IC.imCAI, I'lll.UT,
Three years of fuilurc to restore the (
Union, which under their own theory
of administration was unbroken dur
ing the war, have caused a general be
lief that the Kepnhlioan party is not ,
aide to elieet that desired object. They j
know how to tear d-aui and destroy, j
but not how t(* rebuild and re-tore. —
Tni- fact ho- been .-o oh-arly 'L'n n-ir.,-
t'd bv the -lent logic *>i rveiu- that
manv of tiledr leading men eonie-- their
uiilure. but excu-e it on the ground that
the ivumeratic party eould have done
n-' i'oitev. Now the dllliculty with the
Republican party is just this, that they
started wrong, and every wrong step
h:i> rendered -nine additional wrong
ne»v—ary. If at the close of the war

upon a policy of force ami coercion.—
That first fatal stop has made it iuve~-
-ary for them to follow to it- utmost
re-nlt- a policy from which the more
conservative of thorn would haverunk
with horror tlm-o year-am*. < »f course,
when the Republican party inaugurated

Tlie Jacobin papers inform us that
lien. Grant is very anxious that the
President should lie impeached, and is
using his influence in that direction.—
if this is true, then Grant should bo
placed under arrest at once, tried by a
milPnry eeurl, and kicked out of office.
\ a itiUeer a-ho encourages and gives
.■■■uii.emmeo to a conspiracy against ids
eommamlerdn-t'hiel, is a sorry speci
men of humanity, and deserves as lie
will certainly receive, the scorn of all
honorable men. Grant personally, is a
| poor, weak creature —a tool in the hands
i e'f political gamblers and sharpers. But
the high military position lie holds, and
the vast patronage ho wields, gives him
a power equal to any man connected
with the Government. And this pa
tronage and power, we are 'old, are lin
ing u.-ed in the interest of theeonspira
tors amLngainst tiro President! Yi'ho
hut Grant could lie thus base'.’ Xo
doubt the great smoker feels sore. The
President, backed by the testimony of
hi- entire cabinet, stamped Grant not
only a dissembler but a falsifier. He
wears the brandfalsehood" on his
brow, and that brand, deep and indolli
ble, was placed there by Andrew John
son, President of the Vidled States. A
man tints stigmatized, should he careful
not to attract the attention of the pub
lic. Policy, if nothing else, should in
duce him not again to meddle with
subjects and matters about which lie
knows nothing, and lias no right to
meddle. But Grant, as we have said,
is a weak creature, and being tickled
; with the nomination tendered him by
the conspirators for President, lie is
ivilling to lie b*d by the nose by them,
and to do their bidding. Next Novem
ber if mo, betore. this little humbug.
Gram, will lie made aeijuainted with
tlie view- the people entertain of him
ami li:s doings. The Pr.,-idjnt having
branded imp a fal.-if.er. the people will
place their seal of condemnation upon
him by a vote that will serve as a cau
tion to all pretenders iike him.
A, Kepnbllemt T. #•- fionnior on General
Grant.
In the United States testate, May, Gtb,
IS'3-. iu reply to Mr. Sherman, of Ohio,
speaking of the battle of Pittsburg land
ing. Rev, Jas. Harlan. Senator from
lowa, said ;
•• From all that I can Yfe*r.n on the sub
ject. I do not think that General Grant is
‘fit to command a great army iu the field.
“ The lowa troop* have been in battle
repeatedly tinder command of General ,
Grant. They have no confidence in his
capacity and*fitness for the high position
he nr>\v holds. They regard him as the
author of the usele*s daughter of many
hundreds of their brave comrades in
arms. It is not necessary, nor is it right,
to compel them to serve under him. The
speech of the Senator from Ohio might,
it'unnoticed, induce those in authority to
continue him in tlie field.
■* I understand he has been virtually
suspended, that he now really has no com
mand, that each division ami army corps
of the Western Department is under the
command of another General and the
whole under the command of General
Halleck ; that General Grant is second in
command of the whole, which is, of
course, merely nominal, in my opinion
he ought not to have multiplied thou
sands of men placed in his hands after
the record he has made. And the only
practical tendency of that part of the
speech of the senator from Ohio, would
be to induce the President to assign him
an ac> ive_c»>mmand. This 1 cannot con
sent to have done in the presence of my
countrymen, tr.aimed.tuid slaughtered.as

