GEN. BUTLER PLEDGED To IMPEACH THE
PRESIDENT. the Republican Convention of
the Fifth Massachusetts, district, the conven-
tion which unanimously nominated Gen. But
ler for Congress. DR.. George b. Loring was
present, and made speech from which the
following is an extract:
Now that the crisis has come, now that the
President declares that there is o body of men
"called Congress, hanging on the verge of the
government, now that he is evidently bent on
revolutionary, business, the man who is put in
nomination here to-day is pledged to impeach
this President before the people of the great
Northwest. Tremendous cheering.] And I
tell you, gentlemen, he will never leave that
impeachment until Andrew johnson is called
to answer at the bar of the American people.
lApplause.J Now you will understand me
when say that you have to-day assumed an
immense responsibility, and it devolves upon
you to stand by your leader in the great crisis
OF this country; to stand by him in the busi-
ness which, it almost seems, God has given
him to do. tell you, my friends, that the NOM
inatiOn of a member of Congress in this day is
no boys play, no holiday pastime 1t is an an
nouncement to the American people Of thei1
right and power to defend their government
and constitution at the ballot box as their sons
defended it on the battlefelds and in the
swamps at the South congratulate you thai
you have put yourselves in this position, thai
you have assumed the right to say that the
government OF these United States shall bt
sustained in season and out of season, through
all trial and trOubless / am sure that the voice
of this old district, which has gone up in time
past SO strong and well for liberty, will no
quail now. am sure that the sentiments her,
proclaimed in the past by Nathan Dane will b.
your doctrine now and forever. [Vpplause.l
believe that the time has come when the prin
ciples OF government enunciated in Masachu
setts, fought for and defended for the Ia st fou
years, have got to become the principles of tn

To THE EDlfoR OF TnE PpEss:
The Grand Lodge l. O. of g. r., is now in
session in this place. The attendance is large:
nv every section OF the State being represented
The reports of the Grand Officers show con-
tinued prosperity and great increase OF mem-
Dershsp during the past six months The MEM
Ders OF lodges Instituted in that period being
twenty eight, and the membership now num-
sag hundred reported six months agol This vast
addition tofbe ranks of pledged abstainers in
the State is in itself no insignificant work, and
IN connection with the organized effort put
forth in almost every town in the State through
the agency of subordinate lodges, must have q
powerful influence on the sobriety and coed
morals of the State. ef 4 +, aaaf ~,
The officers recommend that frequent public
temperance meetings be held in every section
of the State with the special objects of urging
the adoption of the pledge upon the youth Of
the State and the creation of a public senti-
ment that shall demand the execution of a Pro-
hibitory Law. The question is freely asked
what would be thought of the ptt.ck and hon
esty ofour officials, lift were deemed necessary,
by any considerable number of our citizens to
hold meetings with the special purpose of de-
nadnding of them the enforcement of laws
against thieves and burglars? Why should
the Maine La'o,-the execution of which has
everywhere resulted in blessings to the State
be an exception in this particular? Another
question OF Importance to be brought before the
session, is the education of the children of the
state in Temperance principles. To this end
it will probably be attempted to organize Juv-
emile Temperance Societies, such as, in the
past, have exerted such an influence for good
throughout the country. Teachers Of our COM
mon schools and superintendents and teachers
OF Sabbath schools will probably be requested
to urge the children in their charge to sign a
pledge Of abstinence from all intoxicating liq-
uors. This evening social meeting of mem-
bers of the order will be held when reports will
be made from the various subordinate lodges
in the State. The session will continue through
tomorrow and public meeting will be held
tomorrow evening O.C.
