DINPERATION. So desperate are the
impeachers that they, talk of making an
effort to admi the Arkansas Senators,
and with their votes convict the Presi
dent. If this outrage should be consum
mated, it would damn time Radical party
to hopeless perdition. No degree of par

them from the consequences- of so foul a
deed.

Radical papers cannot deny that ever :
since their parity. came into power the
greedy political adventurers of the coun
ty, who care nothing for principle, but
are actuated solely - by selfish motives,
have flocked to their ranks. With
maws unsatisfied and unsatisfiable, these
harpies are ever on the watch for plun
der, and seek to bend any and every
thing to their purpose—that in, to put
the public's money into their individual
pockets. The impeachment business
has whetted their appetites afresh.
Like buzzards, they scent the carrion In
the distance, and are making their cal
culations to pounce upon it—quite wil
ling, of course, that the honor and inter. ;
eets of the country may go by the boarff,
so that they make something oqt of the
wreck.
This Is not mere • "copperhead" as
tertian. We assure our Adams county
.Republicans, almost all of whom belong
to the Curtin wing, that there is high
authority in their own church for it.
The Harrisburg State Guard, their Cen
tral olgan, puts the point in a plain and
unmistakable shape, by saying:
Does Mr. Wade know what he is
about? Hos he fairly considered that
we have men in the Republican party
who have actuelly cultivated the notion,
until It has become a controlling pas
shin, that the Republican party was or
partied solely and only to put them into
-office, to fill their pockets with money,
and to afford. them opportunities to de
stroy honest Republicans who will not
approve of their crimes. Mr. Wade
surely does not understand what lie con
templates, or he has a contemptuous es
timate
of some of the would-be-Republi
can leaders of Pennsylvania and other
States, who are now really ravenous for
office. Every city in the Keystone State
has its Republican ring, in which all
the offices have been apportioned to fa,-
vorites. Hungry greeds are even now
lingering at the door of every fat poet
office, ready the moment Mr. Wade
goes Into the White House, to rush into
and take prossession of the place—to -as
sume the charge of a revenue office, to
gain , opportunities to indulge in whisky
frauds, and manage the entire patronage
of the Uovernment in their own Inter
est. All this is now "set up." In Har
risburg the offices are apportioned
among the riner,Ate fat places all filled.
in anticipation, as if Mr. Wade were to
be a mere automaton, and the Republi
can massesjuat err many tools to be used
by the demagogues who have no more
purpose in professing Republicanism
than that of seeking opportunities to
pluminr the public purse. It is to. be
seen whether Mr. Wade will allow him
self to be controlled by these rings. If
he does, the responsibility he will there
by assume must be fearful.
To this fair pen picture of Radical
office hunting, as drawn by one of the
members of that party, we invite the at
tention of the public, and especially of
such honest men as may still own mem
bership in that corrupt organization.
Surely they are not all blinded by party
prejudice to the country's honor and
their own best interests.

The old and influential Whig organ,
the National Intel/Veneer, in an article,
the other day, on Congressional corrup

floor that V,00,000 were spent to carry
the Pacific Railroad bill, which was
mainly engineered by such great moral
leaders- as Thaddeus Stevens, mid then
continued:
There are subsidies now pending be•
fore this same body of "patriots" for

to $230,000,000! A large part of the two
thirds Radical majority have their pock
ets tilled with free passes over various
railroads In the country, and even in
this city, by which means, and others,
necessary legislation for the general
good is arrested, and members are sub

GRANTS TREE POSITION
The New York Herald, In an able
article, contrasts the positions occupied
by General Grant and Chief Justice
Chase. It says: -
" What was it that a short time ego
made Grunt seem the great inevitable
man of the future? It was that he had
the respect and confidence of the people
l as against' all parties. He was a man
standing alone—broad, grand, national
and differing from all other men In noth
ing so much as it. that he stood aloof
from party ; and they were nothing with
out their peculiar party power. Grant
wee the national man, Chase was the
leading radical. lint what' a change a
few weeks hag mule! Grant with all
his silence, with all his eautio d reserve,
has said enough to satisfy radicalism that
he is a candidate to slut it; and by his
relations to party men, by the readiness
with which he has fallen into radical re
construction plans, he is seen to be to-day
the creature, the ton!, if not the bond
slave of the nigger supremacy faction."
The above extract must strike every
Intelligent man as being etninently•true.
It sets Grant before the people fn a pro
per light, and defines most accurately and
clearly the position which he occupies.
He has sold himself to the hungry, of
fice-seekers of the Radical party, and he
will be run as their candidate. He is
the tool of the worst men in that corrupt
party. The people know that, and that
is the reason why his nomination, which
is already made, fails to elicit a spark of
enthusiasm. With an unexceptionable
candidate the •DeMocracy Cannot fall
to win in the coming election.

