TOE AUTIOL64 Olt 1111PRACHMIDIT:
The articles' of imveachment of Preqi
dent Johnson, of which Mr. Ashley was
delivered in the House of Representatives
on Monday, look well on paper ; but We
fail to see that they would not have sp.
plied with greikt force to the late lament
ed Lincoln, whose honestylfew have ever
disputed. Examine them seriatim :
1. He [Andrew Johnson) has corruptly
used the-appointing power.
President Lincoln, if we recollect aright,
upon his aciession to slice rimosed every
honest official in the country who did not
agree with him in politics, snd it is genes-
Atli believed that tberhesd of an impor
tant bureau at Washington was flitted his
position Shortly after presenting the Pres
ident with a silver tea-servioet It - is also
tiebeved that he appointed a pirm to the
office of Chief-Justice in order to dispose
of him as a rival for the succeeding Pepsi:
deney, and to secure in the Snprerde
Court a political element of a maim'
stamp. ,
2. He [Andrew Johnsmi] has corruptly
disposed of public property of the United
States. •
' There have been reports, that, 'during
Mr. Lincoln's occupancy of the 'White
Iffutae, a number of articles of plate and
furniture mysteriously disappeared, which
reports Mr. Tbadtleus Stevens gave public,
utterance to in the Rouse of Represents-
tires, and more than intimated that the
aaid'reporta had eta:mantis, foundation
3. He (Andrew Johnson . ] has corruptly
interfered in elections and committed
acts std. conspired with others to eammit
achy which, in contemplation otthe Con
stitution, are high crimes and misde
meanors.
Daring President Lincoln's lerm•of
,flee, it was generally understood that elec..
lions were Interfered. with by the direct
connivance, if not by the direction of the
adaiinistration. It is a matter of history
that soldiers were thrown into Maryland
pending an election, who prevented duly
qualified citizens from 'voting for Demo.
erotic candidates, thereby securine-the
.election of Republican candidate,. It is,.
further, a matter of history, that-at the
election of President - in 1864 soldiers be.

Lrricoln was the Commander-in.tlbief not
on_y v_o}ed where tbs. lo w a Ttiq:
"demo, but Voted again Ind again on elec
tion day. e. g.. At Indiairmolig, Indiana.
It is, still further, duly recorded that, by
the order as . well as the consent of Presi.
dent Limcoln,newsnapers were suppressed
and citizens of the United States were ar.
rested without warrant, condemned with.
out trial, and Imprisoned without being
sentenced which .deede, contemPla
"tion or the COnstitution, are high crimes
"and mi,demeenore." - •
To make the point complete, it is only
net to add that. had a member, of
the Hons'e of Representatives proposed to
impeach the President daring Mr. .pin
cidn's administration on such slight pre
texis as those upon 'which Mr. Ashley hai
founded his proposed articles of impeach-
ment o' !'President Johnson, he 'would
have beenl hurried off to the Old Capitol
Prison within twelve hours 'afterivarde. if
not sent out of the country.—New York

commuted a snit - against Hi., Pomeroy,
.editor of the Democrat, for libel, laying
damages at one hundred thousand dollars..
If - Brick Pomeroy pleads his side in per

Dr. J. P. Cirdirajt, one of the Boston
- School Committee, states that, during the
past nine menthe, 13,744 cases of corporal
punishment have - peen reported by the
teachers of Bwton. This would make the
number for the Year about 18,000. Yet
Boston lased, and wevs, and wails, and
will not be comforted, when a colored bay
is flogged for crime at the South, in pur
suance of law l- .
An impression has gained possession of
the minds of:Congresamen that the-Presk
dentas frightened at this clamor shout im
peachment, and thet by keeping it up they
will ultiniately force him to adopt their
eiews. But in this they are mistaken.
There is no scare in the President: He is
simply satisfied that-Congress cannot lin.
peach him if they wouldeuid would not,for
any existing Cause, if they could. He de
flea them to the effort.—New York Herald.

