Man sion with the Marine band, to serenade President Johnson, who signified to the committee that he would accept the compliment. A very large number of persons of both sexes wore previously on the ground awaiting the de monstration. At a quarter past 0 o'clock the band performed several patriotic airs, when the Presi dent made his appearance, and was greeted with huzzas by the assembled thousands, lie took it stand on the coping of the wall near the carriage way on the north side of the Mansion, when he was addressed on behalf of the soldiers and sailors by one of their number in highly complimentary terms, saying, in conclusion : " In re turn for your kindness we run but offer our sym r?fVi o kI prayer, and trust that an all-wise Providence, who hag brought our nation through a baptism of Mood, i .. w.i m we consecrate it anew, free from slavery aud !y a nation".- tears, will so guide an J direct you that you may cul'it the troubled waters, harmonize public opinion, and restore our whole ble.-svd country once inure to peace a: id ; n-peritv. President Johnson said: it i.i not affectation m me to say that language is inadequate, to carry the heartfelt feelings produced on this occasion by your presence here, and by the "presentation of your sentiments as expressed by your representa tive in his address, and in the resolution whieh vou have thought ju-oper to adopt. I confess that, ;n the peculiar posture of public affairs, 'your presence and address give encouragement and eonhdence to me in my efforts to discharge the duties incumbent upon me as Chief Magistrate of the Republic. And i n what I have to say, 1 shall ad dress you in the character of citizens, sailors and lditrs. I shall speak to you on those terms, and n none others. 1 repeat, my thanks for the manifestation of your approbation and encouragc ,;ent. Applause. We arc to-da"1, ;riv 4ved in one of the most criti- .1 and trying struggles that have occurred since ids (iovernment was spoken into existence. Xa iions, like individuals, must have a- beginning must have a birth. In struggling into existence a .at ion passes through itslirst trying ordeal. It is Kt necessary for me now to carry your minds Mck to the struggle when this nation M as born. It . nM necessary for me to allude to the privations id hardships of those who were engaged in that frucgle to achieve the national birth. It is not ;:-et -sa ry to point to the blood shed and the lives ii-t in accomplishing that result. The next ordeal through which a nation has to as- is when it is called upon to give evidence that it has strength, capacity and power to maintain itM-lf among the nations of the earth. In giving , i - - 1 il 1- il r 101.V li evidence we passed uiroium uie war oi kjia nd through the war with Mexico ; and we passed through all the struggles that have since occurred up to the beginning of the rebellion. This was mr "second ordeal. But a nation has another test dill to undergo, and that is to give evidence to the nations of tho earth and to its own citizens That it has power to resist internal foes that it ii;is strength enough to put down treachery at home and treason within its own borders. Cheers. We have commeuced that ordeal, and I trust in i. d we will pas through it successfully. Cheers. J feel complimented y the allusion of your re-;-;- sentatives to the fact that I stood in the Senate In lSUt) and 1861, when the nation was entering on this third ordeal, and raised my voice and hand igninst treason, treachery and traitors at home.

And now T want to know why it is that the whole train of slanderers, calumniators and tra iueers have been barking and snapping at my h .--els ? Cheers.

Why is it that they are arrayed in traducing and vilifying and calumniating me ? Where were they hiring the rebellion ? A voice "Home in bed" laughter. In tho Senate I raised my voice ;gainst it, and when it was belie"ed that it would he to the interest of the nation, and would assist in putting down the rebellion, did I not leave my place in the Senate a place of emolument, ease ; 'id distinction and take my position wheio the .

