what the Radicals Intend.

Daily clinching testimony comes to the
knowledge Of the public through Repub-
lican sources, that 1t is the purpose of the
Republican leaders, In the event that the
people shall unaccountably elect a amajofity
of Republican candidates to Congress, to
impeach President JOHNSON and make short
work Of him afterwards. Such revolutions
ary proceedings the mass Of the Republican
voters do not want to see inaugurated.
They have had enough of civil war; they
have enough of taxes to pay growing out
of that war; enough of their friends and
relatives have lost their lives or were
wounded in that war to satisfy them. The
leaders of their party who have got their
clutches upon the Government, have no
idea of letting 60 or of paying heed to the
Presidents earnest appeals for them to con-
form to the letter and spirit of the COnsti-
tuition. Upon revolutionizing this Govern
ment they are determined. II the people
shall not defeat them at the polls, by their
impeachment of and assaults upon the
President, they will again throw the coun-
try into civil war. a.fl

1t is currently, but we would hope, scan
dalously, reported that certain policemen
and other executive officers, not excepting
a few in Uncle Sans service, are in the
habit ofarresting persons on slight grounds,
tor alleged violations of the law, and, when
they cannot make out case against their
prisoners, they put off the examination
or trial from time to time, till thelr, victims,
worried out by the delay, are brought to
consent to pay the officers their fees, and
often largebohus into the bargain, in or
der to escape from these ministersof injus-
tice. 1t cannot be that we have any such
harpies in Columbus, and yet we are sorry
to say we have heard ihsinuations to that

Whal Did Petition and HeemOn-
Nframce Avail?


When I'm 1901 business men and me-
chanIcs poured into Congress Inconsistencies
against War and petitions in favor Of such
a peaceable Adjustment as would be humil-
iating to neither section, they were unheed-
ed by the Republican members of Congress.
For blood some of the leaders ciamOred.-
Nothing but blood would satisfy them.
Blood we have had. They are not satisfied.
Their legislation has been designed to light
anew the fires Of hate between the North
and the South. Should these men be elect
ed again whose legislation in Congress has
been revolutionary, what heed think
you would they pay to petitions or
iremOnstrances of the peopleG Did
the people ask them to pass the bill giving
suffrage to the negroes in the District Of
Columbia? Did hepeople ask them to pass
Freedmen's Bureau bill, which is to fur
nish snuggeries to Republican politicians,
who win make fat livlngs out of the toll and
enterprise Of the people? Did the people
n ask them TO pass Civil Rights bill, where
by the negro is invested with privileges
that are denied the white man9 Did the
people ask them to pass Constitutional
Amendment whereby the Southern negroes
are made the equal citizens Of the most fa-
vored white menP The ideathatsuch gen
! tlemen will pay any attention to the re-
monstrances or petitions of the people is
,preposterous. The only way to bring them
TO their senses is to vote them out of office

Radical violence Ia the caucus should be

date the other Together they, amount to
Quite enough to show the necessity Of vigil
lance and effort on thepar Of the conserv-
alive members of the Republican party, If
they would avert difficulties more serious
than those already encountered. AS an IL
lustratlon, read this, from the Washing
tor, correspondence Of the Rochester Demo
crdt:
"Another of the Secretaries, the ablest Of
them all said to Senator yesterday, who
was bitterly denouncing the conduct which
was robbing the country of the frui@ OF the
past sacrifices: Yes Senator, it is, but 1t
will be worse before 1t Is better The Cab
met discussion Is believed to relate to the
wholesale removals from office, which II, Is
now known beyond q dOubt Is determined
upon. If Congress shall .checkmate this
desperate treachery by the passage of the
bill reported by Judge Trnmbull, we may
look for series of acts which will end in
the impeachment of Mr.. johnson. There are
note teto toho believe there can be no safety for
tie Republic tohile this desperate ddUsI,tlTer re-
maths in the ESecutiue chair. These persons
are not unwilling to give bin the chance 70
commit thaJ SUICIDAL acC WHICH Will MAKE
his removal necessarily This may be con-
sidered wild talk; but it is necessary to
speak out plainly. Ambiguity In phrase or
action now isa much treachery as it would
have been to desert the colors or stand still
on the field of battle" 9f. ga ~
OF course the Secretary referred to Is
mythical, as the Secretaries of Washington
correspondents usually are. The remark
attributed to him, however, is not very
bad, after all. The position may be worse
before it Is better--oertainly it will be, If
the Radicals be allowed to have their way.
And even Secretary might say so without
being guilty of treason. Yet this trivial
incident, which may or may not be true, Is
made pretext for repeating stereotyped
abuse of the President and for familiarlz-
ing the Radical mind with sense of the
necessity of removing him at any cost, by
impeachment or otherwise. The talk Is
nonsense, obviously, seeing that President
Johnson's great sin, in Radical eyes, is
not violations OF the Constitution, but-a
too rigid adherence to its letter and spirit.
But it Is one OF many signs pointing to
bloody strife, unless the Union sentiment
of the country rally to restrain and put
down the authors of these threats.