And one spare bed within it- -
-And if you'd begirt life aright,

Some think they must have pictures, John,
Superb and costly. too ;
Your wife will be a picture, John, .
Let that suffice for you.
Remember how the wise man said,
A tent and lore within it
Is better than a splendid house
With bickering! every minute.
And one word ea to cooking, John,
Your wife can do that best ;
For love, to make the biscuit rise,
Is better far than yeast.
No matter if each day you don't.
Bring turkey to the table. • •
'Twill better relish by and by.
When you are better able,
And now when yoa are salaried, John,
Don't try to ape the rich ;
It took wavy a 1011ot:two year
To gain their envied niche;
And if you'd gala the summit, John,
Look well to your beginning,
And then will all you win repay
The care and toil of winning.
An Inside View of the Senatorial
Contest.
[Special OW of the Pittsburgh esuimemlal, &Weil 3
HaatiiBßUßO, Jan 11, 18q7.
,eYou ask me to describe what has occur
redL Harrisburg since the- meeting of
the gislature and which culminated in
the c aucus nominal ion for United States
Senator of Mr. Cameron last. night. To.
describe it is impossible. Dickens, with
all his ability to depict.low life, could not
describithe degradation of the scene, nor
fell von of the mental and moral depravi
ty of those who have figured. Warren,
with his master stroke of 'Gnomon,"
could not portray the tortuous Movements
of the reckless politician who has triumph
ed. His path to office has not been, as
other politicians,_ strewn with broken
promises and violated pledges, but' he
paved hie way upon a sc4id basis and mov
ed to victory amid the plaudits of his hired
inibererts. - From the instant that Mr.-
Stevens' adherents madly aided to break
down Gov. Curtin by aiding Mr. Camer
on's friends in the organization of the
House and the election of Speaker Glass;
it was apparent to Curtin's friends that
the resoorksiMity of the election . of Mr.
Cameron must rest ispon Mr. Stevens, as
ibis move .had been-made under his direct-
Hon, and when the fatal error was plainly ,
I
seen in the rapidly adyncing . fortune. or
men eagerly en.
desvored to undo what had been so stu
pidly done. They vainly endeavored , to
recover their lost ground, but the Mow
known betrayal of -their members the
House rendered this almost impossible. In
baste, Mr. Stevens was called from Wash
ington, and notwithstanding his letter of
the day before, declaring that be would
not come. on Tuesday he arrived. Gener
ai Moorhe-d, from your district, also ar
rived, and as the avowed friend of Mr.
Stevens and the bitter personal opponent
of Mr. Oimeron, and feeling - thatwith him
also will rest the responsibility of aiding
to defeat the only man who could have
been beaten by Mr. Cameron, goes to work
to recover the lost ground. Hopes are
now entertained that the combined-voice
of the potential colloties of Allegheny and
Lancaster will. not be- utterly disregarded
in a - Republican- caucus. The known
power of their wet majorities, and the
sagacity of their leaders, gives encour
agement to the belief that something can
be done.
What does it all &mount to ? - Mr. Stev
ens has an interview with his delegation :
charges the members of the House with a
bought betrayal and denounces them. De
fiandytin answer. they say, that "nobody
knows it The Old Commoner declares
that "the boys in the street know it."
He sends for a Senator from a South
eastern county, instructed for him, and
tells him be is young, and has &character
yet, and that he "ought to take it back
to them." The youthful Senator ! with ed
octagon, a family name, and bright pros
pacts, retires unimpressed by Mr. Stevens,
and subsequently votes for Mr. Cameron.
Mr. Stevens has an interview with (lover
nor Curtin,' deplores what his men have
done,..and urges the Governor toloin him
in &revolutionary movement. "Break up
the caucus ;" "go to the people," cries
the enraged old hem from Lancaster.
The Governor calmly replies: "The con
dition of things may be new to 'yen; sir ;
but everybody here has known it for a
Week s and I cannot aid in all movement
which will break up the party. My name
is with my friends, and I must abide the
issue, whatever- I may believe as to the
means which have been employed to pro
duce this result The people have already
elected enough members to'elect me, and
if they 'don't vote for me, their responsi
bility is to their constituents. I was done
when I aided, with whet humble power I
possess, to carry the State last fall in a
convass of unusual bitterness and requir
ing great exertions on my part." And so
waste away Tuesday eveningand Wednes;
day, Cameron's adherents still motive. and
defections in the Steyens and Curtis ranks
still being, made, and the means openly
talked of on the streets and in the bar
rooms. _"Bad I bad I" exclaims a rhino:
media member ; "no show for us. Well !
well! I'll vote once for.Cowart, and then
I'll -go for Spinner, like the Republi
cans;'
Wednesday night.. Hr. Forney has ar
rived. He °knee, he says. to protest
against this great wrong. He will char