The American people, citizens, soldiers, and -ailors knew, that from my advent into public life, ' the present moment. 1 have always stood un- ! ldincrlv and unwaverincrlv by the advocates and !--fenders of their rights and interests. Cheers. We are now in the nation's third ordeal. We ,:v not vet through it. We said that States could : t go eiut of the Union. We denied the doctrine were riidit. We demonstrated by the strong arm. Ves, the soldiers and the sailors, God help them, ';;tvc demonstrated by their patriotic hearts and !vonj arms that States have not the right to leave ;he Union. Applause. What followed ? The Confederate armies were dispersed and disbanded, nd there was a willingness on the part of the eople of those States to come back, be obedient " . the laws, and acknowledge the supremacy of he Constitution of our fatheis. Ir what have we passed through this third or- ' al V Jt was to establish the principle that no - fate had the power to break up this Government, 'twas to put down the rebellion. The rebellion been put down, and for what ? Was it to de- Uoy the States? Cries, ' -never." For what have all these lives been sacrificed and all this treasure- expended ? Was it for the purpose of destroying the States ? Xo ! it was for the pur pose of preserving the States in the Union of our 5:uhers. Cheers. It was for that you fought. if was for that I toiled. Xot to break the Gov ernment, but to put down the rebellion and pre- ervo the Union of the States. That is what we have been contending for, and to establish the fact that the nation can lift itself above and be- voud intestine foes and treason and traitors at horue. !

In passing through this ordeal what has been -u le 'i Iu Tennessee, under the direction of my lamented predecessor, we commenced tho work of restoration.

I came to "Washington, and un der extraordinary circumstances succeeded to the Presidential chair. I then proceeded, as I Lad done in my own State, under the direction of the Government, to restore the other States, and how did we begin V We find that the people had no courts, and we tnid to the Judges, the District Attorneys, and Marshals, "go down and hold your courts. The people need tho tribunals of justice to be opened." Was there anything wrong in that ? The courts were opened. What else ? We looked out and saw that the people down there had no mails. They had been interrupted and cut off bv the op erations of the rebellion. We said to the Post master General, "let the people have facilities for mail communication, and let them begin again to understand what Ave all feel and think : that we arc one people. Ho looked out again and saw that there was a blockade that the custom houses were all closed. We said: "Open tho doors of the customhouse and remove the blockade. Let trade commence and the pursuit of peace be restored," and it was dene. Wo thus traveled on step by step, opening up custom Louses, appointing collectors, establish ing mail facilities and restoring all the relations that had been interrupted by the rebellion. Has there been anything undertaken to be done here that was not authorized by the Constitution? That was not justified by the great necessities of the case V that has not been clearly consonant with the Constitution and with the genius and theory of our Government V Cheers.) What remained to be done ? One other tiling remained to demonstrate to the civilized and pa gan world that we had passed successfully througli Uie Hum ordeal ot our national existence and proved that our government was perpetual. A great principle was to be restored which was es tablished in our revolution when our fathers were contending against the power of Great Britain. What was one of the principal causes of their com plaint? I t was that they were denied representa tion. They complained of taxation without rep resentation. Cheers. J One of the great princi ples laid down by our fathers, and which fired their hearts, was that there should be no taxation with- out representation. How then does the matter stand ? Who has Who has been defeating been usurping power 3 t.ie operation ot the constitution, and what now remains to be done to complete the restoration of these States to all their former relations under the federal government, and to finish the great ordeal througli which we have been passing? It is to admit representation. Cheers. Aud when we -ay admit representation, what do we mean ? We mean representation iu the constitutional aud law -abiding sense, as was intended at the beginning of the government. And where does that power lie ? The Constitu tion declares, in express terms, that each House, the Senate and House of Ilepresentatives, each acting for itself", shall be the judge of the returns of election and qualifications of its own members. It is for each House to settle that question under the Constitution, and under the solemn sanction of an oath, and can we believe that either House would admit any member into its body, to partici pate in the legislation of the country, who was