The expulsion of Mr.. Stockton from the
seat he has occupied during this session in the
Senate, created much excitement among the
Democrats and the supporters of Mr.. johnson.
Our Washington correspondent gives some
account OF the action of the Senate. The
closenees of the vote, and the effect which MI
Stockton's expulsion might have upon the
attempt to pass the civil rights bill over the
veto. attracted intense attention to the action
of the Senate, and gave great lmi ortancc to
the result. Several radical senator's, among
them MIR. Poland, vot ID against the expulsion,
on the ground that Mr., Stockton was legally
elected. All the Democrats and johnson men
also voted in favor of Mr.. Stockton.
The New Jersey legislature is now Republi-
can, but it cannot yet agree upon a joint meet
ing to elect successor to Mr.. Stockton. The
Republican majority in the New Jersey Senate
is only one, and one of the Republicans voted
with the Democrats against the resolution for
joint meeting, thus temporarily defeating 1t.
An election may be made this week in season
to add one to the Republican vote in the United
States Senate in favor of the Civil Rights bill,
but it is 5y no means certain. The vote
against he bill will, however be reduced one
by the absence OF MIR. Stockton.

every measure looking toward increasing the
power of the people by just such logic as this
of President johnson.
The few Republican papers that have hith-
erto approved President Johnson's course, and
insisted that be had done nothing to forfeit
the support of the party which elected him.

clude that his opinions ere wrong on the vital
question of equal rights Certainly this mes
sage could rot have been more hostile to

not therefore surprised that The hopeful Re-

There is hope that this bill will be

The EQuiVOCatOr.

The game of the little Joker seems to be
quite popular at the Executive mansion y
No phrase more aptly claracterizes the Presi-
dtnt's position in reference to the Republican
party than the expressive one, /" Now YOU see
il, and now you don't Sc. it," When Repnb-
c.ns visit him and inquire respecting his views
he Informs them that he stands by the party
which elected him, and fights his battle in the
Union ranks. Democrats appeal to him, and be
tells them that he stands bv the Union party;
out he means by that that he stands by the party
which supports his pollcy. He Informed some
Republicans from Connecticut that he desired
the success of the Ulion party in that State;
and day or two afterwards some Connecticut
Democrats visited him, and one of them in q
subsequent speech in Connecticut gave the fol-
lowing history of the interview:
We were there to say to the President that
representations had b-en made by the radicals
IN this State III It he was opposed 10 the cleo
ton Of James E. Engllsh. We read to him
the statement of MIR Owen and Mir. Grsvold,
that has appeared IN the public prints in which
they stat-. in substance, that the President de-
sired whatever battl's be fought, TO fight within
The L nion party. He said, - IL is true stated
that but when | said The Union party, did
not mean the men who endeavOrlug
TO break up this Union, but the men who
stand by me- TumultIous cheering long
continued. Said =" believe the mainle-
nance of TINS Union depends upon the policy
which have indicated TO Congress, and those
who sustain that policy my friends, and
those who oppose that poncy | certainly have
no desire TO elected any office Ire
mendous cheering We stated TO him that
Postmaster Ceveisud, at Hartford, had nobiy
come forward il defence Of our candidate for

letter then handed 10 him IN which be
stated 10 the Pre- sident that b had token this
course, and if It vas not sat sfactory 10 the
President, his resignation was IN his hands.
Ine President TOOK the letter and endorsed
upon the back OF il, you have already read
in The public priuts: " Your political sction

proved. YJur resignation is, therefore, not
accepted, bat is herewith returned. ANDREW

Yet after such double dealing and equivoca-

to believe Mr.. Johnson honest. Such sim.
plicity of faith can only be parall7led by vic
and other confidence games.

The Appointment of Hon. g. +
dmundS, as u. s. Senator.

The death of Senator Foot devolved upon
Gov. Dillingham; the exceedingly delicate anc
important duty of appointing his successor, q
duty al. the more delicate from the fact that
the Governor had already been compelled to
appoint person to fill the vacancy oocasioned
by Senator Collamer's decease, and in that APP
pointment had not achieved the moral impos-
sibility OF pleasing everybody. The most prom
inent persona presented to the Governor as sue
cessor to MIR. Foot were Ex-Governor Hland
Halt, Hon. q. +. Edmunds, Hon. Levi Under
wood Elk Governor Smith and Judge Kellogg.
Judge Kellogg not a candidate by his own
choice but ms name was presented ty the bar
of Rutland County. Ex-Governor Hall was
not a candidate, but his appointment Was urged
chiefly by those who desired clear coast next
tall. We have not learned who vas urging
Ex- Governor Smiths appointment, only We
know that be candidate. The prominent
men in Burlington and the west side OF the
