have no respite from Congressional per
smut* between the 4th of March and

tives, hoist one of its creatures into the
Presidential,. office. The Constitution
males the House of Representatives, in
cases of impeachment, simply an accuser;
Phillips would make it judge. All the
House can do is to present the President
to the Senate for trial, and appear there
against him as prosecutor. It is for .the
Senate to saY, after hearing the evidence,
whetheithe accusation is justly or un
justly made. But it can pronounce no
sentence, either of suspension or deposi
tion until after the proofs have been
weighed and the accused heard in his
own defence. If the implident assump
tion of power recommended by Phillips
should be made by the House, that revo
lutionary body would be likely to learn
that its sergeant at arms is not quite a
match for the military force commanded
by the President."

Prepaxing to Perpetrate an Ontrage.
The Radicals in Congress showed du
ring last winter that they were ready to
resortto any expedient to increase their
majority in -the House and the Senate.
The case of Mr. Stockton, Senator from
New Jersey, was so gross and barefaced
a piece of: infamy that it excited the in
dignation even of honest Republicans.
Several of the cases of contested elections
decided in the House were equally outra
geous, but the villainy-in them was not
thrust quite..so openly before the public.
The news of the election in this State has
not beert•fully received as yet ;- 'but even

The penile of,. the South were told,
through ten thousand sources, from the

They were told it by Grant,and Sherman,
wbo.guaranteed impunity against ever
being molested by the Federal Govern
ment, even to those who bad borne arms
through the whole war. They were told
it by President Johnson, in his action re
establishing the State Governments of the

at Syracuse one.ye.ar ago, when its mem

in his administration
,those assurances of

for the North to skulk out of all these re

Death ofJehti Vail:3'lre%
lisw Yogic, Oct. 16
,lohn Van Buren died two days since
on board the steamship Scotia, at sea.
His body has been bronght on to this city.
SKETCII OF NZ. VAN. BUREN
Hon. John Van Buren was the eldest
son of Martin Van Buren, once President
of the United States. He was born at
Hudson, N. Y., on the 18th of February,
1810. He graduated creditably at Yale
College in 1828, and studied with Gener
al- Benjamin- F. Butler, in Albany, and
with Hon. Aaron Vanderpool, at Kinder
hook, the residelice of his father, the ex-
President. He was promptly admitted
to the bar, and soon acquired a respecta
ble practice. In 1831 his father was ap
pointed Minister to the Court of St. Den
is, and.thither John Van Buren proceed
ed as Secretary of Legation. He held
this post for two years, when Martin
Van Buren was recalled from Paris.
After this the subject of our sketch ob
tained a large legal patronage, and took
an active part in State politics. lie was
especially noted for his peculiar eloquence
and lordly views, and the soubriquet of
" Prince John" was given him in the
campaign of 1848. In 1845 he was elec
ted Attorney General of the State of N.
York by the Legislature. From the con
elusion of his term of office, up to his de
cease, Mr. Van Bureu was a prominent
member of the bar. In the exciting Pres
idential contest of 1848, he greatly distin
guished himself as a popular advocate of
the Free Soil party, then but just loom
ing up. From that time down to a com
paratively recent period, he took a con
spicuous part in all the great political
contests of the day.
