PHILLIPS.

This great expouuder Of Abolition Re.
publicanism made a speech at Brooklyn,
New York, on the 18th inst, "under the
auspices of a Republican organization"
and "the stage was occupied by a large
number Of the leading Republicans Of
Brooklyn" Ia the course of his re-
marks, Mr.. PHILLIPS said !:
awe have crushed South Carolina, and
now the President means to crush Masss.
chusetts. Well, we accent the war. II
he succeeds, he shall write bis name high.
er than that Of Burr or Arnold, for the
treason which they attempted and failed
in, be carried ; but we will write il side
by side with them-the traitor that tried
and failed-if we win"
Simply because President Johnson i,
~endeaving to restore the Uuiou, this In
ferpal, who, in a speech at Cincinnati, I
few years ago, boosted hat he had laboret
nineteen years to destroy the Union, de
nounces him as a traitor! And the abov,
infamous language was applsuded to th'
echo. Again, in speaking Of "whsre par

Senator COwan on Violations of
the Constitution.

In a recent powerful speech in the Sen.
ate, Mr.. Cowan, of Pennsylvania, said:
Mr.. President, l am aware, and have
long been aware, hat it is Of no use here
with certain Senators to appeal to the
Constitution. | know that it is of no use
to appeal to the past construction which
has been put upon that instrument. l
know that there are certain Senators who
think certain things ought to be done,
and 10 matter what barrier stands in the
way, they think they are doing God ser.

war was raging over cne.half Of the Re.
public, when it required all the energies
OF the loyal portion of the Union to sus-
tain that war and to keep soldiers in the
field, have often kept silent, and have
not, as often as l would have done, raised
my voice against these violations of the
Constitution, Now I propose to give a
notice as we'll as the honorable Senator
from Massachusetts,, and it is that from
henceforth | will resist as long as / can,
in my humble way, every measure. no
matter what it may be, that l believe to

this nation, and which to me is sacred as

"sENEx."

MNH A
There is a fellow il Ashland who col.
responds for the Cincinnati Commercial
over the nom de suerre of "senex." 1t
is a fue thing to be a country correspond
ent Of daily paper. 1t is an honorable
and lucrative business. Besides making
the name Of the writer Immortal, he re.

is-never saw him-don't know whether
he is a pure caucasian, on unadultsrated
African, or a hybrid between an Adolf
zionist and a full. blooded Congo. That
he is a correspondent Of the first water,
there is not the shadow of doubt; but don't
tell il in the streets Of Gath.
Under date Of February s, 1865, "Seu-
ex" writes a letter worth, in postal cur
rency, sinty tro censi Whew How
can the Commercial survive such a heavy

"Senex" sgoes and does it" any more,
the Commercial will declare its treasury

The letter is all about our thriving lit.
tie village. We would like to lay it en-

LOYALTY.

MACK, the Washington correspondent
Of the Cincinnati Commercial, thus dis
courseth about Radical Congressman i:
"Wbeu a radical Congressman is beat.
en- in argument, lored in logic, and bad.
ly laid out in constitutional principles,
he raises the cry Of loyalty and beats a
hasty retreat under cover Of it; but when
you come to analyze his loyalty you
will find it composed Of ingredients that
a fews years ago would certainly have
made up rank dislcyalty."
Comment is unnecessary.