competency. 3 say this not on account,
nf miv publicor private grievance of a
personal nature. • v ' if my con
victions are correct it would be a crime
for me to remain silent, ami suffer influ
ences in originate in the .Senate chamber
which may result in re-toringa General
loan unlive command whom I, and the
; people I in part t, de»*m un wor
• thy of such a ft hst.
nd he -hull not uiih my consent, be
continued in e« inunind. There is noth
im: Hi In- Jii.f'"-* - I<.-nt« in J ust;fy a further
trial i.f his military skill. At Helrnont
he committed an egregious and unpar
donable military hhimier. wlmh resulted
in almor-t annihilating an loua regiment.
At Fort DinicNmi, the right wing of
our army. which was under hF immedi
ate command, was i!**l‘*hl<ml and driven
hack several mil'*- from the enemy’s
works. The battle wild rv-lored hy (ien.
Smith, the enemy ’s wm ks were stormed,
and thusa victory was finally won. And*
mj on the halllt-Vield ot Shiloh, his army
wua completely surprised as 1 believe,
from all the ’fact* I ean procure, on
Sunday, and nothing hut the stubborn
bravery of die men flighting by regi
ments and brigades saved the army from
utter deMrm lion. The battle was uher
ward restored a
ducted hy General
liuell ami other Generals, who came on
the held during-the evening and night,
and our forces ultimately succeeded in
completely routing the enemy. Now,
sir, with such a record, those who con
tinue General grant in an active com
mand, will, in my opinion, carry on their
skirls the blood of thousands of their
slaughtered countrymen. With my ■con
victions, I can neither do it myself, nor
silently permit others to do it. —[See
Congressional Globe; 2d Session, Thirty
seventh Congress, pages 2,03 d, and 2,037.
Was not Senator Harlan right? Did
not his misgivings come true? Do not
those who continued Genl. Grant in ac
tive Command crimson their skirts with
the blood of thousands and hundreds of
thousands of their slaughtered country
men. Read the history of the reckless,
cruel, unpardonable and bnjtul slaughter
of fifty thousand of our countrymen
in the. battle of the Wilderness! so
great was that reckless slaughter of North
ern soldiers, that it has been truly said
“ Grant entered Jtichmond over n bridge
o/ human bone*.”
Verily the prediction of .Senator Harlan
was fearfully verified.
The Methodist Conference, now in
session at Brooklyn, haveing denounced
use of tobacco in any form,has declared the
in a series of resolutions, in favor of im
peaching President Johnson, who uses
no tobacco, and of electing to the next
Presidency General Grant, who is said
to smoke.
iteiy* Xo one can he admitted to the
United* States Senate jC'hamber, during
the Impeachment trial, without a ticket!
As quite a number of women of very
questionable character have been present,
during the trial, it is surmised that, the
.Radical officials who deal out tiie tickets
an* not very choice in the company they
keep.
i&r The party in power on
the Abolition hobby. They 'have abol
ished the white man's happiness—abol
ished the Constitution—abolished nine
Slates—ami are now abolishing the Pres
ident. The next step will be to abolish
themselves.
Mo horse thief, murderer or house
breaker over had more fear of the law
than the present Radical rump Congress.
Hence their attempts to deprive the
United Slates Supremo Court of all juris
diction.

nrnipil—hoisted lam up the stairs, to Cap
tain Hatch's room. A hundred persons
witnessed this scene, and loud ami many
were the expressions uttered of censure
and of disgust at the spectacle. About
12 o’clock that night Grant got musical,
and an orderly wua despatched tor the
brigade baud to come and serenade him.
The bund soon put in an appearance,
and were about to commence playing,
when Mr. Bedard and Mr. Ltuisden, the
proprietors ol the hotel, attempted to stop
them; but, on word being taken to Gen.
Grant of the obstruction of the anisic, he,
with drunken and profane indecency,
declared that lie was commander of the
post, and lie would have the band play
when and where he desired. .So the
bund proceeded to the hull, outside the
room, where the General was rollicking'
in his drunkenness, and for a half-hour
played to drown the uproar of the hell
within. A month later to a day theaamo
steamer was lh« scene of another gorge
ous drunk, upon another occasion of a
“ Uag-of-truce” visit to Columbus, when
Grant became so wretchedly dnmk that
his triemls put him to bed; and kept the
boat in tlie river until he became sober
enough to be taken home. But of his
mostdisastrousspree—thatat Fort Bond

