TnE RrconD.-rhe candidate Of the oopperhssd.
In Pennsylvania, Is on Q platform endorsing Pres
ident Johnson II lie continues to abide by the
Constitution. Here is what he said Of Mr.. Jonn
son:
81 know. sir, that Andrew Johnson has gone as
far as the frthest, and is ready to go still farther
to destroy and uproot every principle upon which
this great and good government OF ours Is found
CD. l know that he has bent with suppliant knee
before the throne OF power. Iknop that for psif
or/or some Other consideration he has succumbed
to every measure presented to him."

THE UNION &c JOURNAL,

vulgar. insulting and disgraceful words could
have been uttered by any man worthy to hold
the Office Of President of the United States. 1t
will Be remembered that Mr.. johnson in that
speech Is reported to have accused MIR. stevens
of desire to assassinate him. II the President
made that remark he did it under circumstan'
ccs in which 1t would be unjust to hold him re.
sponsible for tho insult. 1t was the result Of
Of "assa.sin on the brain,"a disease with
which he has been seriously afflicted for monthss
but, can state with truth that no symptoms
have been discovered since the ODD, ofFebruary
when, II is supposed, that It was eifectually re-
moved by the remarkable action Of the brain on
that day.
... TRIAL OF JEFF DAVIS.
Although little Is heard by the public oil the
trial OF JEFF. Davis, slow, but steady progress
is being made by Judge Holt in preparations
for that long-iookcd for event. This chief OF
copspirators would have gone to his reward
long ere this, had 1t not been for the obstacles
repeatedly and persistently thrown In the way
of such consumation from source which had
pledged itself to SNAKE treason odious." The
officers ~ho have the case in charge have made
every effort to have the criminal brought to o
speedy trial and every such effort has received
cold bath from the President. 1t is now said
that JEFF. Davis will soon be tried bya militia.
ry commission, and convicted by ample evi.
dence now in possession Of the Government, OF
completely in the assassination OF Mr.. Lincoln.
Il is also stated by good authority that the
President will disapprove the sentence.
REMOVALS FROM OFFICE.
A largo number OF removals were made last
week In the various Departments OF the Gov
eminent, Of persons holding clerkships. The
cause Of removal was decrease in the amount
of business to be done, and not on account Of
hostility to the "policy" Of the President. The
thousands Of accounts arising from the war
and accommodating in such vastness as to re-
Quire the labor Of some thousands Of clerks, in
their settlement, have now been reduced to
such an extent that largo numbers of clerks
will DO dispensed with from time to time until
the number reaches approximation to the
number employed before the war.