"mammon of unrighteoueness." Men
young in life, with every professional
prospect bright before them, went down
under the wand of the enchanter. A Sen
ator from the Northwest declared his de
termination to vole for Cameron, although
he did not believe that twenty of his con
stituents were for him. A member of the
Souse from the same region was allowed
to vote for Curtin, notwithstanding he
bad betrayed him in the organiattioo. A
member of -the House, from a ,distriet ad
joining yours on the north,' betrayed his
cooetituenis and wont for Cameron, al
though he had declared withiii a week
that be owed his electiott.-to Curtin and
Curtin's friend., and notwithstanding the
fact that several of his personal' and polit
ical friends were near him, beseeching
him CO to falsify his formes life and com
ranee a career of infamy.
The Philadelphians who were here
seemed to regard the violation of instme
none and the infamous conduct of their
members as unparall4led, and,tbeir indig
nation broke forth in every Assemblage
in towr. Men's names and =cunt. paid
were spoken trumpet - tongued. Mock

were suctioned off amid cheers and plaud

Tam Docros.—Everybody; knows the
doctor; a very important-person he is to
us all. - What could we do without him ?
He brings us into this world, and tries to
keep us as long as our bodies can hold
together and he is with us in that strange
and last hour, which shall come to us all,
when we must leave this world and go in
to the rfer.t. When we are well we per
haps think little about the doctor, or we
have our small joke at him and his drugs ;
but let anything go wrong with our body,
that wonderful tabernacle in which our
soul dwells—let any of its wheels go
wrong—then off we fly to him. If the
mother thinks her husband or child dy
ing, bow she runs to him and urges him
with her tears 1 bow she watches his face,
and follows his searching eye as he exam
ines the dear sufferer; how she wonders
what be thinks 1 what would she give to
know what be knows? how she wearies
for his visit I how a cheerful word front!
him makes her heart leap for joy, and
strength to watch over the bed of (filtrate ?
Her whole soul goes out to him in• un
speakable gratitude when he brings back
Coker from the power of the grate her hus
band or darling child. The doctor knows
many of our secrets, of our sorrows, which
no one else knows; how many lives and
hearts he carries in his heart and in his
hands I So . you see he is a very•impor
tent person, the doctor, and we should do
our best to make the moat of him, and do
our duty to him and to ourselves.
'Cos TYPO AND UPC EDITOR. —The lawyer
editor of a country paper.who wrote a
very "blind hand.' was frequently anon -
ed by compositors' inquiries concerning
words which they could not decipher.
One day a compositor, as little acquainted
with the disposition of this -editor as he
was with the hand-writing, ente.ed the
sanctum. and, holding the copy before his
,eyes, inquired what a certain crooked
mark stood for. 'The edito- did not wish
at that time to be interrupted, and ex
claimed, ''go to the devil." The compos
itor retired, not .•to his Satanic maje.ty,
bat to the ecmpoaing room. When the
editor read his- proof+ he had the pleasure
to see a line in his leading editorial read :
"lie (Mr. Webster) will, in all probability;
go to the devil." The copy was looked
for, and the crooked mark was found to
be "be nominated."