not qualified and tit to sit iu that body and participate in its proceedings. They have the power not the two Houses but each House for itself. "While I have been contending against traitors, treason, and secession, and the dissolution of the Union, I have been contending tit the same time against the consolidation of power here. Cries of "good." I think the consolidation of power here is equally dangerous with the separation of the Staters. Cheer. The one would weaken us and might run into anarchv, while the other would c oncentrate and run into monarchy. Cheers, and cr es of "can't do it."'j Oh, but there is an idea abroad that one man can be i despot that one man can be a usurper but that a hundred or two men cannot. Mr. Jefferson, the apostle of liberty, tells us so does common sense that tyrany and despotism can be exercised by many more vigor ously and more tyranically than by one. What power has your 'resident to be a tyrant? What can he do? I am with you, citizens, soldiers and sailors. Who has sacrificed or periled more than the hum ble individual who addresses you? lias not my all been put upon it my life, my property ? Eve rything sacred and dear to man have been staked upon it, and could I now be suspected of faltering at the close of this third ordeal of the nation? Who is he, in public or private life, who has sncriliced more, or who has devoted more of his time and cneigies to the accomplishment of the great end, than I ? And I have done it from the promptings of my own heart and conscience. I believe I was right, and with your help and yoiu countenance and your encouragement, I shall go througli on that lino ! Cheers and laughter. And when I came to talk about sailors and soldiers, about this to be done and that to be done, all I want is for you to wait and see, so far as the fu ture is concerned. Wait and see if I do not stand by you, although every other may falter and fail. Cheers. I want to sec measures of policy brought forward that will advance the interests of the peo ple of that portion of the people who have con stituted the gallant and brave men who, in both branches of the service, have upheld the National lla g and sustained the country in the recent struggle. I thank you, gentlemen, for the encouragement I thank you for your continuance on this occa sion. It cheers mo on and gives me strength to perform the work before me. If we are true to ourselves if we arc true to the Constitution the day is not far distant w hen the Government will be restored. Let us enlarge the area of our com merce and trade. Let us iiot only inspire confi dence at home but respect abroad, by letting the nation i esume its career of prosperity and grcat ucss. I know that some will find fault with me and say I am too lenient, too kind and all that. If w e were all to be put to death or punished, or thrown away for one offence or for the second of fence, and were to be lost and excluded from so ciety and communion with our fellow men, liow rnaiiv of us woidd be left. sjjj " t" (hi' Prrlclcnt Tlic Sigro Olt-biatioii of Uiuuicialinn in Wu-siiiHgton, On Wednesday morning the negroes in Wash ington, to the number of about fifteen hundred, formed a procession at Franklin Square, and marched in order to tho Executive Mansion, where they were addressed by the President, who gave them some sensible advice on this occasion of their celebration of freedom. Long before noon an immense crowd was as sembled on the portico and about the grounds in front of the Executive Mansion. At noon the head of the procession commenced to defile through the gates of the White House iuclosure, and at the same instant an artillery salute was fired by a de tail of the Fourth United States artillery, Captain Follet, commanding. A number of mounted mar shals were in the van of tho procession, and one of these having notified the President of its arri val, he made his appearance at one of the upper window s, and was greeted with cheers. The band of the One Hundred aud Seventh United States colored troops then played "Hail Columbia," and in the meantime the President came out of the main entrance of the Executive Mansion, and took his stand on the stone coping just under the front of the portico : Marshal "1. S. Gooding, of the District of Columbia, on his right, and Colonel W. G. Moore, his private Secretary, on his left. The applause having subsided and order restored, the President addressed the immense throng as follow i : SPELCII OF mii riirsiDiNT.

Applause-. Then let me mingle with you in celebration of the dav which commenced your freedom. I do it in siuceritv and truth, and trust in God the blessings whieh have been con ferred may be enjoyed and appreciated by you, and that you may give them a proper direction. There is something for all to do. You have high and solemn duties to perform, and you ought to remember that ircedom is not a mere idea. It must be reduced to practiual reality. 3 en in being free have to deny them sc Ives many tLiiigs which seem to be embraced in "the idea cf universal freedom.

