Notwithstanding the eloiuent appeals oi the Pn-idenl’s counsel, and the precedent- they cited in their favor, the Senate refused to give Mr. Johnson forty f 'r even twenty days to prepare fur trial, hut required him to proceed on Monday next.

Kvery hour Andrew .Johnson remained in jmwiT a a- -o nun-h irround 10-i by the Radical party, lienee he I*> not only to be deposed, but to be de posed as quickly a- pos-iMe. Tlie edict has gone forth—the -alvalion of the Radical party demands the instant re- moval of Andrew John-on —and the men who have not allowed eun-tUn tions, or law 1 -, or preeedemt-i, ov con science to stand in tin* way of their march to power and plunder, will not permit themselves to he hampered by legal forms or flu* claim- of decency and Justice*.

That plea may be good enough to sear the easy conscience.- of unscrupulous Radical Senator-; but there is a court of appeal—the great high court of public opinion. .Refove that court the action of the Senate will pass in review, and if gross injustice be done Andrew Johnston, woo bo to the Robespierres, the Cantons and Marats who do the deed. Let them look to history and see their fate written in blood. The people have borne with Radical outrages long and patiently.— It only requires some startling event to arouse them to relentless energy—as did the firing upon Sumpter. In signing tho death warrant of the old Ivin;;, the French Assembly wildly dreamt that they weroilyft,¥illK.their nans'." but tho very act brought them to the guillotine. NEW Hampshire.— The conspira tors give out a sickly crow over New Hampshire, whore they have succeeded by the “skin of theirteeth.” They feel thankful that they have not been anni hilated. The official majority for Har rimau, (.Radical) for Governor, is 2,.520. Last year It was 3,100. This shows a Radical loss of 040. That will do. One fire more and New Hampshire is ours.

A so-called Radical State Convention, I composed in the main of army coutrac tors, shoddyites, bought-up Democrats and “ narrow-minded blockheads,” as- 1 sembled in Philadelphia on the 11th inst., for the purpose of placing in nom ination candidates for the offices of Au ditor General and Surveyor General, I and the formation of an electoral ticket, and appointing delegates to the Nation al Convention. Our townsman, Lem uel Todd, Esq., was selected as the pre siding officer of the delectable body, and on taking the chair delivered a short but characteristic speech, full * f spleen, falsehoods and bitterness.- Grant received the unanimous v'to for Presi dent. and llnrtranft and Campbell, the incumbent-, were iv-imminatod by acclamation, for Auditor Ceneral and Surveyor < lem-ral.

Hans Geary had a letter read (who wrote it is no; stated.) in which he hatred that his friends would not present his name for the office of Vice* President of the United States! He said he was satislled with the position he at present held, and desired to serve the people of Pennsylvania as Gover noi of the State to the full end of the term for which they elected him. I’oor Hans! lie has evidently lost ca.-te with the partisans who made him their pliant too], and he is now regard ed hy men of all parlies as a complete failure. From the hour he was elect ed Governor lie has hud his eye on the otiice of Vice President. Vain as a pea cock and with little mo're sense than that beautiful fowl, the hero of Snick ersville really imagined himself “some pumpkin-/’ in the Jacobin ranks. For months past, the papers in his interest and the office-holders under him have diocn attempting to make a groat man out of him. They tickled him with the idea that the people desired to crowd additional honors upon him. But as county after county spoke out, Geary soon found himself nowhere. Kven here in Cumberland, Ins own county, amhVcamca'Tlie of three to one, notwithstanding the JJt ra/iVa etlbrts to secure them to Gea ry. in the entire State, we sec it stated, he only secured eight delegates, liven Ben Wade, of Ohio, had more friends in the Convention than Geary. Not much wonder then that our military hero withdrew Ins name from the con spirator’s conclave. The vote he would I have received would have disgraced I even Geary. ’ * Our big Governor may make up ids ipind to one thing—he has got ail lie will he ever get from the Radicals.— They have used him, but they despise him, and at the end of his present term of office they will kick him aside. He has served their purpose, and they are now done with him, and never again -will he bo nominated for Governor or for *uyt llln ? else- Hans is “played out." KTKIUE.H KMVAItH ANARCHY The fear which the Radical conspira tors have of thg courts is strikingly il lustrated by the bill which they “ snak ed” through the Rump on Thursday, in less than three hours, to deprive the Su preme Court of authority to try any ca ses arising under the “Reconstruction They talk about the sanctity of ,aie—the law-. -< seal It'd, which they pa.