WHO 18 THE LIAKT The Herald is well skilled in the use of the “stop thief’- cry, nnd whenever it attempts to perpetrate a bigger lie than usual, it begins. by bellowing “liar! liar! liar!” at the top of its voice. It was to be expected that our neigh bor, in connection with its illustrious co temporaries the Press and the Inquirer, Would be thrown into a terrific state of excitement, by the proceedings of (he soldiers’ moetingat the Garrison, which we published week before last; but we scarcely expected that even the Herald would have the shamelessness to give a flat denial to the whole thing, when the evidence of its untruthfulness could so easily be obtained. It denies that any such meeting was held, that any resolu tions were adopted, that anybody was authorized to publish them in the Car lisle papers; and it relies upon the testi mony of one John Victor Marr, who was not at the meeting, and who, on its own admission, had been discharged from the army and left the post, “after three years’ faithful service,” since the war closed no doubt. Let u= see what the Soldiers themselves say: CARD. We, the undersigned Soldiers IJ. s. Cavalry ser vice. now at Carlisle Barracks.

Final Adjournment.— The Penns ylvania Legislature adjourned sine die on Tuesday. They have passed the in famous Registry law,(to which we make reference elsewhere,) voted Mr Shugert out of his seal, in the Senate and voted about $5,000,000 of the peo ple’s money out of the Treasury. They commenced tire session with a great flourish of trumpets over retrenchment and reform, but their actions show that this has been the most reckless of all profligate legislatures that has ever sat at Harrisburg, The Rads seem to have acted under the impression that this was the last of their rule in this State, and accordingly they increased salaries’ made places for favorites and voted' away money hy the wholesale. So out rageously did they squander money that one of their party, more honest than the rest, stated on the floor of the House that they had voted away more money than the receipts would, he, as estimated by the State Treasurer. Fel low citizens, this is Radical manage ment—haven’t you nearly got enough of it? s Let them Impeach Him ip They Dare.—New Hampshire shows a Dem ocratic gain of nearly a thousand : Con necticut doubles last year’s majority : Michigan repudiates Radicalism and ISegro Suffrage by more than ten thou sand ; and the municipal and town elec tions iu every Northern State show a similar tide of political feeling. Now let the Radical usurpers of Congress im peach Andrew Johnson, and be damned “ the 0W hU !lt Puritan theology M K e d . amn '” 1 ir 'hoy Co, iney 11 bo damned If they don’t.” Old pappy Grant, -who has been furnishing disquisitions for the New York Ledger upon the early life and miraculous performances of his hopeful, son Ulysses, or Hiram, or Hiram Simp son, has suddenly stopped writing. He left off at a very important point in Ulysses’ history—when he (Ulysses) -was astride of a mule in a circus, with a large monkey behind him, the mule ■ and riders flying around the ring at lightning speed. Next November the people will un-mule Ulysses and the monkey. tut UIIUWI. ur TIUEK*. Forney’s Press, nnd indeed most of the leading Jacobin journals, appear determined to encourage and foment a war of races in the South. The direct appeals that are made to the ignorant blacks to “ rally for their rights,” and to insist upon “equality,” means mis chief. Tho fact that tho blacks are per mitted and encouraged to posses, aimsj and that a white man is not allowed the use of a pen-knife, is of itself a broad hint to the negroes to use their arms whenever they feel aggrieved. Ihe many terrible and revolting outrages committed by the negroes, and the sys tematic efforts of the Radical journals to belittle and palliate these outrages, is evidence of sympathy on the part ol white conspirators, and at the same time an incentive to the negroes to con tinue the outrages they have com menced. Brutal negroes, fresh from tho rice and tobacco fields, are the men selected to patcli up Constitutions for tlie South, and these Constitutions, framed and dictated at Washington, are so outrageously infamous, so partial to negroes and oppres-ive upon the whites, as to make them a burthen unbearable. Negro children are to be forced into public schools with white children; and the churches, the. jury-box, theatres, cars and hotels are required to he thrown open to negroes. And for the purpose of enforcing and supporting these infa j mies, a Freedman’s