A meeting of negroes was held in ono
of the churches of Richmond during the
session of the Radical State Convention
last 'week, and a petition was gotten up
and forwarded to General Schofield, re
questing him to stop the further natural
ization of foreigners in Virginia. Is it
not astonishing to see how rapidly the
poison of Know-Nothingism has spread
among the negroes? They have scarce
ly been granted the right of suffrage un
til they desire to deprive foreign-born
white citizens of the privilege. That is
the natural effect of Radicalism. As a
party it conceals Its hatred of foreigners
for the present, but it rankles deep in
the heart of the organization, and crop"
out constantly. The negroes of the
South have been imbued with it by the
Radical carpet-bag adventurers who
have gone there from the North. Let
the Germans throughout the country be
careful to make a note of the action of

lIIMATOII GIITNFA
Mr. Grimes, (Rep.) of lowa, made a
long speech in the Senate, hi secret ses
sion, on Monday evening, In opposition
to the impeachment of the President.
He berm with a consideration of the
President's power of removal of the heads
of departments under the constitution,
quoting many authorities to show that
it was not denied or abridged up to the
tenure-of-office act. Passing over the
question of the constitutional validity of
that act, be took up the discussion of
whether Mr. Stanton's ease comes with
in its provisions. He did not consider
the Secretary of War either within the
first section of the acres the proviso,
and quoted the declarations of Mr.
Schenck and Mr. Sherman in the debate
on the passage of the bill in March, 1867,
to sustain the theory. He thought Mr.
Stanton held office wider the pleasure of
the President alone under the act of 1789,
and that the President alone could re
move him. He did not think there was
any distinction between the power of
the President to remove in recess, and
his power to remove during the session
of the Senate, an officer who held solely
by his pleasure. Taking up then the
second article; he said the temporary
designation of a person to discharge
the duties of an office until the office
could be filled was made legal by the act
of 1795, which, he is satisfied, has not
been repealed by that of 1843. But even
if he thought otherwise, Mr. Grimes said
he should he unable to convict the Presi
dent of a crime in such a temporary ap
pointment, not doubting that the Presi
dent said in good faith and believed that
he was acting within the laws. He dis
missed the conspiracy articles very brief
ly, 09 he did the eighth and ninth articles.
He then took up the question of intent,
saying lie had no doubt that the Presi
dent thoroughly believed the tenure-of
office act unconstitutional, and said he
was advised of its unconstitutionality by
Mr. Stanton and other members of his
Cabinet, and Mr. Grimes thought it not
strange that under the circumstances
the President should doubt or question
its scope. He held, however, that
Stanton's case was not included in the
provisions of this act, and that, there
fore; the question of intent need not be
considered as the President had done no
unlawfill sot. But even if it were in
cluded, the guilty intent was not such as
warranted the judgment demanded by
the House. The Senator went on to say
that if the President might not in this
way make a case for the courts to pass
upon, the complete supremacy of Con
gress over ail other branches of govern
ment was established, and he was no
believer in' such doctrine. Mr. Grimes
turned off the remaining articles in a few
words, and closed as follows:
"I have expressed no views upon any
of the questions upon which the Presi
dent has been arraigned at the has of
public opinion outside of the charges.
I have no right to travel out of the re
cord. Mr. Johnson's character as
statesman, his seleticifis to political par
ties, his conduct as a ()Mien, his efforts
at reconstruction, the exercise of his
pardoning power, the character of
his appointments and the influences
under which they were made, are
not before us on any charges. Nor
can I suffer my judgment of the law gov
erning this case to be influenced by po
litical considerations. 1 cannot agree to
destroy the harmonious working of the
constitution for the sake of getting rid
of an unacceptable President. What
ever- my opinion of the incumbent,
can c tot consent
,to trifle with the high
cal lie holds. I differ wisely with the
President respecting his political' views
and eaten:urea and deeply regret the
differences between him and Congress;
but I cannot, in my judicial capacity,
record my vote that he is guilty of high
-crimes and misdemeanors
IN=
A Washington correspondent of the
New York World, under date of Satur
day, writes;
The Republican party is, in fact, placed
in a gratifying quandary. One of the
rumors concerning Mr. Fessenden,
whioh, whether it lies a respectable ori
gin or not, helps to illustrate the fitful
fearsomeness ef Radical Congressmen
and others who are circulating it, is the
he said in conversation with a gentleman
from his own Stet°, that If the President
should be couvicted the Democratic „par
ty would carry Maine next fall. Three
Radical members of the House, with
whom I happened to converse the other
evening, spoke of the RepubliCan party
as "pretty well disorganized, conviction
or no conviction," and anybody who
takes the unpleasant pains to mingle
with tlig garrulous throngs of Radicals
who susbll the nightly crowd at Willard's
cannot fail to be edified with their reck
less candor. The better class of Itepeb
!lean leaders have some reason to be
alarmed by the auregestion that Mr.
Wade and his friends will, after his ac
cession, and espeolally if Wade should
not receive the nomination for Vice-
President, cut loose from the Conserve
Live wing,- of the party altogether,
give up the ship, and "go it blind" for
their initial benefit until a Democratic
President is inaugurated in March.—
There are a plenty of Radicals in the
Senate and in the country capable, in
default of the certainty of success next
fall, of turning the whole fabric of gov
ernment toes) , turvy while Mr. Wade
is In possession, and gorging themselves
with spoil. Reputation, present or
postilurnoqs, is doubtless a very fine
thing to honorable gentlemen. Repute,-
tion with a party is commonly preferable
to most politicians. But in the cases of
politicians so lost to every sense of right,
duty and propriety as to vote to substi
tute Ben Wade as President of the United
States, in the place of !Mt Johnson, rep
utation i either patriotic or political, has
but a flimsy put So ,eorrupt, indeed,
have become our politics, that sell-ag
grandizement, even pecuniary ecif•ag
grandixement, is a consideration that the
lowest office-seeker in Washington re
grets he bas not the means to apply.
And, while the Radical jugglers in Con
gress who manipulate the people's attain
are glad enough to be thought well of by
deluded constituents, a glittering bribe,
or a few months' lease of power and op
portuntity of "pickings," are temptations
for which how many of them would
hesitate to risk their "sacred honors?"
Other tokens, which I omitted to men
tion in my last letter, are the reactionary
sentiment manifested by Conservative
Republican Senators against the bully
ing course of the Managers, and the stall
e angry resentment aroused by the
Outside system of secret espionage and
partisan intermeddling with the affairs
of members of the court. No less than
three Senators on the Radical side of
the Chamber have dowered since Friday
last, In terms more or less emphatic, that
if the impeachment of President John
son should prove a failure, the Managers
and the officious poLittelana here who
are employing the basest means to forge
conviction, will be themselves responsi
ble for the issue.
Gov. ENGLISH ON LIIPSACHNENT.—
In his recent inaugural, Gov. English,
of Connecticut, made the following
pointed allusion to the proposed
tm
peachment of President Johnson :
No conviction, gained under such eir
cumstanceis, will bb approved by the
American people. Its shame will rest
upon the executioners, mot upon the
victim. The civilised world will re
ceive their Judgment with derision, and
history will record it to the lasting op
probrium of constitutional government.
Nor should it bersverlooked, as a deplor