- —\et they are continually striking down the law of laws-the or- panic law of the Government, the foun- r. dation principle of all law. The pas sage of the bill in question, at the time, in the manner, and for the purpose which it is to subserve, is a clear con- o, fession, on the part of the conspiiators, that the tenure of office law is unconsti tutional; that the “Reconstruction” laws are unconstitutional, and that the impeachment of the President, in the manner and for the purposes avowed, is unconstitutional as well as infamous. Can any man continue blind to these facts, and to the anarchy and bloody re volution which is impending in conse quence of these acts of the Radical lead ers? m-N. tli.f 1 Was there ever a body of conspirators more shameless, more reckless, or more impudent, than these men of the Rump? Think of it. They pass “reconstruc tion acts” which they knot r to be un constitutional, infamous and treason able. A majority of the Judges of the Supreme Court are Republicans—five of them were appointed by Mr. Lincoln — but yet the Rump conspirators feel and i knoic that these so-called “acts,” If brought to the test before the Supremo Court would, one and all of them, he pronounced unconstitutional and revo lutionary. They therefore snake through a hill depriving the Svpranr Court uf authority to try any cas*'*' arising under lh< “Reconstruction acts !” Tins i« evidence positive that the conspirators are fully aware that they have been “working outside the Constitution.” Now, we contend that iho-e conspira tors, in thus attempting to head off the Supreme Coiwt. have acknowledged the perjury and outrages they have com mitted, and they deserve and should receive a punishment commensurate with their crimes. Like the Jacobins of the French Revolution, they are gov erned by passion alone, and are blind ns bats to the sentiments of the people.— They are conspirators against the na tion, traitors and outlaws, whose impu dence and cowardly assaults upon our institutions have been too long submit ted to by a suffering people. Their present attempt to strip the Supreme Court of its jurisdiction, is so palpably revolutionary that no man who is hon est or who reveres his country can sanc tion it for a moment. There must be an end put to this treason, and it is the duty of the President to stop it at nil hazards. In discussing the tenure of office bill, before its passage by the Rump Senate, Radical senator Sherman said ho “could not conceive a case” where a Cabinet minister would attempt to hold on to Ids office after his chief had ex pressed a desire for Ids removal, and added: “I think that no gentleman, Ho man with any sense of honor, would hold a position as a Cabinet officer after his chief desired his removal, and thero ! fore the slightest intimation on the part of the President would always secure the resignation of a Cabinet officer.”— The case which Mr. Sherman could not conceive, actually occurred, however.— Edwin M. Stanton proved himself to he “no gentleman,” and a man without “any some of honor.” U now remains 1 to he seen whether Mr. Sherman (as a Judge of the court which is to try the President» will cast Ids vote against the President lor (hairing to rid himself of | that ungentlenianly and dishon'orahlo 1 creature. hi the IF. S. Senate, recently, Mi*. Conklin presented a petition from j-everal hundred negroes of (icorgia, set ting forth tlmt they are out of money and almost starving. They ask (Jon gross lo appropriate one hundred dol lars for each nig. Mr. Sumnor, after the petition had been re id, said he ■ 11 hoped the prayer of these poor colored ! men would he granted without a mo j ment’s delay.” The nigs have got their I $lOO each hy this time. White poor * men would he laughed at if they pro* 1 sumod to ask for money from the U. S. ‘ Treasury, hut lazy vagabond negroes, I who have been doing nothing for the | last two years but attending Radical carouslas and “lections,” can not only ask hut receive the peoples* money with impunity. How long, oh, how long, must we submit lo this unblushing Radical villainy? The Rump lately excluded from his seat John Young Brown, Democratic member of Congress from Kentucky, because of a slight tincture of secession in the early stages of the war, but by no means so much as was exhibited by John A. Logan, Edwin M. Stanton, Sal mon P. Chase, and other prominent Radicals. This same Rump is now en gaged in passing a bill lo remove tlje disabilities of one Butler, a Radical member from Tennessee, who during the war was a captain in the rebel army and a “ red-hot rebel.” Such gross par tisan practices have disgusted every honest and decent man in the land. It is a wonderful and instructive fact that for three years the Radical leaders have refused to bring to trial and pun ishment Jefferson Davis, the man who labored to destroy the Union, but that, instead, they are now engaged in try ing President Johnson, the man who, for three years, has been endeavoring ‘ Ur restore the I’uionv *This * fact' is suffi cient to stamp treason upon the-brow of every Radical leader hi the Rump Con gress. When the vote on impeachment was taken in tho Rump House, Radical Senators stood by and clapped their hands whenever a member responded “aye.” These are tho creatures who are to act ns judges andjurymen in the trial of tho President. Can—will—the people permit such mockery of law and justice'.’ “The Democratic Rebels of .Mississ ippi," says tho Tribune, “are preparing to defeat the new Constitution even be fore it is completed.” The Radical Rebels in Washington have been tramp ling on the old Constitution for seven years, and now propose to make a rope of it to hang the President, ’ Uascook Unpek Cunn.—OoH'Tml Gnint finds ; It necessary 10 keep ft vigilant upon the pro* i ivcdlnßS of General Hancock, In the Jailer la no doubt disunited at the rebutw* which he receives from luauhiunrteis.

