Wednesday, Apr. 1, 1868.
Jlemocratic stat£ ficM
Auditor General,
CHARLES E. BOYLE, of Fayette.
Surveyor General,
Gen. WELLINGTON ENT, of Columbia.
A Republican U. S. Senator on Gen'l
Grant.
In the United States Senate, May 6th, j
1802, in reply to Mr. Sherman, of Ohio,
speaking of the battle of rittsburg landing,
Rev. J as. Harlan, Senator from lowa, said :
" From all that I can learn on the sub
ject, Ido think that General Grant is fit
to command a great army in the field. * *
" The lowa troops have been in battle
repeatedly under the command of General
Grant. They have no confidence in his
capacity and fitness for the high position
he now holds. They regard him as the
author of the useless slaughter of many
hundreds of their brave comrades in arms.
It is not necessary, or is it right, to coin- I
pel them to serve under him. The speech
of the Senator from Ohio might, if unno
ticed, induce those in authority to contiuuc
him in the field.
" I understand he has been virtually
suspended, that he now really has no com
mand, that each division and army corps
of the Western Department is under com
mand of another Genera!, and the whole
under the command of Geneial Ilalleck,
that General Grant is second in command
of the whole, which is, of course, merely
nominal. In my opinion he ought not to J
have multiplied thousands of men placed
in his hands after the record which he has
made. And the only practical tendency
of that part of the speech of thej Senator ;
from Ohio, would be to induce the Presi
dent to assign him an active command.—
This I cannot consent to have done in j
the presence of my countrymen, maimed |
and slaughted, as I believe, through his |
carelessness or incompetency. I say this |
nut on account of any public or private ;
grievance of a per>onal nature. * * *
* If my convictions are correct, it
would be a crime for iue to remain silent,
and suffer influences to originate in the !
Senate chamber which may result in re
storing a General to an active command
whom I, and the people I in part repre
sent, deem unwortliv of such a trust.
*♦' * *
And lie shall not with my consent' be
continued to command. There is nothing
in his antercedents to jnstiy a further trial |
of his military skill. At Bcimout lie com
mittcd an egregious and unpardonable mil- i
itary blunder, which resulted in almost
annihilating an lowa regiment.
At Fort Donelson, the right wing of,
our army, which was under his immediate ,
command, was defeated and'diiven back
several miles from the enemy's works. — |
The battle was restored by General Smith, j
the enemy's works were stormed, and thu j
a victory was fiualh won. And so on the
battle field of Shiloh, his army was com
pletely surprised as I believe, from all the
facts I can procure, on Sunday, and no
thing but the bravery of the men fighting j
by regiments and brigades saved the army j
from utter destruction. The battle was I
afterward restored and conducted by Gen.
Buell and other Generals, who came on '
the field during the evening and night,;
and our forces ultimately succeeded in j
completely routing tho enemy. Now sir
with such a record, those who continue
General Grant in an active command, will,
in my opinion, carry on their skirts the 1
blood of thousands of their slaughtered j
countrvmen. \\ ith mv convictions, I can
neither do it myself, nor silently permit
others to do it. —(See Congressional i
Globe ;2d Session, Thirty-seventh Con- ]
gress, pages 2,036, and 2,037.)
Was not Senator Harlan right ? Did no! i
bis misgivings come true ? Do not those
who continue Gen. Grant tn active Com-;
raand crimson their skirts with the blood j
of thousunds and hundreds of thousands of
their slaughtered countrymen. Read the j
history of the reckless, cruel, unpardonable
and brutal slaughter of a hundreds thous
ands of their slaughtered country men in
the battle of tho Wilderness so great was
the slaughter of Northern soldiers, that it
has been truly said " Grant entered Rick
j mondwrr a bridge of human bones. "
Verily the prediction of Senator Ilarlan
j was fearfully verified.
A bill has been introduced into
Congress to abolish the office of Adjutant
General of the Army. The reason for
this is, that the President has appointed
l an officer to fill it whom Congress don't
i like. This is a fair specimen of the set
; tied and comprehensive wisdom by which
in very many things is governed.
: The minister to Rome was not a favorite
| with Congress, so the mission was abolish
i ed. Our minister to Portugal, in a private
! letter, spoke disrespectfully of Congress,so
his salary was withheld. The President
is not popular, therefore it is proposed to
abolish the Presidency. Republican in
stitutions are not strengthened or recom
' mended to the world at large by such
j demonstrations as these.