Bureau and a stand | ing army are to be kept up at millions I of dollars a month for the exclusive use I nnd benefit of negroes. [ These are some of the measures the Radical journals of the North defend and approve. Are they not intended to exasperate the Whites of the South to resistance? And because, occasionally, some’ one of the vile creatures who are hissing on the negroes nnd encouraging them in their insolence and violence, is throttled nnd perchance killed, a howl goes up from the throat of every “loyal” tiger in the North, and retaliation is at once suggested. to the negroes. Let a negro commit a murder or a hundred murders) and the Kadical papers can find plenty of excuses, hut when a white man, persecuted and almost crazy mad under negro insolence and persecution, turns upon ids tormentor and strikes him down, a demand for his blood is at once made. \V hat does all this mean ? Do these fools of a condemned Radical party sup pose that the white men ol our country will remain quiet and see ten States placed in the keeping of ignorant ne groes, and the white men of those States reduced to slavery? Are they so blind as not to see that the attempt to place the brutal’negro over the white man will not be submitted to, or are they anxious to see a war of races ? Let these scoundrels beware! Should such a war take place one race must go under, and it is not difficult to predict what race that will lie. Nor will it be the negroes alone who will suffer, should this threat ened collision of races iiappen; their .whiteaiders and abettors—tho men who hissed the negroes on to their destruc tion-will be made to suffer first and most. Negro superiority and Yankee impudence will never he submitted to by tlte people of this country, and med -1 dlesome Radicals will find this out if 1 they persist in their present insane 1 course. McCorkle S&" The Carlisle I.Jerald attempts to make light of the proceedings of the sol diers’ meeting, held at the Carlisle Gar rison, and which wo published two weeks since. The Herald says “no such meeting ns published in the Volunteer wu» held.” This is a falsehood. ■Of course we were not present at the meet ing, but the tiirce soldiers who furnish ed us the proceedings were at it and par ticipated in it. We prefer to believe them rather than the Herald— a paper which, when it attempts to say anything severe, always resorts to downright ly ing. “Editors of their description” cannot and will not be believed against the testimony of the large body of sol diers who held the meeting; and it is a piece of impudence in the Herald to at tempt to ridicule and sneer at the sol-,, diers. We cun tell our-neighbor, too/ that in the event of a domestic difliculty in our country, the soldiers will be found with the people and against the scoundrels and usurpers, their aiders and abettors, who are now attempting to establish a despotism in our country. Ninety-nine out of every hundred of the soldiers are hostile to the conspirators, and the expression of the troops at our ganison was but the voice of nearly the entire army. Mark that, Mr. Herald. or the first time in the history of this country, thousands of negroes, anticipating a war of races, and alarmed at the prospects ahead in America, are eagerly applying to the colonization agents for passage to Liberia! There are more applicants than the society can accommodate with their existing means of transportation, and an application has been made to Congress to establish a line of steamers to Liberia. From every State of the South come hundreds on hundreds of eager applicants for a passage to the negro republic of Africa. This is the condition into which the ele gant, theoretical, drawing-room philan thropy of the Radical school has at length brought the negro. And to what a condition has it brought this tax-rid den country. .(!©“ In the Radical county of Alle gheny, says the Erie Observer , which gives from eight to ten thousand major ity for “ equal rights for all men,” a -negro named Vashon was last week re fused admission to the bar, on the sole ground that his skin is not white. The case lias been under argument for sev eral months, and the Radicals tried hard to get Vashon to withdraw his application, but he stood upon his dig nity as “a man and and a brother,” and utterly refused to make any compro mise. Thus we have another instance of the beautiful consistency of Radical ism-making the negro the ruling race in the South, and refusing him the com mon rights of citizens in the North! ttaT" The Herald thinks the action of “the boys in blue,” at the Garrison, in avowing their determination to sustain the Constitution aiid obey the orders of the Commander in Chief, is “a slander upon our American Soldiers.” What need the editors of the Herald care?