A CONVENTION «!’ CONSIUKAIOUS.
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

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

During tin* sittings ol' tin* conspira
tor's Convention at Philadelphia, Inst
week. 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

is doubtless true that Gen. Han
fecis “humiliated” and "disgust

still more so, when they seen condemn

At the Radical delegate election
in Lancaster county, hist week, the
words “ for impeachment” were printed

therefore argued that Thad Stevens and

Gen. Gkant ix 1801.—The Randolph
(Mo.) Citizen publishes some interesting
reminiscences of General Grant, one of
which wo copy below :
In the summer of 1801, Gen. Grant,
then Col. of the 21st Illinois regiment of
infantry, was stationed at Mexico, on the
North Missouri railroad, and had com
mand of the post. Ulysses the silent
was then Ulysses the garrulous, and em
braced every faimpportunity which came
in his way to express his sentiments and
opinions in regard to political affairs.—
One of these declarations we distinctly
remember. 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

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. That Mr. Stanton was functus

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. Sadler, Simpson K. Donavin and
John Johnston. The stock is all ta
ken, and the association expects to get
to work at once. The gentlemen who
have it in charge arc energetic, of good
business capacity and have had consider
able experience in Ibis line of business.
The main office will be at Shipponsburg,
with traveling agents throughout the
valley. We wish the enterprise abundant
success.
How to Cook Shad.— The fresh shad
season is near at hand, and in order that
oar lady readers may be enabled to do
ample justice to that excellent fish, w©
publish the following method of boiling
their finny victims: Clean the shad,
wash and wipe it, flour it well, wrap
it in a cloth and place it in a largo
vessel of boiling water with a great deal
of salt. 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.
SOLDIERS* ORPHANS CONUERT. —The

HI’UINO Weather.— Tlie delightful
Spring weather wo have enjoyed for. the
past week has taken the snow away with
a rush. Wo must look for some rough
weather, of course, but the indications
point to an early Spring. Wo must have
bad roads too, for a month or six weeks
hut the .sooner- tho frost is out of the
ground, the sooner the roads will become
passable. After this long and hard win
ter, all will join in tho aspirations of the
poet:
“ Come gentle Spring, ctlierlid nillduess come.' -
A Puff. Our enterprising friend
Fred Yolmer, desires us to inform his
friends and the public generally, that In
his new location, under the Corman
House, he is prepared to supply oysters

mer season will furnish all seasonable
luxuries! If any body can do it, Fred
can.
To Sportsmen.—A bill has been Intro
duced in the Senate for tlie better preser
vation of partridges in this State. Il p| ( ,-
vides that the time for shooting them
should after the passage of this ae: l»*
from the 20th of December. Many poi
sons can be given why this law shoal I
be passed, for unless the birds are protect
ed by some law of this kind, and the tine
of twenty-five dollars for the violation of
this net be imposed, the country will soon
bo without game of this kind.
Cam, Declined. —Wo learn that tin?
Rev. Mr. HarrisiofTowandn, baadecliiml
the call tendered him by the Second
Presbyterian Church of this place. Hi
friends in To wand a have manifested m.
much regret at, and opposition to his re
moval that ho has deemed it his duty,
under the circumstances, to remain hi hi*,

St. Patrick’s Day.—Tuesday was St.
Patrick’s day—tho natal day of Ireland's
patron saint. Of course it was com
memorated with the proper spirit ami
enthusiasm by tho “ sons of Erin” every
where. There was no general celebration
in this vicinity, but wo noticed a number
“a-wearing of the green.”
A Freshet.—The water in the Susque
hanna is very high—some fifteen feel
aboye low water mark, and apprehen.
sions are entertained that there will bo a
regular freshet. Considerable alarm al
ready exists amongst the dwellers on
Front street, Harrisburg.
Religious.—Rev. J. G. M. Swenglo of
the central Pennsylvania conference of
tho Evangelical Association will preach
in tho lower story of Rheem’s Hall on
next Sabbath, at 11 o’clock a. m. and 7
r. m. and every Sabbath thereafter until
further notice. The public are cordially
invited to attend.
Salt in Kerosene Lamps.—lt is said
that adding to coal oil one-fourth its
weight of common salt in the kerosene
lamp makes the light much more bril
liant and clear, keeps the wick clean,
and prevents smoking.
Improvement. —Messrs. Gardner &
Co, have begun laying the foundation for
the large addition to their machine shop,
on Bedford Street. It will be quite an
exteusivo improvement.
The South Mountain Railroad.—
We see it stated that the contract for
building the South Mountain Bail-road,
from this point to Pine Grove Iron
Works, has been awarded to J. V. Cris
well, of Harrisburg. We trust this may
not prove another “ false alarm. ”
