In the United States Senate, December !19, J8G0, Aodrew Johnson, Senator front the State of Tennessee, saiJ : " . believe we have the power in our ow: hands, and I am not williDcr to shr ik from the responsibility of ezercis ing'that power. I am lor (hiding hy the Constitution, and in abiing by it I want to maintain and re taiitny place here and put down Mr. Liiolu and drive back his advances upon Soithern institutions, if he designs to male any, ' Have we not got the brakes in lur hands? Have we not got the poter 1 W'e have. Let South Carolina seul her Senators back ; let all the Sen ators come ; and on the 4th of March nejt we shall have a majority of six against him. This sectional candidate, wh is in a minority of a million, or Dearly so, oatlie-rniiuLirvulc. cannot uake his Cabinet on the 4th cf March next unless this Senate will permit him. Am I to be So great a coward as to re treat from duty ? I will stand here and resist all encroachmeuts and advance?. Here is tho place to stand. Shall I de sert the citadel and let the enemy come and take possession ? No, Can 3Ir. Lincoln send a foreign minister, or even a consul, abroad-, unless he receives the sanction of the Senate? Can he appoiut a postmaster, whosf salary is over 81,000 a year, without the consent ot the Sen ate ? Shall we desert our posts, shrink from our responsibilities, and permit 31r. Lincoln to cotno with his cohorts, as we consider them, from the North, aud carry away everything ?" The above was a truthful illustration of the powers of Congress over the Pres ident ;n 1800, it will apply with equal force at the present time. If CoDgress could restrict the power of President Licooin ia It cau exercise like re strictions over President Johnson in 1SG0. Does President Johuson hold the same doctrine note, that he applied to Presi dent Lincoln (hen, that he cannot, as President of the United States, send a Foreiga minister abroad or appoint a Post-master whose sa'ary is over ? 1,000 a year, without the conseut of the' Senate of tho United States? Not by any means! What he proclaimed as the law at that time, he cow disdainfully tramples under bis feet, aud usurps powers which no pre vious President ever exercised, or attetup ed to exercise ! lie not only removes good and true men from office, hut insults the Senate of the United States, and through it the entire country, by re ap, pointing men to office who have time and again been rejected by the approving pow er of the government. When will the country become fully aroused to the enor mity of tho conduct of this man whom we are compelled to recognize as our Pres-. idem ? A YOUNG LADY'S KEASONS FOR NOT DANCING. 1. Dancing would lead me into crowd ed rooms and late hours, which are inju rious to health aud usefulness. 2. Dancing would lead me into close contact with very promiscuous company and "evil cominuuicatious corrupt good manners." 3. Dancing would require me to use and pernit freedom with the other sex, which I believe to be wrong. 4. 3Iy parents and friends would be anxious ibout me if I were out late, keep, inir company with they know not who. 5. 3Iiiiittcrs and good people general, disapprove of dancing, ana I think it L not safe to set myself against them ; if a thing be even doubtful I wish to be on the safe side. 6. Dancing has a bad uamc, aud I mean to study things that are pure, lovely aud of good report. 7. Daucing is generally accompanied with drinking, and I see d inking produ ces a great deal of evil. 8. I am told danciug is a great tempta tion to youug men, and I do not wish to 'have anything to do with leading them astray, . . 9. Dancing unfits the mind for serious reflection and prayer, and I mean to do nothing that will estrange me from my God and Saviour. 10. There are plenty of graceful exer cises and cheerful amusements, which have none of the objections connected with thcra that lie against dancing. SOCIAL WINE DRINKING. The Christian Secretary gives the fol lowing graphic, illustration cf the terrible results often arising from social indul gence in the wine cup : At an Episcopal convention, a discuss ion on temperance brought up the "wine question." A part ot the clergy advo cated its entire disuse aud a part took the other side. At length an itiEuential cler gyman arouse and made a vehement argu ment iu favor of wine, denouncing the radical reformers for attempting to banish this Liken of Loppitality from use. When he had resumed his scat, a lsyman, trem bling with emotion, rose and asked if it was allowed for him to speak. The (.'hair having signified that he would la heard, he said : "3Ir. Moderator, it is not my purpose, in rising, to answer the learned argument you have just listened., to Hy ..oLiett i- moie humble, and I hope more practical. I once knew a father in moderate circum stances, who was at much inconvit'iencc to educate a beloved son at college. Here this son became dissipated; but after he had graduated and returned to his father, the influence of home, actirig upon a gen erous bature, actually reformed him. The father Wis overjoyed at the prospect that his cherished hopes of other days were still to bo realized. Several years passed, when the young man, having completed his professional ttudy, and