— They both took mighty good care du ring the war to have no share in the tame of “ our American Soldiers.” A Registry Law. Whenever tho Radicals are satisfied < they caunotcommand a majority of the white freemen of this country at tho polls, they devise some scheme to pre vent a free ballot. Some obstruction U placed in tho way of tho citizen vet ting, in the hope that a few votes in every district may be lost to tho De mneracy. One of the methods of do ing this is hy the passage of very ob jectionable registry laws—which, in many instances, jnakingit a troublesome thing for tho citizen to qualify himself for the ballot. Thus far wo have es caped this hindrance to a free ballot; but our Kadicallegislaturo, fearing that their party may lose the State at the next election, last week passed a regis try law that will throw numerous ob structions in the way of voters, and at the same time prescribes a qualification not known to the Constitution. Tho opposition will of course expect to profit hy the obstacles \\ r hich they have by this act laid in the way of voters—es pecially workingmen and naturalized citizens. Wo print an abstract of the law us passed, as follows: Section I;— I That the assessors shall make lists oF voters annually, with ihelr residence, wheth er housekeepers or boarders; the occupation and name of employer. If working for another; whether native citizen vot.ng.on age. natural ized, or Laving declared intentions, expecting to vote on full papers, to be procured before elec tion. During the present year such list to be made out slxty-slx days after tho passage of the act; qualifications to bo then Inquired into before the Ist of September; meetings for roctlUcailon and placing additional names on the registry, to be held by the assessors during lour days, if neces sary, and ten days bef >ro the election. Section 2.—Duplicate copies of the registry lists to be made out; one copy to go to the comity Commissioners, tho other to be posted on tho door of tho house where the election Is to bo h tld prior to August Ist each year. Section 3.—Assessors. Inspectors and judges of election to attcud at places for holding elections on Saturday, the tenth day preceding Hie second ’ Tuesday of October, >o place names on the regis try not thereon, upon due proof of the right of the voter. At the election no person to be allowed to vole whose name is not on the list. Where a person has been omitted he may re quest a special meeting of the olllcers to decide ou his case; and all such claims may be heard nt the clectioa house on lliu.Saturday before the clectlou. Section L—Voters may he challenged nnd pul to proof, notwithstanding the fact that their names are not on the registry, and the matter be decided according to law. Naturalized voters must produce thetr certificate of naturalization, the election ofllcers to place the word “voted,” with dutenud placeofelection. Section s.—Registry papers to be sealed up af ter the election with other election papers. Section o.—Registry to be re-opened In years when there arc Presidential elections ten days before tho election, and names of voters omitted to bo placed thereon. Section 7.—At special elections tho registry to govern, but not toezclude citizens not registered who hove the right to vote according to law. Section 3.—Prescribes the oath of olllce for as sessors, inspectors and Judges of elections. Section 9.—On the petition of five or more citi zens, under oath setting forth reasons for believ ing that frauds wilt be practiced at an election, the Court of Common Pleas may appoint two persons as overseers of elections, one from each political parly, if the Inspectors belong to differ ent political parlies; where these olllcers arc both of the same party, tho overseers are both of the opposite party. The overseers to have a right to be present at tho election and to see what Is done, keep lists of voters, Ac. If said overseers are not allowed to perform theh duties, or are driven away by Intimidation, the whole poll of that election district or division to be thrown out. section 19.—1 f a district polls more voles than are registered, it shall bo prima facie evidence of fraud, and the whole vote may be rejected upon a contested election. Section II. —No court of the State to naturalize any foreigner within ton days of un election, un der penalty of mlsdemeanorlu theolflcer issuing the 1 naturalization certificate. Voting, or ai lemptlngto vote, on a fradulont certificate of naturalization, subjects tho party to imprison ment not exceeding three years, and tine not ex ceeding one thousand dollars. Section 12.