TIE WESTERN UNION TELEoaArH Mos,opoLY.-
The officlal statement Of the Western Union
Telegraph Company shows that the gross
rocc'pts for tho single month Of November
reached Eve hundred and seventy-one thousand
dollars, the net earnings out Of which amounted
to nearly quarter Of million. These enor-
nous profits are secured by the heavy rates
charged upon messages the company having
shut out competition by buying up all opposing
lines. The press, which suffers more than pri-
vate individuals through this monopoly, will
probably before long construct independent
telegraph lines for newspaper business, by
which saving Of fifty TO scventy-ivc per cent
In the cost Of reports can be made. These lines
will be opened fer the transaction Of private
business as far as practicable, and az they will
convey messages at the lowest possible rates,
they will destroy the present monopoly and
insure better attention and more reasonable
charges to the public.

Absurd Idens of the lmpcachsueat Movement.
The European papers seom to be altogether
in the dark upon The question Of President
Johnson's impeachment The London Tines
in particular affects to be grievously distressed
lest the impeachment SHOULD dcmolish the con-
stitution and government OF the United Statos
Some newspapers at home, who ought to trke
more intelligent view Of the subject, talk
pretty much in the same absurd way. Now,
the fact Of the matter !. that there will be very
little trouble about it, and it will not turn the
country from the even tenor Of its way. The
President, we may assume, will be impeaehed
and removed General Grant and Admiral
Tarragut will probably be elected after short
lapse of time to the Offices of President and
vice President, Mr.. johnson will soon be for
gotten, and the affairs Of the country will 20
on in their accustomed channels, prospecting
and to prosper.
The English press foresaw in the late rebel.
lion the downfall Of our government and insti.
tutions, because, perhaps, the wish was father
TO the thought; and they were greatly aston
ished to And that we put down the rebellion
and preserved the government But they will
DO more astonished at the result OF this inn
parchment business; for II will not in the least
affect or imperil our institutions. III curious
and entirely novel episode Ia our history, IL is
true, though not without precedent in France
and England but it will come, 90 aud be for.
gotten without impeding the prosperity Of the
country.

ssRcvoIutions Never Go Bnckwards''- Presi-
dent Johnson's Impeachment Inevitable
The Plan. .& H.
The revolution which was precipitated upon
the country by the Southern rebellion of 1851
Is not yet ended. The struggle is still going
Oh with the old Southern oligarchy and their
Northern democratic sympathizers, defeated in
the war, and it will be carried through. The
great Union movement Of the war will run its
course. The great issues settled by the war
viii be es!a est. he'd il The government They
arc under momentum which cannot be
resis,ed All impediments which block the
way will be removed. II is the law Of all
revolutions. This is only history repeating
itseli. SO II Is that no preordained event in
human affairs is more certain to come to pass
than the impeachment and removal Of Presi-
dent johnson from Office. This thing will be
done because II has become q necessity to the
consummaiion OF this revolution. Congress
has no alternative when the suspension OF Its
authority over the rebel States for two years
yet TO como is morally certain under President
Johnson.
We ore just now in the position Of England
after the war between the Parliament and
King Charles the First, when, from his refuge
among the Scots, he was delivered MP TO the
Parliament for trial. There were at that time
In the Parliamentary cause the independents
and the Presbyterans, corresponding with our
radicals and conserv tives of the present day.
We know, however, that Cromwell and his
radicals achieved their grand design in tho
condemnation and beheading Of the King, and
thai the Commonwealth was next established.
This Is one parallel to our present situation;
and there is another equally striking in the
history of the great French revolution. SO
far as his continuance in Office il concerned
the present position Of Mr.. Johnson is hardl
better than was that OF Louis XVI, when in
ms attempted escape from the republican
authorities he was captured at Varennes, one
hundred and fifty miles from Paris, and brought
BACK 10 trial, to condemnation, and at last to
The guillotne, after some stormy debates be-
tween the Jacobins and Grondists, the radicals
and conservatives Of the convention. As Il
was with that convention 20 Il Is now with
Congress-the radicals hold II, and The con-
