The Radical National Convention Met in Chicago on Wednesday, and orgtufired by the election of ('en. Carl Schurz as tempora ry Chairnian. Re-Governor Hawley, of Con necticut, was chosen permanent President, with the usual batch of Vice Presidents sod Secretaries. Delegates are in attendance from all the States and Territories, number ing over five hundred in all. Gen. Grant will be nominated by acclamation, and the Vice Presidency will probably be given to New England. The prominent candidates are Wade, Wilson, Hamlin, Fenton and Col far. IN the House on Friday, Judge Woodward offered a resolution authorizing the appoint ment of a special committee to inquire into the conduct of certain Radical members of the Missouri delegation, who had written a letter to Senator Henderson of that State, with a view of influencing his vote on the impeachment question. Judge Werodwird, in the resolution, very properly character ized such conduct as :'an' infringement of the rights and privileges of the Senate, an obstacle to and subversive of, the cause of justice, and calculated to bring dishonor up on the House." • The Speaker, however, ruled that the resolution was not a question of privilege. Judge Woodward proposed to amend it so as to make it such a question, but Garfield, of Ohio, objected to its• mep tion, and it was consigned to the fate of so many more good measures. THE LAW TO DEFRAUD POOR MEE OUT OV THEM VOTES. We are pleased to learn from the Lancas. ter Tutelligencer, that "iiteps are being taken to test, before the Supreme Court, the con stitutionality of the Registry act, passed by the last Legislature. bir, Chalfant, of the House of Representatives, from Columbia county, declares that the journal of the House shows that the act as passed, con tained but three Sections, whiles,' printed in the Legislative Record and in the Pamphlet Laws, it contains twenty-one Sections.. He charged in the House that it had been 'tam pered with after it was passed, and asked that a committee of investigation be ordered, which was refitted by the Radical members. The statement la a startling one, and we are glad that it is going to be Investigated. The constitutionality of the law will be tested at the same time. Its sole object is to injure the Democratic party, by throwing obstacles in the way of the exercise of the right of suffrage by the poor men, the masit - of whom are Democrats, and is In perfect consistency with the Radical policy of restricting In every way the Influence of white men in the con trol of our government, and extending that of black men." - THE ILIKEVICVLATE FORNEY. No more palpable trick has been exposed in a long period, than the recent widely an nounced resignation of John W. Forney es Clerk of the U. S. Senate. It has provoked ridicule wherever Forney is known. .The ostensible purpose of the resignation was to enable him to be free to criticise the Sena tors as he might Gee fit, but nobody doubts that the programme was fixed up before hand, and that he never expected the resig nation to be accepted. In the Senate, Sum ner moved to lay the resignation On the table, the effect of which would be to con tinue Forney as Secretary by failing to elect a successor. To this Cameron, who hates the Dead Duck, objected and moved the resignation be accepted. But Sumner's mo tion prevailed. Hendricks then moved the resignation be accepted, and a Secretary pro ten. appointed until a regular election could be had. Sumner objected to the considera tion of this motion, which would have made Forney's resignation a resignation in earnest. and It went over, so that no successor, either permanent or ad interim, having been ap pointed, Forney is still the Secretary with a fat salary. THE NATION DISGRACED. - In the whole history of American politics, there has never been anYthiag so disgraceful as the attempt of the impeachers to overawe and intimidate the sworn members of the "High Court of Impeachment" into perjuring themselves by voting for the deposition of President Johnson. The only thing approxi mating to it in history, that we remember, was the action of the Jacobin club, in Paris, when it was in the habit of repairing to the French Convention, compelling It by men aces and open violence to carry out its blood thirsty designs. Every day we see develop ments showing the remarkable similarity be tween the more reckless and violent of the Radicals, and the miscreants who governed France during the "reign of-terror." What would be thought if such °Vide pressure, arid violent menaces, as we now see employed toward Senators to wring trom them a verdict which they do not !v -itae to be just were brought to bear upon jurors in private cases, either civil or crimi nal in the highest degree, and the perpetra tors would suffer condign punishment. Yet there is no case where such displays could he mom rascally, or where they would have Such a fatal etil..ct upon the peace of the coun try, as this one in which they ire employed. We shall soon see whether a miserable mob Is to rule in thir-Government, or whether it will be conducted in accordance with the oaths and conscientious convictions of the constitutional representatives of the peo ple. • TUE impeachers think that they nutke a point against the independent Senators who are against-Johnson's conviction, by a charge ofinconsistency. The charge is that they voted with the majority of the Senate on the 21st of February for a resolution charging the Presi dent with violating the tenure-of-office law by the removal of Stanton.. Tide action of the Senate amounts to nothing. It was taken before .icapeachment, before the case had been argued, before they heard the evi dence involved in it. Therefore, Sena tors, who, in a hasty manner e yes, we could use ranch stronger language in relation to it, for it was not only hasty, but grossly impro per sad outrageous,—committed themselves before-hand, are not to be harshly judged, because they consider their vote after the case has been properly presented to them. Besides It does not follow that Senators who believe that the President did violate the law, should aeceasarly declare, by their vote, that such violation amounted, in the view of the Constitution, to a "high crime, and misde manor 1" Ti. folickwing is a resolution introduced at as impeachment meeting in Lancaster city, the home of Thad.