—Issuing false receipts by a tax col lector, lino not less than one hundred dollars, Im prisonment not less than three months. Section 13.—At elections hereafter,’ polls toopen between 6 and 7 o’clock, a. ji. aud close at 6 i>, m " From Connecticut, this morning, we have by special correspondence, cheering news up to Sat urday—the day before the battle. New Iluvcn— tho Democratic stronghold—has been successful ly assaulted. That townlnst year gave the De mocracy 1,890 majority—more than carried tho State. This year it will poll, according to their own estimate, but, 2,250 votes for English. So much for a good registry law, and honest and fearless men to execute It. To-morrow we shall record the verdict.”— Forney's Press the day before Hie Cbmu'chcut election. “To-morrdw” arrived, and poor For ney’s hopes were dashed to the ground. The majority for English was nearly double what it was last year. “New Haven, the Democratic stronghold,” which Forney supposed had been “suc cessfully assaulted” by the conspirators, instead of giving its last year’s majority, 1,800, gave 2,853 for the gallant English. The hurricane has set in. Let Forney and all traitors like him stand from under. Thao Stevens’ Family Victimized. ’he Lnnsasler InteUinycnocrot the 11th inst., says that on Wednesday morn ing as that attractive colored female, familiury known as Mrs. Thaddeus Ste vens—the widow of the late Jacob Smith, colored barber of Harrisburg, and at present houakeeper and mistress of Old Thud-hud her pocket picket at the depot in Lancaster city. She states her loss to be as follows : SlOO In greenbacks, three Mexican silver dollars, one diamond breastpin, a safe key, u bunch of hous hold keys, and free pames over the rail • roads from Lancaster to Washington. — What is this country coming to when even she who presides over the house hold of Thaddeus Stevens is robbed in a railroad depot in the city of Lancaster.— Let Old Thud see to it that the military police which is to be adopted at Washing ton bo made general. A Candid Old Sinner. —ln a speech that old Thad. Stevens (who seems, as it were, to have stepped out of his grave,) made on the Alabama bill, on Saturday, he again hooted the idea that the Radi cal majority was acting inside of the Con stitution iu its dealings with the South ern States. He admitted that they were proceeding outside the Constitution and justified it on the ground that the Radi cals had conquered the Southern' States and had the ilghttodoastlicy pleased with them, to let them iu or keep them out of the Union, just os they saw proper ! Thad is a frank old sinner, at all events. He is always ready todo the devil’s work and don't deny it. Abuse of Catholics and Fokeion ers.—While making a speech in favor of the new registration law, now before the State Legislature, John Hickman made a most bitter assault upon Catholics ami Foreigners. He declared that a negro was belter than a Catholic, Irishman. On being interrupted by a Democrat, ho be- 1 came still more violent iu bis language, lauding the negro and denouncing Irish men and Germans. This is an exhibition of the spirit-whioli animates the leaders of the Radical party. Some of them try to conceal It, but the old virus of Know- Nothingism rankles in their veins and will show itself. I©* A bill is before Congress to com pel all the Sates to adopt negro suffrage wether they will or no ! It has been re ferred to a committee, —where it will sleep until after the Connecticut election, to be then called up and passed 1 Con gress has no power, under the Constitu tion, to dictate who shall vote In the States ’. and very little attention will any Democratic State pay to such a law, if en acted. But it only shows that the “ Rump” will not hesitate to do any thing to carry their points. J®* Ulysses and Benjamin have soi led their little differenceaboutthe” bot tled-up” business. Grant and Butler.— Sneak and Spoons 1 Par nobile frairum / ALABAMA. Both branches of the Hump havo passed a bill for the establishment of a “provisional government” for Ala bama, ■which, is, to say the least,aspect men of legislation which never had a precedent since the days of the Goths and Vandals. It Provides that the Radical candidates who were de feated at the late election for State offi cers shall take possession of the state government, and that the defeated Rad ical candidates for the Legislature shall assemble as a Legislature. This Legis lature is then to again submit to the people, for ratification or rejection, the “Constitution” which was rejected by the pcoplent the time th tt Radical candi dates (its own membership) werede feated. After theadoption of the “ con stitution,” it is to be submitted to the* Rump for approval, but not until the “ Legislature of the proposed State or ganization” (the defeated Radicals afor said) shall have ratified the Fourteenth amendment to the Constitution—the amendment which proposes to enforce "an equality of civil and political rights for the negroes in every State of the Union. This done, the negro State gov ernment can go on its way rejoicing. It will be perceived that the bill re cognizes the Radical candidates as hav ing been elected and the “constitution” as having been defeated, although both candidates and “ constitution” received the same number of votes and were both defeated under the “reconstruc tion’* acts. The submission of the “ constii ution” to the people a second time as a sufficient admission that the State nod legislative candidates romi nitccl to serve under it, in the event of its adoption, were not elected. The of fices for which they were candidates are not yet created, because the autho rity which proposed tu create them is as yet no authority at all, and will not be until adopted us an organic law by the people. Breaking Up of the North Caro lina Congo Convention. — A correspon dent writing from Raleigh, N. C., gives the following, us the closing scene of the Mongrel Convention of North Carolina: A Mr. Littlefield took the chair and gave out “Old John Brown lies a moul dering in the ground,” two lines at a time, and the whole congregation sang it after him. Then the whole concern advanced to tin? chair, singing and danc ing and shouting. They rung the llre bells while the constitution was being signed, till half the citizens turned out supposing the town was on fire, and broke up in an orgie impossible to de scribe, Among the features of the proposed oons-lilution are the following : That whiles and negroes shall he forced to attend the same schools. That whites and negroes shall be drill ed. together in the militia- probably whites officered by blacks. That white children are to he appren ticed to negroes. That marriages between whiter and blacks are to be legal. The worst criminals are being pardon ed out of the penitentiaries, that they may vote the Radical ticket. The Bogus Senator.—The Chum bersburg Repository is one of the most decided and influential Republican papers in the State. With Co'. A. K. McClure at its head, it could nut well be otherwise. But one-sided as it is, it does not seem to be soulless enough to endorse McConaughy, the* “bogus” Senator of the Adams and Franklin dis trict. In last week’s issue, in an arti cle on the retiring Senators, it given him this unceremonious kick: “I). McConaughy reached hisscut by deposing Mr. Duncan—who was returned elected by snnio -10 voles—ln a eon lest before a.Senate committee and as ho did ma owe tils seal to the people of the district, he bus been unuHimllvcurelul nol lo T«*present them. His withdrawal to private life will meet the hearty approval of those who voted lor hi m, and no man, we believe, ever lefi ihe Senate so little regretted by his associates." ' Judge Grier, about the only Demo crat left on the Supreme bench of the United States, says he is ashamed of the Court with which he is. identified. It evades the performance of a plain duty and shrinks from decisions which have a political bearing. The Supreme Court with ordinary courage, might have reliev ed tiie country long ago from many of Jts embarrassments and perhaps prevented the present sad condition of public affairs, by prompt decisions, which the Constitu tion meant it should do, and chiefly for which it was created. In the past eight years it has never settled a doubt nor set at rest a disturbed question until after the necessity had passed. TiieappointmentofGon. Hancock lo the commundof the division of the At lantic with headquarters at Washington, lias scared the cowardly conspirators be yond measure, and the Rump Senate has already passed a resolution demanding an explanation. We hope,the President may be able to reply, that he has station ed him there, with ample means, to watcli and squelch the “ traitors at the other end of tb eliue” as soon ns they com mit the first overt act of treisou. SOT “Thegreatest constitutional State trial of modern or ancient history,” as a Washington correspondent grandilo quently styles it—is degenerating into a small farce, less attractive even to the invagination of Radical Congressmen than Dan Rice’s circus; and Butler, the chief mountebank of the occasion, has not wit enough in his speeches to keep old Thad Stevens from dozing during the progress of the performance. Negko Delegates to Chicago.