Impeachment Of the Rresident and
Apother Civil War.

!. That the -hot,haaded- Radicals are
looking to another civil war, and delib'
rerately plotting measures to bring it on,
10 a fact which is daily leaking out
through the months Of their unwary CO.
adjutors 1t is leading part of their
plan to impeach the President, at the
next session. of Congress, in the expecta-
tion that he will resist being put out of
Office by sueh-a Ramp and that, in this
manner, the conflict will be precipitated
Senator Wilson has declared it as his
opinion .'that the President pOald be I'M
peached meet wiHter, unless change took
place this FAM Gerrett Smith has re.
Gently published letter in which, with
characteristic frankRess and candor, he
expresses his opinion that another civil
war is probably necessary, and is close
upon US W. make ths following ex-
tract: -. 60 ..-'----.-r - -
The rar ,cM break out again If suffrage
is ,CithheM from the black man. 1t will,
i'm that case break out in revenge upon
the loyal whites of the South, and, hut
too. probably, on much broader, if not
indeed on a national scale ....
In all probability our nation 'rill learn no
more of Righteousness antil she hare d,7fted
onto another breaking up. In all probability
she must reach another bloody catastrophe
before her sunken soul shall feel another
apipard impulse.
In closing this letter, let me say that !
would not underrate the present Con-
gress. Iu the main it is composed OF
men who are neither ignorant of the
right nor Indifferent to il. Unhappily
thew were not sufficiently resolute to
follow up their convictions and insist on
harvesting the fruits of our dear bought
victory. Alas, that Congress has, but
too probably, left IL impossible for these
Graits erer 10 DC harvested. Alas, that its
mistakes have, but too probably, render
ed vain all this expenditure Of blood and
treasure The nation must pass through
another season of sorro,C ere it shall reach
it's season of Joy Seed must again be soun
in tears and blood ere this nation shall
reap its harvest Of salvation.
Negro suffrage at whatever cost"
is the legend which the Radicals are
everywhere inscribing upon their party
banners Speaker Colfax, in his late
speech in Chicago, stated it to be the
determination of the Republican party
that the South shall be kept out until
until they adopt the pending con-
stitutional amendment, and Senator
Trun6ull, in his speech at the same
meeting, said, without attempting to
mince the matter, that negro suffrage is
the aim and substance Of the amend
ment. The. chief obstacle in their way
is not the Constitution-for which they
care nothing--but. President Johnson,
whom they mean to impeach, and get
out of the way; by peaceable means if
they can, but by force If they find it
necessary. That reverend old brulser
and blackguard, Parson Brownlow, has
lately sounded the tocsin. of new civil
War in a speech at Knoxville. The fol-
lowing is from Knoxville telegram. to
the Radical Chicago Tribune. -.-
Governor Brownlow spoke here to day
He said the rebellion headed by Andrew
johnson would share the same fate as
that headed by JEFF Davis. If attempt
ed, million of loyal s,cords ,Oould leap
from their scabbdrds, and millions Of bGyo-
nets surround the Capitol, and s,oeep the
usurper and traitor from the Erecutire
Mansion,
The Rochester Democrat also grows
blood thirsty, and in recent issue, cries
havoc as follows:
Ifby reason Of advantage in position, the
opposition insists in holding out, THEN II
MUST BE, REDUCED TO A TRIAL OF MAIN
STRENGTH, AND THE WEAKER POWER MUST
GO TO THE WALL All LAST. We have no
fears of the result, but regret THE WASTE
OF LIFE AND TREASURE, the humiliation
ir the eyes of foreign nations, and the
impediments to the country's progress
in power aud prosperity which the ex-
ercise of little common sense on tho
part of the minority might prevent.
Thus while patriotic citizens of the
North aud the South are assembling at
Philadelphia for the re establishment OF
peace, prosperity, and good will, these
furious and malignant Radicals-tGese
bioodhounds of civil wsr-sre slipping
from the collar put upon them by the
Constitution, and opening in foil cry
unon tho President and the Union
