BEN WADE ou aolrN SON.


Tho Correspondence of the Cincinnati
Commercial, lately spent q day with old
Ben. Wade, the Senator from Ohio. Among
other things he gave his opinion about Pre-
sident Johnson: @
Mr. Wade related the following about A.
j.: "Thrce or four days after the assassina-
tion, johnson sent for me, and went to see
him. He met me very cordially, shaRinS
inc with both hands, aud said he was ex'
ceudingly glad to see me, and that tnere
wasn't man in Washington whose ADVICE
he whould as soon have rs mine. tolu
him was very glad and very proud OF that'
We sat down, and he said he wanted to near
my views on public questions and public
policy. Well, said I, the first thing I've got
to say to you is, be warned by the fate OF all
Vice Presidents who have been in your po-
sition. Look at Tyler and Fillmore, and
pray to God every night to save you from
their fate. johnson seemed astonlshed to
think that had any apprehensions OF that
kind, but told him lie couldn't he too care
full, for that he certainly would be tempted
as they were. lie said need have no fears;
that he meant to stand by the men and the
party that elected him. then went on to
advise him what to do. told him the first
thing to do was to order the rial of few
Of the leaders of the Rebellion, before
military commission, aud to hang them
when found guilty. lie said he would do
that very thing, and would commence with
JEFF. Davis. He told me TO hunt up the law
on the question, and agreed to do it if he
would name some one to help me. He nam
ed Ben. Butler. Butler and called on him
a day or two after to find out exactly what
he wanted and We had long talk with
him. He told US he meant to hang the lead.
eEB of the Rebellion right away, as soon as
they could be tried and convicted by amili.
tary commission. As we went away Ben.
Butler said he was delighted with johnson;
that be seemed to bc q regular trump. We
| looked up the law of the case, and in few
! days called on him again. talked to him
! about this very question OF reconstruction.
! He said he was very glad that it was u mat
ter with which he had nothing to do; that
it belonged to Congress exclusively, and he
should let Congress take care of it. We
parted, and soon aitcr | went home with the
assurance from him that he would take no
step not sanctioned by the leaders OF the
Republican patty. heard nothing from
! him until about two months later, when
met John Covode Mt hotel IN Cleveland,
and learned that the President had been N
| close communion W!lh topperhtaus ana
Rebels, and had said to COvode that he
! ijohnson) could DO without the Radicals
bettcr'thun the Radicals could do without
/ bin. About month after went on tU
! Washington for the Winter, and called at
the White House. found the ante.room
full Of Rebels and Copperhead0, and was
soon convinced, from the style in which
was received, that johnson had found friends
and advisers outside Of TIC Republican party.
knew then that he had started On the
downward track, and made up his mind TO
betray the party, and the country, too, if he
could. I tried my best to keep him in, but
! It was uo 90.

ARac 'Erias Of .gSss.. 9sayss.

WAaHNoToE, Nov. lit is ascertained
from an official source that the government
will be ready on the 2!st inst. to proceed
with the trial of jefferson Davis. 1t seems
to be the desire OF the gentlemen on both
sides Of the case, for t. purely legal reason
that Chief Justice Chase shall sit with Judge
Underwood oa the trial. IN view Of this
fact, it is possible that the time Of tria! may
be postponed, in order that arrangements
may be made to secure such q joint accom-
mediation.
SPURIOUS TWENTY FIVE CENT NoTEs.-
During a few days past ~ number OF spurious
twenty five cent notes have been put in cir
culutioD. They are the best executed Of
this denomination yet manufactured, and
are calculated to decieve the most careful
money takers. The bogus money may be
known by the paper being tritl9 thicker
than the genuine, and the green on the
back somewhat lighter. The yignette OF
Fesscnden is ut first g!arce fully as correct
as that in the genuine, but a close scrutiny
shows that it is good wood cut, and not
a steel engraving.