— John T. Johnson, the colored barber of the House of Representatives, has been elected one of the delegates to the Chi cago Convention by the Radicals of Washington. Another darkey, named Ellis, is to be the alternate. Still the Radicals are not in favor of social equal ity. Oh no 1 BSF* A oue-legged soldier at Harrisburg, who is a mechanic, has a likeness of Grant hanging in his shop, and every time the General commits an act show ing himself tho guilty tool of the Bump, the soldier makes a black murk on his face.

Judge Curtis, of Boston, made the openlug speech on the part of the defense. The galleries and floor of the Senate Chamber were crowded more deusely than on any previous occasion during the trial. During the reading of the Journal and the examination of the con cluding witnesseson the purtof tiie prose cution, Judge Curtis Sat as motionless as a Statue. Soon after Butler announced that their case was closed, Mr. Curtis arose, with a calm nud modest dignity, and addressed the Chief Justice and the Sedate. The scene reminded the older portion of his hearers of the days of Dan iel Webster. In the shape of the head and body, as well ns in his ponderous and deliberate manner of speaking, Judge Curtis is said closely to resemble the fa mous orator. During the whole of the session of Thursday and until af ter two o'clock on Friday, Judge Cur tis continued his unanswerable argu ment. There was no appeal in it to pas sion or prejudice, nothing but cool, un- i impassioned, unanswerable legal logic.— Saying at the outset that his only appeal would be the conscience and icasoii of the Senate, he conllned himself to the line he had marked out. The speech was tod compact and too closely connected to allow a synopsis to be given./ It was a synopsis in itself. He argued with over whelming force tlmceveii under the Ten ure of Ollico Bill Mr. Johnson was guilty of no uifeuiie in removing Stanton, be cause the case did not come within the provisions of the act; and that even if tlio provisions of the act did reach Stanton’s case, tiie law itself was unconstitutional, and dill violence to the practice of the governmenteversiiicu its formation. That even if it. were constitutional, the Presi dent was guilty of no offense, because he acted upon thohest advice lie could ob lain ; that he and his Cabinet believed that in obeying this Jaw they would vio late the Constitution they had sworn to support, and they chose rather to throw the case into the Courts and huvolt adju dicated by the proper authority. This, he contended, was with no criminal in tent, and without the criminal intent there can be no crime. Amongst his Cabinet counsellors who advised him that this law was unconstitutional, was Edwin M. Stanton, the very man who now claims to hold position under it. After Judge Curtis had concluded his masterly argument, General Thomas was called to the stand, and his testimony soon overthrew the theory of the prose cution that he and Johnson had conspired to take possession of the War ollice by force. So entirely did it overthrow the whole case of the managers that Butler and Stevens lost their tempers and be gan to rail at the Senate. The Senate decided to admit the whole of General Thomas’ testimony, a portion of which Butler had objected to, and wften the de cision was announced, Stevens petulant ly exclaimed : “ after that there is no use submitting any question to the Senate,” Notwithstanding the fact that the Sen ate is now sitting us a Court, and every Senator is specially and solemnly sworn to try the President upon the evidence that may be submitted, the Radicals are bringing all the arts of outside presure to bear übon such Senators as are 'supposed mhe weak-kneed. Radical newspapers, conventions, legislatures and caucuses mive treated it us a mere political body und the issue as a mere question of party expediency. Old Thud Stevens has de dared * “Let me see tbe recreant who dares to tread back upon hia steps and vote for acquittal. * * * * Point me out one who dares do it, and you show me one who dare be regarded as infamous by pos terity.” J l X ills is the sort of language Dantou and Robespierre