Slavery upon Kansas ; but -the people
of Maitie. elected Willi Governor• by
30,000 majority. He resigned the col

to which our attention has been called,
is as follows :

TRIAL OP ANDREW .;JOHNSON
The Seinite assembled at the hour of
noon on Friday, and the trial proceed
ed. The entire examination of witness
es during Friday related to the reports
made of the Presidents speeches on his
famous swing " around the circle," and
at Washington. The testimony runs
through manyeolumns. and is not par
tieularly interesting. It was offered to
show that the often disgusting and gen
erally disgraceful speeches of the presi
dent since the 22d of February, 1866,
were correctly reported. This fact was
established beyond idispute..
The testimony for Impeachment was
-more important during the sesSihnof
Saturday. ~T he testimony of Robert S.
Chew, 'Chief Clerk of the State'Depart
ment, was important as cumulative ev
idence of the fact, previously establish
ed, eirebange being made in the farms
of commissions issued to officers, alter
the passage of the Tenure-of-Office laW.
Formerly the Commissions ran " dur
ing the pleasure of the President for the
time being;" hut after the passage of the
Tenure-of-Office law, th t ey were ehangt.td
to read, "subject to the cmrditions
}prescribed by law." Mr. Chew testified
that the old form of Commissions. had
not been used since the passage of the
law referred to ; that ti President had
signed Commissio i 1 the new form.
The object of As testimony was to
show that the PreArkent had recognized
the.binding force of the law in all his
official acts up to the removal of Secre
tary Stanton-in February last. The de
fence attempted to prove that the re
moval of Stanton during •the session of
the Senate was not unprecedented.—
The precedent cited was that of the re
moval ofpiekering by the Elder Adams
in 1800. The prosecution produced the
journal of the Senate for that year,
showing that President 'Adams sent
in the nomination of Piekerings suc
cessor on the, day of his removal of the
former.
Mr. Crecey, appointment Clerk in
the Treasury Department was recalled
and shown a letter. He testified that
the handwriting of the letter was An
drew Johnson's. It, was a letter to Sec
retary MeCtillcip it, and reads :
, SIR: In cooppliaftele with the rcquireinents of
the act of Congress of , -MaTelt 21, 1557, entitled
"An net to regulate the tenure of certain civil
offices," you are hereby notified that on the 28th
inst., the lion. Edwin M. Stanton was st?l , pended
front his Mle!) as Seeretary (4" War, and Gen.
Ulysses S. Grant authorized Undo empowered to
act as Secretary of War wi interim. I :on, sir very
respect fully yours, ANI\IMW JOHNSON.
The letter is dated "August 14, 18G7.
The point made is in comparing it with
the President'slanswer to the House ar=
titles of Impeachment, in which he
says that he "suspended Mr. Stanton
under the Constitution, indefinitely,
and a his pleasure." The reader will
see 11 at in his letter to Secretary Mc-
Cullo tit the President says that he no-.
titres the Senate of the suspension of
Mr. Stanton, in compliance with the, re
quirements of the Sth section of the Ten
ure-of-o,km law. This conflict of state
menlt) damages the ease of the President
seriously. Consideritble documentary
"evidence wr.submitted by the House
Managers 'to show that. the President
had recognized the validity of the law
up to the,time of the attempted remov
al of Stanton in February, and here the
prosecution rested the case:. The Presi
dent's counsel asked for three days to
arrange their testimony,. which was
given, and the Court of Impeachment
adjourned to Thursday April 9.

that the authorship of Fla Pritviso

We can s t tate that its renewal in thedaya

cof whom Judge Wilmot was prom

idea of restricting the "Spread' of Sla

experienced a revival itt 1819-14), and
owed its second revival to the lAldness
of David Wilmot in 1846. It catrieci in

The Ku-KlaX Klan is a sect:et organ
ization in the rebel States, having for
its object, judging from its work; the
intimidation of the loyal portion of
•
SoutherW citizens, and the murder of
all who df l »iot obey.its orders. It is
said that the name is significant of the
noise ii tmle. by the cocking of a rifle.
This organization is probably. the same
as the Knights .of the Golden Circle,
which order in the interest of treason
came to gilief during the war. The Ku-
Klax Klan is composed of the most vir
ulent and -abandoned rebels. Its real
object is apparently the driving out of
the•Southeyn States hit Who retain re 7
spect for the old flag. The government
should outlaw its members at once,
and set abut exterminating the order
Wherever it exists. And there should.
be no delaY. The time to destroy this
band of murderers is now ; and the way
to do it islby drumhead court-martial,
shoy_t-shrifF, and hemp. Let all action
p6taining to the law's delay be avoid
ed. If thee South will not be at peace,
inaugurate the sort of peace that reign

When •Gen. Cameron was nominateil
for United States Senator, was it in ort
pesition to a atraitforward dealing Mt;
rfority, or was it in spite,of the tricks
which pass for smartness with a certain
school of politiciansin thislititte? Gen.
Cameron was among the first to declare
for Congress as against the President,
but we wet of a man who was afterthe
Russian Mission, and had no tongue:
Were the people right, or wrong, in
choosing a pronounced man 'to repre
sent the State in the Senate of the .
United State?
One of the most doubtful compliments
yet paid to the . Southern people is that
implied in , the • alleged wager of one
Bates, of Wisconsin, that he could car
ry' the United States flag through the
Sonthein States. Let us us take_the
"Democracy " at their offer and see
how it looks: •
. The " Democracy " claim that the
South is ready to resume its idlegiance
and live peaceably under the \ old flag.
They bet that Bates can carry the
United States flag thrOugh the South
ern States.
To bet is to admit a risk ; otherwise i
is no bet.
,Can there be any risk in marching
with the national flag among a p`eople
fit to be again represented in the na-,
tional councils? , ,i
We think not. However, it' is well
enough to prick this Bates-bladder of
_mephitic gas. Bates is betting against
" Democratic " molicy, if at all, and is'
filling his pockets from the sale of his
Photograph's to the- ra , ones in the
South. "Sergeant Bat ," as he is
called, belonged to an a tillery reg':
ment which fought, bled and playei
poke in the forts •around Washington
during the war. He never smelt pow
der.
The retirement of Judge Black as one
of the original counsel employed by the
President,, is accounted for. Judge
Black has an interest, direct or ;',,reet,
in a new Guano Thland knowic4 Alta
Vela. A citizen of the United States
sets up a claim to the island which is
resisted by the localuthorities nearest.
Judge Black wanted Mr. &Johnson to
send a war vessel to take and hold the
island. Mr. Johnson, not BO fond of dO7
ing foolish things of that sort as he has
'been, refused. So Judge Black ,refuses
to defend Mr. Johnson. The Judge
demands a too large retainer.