i er, ever had more fear of the law, than the
' present radical rump Congress. Ilence
i their attempts to deprive the Supreme
i Court of all jurisdiction.
Impeachment
The answer of the President put in
on the 23rd, to the articles of Impeach
ment presented, would cover eight or
teD columns of this paper ; and for want
of space to give full we propose to
state briefly the substance of it. To the
First article, which is in reference to the
removal of Stanton, the President reiter
ates thc'statcments and arguments, already
published in our columns, in his message
to the Senate upon that subject: putting
it in legal shape and form.
To the Second article which charges the
appointment of General Thomas as Secreta
ry of War, the President admits the ap
pointment, denies that he violated the
the Constitution or any law of Congress
by so doing, and maintains and will in
sist,
1. That at the date and delivery of
said writing there was a vacancy existing in
the office of Secretary for the Department
of War.
2. That, notwithstanding the Senate
of the United States was then in session,
it was lawful and according to long and
well established usage to empower and
authorize the said Thomas to act as Se
cretary of War ad interim,
3. That if the said act regulating the
tenure of civil offices be held to be a
valid law, no provision of the same was
violated by the issuing of said order or by
the designation of said Thomas to act as
Secretary of War ad interim.
To the Third article he answers, that
General Thomas was authoized and em
powered to act as Secretary of War ad
interim, and whether the same amounts
to an appointment or mere designation,
lie deuies Laving violated the law or
the Constitution. To the Fourth article,
charging that he and Thomas proposed
to get possession of the War Department
by threats or by intimaidtien, he puts in a
positive and ulitinct denial, and that the
article is insufficient in making specific
statements.
To the Fifth article, charging conspira
cy to hinder the execution of the " Civil !
tenure act" he puts in a denial; avers that
Stanton was not Secretary of War at the
time mentioned ; and the want of a specific
allegation. To ths Sixth article charging
a conspiracy on the 21st of February ISGB
to take possession of the War Office by
force, the President puts in a denial both
as to the intent set forth, and as to the vio
lation of any law on the subject. To tbe
Seventh articlf, he avers he never did con
spire to take unlawful possession of the
War Office, or did in any act commit ra
high crime or misdemeanor.
To the Eighth article, alleging an intent
unlawfully to control the military appropri
ation, the President denies that in appoint
ing Thomas he had any such purpose, j
avers that there was a vacancy in the'
department, and that he disired to vindi- j
cate bis authority as President, and to
bring the question before the Supreme
Court. To the Ninth article, charging a
conspiracy with General Emory, he gives j
his note to the General, the conversation,!
and the purpose of the interview, and his
construction of the law. To the Tenth
article alleging statements in his speech
to the Philadelphia Convention Commit
tee' ani to the citizens at Cleveland Ohio,
derogatory to Congress ; he denies the !
charge and refers to the speeches them-1
selves, and not to extracts from them or
recollections of them ; and claims the
right as President or as a citizen at all
times and in all places to speak his mind
on all subjects, that the occasions of the
speeches were not sought by liim ; and
that in any case, the making of them was
not in any wise an official act, for which
he is amenable to impeachment.
To tbe Eleventh article, charging that;
h denied tbe authority of Congress to
legislate, or propose constitutional amend
ments because certain States were unrep
resented ; the President denies that he
said so, bnt avers that it is not a full
Congress ; and clasms his right as a citi
zen to hold and speak his opinion on that
as on any other subject, without question,
inquisition or impeachment or inculpation
in any form or manner therefore.
Election News.
As a general rule, but little political in
formation can be gained from the Spring
elections. Here and tbere, only, contests
are made between parties. In places large
ly Democratic or largely republican,where
it is aseless to contest, and where the peo
-1 pie arc selected for positions for mutual
convenience and benefit, there can be no
: estimate made as to party strength. Yt here
j contests arc made, however, it is a legiti
mate matter of record.
IIARRISBURG, March 20th. —The De
mocracy elected their city ticket to-day by
an average majority of five hundred. This
| is a Democratic gain over last fall of three
! hundred and twenty-five (325). A full
vote was polled. Everybody is too jubi
l hint fur this sphere.
I YORK, I'a., March 20th.—David Small,
' the Democratic candidate, was elected
Chief Burgess to-day by three hundred
and ninety-six majority. This is the larg
est Democratic majority ever given in

