THE' FREEMAN. FBJzSSBULG, May 21, 18G8. Democratic State Ticket. FOR AUDITOR SHNEHAL HON. CtlAKLES E.

BOYLE, Of Fayette County. TkM ttTRVKYOR QK5KRAL GEN. WELLINGTON II. ENT, Of Columbia County. The Tribune on "Grammar." We have had a few tilts with our polished nnd grammatical friend of the Johnstown Tribune during the last month.

In hi? issue of May 8th the editor beats a retreat, leaving us in possession of the field however, under a very heavy assumption of dignity. After denying that John Hickman, a Uadical, nominated and elected by the Republicans of Chester as a Republican, i a Republican "in good standing," our friend gets off the following "Our good nature and pleasiug way of paying tiling, a. hied to cur superior knowledge of grammar and rhetoric, stemi to Lave worried our friend of the Freeman." Ilare'a richness for you I In the very sentenca in which the TrUunt editor boasts of his "superior knowledge of grammar" he violates not only purity of expression, but the plainest rule of English Grammar. And yet, the creature would lecture us on Grammar 1 Solomon says, 'Seeat tho a man wise in his own conceit There is more hope of a fool than of him." But enough I We have shown that tho Radical party is a proscriptive party, and has proscribed citizens "on account of race, and religion, and color" and tho Tribune does not attempt to gainsay it. The Ymte on Impeachment.

It appears from tho proceedings in the Senate on Saturday last that the only vote taken was on tire eleventh article of impeachment. This is known as the Stevens article, having been prepared by that nrch demagogue himself. The vote was taken on that article first, because it was supposed by tho enemies of the President that more votes could be secured for it than for any one of the other ten articles, and Wecauae they believed that conviction on VmI article waa certain. The vote on tho eleventh article stood as follows Guilty, 35 Not Guilty, 19. Like Mer-catios' wound, this, ahhouh net as deep as a well nor a wide as a barn door, is enough.

After having taken this vot3 the Senate, aa a Court of Impeachment, adjourned until next Tuesday, when a vote will be taken on the remaining articles. It is not pretended, however, by the Radicals themselves that tho President will be convicted on either of them, their main chance for conviction having been placed on the eleventh article. This Laving failed, the remaining articles will share the same fate. The following aro the names of the seven K'puUicsm8 who voted with the Democrats for acquittal: Fessenden of Maine, Fowler of Terxessee, Grimes of Iowa, Henderson of Missouri, Ross of Kan sap, Trumbull of and Van Winkle of West Virginia. Tlio I'rcsltleiil Acquitted.

When the eleven articles of impeachment were adopted by tho Radicals in Congress the press of that prty set up ik concerted and systematic howl for the President's conviction. It was a matter of small concern to them that each Sen-Ator bad taken a solemn, oath to decide the case according to the evidence, and to do impturial justice. In the judgment of thes intensely loyal editors tho Senate was organized only to convict, and the of the President with rail road speed, to use an expression of Benjamin F. Butler, was dcmund.Ml at their hands. It was not a question of guilt or innocence under tho Constitution and tho laws, but merely a formal proceeding to register the decree of a set of Radical demagogues in the House of Representatives who ride on the wkirlwiud and direct the storm.

The Radical argument is and has been that Andrew Johnson has been an obstruction in the path of Radical legislation and progress, and that the interests of the party required his removal. This allegation will not bear the test of scrutiny. Ever since Mr. Johnson succeeded to the Presidential ofUce he has been confronted by a Radical majority tf two-thirds, both in Senate and House of Representatives. That majority, under the despotic leadership of Stevens and his associates', has pass-id over the President's veto all their favorite and charished schemes to despoil rhe intellijwnt white men of the South of -11 political power ond oonflr it oa ignorant and uncultivated negroes.

The aim tho present and preceding Congress has een to usurp all the other powers of the jvernmcnt und to strip the President of ill his Constitutional authority. In this -hey have succeeded to such an extent as to degrade ihe-vffice of President to one of intra form and not of substance. To remove Mr. Johnson, thus shorn of nearly all his power, wan the object of the kii-pcachruent trial. F.

Wade was Kiir-eraor, every thing was to be nd the political milleniurii was speedily to be ushered in. But iu the language of the Scotch poet "The plans of mice and men Gang aft aglee." The Senate, after mature deliberation, and having a proper regard for their oaths and the testimony, have rendered judgment against the impeachers, and have declared by their verdict that Andrew Johnson is not gttilty of the high crimes and misdemeanors with which he 9tood charged. This result, righteous in itself, is due to the firmness and integrity of seven Republican Senators who could not be intimidated from a conscientious discharge of their duty by Radical threats and denunciations. To assert that such men as Fbssknden, of Maine, Tkujidull, of Illinois, and Henderson, of Missouri, were iufluencd by any other than pure and patriotic motives in voting for the acquittal of the President is a foul and malicious libel on their fair names and unsullied reputations. And yet the charge of bribery and corruption is openly made against those Senators and their Republican associates by the Radical press.