addressed to the French Chamber when they cried out for the blood of new victims, and sought to over throw every safeguard of law and order. But we have arrived at a more serious stage in this business, shameless and outrageous as was the threat of Stevens. His lash was applied to the banks of Sen ators, as it had often been before, and re cently in regard to the admission of Ala bama ;. but the Tribune, hits gone a step farther, and holds the sword of Grunt sus pended over the Court, with a plain inti mation that be will drive them out of their seats as Cromwell did the Bump Parliament, unless they subscribe to his will. This canting Tribune, which af lects to be a champion of popular rights and of the largest liberty, stands forward u sell-confessed minion of military des potism, and the submissive Inatruihentof a dictator, for whom it lately could not Hud words of scorn strong enough to ex press a long-cherished detestation. Wu cannot too often reproduce the language of the chief Radical organ, or hold it up sufficiently to the public reprobation not only as a glaring outrage upon the du ally of the Senate, but a humiliating proof of tile degradation to which the American press has descended. “ We have assurances from Washing ton that General Grant finds' it not in consistent with ids duty as a soldier to announce it as his opinion that the only hope for the peace of the country is the successor the pending impeachment trial. He feels that national security demands the removal of the President. If the trial should fail, the people can only ex pect more assumptions of power, and*a more determined resiatence to law.— When the General of our armies intertains this conviction , there is no room for doubt as (o tile duty of the Senate." We venture to assert, thatdebaced and manacled as journalism is in France there is not a paper attached to the Em pire which has yet fallen so low in sprit and sentiment as to publish Its own infa- V', suc 'i terms as are above cited.— What has General Grant to do with the question before the Senate, that “ hia opinion should thus be thrust forward ? Is he a trier ? Has he been sworn ? Is he competent to instruct Fessenden Trumbull I relingliuysen, Edmunds,ami H t ,.l? l h e 'i ni !, ien L Ju t ist an(J statesmen of that body ! Has he examined the wit nesses or heard theWiraony, or inves t.gated the law? If he has Lot done so, iV. ?° re . ul 1011 to the case, why is it that his opinion as a soldier ” is obtru ded in this rude and insolent form ? We are told that General Grant “ feels the national security demands the re.- moval of the President.” As an enemy of Mr. Johnson, who exposed his duplici ty, and as an aspirant to the office which he holds, he probably “ feels" that one of the means of compassing both revenge and ambition would bo •• the removal of the President.” But the grossest insult to the Senate is contained in the declaration that “when the General of our armies entertains this conviction, there, is no room for doubt as to the duty of the & cnnic/” Gen. Grant therefore, has only to judge the casein his interest and make known his “ con viction,” in order that the Senate of the United States, sitting as a high court of Impeachment, may learn its “duty” of submission. “ To.this complexion have we come at lost.” It requires the exer cise of unusual forbearance to deal with this startling outrage as it deserves to be treated. Rome in its most corrupt, de generate day, under Tiberius, Caligula, VitelJlua, presented no more abjectordis gustlng spectacle than that which is now furnished in such voluntary abasement before a military commander, who has already been nobly recompensed for mure services than he ever rendered to the country. i {For the American Volunteer.

P rioo ' April 10,2|. OBITUARY Rm. Herman Mebrills Johnson, « t d I L. D„ late President of Plekinson Coileae " i Tho subject of this obituary was bom Novem bei 25,1815. He was a native' of Obsogo county Now York. In that State, while yet a youth «i Cazanovlo, ho began his studies preparatory' to college, and entered tho Junior class of Wesleyan University In 1837, graduating with distinct!