If they will behave themselves, we will not object to their 'supporting our candi dates. We have no desire to.. read them - out—we want their votes. A very few votes' may elect our ticket.

In another column we give Satur day's proceedings of the High Court of Impeachment.

We; have no right to question their honesty until we know theY more not true to their oaths. tzt.A dispatch from Chicago, says "Since- the acquittal of President Johnson, Wade is losing strength as a candidate for nomination for the Vice Presidency." After all, is it not possible that the several candidates for the Vico Presi dency, and their friends, had a heavy hand in the game played in the High Court on Saturday last. Mr. Wade in the Presidential chair to day, with thousands of fat offices and millions of government patronage at his disposal, could have knocked the other aspirants before the - Chicago Convention higher than , a kite. If seven Republican votes wore. necessary and were secured to defeat Mr. Wide, could not mere have been secured to vote the same way if their votes had been necessary to keep him out of the Presidential chair. FEMALE VOTING.—Mrs. R. S. Mc• Conaughy, the able oditress of tho Clay ton (Del.) Herald, gives the following reason far being opposed to woman suffrage : "For years we have made polities our study, not only for our own satis faction, but that we might be better able to instruct our boys, who will some day have the right to vote, and per haps to govern. We-have boon (if we may be so allowed to speak), behind the scenes, htid have seen the work ings of politics, not only in one but both political parties. Wo have seen men who, in all other things,have seem ed honest and upright, stoop to em ploy intrigue and deception to carry out their own ends, and help the party they belong to and believe to be right, to gain the ascendency. In polities they seem to think all things fair, whether it squares with the Bible or not.- Taking men as our example, and having soon the effect politics has on thorn,, it is our opinion it will not add anythin„v to the dignity, modesty, or purity of- women, but will tend very materially to degrade the sex. Give woman the right to vote, and how long will it be before she will want an of fice, and being ambitious like man, will she not use any and every means —even intrigue and deception—to gain power ?" • We think the editress has given one of the best reasons that could bo ad duced in opposition to woman suffrage. SIM confesses she has been "behind the scenes and seen the workings of 'poli tics." That is all that-is necessary to convince any one of the present evil tendency -of politics upon men, and can wo expect any thing bettor of woman ? Placed in the same situa tion, they would be led to do what man is now guilty of, and for that reason, women should be excluded from the political sphere. We acknowledge that Much good would be done in cer tain 'directions, if women were-allowed "to vote; but we -cannot think of the fair creatures turning politicians,stuMP ing the County-and Stato as political speakers, •buttomholing young; men, old men, girls and women when they happen to be eandid'ates; or engaging . in'the' mean tricks of the political in triguer. Anything but that. Mrs. McConaughy closes the article as fol lows: "If she would make her mark in the world, our advice is to do it within the sanctuary of home, where it will be seen and felt, and not by wishing to take upon herself the prerog atives of men. If. woman but under stood her whole duty, and' conscien tiously carried it out, might not a great deal of the corruption against which all have so much to - say, not only in politics, but in many other things, be avoided? Lot woman rest contented in the sphere in which God has placed het, 'which is not only separate and distinct from man's, but superior to it, and than which there is none greater." Pendleton Repudiated. The Now York . Oltizen, edited by Col. Ha'pine, is the recognized organ of tho War Democrats. That journal speaks out thus of the gentle Pendle ton : "We say distinctly, positively and unchangeably as the laws of the Modes and Persians, that never will those for whom we speak, help directly or indi rectly, by assertation or silence, by action or idleness the' election of the utter copperhead and false hearted Northerner, George_ H. Pendleton. Until the water runs up hill, until trees grow with leaves under-ground and roots above, until the moon gives heat and the sun loses its fire, until beasts become men and angels turn to devils, until ice shall burn and fire alien freeze, until every thing that is im possible becomes possible, and not then, will War Democrats vote for the man who was false not only to his country, but to his section, who was conspicuous only as a degrading example of possi ble Northern meanness, and who, by his indirect support to their foes, slew their eons and brothers. Rather a thousand times, would they see the loyal soldier and moderate Republican, General Grant, in the Presidential ohair, a person who, if not agreeing with them in all their views is much more nearly their representative than a man whose prudence kept him from being a traitor." MrSome of the leading New York Democrats are giving out the Dern °cretin platform to be presented at their National Convention on the 4th of July. According to their story, the planks are these : The first is a decla ration against human,slavery ; the see Ond, a declaration that the Confeder ate debt is void; third, that tho N ational .debt is to'bo paid exactly as preseribiad bylaw ; fourth, for qualifi ed Manhood suffrage, to be controlled by the" States. Upon this basis they Say they are sure a great party can be built up, that, shall not only gather nearly all the Democratic strength to itself but also secure large conservative Republican support. They also say that they are looking for the most available candidates to run on such a platform. General Grant's Opinions, NEW, YoRR, May 13.—Among the letters read before the Anti-Slavery So ciety this morning was one from C. E. Moss, dated Washington, May 19, which says : "General Grant is working hard with his friends to secure conviction. Ho says Johnson's acquittal will result in bloodshed. His opinions ought to in fluence Republican Senators to remove the only obstacle in the way of peace. "General Grant the past week has declared himself in favor of universal suffrage, and declares that must be the ruling idea of his administration, if elected in 1868." 1e Our neighbors of tho Journal & Anterie'an wont fishing last week with out bait. They nominated Mr. Mor rell and Mr. Scott for Congress. 'ado out—the P. O. is not yet "to let."