Howard Grimes antreoitkling, who had been very M t leaving their sick beds air the purpose of crating their votes. It had been- previously decided is eancus that the only one of the articles on which there was a chance of conviction writ/the eleventh, and it was accordingly decided that the test should be made upon that one, leer ing the others to be disposed of as circum stances might suggest. This article was drawn up by Thad. Stevens, after asserting that any lawyer could drive a four-horse team through -either of the others, end Isla substance as follows: . • • Mama ti. That he declared in a pub lie speech in Washington, August 18, 1866, that the Thirty-Ninth Congress las not a constitutional Congress of the .I;inited States, but a Congress of part of the States ; thus de nying the validity of their legislation, except so far as he chose to approve it; and, in pus-, nuance of tide declaration, attempted to Ere vent the execution of the Tenure-of-Office act, by unlawfully contriving means of pre venting Edwin M. Stanton from resuming the office of Secretary of War, when the Sen ate had refused to concur in ids suspension; and also attempted to prevent the execution of thadtppropriation act of MarchlB67, (as in article 9); and also the act of M arch 2, 1867, " for the more efficient government of the rebel States;" thus committing a high misdemeanor in office. After the necessary preliniittarles, the vote was taken with due solemAity, and was as follows. The names of the Democratic Sen ators are printed, in italic type: Guilty: Messm Anthony of R. 1., Cameron of Pa., Cattell of N. J., Chandler of Mich., Cole of Cul., Conkling of N.

Van Winkle of WratAra., Vithys of ?ad.-19. There being fifty-four votes cast, and two thirds necessary to convict, the Chief Justice announced that the President hid been ac quitted on the eleventh article. The tidings were immediately dispatched over the.coun try by telegraph, and within half an hour af ter the verdict had been rendered, .every im portant place in the Union had been apprised that honesty and justice bad triumphed over party madness and intrigue. The bupeachers seem to have been dread fully deceived in their calculations of the re sult, Senator Ross, of Kansas, who voted for acquittal, had never been doubted by them, and their labors were Mainly expended upon such men as Prelinghnysen, Sprague, Willey and Anthony, who were suspected of being alightly troubled with twitchings of conscience. When his vote was recorded against conviction, it fell upon them like an avalanche, stud at one blow demolished all their nice laid schemes of personal ambition and party interest. The news of acquittal is received with satisfaction by all except the extreme Radicals, and public demonstrations of joy have occurred in many places. After the vote had been taken, knowing that the same result would attend all the other arti cles, the„ subject was postponed against the urgent appeals of the conservative Senators, and the Senate adjourned until the 28th inst., when the Chicago convention will have closed its labors. This \ mLserable cowardice —cowardice the more marked inasmuch as the impeachers caucus forced the vote on Saturday—was doubtless at the instance of the friends of Ben. Wade, who feared that if the question was settled that he could not at tain the Presidential ()Bice by usurpation that he would not receive the nomination for Vice-president. Hence they preferred to leave the impression upon the delegates, who wanted . o/Bees or patronage, that if they vo ted for Mr. Wade he shortly might reward them with the patronage they desired. This postponement, inasmuch as it is a clear ac knowledgement of present defeat—and as it is a wanton procrastination of* great public question, leaving the nation in the utmost anxiety as to the future—will have a wore disastrous effect upon the, fortunes of the Radical party than it' they had met the IssiLe boldly, and bad stood up to it like men. A tremendous pressure will be brought "to bear to secure conviction yet on the other ar ticles, but we are convinced that it will not meet with success. It is untieritood that all the Senators who voted against the eleventh article are equally firm in their conviethm that he is not guilty upon sillier of the others, and several Senators are so positively:com mitted against them that it cannot be believ ed they will go back upon their expressed opinions. We doubt if any of the articles receive as ' large a support as the eleventh, and one or two will nut receive half a dozen votes. Our news on this point is confirmed by the N. Y. Tribune, which, in au editorial on Monday, remarkable- for its moderation in comparison with its