Then let nie thank vo:i with sincerity for the i onipliment you have paid me by passing through here, to-day nnd paying your respects tome. 1 repeat again, the time will come when you will know who lias been your best friend, and who has not been your friend from mercenary considerations. Accept my thanks. The President, after concluding his remarks, waited some lime outside while the procession passed, and during this time large numbers of the colored people advanced to pay their respects to him and take him by the hand. The President was repeatedly and enthusiasti cally cheered during the delivery of the above address and the passage of tho procession, which proceeded to move as soon ..? he had closed. AV'liat is Kitro-Glj cerine ? The terrible catastrophe at Aspinwall, resulting from the presence of nitro-glyeerine, as well as the previous explosion in San Francisco, chronicled in the Jut'i-itfrf, attributed to the same cause, and the explosion of a boarding house in Greenwich street, in Xew York, about two months since, also occa sioned by this same dangerous compound, litis led to the inquiry which heads this article. Galigna ni's Messenger furnishes the following answer to the question : Glycerine is the sweet principle of oil, and is extensively used ior purposes of the toilet ; but it has now received an application ol 'rather an un expected nature. In 1817 a pupil of M. Pelouze's, M. Sobrcro, discovered that glycerine when treat ed with nitric acid, was converted into a highly explosive substance, which he called nitro-glycer-ine. It is oil-, heavier than water, soluble in al cohol and ether, and acts so powerfully on the nervous system that a single drop placed on the top of the tongue w ill cause a violent headache, which will last for several hours. This liquid seems to have been almost forgotten by chemists, and it is only now that M. Nable, a Sweedish engineer, has succeeded in applying it to a v ery important branch of his art namely, blasting. From a paper addressed by him to the Academy of Sciences, we learn that tho chief ad vantage which this .substance, composed of one part of glycerine and three parts of nitric acid, possesses, is that it requires a much smaller hole or chamber than gunpowder does, the strength of the latter being scarcely one tenth of tho former. Hence the miners work, which, according to the hardness of the rock represents some five to twen ty times the power-of the gunpowder used, is so short that the cost of blasting is often reduced to fifty per cent. The process is very easy. If the chamber of the mine presents risnres, it must be lined with clay to make it water tight ; this done, the nitro glycerine is poured in, the water after it, which, being the lighter liquid, remained at the top. A slowr match, with a well charged percussion cap at one end, is then introduced into the nitro glycerine. The mine may then bo sprung by lighting the match, there being no need of tamping. On the 7th June last, three experiments were made with this new com pound in the open part of the tin mines of Alten berg, in Saxony. In one of these a chamber of thirty-four millemetres in diamater was made per pendicularly in a dolomitic rock, sixty feet in length, and at a distance of fourteen feet from its extremity, which was verticttl. At a depth of eight feet a vault filled with clay was found, in consequence of which the bottom of the hole was tamped, having a depth of seven feet. One litre and a half of nitro glycerine was then poured in ; it occupied five feet ; a match and a stopper were then applied, as stated, and the mine sprung. The effect was so enormous as to make a fissure fifty feet iu length, and another twenty feet. The three evidences given us within so short a time of the dangerous character of this substance will, doubtless, lead to the enactment of a law pro ven ting its transportation by water routes, whore an explosion perils the safety of every one on board the vessel containing nitro-glyccrine as a part of its cargo. Till: AIUAL.L.lXO DISASTEIt AT ASPIKAVALI,. Frightful Sacrifice of Life ami Property Explo sion of seventy Cases of JVitro-Hlycerinc. By the arrival of the steamship Arizona, from Aspinwall, at Yew York on Friday, we have addi tional particulars of the appalling disaster at the former place on the morning of the 3rd inst., w hereby the steamship European was totally lost, CO lives lost, and$l,0(JO,000 in property destroyed. All caused by the explosion of nitro-glycerine. The Panama papers furnish the following account: The European arrived at Aspinwull on the morn ing of the 2a instant, and on the afternoon of the same day came alongside the Railroad Company's whar , generally used by this line, and commenced discharging her cargo. Nearly, if not all the local freight "had been delivered, when about 7 o'clock on tho morning of the 3rd, a terrific explosion occurred on board, which tore away the upper parts of the ship and blew several large plates off the side. The wharf at which the vessel was un loading, and which was some 100 feet long, was literally torn to pieces. The superstructure was completely demolished to within a hundred feet of the freight