The Woes ot YKade.
The political sourows which have recently
gathered around "honest" Pen Wale are
calculated to excite for Lim a feeling of deep
commiseration. The Democratic party, at
the election in Ohio last fall, having carried
a msj r'ty of the memlers cf the Legislature,
elected Judge Thurman, an able and distin
guished member of tho party, tosucceed
Wade in tho United States Senate en the
4th of March text. "Wade then became a
candidate for nomination for Vice President
on the Radical ticket, with a fair show of
Kiircess. When tho Rump Congress com
rwncd the impeachment intngne it was to
be consummated by the removal of President
Johnson and the transfer of Wade from the
Sonate to the White House. In that event it
was not doubted but that he could dictate
bit own nomination at Chicago. Wade has
.-.hvays been heartily despised by the mod
el ate and correlative Republican Senators,
regard him as a blatant demagogue and
o dangerous man to be clothed with the
t .ers of a PreNedent. Even if the impeach-
I'.' t ot tte I rasident was j:sst m itself, Wade

rnittal of the President. Bat thi6 scheme

fortunately saved from such a calamity, and
j after the 4th of March next Benjamin F.
i Wade will retire to the shades of private life
in that intensely loyal region of Ohio, known
as the Western Reserve."
Andrew G. Curtln.
The failure cf the "War Governor" of
j Pennsylvania to receive tho nomination for
I Vice President atjChicago must le especially
j mortifying to him and hid friends. The
"Boys in Blue" in this State belonging to
the Radical party had gene to a great deal of
trouble in making political capital for him.
They held a State Conventionin his interest
during the winter in Philadelphia, and
formally nominated him for the office. The
Republican State Convention afterwards
instructed the delegates from tLis State to
support Lim at Chicago. It was reasonable,
therefore, to suppose, from all these de
inonstrations in his favor, that he would
have been quite a formidable candidate. But
the vote at Chicago shows that outtlde of
I his own State he had ho strength whatever,
! anJ that ho was withdrawn from the list of
candidates after the third ballot. His bit-
ter enemy, Simon Cameron, was on the
ground at Chicago, to do him all the damage
he possibly could, and this may account to
some extent at least for Curtin's poverty of
votes. But a man who, like Curtin when
J he was Governor of the Stale, would protn-
j ise to do one thing and then would do the
j very opposite, cannot expect to have many
j warm and devoted friends. Hence his fall
j at Chicago, and it may truly be said that
great was the fall thereof.

The .cgro in tlie Chicago ton-
ciimu.
The platform adopted by the Radicals at
Chicago, though full of glittering generali
ties, and, like iuuia rubber, capable of being
stretched in almost any conceivable direction,
wi I not commend itself to the people of the
United Statei. Regarding it as of prime
importance the Convention annuuced its
position on the negro question in the first
two resolutions. The party, and its nomi

vote to acquit the President, snrns up the
whole case in a few weighty words, which
will he remembered in his honor when the
story is told of the fate of the party which
dared to ask of itstdhcrcnts flagrant perjury
ia its interest. He said :
To depose the constitutional chief magis
trate of a great nation elected by the people,
on grounds bo slight, would, in my judgment!
le an abuse of the power conferred upon the
Senate, which could not be justified to the
couutry or the world. To construe such an
act as a high crime or misdemeanor within
the meaning of the Constitution would, when
the passions of tho hour lnve had time to
cool, be looked upon with wonder, if not
with derision. Worso than this, it would
inflict a wound upon the very structure of
our UovcrtimeLt, which time would fail to
cure.

Round and round and round the ring went

The people set up a great hont of laughter,
and on the pony ran ; but it all produced
no effect on the rider. Then the ring-master
made the monkey jump up on to Ulysses's

shoulders, and with his hands holding on to
