Tl' Wnxliintim correspondent of
the (. inointmli Commercial, on Uio
14lh of Aril, tlim wrote concerning
the Jmjx'ucliiiu'nUnd tlio loading ac
ton :
Tho rrrent trial is now nenrly A (load
look. Tho court is unwieldy, its pre
siding officer lettered hy tho llowurd
ruliw and every quontion has to be
put to voto. Tho more of a dead lock
tho triul gets to bo, tho morn exacting
it grows. Yesterday mid tho day bo
foro th illuHtrious hero ot tho great
mnrth was hnggled over by tho itiw
ycrs es if ho had been tho corpne of a
man found dead und examined by ft
coroner's inquest, llovcrdy Johnson
arose in tho CVsariun majesty and
cut friend Benjamin liutler through
the Kkull, figurative sneaking. All
the lesser birds cackled, crowed or
Sled.
IS STANTON A COWARD.
rjenoral Sherman tostitied that Mr.
JoluiHou promised to him that Stanton
was cowardly. This fact is very pa
lent here. To thoso persons whom
lie can ovorawe, Stanton is ft roaring
lion. lie is mock as u ring-dove to
peoplo who cun put him on any equal
ity. Iuring this long ad interim sea
son ho hus been afraid to quit tho War
Department, sleeping there at nights
to the amusement of men of all onin
ioiiH. Kren old Gen. Thomas said :
"So man but ono who would do a
mean thing himself would act as
Stanton expects me to act. lie think
I would klip in there in the night and
Beize Lis office. A politician might
is this, sot a 'soldier.' "
Mr. Stanton's cowardice has bcon
teBted hero very often. One of his
reasons for keeping "Goneral" Dcte3
tive linker in his employment was to
watch his house ana keep assassins,
imagined or supposed, away. During
much of the war ho lived haunted
existence, relieved by spasmodic blus
tering. Indeed, the "advance charac
ters" in tho impeachment triul are a
good deal like talstafTs band. Stan
ton ia Nym, Wade is Pistol, Howard
with hit red nose, is Bardolph, Butler
is FalatttfT, with his eye in mourning,
Bingham isold MistrossQuickley and
Forney is the convenient young wo
matt of the play, a camp follower, who
will sloop any where.
Forney's mortgages to jerry black.
Lest you might imngino by the fre
quent repetition of Forney's name,
that he was a person of any signifi
cance hero, I must tell you that bis
eminence in sycophancy bos now pas
sed contempt and is now ono of tho
humors of Washington.
Jerry Black said to a Republican
Congressman tho other: "That' a
pretty crowd that lodges with you
fellows. I'll tell you about one of the
most precious ones of thorn, Forney.
After he hud abused Mr. Buchanan in
his new paper in Philadelphia, he
camo to see mo ono day, with his face
whito-livcred as usual, and said : 'M r.
Black 1 make mo a territorial Gover
nor 1 I will put my paper ut your foct.
There shall not an article of any kind
appear in it which has not first boon
submitted to you.' Ho retired un
riatirsfied, and wroto letter upon letter,
praying to bo appointed something.
Those lotters are now in my posses
sion, andForney Knows it, while he
priDts bis tirades upon mo. And why
does he dare do it: Bucauso he has
no shame, and because he knows that
old Jerry Black never Bhowcd a pri
vate letter."
Black has had a good clinnco to soc
tho characteristic malice and treache
ry of Johnson. Having tried hard
to got Black to conduct his caso in
(be impeachment triul, and failed.
John n got the correspondent "Da
ta," who is his phonographic repor
ter, to attack Black in tho Baltimore
Sun.
If Andrew Johnson is convicted, it
will be chiefly bocauso ho lost the aid
of Jerry Black, who would have mot
Butler point by point in tho cross-examination,
and laid him out in the
early stngo of his audacity. Black is
a very curious character, full of idosyn
crncioB. He prepares moBt of his ar
guments at homo walking up and
down tho floor at night, whero ho
would walk tho wbolo night long if
ins wile did not appear along toward
1 o'clock und lead him to bed. It is
related , that on ono occasion ho had
bought a bran now bat, which had
beau laid on tho floor by some mistake.
Jerry mistook it in tho imperfect
light of his parlor for a spittoon and
next morning tho hat looked like a
great quid of tobacco, Ho had spit
it nearly even full.
illl CROTCHETS OF STARRER?.
It is rcluclnntly admitted that Mr.
Stanliery, conductor of Mr. Johnson's
cao, is a failure. He has been too
much of a Btudent, and his experience
is too much contracted in ready de
bate. His temper is irritable and his
face almost transparent, so that all
Butler has to do is to watch Stanbory's
countenance to know whoro to hit
next. This the "gluttonous old fib
ber," as the prir.e fighters say, does
with a kind of Marat grin which poi
sons while ho wounds. Beyond this,
Sti.iili'iry's judgment is bad. F.varts
and Curtis do all they can to keep
Ji mi in his placo, but liutler, by a de
moniacal grin und pricking can get
him up at any time, so hot and out
of psuenco that his words fuil him;
be flounders about, and finally effects
nothing. Ono day ho compelled hv
arts to sit down whilo ho himselt re

