Wanted--An Impeachment.

The New York Tribune, under the head of
GA Case for Impeachment" mrkes out
against Postmaster General Holt an elabor-
ate indictment. three and a half columns
long. The graudmea of the charge is knowing
and deliberate connivance at Mr.. Postmaster
FowLER's defalcation through series of
years. The Tribune proves from Mr.. Hours
own admissions, in his published statement:
First-That the books and accounts of his
Department are not kept in accordance either
with the letter or spirit of the law.
Second-That the whole time he has been
in Office. more than year, the settlements
with the New York Postmaster we're" decep-
tive" Sc altogether delusfve,'' that GO not q
dollar of the enormous balance due frcm
Fowler was paid. but only an unlawful
transfer of Indebtedness from one quarter to
another during a period of more than a
year.
Third--That by these means, during his
term, there has been a defalcation of at least
$50. 900, which is total loss, unless a part
of it can be made on the bond of the security
the securities of Fowler are absolutely dis
charged by these deceptive and delusive set.
Elements.
The Tribune concludes with the following.
In the face of this official confession to the
House of Representatives, Mr.. Holt has no
escape from Impeachment If the House OF
Representatives does its duty. A warniug
| and example is needed. and here stands MIR
Holt culppit with his COME sion in his

ed of dealing with him as he pretends to deal
with official delinquency. he pursues with

negligence have lost to the Government

Fitzpatriek's Letter Of Deciension.
WASHINGTON, June 25. 1860

GENTLEMEN: Your letter of to-day infOi m
ing me that have been unanimously nomi-
mated by the National Conv. ntion of the
Democracy which met at Charleston on the
23d of April last, and adjourned to meet at
Baltimore OH the 18th of June, as their cam
didate for the Office of Vice President, was
duly received. Acknowledging with the
liveIest s-nsibility this distinguished mark of
your confidence aud regard. it is with no
ordinary feelings OF regret that .onsidera-
lions, the recital of which will not impose
upon you. C nstrain me to decline the nomi-
nation so 1atteringly rendered. My designa-
ton as a candidate for this high position
would have been more gratifying to me if it
had proceeded from a united Democracy
united both as 10 principles and to men. The
distracting differences at present existing in
the ranks OF the Democratic party were
strikingly exemplIfied both at Charleston and
Baltimore, and, in my humble opinion. dis
tInctly admonlsh me that i should in no
way contribute to these unfortunate divis-
ions.
The Black Republicans have tremendously,
at least in Convention. presented their can
didates for the Presidency and Vice Presi-
dency. So has the Constitutional Union
party, as il is termed. Each party is already
| engaged for the contest. In the presence OF
such organizations, we still unfortunately
e4hipit DIVIDED camp. What melancholy
| specttclei 1t is calculated to cause every
Democratic citizen, who cherishes the Consti-
| tuition OF his country, to despond. if not to
despair, of the durability OF the Union.
DESTROYS, as far as 1 am capable of exercis-
ing any influence, to remove every obstacle
| which may prevent q restoration of the peace
harmony and perfect concord of the glorious
old party 10 which / have been infiexibly
devoted from early manhood-a party which
in my deliberate opinion, Is the only real aud
reliable ligament which binds the South, the
North, the East and the West together upon
constitutional principles-no alternative wal
left TO me but that which i have herein mos
respectfully communicated TO you.
For the agreeable manner in whrch YOU
have conveyed 10 me the action of th,
Convention, accept my sincere thanks.
Very truly your friend and ob't servant,
b. FITZPATRICK.

The wife of Garibaldi died of fatigue en-
dared to save her husband. Foreign Nesrs.
o, thou who persisted in holy cause,
In all thy hearts fond purity and youth,
Above thy ashes let the scoffer pause
And muse on woman's constancy and truth;
Her firm endurance TO the one beloved,
Exalted hope and tenderness divine,
Which babe her meet the bitterest fate immoyed
And offer life itself upon lore's shrine.
On that high shrine full many gift is placed,
Concentrating deeds that hearts have done,
And on it affairs many line is traced,
OF those who worshipped but to be undone.
There youth hath lain its gories-life its prime,
And genius offered up its hard-earned crown,
But, woman such sacrifice as thine
This heeless world hath seldom looked upon.
Who but a woman when the check had paled,
And e firm step had slower grown and faint,
When even hope of saving him has failed,
Could calmly die, and utter complaint
Where low sing the signing night winds sing,
Mid trees whose branches stoo, to kiss the wave,
Was given her rest from all her wandering,
Beneath the peaceful quiet of the grave.
Oh, man may love with fervor, but it is in vain
To hope from him the holy, patient iaith-
The stoical indifference to love or pain,
Endured to save the loved, that woman hath,
His heart is fondest aud his woe most warm,
When joys bright sun shines Affections wreatt
But woman, thou cIps't love through danger an
through storm,
Unfading, chcnseIess, eren until death,

TIE BREcKNR1DeE PARTT.-Mr. YAScEr is
unquestionably the greatest of the leaders of
the Breckenridge party. he made a speech
at the close Of the proceedings of the seeding
faction, Immediately after the nomination
was made, in which he said:
3. am no worshipper at the shrine of the
Union. / am no Union-shrieker. ] am neith-
er for the Union, nor against the Union ;
neither for disunion nor against disunion."
In speaking of Mr. DoCGLAs and his ad-
herents, he said:
Can give them any other name than the
name by which they will be damned to i'm
mortality-the name of a reckless political
faction"
This sentiment was received by the con-
claEe. of seceders with applause. as was
his speech generally. II shows very clearly
the outlines of the policy of the party which
is playing into tie hands of these disunion-
lists.

