Wliether the President has trj 1-> pn\v
i-rof removal is jnirely a cpo-tioii for
tin* Courts, if the Tenure of ntUce law
is decided by the Supreme Court to bo
constitutional, then Andrew Johnson
has violated the law of the land. Tf it
is pronounced uneoii-tiimhma), the
President has lraiwyre—ed no law, and
impeachment fall- to tin* ground
But even if liu* Temuv of oilier law
were constitutional, Stanton lias no
claim to hold his po-iiion under it.--
Under that very law hi> term of* office

has remained in ufUce only by -.ufirr
ance, and by the very ktiiu <-f the Ten
ure of OlU'-e law can hi- rr.u’ivrd at uuv
moment.
It will he well tor the people to con
eider the issues involved in this im
peachment question. The Radical rev
olutionists have two objects in view--
the first is to turn the attention of tin*
public away from their own girat
crimes—and the second to remove An
drew Johnson from their path and put
a pliant party tool in his place. Let us
hope the people will not lose sight of
the fact that tho«e conspirators against
the liberties of the country are the real
criminals. Placed beside their black
and bloody record, the character of An
drew Johnson's administration is pure
and spotless. These men have over
thrown civil government in ten States
of the Union, have removed the'r ex
ecutives and closed the doors of their
courts anti legislative halls, have estab
lished military de-potisins on the ruins
of popular liberty, have overthrown all
constitutional guarantee-!, have abolish
ed trial by jury and freedom of speech
and of the press, have deprived the
President of his constitutional office as
Commander in Chief of the Army, have
sought to take from the Supreme Court
the power to determine the constitu
tionality of an act of Congress. In the
name of an outraged Constitution, are
these men not guilty of “high crimes
and misdemeanors?” Do they not
stand before the country as the im
peached and not the impeachers? An
drew Johnson is to be deposed from his
high office and Ben Wade put in his
place, in order that these traitors may
maintain their party ascendency by ne
gro supremacy established in ten States
of the Union under a military despo
tism. Grant has consented to be their
pliant tool in working the military des
potism ; but ho is only “ the General of
the Armies” and not Commander in
"'Chief—consequently Wade is to be
made President in order that the great
iniquity may bo carried out, and a new
Congress and a new President may be
elected by tlic negroes of the South.—
These are the issues involved in im
peachment. Will the people continue
much longer to sue for peace and justice
in soft and tender words, when their
strong arms and stout hearts could hurl
from power and place the desecrating
scoundrels who fill them. Will they
much longer submit to these wrongs be
yond endurance, these outrages without
parallel, these unblushing usurpations
when they have the power to set mat
ters right in very short order?
oint COLLEGES,
A bill has been presented to the Leg
islature providing that certain of our
chartered colleges, which shall have suit
able grounds, buildings capable of ac
commodating two hundred, students,
apparatus and cabinets to the value of
three thousand dollars, a library with
at least three thousand volumes, a Pres
ident and at least four Professors, with
a full collegiate course of study, and a
permanent income of five thousand dol
lars, shall receive an appropriation of
three thousand dollars perannum from
the State. In return for this donation,
each of these colleges is to educate one
student, free of charge, for every fifty
dollar.-; of the appropriation. These
students are to be admitted upon the
recommendation of the* teacher- of the
| Mchooir* they have attended, eertilie i to
by the heard of directors or controllers
of tin* district in which they have been
in.-lrncted, and by tie- Comity Superin
tendent of the county in which they
reside.
If this ineaMire can be earned out. in a
spirit of justice l and fairness, il will be
of advantage not only to our higher in
stitution'-’ of learning, but io.the State
at large anil to the general interests of
education. Tho great need of the day
N educated men : and a policy which
places the higher branehe- of education
within tie'reach of those win) are not
able in pay for their tuition can be fol
' lowed by none other than good ii'suUs.
I In view of what our common school
i i sysetm has done, this proposition needs
I no argument in its defense. There are
I ten or twelve institutions of learning
| in the Slate which would bo entitled to
! the appropriation under the provisions
j of lids act, and the annual cost to tho
1 Siate would not ho greater than thirty
j or thirty-six thousand dollars—a mere
drop in the bucket, when we consider
the thou-aml? of dollars which tire an-
nimlly appropriated by our Legislature
to le-* worthy object-. There aro now
about four hundred young- men who an
nuaiJy go from our State to the institu
tions of learning in the Kiwtern and oth
er .Stales, who-e annual expenses there,
at a moderate e-timate, would reach
three hundred dollars each, making
a grand total of one hundred and
twenty thousand dollars annually car
ried out of the State. If by an an
nual appropriation of thirty-six thou
sand dollar* we cun rai.-e our institu
tion* of learning in a few years to the
level of the New Lnglaud Colleges, and
keep our young men at home, we will
be gainers in point of economy alone,
if then- were no Merer motive*. As a
matter ot local inlere-t. this proposition
deserve* our good wishe*. An appro
priation of S;I,(JUU a year to Dickinson
College, will enable the trustees to em
ploy a larger faculty, whu*e salaries
\v ill In* expend* d in our midst ; and an
addition of sixty pupils to the number
of-indent*, will bring an addition of
fifteen ur eighteen thousand dollars of
trade annually lev our men of bu-ine.-s.
' \Vi* tru-t tin* -übieet will receive that
careful and impartial - invalidation
m bicli it- importance <i -m.md-.

