7AT2TESBCHQ. PESS'A. Wanoday,Maroh 4,'OB, LOO TO TOCB KXHT I Win. Walho, Chiirmw of the Democratic State Central Committee, sometime since issued a "private" cir cular to tho Democracy of the State enjoining them to adopt measures, and leave nothing undone, to secure the election of Democratic judges and in f pectora of elections in all doubtfulor jose t.wnehips. With characterisf' adroitness anvi energy, prompted by love of o!S bare and tho siUwea? 01 thcir nefarious schemes trt the eor'itry they rue drilling; marshalline dividing their forced for r.'lrPofic " carl7 iug out t injunction of the secret to" which reference has been mado.& Jit almost every township, in eluding the county-svat, they have a "secret," "midnight," "oath-bound," "Jsrk -lantern," organization, of w hich that inuerly, nomadic chnngeling, from party and place, "Bill Bite," is sail to be Grand Sachem. Iu mem bers are numbered, and divided into sjuida, each under the control of its sub-officer. Through this order, nominations for township offiocrs have already been made, aul tho voters eophcxhhat thoy hope and expjet to carry both inspectors in nearly every township, including some in which they have never claimed or obtained but ono. This is the secrt't of their frequent meetings of late and the hur ried visit? of their member of the House, at the command of Chief Wal lace, back to Givcne. This attempt to secure for the one party both inspec tors is a clear violation of the inten tion of the law ! As much so as for one political party to have both Jury Commissioners. I'.ut what cafe they f.r this ? Do ths Republicans in the townships desire to be unrepresented on the election boards ? To prevent this they must immediately organize, mike their nominations and get out their full strength on Friday, the 13th orMuroli. This must be done if we would not have our right to vote, our ballots and ballut-boxca, iu the present important crisis, entirely under the control of our unscrupulous political opponents. When the Legal Tender Act was first passed there was not a so-called Democrat in the country that did not denounce it as utterly unconstitutional. Now, their most cherished policy is tho i.uo of hundreds of millions of green- brinks more. During the administration of Abraham Lincoln they could find no epithets too cbgrading to cx prec their contempt of both the man and his policy. Now they pretend to support Andrew Johnson, because, for footh, he is but carrying out the policy of his predecessor. A fow days ago they taunted us with "why don't you impeach the Presi dent ?" "You dare not impeach him !" But now they meekly say, "He is your own coon, skin him if you like !'' 0, mom, 0, Tempora ! The Senator elect from Ohio, Judge Thurman, made a speech to a large serenading party. He said the present representative body in tho National Legislature was a mere fraction of the American people, and contended that until the eutire number of States were represented in Congress, such a thing as Republican form of Government was not legally declared. Not so 1 He ought to have said it contained but a mere fraction of the Democratic party representing the Tail, while the Head was in tho South unrepresented and where (thank fortune) they will remain so despite the will of their subordinates of the North.

THE J.ATIO.VH MIUII COIET. Wc give below from a contempora ry, a few facts which may bo new a;:d interesting to most of ourreadea: But it is asked, Why should not the Senate wait until the Supreme Court has passed upon the constitutionality of the law ? Wc answer, Because in all that pertains to imptaelimfiDt, the Senate, sitting as a High Quart peach men t,i$ 'the suprme"1nlmnal, and is clothed by the constitution with power Wch the authors of our Gov ernment dared not intrust the Supreme Court. The High Court of Impeach ment becomes a court to far above the Supreme Court in every required qual ity of constitutional power as well us of learning, political wisdom, aud dig nity, that the latter has no jurisdic tion of the subject matter, or of the parties, and least of all would its opin ions be any authority on the questions of law or of fact involved. It would be a contempt of this High Court of Impeachment, which would render the Judges of the Supreme Court themselves liable to impeachment and removal, wore th ,cy to interfere in ftnv T i . ' Impsachmsiit, arrwt, . manner w ith the conviction, or removal of President Johnson, or with tho decision of the questions of law or of fact on which his conviction depends. From the moment this High Court of Impcach- Kncnt is organized, it becomes, as to the particular case it has in hand, a wholly superior, and indeed, absolute ly supreme tribunal ; and w hatever the ordinary Supremo Court may think of the constitutionality of a law is of no more consequent.: to the High Court !of impeachment than would be the opinion of our Court of Common Pleas. All this Mr. Johnson must have well known when he, as his admirers claim took tho responsibility of disobeying the Tenure-of-Oflioe law. AX IXI'EACIIXEXT VIEW. The Now York 2W-unc, of Tuesday, contaius an elaborate and very able article in favor of impeaching Presi dent Johnson. The article is divided under four different heads, which en able tho reader to determine at a glance thedrift of its argument. The heads are as follows : "Impeachment is Peace." "Impeachment is Reconstruction." "Iinpcichment is the Supremacy of the Law." "Impeachment means the Suprema cy of Republican Institutions." An earnest argument is made by the Trihune in support of each of the f'oro- rrninT nrnniwit.inna. an llip fnllnivtnrr ? . " "Some ef our people may rave, and swear, and gnash their teeth : but we shall have no war no disturbance no arresting tho w heels of Government not the shimmer of a bayonet, nor the click of a trigger nothing but the ordi nary town constable, with his clumsy baton. There is something grand to us in this spectacle of a great cation chan'iug an incompetent ruler by the gentle and easy process of law. The poor little three per cent, that the gold-gamblers have made will melt like the falling snow. Impeachment is peace, because the common-sense and the lovaltv of the nation demand it." ' " THADDr.rS UTEVENS. At a large and enthusiastic meeting of the loyal citizens of New York City to endorse the impeachment proceed ings of Congress, the following was passed as orie of a series of resolutions: JicDolved, That while awarding do served praise to every member of the Honsa of Representatives who con tributed in any manner to this im peachment of an apostate and a trait or, thero is one who most especially is entitled to our gratitude and honor.

