W. cannot realize that he who was made President
of the United States by the pistol Of Wilkes Booth
has any moral right to remove from Office those who
helped make him Vice-Presdent, in order to fill their
places with Copperheads and ex.Rebels. Even if it
were ceac-wbch it surely is not-that Presidents
may justifaby remove from office those who opposed
their election in order TO appoint those who supported
IT, consider Mr. Johnsons very different from
that. and we deny his right to remove those who
helped him TO Office in order to appoint instead those
who reved him of the worst of mankind
Hence think il right in Congress TO do all in its
power TO Republicans in office from prescription
Having done that We neither fear deprecate his

remove every Republican ofice.holdsr within his

THE PROPOSED ARmIsTICE.

The latest European accounts which publish
this morning and which are one day later than the
adyices brought by the Peeire report the acceptance
by Prussia and Italy Of the proposed armstice. The
news, however, is not official, and lacks we think,
confirmation, especially It does not well agree with
semoficial statements OF the Prussian Government.
In the mean time Il may already be regarded rs
certain that the cession of Veneta TO France means
new combination in the Italian war. The
very acceptance of the proposed cession by France
would make it certain that Austria, in exchange re-
ceiyed very positive assurances of French sympathy
and support in her conflict with Prussia. This
supposition is strengthened by the accounts from
Vienna and Paris. An official paper Of Vienna tells
US that the Emperor had for some time been intend
ing TO make this offer to France, in order thus
to obtain separate peace with Italy, and be thereby
enabled to use his whole army against Prussia. Dis
patches from Paris state that, when Italy and
Prussia hesitated to adopt the proposed armis-
tice, the French Government ordered her fleet TO
take formal possession Of Venice. and the French flag
to bc hoisted oil along the frontier, and that she
warned the Italians not To attack part of what was
now French territory. The semi-oical papers began
70 take in a very conspicuous manner, side with AUS
tria against Prussia, and to demonstrate that dis
memberment Of Austria would not he in the interest
ofFrance.
The next arrival from Europe will probably give rs
authentic news Of the acceptance or rejection of the
armistce L. the present stage of the negotiations,
it looks as though France has agreed with Austria
upon an attempt TO detach Italy from the alliance
with Prussia aud TO leave Austria not only at liberty
TO continue the against Prussia, but to give her
in this war at least the moral aid Of France.
longer continuance Of the war among the German
States would of course lead to exertons of each
of tho contcnding Powers to gam the friendship of
France and to an emulation to make 10 France the
most advantageous offers of territorial aggrandize-
ment in exchange for her aid.

Ing the Excise law il defiance of the Supreme Court
decisions in Brooklyn, We print herewith IN full the
very able opinion of Judge Gilbert in one Of the cases
decided The learned Judge puts his points with
great clearness and vigor. He speaks like man OF
strong convictions and in the tone of one who IL free
from all doubts as to the right of his own views, and
as to the rrong of those oour Common Pleas Judges
Our contemporary, The Sunday Mercury in sour
rlous attack upon the Judge for his decision, seems
to think his moral characterize the same could be
proved By Senator Murphy were he called as wit
ness-bad enough to have brought him to different
conclusion upon the consttutonality of this liquor
law Perhaps Judge Gilbert will accept the criterion
of character rendered by The Mercury and point to
his decision as proof that if bis tastes are not quite
wholesome his morals are at least not so bad as The
Mercury would insinuate. The Judge, however did
not seem to be troubled by the article in question
when brought before him By Mr.. Dstrict-Attomey
Morris He seems to think that neither his character
nor his tastes need any yindicaon in court of Law
an opinion in which, we believe, all who know him
fully share.
In truth, Il is very hard thing to make " Rum
Democrat" out Of an Old Line Wing and still harder
thing to make corrupt Judge out Of an able, upright
lawyer.
