Hon. Cave johnson, Postmaster Gene

The Republicans called q meeting at
Portland, Oregon, to ipdorse President
johnson, when Governor Gibbs, who was
present, arose and denounced the meeting
as 8 meeting of Copperhesds. He, with
otbara than rafirad
a secret circular has got into prints
which has been distributed among the
Connecticut Democrats, showing the
towns which are doubtful or Republican
by a small majority, and urging the hard
est kind Of work in the election of Sena-
tors and Representatives. The object that
the Connecticut Democrats are striving
for is not 30 much to make james E. Eng
lish Governor as to elect VIM. E. Eaton
United States Senator.
A Harrisburg correspondent Of the
Pittsburgh Commercial says that there is a
strong feeling in favor of e~lecting Edwin
NJ. Stanton to succeed Edgar Cowan in
the United States Senate. Mr.. Cameron
is also a candidate, but would stand no
chance against the bluff Secretary should
he be a candidate. The endorsement Ct
Mr.. Stanton by the late State Union Con-
vention is significant in this connection.
We see q call in the Toledo Blade for a
"Union Cor invention of the supporters
of the administration" That's q contra
diction in terms. The Copperheads wont
attend, for they are not Union men; the
Republicans won't, because they don't
support johnson. Indeed it is to be earn
estly hoped that there isn't a man in ToIe-
do so stulti6ed as to respond to this call.

upon it. This stove was award d the first premium
at our State Fair in 1S62, 1868 and 1854. During
the last spring and simmer it has been greatly

The Cincinnati COMMERCIAL when il
made up its mind to follow the President
into the arms of the Copperhesds, seems
TO have determined to throw away its re-
~spectability as well as its Republication.
1t has for q fswdays back been filed with
the most false and vicious ISLANDERS of the
the vast majority of Union men, whom it
stigmatizes as Radicals. A day or two
it republished q ysar-old Rrticle abusing
johnson, which it copied from a Copper
head paper and charged on the Radicals.
This ~ungrounded attack on the Union
party has not yet been corrected. Now it
says that the Hobvious intention" of the
Radicals ais by a grand coup detat to
force the impeachment of the President
that his place may be filed by one of the
Radical persuasion" It knows when it
-ays this that it is utter bosh. The Radi-
Gals intend nothing of the sort and the
man or paper who charges them with SO
intending is either knave or fool-or both.

The President has undoubtedly forgot
ten the fact that Attorney General Bates,
now one Of his conspicuous supporters,
and a fierce denouncer of the Radicals,
several years ago gave IN elaborate opin-
ion maintaining the view that colored
freemen are citizens of the United States.
He seems to think it a recent Radical in
vention.

Let US thank Mr.. johnson that his veto

1t more cunningly; but he has chosen to
let US know that it is not this particular
bill THAT has provoked his opposition, but
that any measure whereby Congress shall
attempt to protect the Southern Blacks
against White abuse and oppression
must encounter his determined, deadly
opposition 1t is not to a mode of doing
the thing, but to the thing that Congress
proposes to do, that Mr.. Johnson's main