eSewYurk has gone Democratic By some
10000 majority, the majority in the city Of
New-Iork alone being over G0,000! The
State Senate will have Republican nlajori
ty of about 8, but the House will stand 73
Democrats to 55 Republicans, which ":il
give the former the United States Senator
in place of the Hon. Edwin ., Morgan, the
present member.
The Democrats carry New Jersey by
about l2,000 majority. Both branches Of
the Legislature are, of course, of the saDle
complcxiou--the Senate by majority, and
the Assembly by SO.
massachusetts has gone Republican BY
some $1,000 majority, Both branches Of
the Legislature are largely the same way,
aud both strongly against u prohibitory Ii.
9uor law.
In Maryland, of course, the Democrats
were successful. Their majority is very
heavy-for Governor it is probably over
10000. They have been successful in every
county.
In Missouri the Republicans maintain
their ascendancy Of tue Legislature, the
members of which were the only State otli-
GERS chosen. In Noei's Congressional dis.
tlict, made vacant by his death, Gen. Nc.
Cormick, Dem, is elected. In this there is
no change, politically.
In Minnesota, where Governor and Le-
gislaturc were chosen, the Republicans ure
successful by some 1000 majority on the
Governor, and majority of the members OF
both branches OF the Legislature. The nc.
gro suffrage amendment is defeated.
In Wisconsin, where also a Governor and
Legislature were chosen, the Republicans
have been successful in both, electing til,
Governor by some 5000 majority and /
large majority il both branches of the Le
gisaturc.
AS to Kansas, it is not known how it ha
gone. There were so many riders TO fgh
for or against that the actual partizan com
plexion of the Legislature is not yet decided
though the chances are ia favor of the Re
publican party. Both the women aud ne
gro suffrage and the prohibitory liquor Law
amendments are all defeated heavily.
From Michigan and Illinois, where elcc
tions were held for members Of the Lcgis!a
.ure, We have few or no returns.

'aiae Case OF bradley.

WASHINGTON, Nov. ll.--In dismissing
Lawyer Bradley frcm the roll of attorneys
tor his conduct in the Surratt trial, the Chief
Justice addressed to Judge Fisher the fol.
lowing remarks -
| must be permitted 10 remark, in this
connection in relation 10 that trial, that the
power Of the court to protect itself would
have been fell: long before it was, had been
presiding, or the case would have been ad-
journed for the want of power to enlerce its
protection. The department of counsel in
that case, antecedcnt to any discussion be
tween Judge and counsel who is respondent
in the case, was only to be explained by the
excitement incident to the case, and should
have BEEN visited with prompt admoniton.
Language such as "Witness is in my protec-
ton and | y ill teach you how to respect
him, - is not compatible with the protection
presumed 10 be afforded by courl that pre-
sides over case, and that holds the doctrine
tuat witnesses and clients are all in its pro.
lection.
In alluding TO seats being prepared for
spectators, and issuing OF tickets by Judge
Fisher Judge Cartier said -
at is very vicious practice in courts OF
influence OF mob, and do not think that
an audience ought to have been invited to
try that case think that was very con-
siderably out of the way
So when SurrSJt is next tried, there will
be different arrangement in court.
Slr. Bradley to-day resigned his Office of
Corporation Attorney, as he will have to
give up all his law business

- TuG late elections, ever which our
Democratic opponents are now SO jubilant,
do not by any means justify the conclusion
upon which many Of them act, namely, that
the late Democratic victories were owing TO
the increased vote of their party, but simply
to the fact that the Republicans did not
turn out, and left tho elections go b default
The returns, all over, show that the
Democratic vote falls greatly short of las.
years, and that they only succeeded by a
still greater number of Republicans staying
ut home. They are still there, and when
they again come to tic polls our Democratic
friends will find it out.

From vVnshius gtOn.

WASHINGTON, Nov l3.--Various conflict
ing statements have been made in English
and American newspapers as to the purchase,
by the United States, of the Danish West
Indies, and the price to be paid for them.
According to q private letter received from
that quarter, it is to sell the Islands of St.
Thomas and ST. John for a price varying
from s4, 900, 600 to So 600, ,000 in gold. The
exact price is not stated. 1t is further said
that the arrangement or treaty provides that
the sale is dependent on u vote of u majority
of the inhabitants, which, it is supposed,
will be secured, NJ. De Bale, recently Sc
cretary of the Danish Legation, is here,
awaiting the result of the vote.
THE BRADLEY CASE.
1t is stated that as Mr. Brady has been
disuembered from the bar, aud therefore il
no longer counsel for John II. Sarratt, the
eminent New York criminal lawyer, James
T. Brady, is about to voalnteer as counsel
for the defense.
THE WAR DEPARTMENT.
Since the announcement was made that
the President would probably appoint q
successor to Mr.. Stanton this week, n strong
pressure has been brought to bear upon MIR
johnson in favor of several candidates
nection with the War Office. 1t is known
however, that up to this time the President
has not decided finally upon any candidate
and it is probably that none of tue parties
anxiously seeking the place will get it.
MIR. JOHNSON ALARMED.
The President is considerably alarmed ful
fear that Pendlcton and Seymour are taking
possession Of the Democratic party to secur,
Presidential nonliuGtious, without as much
as considering him in the ring. His organ
in this city, to day, closes another frantic
appeal rs follows:
