The Richmond Times says: We have seen in private circulation a caricature which, we think, is worthy of a wider fame. It represents Mr. Johnson standing on the threshold of the Constitution, his attitude and expression denoting extreme anxiety and perplexity. In the foreground are two figures—a big boy and a little one—representing respectively the North and the South. The larger urchin is vigorously pounding the smaller one, who is stretching his hands imploringly towards Mr. Johnson and the Constitution, and struggling violently to get to them. Mr. Johnson looks out upon the struggle and exclaims: 'Did anybody ever see the like! I sent that boy out to bring his little brother in out of the cold, and now see—the child wants to come back and the rascal won't let him! He is actually holding him out there and wallowing him in the mud and snow.'

Nice brother, that; he only wanted to blow up the Constitution, and send his big brother 'to grass.' Sweet youth—no wonder he 'stretches his hands imploringly to the President.' Didn't he show his attachment to the President by placing the torch to his home, and desolating his hearth? Hopeful child, it only lacks one element of success—it wants a little more 'cheek' to get on well.