IVhile the vote. was being taken the members of thq;ELouse, of Representa• w fiveswere announced asst the bar of, the Senate. They entered headed by Mr. Washburne, of ID:, and attended bj , their clerk and door-keeper. Most of the members had proceeded them, and had taken seats on the floor of the Senate Chamber and in the gal leries. Senator Pessenden rose to melee a motion to Postpone the vote for an hour on account of the absence of Sen ator Grimes, but on being informed that the Senator was in the Capitol, ho did not make the motion. • Mr. Grimes immediately afterwards came into the chamber and took a seat in ono of the side aisles. Mr 'Edmunds then submitted an or der to the Senato. That the Senate do now proceed to vote on the articles according to the rules of the Senate.— Agreed to. The Chief Justice rising, said : The Chief Justice desires to admonish the citizens aad strangers in the galleries that absolute silence and perfect order is required. It will he a subject of in finite regret if any violation of the rules of the Senate will precipitate tho execution of the published order, that the persons guilty of disturbance will be immediately removed. Then addressing the Senators, the Chief Justice said:—Senators, in con formity to the order of the Senate, the Chief Justice will now proceed to take the vote on the 11th article, as direc• ted by the rule. The first name on .the roll, that of Senator Anthony, being called, that, Senator arose in his place, and the Chief Justice, also standing, addressed to him this formula :—Mr. Senator An thony, how say you ? is the respondent Andrew Johnson, President of the United States, guilty or not guilty of a high misdemeanor, as charged in the article ?

