A few months more and the Presidential campaign will open in all its vigor, with can didates in the field representing the distinct ive issues of each political organization, and committed plainly and unequivocally to their interests. _ - On both sides active preparations arc be ing made for the struggle, and it will un doubtedly lie one' of the most fiercely con tested in the history of the nation. Every . indication.of the' tithes points 'to- the most stOborn and unscrupulous resistance on the part of the Radicals against the efforts of the people to wrest from them the lawless power which they have seized to uphold 'their base purposes. The Democratic party begins the campaign under the most auspicious circumstances, with acomidence in success, an enthusiasm foribe cause, and a vigorous self reliance that has not been experienced . in many years. The late elections show conclusively that a vast majority of the nation are ready to es pouse ourstandard if we only prove faithful to our creed, and continue to stand firmly-by the interests of the country. But to make victory certain sothething more is necessary than-mere dependence up- on the truth of our principles. In the flush of self-confidenee, we are apt to forget what a vigilant enemy we have to overcome, and what desperate measures he Is apt to resort to to attain his ends. PolitiCal battles, like tho•se of a more bloody nature, depend for their re sults more on the skill,courage, determination and energy of the contesting foes than upon the sacredness of their cause, or the convictions of the participats. The' Dentocrhey of America have always stood forth as deVotedly attached to the Union, the Constitution and the wel fare of the country as 'they do to-day, yet for seven years they have been divested of power, and it is only when the people are aroused from their delusion by the imperilled condition of the public interests, that they have twain returned to us that confidence which it would hav'e been well if they had never Parted with. The all-important necessity of the day, on the part of our political friends is—work•! WORK!! WORK!!! We must be thoroughly orgdndzedand pre pared fur the campaign. Every man trust consider that he owes a riersorud duty in the matter,_as indeed he does, far there is no one so bumble, but he is in some way more or less "conceded in. the issues at stake. All the districts must be canvassed, so that we may know where it will be most advantageous to employ our energies. The young 'men must be encouraged to lend a helping hand. Those who have beeh led estray , must be brhught_ back to the fold, and DemocratiC arguments placed in their reach, that they may know the distinctive questions whidh divide par tieS, and no longer be misled fiy the wiles and falsehoods of the Opposition..-, What we have said before we now reiter ate, and intend reiterating until we have Waked the Democracy tp to a full.conscious ness of its truth, th t the _most effective weapon towards success is the wide distril tion of sound and straightfirreani total news papers. One good journal in a family will do more towards moulding its political convictions than all other influences; and fifty copies_ cir culated in iffiy locality for six months, will accomplish more efficient service than a doz en costlfmass meetings. The Democratic party has never displayed Matzen' in supporting its press that it 'need ed, and to that cause, as Much , as anything else, may be attributed its misfortunes during the bit ten years. In' all sections of the country—even in the midst of the strongest Democratic localities—the• Radical press is more liberally sustained than ours, and in many places the cotitrast is so great as al most to amount to a disgrace. . The time has come for these things to be. changed, and, for the- Democratic party to enter upon a new melted of warfare.

Reader, have you ever seriously thought of how glorious a fabric was the old Union ? Have'youyver reflected on the beauties of that simple Structure ot civil government that bath passed away like the baseless &brie of a vision ? 7. Have you ever Contemplated the fair pro portion of that temple of freedom, now crum bled.to the dust through .the corruption of the priests of the sanctuary ? • Have you ever !brined an adequate con ception of the benefit conferred on humanity by that highe4t triumph of man's genius, that broactest effort of man's philanthropy—the Union ? Have you ever realized the controlling in fluence exercised among , the nations of the earth by that original creation of American liberty—the Old, Union? Not alone was it a blessing to the dwellers beneath the starry tegis. Not alone was it the home of the weary and oppressed, who fled from the iron heel of tyranny, or front anarchy's dread blight Not alone was it the peculiar home and province of earth's unfortunates, ?alto gath ered to worship beneath its protection. Not alone to these, but by the magic of its name and the influence of italottv statesman ship it eierted an ameliorating influence on the condition Of those whose homes were on oilier continents, whose destinies were linked with other climes. To the dwellers by the Rhine, the Danube' and the Po; on the sunny plains of India, and the vine-clad - hills of Italy ; to those who dwell where the fairy isles of the Pacific sleep upon their coral beds, to the toiling Asiatic, as well as to the ambitious European, the name Of .America was synonymouS with the name of Liberty. The Old Union was the gift of the Creator to the human family—it was the luminary from which the rays of Liberty were to per meate to the remotest regions of the globe. With the fall of this majestic