'-'JVWe have little doubt, the Democracy
generally will endorse "'Bricks!, .opinion of
Gen. Sherman. The Copperheads, hated
- and despised the gallant defenders of, the
flag of the Unioa daring the Rebellion, and
their hatred for "the boys in blue" is now
aa intense as ever and hence, they contin

"vandals, bummers, thieves, vagabonds, and

, J We hear occasional expressions of regret
that 'the name of '.'Democrat'' is retained in
thi present division of parties. It might
have been better for some reasons; that the
-opposition of the- Radical rule bad organ
ized under some other watch-word, but the
last is, that the name Democrat was retain
ed : at the North, during the war, by the
friends of constitutional liberty, and hence
the surrender found our only allies in that
quarter enrolled under that banner. Let
our Southern friends of the old Whig party
remember that the word Democracy does
. not now mean what it did in by-gone days. ;
. Past ' issues are dead ; old party lines are
wiped put; the true and.'only meaning now
attached to it is that- Conservatism which if
engaged in the" terrible struggle with the Ja
cobins of our distractedcountry. ' 'l ', J,
Democracy has become a jewel of great
value at the South, because the Democrats
were the acknowledged allies of treason while
it was in rebellion ; agaiqstthe Government.!
This. is what every- Republican knows,, and
what every Southern Democrat denies, but
the proof of . t he alliance-comes from tho
South where it is the most highly valued.

v The Majority Eeport,
S On our; first pagei to-day, we publish the
majority report of the J ndiciary Committee,
which favors the impeachment of President
Johnson' Ine referring to this report the
Philadelphia iV, of Isdvember "thjsays
'IropeochBient under our Constitution w
not a punishment for crime, but only a means
to protect the nation .against Executive
treachery, userpation, or imbecility. The
majority report of the Judiciary-Com mit-
ice, recommending the impeachment of
Andrew Johnson, is merely an expression
of their opinion that the safety of the coun
try demands the removal ot the r resident,
from a position where he is capable of much
miehief, and in which he has committed
wrongs that cannot be remedied or in future
prevented by ordinary means. . , : : '
"The manner in which the country has
received this most momentous report is the
strongest evidence ot our national strength
and integrity that could be given. In oth
er countries and in other times the removal
of the chief executive has never been accom
plished except in convulsion and ruin. ;Tbe
attendant circumstances of such a change
have always been war, blood-shed and dis
aster, -:'(.;',,-
Here we calmly Kok such a prospect in
the face unmoved. Business is not disturb
ed ; men are not excited ; even gold, - that
tremulous pulse of the nation, does not fluc
tuate. - lhe people are prepared to discharge
their; presidential agent, and there is less
feeling or excitement throughout the coun
try than is aroused by an ordinary county
murder trial, There could be do greater
tribute to our national power, i. ;
"It is evident from this fact, if nothing
more, that whatever is done by the Amen
can people in this case will be done as a
matter ot duty, and not in anger or passion,
although they have much to be justly angry
with, and the blood ot hundreds ot thou
sands calls for vengeance. - '
"The report of the Judiciary Committee
presents some thirty counts, specific high
crimes and misdemeanors, on which they
ground their recommendation for impeach
ment. On come of these, as, for instance,
the usurpation of the functions of Congress
in attempting to reconstruct the Southern
States, in 1865, in his own dictatorial way,
the evidence is matter of common fame, and
all are familiar with it. On many of the
other points the public will demand to ree
the testimony taken before the commit tee
about twelve hundred pages, we believe
before they are ready to pronounce their
judgment.
"in the calm arid unimpassioned manner
in which the press of -the country has ad
dressed itself to the preat question we have
an earnest 01 determined and honest action.
This movement for impeachment has not
been a mere party game or cry raised to car
ry a fleeting point.- It is -significant that
the change of a vote in the committee which
determined their report in favor of impeftch
ment imi mmh after the elections. This
speaks volumes, lhe Republican party in
this thing are acting solely from a sense of
duty tot be nation. 1 hey are not swayed
by party passion or prejudice, they will not
be governed by a party disaster.' Conscious
that our audience is posterity.and that what
ever, we f wiil pass into history and the
law books as a rule of action for the. future
government of the land; we are certain that
decorum and diguity, : prudence, and even
moderation, will mark the progress of this
great trial for such it is even if the crim
inal should not be formally arraigned.
'' "Impartial justice is what the country
now . expects to see meted out to Andrew
Johnson, and it will not do for Congress to
flinch from or avoid the demand.' The in
flexible determination of the people on this
point, and their resolute intensity of purpose,
is manifested in the passionless and unexci
ted frame of mind with -which tbey rifw
the proceedings so far." .-

sponsible for the article. Morey denied the
authorship, but told Burbridge that, if lie
came to Cyhthiaua, he would show him the
author. ' They separated, when Morey bor
rowed a pistol and went about the Btreets
half 'a day inquiring for Burbridge. .They
met again, and renewed the discussion about
the article. Morey called Burbridge a liar,
when Burbridge struck him with a cane.
Morey tried to get out his pistol, but Bur
bridge anticipated him, drew a pistol and
shot him in the right side, producing a
painful but not dangerous wound. Bur-

The financial situation grows clearer. The

and cutting down expenditures, v Every

This is the" cry from the whole West and
South; and not the least curious sign is to

quarters taking the lead. , The discussion
will be' animated, but : tfW indications are
that the result will be satisfactory.- 'Let us
have a fixed system--one that ' will, stand
without constant ' changes and the great
machine of government will soon settle into
the old grooves in the North and into- the
new ones in the South. ;' ..
Many of the Southern ; politicians in
Washington admit the impropriety of re

out for some distinguished secessions to the
Radical column..

The impeachment testimony Is much
commented upon, especially that in regard
to the Southern railroads, that of Secretary
Stanton, and that of Commissioner Rollins.
The fact that Mr. Stanton steadily favored
the plan of dismembering the old rebel gov
eminent, and that hundreds , of millions
have been lost to the Government by the
surrender of valuable property to the rebels,
and by the persistent appointment of dis
honest collectors and assessors, .make up on
ly a part of a very black record.