INTIMIDATIONS TO SENATORS.
You have littlo idea, at your din
tance from tho capital, of the pressure
brought to bear upon tho Senuto to
make them convict Mr. Johnson.
Not only are the mails full of admon
itory letters, entreaties, appeals to
ambition und four, and laments for
the party, if Johnson bo not convicted ;
but tho Bopublican newspapers, in
tho majority of cases, flourish tho
whip and imprecate upon tho person
al heads of their Senators. Northern
men who live in tho South, have beon
imported here to add their beseoch-
ings. It is almost needless hero to
add that all those present are aspi
rants for office in the southern States
At the head of the whippers-in are
such men as Kelly, of Pennsylvania,
who receives most of these retugoes
and consigns them to Forney, who
in turn, blows upon his chronical nose
and asks heaven to interfere. Heav
en and tho opposite place let Forney
alone, as uuworlby tho virtues of
either.
I need not say more upon this ques
tion, except to add that very many
Republicans like myself, who believe
Mr. Johnson to be an unworthy man
and the candidate of a reckless nomi
nating convention, and who came
here with some hope that there would
be charges against Lira grave enough
to get us rid of bim, bave felt insensi
bly, while attending this trial, fears
of a graver sort.
BUTLER AGAINST POPULAR GOVERN
MENT. - General Butler is not a believer in
a democratic form of government,
lie has said so 'not once, but often
and openly. Ho has called popular
government a farce, and counted the
number of years he will give it to
run. He believes in the coup d'etat.
tho empire, tho strong military hand
tho very things, in short, which ho
is indicting Mr. Johnson for doing in
mere intent. Here, then, we have
tho spectacle ol a man, in the name
of all the people, taking, perhaps, ono
of bis favorito steps toward annihila
ting the popular government.
WADE A FIRE-EATER.
Mr. Wade, who is to be the succes
sor of Mr. Johnson, is infinitely a less
responsible a moro implacable and
and scarcely less dangerous man than
Mr. Johnson. His rugo is of a dread
ful sort. Wo .Republicans who bo
liovcd that tho Republican party was
tho ultra-Democratic party have come
to dread rash and remorseless men
liko this. They aro not of a gentle
type like Abraham Lincoln. Wo have
daily occasion to see their spirit ex
emplified bore, and we find oursolves,
therefore, in doubt as to what to do.
If this corrospondonco recoives any
faith at tho band ot any Republi
can reader of tho Commercial, let him
do nothing to influence the decision
of this sworn jury of the Senate.
Rather let him w rite to bis particular
Senator to do justice according to the
evidence, and what is perfect justice
must be. in the end, iserlcct patriotism.
I ask you ulso to remember tnat
tho men most rash to nominatoMr.
Johnson at Baltimore are equally head
long now to convict hun. The nomi
nation has duluyod peaco lor lour
years; tne quosiion now is wnciaor
this cractio legislation will be good
for anything in tho nino months re
maining to the President. At any
rnto wo distrust tho physicians.
Nevertheless we hopo lor a verdict
thntwill stand the tost of timo. It
will bo vain to try othcrwiso to raise
a party of progress again in this coun
try for twenty years.
Do Yod Call This Repudiation T
On the back of the legal tender notes
issued under tho act ot rebruary ZD,
'07, tho following plodgo is given :
"This is a legal tender lor ail debts
Public and Privato except Duties on
Imports and Intorcsts on the Public
Debts and in exchango for U. S. six
per cent. Twonty Years Bonds re
deemable at the pleasure of the Uni
ted States alter live years."
The "Five Years" have eqpirod. Is
it repudiation to redeem the bonds
with these notes f Again, see back of
notes issued under the act of July 11,
I860 and road the following:
"This nolo is a legal tender for all
Debts Public and private except du
ties on imports and interest on the
Public debts: And is receivable in
tsyment for all loans made to the
Initod States."
There wo bave it : "Is receivable in
tayment for all loans mado to tho
United States." Can anything be
moro explicit ! Tho bondholders loan
cd greenbacks to the Government
nnd the Government says its notos
shall be roccived in payment thereof.
Now that greenbacks are worth con
siderable moro than at the timo tho
bondholders paid groenbocks for thoir
bonds, and as they am "cxchangable
for United States six per cent, twen
ty years bonds rodecinablo at the
ploasure of tho United States after
fivo rears . wo would acain ask is
it repudiation to redeem the bonds in
Greenbacks J