Jiujm'rcr. is doubtless true that Gen. Han fecis “humiliated” and "disgust at receiving rebukes from such a consummate ass as Grant —a man who has no mind of his own, and who is the supple tool of a set of scoundrels and traitors. Hancock is a man of honor, hlvn.- It cock u umu of mind, a scholar, soldier, pa triot and gentleman. To bo compelled to obey the orders of a poor driveller who possesses neither of these qualities, is certainly calculated to disgust*’ him. But if he is disgusted,' the people are still more so, when they seen condemn ed, corrupt, treasonable, thieving, pie bald, negro-equality party attempting to place the illiterate and pusillanimous Grant in the chair once occupied by a Washington, a Jefferson, a Monroe, a Madison and a Jackson. Grant will feel the “disgust" of white men at the poll!*, hot him go on placing ignorant negroes in office. When the day of tri al com* 1 ' he nurd look to negroes for votes. ' Thirty-one darkies, twenty-eight “white tr:i«h" from the North and thir ty-three native vcaliawags, delegates to the Georgia Mack crook convention, re solved themselves Into a Radical nomi nating caucus on Saturday, and, after a stormy time, nominated a fed low named Bullock for governor. A majority of the white delegates roused to partici pate, and are terribly excited. Sambo begins to think lie can hold the “rib- bons” and drive the public eoaeh—un derorders from the Starehamhcr—about as well as anybody. r Bea.-( Bullet- and Judge Bing' hum, two of (lie " managers” in the im peachment Business. walked into the Senate, wc see it slated, arm-in-arm.— A short time ago. during a heated de bate in the House, Bingham branded Butler as a thief, and the Beast retorted by ending Bingham a murderer. They both spoke the, truth, but now wo sco the thief and murderer arm-in-arm.— God save the Commonwealth. Tin; Bump bill making a majority of the votes cast in the Southern States sufficient to ratify a" constitution,” in stead of a majority of the registered vo ters, lias become a law by lapse of time, without the President’s signature.— Constitutions, so-called, can now bo adopted by a minority of the people.— This is Radical, red-hot, Republican ism. Minority rule is the big card of Sumner, Wade, Stevens & Co. DssTW. W. Holden, the Radical-ne gro candidate for Governor of North Carolina, wanted Lincoln nssasinated in iwttj. He swallows the black dose now, however, and that covers a multi tude of sins. ,iohn Wilkes Booth, if now alive, uutl a convert to Undicul no groism, would certainly be made a Radical candidate for .something— probably one of Ren Wade’s Cabinet, At the Radical delegate election in Lancaster county, hist week, the words “ for impeachment” were printed upon the fluid Stevens’ faction tickets, but only two out of eight chosen stand upon tlie platform, and they succeeded only upon their own popularity. It is therefore argued that Thad Stevens and his measures are both killed in that re gion. Ax “ intelligent freedman, the Southern “Tetrarchios,” was i strutted by an agitator to vote undo: the name of Amos Cox—that being the name of a departed brother of color; but Sambo, slightly misunderstanding the name, somewhat astonished the election officers, on being asked who ho was, by replying •. “ A musk ox.” The only party In the country that hart practised repudiation is the Radical party of Pennsylvania, Gov. Curtin, State Treasurer Kemble and the Radical majority in the Legis lature of 1805, repudiated the coin in terest on the State bonds, and brought world-wide disgrace upon the Slate. Jfcf'fJcn. Grant’s name was 11 Hiram’ 1 up till the time ho was soul to the West Point Academy, when, by a blunder of the member of Congress who got him appointed, his name was put on record ns “Ulysses,” and the War Depart ment, although repeatedly solicited to do so, refused to make a correction. Stantox cost hundreds of poor sol diers their lives by refusing to exchange “sound men for skeletons.” Ho is now costing the country millions of dollars daily, by the ellorts of the Rump to keep him in office where he is not want" ed and to which lie has no right. ta&r The first day’s proceedings in the Rum]) Senate on the impeachment bu siness, witnessed three Radical Sena tors—Ron Wade, Zack Chandler and Sprague—beastly drunk. Truly it is a “high court of impeachment” that is to try the President. Tue Republicans of Louisiana, most- Jy^coniposecl-of-negroert-and-fl-few-YaTi* - kee carpet-bag adventurers, have nom inated a negro for Lieutenant Governor of the State. Won’t we shine in the eyes of European nations! The Democratic party will lose noth ing by the infamous course of the Radi cals in Congress. But the Radical par ty will suffer from it, every day of its miserable existence. Matters don’t look so cheerful for the Radicals at Washington just now, as they did a day or two since. Several Senators have promised a largo Repub lican funeral, if the President is brought to trial. George R.- Vickers lias been elected to till the vacancy caused by the rejec tion of Philip F, Thomas, os a Semitqr from Maryland.

