The New Hampshire Republican State
Convention, which met at Concord on the

resolution
Resolred, That the scheme to subyert our
foreign bayonets an Austrian despotism instead
having had its origin in undisguised hostility to
the United States, il Is the urgent duty Of our
Government 20 take such decisive measures as
will bring about the early abandonment of what

lie has reputation for sense and "man-
hood which viii give his statements n
weight that could never be attached, North
or South, TO the opinions Of mere poll
ticians.
So well satisfied are we OF this, that we did
not hesitate 10 say that If Gen. Grant were
to point out TO Mr.. johnson any special evil
existing among US, which evil we conld rem
edy. we would consider the suggestion with
respectful attention. And this because we
believe him 20 be honest and modest and
generous; capable Of appreciaiing, as he has
shown, the character and feelings of the men
who but yesterday charged with headlong
fury upon his lines, or barred with grim
resolution his march TO Richmond.
Mr.. johnson has in this, as in many other
things, shown wise forecast and we have
the satisfaction of knowing that the honesty
Of the South has been vindicased by the re-
port Of Gen. Grant

The Picdurne learns from gentleman re-
Gently from the interior Of the State that the
freedmen positively refuse to make new con-
tracts-to work or leave the plantations.
This is their reply to the owners of several
large plantations where the freedmen were
comfortably located and it was thought they
were entirely contentcd. They were respect
full and peaceful. They allege as their reason
that they expect a new proclamation that
will materially benefit their condition.

SHOOTING of policemen is getting to be
very fashionable. We have recently chron-
icled occurrences Of this sort in this city,
Louisville and Columbia. We learn from
the Augusta, Ga, papers, that Jas. Nj. Tyler
policeman, was recently shot in that city.
Lawlessness prevails everywhere, North
and South. Crime goes unpublished. No
man has any security for his life.
This reminds us that some six weeks
since one Of our most orderly and useful
citizens, while returning home at night from
school exhibition, was halted in the
suburbs of the city, by gang of despcradoes,
dragged out ofhis carriage and murdered, in
cold blood, for money, in the presence of
his wife and daughter. Fortunately, rs the
community supposed at the time circum
stances led to the speedy detection ana
arrest of the robbers, who admitted their
guilt. This band of scoundrels had been
numbering and robbing our citizens Tor
months previous and had become terror 10
the community They were turned over by
the civil to the military authorities, not
doubling but that they would be dealt wl'h
in that summary manner which the enor-
nifty of their crimes and their confession,
justified, and which is the surest way OIL
making salutary the just penalty OF the law
The parties were duly tried and duly con-
victed upon their own confessions. Inc
public looked for their speedy execution
The culprits were more hopeful and thongh'
they would not be hung. Weeks and weeks
have passed, and the Hedernan murderer'
have almost ceased TO be talked about
Crime still stalks abroad. The fear o.
punishment is no longer restraint to eva
doors. The simple mention of these facts
without argument ought TO be enough Z
awaken the attention Of the authorities e
the great evils and greater dangers to which
society is exposed
