IMPEACHMENT, AND WHO IL HURT
RK TT


The Cincinnati Gazette has a pretty fair
estimate of the Impeachment fdsc0. 1t feels
the humiliation of the result TO Its party,
though we think il does not comprehend
it in its whole length and breadth. 1t says
truly that "the Republican party in the
House of Representatives showed them
selves incapable of dealing with the ques-
ton of impeachment, or of maintaining
their own integrity or dignity" How that
is so, the Gazette explains by saying: "They
presented TO the country the Notifying
spectacle of filibustering against them
selves 10 stave off dilemma in which
they fell through their own divisions, and,
at last, of making vote which is virtually
an Endorsement of all of Johnson's uncon-
stitutional and usurping acts, and is, there
fore, their own condemnation for if john
sons reconstruction acts were not usurpae
ton, on what ground do the acts of Con-
gress stand which overthrow them ?" And
il concludes its article on the subject by
confessiDg that "the Republican party in
the House succeeded in disposing of this
long-pending affair in such a way as to
give johnson triumph, mortify them
selves, and exhibit their incapsbleness 10
the country"
True Very true After worrying the
country for months, burthening the treas
ury with heavy expenditures, breathing
threatenings that attracted the attention OF
the whole world, and accusing the Presi~
dent Of the gravest crimes and INSIDE
meanors-the great party that got up the
impeachment programme has wound the
affair up in a way to give johnson a tri-
umph and exhibit their own incapacity to
the country.-Cincia1dti Enquirer.

fore people. We are indebted to that pa
per Of the 10th inst, for the following pro-
ceedings of that at Richmond on the oh.
They are significant, as showing how the
negro Radical cat is playing in the halls of
the great founders of this government:
"The bill fixing a per diem for officers
and members, coming up, motions we're
made TO make il at sums ranging from So
to $40. Various amendments were proposed
and the colored delegates insisted on the
highest figures, their white associates not
being far behind. The debate took the
widest range and the ordinance was ordered
to be engrossed.
Mr.. Hunnicutt then got in a resolution
lookingto the relief of colored men who have
been discharged from employment by white
Conservatives, because they voted the Radi-
cal ticket at the late elections. The mover
supported the resolution in a strong speech,
threatening, in the event of the failure of
the convention TO meet this issue, TO carry
q memorial TO Congress. The resolution
met with hot opposition from the Conserya-
tive side, but was assiduously pressed by
the Radicals, white snd black. Ii was
maintained by the opposition that the bnsi-
ness of the body was the creation of con-
stitutonal government, not to dispense
benefits or impose restrictions upon the
people to employ whom they pleased. Por-
ter, the Radical leader, moved 20 amend
so az TO provide for the correction of the
grievances in the State constitution by dis
franchising those who shall discharge
colored citizens because of the way they
vote. The debate was warm and showed