house, and hardly a plank remained in the entire length of the structure, that was not wrenched from its fastenings. Immediately in front of w here the vessel lay a gap was cut through the wharf, piles, planking, etc., all disappearing. Tho ship and wharf both caught fire, and the latter was saved from entire destruction by the ex ertions of several citizen, who got the fire engine to work, and after a few hours extinguished the ilames, regardless of the risk they incurred from another explosion of the burning ship. The T. B. 11. Co.'s splendid freight house i3 left a pile of ruins. The force of air caused by the concussion sceni3 to have raised the roof, which wnsconsruct cd of iron and slate, upwards a few feet, its own weight bringing it down with immense forco into thelmilding, and carrying with it both the end walls, leaving the house, excepting the side walls, which appear but little, if at all injured, a mass of ruins. It would be difficult to imagine a more complete wreck than that presented by the freight house and wharf. Scarcely a building in the place "escaped without more or less damage, those of a substantial nature suiiering most: nearly all the brick and stone buildings were badly injured, but the freight house is the only one we have heard of beingjren dered uninhabitable. Hardly a whole window of glass remains in the city, and the destruction of glassware, crockery and such like is really won derful. Although many vessels were lying in close proximity to the European at the time of the dis aster none exceptine the Caribbean, of the same line, sustained any serious damage. The last named vessel was moored at the-opposite -side of the wharf from the European, and received very Her hull externally appears un- 'touched, but tliQ effect of tho concussion inter nally was very severe. We are assured that some immense iron rnrdprn nonrl-u'" trrfdro i'nliM rloan - T . V w .uw..kl . .IVjl. I J : 11-AVr, c-. 1 iY 1-M .. - " i it.Il. 1 I nc onajjt.-ci un mm U pipe stem, imruien oi ner frames were broken, and knees and Li-aces of the heaviest timber were torn from their places. The strain upon the ship must have been of immense force, and nothing but the superior build and structure of the vessel saved her from being knocked to pieces. All of her boats, ai d in fact everything of a fragile nature, were rendered useless. .. , - The most awful part of the catastrophe was the dreadful loss of life and suffering attending it. Of the number killed and missing it is impossible to give a correct estimate, but from the m-esent data the number may safely.be put down at fifty, and is, we fear, more likeiv to nrove over this number than under it. Of the 41 men comprising the crew of the European, 9 have been killed and 12 are missincr. Two clerks eneaered on the wharf were both instantly killed, and of 13 native Jamai- cians employed on the wharf, and in the freight house, none are supposed to have been saved : be sides it is believed a small gang of native laborers who had gone on board the unfortunate steamer have met the fate of the others. It will be several day before a correct estimate can be made of the loss. Manv bodies no doubt were, thrown intn the water and picked up bv sharks, whilst others are still buried beneath the ruins of the freight house and wharf, or went down with the ill-fated ship. Tlie scene in Aspinwall after the first ex plosion cannot be described it was harrowing in the extreme. Whilst the ruins gave an air of desolation to the place the mangled and lacerated bodies or pieces of bodies to be met within every direction for a great distance around tho ruin of the disaster were heart rendering, and the suffer ing of the poor mortals crushed and bruished, in whom life was extinct, was really dreadful. x eais ueing entertained that a second explosion would occur, and as the cause of the disaster was 1? 1 , -i . " , . . still unknown, and none of the officers or crew of the ship were left who could give any explanation of its cause, it was thought best to have the burn ing ship towed into the stream. The royal mail steamship Tamar, Capt. Moir, which had arrived the evening previous, immediately got up steam and prepared to tow out the burning ship, but be fore this could be accomplished another explosion took pUtcet though not of sufficient forco to cause any injury. It was supposed to be the magazine, which contained a small quantity of powder for ships use. The Tamar then made fast to the burning hulk and towed her out. The two vessels had barely reached the opposite side of the bay when another explosioti, more terrible than the first, occurred, but fortunately, the ship being far from the city and in deep water no harm resulted. The last explosion is supposed to have broken up the hull, as in less than half an hour after it occurred the unfortunate ship went down. Tho top of her smokestack is the only part now visible. The total number of killed and missing will ex ceed fifty, while there is tdso a large number of wounded. The amount of damage caused by tho explosion is roughly estimated at $1,000,000, which is about the low est figure at which it can be placed. Utiles for the