Returning Delegates.

Several of the seeding delegates from the
Baltimore Convention have passed down the
road this week. They look sad and despond-
ing, though in all probability an effort will
be made to get up some show of qualification
and enthusiasm in this State over the nomi-
nations of the Southern or Seeding Ticket.
However. in three weeks from this time,
there will not be man in the State bold
enough To- assert that the ticket has the re-
hottest chance of an election. IS No Chance
is written all over the faces of the returning
delegates, and the best they expect to do is
to carry some three or tour Southern States,
with the hupe of throwing the election into
the House of ves--a contingency
to be prevented if possible, and which can
be prevented by the people taking the con-
test into their own hands, and electing Bell
aud Eyeretk-Afkns Pod. ~

~ The sectionalists and disunionists are
the most unfortunate of men. They set out
in 1882, aud Gen jackson overwhelmed them
with confusion, defeat and shame. Nearly
twenty years after. in 1S50-5l. they organi-
zed another attempt to carry their point in
several of the Southern States where the
ultra sentiments were most prevalent: and IN
the pending popular elections Ire people
drove them from The field in terrific discom-
future and confusion. They retired from their
positions and the men who were foremost la
leading their hosts took the high front seats
in the Union synagogue. They who de-
nouncpd most bitterly the Compr mise of
1850, became, in act, its staunches friends
They who had planted themselves against the
doctrine of non-intervention and popular
sovereignty and held what they termed
Southern rights to be paramount to all other
questions, turned about and became the
sterneSt opponents OF the slavery agitation.
In 1858. Mr.. YANcEY in view OF the national
contest IF this year, broke the peace and en-
deavored TO organize par y in the South
devoted to disunion under the name OF the
"Southern Le.gue." In that he also failed.
The people, even of his own State, were dis
eusted with the proposition and turned from
it with contempt.
The genius of revolution and civil war
next manifested itself in unending philippics
against prominent democratic aspirant foE
the Presidency, the embodiment. it is true. of
a visionary dogma and an absurd heresy;
but the same that the Democracy have con-
stantly supported since 1s4s. The abuse of
Douglas was coupled with a declaration that
the election of Republican would be suf-
fcient ground for dissolution Of the Union.
Thus they sought to do Indirectly what they
could not do direetly-by breaking up the
democratic party. aiding as much as they
could possibly do, to bring about the very
event on which they hoped to destroy the
Union, the wit, the election of Republican.
They have succeeded in destroying the dem
ocratic party, and now they are up for the
chances of Southern confederacy, and its
attendant consequences. But the people are
too intelligent TO be deceived by The poorly
disguised trick of monstrous design. They
failed in '32-they failed in '50-51-tbey
failed in IS and they will again fail in GO.

The Philadelphia Press. of Wednesday, con-
tains terrible article on the second protest
of the President against the CovoDE Commit
tee. We give a passage respecting Mr.. b.
CHANAN:
The President of the United States, who
deals in jobs and offers brides to independent
journalists. should not vince when the voice
of the nation demands that his conduct
should be rebuked. Even the magnetic tele-
graph falls under the solemn denunciations
of our high and mighty Chief Magistrate; but
he ought to recollect that he who has at
tempted to prostitute that great agent of in
telligence to his own uses should not bewaiI
his fate when others insist upon employing it
for themselves.
Mr.. Buchanan talks of the cowardice'' Of
employing insulting language against the
President. Has he ever reflected upon the
cowardice" of President, who clothed
with almost unlimited power, rewards the
corrupt and strikes down the honorable. ex-
pels men from office without explanation,
and lays his heavy hand upon all who dare
to think and act like freemen? He tells US
too, OF the Lions Mouth of Venice" the
Star Chamber of England" and /" the Revo-
lutionary tribunal of France in the days of
Robespierre." But is there not another
I" lions mouth" in Washington? Has he not
permitted abandoned mercenaries to drop in
to his ear the worst calumnies against his best
| friends Has not his Cabinet been 90 Star
Chamber" in which every honest man has
Ue, Il punished. and free principles betrayed?
And has not the Revolutionary tribunal of
hUbcsplerre" been an accepted precedent for
that - Reign Of Terror" which commenced
under his own Administration, when he re-
solv d TO turn back upon his record, and to
seek the overthrow OF the vital principle of
seli-government? An Elective DespoLism'
| is another of the Horrors of Mr.. Buchanan.
Is it worse than an oligarchy composed Of
slave-drivers, who hunt free men because
they dare to be free, and insult and degrade
the representatives of the people? Or worse
than dictatorship in which one usurps the
rights of all, and destroys these rights with
out mercy?

dency on the DOUGLAS ticket, after having,
through a friend. personally sought it, by a
promise of reelection TO the United States
Senate. There may be some truth in the al
legation. During the last session of the Le-

that Mr.. FITZPATRICK would be laid aside.

The Breckenridge democracy, which met at
the Court House on Saturday, were so earn
est in their expressions of love for the Union,
that one might have supposed it was a Bell
and Everett demonstration. If it had not
been for some unguarded expressions COM
plimenlary to the democratic party, and an
appeal to the party to vote for Breckenridge
and Lane-which were doubtless thrown out
in the heat of the momeut,- and very hot
moment it was-we should have concluded

20 The BRECKINRIDGE democracy are
carrying their outward expressions of devo-
tion to the Union to a romantic length. They
are so jealous in that behalf, that in drawing
their resolutions they made mention of the
Union even before the Constitution. This is
going little too far. Bat the poor mendi-