When the dishonored memory of Andrew Johnson shall stink m the nostrils sTthe people of this Republic in the ages to come, the honored name of Thaddeus Stcvcne, in every family that loves liberty and justice to all, shall be a household word. So far from Impeachment creating any serious revulsion in business it is generally claimed that after the first shock nnd the slight tremor attendant, everything has brightened up. Stocks are stiff, money seasonably close, trade and commerce unembarrassed. Peace is expected after thodisenlhronementof Andy Johnson and with peace pros perity. Let there be firmness and moderation with dispatch on the part of Congress, It is reported here that an enthusi astic Democrat telegraphed tho Presi dent, on receipt of the Impeachment news, and tendered him ono thousand patriotic "white boy?" to uphold his dynasty.

His tenders of promotion and com mand to prominent military officers like Sherman and Thomas, who have spurned his o tiers with such honest and patriotio contempt, and his over tures to minor ofheers to ascertain whether they would put their troops under his orders in defiance of those of Gen. Grant, all show that Johnson wanted, not to test the constitutinali- ty of tho law, but to get control of the army, or at least a considerable portion of it, to employ it in resistance to the measures of Congress and the orders of Gen.

How remarkable it is that after men have been throwing knives and forks at each other's heads all around the room, making every one more crazy than another, and raising such a dust that no one can see what tho question is, some grave man will quietly repeat a few principles all of them well es tablished and a few facts all of them well known nnd uncontested and the pother ends 1 Still I can't believe the pother will cud. There is a strong interest ngainst its ending; nnd as some men can reason admirably without legs, so other men can talk incessantly without heads. Which will get the final victory in a demo cracy I am as far from being able to say now as I was eighty years ago Still I am on tho side of Morton's law, antl always have been, and his facts I believe.

C, "The law is binding on me, Con stitution or not, until set aside by the proper tribunal." In that brief sen tence, one month ao, General Grant embodied the true theory of the Fed eral Constitution, ami the fundamen tal duty of patriotism. It was the groat truth which invigorated and sustained the Union arum from Fort Sumter to Appomatox,and which, as we thought, was sutliciently and -forever vindictetl in the closing victories of 'G'y. Submission to the constituted authority, acquiescence in all legally unacted laws, the right and the correc tive duty of appeal to the only consti tutional arbitrament of the judiciary, these plain, primary obligations of each good citizen were never more clearly conceived, or expressed with more plain and direct simplicity, than in those words of Gen. Grant. Had the South accepted that truth in 1861, there would have been no secession, no rebellion, no war, antl no necessity lor reconstruction. Had tho South last year, attempted cither by traitors in and out of office, or by tho terrible power for mischief which it has arain been able to wield through Andrew Johnson President by virtue of an assassination consented to receive this simple truth as its political guide the ten States would era this have re gained all their practical relations, re construction would hnve boon com plete in restoration and the union of thirtv-scven States once more bound together upon the broad and lusting basis nt .Liberty, Justice antl the con stitution as it is; would have entered upon the year 1868 standing before the world the freest, the most prosper ous, the most powerful! and the' most enduring Republic of all time.
