The Chicago ReptibliecnetwEs of For
ney's late letter to the Philadelpftt Press,
in which he tells the North to prepare to
invade Maryland :
"We not only deprecate, but we heart
ily and unqualifiedly denounce, as dan
gerous to the country and fatal to the Re
publican party, the language which Col
onel Forney writes front Baltimore."
The reply of the Republican. to this
open invitation of Forney's for the in
auguration of another civil war is as fol
lows:
"Pennsylvania and the North will re
ply that this Maryland quarrelmust be
adjusted according to law and without
any rebellion on the part of Union men.
If Governor Swann has the legal Tight to
remove the Commissioners,' let hum do
so. if he does, so froM corrupt reasons,
impeach him. If the President has the
lawful power, as he certainly has, to or
der troops into Maryland to sustain Gov
ernor Swann In any official acts which
Governor Swann Is permitted by the law
and the courts to do, let no loyal men of
Maryland fire on the Federal flag, for
they cease to be Union men when they
do so."
The Maryland Trouble.
The N. Y. Booning Post, (Radical,)
with truthful and patriotic good sense
speaks about the Maryland mischief. It
warns the Radicals that if they resist
Governor Swann by force of arms, the law
twill be against them, and public semi
went must condemn them. It says:
1 They [the Commissioners] argue upon
this that the power of removal "gives no
power to the Governor to try for official
misconduct, or to pronounce them guil
ty." This seems to us manifestly absurd;
• if it were the true meaning, then a major
ity of the Legislature would have the
right by the 'Constitution to keep the
Commissioners in office, even though
they had been judicially tried and found
guilty of official misconduct. It is of no
use to argue that the constitution Intends
that. ' It seems to us clear that the Pollee
; Commissioners are amenable to the Gov-'
ernor during the recess of the Legislatare,•
and as we have no doubt they have acted
properly and lawfully, we are sorry to
see them put themselves In the wrong.
Nor can we think well of the attitude of
the Republicans in Baltimore. They

On Saturday afte'noon a Conservative

the murder of Shaw, and acquitted by a
partisan jury, stepped from the hotel,
drew a revolver and began to fire on
them. Four of the Manchester party
were wounded, one it is supposed mortal
ly. Bell wus arrested and committed to
jail, but - the excitement was so great that
apprehensions were felt that the jail
would be broken into by the people and
the accused taken out and lynched.—
More moderate counsels, however, pre

THE STATES OF MR. STANTON.
The Washington correspondent of the
New York licrald says: The actual
facts regarding the rumored resignation !
of Secretary Stanton arc about as fel
lows :—He is now engaged in making '
out his report and as soon as it is finish
ed
he will undoubtedly retire. His re-1
signation has been precipitated by the I
discovery lately made that Mr; Stanton
has tilled nearly all the vacancies in the'
regular army without the knowledge or
assent of Mr. Johnson. He has been for !
some time making out the commissions
and forwarding them to the appointees,
with orders to them to report to lienetal
G rant for duty. General Grant supposing '
them, as appeared from the face of their
papers, duly appointed by the President,
has assigned them to duty and they are
now at service without the knowledge of;
the Pre. Went. On learning this fact, the
President, very angry, sent for Mr. Stan-I
ton, and demanded an explanation. The'
result was the retirement of Mr. Stanton
as soon as he could make out. his report,
on which he is now engaged.
The belief gains ground that General
Sherman is to succeed Mr. Stanton pro
rem. Hu cannot of course hold the oltice
and that of Lieutenant General at the
same time ; but at the request of General
Grant, who desires the hearty co-opera
tion of the war aloe In the work of re
organizing the army, Sherman will act
as Secretary of War.
ter Wendell Phillips, in a speech
made a few days ago, denounced, Gen.
Grant as a "traitor." He charged the
hero of Vicksburg and • Richmond with
the responsibility for the New Orleans
riot, and declared that "the most humilia
ting position on this continent was oe.
cupled by Gen. Grant." Such Is the re
spect entertained by the Radicals 'for the
Lieutenant General of the United States.

dent.' Among the most prominent and
able divines in attendance were Rev. Drs.
Jno. W. 'Nevin, Schaff', Gerhart, Zacha
rias, Bomberger an'd Sneck. The leading
topic before the Synod was the Revised
Liturgy, the discussion of which occupied
several days and displayed great research
and ability. By a vote of 64 to 14, the
Liturgy was referred to the General Syn
od, and its use authorized wherever de
sired until the subject shall .be definitely
disposed of. The Interests of the College
at Lancaster were discussed, and meas
ures inaugurated for an additional en
dowment. The Synod adjourned on

A REQI7IIOT.—Our current expenses are
heavy, and must be met With the cash.
To enable us to do Ulla at all times, it is
absolutely necessary that our patrons pay'
promptly. Many, no doubt, hardly ever
give themselves a thought about "the
printer's" needs, and when they do,
quickly dismiss it with the idea that "he
can get along anyhow." But Ois is all
wrong. He cannot in reason expected
to be able to pay the present high prices
for paper, labor, &c., without receiving
prompt pay for his work. This being so
self-evident, we hope that ALL who owe'
us will not delay in making settlements,
In order that we may be supplied with
the means to "square up" a number of
bills which accumulated on our hands
during the late campaign, from want of
time to attend to financial affairs. If
the money on our books were in our
pockets, we could do this at once, and
get along without "dunning" for some
I time to come. Let all who owe for sub
scription, job work, or advertising,' re
spend without delay.
Such as Intend paying for the Coltfr
- LER in wood, we have to urge that they
bring it soon—not after everybody else is
supplied. We need it now, as well as
other people.
I To our prompt-paying patrons we aga i n
return thanks, and trust that before
another month passes all will piece them.
