The Tribune on "Grammar."
We have had a few tilts with our pol
ished nnd grammatical friend of the
Johnstown Tribune during the last month.
In hi? issue of May 8th the editor beats a
retreat, leaving us in possession of the
field retreating:, however, under a very
heavy assumption of dignity.
After denying that John Hickman, a
Uadical, nominated and elected by the
Republicans of Chester as a Republican,
i a Republican "in good standing," our
friend gets off the following :
"Our good nature and pleasiug way of
paying tiling, a. hied to cur superior knowl
edge of grammar and rhetoric, stemi (?) to
Lave worried our friend of the Freeman."
Ilare'a richness for you I In the very
sentenca in which the TrUunt editor boasts
of his "superior knowledge of grammar"
he violates not only purity of expression,
but the plainest rule of English Grammar.
And yet, the creature would lecture us
on Grammar 1 Solomon says, 'Seeat
tho a man wise in his own conceit T
There is more hope of a fool than of him."
But enough I We have shown that
tho Radical party is a proscriptive party,
and has proscribed citizens "on account
of race, and religion, and color" and tho
Tribune does not attempt to gainsay it.
The Ymte on Impeachment.
It appears from tho proceedings in the
Senate on Saturday last that the only vote
taken was on tire eleventh article of im
peachment. This is known as the Stevens
article, having been prepared by that
nrch demagogue himself. The vote was
taken on that article first, because it was
supposed by tho enemies of the President
that more votes could be secured for it
than for any one of the other ten articles,
and Wecauae they believed that conviction
on VmI article waa certain. The vote on
tho eleventh article stood as follows :
Guilty, 35 Not Guilty, 19. Like Mer
catios' wound, this, ahhouh net as deep
as a well nor a wide as a barn door, is
enough.
After having taken this vot3 the Senate,
aa a Court of Impeachment, adjourned
until next Tuesday, when a vote will be
taken on the remaining articles. It is not
pretended, however, by the Radicals them
selves that tho President will be convicted
on either of them, their main chance for
conviction having been placed on the elev
enth article. This Laving failed, the re
maining articles will share the same fate.
The following aro the names of the seven
K'puUicsm8 who voted with the Demo
crats for acquittal: Fessenden of Maine,
Fowler of Terxessee, Grimes of Iowa,
Henderson of Missouri, Ross of Kan sap,
Trumbull of Illinoi., and Van Winkle of
West Virginia.
Tlio I'rcsltleiil Acquitted.
When the eleven articles of impeachment
were adopted by tho Radicals in Congress
the new?p;pcr press of that prty set up
ik concerted and systematic howl for the
President's conviction. It was a matter
of small concern to them that each Sen
Ator bad taken a solemn, oath to decide
the case according to the evidence, and
to do impturial justice. In the judgment
of thes intensely loyal editors tho Senate
was organized only to convict, and the d?po
sition of the President with rail road speed,
to use an expression of Benjamin F. But
ler, was dcmund.Ml at their hands. It
was not a question of guilt or innocence
under tho Constitution and tho laws, but
merely a formal proceeding to register the
decree of a set of Radical demagogues in
the House of Representatives who ride on
the wkirlwiud and direct the storm. The
Radical argument is and has been that
Andrew Johnson has been an obstruction
in the path of Radical legislation and pro
gress, and that the interests of the party
required his removal. This allegation
will not bear the test of scrutiny. Ever
since Mr. Johnson succeeded to the Pres
idential ofUce he has been confronted by
a Radical majority tf two-thirds, both in
!he Senate and House of Representatives.
That majority, under the despotic leader
ship of Stevens and his associates', has
pass-id over the President's veto all their
favorite and charished schemes to despoil
rhe intellijwnt white men of the South of
-11 political power ond oonflr it oa igno
rant and uncultivated negroes. The aim
.f tho present and preceding Congress has
een to usurp all the other powers of the
( jvernmcnt und to strip the President of
ill his Constitutional authority. In this
-hey have succeeded to such an extent as
to degrade ihe-vffice of President to one
of intra form and not of substance. To
remove Mr. Johnson, thus shorn of near
ly all his power, wan the object of the kii
pcachruent trial. Bj::jamin F. Wade was
Kiir-eraor, every thing was to be
- " nd the
political milleniurii was speedily to be
ushered in. But iu the language of the
Scotch poet :
"The plans of mice and men
Gang aft aglee."
The Senate, after mature deliberation,
and having a proper regard for their oaths
and the testimony, have rendered judg
ment against the impeachers, and have
declared by their verdict that Andrew
Johnson is not gttilty of the high crimes
and misdemeanors with which he 9tood
charged. This result, righteous in itself,
is due to the firmness and integrity of seven
Republican Senators who could not be in
timidated from a conscientious discharge
of their duty by Radical threats and de
nunciations. To assert that such men as
Fbssknden, of Maine, Tkujidull, of
Illinois, and Henderson, of Missouri,
were iufluencd by any other than pure
