A NEW GROUND FoR IMPEACHING
THE PREsIDENT.-We had thought
that the radical majority would make
the New Orleans riot the chief pre-
text for bringing forward articles of
impeachment against the President,
and that, perhaps, his use of the veto
power during the last session would
be Incorporated in the charges mere
ly AS a catch weight. 1t seems, how
ever, that they have discovered
new and very important ground for
his removal, and one which will Ger
talnly take the country by surprise.
A radical paper, the Newark Courier.
brings it forward in q late issue, and
it is the allegation that he is crazy.
1t says: "All his actions since the 22d
of February last go to prove that he
has lost his mind" Commenting
upon this strange and absurd charge,
the Mobile Register says: ''It must be
admitted that there is a wonderful
method In his madness, ana that it
has pursued highly consistent
course of steady opposition to the
revolutionary designs of the radicals.
An exchange well remarks that it is
not an unusual thing for lunatics to
suppose others insane, and the insane
radical leaders show symptoms of
that disease Of the asylums. 1t
would be rare joke to see Thnd.
Stevens II Co. impeachiDg Mr.. John
son for craziness, and to see Chand-
Ter, Wade & Co. trying him on the
charge"

Have You Heard from Delaware,

The township elections in Delaware
were held last week aud there is no
Growing on the part of the radicals.
They don't even mention the fact and
have not shouted quite as much as they
did when the first unofficial returns of
the elections in Maine and Vermont were
announced. In fact, they have - good
reason for their gloomy silence, for in
Delaware the Democrats swept every
thing before them Tue maiorities are
much larger than they were IN the 2resi-
Dental election in 1861, aud in Newcastle
county, the only Republican county in
the State, the Democracy have fsur han

they carried two wards, aud gained l56

The Radicals, who are whining be-
cause few of their number were not
permitted to live on the Government
while villifying and thwartiDg those
who administer it, ought to be grateful
above all other men for forbearance on
the part of the Executive which has no
parallel in our political annals. The
Washington National Intelligencer has
collected a few facts which ought to
make the Radical placemen ashamed OF
themselves, if that were possible. In
Pennsylvania alone there is an army Of
Radical Office holders of over five thou:

larger; not one in fifty of them even pre-.
tending to favor the measures which
the President thinks essential for the
safety of the country, but on the con-

Meeting at West Liberty

One of the finest township meetin gs
nj the campaign was held on Saturday
Last, at West Liberty. About noon of
that day the sturdy Democrats and Con-
servatives of the vicinity began to as
somble in large numbers, and tie village
streets were soon thronged and packed
with the voting soyerelgns. The arrival
of Al numerous delegation from the neigh
h4iiug town of Triadelphis created quite
q stir The Triadelphians were preceded
by fine band of music and carried
pair Of splendid national banners. Their
entrance iuto the village, amid the wav-
ing of flags, the shouts and greetings of
tho sdmiring spectators, and the soul
stirring notes of martial music, was the
occs sion of much enthusiasm. The meet
iDg was organized by calling r DELA-
PI.i IN, Esq, to the chair, aud appointing
j. C.. POWERS, Esq, Secretary. After the
or gsuiz alton was effected, general dis
c, lssou of political issues, both State
snd National, was entered into
by Messrs. j. H. Coon aud Fl
S. WALKER. Mr. GOOD confined his
remarks more particularly to the radical
policy AS displayed in West Virginia
1 Legislation, while Mr.WALKER presented
the questions involved in national polit-
les, and dwelt at length upon the folly,
Inconsistency and injustice of the So
called Congressional plan of rsconstruc-
ton. The addresses, which occupied
about two hours and half in delivery,
were well received, aud at the conclu-
sion, each speaker was rewarded with
three rousing cheers. In response tot O.
loud and unanimous call from the as
semblage, BENoNI COOP, Esq, consented