i-hcering indications of the mi ing down

tin- Democratic party, aim mu* strong

An 1 loxi>t Admission,— John Hick
man, a member of our State Legislature
fro in t ’hosier County, in u *peech in the
Hou-o, a lew ilay* since, declared that
•• not mu* living soul” could authorita
tively declare what was the Republican
platform of and add'd: “Our
parly ha> been for the negro or against
the negro, as the particular circumstan-
of a particular locality might sc.mi
to render must advisable.” This confes
sion <>f double-dealing is perfectly char
a-denstie of Radical leadership eve
rywhere and at all Uiqes.
(,’i like chickens, al way- ■•omo
home to ro isl." During the i incoln
administration it was adjudged to bo
treason of the rankest kind to take up
arms against the government, which
then will the Executive. Geary, of
Pennsylvania, Merrill, of lowh, and
a few other valiant spirits, now propose
to organize a military force lo fight the
President of the United Stales, who, by
virtue of the (’onstidution, is Comman
der-in-chief of all the Jam! and naval
forces of the United States. Judged by
Lincoln logic, wind are these fellows
guilty of?
Eoknisy says: “Andrew Johnson
was made President hy the assassin.”
At the time Andrew Johnson assumed
the duties of the Executive office the
same individual plastered him with ful
some flattery and announced with pious
fervor that “ lie was made President by
the hand of Divine Providence.” Is
Providence the “ assassin” to whom ho
now’refers?
How aiie You, Oeauy?—Thu fol
lowing telegram was sent from New
York to President Johnson on Tuesday :
“Every demit man in New York city
is with yon. lie will take rare of (ill
Governor Geary's men. God bless you.
We are ready for the issue.”
The month of March, 1808, will ex
hibit two wonderful events—the trial of
Jefferson Davis for insisting that the
Southern -'tates wore out of the Union,
and the trial of Andrew Johnson for in
sisting that they are in the Union.
Tin: Radical Hump refused to send a
minister from the Government to tile
Papil Stales, but voted with alacrity to
send one to the worthless, revolution,
cursed negro “republic” of Hayti. The
first act was to insult the Catholics—the
other to compliment the niggers.
The refusal of Judge Carltor (a Radi
cal of the most ultra stripe i to hold Gen.
Thomas for trial for an illeged violation
of the tenure of cilice act, is a plain con
fession that Gen. Thomas’ arrest was
only a “game of bluff” and that the act
in question will not bear tile legal test.

i left her home tq visit the house of a
neighbor, situated at some distance from
her father’s farm. Between the two
houses lies a considerable piece of woods
through which the girl had to pass. A
negro boy of about nineteen years, whose