fects a people only in the worst of times,
that - the distinguished man who stands

and Elder W. A. Wilt, of York, Tressu
er. Rev. W. It. H. Deatrich; 6f this
place, Is the Stated Clerk. The sacra
ment of the Lord's Supper was adminis
tered ou Sunday, the church being emwd
ed to its utmost capacity. The neigh
boring pulpits—at New Chester, New
Oxford, Abbottstown, Hanover, and
York—were filled on the same day by
members of the Classic. The business
brought before Class's was despatched In
a harmonious and prompt manner, and
the body adjourned at noon on Tuesday,
all pronouncing it one of the most pleas
ant meetings in the history of the organiz
ation. The hospitalities of the towu and
vicinity were freely extended to those In
attendance, and a resolution properly
acknowledging these kindnesses was
unanimously passed in return. The
Chisels will meet on the third Friday in
May next year, at Newport, Perry co.
"You Can't Eat 'Em!"—The following
'juvenile incident" occurred in this
county recently. Immediately after the
taking of a penny collection in a Sun
day School, a clergyman arose to ad
dress the children. He started out by
asking them a number of questions, and
presently this: "What can you do with
pennies?" "Buy bibles," replied one of
the scholars ; "buy hymn books," con
tinued another; "send missionaries to
the heathen," answered a third. "Yes,"
said the preacher, "you can buy bibles
and hymn books, and send missionaries
to the heathen, with pennies. You can
do a great many things with pennies.
Indeed, what can't you du with them ?"
Instantly there came from one corner of
the church, in n little but distinct voice,
"you can't cat 'em!" Of course "the
house" "came down"—and the clergy
man asked no more questions.

DIRDS OF A FEATHER, &c.—The entire
Pilectoral ticket of the Radical party in
Louisiana Is made up of Negroes, said
upwards of twenty Of the Radical dele
gates from the South to the Chicago
Convention, which Is to nominate
Grant for President, are also Negroes.
This is the first time in the history of
parties in this country that
Cuffee has been permitted to take a
front seat in a National Presidential
Convention. But - we have ii doubt
these niggent will be received with open
arms by their white associates, Sumner,
Stevens, Wade tic' Company. It •is a
great pity the Convention don't meet in
July or August, instead of May.
AN exchange asks: "What are we
taxed for?" Well, sir, pretty much as
follows:
First, to free the Degrees, and make
hem your equals.
Second, to support negroes in idleness,
and thereby make them your superior.
Third, to pay the taxes of these negro
paupers, and thus enable them to out vote
yfou.
Fourth, to keep up an army to overawe
you and destroy your liberties.
The above, and about a hundred other
similar things, are what you are taxed for.
IT costa one hundred and fitly million
dollars annually to govern the Southern
States under the Rump despotism plan,
and the whole expense is born by North
ern workingmen. Formerly the South
ern States were not only able to pay for
their own government, but they paid
over two hundred million dollars annu
ally Into the Government Treasury.
They would do the same now, under
righteous and enlightened political pol
icy, but they never will under military
despotism and negro suffrage.—Pubiot

SENATOR SHERMAN admits that the
expenses of the army for the Furrent
year will not be less than ONE HUN
