WHERE IT BEGAN.-At the Radical
Soldiers Convention, one Wilson of Indi-
ana, said:
ct would bc remembered that the
first fighting of the conflict just ended,
occurred between these two statesat Har-
per's Ferry In order that the humble
individual ut tho White House might
have something to shed tears over, he
suggested three cheers for Kansas and
Virginia" :
Three cheers were given very heartily.
Yet it is doubtful whether many Of the
delegates understood what they cheered
for. The fighting referred to was the
midnight raid of that old robber, traitor
and murderer John Brown, upon Har-
per's Ferry, which resulted in the murder
of the Mayor and others; and this is a
confession that this murderous foray was
the beginning Of our national troubles
as, indeed, it was the elimination of abo-
lition teaching, in open violation of law
and compromise, but it is not often that
radicals will confess it. 1t is, neverthe-
less, true, though we see nothing in It to
s'cheer over"

THE PRESIDENTS POWER TO REMOVE
FROM OFFIcg.-Considerable discussion
has ensued of late, relative TO the right of
the President 10 remove from Office per-
sons appointed ''by aud with the advice
and consent of the Senate" Some have
contended that as the consent of the Sem
ate must be finally had to the appointment,
il is also necessary to effect the removal
before the end of the torn. On this sub
ject, Benton says in his Thirty yerrs'
View:
"In the very first year Of the Constitu-
ton, construction was put upon the in
strumcnt, fof course by those engaged in
framing i'll which enabled the President
TO create as many vacancies as ne pleased.
This was effected by yielding to him the
kingly prerogrative of d;smissing officers
without the formality of trial, or the
consent of the other part Of the appoint
ing power"
The authors Of the Federaiist. (see NJ
II of that work had contended that as tho
consent of the Senate was necessary to the
appointment Of an officer, so the consent
of the same body would be equally neces
sary to his dismissal from Office" sBu
this construction" says Benton, in hi,
Thirty Years, "was oyerruled by the frs
Congress which sat under the Constitution
The power of dismission from Office wa'
abandoned 60 the President alone"
This construction put upon the consti
tuition by Washington aud the first Con
gress, composed in great part by those wh'
framed that instrument, would seem to es
tablsh beyond question the right of th'
President to dismiss offers at will Th,
right has been exercised by every Presi
dent, from the days of Washington to th'
present time, without any opposition; ant
the conceding of that right by those VIII,
framed the Constitution, would seem Il
indicate beyond doubt that it was the in
tention of the anthors of that instrumen
to confer it's. r. CdH.

.An Bosh.o

The Corvallis Gazette-which claims to
be the organ of the Good Templers Of the
State of Oregon; also the official paper
of Benton county, and which, as conse-
quence of "frce" rides up and down the
Willamette, and sundry other douceurs,
has recently become the especial champi-
on OF the Peoples Transportation Com
pany-contains another long and labored
article in favor of the aforementioned
monopoly; wherein it dogmatically de-
clares that all our facts and arguments
against the p. 7. Co, are "aH bosh. -
The people, however, down this way, ir.

Mr.. Freerido. They think that when
they arc charged by the p. T. Co, sl2

SCANDAL IN WASHINGTON HIGH LIFE.
"A year or two ago, says the Washington
correspondent of the Louisville Journal,
there was wedding here in high lifs(so-
called A young but prominent citizen
of Northern State, [supposed to be
Gov. sprague Of Rhode Island]who coun-
ted his fortune by millions, was the happy
bridegroom, and the daughter of a then
Cabinet Minister (Mr. Chase) was the
bride. Rare jewels, worth hundreds Of
thousands Of dollars, were layished on the
fair lady. and such wedding was never
in the land, since Commodore Bartletfs
daughter married the Cuban negro Oviedo
Well there have been many rumors about
the couple just named, and the air has
been thick with scandalous rumors. It was
known the husband was festive cuss, and
that his thousands were spent in riotous
living, wine, cards and other ct ceteras.
But only lately did the wife seem to know
or at least to notice .hc delinquency of her
lord, when it was presented to her in such
q shape that there could be no doubt Of
his his infidelity. And so she has brought
an action for divorce, and will Of course get

THE PACIFIC RAILWAY, The Chicago
Tribune sustains the proposition made by
General Simpson, for an amendment TO the
law under which the Pacific Railway is
now building, viz: "That authority be
given 70 the company to commence at the

He suggests that if the company were au-
thorized to break GROUND at Salt Lake

grading aud bridging could be pushed for

Of the road be thereby greatly expedited.

rack-layers, while Salt Lake City is near.

If therefore, Congress will grant the re
quisite authority, the company will lose

bridges, and manufacture and put down
iron on the track. A few locomotives f0l
