How TO CLEAN RIBBoNs In these
hard times all economical hints are
acceptable. The following recipe has
stood the test of experiment. Wet the
ribbon i'll alcohol and fasten one end
of it to something firm; hold the other
in your hand, keeping the ribbon out
straight and smooth; rub it with a
piece of CASTLE soap until it looks de-
cidedly soapy, then rub with sponge,
or, if much soiled, with the back of a
knife, keeping the ribbon dripping
wet with alcohol. When you have
exhausted your patience and think it
must be clear, rinse thoroughly in al
cohol, fold between cloths, and iron
with hot iron Don't wiring the rib
bon; if you do you will get ereases in
it that you cannot smooth out.

'TIAO PEesIdemI's DemumcIaliOm of
ahtA ERadical Traitors

In his speech In Washington yesterday,
President johnson characterized the Radi-
Gals IN Congress as the leaders of a second
rebellion, and denounced Thaddeus Stevens,
Wendell Phillips and Charles Summer as
traitors.
All of which Is true. jeff. Davis, John
G. Breckenridge and Robert Toombs were
not less leaders of Southern rebellion dur
ing the memorable Congressional session OF
lS6l-2 than the Radicals In Congress are
leaders of Northern rebellion at this
present time. As the Southern leaders
were striving to break up the Union then,
so are these Northern leaders striving to
break 1t up now.
The Southern rebellion gained head In
1862 because the leaders OF it were not
promptly arrested and put upon their trial
for treason. President johnson will see to
it that this Northern rebellion shall not
gain head from similar remissness of duty
on the part of the Executive Department
of the Government.
do not hesitate to declare that 1t Is the
solemn duty of the President to follow his
words by deeds. We donOt hesitate to de-
clare that 1t Is the solemn duty OF the Pres
ident to command the arrest OF Thaddeus
Stevens, Wendell Phillips, Charles Summer,
and their confederates In Congress and all
over the country, for the crime of treason.
In no other way can this Northern rebel
lion be promptly quelled and helpublic
quiet restored.
And If the rump Congress shall not speed
ily abandon its seditious, revolutionary and
lawless practlces-if it shall persist In ex-
Guiding the representatives of eleven States
from their rightful seats, and in exercising
the powers of the Congress of the United
States-we do not hesitate to declare that
it will become the solemn duty of President
johnson to constitute himself the Cromwell
of the time and dissolve the rump by milf
tary power. .N
Desperate diseases demand desperate
remedies. President johnson characterizes
the Radicals in Congress as the leaders of
second rebellion, and denounces certain
persons as traitors. If he speak truly, he
is confronted by desperate disease In the
body polite. If he be true man and a
Just magistrate, he will speedily apply the
sole effective remedy in so desperate case.
II he would have the respect, confidence,
love and support of the people-if he would
sustain himself--if he would avert another
civil war--if he would save the Republic
he must strike down the traitors at one ter
rible blow; he must crush the second re-
bellion under the heel of his power.-Cht-
cd1O Times.

The card of Messrs. Willoughby & Beck
er, manufacturers and wholesale dealers in
all kinds of Domestic Cigars, at No. lO2
South Public lane, appears in our paper
this morning. These cigars are retailed in
this city by Messrs. Huston & Gardner, next
door to the Postoffice, and at the Eagle
Drugstore Of Messrs. A. Schueller & Co.
To all who are seeking for choice cigars
of the first quality, whether for their own
use, or for retail, we can cheerfully recon-
mend the brand of Messrs. Willoughby &
Becker. From samples we have tried, we
are convinced that they cannot be easily
equaled by any other domestic cigars, and
are superior to many of the imported
brands. Call for these cigars, If you want
good and cheap smoking. r..y

Rnther NInd.

The Detroit Advertiser and Tribune (Radi-
cali, we should think from the following
comments, is rather mad over the Presi-
dents veto:
THE purport of the message is plain. 1t
is defiance to Congress. 1t is defiance OF the
popular will expressed through that body.
1t seeks an occasion for quarrel and makes
the points of dissent so broad that only
baseness and treachery can bridge over The
chasm. The President turns his back upon
the men who made him, and throws him
self into the arms of the South where he
came from. The nod of the Southern aris-
tocrat has turned the head of his violent de-
nouncer. There is no doubling that he
means worse than he says. We are sold Ott,
dirt cheap, and thrill of conscious power
will penetrate every corner of rebeldom.

Arrest of burglars.

