THE PROPOSED IMPEACHSENT The Newburyport Herald thus corn tnents upon the proposed impeachment of President Johnson: Now to our minds the proposition of impeachment is one so full of danger that he who fathers it must be shortiiig,lited or'. terribly depraved. There is not a ration al man in ' the cbuntry tilat, does not see that it carries upon its very face the com mencement of a civil war, by the side of which the late rebellion would appear as 'child's- play; liefore any one accus toms his mind to wander too far in that direction, let him inquire if he Vprepar ed for a state of 'anarchy that itrould de stroy the value of property, that would repudiate national and private debts to gether, that would darken the sun of re publican liberty, that this country would not see its face again, and. would make human blood run in the streets till the very-dogs would rap it like water. If any man4if fighting age favors the deposing of the President in the present state of the country, let him join a military coin :ll:my at once, and drill as often as he eats; and if he is not at that age, but has boys that are, let him call than to him on the first opportunity, and looking them fair ly in the face, decide which of them, or how many, he is ready to see die rather than have Andrew Johnson President of the United States till the 4th of March, 1889? It is time this insanity ceased.' If we are not ail crazy, or drunk, or mad, we shall tell all men of all parties, who pro pose such schemes, away, deNts, we'll none of yeu. We want no more war—no more slaying of the first born—no more maimed men, or disconsolate widows or orphan children, upon our pension list. IN e want no more public debt and no higher taxes than we now have. We want no President who would put State against State and man against man in deadly array, by ignoring the representa tives of the people; and ye want no rep resentatives SO lost to r on, right, and public duty, as to prop the deposition df the President. The times are full enough of danger without any such mad ness.

They haVe failed to hear the mutterings of the rising storm, and have blindly followed .the impulses of passion and prejudice, as they did in the election of Abraham Lincoln. They ivere warned in 1860 against placing a sectional party in power; they were told that in doing so they would involve the country in a war which woul i d shake the government to its foundattons; would drench the land in' fraternal blood, Would entail upon us a debt the surdch of w hich would be felt to the latest generation, and would end ihtiltimate,and perpetual dis union. Our words ofselemn warning and earnest entreaty were laughed to scorn. Sectional fanaticism was Inaugurated in power at Washington, and (lurin g the dreary years of blood and sorrow which followed, the people began to realize, when, alas, it was too lute, that there was truth in what we had told them. We tell them now that the day is not far dispi4t syben tholie of the Republican party who really love their countty, will deeply regret the votes they gave in the late election, and will see what dupes they have been in the hands of the de signing demagogues whoie lead they have so blindly followed.

