On the 12th of that month, Governor John- son reached Nashville, and the next evening he responded to a serenade, in an address, which he afterwards pub- lished as "An Appeal to the People of Tennessee. " Iq the course of this address he sketched the history of the Secession movement, and showed how the government of the commonwealth had been wrecked, for the time, by LIFE AND SERVICES OF ANDREW JOHNSON. 93 its leaders. He said that the Government of the United States could do no less than guar...antee Tennessee a Re- publican form of government, and that his work was to accomplish that purpose. He promised that the rights of the people should be respected, and their wrongs re- dressed ; that the loyal should be honored, and the erring and misguided should be welcomed on their return ; intelligent and conscious treason should be punished, but no merely vindictive or retaliatory policy should be adopted. This line of policy was carried out by Gov. Johnson, with excellent effect, and from a condition of anarchy, Tennessee again put on an aspect of quiet and comparative prosperity.