If possible to induce the Chicago Tribune
to tell the truth I would be glad to have
Governor Brosa relate what he saw and
what he said of the scene when General
Grunt landed from bis llug-of truce visit
to Columbus, just after the Buttle of Bel

that he fell n half-dozen times in going
up the levee from the wharf-boat, ami
the united ellbrts of Captains Hillyer and
Lagow were insullicient to keep him on

what the fat writer of the same paper

The counsel for President Johnson, .
Bays the Daily Lett’s, will not have to go
far to find evidence to prove that the
conspirators, who have impeached the

i speech of Thaddeus Slovene on the Ala

',v ono who desires to form a candid
judgment with regard to tho legality of
the act of the bogus Congress, which has
staked the very existence of tho Radical
party ujion the etVort to drive the Presi
dent from his seat:
Thov iot the bill lay on (he fnbleovcr

and pa** it before the vole of Alabama

only a minority of registered voters voted
for the constitution ; heneeit is that wo

belligerent by all the sovereign nations

would inform my learned friends from

of being outside of the Constitution, 1-do |
not mean that the constitution docs not

amount of inqiiartesed stupidity in the
rank and file of their party as to lead
them to believe that they will be sus

overthrow the Federal government.—

Correspondence American Volunteer.
Washington, D. C., April 18C3.
The Impeachment trial hag “ dragged
i( 9 slow length along” through one entire
week, and la beginning to be voted a ter
rible bore by the spectators in the galler
ies The brilliant assembly which nat
through Butler’s dull ami dry harrnhgue
of three hours, on Monday, lias dwindled
down to a dozen or bo members of the.
House ami a gallery half full of auditors.
The fervid eloquence and the damaging
testimony which so many looked for on
the part of the managers have failed to
*• colne to time.” The trial has not only
been intolerably dull, but so far as the
ci-e of the managers is concerned, has
proved a signal lailurc. They begin to
feel the weakness of their cause, and arc

is'timl the safely and veiy existence of
the Republican parly-demands the con
vietion ami removal of the President.-
Whether all the Radical Senators, who