Duty, conscientiously and fearlessly performed, is a perfect shield of protection against all these poisoned arrows of baffled and defeated malignity. Loyal League societies may fume and fret and denounce the Grand Army of the Republic may resolve and re-resolve that these men were corrupt, and that each one bad his price, but the intelligent masses of the people will not so regard them. When the excitement and political bitterness which have grown out of impeachment trial shall have passed away, and when the base and unworthy motives of the desperate and unscrupulous men who instigated it can bo viewed without prejudice and through the clear, calm light of reason and justice, their motives will be vindicated and their names honored and respected, while the memory of their de-famcrs will sink into merited oblivion and contempt. A Xew Way to Convict. When it became manifest in the Senate, on last Monday week, that at least four Republican Senators intended to vote for the acquittal of the President the Radicals resorted to their usual ba3e expedients to avert the impending blow.

Among the number was Mr. Henderson, of Missouri, upon whom the Radical members of Congress from that State called and modestly asked him to resign in order that the Governor of the State might appoint as h'i3 successor some one who would hasten to Washington and vote for conviction. That Buch a base and scandalous proposition conld be made at all only furnishes additional evidence of the utter rottenness of the Radical party. If Mr. Henderson had yielded to this infamous demand his successor would have voted to convict the President, ab though he had not heard one word of the evidence.

But Mr. Henderson, like ac honest man, indignantly spurned the pro-position. John W. Forney, however, whose bareness is always equal to any political emergency, hit upon a more novel and yet more disgraceful expedient to consummate the Radical plot against the President. There are now at Washington two men who claim to have been elected United States Senators from the reconstructed State of Arkansas.

They were doubtless understrappers of the Fieedmen's Bureau in that State, one of them hailing from Pennsylvania and the other from New York. Forney proposed and even urged through the columns of The Press that the Senate should at once admit these two carpet-bagger3 to their seats in that body, and thus render tho conviction of the President a fixed fact. Could any man who was not born a scoundrel conceive a proposition more supremely infamous than that? Nothing but itself can be its parallel, and its mere mention can only excite a feeling of shame and indignation. It was worthy of the "Dead Duck" and of the author of the Jamieson letter. A man is on trial before a Court and jury for a high criminal offence.

It is ascertained that tn are for conviction aud two are for acquittal. two are withdrawn from the jury and their places supplied by tw substitutes tvho are known to bo hostile to the prisoner, and a verdict of guilty is rendered. Would not such a proceeding shock the moral sense of any civilized and law-abiding community And yet this is precisely what Forney wanted the Senate to do, and if it had been done we suppose the Radicals would have defended tho outrage upon the ground of partg necessity. With the failure of impeachment a great many shrewd political combinations have suddenly vanished into thin air. Of course President Wade had all his Cabinet officers selected several foreign missions now vacant were to be filled by his special friends and admirers bright visions of fat collectorships and profitable post offices flitted before the heated imaginations of scores of hungry liadicals Sheridan was to be reinstated at New Orleans John Pope, the hero of defeats, was again to make his headquarters at Atlanta, and Sickcls was again to be enthroned at Charleston.

Such was the bright and happy future of Radicalism; but the stern and inflexible decree of the Senate has dissipated all these pleasing anticipations and turned the golden fruit of Radicalism, like Dead Sea apples, to ashes upon the lips. Andrew Johnson is still President of the united States, and may yet write several veto messages. An expensively bound book of flofl pages, and costing $37 a volume, has just been issued at Wasnington. The total edition has cost the Government one hundred thousand dollars. It contains nothing but tho letters of condolence on the death of Abraham Lincoln.

Only a very, very great nation can afford to throw money --y in that manner. RADICAL KULG. That our readers may understand how the Rump runs the machine of government in the Southern States, we clip the following from the Pittsburgh Commercial, a leading Radical paper General Grant's communication to the Senate to-day encloses reports from the District Commanders. General report gives the whole number of voters registered in Virginia as 225,933, of whom 120,111 are whites and 105,832 colored of these 4,417 whites and 12,887 blacks failed to vote on the question of calling a couvention. Judging from the tax list and other data, the number of whites who faihd to register is 16,343.