being about to leave his father to establish himself in business, was invited to dine with a neigh boring clergyman, distinguished for his hospitality and social qualities. At this dinner wine was introduced, and offered to this young man, who refused ; pressed upon him. and again refused. This was repeated, and the young man ridiculed fcr his peculiar abstinence. The young man was strong enough to overcome "ap petite, but ho could Dot resist ridicule. He drank, and fell, and from that moment became a confirmed drunkard, and long since has found a drunkard's grave. "3Ir. 3Ioderator," continued the old man, with streaming eyes, "I am that lather ; and it was- at the table of the clergyman who has just taken his scat that his token of hospitality ruined the son I shall never cease to mourn." TIIE JEWESSES- Foctancs asked Chateaubraind "if he couhl assign 4 reason why the women of the Jewish race were so much handsomer than the men '!" To which Chateaubraiud gave the following poetical and Christian one : ''The Jewesses have escaped the curse which alighted upon their fathers, hus bands aad sons. Not a Jewess was to be seen among the crowd of priests and rab ble who insulted the Son of God, scourg- j cd Him, crowned Hiui with thorns, and subjected Him to ignominy and the agocy of the cross. The women of J udca be lieved in the Savior, and assisted and soothed Him uuder afflictions. A woman uf Bethany poured on His heal precious ointment, which she kept in a vase of ala baster. The sinner annotated His feet with perfumed oil, and wiped them with her hair. Christ, ou his part, extended j His mercy to the Jewesses. Ho raised I from tho dead the son of tho widow ol Nain, aud 3Iartha'a brother, Lazarus. He cured Simon's mother-iu-law, and the women who touched the hem of -His gar ment. To the Samaritan women he v.as ... a spring 01 living water, ana a compas sionate judge to the women iu adultry. The daughters of Jerusalem wept over Ilim the holy women accompanied Him to Calvary, brought balm and spices, and weeping, sought Him in the sepulchcr. Women, why weepest thou?' His first appearance, after nis resurrection, was to Mary 3Iagdalcne. He said to her '3Iary.' At the sound of HL voice 3Iary Jldglrja.. Icnc's eyes were opened, and she auswer- ed, '3Iaster' Tho reflection of some very beautiful ray must have rested on the Srow of the Jewesses." TllEY have a way of "putting things" out west that, to say the least of it, is very expressive. Among resolutions of ate Union Convention in Illinois we find the followiocr : KcsoJced, That "treason must be made idious," but that it cannot be made odious by giving rebels seats in Congress, nor by feeding Jefferson Davis on poached eggs and fried oysters. 'THE DELFfi ATES FROM MASSACM ETT3 AND SOUTH CAROLINA WALKING ARillN ARM." Such ia the eanouuement tnado in tha Je2 Iavis Convention, and many of our readers will ask, "who are these distin guished g-atlemen V We can isonu them. The Massachusetts man is ocj Gen. Couch, who had commisd "of tha Pennsylvania 3Iilitia during the' rebel raid ia this State, and who at that tiuia tetired very suddenly, with a large body of infantry, from Chartiber-burg, so that .1 fow rebel cavalry might burn tLe town, aad who after he arrived ia llarrislurg, had a train of cars with a locomotive at tached and steam, up standing ready for a whole week in the Lebanon Valley depot awaiting the arrival of his rebel friend iu Ilan isburg, thus locnalle him to leave very suddenly an 1 give the invader pos session cf the town. Tie rebels didu'c get quit here. O'cn. Couch retired to the shades of rjaasaehusntti where ha ran as the Coppethcad candidate for Gov crnor last fa!! and received iejs votes than any other man of that strips ever polled in that State. Lie his now turned up aa a delegate to a convention cf his owu rebel friends and makes himself ridicu lous by walking arm in arm with the rebel Gov. Orr of South Carolina. Abetter pair of rebels could not have met on that interesting occasion. Can't some of our Philadelphia friends inform us if Gen. Couch had his pacts stuck iu his boots and spurs on. YALLANDIGLIAM HAS AT LENGTH GOT L'I3 PRICE! The rrcsident has had a rough time dispensing his patronage, first, to get dough faces into tho Rebel Johnson Con vention; and second, to keep noisy North ern sympathizers with treason out of that assemblage. The patronage of the post offices and custom houses was used with a lavish hand to secure men of seeming patriotism to act as delegates. It was ex pected that in purchasing men to degrade themselves to this service the trouble would end. But in this, Rebel Johnson liuds he wa3 mistaken. lie must now use the patronage of the State depart ment to cajole abnoxious customers like Vallandigham from forcing Limseif into the convention. Vallandigham, who is esteemed toofuu! to sit in a conclave of traitors, is induced to withdraw from that body on the clTcl of a mission as a diplomatic a?ent abroad. .Mark the fact ! The man who ia unfit to sit as a representative in a conclave of political adventures is to be ccccpted by V. illiam II. Seward, by order of tha President, A. Johnson, to represent tha nation at a loretgn court; hin will the humiliation eod ?