lo render a verdict in accordance with
the evidence, will yield to this pressure,
remains lo be seen. The prevailing opin
ion seems to be that their will be at U*a»t.
ton or a dozen of thorn who will have some
icuard for their oaths and their legal
reputation when they conic to makeup
their verdict. 'These, added to the lleiu
oeralii- vote, will be enough to acquit.
Roller's opening speech occupied the
whole of Monday's session. On Tuesday
the testimony of several membersol o<m
-ress was introduced in regard !» what
Transpired at the interview between (ten.
Thomas and Stanton mi the occasion ol
the latter demanding possession n( the
War olllee. When delegate Hnrlcigh
was on the stand, a question arose a* to
th c admissibility of evidence. 'I he
t'hief Justice decided thc question against
(he President's counsel, but the inU*n»er
Radicals declined lo acknowledge his
right to decide at nil, evidently believing
him to bo too fair a man lo serve there
villainous purposes. Senator, Drake,
of Missouri, arose in hot haste and
submitted that the rldef-Justice was
not competent to decide this tu
nny other point without submitting
the question to the Senate. A murmur
of excitement van around the lloor ami
galleries. Mr. Drake’s manner and tones
were too arrogant and ofiensive not to
displease even some of the extreme Radi
cal Senators who were in accord with
him in raising the Rsue. The roponso
of Chief-Justice t'ha-e was distinct and
calm. He had come to the conclusion
that it was the duty of the (‘hict-Jlistice
to decide prinfarily upon questions of
law ami evidence, which di vision might
bo subject to an appeal by a member of
the court lo the Senate. Rutler, in be
half of the managers, then rose, ami in u
speech p( some Jenght expressed the
opinion of tho managers. Ho was suc
ceeded by Mr. Bingham ami Mr. Bout
well, both of whom took substantially
the same ground that Butler had assum
ed, that either the managers ortho Presi
dent's counsel should at any time have
tlie right to appeal lo the Senate, Tho
question became reduced to this: Shall
; the decisions of the Chief-Justice stand
1 until a vote upon them by the Senate is
. ■ demanded by a Senator, or shall the
1 managers and the President’s counsel, as
1 well as any member of the Senate, bo
j competent to appeal to such a vote. Mr.
1 Drake wanted a vole by the Senate taken
on this vital question. He was piocecd-
I mg, when Keverdy Johnson called him
to order under the rules. He insisted un
til the Chief-Justice was compelled twice
to peremptorily call him loordcr. A mo*
i lion by Senator Wilson that the Senate
should retire for consultation upon-the
question raised was then put to thocourt.
‘ The vans and nays were u lie, twenty-live
Senators voting in the affirmative and
1 twenty-five in the negative. Tho Chief-
Justice announced the result and .said:
“ Tho Chief-Justice votes In the affirma
’ tU'e ; the Court will retire.”
Taking tho bit In his teeth, the Chief-
Justice asserted, by this casting vote, bis
right as judge and presiding officer lo
some voice in the proceedings of the high
court of impeachment, which, as it seem
ed Radical Senators were disposed to de
ny him. Tho court instantly broke up
and retired to the reception room. There,
as soon as the Chief*Justice Had called it
to order, .Senator Howard initiated a lem
pestuoun discussion. The Chief-Justice,
Mr. Howard went on to say, had, in bis
judgement, no right lo vote or decide
upon any question or rule whatever
which might arise in the course of the
trial, lie had no right to the casting
vote which had sent the Senate into se
cret consultation. The Chief-Justice had,
in votingupon the motion Lo retire, com
mitted a grave error. It was an assump
tion of power which did not belong to
him. Senators Sumner and Drake fol
lowed. Sumner went into a long histo
rical rr.sit/nc, to prove that the function of
the Chiel-Junlice as presiding olhcei' of
the Senate sitting as a high court of im
peachment was merely to preside and
preserve order. Drake, partially apolo
gizing for his language in the Senate
Chamber, and expressing high respect
for the Chief-Justice, nevertheless could
not admit the right of the latter to a voice
the proceedings. Not being a member
:of that body, but being simply called in
i to preside over it, sitting as a court, he
j had not even the right oi the President
; of the Senate lo a casting vote, and any
decision upon any point should he decid
ed, not l>y the Chief-Justice, hut by tiie
Senate. Aggiieved and astonished as lie
may well have been by these assaults,
Chief-Justice Chase here took occasion to
I enter his protest. Pie .spoke with digni
-1 ty and firmness, reiterating his opinion,
| already expressed, of his duty as the ofll
j eer selected in the Constitution to preside
I* over llie Senate during the trial of im
| peachinciil. If, lie said at last, the po>i-
I lion of Senators who had spoken should
i be sustained, the Chief-Justice was a
J mere cypher in the Senate Chamber, and
I there could be no use in this remaining
I in his scat. This rebuke caused a flutter
among the Radical Senators, and some
of them became frightened lest the Chief-
Justice, might Indeed, if the pending pro
gramme should be carried out to the let
ter, choose not to remain a puppet for the
high court oflmpeuchmetil to gaze upon.
Senator Hendricks spoke in favor of the
Chief-Justice’s .claims, and of their pro
priety. In his'opinion, lie ought to be
seated over the court for the purpose of
giving liis advice and counsel to the Se
nate, with the power to rule upon legal
questions, subject to an appeal to the Sen
ate. Mr. Dixon also defended the posi
tion of the Chief-Justice, and said, in ef
fect, that the attempt by Senators How
ard and Drake to gag that officer was an
offensive ns Thad. Stevens’s threat that
no Senator would dare to vote Lo acquit
the President, or as the course of intimi
dation pursued by Forney in his news
papers. Cameron, Colliding, and other
Radicals spoke us enthusiastically as had
their predecessors, and Sumner finally
offered a resolution declaring that the.
Chief-Justice had no voice in the proced
ings of Hie court. This resolution was
defeated by a vote of 31 to 19. Henderson,
of Missouri, forthwith presented an addi
tional rule for tlie consideration of the
court. This rule, which provides precise
ly what the Chief-Justice insisted upon,
and what the managers on the partmf the
House and the Radicals of the Senate
had been talking against, was adopted by
pretty nearly as strong a vote us that
whlcli rejected Sumner's resolution.—-
During the debate now closed, the more
conservative Republican Senators, such
i ns Fessenden, Grimes, Trumbull, ami
Sprague, sat in the background. Trum
bull did once arise, and in response to
Roseoe Coukiing, who brought up sever
al precedents to show that the Chief-Jus
tice ought not to be allowed the privileg
es demanded for him, denounced Mr.
Conkling’s precedents as no precedents
at nil, exposing them in detale to prove
his assertion. The result of the discuss
-1 ion is properly regarded as a strong con
servative triumph, and the Radicals were
much depressed by it as they returned to
the Senate Chamber, where it was an
nounced.
On ’ Wednesday, after the reading of
the Journal had been concluded, Sum
ner rose and submitted a resolution de
• daring that the Chief Justice' had no
right to vote yesterday on the.question of
I retiring for consultation, and'ho (Sum
ner) desired the Journal corrected accord