In a public conversation in Ringo’s banking house, a sterling Union man put this question to him ; ” What do you honestly think was the real object on the piirt.of t.h oLe decaLG ov e r mnen l ?” n ’Bir,” said Grant “I have no doubt in t lie world that the sole object is the resto ration of the Union. I will say further, though, that I am a Democrat—every man in my regiment Is a Democrat—and whenever I shall be convinced that this war has for its object anything else than what I liave mentioned, or that the Gov ernment designs using its soldiers to exe cute the purposes of the abolitionists. I pledgeyou my word us u man and a soldier that! will not only resign my commiss ion, but will carry my sword to the oth er side ami cast my lot with that people.” A Radical paper says: “ The Tennessee prisons are so full that the Governor has been compelled to pardon two hundred petty thieves to get prison room.” What a commentary is this upon Radical “ re construction !” Three-fifths of the offices in South Caro llna will be filled by negroes. The Sec retary of Slate and probably the Lieuten ant Governor will be negroes.

Correspondence American Volunteer. Washington, D. c.. March H. 16Cd. What will be hereafter recognized ns the greatest Judicial trial of this age or nation, begun at the Capitol of the na tion on Friday last. It was the day fixed for the return of the summons issued to Andrew Johnson to appear at the Bar of the Senate and answer the charge of •• high crimes and misdemeanors’' which had been preferred against him by the House of Representatives, The day was dull and drizzly. The corodors and gal leries of the Senate were early crowded with an excited and expectant crowd, notwithstanding a limited number of tickets of admission had been issued.— These tickests wore large hud' cards, on which were inscribed; '‘lmpeachment of the President—Geo. G. Brown, Sergl.- at-Arms." For once the negroes were excluded from the galleiies, which were tilled wilh an array ofheatny and talent, such as has been seldom withered in our Legislative halls during the reign of radi calism. At one o'clock, the Chief Justice, clad in Ids robes of office, appeared and took I the chair. Soon afterwards the managers and members of, the House appeared.— The Chief Justice then directed the Ser geaut-al-Anns to call the accused, which he did, in a loud voice, follows; “Andrew Johnson, President of the United .Stales, appear and answer to the articles of impeaclunentexhibited against you by the House of Representatives of ihe United Slates." Messers Stanherry, Curtis and Nelson appeared for the President, and the for mer read the following plea : In the matter of the impeachment of Andrew Johnson, President of the Unit ed States. Mr. Chief-J iMico : i, Andrew John son, President of the United Slates, hav ing been served with a summons to ap pear before this honorable court, sitting as a court of impeachment, to answer ser lain articles of impeachment, found and pieseuled against me, by the honorable, the House of Representatives of the United Slates, do hereby enter my ap pe iranco by my counsel, Henry Stanber ry, Benj. R. Curtis, Jeremiah S. Black, William M. Hearts, ami A. R. Nelson, who have my warrant and authority therefore, and who are instructed by me to ask of this honorable Court for a rea sonable time for the preparation of my answer to said articles. After a careful ex amination of the articles of impeachment ami consultation with my counsel, I am satisfied that at least forty days will be necessary for the preparation of my an swer, and I respectfully ask that it lx* al lowed. Signed, A.ni>ui:\v Johnson The counsel also put in their own plea for forty days to prepare for trial, oiling precedents, referring lo the magnitude of the case, and the multitude of the issues involved, and alleging their inability to be ready for trial sooner. With his usual brutality, Bingham, Chairman of the managers on the part of the House, con tended that under the rule adopted by the ,Senato they should proceed to trial im mediately. Mr. Stanberry expressed his great surprise at the indecent haste of the managers. They sought to rush this trial through at railroad speed. They seemed to give it no more consideration 1 than a petty case in a police court. The Senate retired to consult on the question, ami when they returned they stated that the motion of the President’s counsel for forty days delay’ had been overruled, and that the case would proceed on Monday, the 23d inst. Beast Butler took it upon himself to de