There is no report of the number disfranchised in Virginia under the reconstruction laws. General Canby leports 106,721 white and 72,932 colored voters in North Carolina, nearly al! of whom voted; It is estimated that 19,477 whites aud 3,289 blacks failed to register, and of these 1 1,680 whites are dW-f ranch ised. In South Carolina there are 4G.R8J white and 80,550 black voters registered 10,992 whites and 4,167 blacks failed to register. About seventy-five per cent, of the whites are disfranchised. In Georgia 96.333 white and 95,168 colored voters are registered, of whom 60,333 white and 24,758 colored failed to vote iO.OOO whites are disfranchised, and.500 refused to register.

In Alabama there are 61,295 white and 104,518 black voters, of whom 37,158 white and 32,947 colored failed to vote. There are no data to show the number disfranchised. In Florida few are disfranchised and nearly al! are registered and have voted. Number of whites, 11,914 blacks, 16,079. General Gillem says no data have been kept from which to ascertain the number of voters of different colors in Mississippi.

In Arkansas 25,697 failed to vote. General Iluuck reports that 45.218 whites and 84,486 blacks were registered in Louisiana of this number 50,480 failed to vote, but what proportion the General is UDable to saj nor can he report how many are disfranchised. In Texas 55,633 whites and 49.497 colored voters arc registered, of whom 1,757 whites and 36,922 blacks voted. The Dumber disfranchised cannot be ascertained. The Registry Law.

Legal steps are about being taken to test the constitutionality of the Registry act, passed by the last Legislature. Mr, Chalfant, of the House of Representatives, from Columbia county, declares that the journal of the Houso shows that the act as passed, contained but three Sections, while as printed in the Legislative Record and in the Pamphlet Laws, it contains twenty-one Sections. He chargod in the House that it had been tampered with after it was passed, and asked that a committee of investigation be ordered, which, however, was refused by the Radical members. The statement is 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 erty, by throwing obstacles in the way of tbe exercise of the right of suffrage by the poor men, the mass 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 control of our government, and extending that of black men.

Lancaster Intclb'genccr. Important Canal Coxthact. It is stated that an arrangement of much importance to the coal, iron and lumber interests of Pennsylvania has been consummated between the several canal lines on the Susquehanna river and its branches, embracing the Wyoming canal, the West Branch and Susquehanna, ike Pennsylva nia, and the Susquehanna and Tidewater canals. These several companies, togeiher owuing the whole system of canals draining the great infeiior of the and connecting it with tidewater, have entered into a contract which takes effect immediately. By this contract they respective'' bind themselves to operate their canals as one line on all through tonnage, -to pro rata all through tolls, and to enlarge all of their canals by the spring of 1871 to six feet depth of water.

It is estimated that this arrangement will affect a reduc tion of one-half on the vast tonnage of anthracite and bituminous coal, lumber and iron which annually seeks ti'e water by these lines, and will at once create an outlet for the coal of Pennsylvania, which will enable it to command the New York and Eastern markets, and thereby vastly extend the business and tonnage of the Susquehanna valley.

The captain, and his frien-1 the philologer, will no doubt become as renowned as the courageous climber who once got up to the dizzy summit of a steeple in honor of King James I. His majesty shuddered at the sight, and cried out: "Let that man have a patent for climbing York steeple nobody else shall interfere with him."

Mrs. Jano Kinney of Virginia, Warren County, recently became a grandmother at the early age of 31 years, she having been a mother at 1G. The daughter has well followed the maternal example by doing tbe same at 15. The Supreme Court has fixed the 27th instant to hear argument of the constitutionality of the registry act, at Har-risburg and their decision will, we trust, be delivered in advance of the actual operation of the most infamous political law that ever disgraced the statute book. It is stated that John Brown, an American sailor who lpnded at Valparaiso, Chili, a few years ago, penniless, friendless, and with nothing but his carpenter's trade to depend on, is now worth five million dollars, and lately loaned tho city two hundred and fifty thousand dollars in Some people in Hartford, moved thereto by floating newspaper paragraphs, recently collected several hundred cats wherewith to feed the animals in a menagerie now on a visit to that city.

The menagerie men refused to purchase, and the cats bad to be turned loose upon the neighborhood. Bogus reconstruction is flourishing in the South like the green bay tree. With half the white men disfranchised and all the negroes voting twice, with Mongrel candidates to count the ballots, and shameless commandants to declare results, it is not surprising that the late "elections" have gone more or less heavily in favor of so-called moral ideas and immoral practices. The New York Times says "Our stock of knowledge about Grant is constantly being enlarged from new and lively sources," antl gives us an illustration of Grant's idea of clams, which is that they are 'gutta-percha oysters." So now they have Grant's full stock of knowledge, embracing "horses," "pups," and "clams" The Times evinces a worthy pride in being the first to publish what Grant says on cLims. Mrs.