between die President ami himself m re-
Kl u*d to the disposition of the troops in
and around the Capitol. The lollowiiig
eslrael will siiow how liiyhhl crmiuwl
die President’s conversation was; ihe
President said : “ Am I to. understand

cannot give an order to die army except
through die General, of the Army or
through General Grant." and 1 replied
that such was my impression, ami that*
that was die impression of the officers of
tho army generally. I said further, that
when (lie order was issued some discus
sion ensued relative to its construction
and die duty of olllcers under it, and sev
eral lawyers were consulted about it ami

by tho orders, whether they were consti
ludonal or unconstitutional. The Presi
dent road tho order, and said it was " not
in conformity with the Constitution of

The prosecution made nothing out of
this evidence, for it confined the Presi
dent ton more expression of opinion, mid
I did not convoy an intimation that Gen.
Emory was requested to act otherwise
than in conformity with the law and or

The evidence on Friday uud to-day waa

President in bis speech at the White

Dkath ok Dr. Johnson. —Wo regret
to record the death of llev. Herman M.
Johnson, D. IX, L. X/. D., President of
Dickinson College, who departed this
life, after a brief illness, on Sabbath
morning last. Dr. Johnson was a gradu
ate of Wesleyan University, Middletown,
Conn., and besides other important po
sitions as an educator, tilled a chair in St.
Charles College, Missouri; and afterward
that of AnGient Languages in Ohio Wes
leyan University, Delaware, Ohio, from
which place lie was called to the profes
sorship of Kngllsh Language in Dickin
son College, which position he filled with
signal ability for ten years, when he was
elected President of the College.
He was a gentleman of fine scholarly
attainments, a zealous and successful in
structor, as well as a forcible and elo
quent preacher of the Gospel. His sud
den death cast a gloom over the entire
community, and his loss will be severely
felt and sincerely mourned not only by
the stricken family and a large circle of
sympathizing friends but by the, institu
tion of which he was the head and* the
religious denomination with which he
was connected. Truly may it be said of
one who had labored so long and faith
fully in the cause of education ; “ He has
gone to liis rest, and his works do follow
him.’’

some day we are startled to find our
selves grown old! It is curious to see
wlmt different estimates people put on
old age at different periods of their own
lives. To the youth iu his teens, the
man of middle ago appears quite anti
quated, but when he himself arrives at
forty years ho can scarce believe he is no
longer young, and is astonished to seoso
many who were but infants the other
day, now jostling him as full grown
men in the race of life. Baiti on© gentle
men to another In ourhearing; “ What
has become of all the old men ? When
you and I were boys there were many

old men are. They'll tell you—and you
will find yourself among them !"