™ in 1830. Immediately on leaving the University he wus elected Professor of Ancient languages iu’ at. Charles College, Missouri, where ho rendered valuable service to tho cause of Christian educa* Hon lor three year*. Thence ho was culled to occupy the chair of Ancient Languages la Au* gusto College. Kentucky, m this position he served two years iu tho work of the church, in 18-H he was elected Professor of Ancient Lau guages and Literature In Ohio Wesleyan Unlver slty, at Delaware, Ohio. He hero performed for awhile, tho duties of acting President of the In stitution, organizing Its curriculum, aud was es peclally Interested in Introducing therein a Bib* blcal course of study, as a method of ministerial education. Of this department, Inltslnciplency, ho tpok charge. Here ho labored asaldloualy six more years. In 1850 Dr, Johnson was elected to tho chair of Philosophy aud English Literature, In Dickinson College, which position he retained for ten years, laboring with unusual success. He was proffered, and accepted, tho Presidency of this Institution, together with the chair of Moral Science In 1800; and devoted his energies earnest ly to the administration of its affairs, living to see tho'Collego enter upon a now history of pros perity, when ho entered Into rest,Sabbath morn* itfg. April sth, 1808. The life work of Dr. Johnson thus covers a period of twenly»niuo consecutive years, in the several Colleges, as an educator,-a work forwhlcn ho was emlnentlylltted by natur al disposition, by enthusiasm of character, by Christian scholarship. In iB6O ho issued hlsvery popular edition of tho Clio of Herodotus, and In tuo later years of bis Ufo, ho was engaged with others, on a translasion and commentary on the books of tho Old Testament. He also had In course of preparation for the press, a work of German Synonyms, when he was suddenly cal led from labor to reward. In theMethodlst Quar to*/.!/ Review, Dr. Johnson’s articles were read with no ordinary Interest. As a thinker, he was clear concise, original; and his writings were often eminently distinguished for their simplicity and grace of expression. In all questions of histori cal and philological Inquiry, ho was particularly interested. In the social circle, he always appeared to great advantage. Ho was a superior conversational* Ist. Understanding so well the proprieties of life, ho bore himself in society, with the self* poise and suavity of the Christian gentlcmen.- Hls dignity and culture were always apparent. Perhaps bis natural kindness was even pro-eml* nent. Nowhere did Ids friends find him more tender and more uniformly corteous, than in his own. home circle. No father’s heart was more gentle—no husband more devoted. In this his character was beautiful. His conversion occurred In early life. 'He was thenastudentatCazanovla. The child of Metho dist paronls, bo was brought to a saving knowl edge of Jesus, under the influence of his Sabbath school teacher. Dr. George Peck received him to the fellowship and communion of the church. He was hero first licensed to preach, under the administration of Rev. John Quigley. During his residence in that State, he was a member of the North Ohio Conference; and at the time of his decease, ho was in relations with the Phila delphia Conference. Often original and striking la Ids views on points of speculative theology, no yet was thoroughly orthodox on the great principles involved in tbo dortrlno of ealvat’on by faith. Few could bo more instructive than be in the public ministry; none more acceptable where ho was most accustomed to labor. Never was his soul so fired with zeal, or Ailed with pow er, as when ho was preaching Jesus and the Resur rection of the Dead, As a Christian, he was best known and appreciated by those wbo were la the closest relations with him. la his presence the student could always find a sympatbyzlng friend, a thoughtful counselor; aud the child of Jesus, one whoso spiritual Instincts placed them together In nearest affinity with each other. About eight days before bis end, he suffered a violent attack of paralysis of the stoma cli. From this, however, he bad so far recovered as to at' tend to his usual public duties In the college chapel, the Saturday before his death.. During this brief period, It was difficult to restrain him »rom his work. He loved the duties to which he had been so long devoted, and in which ho had experienced so much, both of trial and happi ness. Though Buffering great 'bodily affliction, he even seemed unusually cheerful In spirit. On the last Friday before his obange, he was with tho Senior Class, engaged in his lecture room, in the customary way. His strength yielding, he said to them, in allusion to his first attack, and in a manner pleasant almost to gaiety, “ Gentle men, you know I have been Wrestling with the giants; and though I have apmo off victor, I now need rest; so I wllhhld yon'-aoc-* .morning, shall see you again Tht;*' ‘ jiTt" r— their JAt Interview together.