structure came the deep wailing from the myriad crushed hearts of Columbia's cbildred, who were mangled and torn by its dying convul sions. But they who went down amid the din and shock of contending armies ; they *lto died in the serried ranks of war • they whOse requiems were sung by the hi. iug bullets ; they who were ushered into eternity from the red fields of strife—they were not as deeply to he pitied as many who survived them. Ask of the thinly clad widow, shivering. over the fireless grate, vainly trying to warm her perishing babes—ask her why she is thus reduced to want and misery? Ask of the homeless orphan, imploring for shelter from the mighty blast, and a mouth ful ofifi:xxl to sustain his exhausting nature. • Ask of the maimed soldier, striving to eke out a scanty subskfenee from the grudging charity of tho purse-proud perren us. e, whose flaunting robes were purchased by trafileing in his blood—ask of these stricken ones, why they are reduced to this pitiable necessity— and ;they will tell you lit is because of the dreadful war that has compassed the destruc lion of that more than human edifice, the Old Union. The linion s of love. The Union of mutual respect and confi dence. The Union cemented by, the blood of pure patriots, and sanctioned hy the approval of Incorruptible statesmen. The Union thut was based on the affections of the people. The Union that was canonized in the hearts of all the friends of liberty. The Union that was the grandest practical illustrations , of the great truths of Democra cy. The Union that was dissevered and de stroyed by the fell spirit of Radicalism. The Unloh that was prostrated by the iron band of military power. The Union that was established by the Conservative, and destroyed by the Puritan. Democrats, freemen, is not the re-estab lishment of the Union as it was an undertak ing worthy of your nobler efforts ?

Limitation. WEBSTER'S REPLY TO LIATNE "But, sir, the people have wisely provided, in the Constitution• itself, a proper, suitable mode and tribunal for settling questions of Constitutional 'law. There 'are in the Con stitution grants of power to Congress, and restrictions on 'these powers. There are, also, prohibitions on the States. Some au thority must therefore necessarily exist, hay ing the ultimate jurisdiction to fix and as certain the interpretation of these grants, restrictions and prohibitions. The Constitu tion has itself, pointed out,. ordained and established that authority. How has it ac complished this great and essential end? By declaring, sir, that the Constitution, and the laws of the United States made in pursuance thereof shall be the supreme law of the land, anything in the Constitution 'or laws of any State to the contrary nrnwithitanding. "This, sir, was the first great step. By this the supremacy of the Constitution and laws,of the United States is declared. The people so will it. No State law can be valid which comes in conflict•with the Constitu tion, or any law of the United States passed inpursnance of it. 'But who shall decide this question of interference? Towhom lies the last appeal ? This, sir, the Constitution itself decides, also, by declaring 'that the ju dicial power shall extend to all cases arising under the Constitution and- laws of the United States.' These two provisions, sir, cover the whole ground. They are, in truth, the keystone of the arch. With these it is a Constitution ; without them, it is a confeder acy. In pursuance of these clear and ex press provisions Congress established, at its very first session, in the judicial aet, a mode for carrying them in full. effect, and 'for brin,g ing.all questions of Conititutional power to the final decision of the Supreme Court. It then, sir, becomes a government." An Historical Ileminieceuce. In 1678, Sir Thomas Osborne, Earl of Dan by, was tried on impeachment before the British House of Lords.

In conclusion, fellow citizens, while ilto impeachment of President Johnson closes my mouth upon the subject of his impeach ment, while delicacy and duty forbid me to speak upon that, my mouth is not closed, and no considerations of duty and delicacy will prevent me from speaking of another imneachmkt and before a tribunal more au gust than the Senate. In the name of Constitutional liberty, ift the name of our great ancestors who laid the foundation of this Government to secure liberty fortiemselves and for us, In the name of all who love that liberty, who are ready to struggle, and if need be, to die rather than allow it W ho overthrown, in the name of the coining generations and of that rare to which we -belong, and which has given to the world all its civilization. I do arraign and impeach the Radical policy of the present of thegh, crimes and misdemeanors. At the bar of the American people, in the pre.ience of high heaven and before the civil ized world, I impeach it, first. 