George B. Goodlander, Editor.
CLEARFIELD, PA.
Thursday Morning, May 7, 1868.
The Party and ill Candidal.
Within the next six weeks the Dem
ocrats of this county will bo called
upon to solect their standard bearers
for the approaching campaign, which
all 'parties admit, will be tho most
vigorous and exciting, this country
has ever passed through. Every Dem
ocrat who loves his country and in
tends his offspring to enjoy tho bless
ing of liberty in the future, must press
to tho front. We want no straglors,
nor "dead beats," nor skulkers in our
ranks ; and if we attack the enomy
vigorously,jbeyond a doubt we will
secure a glorious victory.
Those, therefore, who contemplate
offering themselves as candidates for
county offices in the approaching can
vass, may as well be informed now
that the party will require much at
their bands. There will be no divi
ding of responsibilities. Our nomi
nees must do their duty to the party,
after which the party will discharge
its duty to thera.
Two elections aro to be bold this
year. Time, talent and means will be
required by those who sock posts of
bonornnd profit. Thoso porsons who
intend to offer themselves at the ap
proaching primary election for Con
gress, Senator, Representative, Pro
thonotary, Register & Recorder, Cora
missioncr and Auditor, will bo requir
ed to bring into the contest just what
we bave enumerated; and thoso cho
sen for our standard beurcrs at tho
primary election, will bo required to
put on tho burness and wear it until
tho fourth day of November noxt.
They must prosocute the campaign
vigorously, and seo that every Demo
cratic voter is brought to the polls.
Our nominees must carry tho party,
and not the party them. Dead weights
and all unnecessary boggago must bo
discardod. We want no candidates
to wago a vigorous campaign in their
own interost exclusively, previous to
tho primary election, and when it is
over never let themselves be seen out
of their own yards. Tho pooplo will
rcquiro those who manifest so much
seal for thoir own interest before, to be
equally zealous for the interest of the
parly afterwards. Democrats when
approached by candidates boforo tho
primary election, should rcfuso to
support them unless they agreo to at
tend to tho interests of tho party af
ter they aro nominated, and should
they refuse, then the citixons should
refuso to support them ; because it is
not expected that citizens who noith-
or seek nor caro for office, should car
ry on a campaign for tho bonoGt of
candidates.
We exuoct to take a party interest
in this campaign, and desire to dis
charge our duty in our humble way
to tho best of our ability, and we want
our party friends to do the same. As
Chairman of tho County Committoo,
wo will most likely "turn up" In eve
ry borough and township of thesoun
ty, and we expect township commit
tee men and candidates to "swing
around the circle" too. Lot us make
one long, strong pull altogether, and
drive from power the plundering.
Union-bating, negro-loving scalliwags
who are breaking up the government
and demoralising tho people.
A Lotal Trdtii. It is but seldom
that we find the Disunion organs toll
the naked truth, but the Revolution,
a Radical paper, says "thero aro six
" ty thousand people out of employ
"in Aew lork, ana two nunaroa
" thousand in all tho United States !
" A million of mouths short of food in
" a country which was grooning with
" abundance in 1SC5." Is the proper
romody for all this to bo found in con
tinuing to tax Northorn white labor
to support negro idleness in the South ;
in keeping a standing army of 30,000
men in excoss oi mo peace oasis, as a
means of compelling the whites in the
South to yield tlmir civilisation to
semi-barbarism f The Radicals say
so. But whito woikingmcn in the
North look at the matter in a differ
ent light, and their opinions aro bo-