. thirty-eight (38).
TIHSVILLK, March 20.—At the city
' elections held to-day in Corry and Titus
; ville, the Democrats elected the Mayors
and a majoiity of the members of Coun
' cils in both places. At the last election,
' Corry gave Williams (Had.) ninety-two
| majority.
BEDFORD, March 20. —At the election
i to-day the Democrats carried this fcorongh
by sixty-five majority, a gain of forty-one
! over last fall.
, WILKESUAUKK, March 21. —The elec
tion here yesterday was a complete IXm
j ociatic triumph, resulting in a majority for

I Democratic majority of 78 in the Second
j Ward, a gain of 35 since previous elec
tion.

j held on Friday at Marietta, Jjancastcr Co.
the Democrats carried the whole borough
ticket. This is the first Democratic vic
tory for years in Marietta.
WASHINGTON, March 24. —In this
borough, on last Friday, the Democrats
| made a clean sweep of everything. The
entire ticket was elected,and the gain over
; last spring is large. At the election last
] fall, Williams (Radical) received a major
| ity of 22 in this town,
j DAUPHIN, March 24.—At the election
held here on last Friday, for borough and
township officers, the entire Democratic
| ticket was elected. There were three
j candidates for Judge in the field—Demo
' eratic, Radical, and Independent. The
Democrats elected their candidate by a
| majority of 71 over the Radical candidate,
i and 54 over both. As the Independant
candidate was also a Democrat, this wo'd
increase the majority to 88. The Demo
cratic majority at the last election was
i only 4.
BLOOMSBURO, March 24. —0n Friday
last "we met the enemy and they are ours."
| Our majority is fifty-seven. This result
shows a democratic gain of forty-one over
last fall. The Radicals have only two
townships left in Columbia county. Thev
i are about capitulating to the triumphant
; Democracy.
The election which took place at Marys
i ville, Dauphin County, on Friday last, re
sulted in the success of the Democratic
ticket. Samuel Stiasbaugb (Democrat) ;
was elected Chief Burgess. Three out of
the tour Coun oilmen on the Democratic;
ticket were elected, as also the Judges of j
Election, three out of four School Direct
ors, the Assessor, Constable, &c. At the
eletion of 1807 the lladieals were victori
ous, but the Democracy went to work in :
earnest, and carried most of their candi- ■
dates bv aecidcd majorities.
Col. John McUrtary, the Democratic !
candidate, was elected Chief Burgess of |
Middle-town, Dauphin county, or, I* rid ay
last, by a majority of ninety-one. At t.:°

thirty-one. The Radicals elected their J
Judge only by a desperate effort.
The spring elections m Greene County j
resulted in unprecedented Democratic vie
tories. The Radicals only carried two
election districts in the county. That came
near being a clean sweep.
In New Texas Township, in Allegheny i
County, the whole Democratic ticket was
elected by increased majorities.
The election at Easton last Friday pass
ed off quietly. The vote shows large Dem
ocratic gains.
•The Democracy of Elizabcthtown, Lan- j
caster County, made a most gallant fight
on Fiiday last,and gained a signal triumph, j
The chief contest was for Burgess,and the
the Democratic candidate was elected by
a majority of fifteen. The Democratic
Judge, of Election was also elected by a
majority of eleven. The borough has
been steadfastly opposed to us heretofore.
