DUTTOI^ EVENING BULLETIN. WEDNESDAY,, OCTOBER 10, 1866. XESTERDAY’S VICTORIES. Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana and lowa yesterday held their State elec- j' tions, and each one emphatically con- I demned President Johnson’s policy, and 1 ■endorsed the action of Congress. In I Pennsylvania the struggle was a severe one, and in Philadelphia particularly the Union men had to contend against ex- j traordinary difficulties. For here the j most important Federal offices were I made to serve electioneering purposes, J and the Navy Yard was filled with I workmen who were made to vote on the J Democratic ticket. Thus between office- I holders and office-seekers and subsidized | laborers, it is rather surprising that the city was not carried by the Johnson men. But we have a majority of nearly nix thousand on most of our candidates; have re-elected all our Congressmen who -were running, and carried even the Fifth district, which has been considered doubtful. "We have lo3fc a State Senator and one or two Representatives in the city, but these were for reasons having reference only to the past course of the candidates, and they show no loss of party strength. "We have elected our Ju diciary and the city and county officers, and carried both branches of City •Councils. The returns from the interior of the State are more gratifying than those from the city. General Geary will pro bably have from fifteen to tjventy thou sand majority. "We have probably gained a Congressman in the Lebanon and Schuylkill district, and one in the Fayette! Indiana and Westmoreland district, while we have carried also the Adams and Franklin district, which was contested in the present Congress. Both branches of the Legislature will be de cidedly Republican, which secures a true United States Senator in place of the renegade Cowan. All things considered, the victory is. a most glorious one. -Joined with the corresponding ones in Ohio, Indiana, and lowa, where there sure also great Republican gains, they must convince the country and the world that the people are true to the -cause for which the war against the re bellion was fought. Revolutions never go backwards, and the great revolution which abolished slavery and overthrew the Southern oligarchy, cannot be ar rested. The war has not been fought in vain, although the President has gone over to the enemy. Republicanism or Radicalism (if people choose to call it so), has triumphed and the country is caved.. AFTER THE ELECTION. The periodical political Convulsions of this country deprive the American peo ple ofa large share oif that repose that is necessary for the best intellectual and moral development. Partisan feeling, which is never wholly extinct, becomes a real fury during the few weeks that , prcce’de an election. The four years of war especially exasperating and exciting -effect -upon the people. The year anda. half that hqye elapsed since -hostilities ip the field ceased have been scarcely lees exciting; for the people who made such sacrifices to preserve the Union have been... betrayed, outraged and insulted by the man whom they had trusted, and who, by a fearful cal amity and crime, became ' the head of the . Nation. They have. felt that it. was necessary to resist the President and his policy at the ballot ““I hiß supporters have been so hitter, Ecrmalignant, and bo shameless in^®!J m abu . Be o£ Congress, that the loyal constituencies have been exasperated almost as much as they were when the war was going on. The contest in this and several other States is now over, and the result is in favor of Congress and against the Pre~ . eident. He has hardly been in his right mind, charily may suggest, in his angry opposition _ jq yjg representative .body of the people. At any rate, he must see, in the 4 result of the elections this fall," tbat 4 ire has wholly mistaken the tem per and the disposition of the peo . pie of the loyal States; has made frequent boast that he was one of the people, that he is now the servant of the people* and that he is willing to execute the will of the people. That will has now been expressed, .aftef a most exciting contest, in which the President and his supporters have had full opportunity of being heard. If he is wise and truthful, he will accept the | result gracefully and submissively, though it may be mortifying to do- so- He will cease his angry abuse of Con gress; he wpl withdraw his opposition I to the Constitutional amendment; and he will advise its adoption, as the speediest method of restoring quiet to the country and securing representation in Congress I to all the States. At all events, the struggle is over for this year, and if the President chooses, it will not he renewed next year, nor the year -after, with anything like the bitterness of this year. The people are craving quiet and rest- They want tqbe relieved of political ex citement, so that they may devote them selves to their callings, and be better able tobear the burden Of the', debt in curred to save the nation. They want time to read, study and improve their minds and those of their children. They want to have the opportunity of indulg ing, undisturbed by their tastes for literature and the arts; to go to churches, lectures, theatres, operas,balls and concerts, without haying before their minds the vision of a President at war with Congress, and the prospect of indefinite disorder and insecurity throughout the country. If Mr. John son chooses he can secure for them these great boons, and we may have stfch peace, prosperity, happiness and confi dence in the future among ill the people ais they have not had for many years. “prorogues'**” congress. ■ LouisXl., in the play of that name, says: “I like your angry men; you see through them all at once. 7 ’ This remark occurred to us this morning when we read the howlings of a Copperhead co temporary, which, angered at the awful yerdiet of cbndemnation uttered against Andrew Johnson yesterday, by the peo ple of four great States, betrayed what in soberer moments it would-probably have kept to itself. This treason-mon gering sheet,-which, except as a sort of confidential organ of a treacherous Exe cutive, would not carry the slightest weight with it, let it rave everso wildly, urges upon the President the propriety of “proroguing” Congress by the sum mary process of taking armed possession of the Capitol and throwing our Repre j sentatives and Senators into prison. It contends that the emergency j ustifies the President in “temporarily assuming power not expressly granted by the Con stitution,” and winds up the article with a paragraph which we reproduce ver batim, italics, capitals and, all. It says: “At present we will only remark that Thaddeus Stevens and a number of other per sons violently excluding members of Congress, from th£ir seats, and acting in violation of the Constitution, cannot be legitimately re garded as THE CONGRESS OF THE UNITED STATES.” vVe repeat that except for the fact that this treasonable stuff has a soft of semi-official character, it would not be worthy ofamoment’snotice.considering the contemptible source through which it reaches the public eye. As it is, the threatening hint is significant and it becomes important. Andrew Johnson in his disgraceful tour appealed from Congress to the peo ple. The people have responded by sustaining Congress by a vote that is as triumphant a vindication of the popular branch of tfie Government as it is an emphatic condemnation of the faithless President. Does the latter contemplate resisting the force of this decision, and ‘ ‘temporarily assume power not expressly granted by the Constitution?” Is An drew Johnson bent upon establishing the dictatorship he has so frequently hinted at? If so, he and his creatures cannot give the loyal people of the countiy too early a hint of his inten tions. large Bales Extra Valuable Real Estate.. Messrs.