Some time since, a daring burglary
was committed in the store of Linton &
Murdock at Clarksville, Clinton county.
Two notorious scoundrels, Bill Stevenson
and Frank Rivers, alias Wilmer, who have
each served two years terms in the Peni-
tentiary, were, on Saturday morning, ar
rested at Cincinnati on well grounded
suspicion of having been concerned in the
Clarksvile burglary. On searching the
house where these villains had their head
quarters, the officers found full sets Of all
kinds OF burglarious tools, powder, ETC.,
United States bonds, money, notes, etc., all
of which has been identified as stolen
property. The two are regarded as the
leaders of safe-blowers in the State. r

should be more extreme" over the cir
cumstance that the leaders of the Re-
publican party had abandoned their plat
form of 1854 and were making the de-
Iiberate attempt to overthrow-the funda-

is this circumstance that induced the Pres

in their infamous work. And the people
will thank him for having done them this

The President in his serenade response
on Thursday evening, when speaking Of
the attacks of Chas. Sumner and Thad.
Stevens, uses these words-"Willing to
wound, but afraid to strike.n This terse
sentence shows that the attacks of those
two gentlemen wounded Mr.. johnson
deeply, and that that wound is unhealed.
1t was no light charge when Senator de-
clared the President to be a hypOcrite; it
was shameful thing in a Representative
to say that the President is traitor; and
that, reduced to words, was exactly
what Sumner and Stevens said.
Mr.. johnson stood up in the Senate, fear
less and defiant, when every other South
ern Senator rode upon the wave of seces-
sion. Mr.. Johnson, day and night, carried
his life In his hand, amid traitors and as
sassins, when the gentlemen who SANDER
ed him were out of harms way. And is
it not natural he should feel that such
ISLANDERS are as wicked, even, as the assas-

That part Of the report which relates to

City Council. e7''i"r
The Inspector of the Southern District
reported that since the last meeting of the
Board, he had examined 151 premises, of
which he had found 50in sanitary condi-

"EarthquaIxe'' Among the Radis
...-..H. nsRnd.

On the first page of our paper this morn
ing may be found the concluding portion
of speech made by President johnson on
the 22d instant. The radicals, who have
been disregarding all appeals for full
restoration of the Union, who have aimed
to hold the Southern States as subjugated
provinces, who have refused them represen-
tation in Congress, who pile up taxes against
them and give them no voice or participa-
tion in legislation, who are seeking to fast
en- upon the country centralized despo-
tism, and who are willing to tamper with
the Constitution, making patchwork" OF
it to subserve their party purposes, have at
last aroused the President to full, open
and hostile stand against them. He has
planted himself on constitutional ground.
He tells them of their meanness; he defies
their threats, and will stand by the people
and their liberties despite of party drill.
Read his scathing rebuke-it is terse and to
the point. We are sure that those who
were charmed with his recent "veto" will
enjoy the brief telegraphic speech this
morning. There are some inaccuracies in
telegraphing, but they are so apparent the
reader Will readily see them.-LouisUille

Robbers Thwartcd ByTa f-ecOmOtIve.
Proximity to q Locomotive In motion is
generally considered rather dangerous
position; but that this Is not always the
case is illustrated by the following incie
dent which occurred in the city on Satur-
day night. About Twelve o'clock that
>nighttwo citizens, deaIeein "the staff Of
life" and provider of the motive power to
the cars on the street railroad, were riding
homeward on High street, going north in a
light spring wagon. Having reached the
railroad crossings near the depot, three
men rushed from the darkness, suddenly
and unexpectedly, upon them. Two seized
their horse and held him fast, while the
third demanded their money. One of the
gentlemen in the buggy raising himself to
his full height, with threatening aspect,
swore he would shoot the rascals if they
did not instantly decamp.
At that momentous juncture, small 10
conotve with three or four.empty ears at
.tached, came putting and blowing within a
few feet of the spot where apparently a
bloody tragedy was about to be enacted
The horse as natural consequence became
frightened and restive, and the three out
laws equally alarmed at the presence lofthe
, locomotive andthe llghtttat shore fromit,
vanished into the darkness as suddenly as
they had few moments before emerged
from IT. "For Gods sike drive on" ex-
claimed one Of the men in the buggy to the
other who held the reins and the whip
Onward did they drivein the direction ofthe
North pole, galloping at rate far too rapid
for any bandit, though ever so swift OF foot,

President JOhusOa DOn't Propose
-iH.'r 10 Wait ON Time.

The ZahesuiHe Courier is shocked because
of the want of dignity the President dis
played in his 22d Of February speech, and
processes to believe that ''a man filling that
high and honorable position (the Presi-
dency) can safely trust to time to vindicate
the justice and uprightness of his acts"
The President don't propose to wait on
time; he desires the people " to vindicate
the business and uprightness of his acts, " by
eIectinga Congress that will sustain them.
He don't want another Congress sent up to
Washington that can be used just as the
vindctiveness of STEVENS and SUMNER
shall dictate. That's the meaning of his
speech. The jugglers, therefore, who were
flattering themselves with the ability of
mlling the President into tancied security
and re-electing Radical Congress, have
been most successfully fOiled. POLITICAL
thimble-riggers can, therefore, make up
their minds to retire into private life. The
people will say to them, at the instance Of
President JOHNSON, "Never more be officer