FQUALiTr. In Iowa tho Supreme
Court at Davenport has docided, (in
a suit brought against scnooi airoct
ors to determine tho right of nogro
children to attend white schools,) tnat
all youth in the State are equal before
the law. So, a Jacobin organ trium
phantly exclaims :
"Tho colored youth of the State
may now, without fear of molestation
from Democratic schooroflieials, avail
themselves of tho best education fa
cilities afforded within its limits."
Jcnks, who was appealed to for aid
for tho suffering poor of Croto, replied
that thero wcro poor "crclurs" enough

Judge Woodward' t Bill.
While our government was admin
istcrod by honest agents, its machinery
seemed to be perfect in all its depart
ments, because it always worked well
Governmental oppression and individ
ual wrongs wore unheard of, and not-
until tbo political buzzards who
have for seven years past, controlled
its affairs was it ever dreamed that
both the Constitution and the laws
mado in accordance therewith failed
to accomplish their legitimate purpo
ses. Whon, unfortunately, the Presi
dent and tho infamous Congress as
sumed belligerent positions and warred
upon each other, it was discovered
that there was no law upon tho stat
ute books to control thera and keep
thera within legitimate bounds, hence
Judgo Woodward has introduced tho
following bill, which will in the future
settle such miserable conduct as we
have beheld at Washington for tbo
past two years. Had suoh a law been
in existence, the whole of the present
difficulties at Washington would have
boon obviated, and the conflict which
is distracting the entire nation, stag
nating businoss,dostroying confidence,
undermining the whole structure of
our Government, and threatening its
overthrow, would have beon avoided.
It is to be hoped that Judge Wood
ward's bill will rocoive at the hands
of Congress tho attention it deserves,
and that, instead of depriving the Su
premo Court of its constitutional func
tions, Congress will cnlurge its juris
diction, and thus strengthen this great
bulwark of our national libcrtios :
Sec. 1. Bciteaactedy theSenateand
Houso of Representatives of tho Uni
ted States of America in Congress as
sembled, That whenever uny act of
Congress shall hereafter be vetoed by
tho President of the United States on
the ground of tho unconstitutionality
of any of its provisions, and ehall af
terwards be enacted into a law by a
voto of two thirds of both houses, not
withstanding tho executive veto, it
shall bo lawful for the President to
order the Attorney General to draw
up and filo on record in the Supreme
Court of the United Stato a feigned
issuo, with such pleadings as shall be
necossary and proper to raise the con
stitutional questions suggested in tho
veto message of tho President, and to
tost tho constitutionality of such parts
of said cnactmonts as were specially
objected to by him on constitutional
grounds, but winch issuo and pioad
ings shull bo so drawn as to put in is
suo no other questions whatsoever.
Sec. 2. And bo it furthor enactod,
That immediately on filing ssid issuo
and pleudings of record in tho Su
premo Court, a certified copy thereof
suall bo served by tho Attorney lien
eral or by some person appointed by
him, upon tho Speaker ot the House
of Rcprosentalivoi for the time being
wboso duty thereupon it shall bo to
appear on rocord by himself or
counsel, to defend the constitutionali
ty of suid enactment, and thereupon
the Court shall, on application of
counsel, make all necessary ordorstor
advancing said issuo to argument and
for hearing argumont thereon at the
earliest practicable period of their
session in banc, and upon entering
judgment in said issue tho Court shall
bio their written opinion upon every
constitutional question therein raised
and each and every enactment of said
act of Congross which shall bo ad
judged unconstitutional shall thenco-
iortti be held ana taxen to do nun ana
void ; but until such judgment is pro
nounced, tho samo shall be dooiuod
constitutional and valid.
Seo. 8. And bo it furthor enacted :
That it shall be lawful for the Attor
ney General in preparing said issue,
to use the names ot real parties, u
any such havo an Interest in the ques
tions to be tried and decided, or ficti
tious names at his discretion : and all
costs, fees and charges attending said
procooding, including those of the
Speaker of tho House of Representa
tives or his counsel, after being duly
audited at tho Treasury Department,
shall bo paid upon warrants of proper
omcers out oi any moneys ia me

B. F. B. and Chandler of the Sen
ate, were walking up the avenuo the
other day, when Butler broke out:

but did you ever hoar anybody call

replied the amiable Senator, "but I
often heard you called a sponey
