A -
The mischief makers, who have so industri-
ously labored to sow dissension between the
President and the party which elected him to
the second Office in the United States, have
taken but little comfort in view of the recent
elections. Here in Portland, a Conservative
Republican," who probably voted for Mr..
Shurtlef q, has written to the argus to explain
that Mr. Stevens was supposed to be "John-
son man." When New Hampshire piled up
her vote for Governor Smyth, the Copperheads
cried aloud with one voice, "The people are
deceived, and think they are supporting the
Administration" The same men are now
busily making believe that the issue is misrep-
resented to-day in Connecticut. To all such
Misrepresentation, General Hawley's plain
talk at Norwich recently, is sufficient an
swer. While speaking. set of written ques-
tions was sent to him, with a request for an
swers, which promptly came as follows:
Q. Do you approve the Presidents veto of
the Freedmen's Bureau bill, and the mes
sage? e -. -
A. No. If had been Senator I should
nave nay voted with those who voted to pass the
bill over the veto. r.O'- 80.
Q. Do you approve the sentiments of Presi-
dent Johnson speech delivered on the 22d of
February? sIs'' - 7Vo-
A. No, lq e. 3. IgQ sll.,oa .tEa... .l7
Q. Do you favor negro suffrage? ll e8l ll
a. am in favor OF giving the right of suf-
rage to the negroes who served in the army,
and who can read. -I..s-..,
Y. Are you an Andrew johnson man?
A. (! am nobody's man but my wife's and I
stand by the flag 49, = lDai y -
This is what the Republican candidate says
to his fellow citizens in Connecticut He
does not approve of President Johnson's veto
message, nor of the 22d February speech; he
is in favor of enfranchising the blacks, with
certain qualifications; finally he does not be-
long to any man, but to party, and to aparty
founded on principles. The Republican par
ty hold the views so clearly set forth in this
brief catechism. That party seeks no quarrel
with the President; has treated him with the
greatest leniency from the beginning: has pa
tiently and respectfully awaited the result of
what the President himself called an @experi-
ment" OF reconstruction. That party now re-
monstrates, respectfully but firmly, AGAINST
some of the Presidents recent utterances, and
claims through its representatives in Congress
the right to voice In the settlement of the
grave national questions now pending. Plain
ly and without reserve, the Republican party
goes before the people with this statement,
and with this claim, and find its vote increas-
ing. 1t is because they believe the President
will listen to the popular voice, that Demo
Gratis are so anxious to misinterpret its utter

The Wheat Crop.

Further reports from the wheat crops in
Ohio and Indiana do not make the pros
pect more encouraging. We cOadense
below the latest detailed reports faom diff
ferent localities. In Huron county the
wheat is reported One-half killed, that on
the clay soil suffering most. In Trumbull
county, on the other hand, the crop looks
promising, fields that seemed winter-killed
are sprouting up, and farmers are happily
disappointed. a similar report comes
from jefferson, Harrison, COrroll and
Tuscarawas counties. A gentleman who
has Travelled through these counties and
observed closely, says that the prospects
of full crop are most encouraging. In
Stark county the crop looks bad. Reports
from Southern Ohio counties may be
summed up as follows: Muskingum, one
fourth an average crop. Fairfield, crop an
entire failure. Pickaway, one-sixth of an
average crop. Fayette, crop badly dam
aged. Highland, yield will hardly equal
the seed sOwn. Clark, crop total failure.
Darke, crop in good condition: Green, crop
almost entirely destroyed. In all parts of
Indiana the crop is reported as a total fail
ure, or the next thing to it.-CleUeIand

The Official GuiIIOtine Beginning
10 Work.

Republicans, who are, and who would
like to be, ofiice-holders, will be interested
in the following Washington special to the
Cincinnati Gazette of Tuesday:
"The work OF removal for non-support
of the Presidents policy has begun, and
large batch of nominations to fill vacancies
made by such removals was sent in to-day.
Some are such as might, under ordinary
circumstances, be confirmed, but the Senate
is not likely to aid the President in break
ing down the Union sentiment of the coun-
try. Among them were those of two Col
lectors OF Internal Revenue in New York,
three in Pennsylvania, one in Ohio. and one
in Indiana, besides that of L. NJ. Clevely to
be Marshal of the Western District OF Penn
sylvania."
1t will, dou btless, become apparent some
of these days to office-holders, that Presi-
dent JOHNSON will send them adrift if they
do not soon give him an effective support.
By-the-way, has our Postmaster yet read
the Presidents first veto?

A Second Daniel Come TO Judgment.
We.flnd the following paragraph 10 the
Columbus special to the Cincinnati Gazette,
which appeared in that paper of yesterday
morning:
| The Democratic members of the Council,
having secured from Judge ThurmanR par
tisan and very weak opinion, in which the
main question is entirely ignored, refused
to recognize Mr.. Comstock as their Presi-
dent.
The wiseacre who,telegraphed the above
to the Gazette shows his own ''partisan-and
very weak" mind. Rarely. in the judg-
ment of many able and unbiased lawyers,
has a more lucid or a more conclusive opln-
ion on a cOntroverted point been given than
that by Judge Thurman in reference to the
election of President of our City CounciL
The Gdzette'S correspondent says the Judge
ignores the main question; but this "sec-
ond Daniel" fails to enlighten the public as
to what this main question is, which, he
says, the Judge ignores. We doubt wheth-
er he. himself can tell what he means by
"the main question: f. " y
At the close of the above special dispatch
to the Gazette, the following sentence oc-
ours by way of a threat:
If there is to be any caving in in the
matter, it will have to be done by them 1.-THE
DemocratsJ; the Union men are firm.
We do not know who prompted the tel-
low to make the above foolish threat; but
we have this to say, that if it is to come to
a question of who is to ''cave in" first, we
trust that the Democrats will be found
equally as firm as the Republican mem
bers.

A DiscOntinuance that Amounted
10 Something.

The order by which Col. FoRNEY's
Washington Chronicle was discontinued at
the State Department amounted to consid-

days ago, introduced into the House reso-
Tuition providing for the appropriation of
nineteen thousand dollars to renew that sub
scription. This subscription is to supply,
as heretofore, the legations and consul
ships abroad with the OF Yonicle. ou