liver a violent political harrangue against the President, calling upon Senators to do their duty and depose a faithless Pres ident. He was followed in a mild but caustic rebuke from Judge Kelson of Tennessee, one of the President’s coun sel, who remarked that he had tried to divest his mind of the idea that this was a political squabble, as Butler seemed to think —that it was in reality a great Ju dicial investigation. The court finally adjourned to meet on Monday the 23d, when the case will be resumed. This first day’s proceedings clearly show the fact that the President’s fate has already been decided in the minds of the Jurors who arc to try him. Mr. Stan burry well said that they were hurrying along at railroad speed. That the man agers on the part of the House should de mand an instant trial, was no more than was lo be expected fiom the bitter ma lignity they had already manifested ; but that the .Senate should bo so far carried away by its feelings as to refuse the privi | lege which would have been accorded to the meanest thief in any court of justice, argues badly for the honesty, fairness and integrity of “ that high court of impeach ment.” Andrew Johnson has no mercy or justice to expect at their hands. They have already made up their minds to convict; and if the President is acquitted it will only be because the facts are so strongly against them that they dure not, before the civilized world, pronounce him guilty. The valiant Ben. Butler’s additional charge upon which the President is to Uo impeached before the bar of the Senate, of “high crimes and misdemeanors,” consists in bis alleged “scandalous and indecent attacks upon Congress” in vari ous speeches made by him since the 22d of February ISGG. Under what provision of Constitution or law, words, spoken in criticism of the conduct of the present Hump Congress, by the President or any other o/lleer of the Government, can be loitured into an impeachable offense, no one, perhaps; but Beast Butler and the Radical Hyenas who yelp in his track, can tell. But, admitting that the Presi dent has no right to abuse Congress, by what right does Congiess claim to abuse the President, as it lias done, with the most fiendish malignity, almost daily dining the last two years? If the Presi dent should be Impeached, upon Butler’s charge, for abusing Congress, have not the people a right to demand the im peachment of Congress for abusing the President? What’s sauce for the goose nhoukl Oc sauce for the gander? To an attentive observer, the scenes through which we arc now passing re semble very closely those of the French revolution. The language of old That! Stevns toward the Senate, the denunci ation of Andrew Johnson as a tyrant and a violator of the laws on the flimsiest | pretext by those who show themselves to I bo the most violent tyrants, and who I scout the Constitution as an absolute, worn out instrument. So alike are these 1 revolutionary scenes that wo can hardly realize the fact that we are not reading the history of the French Revolution.— But let the Radical conspirators go on.— Bo they remember that twenty-two of the leaders in the French revolution perished on the scaffold, soon after they : had decreed the death ot the King: Bo j they suppose they can ride the whirlwind or chain its fury, after they have once called it forth ? Let them take warning by the past. They have been traveling in the path which led to the guillotine in France. On that road there is a point, beyond which they dare not turn buck. The Star says: It is believed that the following are the main points in the line of defence now contemplated in behalf of the President, though, of course, it will be subject to farther modifications, ns cir cumstances may seem to or as .nounsel jnuy-suggesL: First. On appearing by counsel ou Fri day next, motion is to be made to have the hearing postponed until the first Monday in May. Falling in this, they will Second. Make a motion to quash the .articles of impeachment, on the ground that, if true, they do not constitute a high crime or misdemeanor. * Third. Exceptions will be taken to certain Senators, on the ground that they have prejudged the case, and that the Senate has already declared the Presi dent guilty of the main charges, by the passage of the resolution condemning the removal of Secretary Stanton, Fourth. Exceptions will be takeq to thejurisdiction of the court on the ground that it is not the Senate of the United States. Fifth. That the Tenure of Office bill cannot apply to the cause of Mr. Stanton, not only on account of the provho in the first section, but also on the ground that having been passed after Mr. Stanton’s appointment, it cannot be applied to his tenure of office without having a retro active effect, and becoming thereby HQ expoatfaoto Jaw. ■ FTTEH I Sixth.