THE VICE PRESIDENCY.—The New York correspondent of the Hartford Courant writes as follows : Mr. Grecly would liko to see Schuyler Colfax put on the ticket with Grant. Ho is now, however, of the opinion that ox-Gov ernor Curtin, of Pennsylvania, whom ho by no means dislikes, will receive the nomination. He expresses the be lief that Curtin's nomination will be a good stroke of policy to make a sure thing of the Keystone State, and that, inasmuch as the State election in Penn, sylvania comes off a month prior to tho Presidential, the prostigo and po tency of Curtin's namo will be desira ble to soeuro the restoration of the State, and hence a powerful influence on the other States in tho Presidential contest. The Articles of Impeachment. Much has been said about the sepa rate articles of impeachment presented, and in order to advise our readers cor rectly of their import wo reproduce them to-day, so that whenever the re sult of the vote is known they can at once refer to them. The following is a synopsis of the articles : Article I declares that the President issued an order for the removal of Stan ton from the office of Secretary of War, the Senate then being in session, inten ding thereby to violate .the Tenure of Office act. II charges that the President, there being no vacancy in the War Office; authorized General Thomas, in writing, to act as Secretary ad interim, the Sen ate then being in session, and with in tent to violate tho Tenure act and the Constitution. Article 111 is like the second, except that it alleges that the President ap pointed Thomas Secretary of War with out the advice and consent, of the Sen ate, and without authority of law, and with the intent to violate the Consti tution. Article IV alleges that the President conspired with Thomas and other un known persons to prevent Stanton, by threats, frbm acting as Secretary of War, thereby violating the conspiracy act of - July, 1861, and the Constitution. Article V charges that the President conspired with Thomas and others to prevent the-execution of the Tenure act; and that in pursuance of this con spiracy, he and they attempted to hin der Stanton, by unlawful means, from acting as Secretary of War. Article VI alleges that the conspire ters intended by force to get possession of the public property in the War De partment, contrary to the Conspiracy act of July 1861, and with the purpose of thus violating the Tenure act. , ArtieWVll is very much like Arti cle VI, merely adding that tho con• spiracy to get possession of the prop erty in the War Office was formed with the intent Lo violate the Tenure act, omitting all allegations as to the act of July, 1861. • - • Article VIII declares that the ad in terimappointmen t of Tbomits was made with the iritent_ on. the fittii of the President to control the, military ap propriations for the War Department in an illegal Manner, intending, there by to violate the Tenure act. Article IX charges that the Presi dent on the 22d of February, 1868, in structed Gen. Emory (the commander of the troops in Washington,: that the act of March, 1867, which requires all military orders to be given through Gcn. Grant, Was unconstitutional; and that the - President tried to persuade Emory to disregard this law and re ceive orders directly from him. Article X relates to the speeches made by the President at Washington in August, 1866, about Congress hang ing on the verge of the Government, and St. Louis, in the following Septem ber, while "swinging around the cir cle." Article XI charges that the Presi dent declared in a speech at Washing ton, in August, 1866, that the 89th Congress was not a constitutional body, but a CongreSs of only a part of the States; that he thus denied that its legislation was valid and obligatory upon him, except so far as he approved the same, and also denying its power to propose amendments to the Consti tution ; and, in pursuance to this deni al, unlawfully devised means to pre vent the execution of the tenure ant, by trying to prevent Stanton from re suming his duties as Secretary of War and also advised means to prevent the execution of the act requirihg army. orders to be given through General Gra❑t; and also devised means to pre vent Lho execution of the "act to pro. vide for the more efficient government of the rebel States," commonly. called the reconstruction act. Thcso offen ses are popularly called misprision of perjury—i. e., trying to induce offi cers to violate their oaths, or devising plans to violate one's, own oath, by re fusing to execute these lows. This is the substance of all the arti cles, omitting their technicalities, and paying no regard to their verbiage. [From tho Harrisburg Slob Guard.] Results Looking Toward a Union o Christian Churches, It is with ordinary pleasure that we sum up sonic of the results achieved at the Lutheran General Synod, which closed its sessions in this city, yester day—rosults which conclusively point to a union of Christian Churches, and a consequent dissipation of the cold ness which has heretofore kept apart sects in this and all other countries. The most marked features of the Synod, outside of Its.regular business, were, First, the reception of - a delegate froM the New School Presbyterian General Assembly; Second, the ap pointment of delegates to ,the General Synod of the German Reformed Church, to the General Now School Presbyter ia'n Assembly; to - the Northern Re. formed ,Synod of the United Brethren, and 'to - the Evangelical Chtirch Union of the West; Third, the passage of a resolution looking to corresponding action with the Old School Presbyter ian General Assembly; Fourth, an ex change of dologaticins with the Con gregationalists of Ohio; Fifth, a reso lution looking toward fraternal rela tions with the Reformed Dutch Church; and Sixth, the appointment of a large delegation to the World's Convention of the Evangelical Alliance, which met last year at Amsterdam. It is pecu liarly appropriate that the church of the Great Reformer, Martin Luther, who inaugurated Christian liberality I in the dark and intolerant age of 1516 by nailiug the ninety-five theses on the door of the Castle Church at Witten burg; should now be the first to move in the noble work of Christian unity. The only exception to this becoming exhibition of Christian liberality; is the intolerance exhibited by the Synod for Romanism and ritualistio forms. —So much for the liberality of the General Synod of the Lutheran Church of the United States. It; now romaine to be seen how much further in broth erly love and charity and respect for the right of opinion, the General Syn od of the New School Presbyterian Church of the United States to meet in Harrisburg next week, will go in exhibiting the same Christian spirit.

[For the Globe.] MR. Earree.—My attention has been call ed to an article in last week's Mount Union Times. recommending for the Sheriffalty, Captain D. It. P. Neely of Dublin township. I wish to endorse the sentiments of the writer of this article, and in behalf of justice, and propriety, urge the nomination of this gentle. man at the ensuing county convention. Cap tain Neely entered the service of his country during the late war, as a private soldier, voluntarily, without any necessity upon him, more than others who staid at home, for the period of three years, and was in all the heavy part of the war, with the Buck Tail Regiment; rising by his merits from place to place till he reached the Cap taincy. Since the close of the war he has done good service in the Republican party, and is in every way reliable, and would make a most excellent Sheriff. If the soldiers de serve well at our hands, hero is a chance to make our appreciation of their service. The nomination of the Capt. would give strength to the ticket, as ho is a popular man, and has never before sought any position of favor from the public. • Huntingdon Co., May 15,'68 Stamps and Blanks.
