A recent announcement in tho Cincinnati
Commercial, that Major Grsnm had been ap-
pointed postmaster at Charleston, W. Va,
filled our citizens with surprise and indisna,

and upright in his official duties, that he had
won the confidence and esteem Of oil parties; ;
therefore it was resolved that VIC could not
tamcly: submit to having. this good man
turned out, and his placso, supplied by man
in whom but few persons hare any confidence,
and petition was got up and signed by some
ESQ citizens, WITHOUT respect to party-sct-
ting forth the facts, and requesting the President
to reconsider his action in clio case. Since this
petition llas been sent on; many persons have

The Right Of Discussion.

The Eicl,mond(va.) Wing Of Saturday, Goth
utimo after quoting m extract from the
speech of j. W. llunn;cnt!, the Southern del
c.atc, nj indianapolis, speaks as follows:
"lrthiS man returns to Richmond, ought he
not to he arrested, not for his political opin-
ions, but as an incendiary and dislurbcr Of the
public peace"
1t is full time the Southern people were
cured Of this distcmpcr. For thirty years they
crushed out freedom Of speech and Of the
press. In time Of profound peace, and on
topics Of general conccrnmcnt, no man was
allowed 10 speak or print otherwise thnn rs
tho slavcho!dins aristocracy, and the political
leaders assimlatins Herewith, consented and
dccrccd. Northern men, going South, and
only suspected Of holdVS opinions obnoxious
to that ariStocracy, were commonly subjected
to mob violence, and found themselves with
out means of redress. The rights guaranteed
to them by the constitution were dciiantly
tramplcd upon. Now, the loyal men of the
nation mean that this condition ofalIa!rs shall
not be renewed ), that all Southern men, sub
jcct only to proper aIncnability to the consl'-
tuition and laws, shall enjoy the right freely
to discuss, in their places of abode or else
where, all public questions; and that North
orn men, going South, shall he just MS secure

Judge Berkshire.

We were called upon last week to
insert a communication presenting
the cause Of Judge Berkshire for re-.
election to the Court of Appeals
against Mr.. Maxwell, the nominee Of
the party. We know neither Of the
gentlemen personally, but it is sufficient
for us that our delegates at Parkcrs-
burg chose Maxwell, and we unite
our humble voice with that of the
press Of the State, in calling upon
the people to support tho regular
nominee, and not aid in clccting the
Conservative candidate by dividing
the Union party. We give an en-
tract from the Ritchie Press which
expresses our views on that subject
exactly:
"That he was not selected by the
Convention is all that VIC want to
know, to determine us rs regards our
duty in the premises. 1t is not for us
it is not for the people, to 60 be,
hind the action Of that body, 10 en-.
quire whether he ought, or ought not,
to have been nominated. The neces.
sity for convention to select the. can.
didates Of the party, was so apparent
as to be acknowledged BY all. In pur-
suance Of this necessity, convention
was held, tho delegates having been
selected by the people, after having
been fairly notified, and called upon,
to come up to the discharge Of this
duty. 1t is fair to assume that this
convention came as near represent.
ing the sentiments and wishes Of the
people, rs it is possible to have them
represented, in a body Of that kind !;
and therefore, beth uspirauts and pco.
pie, should hold the action Of the con.
vention rs both final and binding
We hold that when a mun submits Ills
claims to q: convention, he is in honor
bound to abide by its decision.-
Judge Berkshire, or any other man,
had the right to refuse to submit his
claims, and to run as an independent
candidate yet, whilst we concede
such right, we could not approve of
the spirit that would have prompted
such o course. It would have mani.
tested a supreme; selishncss, and
blindness to the necessities Of the
party, entirely Incompatible with on
appreciation Of the. great principles
and public interests at stake. 4.;,..

A. JOhnson's Policy.

Ono year ago VIC hadn't moro radical
Union man tllnn Andrew johnson. Hc was
for Furnishing traitors, making treason odio'ls,
DISTINGUISHING rebels, and even dividing their
property among Union men and freedmen
His policy then was moro severe than any par
" now holds. lie favored and presented. condI.
tions for the admission Of tho rcbcliouS States
telling them they must abolish slavery, re-
pudiatc tho rebel debt, &C., and that they
should do this lecause Congress-, te9o hal Tie
power, ,rouU not Ie satisfied tath anything less; !;
but unfortunately he pledged himself that
his conditions (since called ""my policy,")
would DO accepted by Congress, which he had
no right or power to do. Congress thought
additional conditions necessary, and this was
the beginning Of the difference between John
son and Congress- and the result is, johnson
now opposes the very conditions he at first
imposed upon the rebel States.
And ,chy this change? We at first attrib-
utcd it to stubborn Sclf.will, and tho opposi-
ton to his policy and the abuse Of himself by
extreme men in Congress. But Congress at
last proposed the present constitutional
amendment, which embodied JohnSon's own
previously declared sentiments, viz: guarantees
from traitors for their future behavior.
And when he came out in open opposition
to the amendment, denouncing in the; yilcst
terms the Union Representatives, Of the poo
pie in Congress as traitors, while he had only
partlons and positions for rebels and copper
heads, then nc could no longer excuse him, nor
could we explain his conduct as before; and
We were forced into the conclusion that A.
Johnson had deserted the Union party, and
was cndcayorins to make up n party Of cop.
pcrheads, rebels and corrupted office seekers,
by w1irA he hop-d to k reelected President. This
will explain his conduct, while it Gun be cx-
planned in no other way.
Union men, will you vote to support such
q MANI tool Of tho late rebels. II not, you
will vote for Polslcy and the Union ticket,
that your voice may be counted on the side OF
Union, loyalty, and constitutional safeguards
against another rebellion.

Soldiers anil Citizens: You arc hereby
warned Of the further plottinss Of the

this Congressional District. Partizan
demagoguism is their motto and watch
word. They know that all of MS Union
men, both Of this Valley and Of this
State, are opposed to negro suffrage,
aud all that. say they know it. But
they expect 10 carry out their game of
fraud upon you, by making you believe
their lie, and thereby get your votes for
their candidate for Congress, and also
for Ben. Smith for Governor, and as
much Of the rest Of their ticket as they
can stuff into your minds. This is evil
IDENTIFY their purpose, as shown by the
face Of the last card, which they have
just played: 3d.. .'..
General IOlcy is announced as their
candidate for, Congress this morning.
And why2: Because they believe him
to be the most available man Of the cop
pcr-Johnson party to filch from among
Union men votes to sustain them in
their nefarious purposes. 1t is pity
that General Obey has thus Individually
shown that his record to which no
refers you in llis: circular, should lead.so
directly to the worship Of traitorous
aristocracy and "'one:man ~ power, his
exhibited BY Andrew johnson when he
declared to General Logan, in speaking
Of the people, -" THEY shall adopt'' MY
Policy y.God." BY what means would
Andy effect this? By buying up men
who havo had a good record aud placing
them before you az candidates for your
suffrage, asking it in consequence Of
their former record. Now, soldiers,
this is why General Obey. is placed be-
fore you. as candidate for Congress-
He has stoodyhigh in: your estimation as