Redemption of Mutilated Currency. For tlic benefit of ull "who may have on their bands worn or mutilated notes of the United States currency, v. e give in brief the rules regulating the redemption of the same. Mutilated notes and fragments will be redeemed only at tho Treasury of the United States at "Wash ington. Thev should be forwarded to the "Treas urer of the United States, Washington, D. C," with the name of the owner, the names of his oi lier postqffice and 'State, and the nominal value of the amount remitted -plainly written. A draft on the Assistant Treasurer at New York for the amount allowed, returned by mail to the address of the person remitting is the customary method of payment. Notes presented for redemption, of which the abrasion or loss of substance from the corners or edges does not exceed one-twentieth of their ori ginal proportions, will be redeemed as entire notes. Fragments of notes will not be redeemed in fall, except when proof is adduced by affidavit that the missing parts of such notes have been to tally destroyed. Tlie character of the affiant must be certified to be good by a magistrate or other public officer. In the absence of such affidavit, payments of notes exceeding by measurement more than one-half their original surface will be redeemed in their proportion to the whole note, reckoning, as a general rule, by twentieths. Mutilated notes which have been torn, no mat ter how much, but of which all the fragments are returned or defaced, no matter how badly, but are certainly genuine will be redeemed at their full value on presentation. Fragments of notes for which less than the full value has been paid, will be retained six months, to enable owners to re turn to the Treasury missing parts of such notes, and receive tho amount previously withheld. The above rules are applicable" to legal tender elemand notes and interest bearing notes. Muti lated fractional currency will be redeemed at tho Treasury at Washington, under the following reg ulations: Fragments of a note will not be redeemed un less it shall be clearly evident that they constitute one-half or more of one original note ; in which case a note, however mutilated, will be redeemed in proportion to the whole note, reckoning by lifths, except three cent notes, which will be reck oned by thirds. Mutilations less than one-tenth will be disregarded, unless fraudulent ; but any mutilation which destroys more than one-tenth the original note, will reduce the redemption value of the note by one-fifth its face value ; or if a three cent note, by one-third its value. Fragments of a three cent note will not be redeemed unless they constitute fully two-thirds of the note in its ori ginal form. Mutilated notes presented for redemp tion must not be in sums less than three dollars of their original value. All fractional currency not mutilated, when pre sented for redemption to an Assistant Treasurer or designated Depository of the United States, must havo been assorted by the holder accor ding to denominations, with the faces and upper sides in corresponding order in the pack ages. Fach of the three kinds of fractional cur- j rency should be assorted by holders, each kind by itself. When presented in sufficient numbers, each package must contain one hundred pieces of ! the samo denomination, and on the strap enclosing j each must bo written in ink the number of pieces, i denomination, and the name of the owner ; and j on the wrapper of tho package must be endorsed with ink the amount contained, and tho name and residence of the owner. No less than three dol lars will be redeemed. When spurious notes of any denomination are presented for redemption they will be stamped "counterfeit."

Dr. Hanelwas bom and reared in New Hamper Count v, and few men have lived so long and so well. Ho was a'n exemplary Christian and had been a member of the Pres byterian Church for forty years, and his example of sin cere piety was felt by all around him. He was a man of excellent character and had much influence for good. With a mind naturally strong, and views enlarged by cul tivation, aud more thau orehnarv intercourse witii men. he justly occupied a prominent position, and his sound and conservative, opinions upon ail questions e.ertett u salu tary influence upon the community in which ho lived These qualities secured him the respect of all who knew him, and his lino social disposition and great hospitaiitv, addetl to a generous heart mid noble character, made liiin an object of affectionate regard with his acquaintances Altogether he was a man of such purity f cnara:tcr, such honesty of purpose, and such kinoncss o? disposition, that his like is not often seen ; and though he had passed, the allotted period of men's lives, his loss is 3orelv felt by a numerous circle of friends, hi tlie r.vnily e;i"lc and around his own hearthstone, where his fine qualities shone with their purest and softest lustre, no words can meas ure the sad bereavement of those who called him husband and father. Truly an excellent man hi.s been taken from among the living, but the hope of the Cnvistiun illumined tho path of his life, aud its end was but; the beginning of his joy.