It is a God-forsaken !wk.—Exchange. Gen. Blair, It is well known, was a distinguished officer of the army during the entire rebellion ; he was Sherman's right-hand man in his march from At- 1 'ante to the sea. Aud now when the war is over and peace restored, this same Gen eral Blair is stoned when he attempts to - ; make a speech in a town of his own State in defense of the Constitution and the! Union ! And who are the men who committed this great indignity, this infamous outrage upon Gen. Blair?— They are the same unprincipled political charlatans who, -for the last quarter of a century, have been prating about "free speech and a free. press." They are the same men who for many years previous to the breaking out of the rebellion, sent petitions to Congress praying for a disso lution of the Union, because, as they said, they did not wish to live in a country ; where free speech was abridged. Because they could, not go down .South and make Incendiary speeches and urge the slaves ; to cut their masters' throats, they wanted the Union dissolved! But now. these I i sticklers for free speech stone a brave sol- I dier when he attempts to speak for his country; aye, more, they iusult the Pres- I ident of the United States himself when 'he speaks for the flag of the nation.—; When, in the history . of our country, was I free speech so ruthlessly assailed as at present? No nian is safe from insult 'in • strong Radical districts. Free speech is f.tlenied to all who reiiise to Clidorse negro suffrage and, negro equality.—Carlisle Volunteer. ENORMOUS FRAUDS. AU our Democratic exchanges from the nerthern tier of counties change that the most enormous frauds were committed in that section,of the State at the recent election. Thousands of voters were colonized from New York and distributed throughout the strong Radical election districts, where they were allowed to vote in spite of protestations and objections. Multitudes of these men have already left and gone back to New York to vote for Fenton and Radical Congressmen there. All over the State the evidences of frauds are being made manifest. Nei ther. Cake nor Covode could have been elected except by the colonization of vo ters. Yet, in the face of all these things, the Radicals have the impudence to as sert that frauds were perpetrated by the Democratic party. That is an old game. It is the rogue's cry of "stop thief!' But it will not avail. The damning evidence ' of Radical infamy is too plain to be thus covered up.—Lancaster Intelligencer. HOW TILE ILiDICALS ELECTED THEIR CONGHEVIIMEN. Many of our readers who are not in the habit of paying particular attent ion to the figures to be found in ari election return I will marvel at the apparent endorsement by the people of such Congressmen as O'- Neill, Kelley and Myers ; but a little ex amination affords a perfect explanation of the affair. We stated for several days pre vions to the election that the Radicals , were colonizing voters extensively into the doubtful districts, and here is the proof of the fact. In 1865 the vote cast in the , F ir it'Congressional District ,was 23,501; on Tuesday lust it was 20,581, showing a decrease of 3,923 votes. No candid man ; will allege that there is any fulling off of t population in that district, and all agree that the entire vote on both sides was brought out all over the city. Where then did this vote go Ur? Mr. Randall's majority on a poll of less than twenty thousand is 4,683, whilst in 1865,1 n a poll , three thousand five hundred and four greater, the majority in his district was but 2,423. These facts show clearly that a large portion of the vote of the district was transferred I , and that the transferred vote was altogether Radical. Let us see what' became of it. In 1865 there were 18,601 votes cast in the Second Congressional I District, and on that small poll Mr. o'-1 Neill's part had a majority of over 4,000. On Tuesday last there were 21,184 votes j given, and In this large poll the same gentlerrian's majority was but 3,324.1 Two facts are shown in both these cases; first, that Randall, with a smaller vote cast, was more largely ender sed than ever before, and that O'Neill, with a poll over 1,500 greater, was endorsed by a majori ty of 1,500 less than In 186.5. The Radi cal Congress, therefore, is not endorsed in this ease. But let us look at the Third District. In 1865 the vote polled was 20,930; on Tuesday last It was 23,951, an Increase oft 8,021. In 1865 Mr. Myers' party had a! majority of 1,658, on Tuesday he was re- j elected by a majority of 1,085 ; thus show ing that if there had not been three thou- I sand votes colonized into his district he! would have been badly beaten, and that with the colonization his conduct is ap- ' proved by nearly five hundred less than he was In 18(1,5. Now let us take the Fourth District. In 1805 there were 22,- 2t.V3 votes cast in that District; on Tues day there were 26;601 votes polled. In 1865 Mr. Kelley's party bad a majority of 4,958, but on Tuesday the champion ofj negro suffrage was re-elected by a majori ty of 2,448, Xelley, therefore, is absolute ly condemned by the legal vote of his dis trict. There is no doubt about the system of colonization adopted and pursued by, the Radicals, and it is perfectly , clear to every man who will examine the subject carefully, that their candidates for Con- , gress are all returned as elected through ; the operationofa huge fraud.

'ln Ohio the Disunionists elect 10 members of Congress, in a total poll of 275,000 votes, and the Democrats 3 on a total poll of 235,000 voter.' It will be seen that, according to the rascally apportion ment ofdistriets, it takes only 17,000 votes to elect a Disunion member, while It re quires 73,000 votes to elect a Democrat.

There IMA been some surprise eXpressed that the Disunionists should have been able to Burry this District without the aid of the army vote and the hospitals which they used so effectively in 1364. Since the election we have learned some thing that we did not know before, which makes it very clear how Taylor was elec ted: With this knowledge in our pos- Illession, we are now surprised that.we did so well. The District was carried by MONTY, and not because the principles of the Torch and Turpentine party meet favor with the people. We were in Phil adelphia last Thursday, when we were informed that a week before the election, a Disunion Governor of New England sent his cheek for fifty-fire thousand dol lars, drawn in favor of au officer of the Union League, to be used in our district. The check was cashed by the First Na tional Bank, and - twenty 7 threr thousand dollars were placed in the 'hands of a person in Germantown, to be sent into this county. This money was brought into Bucks and used to corrupt the elec tors. This explains the abundance of money seen at the polls in the hands of the Disunionists, and also their greatly inereased vote in the county and District. This information erns imparted to us by a reliable person, who holds himself responsible for what he says, and if any of the Disuniouists or others wish to know who the parties to this transaction were, they can have them by calling upon us. —Doylestown Democrat.