frothy ebullitions pre ceding the vote, speaks as follows: " The MALI was deliberately, and we doubt nutjudiciously, selected as the article that would command must votes. This tailing, all tail. There may be those who deem it wise and well to admit Senators front the re constructed States and force- a verdict of guilty by their votes; but we cannot concur. It might have been well to defer the Im peachment until those States should be rep. resented lu the SenuteLbut, having It:Mated it, we think it would not du to admit new Senators to vote upon it utter the testimony was taken and the argument closed." IN the struggle oniaturtlay, which killed the eleventh article and probably decided the fate of Impeachment, Mr. Wade com mitted the unpardonable shame of voting for himself. Every instinct which could animate a gentleman was violated in his rote ; and was violated iu vain. Parliamentary and Judicial etiquette he did not scruple to inr: , molate, and the immolation accomplished nothing. We do not expect decency in men of Mr. Wade's stamp, neither can we often hOpe to see the absence of it so signally pun ished. There was dignity in the spectacle of Robespierre under his own gUintatttie ; and of anua swinging on, gatlowa of his own ruanuilicturs ; but. no sedsemlng feature saves from*ridicule and contempt the figure which is now presented to the eyes of Gods and men by Ben. Wade. IT is regarded as an offense, meriting in vestigation by a committee of Outgrew% in the President attempting to influence Sena tors ; but no offense in members of Congress, Governors of States or town meetings threatening Senators, and demanding ofthein that they shall vote, not se their cotuieleacts dictate, but as outsiders desire.

WE are glad to receive the assurance of the Columbus (Ga.) Enquirer that "a majori ty of the electoral votes of the ten States, now undergoing reconstruction, can be given against General Grant, and in favor of the nominee of the New York Convention." If this assurance is sustained, and the white people of the South we know can do it, the Democratic success this fall is no longer pro. lematical, but is an absolute certainty.

Tun Senators from the Staley of California, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, and Oregon voted for conviction, while the vote of Con necticut was divided. The people In these States have overwhelmingly declared against Radicalises, and If these people had been pro perly represented in the Court of Impeach ment, the vote for acquittal would have been 30 instead of 19, and the vote for conviction would have been but 24 instead of 35. The Radical party, like its leading organ in this city, lives by "misrepresentation." IT is &tumidy indicative of the esteem in which the Republicans hold their leading men, that many 'of them distinctly charge bribery upon every Republican Senator who lies pronounced against the conviction of the President. It seems to be thought Incredible that a Republican should act under any other than corrupt motives ; and as the party Mo tive is absent in the case of these Senators, it —in Republican contemplation—logically follows that they have made up their minds upon some material indircement. Tun colored milliner, Mrs. Keckley, says in her new volume : "Mrs. Patterson and Mrs. Stover are kind-hearted, - plain, unassum ing women, making no pretensions to ele gance. One day when I called at the Yilite House, in relation to some work I was doing fur them, I found Mrs. Pattrson busily at work with a 'sewing machine. The sight was a novel one to me for the IVbite House, for as long as I remained with Mrs. - Lincoln, I do not recollect ever having seen her with a needle in her hand." HERE is another specimen of the rarjous methods of coercion employed to fix the votes of Republican Senators. Senator Mor ton, 'Atwell a Methodist, telegraphed to Riah op Simpson there words; "I fear Brother Willey is lost." To which Bishop Simpson replied: "Brother Willey professes to he a Christian. Brother Willey has a soul to be saved. He cannot barter away his soul and imperil the country. Pray with Brother Wiley," Whereupon Brother Harlan pray ed with Brother Willey, and Brother Willey war saved. THE New Ynrk Tribune says: "The man who has done more than all others, unless in a pecuniary way, to secure this result, (ac quittal of the President) is Chief-Justice Chase. He decided the vote of Mr. Van Winkle. He did his utmost—happily in vain —to carry off Messrs. Anthony and Sprague. We doubt that Hr. Henderson would have voted as he did but for theChief-Justice's ex ertions, - Those exertions saved Andrew Johnson." Wnax Ulysses S. Grant was a suull boy bis father bought him a little hatchet.