for Mr. Layton on his farm. The negro
overheard the liulegirl talking about go

lie slipped into the woods and secreted
himself. (Vs she came up he ran out,

Leaving his .victim insensible, lie fled

Tho excitement on the impeachment
question has subsided somewhat since
Monday last. Old Thad Stevens appear
ed at the liar of the Senate, and in the
name of the House of -Representatives
impeached Andrew ‘Johnson of “high
crimes and misdemeanors.’’ A commit
tee of seven has been appointed by the
House to prepare specific articles of Im
peachment; but, although they have
been hard at work all week, have not
yet agreed upon a report. They Mind
-great difliculty in framing the articles so
that they will hold water; for these charg
es are now to receive a Judicial investi
gation, and tho silly charges which have
been urged against tho President, aro so
far from sufilcient to base a conviction
upon that the Radical committee is com
pletely etnggorod.
In a trial on impeachment tho Chief
Justice of the Supreme Court presides
and two-third* of the Senators are nec
essary to a conviction. The present
Rump or fragmentary Senate stands;
Rads do; Democrats B—Mr, Thomas of
Maryland, having been rejected lately,
no doubt in anticipation of such ft trial.
Senator Doolittle will vote with the De
mocracy, making tho count stand—Rads
41; Democrats h. If all the Rads vote to
gether President Johnson would bo Con
victed, of course. However, twenty Sen
ators, from ten of the Southern Stales,
arc absent. The presence of these would
of course materially chains* results, and
the legality of an impeachment trial in
their enforced absence may well bo ques
tioned. Several Republican Senators, it
is said, will refuse to convict the Presi
dent, unless a clear case is made out
against him, which may render the Sen
ate’s action doubtful. If it bo true, as
some of the Radical papers assort, that
nearly every Radical Senator has already,
hv words and declarations, committed
himself in favor of conviction, there
would be no earthly use i n going I hnm-!i
the farce of a trial. What will the coun
try say to a trial, conducted before a ju
\ ry. who have not waited for the facta, the
1 evidence or the law, but have seen prop
er to pronounce a verdict of guilty in ad-
I vance of all these ?
When General Thomas appeared before
Judge Canter, on Thursday, he was mi
, conditionally discharged. This was a
; Radical trick to relieve themselves from
I the dilemma in which they suddenly
found lhem*«dves. Hail he been commit
ted tor trial, he would have relumed to
give hail ; and as soon ns he was sent to
; pri-on, would have sued nut a writ of
)tuhr((. f corpus, which would have at once
brought the whole question of the Ten
ure of OlTloo Bill before the courts. This
was just what the Radicals did not want,
and hence the course pursued by Judge
(’artier. The prompt discharge of Gen.
Thomas, is u positive acknowledgement
of weakness on the part of Radicalism,
and so it is universally regarded by the
country. The Radicals have placed
themselves in an awkward dilemma.—
The logical deduction from the action of
(he Court in discharging the prisoner
clearly is that General Thomas had com
mitted no ofl’ense in-acting us Secretary
of War, and, if he had not, then the Pres
ident had committed no offense in ap
pointing him. While the decision of
the District Court has that efleet, it can
only he received in logic and in law as a
decision that General Thomas jmd not
committed the ollonse for which he was
arrested. For what then i.- the President
to be impeached ?
The net of the Senate rejecting Hon.
Philip V. Thomas, who a few months
since was elected to that body by the
Legislating >•!' the State of Maryland,
constitutes one of the grossest and most
daring outrages ev.-r perpetrated in the
history of the g-,w; mnout. If these
tilings can be done m. --'tme in the Union
Is safe. It was In.: i-mrday that New
Jersey was slriekmi down in the person*
of Mr. Stockton, and now two radical
Senators misrepn-ent the voice of her
people. To-day it i- Maryland that suf
fers under the m ilicnaiii vengeance of
this party, in the per-mi of a gentleman
of lofty ami unsullied honor, admitted
abilities, and a record in which studious
malice has not been able to find a flaw or
a blot. There is not a man in tho land,
of Milll' ient intelligence to read a news
paper. ulio does not know that if Mr.
Thomas had come forward as tho ally
and accomplice of the Radical fac'ion, ,
tlie doors of the Senate would have flown
open tit his approach. Had he chosen so
to condescend, he might have taken a i
sen t among the notorious ex-secessionists, j
like .Stokes and Logan, who are leaders
of this so-called loyal party. It ia a very 1
serious consideration for the people of
America whether they will endure or re
sist this fraud and volence. Sooner or
later they must make up their minds to
yield finally to this usurpation, or put it
down, at whatever cost. ThN action of
the Senate Is proof, if any wmo needed,
that the people cannot t/jo soon begin to
resolve upon the course they intend to
pursue, if they would preserve their lib
erties.
Sumner presented a petition, the other
day, from sundry citizens of New Eng- {
land, praying that the office of President
of the United States- bo abolished. A
characteristic memorial of New England
fanaticism, and presented to the Senate
by a fitting reresontutive of precisely
such revolutionary views. The New
York T'nnrn thinks the appeal more sig
nificant than at first it seemed In bo.—
The Timfi < says these petitioners “have
observed that the Radical theory is that
any tiling in Government which is not
very well liked may be abolished forth
with. If the Supremo Court can be re
solved out of practical existence, why not
the Presidency? If an election goes
■wrong (lor the Radicals) Congress is ap
... .... u , xe r ~Wl
cer, civil or military, displeases the ma
jority. the office lie holds is lo he got out
of existence, so that the holders may bo
got out of power.” The Radicals llave
come to the conclusion that Congress is
not merely the supreme power of the
land, hut that It is rightfully the arbiter
of the world’s affairs. Some of these
, days this potential body will he brought
; up on a “ short turn,” and we shall then
; see what a weak, puny affair it is, after
1 all Lite fuss made about it.
In anticipation of the conviction and
removal of the President, the .Radical
wire pullers are busy getting up a Cabi
net for old Ren. Wade, who is to take his
place. The following is said to have
been agreed upon :
Charles Bunmer, of Massachusetts,
Secretary of State;
Freeman Clark, of New York, Secre
tary of the Treasury ;
William D. Kelly, of Pennsylvania,
Secretary of the Navy;
Frederick Douglass (colored), of New
York, Secretary of the Interior;
John M. Langston (colored), of Ohio,
Postmaster-General;
M. H. Carpenter, of Wisconsin, Attor
ney-General ;
Fdwin M. Stanton, Secretary of War,
of course.
Before this little programme is carried
out, however, the President and the peo
ple may concmdo to act upon the advice
of Hon. Geo. W. Woodward, of your
State, who said, in concluding his speech
in the House: “Mr. Speaker, so sure
am I that the American people would re
spect this objection, that if I were the
President’s counsellor, I would advise
him that if you prepare articles of im
peachment, todemur both to yourjurisdic
tion and that of the Senate, and to issue
a proclamation giving you and all the
world notice that whilst he held himself
Impeached for misdemeanors in cilice,
before the constitutional tribunal, be
never would subject the otllco lie holds
in trust for the people to the irregular
unconstitutional, fragmentary bodies
who propose to strip him of it. Bueh a
proclamation, with the army and navy
in bis hands to sustain it, would meet a
popular response that would make an
end of impeachment nut) impeacners.”