The entertainment given by the Hanlon
Brothers, last night, was enjoyed by one of
the largest crowds ever gathered within the
walls of "Old Drury." Seats or standing
room there was none tospare. Every niche
and corner in dress circle, parquette and
gallery was filed Notwithstanding the
jam, every one present was greatly pleas
ed, or rather we should say, delighted with
the performances III sHyTE EETT-.J5
To speak in detail of the exhibition last
night would be to repeat what we have al
ready said of these truly artistic, wonder
full and elegant feats and shows. There
were several new things introduced last
evening, which we had not witnessed be-,
fore, but they all bore the impress of the
same skill and genius wi ich made the per-
formances, we had previously seen SO en-
tertaining.
Recently we have had nothingin Colum-
bus that could, as whole, be entitled to
praise as first class amusement, or even
as displaying genuine artistic skill. But
the Hanlon Brothers came, and presto! what
a change! They have, as we trust, inaug-
urated new era in the amusement line in
our city; the public appreciate.their talent
and skill as wen as the elegance, ease and
rapidity with which the performances are
exhibited, and henceforth, we hope, to be
no more afflicted with inferior shows and
| shams.
To-nightlis the closing exhibition and
farewell benefit of the Hanlon Brothers.
1t is positively their last appearance this
season in Columbus. Tonight there Will
be general change in the programme. AS
the closing entertainments it may be ex-
pected to excel any that have preceded it.
Among other wonders, there will be pre-
sented tonight the mysterious Egyptian
fSphynx; Tanners trained dogs and mon
keys, whose antics delight everybody the
astonishing and curious acrobatic feats Of
the Hanlon Brothers; the brilliantly illu-
minated Minnehaha, or " laughing water;"
the admirable musical olio, aud the strange,
eccentric and laughable shadow panto-
mime.
By aIlsneans, go and see the Hanions on
this, their last night at the Atheneum.

The Way 10 Avert Another Civil
War.

The impeachment and attempted execu-
tion Of President JOHNSON by the Radicals
in Congress, would unquestionably produce
a War more disastrous than the War
through which the country lately passed.
The people would not stand by quietly and
see that Infamous outrage perpetrated upon
the President, because he is striving faith
fully to administer the Government in con-
formity to the requirements Of the Consti-
tuition, and in such way as the people,
North and South, shall henceforth dwell to-
gether in harmony under the same Gov
ernment. -te
Such a calamity-the calamity of anoth-
er Civil War-can easily be averted. Let
the people by an emphatic and Overwhelm-
ing vote dismiss from power the Republican
politicians who are a standing impediment
in the way of Restoration. Such dismissal
will effectually settle the matter. No blood
shed will follow no revolution will follow;
because before the majesty of such de-
cree the Revolutionists will cover. Peace,
Prosperity and Happiness will attend their
defeat. t rrtaa4a. .rf.. a.a

InstaIImeut Policle.-A New Feature


Gmstallmeut POlIcies--A New Feature.
.tNN In Life Insurance.. G
Progress and improvement is the pecu-
liar feature of the present age. :And the att
tention now given to Life Insuranceby the
most Intelligent and sagacious capitalists
and business men generally is but another
Illustration of the fact. y WsHN Ns
The officers of the Mutual Life Insur-
ance Company of New York-although
the growth and success of the Company
In the past has been unparalleled--are still
mindful OF the progressive spirit of the
times. y J 81 III lyIDl]
This Company now proposes to introduce
new feature IN Lie Policies which cannot
fail to be appreciated by Its present numer-
GUS insurers, and to attract large number
Of others.
To have secured to widow and orphans
the gradually accumulating surplus of the
earnings Of ahusband and father athiside-
cease was great advance in provident wis
dom and fOrethought.
But who in rejecting upon the subject
has not felt the want of further provision
by which the object of his affection and
care should receive the surplus. thus ac-
cumulated with as little of care andrespon-
sibility to themselves as possible.
To provide for this wantso long and gen
orally felt by insurers, the Mutual Life In
surance Company proposes to continue the
trust reposed in 1t by its insurers afCeR a
claim is substantiated, so that instead Of
paying the policy in one large sum, to dis
charge it with, theaecumulations and in
terest in a series of annual contributions of
from five to twenty-five years. The plan
more in detail will be found in the circular
of the Company in another column.
The Insurance and Real Estate Journal of
New York, referring to the 'Installment
Policies" proposed by tile Mutual Life In
surance Company, says: "Ihe high char
acter ofthe Company which it has sustain-
ed unimpeached fora quarter of a century,
Its almost imperishable assets of $16,O 100000,

is guarantee that every obligation of the
future will be met in the same lofty spirit

90 I-l, a Pioasant DAY. D II.lL

-
After the copious showers of Wednesday
afternoon and Wednesday night, the wealth
er became yesterday delightfully."- cool and
refreshing. 1t was pleasantalld day, the sky
being overcast with clouds just enough to
intercept and veil the fierce sunshine that
had, for week or more previous, produced
such overpowering heat as to raise the ther-
mometer to a hundred degrees or more in
the shadei But with yesterday came an
agreeable change, and everybody we met
seemed to speak of the pleasantness of the
day as if imparting an interesting item of
local news. Yet what is in everybody's
mouth can hardly be said to be news to any
one. Still, as 1t is said to be the highest ef-
fort of geniusto s0pen down its thoughts
that all men will recognize and appropriate
them as their own, we have, said that yes
terday was a pleasant day, which probably
all our city readers will say they knew be-
fore they saw it in the paper.

Good Cheer for Ihe Ohio DemOc-

Why should there not be good cheer for
the Ohio DemocracyP Through good and
through evil report they have stood by the
faith as handed down by THOMAS JEFFER-
SON and ANDREW JACKSON. Unfaltering-
ly devoted to the Constitution and its COM
promises they have been all along. From
the beginning they have seen that 1t is the
purpose of the Radical leaders of the OPP
position to subvert our form of Govern
ment and make out of 1t consolidated
form--a form that is repulsive to every
freeman. And as light dawns upon the
masses Of the Republican party, and they
discover what the leaders of their party are
driving at, the Democracy are cheered with
the hope that In great numbers they will
unite with them in asserting the suprema-
cy Of the Constitution and the indestructi-
bility of the Union. While the Dem
ocrats are thus cheered, they cannot but
sorrow that there is a powerful party that
is working to sap the foundations of Con-
stitutional Liberty in this country. y.g u