and patriotic motives in voting for the
acquittal of the President is a foul and
malicious libel on their fair names and
unsullied reputations. And yet the
charge of bribery and corruption is openly
made against those Senators and their Re
publican associates by the Radical press.
Duty, conscientiously and fearlessly per
formed, is a perfect shield of protection
against all these poisoned arrows of baffled
and defeated malignity. Loyal League
societies may fume and fret and denounce
the Grand Army of the Republic may
resolve and re-resolve that these men
were corrupt, and that each one bad his
price, but the intelligent masses of the
people will not so regard them.
When the excitement and political bit
terness which have grown out of impeach
ment trial shall have passed away, and
when the base and unworthy motives of
the desperate and unscrupulous men who
instigated it can bo viewed without preju
dice and through the clear, calm light of
reason and justice, their motives will be
vindicated and their names honored and
respected, while the memory of their de
famcrs will sink into merited oblivion and
contempt.
A Xew Way to Convict.
When it became manifest in the Sen
ate, on last Monday week, that at least
four Republican Senators intended to vote
for the acquittal of the President the
Radicals resorted to their usual ba3e ex
pedients to avert the impending blow.
Among the number was Mr. Henderson,
of Missouri, upon whom the Radical
members of Congress from that State
called and modestly asked him to resign
in order that the Governor of the State
might appoint as h'i3 successor some one
who would hasten to Washington and
vote for conviction. That Buch a base
and scandalous proposition conld be made
at all only furnishes additional evidence
of the utter rottenness of the Radical
party. If Mr. Henderson had yielded to
this infamous demand his successor would
have voted to convict the President, ab
though he had not heard one word of the
evidence. But Mr. Henderson, like ac
honest man, indignantly spurned the pro
position. John W. Forney, however, whose
bareness is always equal to any political
emergency, hit upon a more novel and
yet more disgraceful expedient to con
summate the Radical plot against the
President.
There are now at Washington two men
who claim to have been elected United
States Senators from the reconstructed
State of Arkansas. They were doubtless
understrappers of the Fieedmen's Bureau
in that State, one of them hailing from
Pennsylvania and the other from New
York. Forney proposed and even urged
through the columns of The Press that the
Senate should at once admit these two
carpet-bagger3 to their seats in that body,
and thus render tho conviction of the
President a fixed fact. Could any man
who was not born a scoundrel conceive a
proposition more supremely infamous than
that? Nothing but itself can be its par
allel, and its mere mention can only ex
cite a feeling of shame and indignation.
It was worthy of the "Dead Duck" and
of the author of the Jamieson letter.
A man is on trial before a Court and
jury for a high criminal offence. It is
ascertained that tn are for conviction aud
two are for acquittal. Tbe.-e two are
withdrawn from the jury and their places
supplied by tw substitutes tvho are known
to bo hostile to the prisoner, and a verdict
of guilty is rendered. Would not such a
proceeding shock the moral sense of any
civilized and law-abiding community ?
And yet this is precisely what Forney
wanted the Senate to do, and if it had
been done we suppose the Radicals would
have defended tho outrage upon the
ground of partg necessity.
With the failure of impeachment a
great many shrewd political combinations
have suddenly vanished into thin air. Of
course President Wade had all his Cabi
net officers selected several foreign mis
sions now vacant were to be filled by his
special friends and admirers bright vis
ions of fat collectorships and profitable
post offices flitted before the heated im
aginations of scores of hungry liadicals
Sheridan was to be reinstated at New
Orleans John Pope, the hero of defeats,
was again to make his headquarters at
Atlanta, and Sickcls was again to be
enthroned at Charleston. Such was the
bright and happy future of Radicalism;
but the stern and inflexible decree of the
Senate has dissipated all these pleasing
anticipations and turned the golden fruit
of Radicalism, like Dead Sea apples, to
ashes upon the lips. Andrew Johnson is
still President of the united States, and
may yet write several veto messages.
An expensively bound book of flofl
pages, and costing $37 a volume, has just
been issued at Wasnington. The total
edition has cost the Government one hun
dred thousand dollars. It contains nothing
but tho letters of condolence on the death
of Abraham Lincoln. Only a very, very
great nation can afford to throw money
--y in that manner.
RADICAL KULG.
That our readers may understand how
the Rump runs the machine of govern
ment in the Southern States, we clip the
following from the Pittsburgh Commercial,
a leading Radical paper :
General Grant's communication to the
Senate to-day encloses reports from the Dis
trict Commanders. General Schofie!d's re
port gives the whole number of voters
registered in Virginia as 225,933, of whom
120,111 are whites and 105,832 colored ; of
these 4,417 whites and 12,887 blacks