JUTTINUS AT THE CAPITOL
The only thing worthy of note in the
Legislative proceedings was the general
appropriation bill. The Radicals aro
open for all possible “ nibbles” at the
Stale treasury. When the appropriation
for printing the Legislative Itccord was
up, the State Guard cilice proposed to do
the work for $12,00 a page. .Nothwith
standing this, the Radicals favored giv
ing it to Hessian Bernier for fifteen clol
dulfctrs a payc on the ground as, they
argued, that the last Legislature had
contracted with Rergner to do the work
for three years, for twelve dollars a pof/r.
Honest men are disposed toinquin*; if the
House is bound by the contract made by
the last Legislature, is not Rergner bound
todo the work /or twelve dollars a paga ?
The attempt to cheat Mr. Siiiigert out
of his seat in the State Senate mill con
tinues. The Baliefonto Watchman, in
speaking of the witnesses from Centro
county, says: “Of the three principal
witnesses hail to testify in the Shugert-
Patterson election caserne, of them, a
dozen ot men from this place will swear
they would not believe on ills oatli under
any circumstances; another was kept
out of the Western Penitentiary for for
gery, by his father swearing that lie was
crazy, and the other was saved imprison
ment for emhezzlling money belonging to
the Pennsylvania railroad company by a
Democrat paying up his defalcations’, and
trusting for the amount.”
There is a rich joke going tile rounds in
regard to the silly telegram of “Hans”
Geary to Simon Cameron, which you al
luded to last, week. The Patriot and
Union says:
“ Simon Camoron returned to Harris
burg on Saturday afternoon, and we are
reliably informed, the above “ telegram”
to himself at. Washington was concocted
on Saturday night by him, Geary, and
other Radicals of this city. Such a piece
of petty humbuggery to put that military
fuilur- “in the van” ol treason against
the Government, is just about worthy of
such corrupt partisans.
It is sutlicient to say that “ troops" la
Pennsylvania are aboutas “scarce as heu
teeth,” and that nobody believes a single
man has tendered his services in tho
cause of Rump usurpation and treason.
In this city the publication of the above
“telegram” merely excited broad and
derisive laughter among the adherents
of all parties, and a prominent ex-omcer
of the State, a Republican, yesterday
morning publicly pronounced Geary to
bo an “ old fool.” . .
From the indications at present, it is not
.ikely that the Democratic State Conven- ‘
ion, which meets on Wednesday, will
nave anv trouble In selecting candidates \
{..rail the positions in Us gift, owing to
toe lack of applicants. For Auditor Gen
eral, Gefi W. W. H. Davis of Bucks, Dr.
A. B. Markleyof Montgomery, and Hon.
C. E. Boyle of Fayette, are among the
most prominent named. For Surveyor
General, tho most conspicuous candidates
are J. M. Cooper, Esq., of Franklin co.,
and D. Carskaddon, of Clinton. The ,
number of gentlemen proposed for dele- j
gates at large to the National Convention :
is legion, and includes some of the lead
ing men in the State. Among those
whom we have heard most
mentioned are Hon S. J. Randall in
Philadelphia. Hon. Richard \ aux and
Hon. Win. C. Patterson of the same city.
Hon. J. Glancy Jones of Berks co., Gen.
Jas. I*. Barr of Pittsburg, Ex-Governors
Packer and Bigler, Hon. Packer o(
Carbon co., Hon. Win. A. Wallace o;
Cleartiehl, and Hon Arnold Plnmer of
Venango. Tho Convention will select
four Senatorial delegates and two candi
dates for electoral large. Thconly name
we have heard in connection with the
latter post is Hon. Wm. V. McGrath of (
Philadelphia, though as the time for the j
Convention to meet grows closer, we j
have no doubt that name** \fill be sug