As a lawyer John Van Buren ranked
high. As a public speaker he was much
admired for his originality and brillian
cy. As a man it is enough to say that
all who were introduced to him became
faSt personal friends, whom no partisan
feeling could estrange. His enemies were
few and were among those who knew not
the genial man.
Mr. Van Buren died of general debili
ty, on board the steamship Scotia, on
Monday morning, when that vessel was
only a few hours' sail from New York.
Hie friends in that city had made ar
rangements to give him *reception at the
wharf, but, on reaching there, alas it was
only to behold the inanimate remains of
their dear friend. Verily, "In the midst
of life we are in deatH."
Incidents of his last Days.
It will be a gratification to the friends
of Mr. Van Buren to know that for some
hours previous to his death he was in en
tire possession of his mental faculties.
The evening on which be died was spent
in the society
i of his daughter and niece,
Surgeon Brice, of the Scotia, also being
in attendance. He knew that he had
been very sick, but happily retained no
distinct recollection of having been deliri
onialy affected in -his mind, and the bald
--lob has
been the case was so affectionately and
judiciously discouraged as to disabuse him
of the impression, and minister to bis
complete composure and freedom from
the mortification which his sensitive na
ture would have felt. Upon that even
ing, in contradistinction from previous
occasions, he laid back upon the pillows,
quietly but minutely observing the friends
by bis'bedside, and beyond the expres
sion of a heartfelt gratitude for the least
service, attempted but, little talking. The
very last words be uttered are now of
mournful, yet. sacred interest. About
twelve and a half minutes after nine he
beckoned Dr. Brice to his side, and said,
with an earnestness that his vocal hoarse
ness could not conceal, as his face lighted
up with a glow of success anticipated,
and a smile of hopefulness which death
has since emphasized on his features : " I
am going to New York; shall help make
my friend Hoffman Governor. Then all
will be right, and Johnson and the Union
made strong." . These were his last. words.
The subseqneat. scenes of his death have
been related.
"The weather, almost immediately after
Mr. Van Buren's death, became tremen
dously stormy. The Scotia was just sail
ing into the gale then raging along our
Eastern coast. The coincidence of Mr.
Vau.Buren's death with the occurrence
of the hurricane had an effect upon the
minds of some of the working seamen,
which, though not novel, considering
their superstitious tendencies, is interes
ting to relate in reference to the present
occasion. The sailors esteemed it. very
bad luck to keep the body on board,
without instantly committing it to the
deep, and were chagrined at the noble
resolve of Commodore Judkins to bear
the remains to our shore for interment.
They requested its sea burial. It was re
fused. Still the storm continued, and
the seamen considered the unconscious
corpse a Jonah in their midst. It is sta
ted that. a movement was frustrated by
detection, which they had covertly con
sidered, if not determined to cut the ropes
that held the boat on the port side, in
which the coffined remains bad been plac
ed. The conduct of the officers of the
Scotia, in this circumstance, will be duly
appreciated by the thousands to whom
the regular interment of the body of Mr.
Van Buren among the scenes and asso
ciations of his home, is in no small de
gree the mitigation of the personal sor
row occasioned by his untimely loss..