failed to vote on the question of calling a
couvention. Judging from the tax list and
other data, the number of whites who faihd
to register is 16,343. There is no report of
the number disfranchised in Virginia under
the reconstruction laws.
General Canby leports 106,721 white and
72,932 colored voters in North Carolina,
nearly al! of whom voted; It is estimated
that 19,477 whites aud 3,289 blacks failed
to register, and of these 1 1,680 whites are
dW-f ranch ised.
In South Carolina there are 4G.R8J white
and 80,550 black voters registered ; 10,992
whites and 4,167 blacks failed to register.
About seventy-five per cent, of the whites
are disfranchised.
In Georgia 96.333 white and 95,168 col
ored voters are registered, of whom 60,333
white and 24,758 colored failed to vote ;
iO.OOO whites are disfranchised, and.500
refused to register.
In Alabama there are 61,295 white and
104,518 black voters, of whom 37,158
white and 32,947 colored failed to vote.
There are no data to show the number dis
franchised. In Florida few are disfranchised and
nearly al! are registered and have voted.
Number of whites, 11,914 : blacks, 16,079.
General Gillem says no data have been
kept from which to ascertain the number of
voters of different colors in Mississippi. In
Arkansas 25,697 failed to vote.
General Iluuck reports that 45.218 whites
and 84,486 blacks were registered in Loui
siana ; of this number 50,480 failed to vote,
but what proportion the General is UDable
to saj nor can he report how many are dis
franchised. In Texas 55,633 whites and 49.497 colored
voters arc registered, of whom 1,757 whites
and 36,922 blacks voted. The Dumber dis
franchised cannot be ascertained.
The Registry Law. Legal steps are
about being taken to test the constitution
ality of the Registry act, passed by the
last Legislature. Mr, Chalfant, of the
House of Representatives, from Columbia
county, declares that the journal of the
Houso shows that the act as passed, con
tained but three Sections, while as printed
in the Legislative Record and in the
Pamphlet Laws, it contains twenty-one
Sections. He chargod in the House that
it had been tampered with after it was
passed, and asked that a committee of
investigation be ordered, which, however,
was refused by the Radical members.
The statement is a startling one, and
we are glad that it is going to be investigated-
The constitutionality of the law
will be tested at the same time. Its sole
object is to injure the Democratic erty,
by throwing obstacles in the way of tbe
exercise of the right of suffrage by the
poor men, the mass of whom are Demo
crats, and is in perfect consistency with
the Radical policy of restricting in every
way the influence of white men in the
control of our government, and extending
that of black men. Lancaster Intclb'genccr.
Important Canal Coxthact. It is
stated that an arrangement of much im
portance to the coal, iron and lumber
interests of Pennsylvania has been con
summated between the several canal lines
on the Susquehanna river and its branches,
embracing the Wyoming canal, the West
Branch and Susquehanna, ike Pennsylva
nia, and the Susquehanna and Tidewater
canals. These several companies, togeiher
owuing the whole system of canals drain
ing the great infeiior of the S;ate, and
connecting it with tidewater, have entered
into a contract which takes effect immedi
ately. By this contract they respective''
bind themselves to operate their canals as
one line on all through tonnage, -to pro
rata all through tolls, and to enlarge all
of their canals by the spring of 1871 to
six feet depth of water. It is estimated
that this arrangement will affect a reduc
tion of one-half on the vast tonnage of
anthracite and bituminous coal, lumber
and iron which annually seeks ti'e water
by these lines, and will at once create an
outlet for the coal of Pennsylvania, which
will enable it to command the New York
and Eastern markets, and thereby vastly
extend the business and tonnage of the
Susquehanna valley. Rikimore Sun.
More Fooi.hardixess. Cant. Thnm
as oarreu and Mr. I liender, Professor
ot Language in the University of Chic'ago,
will wake some morning and make them
selves ftmous if they should succeed in
crossing the Atlantic with their little
twenty-foot life-boat, which is to be as
iigin as u corn, water-light, and even air
tight, on occasion, and incapable of cap
sizing. Their adventure would renew the
daring of the first navigators of that ocean,
whose pinks and caravels were not much
more capacious than the proposed Chicago
craft. The captain, and his frien-1 the
philologer, will no doubt become as re
nowned as the courageous climber who
once got up to the dizzy summit of a stee
ple in honor of King James I. His ma
jesty shuddered at the sight, and cried out:
"Let that man have a patent for climbing
York steeple ; nobody else shall interfere
with him." The rest of mankind will
gladly allow those foolish Argonauts a
monopoly of their business.
Land is now selling in the South
from one to ten dollars the acre fine
cleared farming land. Why is it so cheap T
Because niggers won't work it. Because
they are supported by the Freed men's
Bureau, and because white men won't
emigrate to a land where they are denied
both law and justice, and where the nigger
is either their equal or theii- superior.