Sj.i uatorial.— The scriptural saying
that “ the wicked stand on slippery pla
ces, ’’ did not hold good the last few days,
for many sinners, ns well os righteous in
dividuals, wore scon making very awk
ward curvatures and occupying exceed
ingly ungraceful horizontal positions on
the ice-coaled side walks, especially on
iho South side of Main street. Indeed
pedestrians generally engaged in “sllda
torial” exercises, and many wore brought
to a sense of their lowliness. It is no fun,
but the fates so decree, and tho only
choice is to gnu and boar it. That is en
durable, but t‘> have others grin at your
misfortune, is calculated to excite wrath
and indignation.—an utter recklessness
of spirit. We witnessed several very in
teresting and difficult back somersault
performances on the streets on Saturday
evening last, and judging from the man
ner in which acrobats executed them, we
came to tho conclusion that they had
made “star” engagements for the season.
We would suggest to the performers of
these Involuntary athletic feats the pro
priety of taking out a license, and going
legitimately into the show business.
Skiuous Accident.—' We are called «p
-pou to record a serious and almost fatal
accident to our townsman George K.
Duke, which occured lust Friday. It ap
pears Mr. Duke and one of his acquain
tances were out trying the qualities of a
repeating flre-anu ; thp loads had all been
expended except one, and while prepar
ing to arrange the pistol for the lust dis
charge, the contents of the barrel explod
ed, the ball penetrating the right tem
ple, and taking a circultious direction
lodged above the right eye. Mr. Duke’s
escape from death was very narrow, the
ball severed one of the arteries in its
course. The timely arrival of a physician
however, rendered such aid us the cir
cumstances demanded. Mr. Duke has
been very unfortunate in this respect, it
is only a few years since he met with u
serious disaster, from the premature dis
crim—u unvorn A
the left eye. Ho is now recovering.

Skuiol’h Accident.—Quito a serious
aecidentoceured at theDoublin Gap Saw
mill on Tuesday last, by which a young
man named Reuben Shuler eamo near
loosing his life. He had gone under the
saw mill to getnome tool that had fallen
down. Incautiously corning too near the
saw, which was then in rapid motion, it
struck him on the head, cutting him be
tween the eyes, upwards across the fore
head back along tlie top of the head and
transversely on the top and towards the
back part of the bead. There is also a
severe cut over the left eye. fn some
places the bone has been cut through and
the outside covering of the brain penetra
ted, and in others the flesh is torn from
the bone in a manner painful to behold.
Every pulsation of the artery can bo dis
tinctly seen on the naked brain. Hla
case is considered very critical.— NcwviUc

Bp ring Elections.— The elections for
township officers will occur on the third
Friday of March. Our Democratic
friends should bestir themselves in order
to secure the besUtiokets possible, and
then all rally to their support, Remem
ber, every vote cast for a Democratic can
didate is a vote in favor of a White .Man’s
government. Wherever the Radical/
may succeed it will be claimed as an/mi
dorsoment of the negro doininoUonaiia

that party. White men, choose!
Fire.— On Friday morning last, n fire
broke out in the cooper shop of Mr. Ro
zer, in North Middleton township, on
Varot’s farm, about two miles North of
Carlisle, which consumed the entire
building. Mr. B. lost one hundred flour
barrels and several, head of hogs by this
fire. We are informed the property was
insured to the amount of $2OO.
Serious Accident.— On Thursday af
ternoon last, John B. DehufT, while in
the stable of John Park, at the eastern
end of town, was kicked in the temple
by a horse and seriously injured. Ho
was taken to his homo, whero his wounds
were dressed. We are glad to learn that
his recovery is considered certain.
FAi.fi' ok Snow.— The fall of several
Inches of show on Sunday night and
Monday last, was rather unexpected as
well as unwelcome to those who are tired
of winter. It lias made the sleighing