11.4 a crime against the laws Of nature, which God, the Almighty has stamped upon the races of mankind:because it-attempts to force a polit ical, and social, and unnatural. equality be tween the African and the Causasian, be tween an alien, inferior and exotic race front the tropics, with the highest' type ot the hu man race in the home of the latter in the temperate lone. • Second, I impeach it its a crime against civilization, because it would by force wrench the government out of the hands of the civ ilized white race in ten States of this Union to place it in the hands of the half civilizetl African. . Third, I impeach it as a crime against the COnstitution, because it tramples down the rights of.the States to fix for themselves the qualifications of their own voters, a right without which a State ceases to be republi can at all. • • . . Fourth. I impeach it as a crime against the Constitution and a,g-ainst national faith, be cause it annuls the pardons Constitutionally granted to hundreds of thousands of the most intelligent white men of the South and in open palpable violation of the Constitution disfranchises them. Fifth, I impeach it as a crime against the existence of ten States of the Union and the liberties of eight millions of people, because in express terms it annuls all civil govern ment by which alone those liberties may be secured, and places them under an absolute Military despotism.' - Sixth, I impeach it as a crime against hu manity, tending to produce a war of races, to the utter destruction of one or both, a re sult which cannot be prevented without a large standing army which neither our re sources will bear, or our liberties long sur vive. 'Seventh, I impeach it as an utter abandOn• melt of the purpose of which we fought and mastered rebellion. It tends to make false all the promises and pledges made by the friends of the Government in its fearful strug gle to put down the rebellion, and' it tends to verify all the prophesies and forebodings of its-enemies. The great struggle in New Hampshire has been upon the advanced' lines. The friends of the Constitution and of that liberty it was designed to secure, while they bravely held their own and made large gains, have not won a complete victory. Perhaps a complete triumph in New Hampshire now, would have allowed the people of other States to become from the great victory already won less prudent, and to underrate the tremendous struggle - necessary to meet and overcome the Radicalism which, in the name of a gredt and successful General, now threatens to destroy the Constitution, the most sacred rights of the States under it and the liberties of the people by a revolution in favor of centraliza tion and imperialism more insidious but not less dangerous titan secession itself. Yesterday, although they were centered Upon the friends of Constitutional liberty in New Hampshire, they stood nobly ; when blows fell first and thickest. they advanced, they gained, but not all that, was hoped. To-day all eves are turned upoirConnecticut ; with equal exertion your majority of last year will be more than treble, and then if our Convention in New York on the 4th of July next will select our standard It.arers, and placing them upon the issue of the present and not of , the past, and whoever they may be, civilians or military men, statesmen or generals, from the East or from the West, if they do not place us upon the defensive, but give the word to advance upon the whole line from Maine to California, we must be . victorious in the great struggle in November, unless truth and justice and the love of true liberty have ceased to rule the hearts and consciences of the American people Au Early Precedent. Precedents establishing the right of the President to select his own Cabinet officers are numerous in our histon•. Here is nn in stance which occurred during the Adminis tration of the elder Adams : On the 10th of May, 1800, President Adonis addressed to Colonel Pickering, then Secretary of State, a note as Billow s : "`T , T. ..Nderipg, crttary 1 - m0(1(14/Ala : " `Sir : As I perceive a necessity of intro ducing a change in the administration of the Office of State, I think it proper to make this communication of it to the present Secre tary of State, that he may have an opportu nity - of resigning, if he .chooses. I should wish the day on which his resignation is to take place to be named by himselt: I wish for an answer to this letter, on or before Mon day morning, because the nomination of a successor must be sent to the Senate as soon as they sit. "'With esteem, I am,sir,your obedient and humble servant, RHIN ADAMS.' "Colonel Pickering replied in an extraor dinary strain, declining td resign whereup on Mr. Adams sent him this laconic notice, which bears date May 12, 1800: "'MAY 12, 1800.

An incident which might, by a 'reporter disposed to be sensational, be wrought into a column or'so, occurred recently in a very respectable' locality in this city. A gentle man, returning from business rather earlier than his wont, was surprised to find his house in darkness. Entering, he was cor dially greeted by his wife, who gave for an excuse for being in the dark that , he Was watching the streets by moonlight. The ex planation was satisfactory. and the gentle man seated himself upon the sofa beside his wife. His foot came in contact with some thing under the soils which attracted his at tention. He caught lipid of what appeared to bg a man's boot, and hauled from under t.the sofa one of his bosom friends and near neighbors. In vain both the man and his 'wife 'protested that the scheme was de vised only to scare him ; he belabored ltim most soundly with a little rattan, and ended by kicking him down the stairs into the street, minus coat and hat. What trans pired further deponent saith not. Moral—Don't try_ to scare your neighbors by getting under their sofas while their wives are around. BIRTH AND DEVIII Ram cut T 6E Wout,D. —statisticians have calculated - that if the population of the world amounts to between 1,200,000,000 and 1,300,000,000 persons, the number of deaths in a year would be about 32,000,000. Assuming the correctness of this calculation, says the Loudon Lancet, the number of deaths each day would_ be nearly 88,000-3,600 per hour; sixty per minute, and thus every second would carry into eter nity one human life in one part of the earth or another. But reproduction asserts its superior power ; for, on calculating the proba