It is stated that John Brown, an

Chili, a few years ago, penniless, friend

trade to depend on, is now worth five

Some people in Hartford, Conn.,

Bogus reconstruction is flourishing
in the South like the green bay tree.
With half the white men disfranchised
and all the negroes voting twice, with
Mongrel candidates to count the ballots,
and shameless commandants to declare
results, it is not surprising that the late
"elections" have gone more or less heavily
in favor of so-called moral ideas and im
moral practices.
The New York Times says : "Our
stock of knowledge about Grant is con
stantly being enlarged from new and
lively sources," antl gives us an illustra
tion of Grant's idea of clams, which is
that they are 'gutta-percha oysters." So
now they have Grant's full stock of
knowledge, embracing "horses," "pups,"
and "clams" The Times evinces a
worthy pride in being the first to publish
what Grant says on cLims.
Mrs. Ernestina Pohl hung herself
at Dubuque, Iowa, on Tuesday. Some
neighbors going into her house found her
little children tugging aJt the dead wo
man's dress, as she hung from a nail, and
trying to make her speak to them. Her
baby was found unhurt, but covered up
under beds in such a manner as showed
that she intended to kill it. She was
poor and had become low spirited ia con
sequence of the failure of her efforts to
procure her first husband's bounty money
for their children.
A cute chap in the sleepy town of
Nodaway, Missouri, rigged up his whisky

natural whisky fountain, bursting forth
from between two rocks, looking like bran

and likely to realizs a fortune for the