Attempt to Steai. a Horse.— On Sat urday afternoon last a negro known ns 11 Bill,” who formerly lived in Carlisle, but wlm has lately been in tho service of Mr. MelCoe of Bloomfield, Perry County, arrived atThudium’a Hotel,mounted on a horse wliicl) ho offered to sell for 5175, After some bargaining he agreed to sell tlie horse to Mr. Sterner for SlOO. Mr. S. suspected that it was not all right, and said lie would leave the horse at the hotel feu’ a lew days. High Constable Crazier was called and Bill was placed in jail until Sir. McKee could bo heard from.— On Monday Mr. McKee arrived and said that lie told the negro that if lie was of fered 5175 for the horse, (which Bill had borrowed to visit Carlisle) ho should let him know, on his return, who made the oiler and perhaps lie would see him.— “ Bill" evidently intended to sell the horse and decamp witli tile funds. He contin j nos however to enjoy the hospitalities' of j Sheriff Thompson. Shade and Shade Trees. -Ah U is now near the season for ordering trees ami shrubbery, we would once more call the attention of our readers to UiiHsub juct, In the hope that ail will* give more attention to it than has been given here to fore, and set out some trees. If you do not gel them at a nursery, go in the Spring, to the woods and procure some fine varieties and put them out in front of your dwellings, or alongside of the street in front of your places. Get good cur- rant, rasborry and blackberry slips, take pains in-setting them out, and in a few years they will repay you ten times for your trouble. If you can’t get them from dealers, get tbemof your neighbors, plant them and have them growing. Trees or shrubs need but little care, and are not only an ornament to a place, but are yearly returning a large Income for the amount Invested. Cuke for Earache. —Take a small piece of cotton or wool, (wool from the head of the “ coming man” is the best,) make a depression in the center with the end of the linger, and fill it with as much ground pepper as will rest on a silver five cent piece, (provided you know what that ancient coin looked like when it was in use,) or the point of a small sized table knife, gather it into a ball and secure it so that the pepper will not get out, dip the ball into sweet oil and insert it into tlie ear, covering the latter with cotton or wool, and use a bandage to keep it in place. Immediate relief will be experi enced. and the application is so power less for harm that an infant will not be injured by it. Try it, ye sufferers from that most disagreeable and annoying dis ease. Horse Insurance, —On Tuesday, the Court confirmed the Charter of the “Cumberland Valley Horse Insurance Company of this county. The capital stock is !?of),000. The corporators are W. F.

The main office will be at Shipponsburg, with traveling agents throughout the valley. We wish the enterprise abundant success.

It will require about twenty minutes to cook It. Serve it up with egg sauce or rich drawn butter, This moat excellent fish is said to be very palatable when dressed in the manner stated. Just How to do it. —An exchange says:—lf you wish to keep your town from thriving, turn a cold shoulder to every young mechanic or beginner In business—kill him off if you can. Look up to every new comer with a scowl and discourage all you can 5 if that won’t de cry his work ; and go abroad for wares of his kind rather than glyo him your mon ey. Last but not least refuse to patron ize the village paper. “ Then go to seed.” There is no more effectual way to retard the growth of a town than this.