ble annual births of the globe, the result. shows that whereas sixty persons die every minute, seventy children are born, and thus the increase of the population is kept up. Not long ago a man neatly dressed, hand some, and of courtly bearing; might have' been seen pacing Broadway, between Canal street and Union Square, at almost any hour between sunset and midnight. Care had fur rowed his lofty brow ; his hair, once black as the ratios's wing, was prematurely sil vered; his tout enacuibla bespoke a man with a broken heart, for whoni life had no joys, and for whorls the gravd only had test. Ile was from sunny France. There he loved a young and beautiful Ns ife, the mother of his ,two children; . and while they lived secluded on his estate in Lozere, they . enjoyed "do mestic bliss, the only happiness that sur vived the 11111." In an evil hour he took his wife to Paris to enjoy for a time the pleas ures of that gay and luxtuimis capital. He '_was wealthy and had the entree to the circles of fashion. His wife, unused to the world, fell a victim of the fli:kinating, and seductive influence of one of thoseelegant scoundrels— called counts—so plentiful in Paris. ,She eloped with him and as her husband after; wards ascertained, sailed, for NCNV York. In cited by jeillousy rind exasperated at the out- ' Mge on his honor, the wronged man swore vengeance.and sailed to this city in search of it. Night after night he walked Broadway or haunted the theatres, armed ready to take his rival's life. Fin' nearly three long months with his brain on fire, his heart filled witft envy, did.this man seek the life of the betray er of his happiness. On the 24th of May last, he stood, earlier than usual, gazing vacantly in the window of a Broadway store. Sud denly the sound of a voice that once was music in his ear sent a. 'milk to his heart. Turning, he recognized his wife among a crowd of sewing women going bonne from their daily toil. lie mechanically followed her unobserved to a solitary apartment in a ini-erable house in a wretched .locality. I laving knocked at the door, it was opened and lie .entered. What took place inside none but themselves know or should know. It is enough for us to tell that his old love, mingled with commiseration, returned when . he found tier penitent 'and heart-sore. - The-, rest is'soon told. The quasi count deserted her, and the la,t. time -she saw him was in, the morgue, where he was taken, "found 'drowned." Death forestalled the husband's vengeanee.—.Y. Y. Ga.:ctte. NO. 44 Among the oracles of the Radical party, no one has grown into wider rcpute,within the' lust year or two, or been more generally ad mired by the "rank - and than the writer who signs himself "Petroleum V. Washy." His real name is D. R. Locke, awl he is one of the editors of the• Toledo Blade. The fol lowing anecdote of this notorious individual, • related by the Printers' • Circular, .a paper which likes no part in polities, will serve to show in what estimation he was held by one who knew how to judge-metes character as well as any man in the country : "When 'Washy' was editor of the Bucyrus (Ohio) Journal, there appeared every week in the 'local column' a sensational story of' some sort ; a miraculous re-union of husband and wife, or (Miter and son, after a lapse of many years—sudden reappearances of men who had long-been mourned for dead, and which were copied by all the papers of the State as veritable. The obituary of 'Jelin E. Cake, burned to death in an oven,' which was sweitensively circulated, first originated here. Now fin- my story. In 1801 'Nasby' went to Camp Taylor with the first company of volunteers (Capt. Butterfield's, of the Bth Ohio,) -which left B— under the call of 75,000 men. While standing on the plat form at Crestline, waiting for the Cleveland train, a friend came sauntering along in com pany with 'Artemis Ward,' (Charles F. Browne-, the local editor of the Cleveland Plaindealer.) An introduction followed, and when they clasped hands for a fr,iendly shake 'Artemus said: 'I am mostlappy to meet the most miceessfotEllitr in the State of Ohio.' The bystanders, who were mostly _Bucyrus boys; appreciated the joke hugely, and com mencing with a broad grin, they finally raised snicker, and concludedAvith a hearty laugh, in which 'Washy' cordially, joined and shook • his sides." .

"Why is it," asked a lady, "that so many men are anxious to get rid of their wives ?" "Because," was the reply, "so, few women exert themselves after marriage to ndtke their presence indispensable to the happiness of. their husbands?" WhCn husband and wife have become thoroughly accustomed to each other—when all the little battery bf charms which both played off so skillfully before the wedding day has been exhausted, too many seem to think that nothing remains but the clanking of the legal chains that bind them to each other. The wife seeks to AleYelop in her affections ) no now attractions for her husband ; and the latter, perceiving the tap so.., begins to lima! over an uneongeniality, which does not exist, into unsurpassable ob stacles in the way of his earthly felicity. This is the true secret. The woman who charmed before marriage can charm after wards, if she will, though not, of course, by the same means. There are a thousand ways, if she will study them out, in which she can make home so attractive that her husband will unconsciously dislike to' absent himself from it, and she can readily make herself the Particular deity of the domestic paradise. This done, she may quietly laugh at all at tempts to alienate her husband's inclinations ; and with these inclinations will always go, in such-eases, his active judgment.
