Yet, for the purpose of.having some kind of a' government, this was submitted to. Eat; boldened by this ac,quieseence, Brown low's followers commenced the intrtinc tion of measures for depriving a large par tion of the citizens of the State of the elective franchise and of eligibility 'to all offices, so that they might be secured for all time to come for themselves and , their followers. Un,willing to act in such mat tees •without the consent of their constitu ents, some fifteen or more members re signed their seats, and new' elections were ordered, in which, for the most part, the same members were returned. On pre senting their credentials they were refer red to a committee, which; after a long de. lay, reported against the admissiciii . of nearly all of those wbo had resigned and been re-elected, on 'the sole ground that in their opinion they were refractory.— This monstrous ruling emptied some fif teen seats.

The resolution came up for consideration from the Committee on Military Affairs, and was pushed to . a vote, ithout debate or delay, under the operation of the pre-. vious question. I Mr. • Raymond, of the New York Times, Chairman of the Is4ation ki Executive Committee of the Republican party, notices this most extraordinary movement — on the part of the Radidils, and remarks : • Although no debate was bad on this resolution, members were urged to vote for it by direct conversvtional appeals on the- floor on 'the part of the few wild were privy to introduction. Some were told that it was necessary to enable the South ern loyalists to protect themselves ; oth ers, that it was simply a ,matter of. detail in the War Pepartment ; others, that the aims must `be taken out of the hands of the President; and others, that it was pro posed at tht* instance of the Secrstary of War.

Wno ASS ros Twarrorts Now? —During the whole period of Mr. Lincoln's admin istration, the epithet !'You're a Traitor" was constantly on the lips of. a class of blackguard, low-bred Republicans. They applied it to every Democrat whO, did not believe that all that Mr. Lincoln did, said and dreamed, was entirely right and prop er. They were unwilling that any man should differ with the President in any particular. lie was "the government," they said, and the man who didn't , sup port the government-through thick and thin was .'`a traitor," acccrding to their way of thinking, and deserved hanging at the first lamp-post. Now, then, what was sauce for the goose ought to be sauce for , the sander. If Dlr. Lincoln was the goveninent then, surely Andrew Johnson is the government now, and should be sustained by every loyal citizen.

Tun Mosans oP WasumaroN. The Washington correspondent of the N. Y. t'ateilman, e religious journal, thus depicts the state of morals at the national capital under radical rule: Licentiousness and drunk( nness are the prominent Features of Washington life this season. 3temhers of Congress spend their afternoons and evenings in billiard and drinking saloons, and their nights in houses of ill.f.sme or assignation. Five sevenths of the Republican ralembers,of Congress snood their nights in licentious dissipation. While a majority . of the Democratic members are working for the good of the country, the ,opposition, rely ing on its majority goes in for a "good time," so-called. Washington. under Abo lition auspices. is the most• licentious, de praved city in the Union. Drinking sa loons. gaMbling houses. houera of prosti• tution and assignation are about the Capi• tril as side-shows aro about a•circus. Har lots and niggers occupy the galleries, smile on their pet members on the floor, and throw kisses to the "God and moral ity" representatives of honest constitu encies.

Harvey has been for the last four years and is now Minister for the United States at Portugal, but in a pri vate and unofficial letter, which became public, he expressed approval of the 'pol icy of the President, and his dissent front the action of Congress. Congress bad not the power to remove him from office, but without permitting debate, explanation or deity; it forced through the Heusi?, by its usual =Verity, a proviso that be should receive no farther compensation for . his services in that capacity. The Constitu• tion provides that Congress shall have nothing to do with the - appointment or re- , moral of office holders, but the House rs• sorts to this method of evading the Con stitution, and that only because Mr. Har vey disapproves of their policy and thinks the opiniotts of the President are more conducive to the welfare of the nation.--:- . The outcry of Congress against removals from office is thus proved to arise from no sense of justice and principle, but only from the selfish desire of retaining,th9 honors and emoluments of office forthein selves and their friends.