Po., were terribly shocked the other day

The "Evening Star" Calamity.
According to the detailed statements
of the loss of the ill fated steamship Even
ing Star, it appears that she went down
suddenly with all on board, the life boats,
six in number, having been loosened, and
some of the passengers being crowded in
them at the time. By the sinking of the
ship, boats, passengers and all were car
ried down, and when the survivors rose
to the surface, they were amid timbers
and the . floating pieces of the wreck.
Many. succeeded in gaining these, but
some were dasbed,off by.the forcoof the
waves or sever* bruised by broken por
tions of the ship being hurled against
them. The life boats were all floating,
some of them upside down. The crew
and passengers who were saved, succeed
ed in gaining them, bat
,several were af
terwards lost frofn them by their being
frequently upset. Up to this time four
of the boats have been heard from, and ,
they brought in thirty seven.of the crew
and six passengers. The parser reports
that there were about two hundred and
seventy five persons on board at starting
from New York, so that it is probable
that of the passengers and crew two hun
dred and thirty four perished. From the
accounts of the disaster, it is evident that
the life boats were most inappropriately
named. Some of them were upset six
teen and seventeen. times. They were in
finitely of less value than a common ship's
boats, which rarely can be upset by the
force of the waves. Who constructed
these boats, is not, mentioned, but evi
dently they were of such models that it
was a folly and a dishonesty to purchase
them. In regard to the Evening Star,
doubts are expressed by the journals of
New York as to her ever being a strong
ship. She was a sidewheel steamer, with
upright beam engines, and it is believed
that such vessels are in more danger du
ring storms at sea than propellers, the
lers, the machinery of which is below the
water line. The paddle boxes of the Ev
ening Star were demolished by the bil
lows long before she went down, and the
strain upon her aides by the leverage giv
en to the waves ander the overhanging
decks must have been very great, and
calculated to affect the hull in weak parts.
There may be some lessons of prudence
in re c-ard to the construction of steam
vessels fer ocean navigation to be learn
ed from the fate of this ship, but whether
the reckless headlong disposition of our
countrymen they will ever study them
may be doubted.
The War in South America.
The war between Brazil and Paraguay
still continues, with fluctuating and un
certain results. The allies have been
worsted in some of the later engagements,
still there are no indications of their re
linquishing the struggle. Oh the contra
ry, preparations are making for pushing
another offensive campaign with vigor
and determination. The allied naval and
military commanders had a formal confer
iftWon'the4Atti, August, at which it
- 4U2, l l[l:Aet.ellitAlua 3 • ... • •
be a ttacaeo simult y ..
aneous t ew pole
of the allied forces—land as well as naval.
The plan of attack is based upon studies
of the position made by Marshal Polydo
ro, which has received the support and
sanction of his Brazilian colleagues, Por
to Alegre and Tamandare. Fort Curu
palti is to be first attacked by the squa
dron and redriCed so as to• uncover the
right wing of the Paraguayan army, which
is to be attacked by the Second corps of
the allied army, while the First corps
moves against the center, and the Argen
tine against the left wing. In the allied
camp indications of a coming movement
were plainly perceptible at the last dates
from the front. Ail officirs on leave of
absence had been called upon to rejoin
their regiments, and the sick, wounded,
and disabled were being sent to the rear.
The Ist of September had been fixed up
on as the date of a movement on the part
of the allies, and we may soon hear start
ling news from the Parana.
In the meantime, Paraguay is prepar
ing in all possible ways, for the opening
of hostilitiec. Lopez is said to have arm
ed a port ion'of his troops with rifles, and
instructed, firm to. cut. off the allied offi
cers. To this fact is attributed the se
vere and disproportionate loss among
them during the recent engagements, the
Brazilians alone having had four generals
killed and one wounded, besides a great
number of other officers of lower rank.
The Paraguayan congrevo rockets are
said to be very effective, and to have been
the cause of the heavy losses of the allies
in the fight of the 18th July. In this
missile they far surpass the Brazillians.
On the other hand, the latter have.the
advantage in .their ,superior artillery.
The Paraguayans, however, are always
careful to place their batteries in timber,
where they aro sheltered. and can be
readily defended by infantry if stormed.
Secretary Stanton.
It may be true, as stated in special de
spatches, that the Hun. E. M, Stanton,
has, in writing, requested the - President
to relieve him of his position as Secretary
of War, but the President had reeeived
no such communication as yet. There
seems however, to be no doubt that Mr.
Stanton will soon retire from his present
position. It is understood that Lieuten
ant General Sherman has been invited to
Washington, and there is a strong proba
bility that he will take charge of the War
Department, for a time at least, as he
harmonizes with President Johnson in his
policy of restoring the Southern States
to their pfaCtical relations' to the Union.

How our-District was Caned.
There has beeisorne surprise expressed
that the Disunionists should .have been
Able-totally this District without. the
aid of the' army „yote and the hospitals
which they used . !so effectively in 1664.
Since the election. We have : learned some
thing that we.did nOt know before, which .
makes it very dear how Taylor was elec.
ted. With this knowledge in our pos
session, we are now surprised that we did
so well. The district was carried by
money, and not because the principles Of
the Torch and
.Turpentine party. meet fa-,
vor with the people., We were in Phila
delphia last Thursday, when we were in
formed that a week before the election, a
Disunion'GoVernor of New England sent .
his check for fifty five thousand dollars,'
drawn in favor of an officer of the Union,
League, to be used in Our Dititrict. The
check was cashed by the First National
Bank, atid'iWekt,i , three thousand dollars
Were plced in the binds Of' a person, in
GeratantOWn, to be sent'into this county.
This money was brought into Bucks and
used to corrupt the electors. This ex
plains the abundance of money seen at the
polls in the hands of the Disunionists; and
also their greatly increased vote in the
c ounty anti District.
This information was imparted to us
by a reliable person, who holds himself
responsible for what. lie says, and if' any
of the Disunionists or others wish to
know who the parties to this tranction
were, they can have then by calling up
on us.—Doylestoton Dem.