The people arc just about equally divided on the great questions of the day. There is nosuch preponderened in the votes of either party as to indicate any great and lasting majority. It 'sone of the most marvelous things in history that for so long a time, from election to' electinn,inthe midst of the utmost ex- , citement, througli . war, and peace follow ing war, the votes of the immense gov erning population of the Northern States should remain just about equally divided on the grandest questions ever submitted to the decision of a people. Here are les sons for the world to learn in this state of afiltirs. There are also lessons for the country to learn. It is plain enough that the majority of the eitiwns of the United States arc opposed to the course taken by Confirm, and in .fa roe of the policy of the 'President. Half thapeople of the North and all the people of the South arc agreed to this.. On the other hand, it is p!ain that theminorgy of the people, and a very decided minoeity at that, now rule, and will contiliw, to rule the country. It is not a rule of the majon4 ty under which the inhabitants of the United States are to live. Another filet is plain and ought to be distinctly seen and recognized henceforth. Neither the Republican nor the Demo cratic party is dead. * The tiemocratie party is no more dead than the Republican, The tires of afflic tion have only warmed it, and the blows of successive defeat have only welded it ' into a more compact. mass. It polls its huge vote, just as heretofore, gaining some in one place, losing some in another, but always the same old party. It is ar ran/ nonsense, in the face of such an eke lion as this in Pennsylvania,' where Mr. Clymer polls one-half. the immense vote of the state: it is arrant nonsense, we say, for any man, looking at such a fact, to talk of the Democratic party as dead. * * As It ta, the fate of .the nation Is to de-. pend - on the future action of these two political parties. They stand face to face just about even in numbers. They are fiercely opposed to each other. They are bent on directly opposite purposes. They are equally determined in their claim of patriotism. If the party it: power attempt the revolutionary measures which have been threatened, the ether party will un questionably stand bythe M/s/station and the kites. /erne Boston Journal, a Radical pa per of the pronounced type, has the can dor to Say in a recent issue: it will not escape the general attention now that the smoke of the recent election battles is over, that 'there has been no great change in the strength of parties at the North'for the last six or seven years. There is the Republican party on one side and there is the Democratic party on the other—neither having died out, accord ing to frequent predictions, nor been set aside by any overwhelming popular up riging. This view of the matter may not be very exhilarating. to Republicans of ardent temperament.

Un der ordinary circumstances, he would have been elected by at least sflmajority. But money and misrepresentation carried the day, and no man could hive resisted, with success, these potent influences. Our opponents sometimes make flings at the suppo‘ced ignorance of foreign-born citizens; but what is to be said of 016 gross mental blindness of a class of men in their own ranks who never vote except when they are frightened to the election by such silly stories as that the Demo crats intend to reinuliab- the Federal debt and assume the (HU of the late Southern confederacy ! ! At least 1,000 of these beautiful specimens of "Radical" intelli gence, who havn't voted for years, were brought out to vote against Mr. Sharpe, by this "cock and bull story", invented for the occasion. When they find out how they have been fooled they will feel a good deal worse than the men they helped to defeat. We hop; they can sleep without dreaming about losing their U. S. Bonds.—Bedford Ga.v tic. During the war the Radicals said that the administration_was "the govern ment," and denounced as a traitor every man who attempted in any way to criti cise its acts. No honest expression of opinion adverse to their peculiar notions was tolerated, and all who indulged in such antagonisms were held IL4 sympathi zers with the rebellion and deemed by these precious patriots as unworthy of association with th e unconditional loyal ists of the day. But now they have changed all that. They not only abuse and assail the administration, but claim great credit for the exercise of their won derful talents in that line of business.— Their."loyalty" now consists In endeav oring to weaken "the government," and! they oven threaten to Impeach the Exec utive because he will not bow down and worship the idol they have set up!—Age.i Married.
