requires special law of Congress to
authorize him to grant an amnesty, and
that law was repealed last December. The
effort of the President, therefore, is really
nothing, but the animus which prompted it
remains the same. 1t is a desperate attempt
to override Congress, and usurp all power
in one hand. The spirit which dictated it
would lead to an autocracy if carried out. 1t
is the maddest and most daring attempt yet
made, and will change many of those hereto
fore opposed to impeachment into its sup
porters. The conversion of public opinion
in favor of this desperate remedy is not rapid,
but, as "Poor Mo- said in the 'Flying
Soud:" "It's slow, but Lud it's so sure |"

''SAvE Me FROM My FRIENDS. 1.-The New
York Herald to-day acts the part of a base
migrate. After having got the Grant CORES
pondence from the President and been petted
by him, it to-day comes out in leader and
calls on him to resign. We publish the article
elsewhere. This is little too much. To
leave the Executive Chamber, and trust to
that ''many-headed monster thing" is feat
which we fear Mr.. Johnson will not dare to
undertake. For once we agree with the
Herald. Let Mr.. Johnson resign, let him
take the flood at its height. Let him try to
be returned to the Executive Chamber, and
all we can say is, that we hope he may enjoy
it better than he does, when he gets there.
But we fear that the advice of his friend
Bennett will not be adopted. We think it
unkind in James Gordon to thus laugh at his
admirer; but the old adage is exemplifed of
"Saving one from his friends" Bennett plays
well the part of Jobs comforter.

Mr.. johnson Planning for the Succession.
THE hint has been thrown out in various quar-
ters that Mr.. Johnson will probably be the
candidate of the Democracy in the next Presi-
dental campaign. The oficious endorsement
of his recent foolish and unpatriotic acts by
the late Democratic Convention of this city
lends pIausibility tothe view. The fact that Mr..
johnson could and would WELD the patronage
of the Government in favor of his own election,
makes him In some respects an available can
didate for the Democracy. 1t is true he has
taken occasion to repeatedly disolaim, in the
most positive manner, any intention of being
a candidate, but that must pass with good
many other things he has said, and failed to
adhere to, in the past. There is no doubt he
would be glad to be candidate, especially if
he had the slightest hope of an election. His
present elevation to the Presidency was not
the work of the people. He is pain
fully conscious of that fact. He knows
that ne has betrayed the party that
elected him, and he would be gratifed beyond
measure with popular endorsement of his
course. He has of late thrown himself into
the hands of Democratic advisers. Jerry
Black, Fernando Wood, Tom Florence and
the same crew of corrupt politicians gene
rally who clustered around Buchanan's
Administration, are now the daily habitu6s
of the White House. The whole power of the
Government is to be felt in controlling the
elections this fall. Should the Democrats
succeed in a few of these, Mr.. Johnson will
have claims on that party which it can
hardly ignore. He is doubtless looking for
the nomination, and it is not at all unlikely
that he may get it. One thing that will tell
In his favor is the scarcity of available candi-
dates in the ranks of the Democracy. Nc
Clellan is the only military man that they
could now think of running, and he would
have far less strength than he had in 1864
Their prominent civilians are not mon OF

The FREE SCHOOLS OF ILLINOIS. The sixth
biennial report of the Superintendent of Public
Instruction of the State of Illinois, for the years
1866 and 1866, has been issued. 1t is, in some
respects, one of the most interesting documents
that has been published by that State. We learn
from it that GA, ,659 scholars were reported in all
OF the common schools of the State for the year
ending September 80, 1866. These were under
the tuition of 6S25 male and lO,454 female
teachers. The number of school-houses re-
ported is 9753 an increase of $50 over the pre-
Vious year. The two-mill school tax yielded
S75O,OOO. This tax for the past eleven years has
amounted to $7493, 794'51; in addition to which
upwards of Sl3,OOO,OOO has been raised for
school purposes by local taxation. The Con-
gressional land grant tor the promotion of agri-
cultural and scientific education gives to the
State of Illinois about five hundred Thousand
acres of land.

and the crop has been safely gathered. Tue

SCHOOLS FOR The IGNoRtNT. We have re-
ceiVed a pamphlet report of the working of
some thirty schools in the District OF Colum-
bia, which are being used for the education
of the ignorant people OF the Dis
trict. They are under the charge of Rev. DR..
E. Turney, and he comes to our public for aid
with the highest recommendation. Under DIR.
Turney's care, without the support of any asso-
ciaton, these schools have grown up and
hOurIshed. Nowhere in the land are they more
needed. The blacks are about to exercise the
right of suffrage, and it win be to these very
scholars that the public will look to see whether
or not this new right will be properly used.
The cause is worthy one, and we hope il will
receive the generous support of our generous
people. The address OF the Doctor is Twenty
second and l streets, Washington. We would
ask, even in view of the many charities now
furnished by our Ieaders:-Who will contri-
bute the means for executing this single days
labor? Who will supply the table of these de-
voted educational missionaries with food for a
single week? Who will provide for the con-
tinued instruction of one of them for a single
year? Who will aid, as occasion demands, in
making provision for the natural necessities of
work so direct and practical in its operation,
so immediate in its results, and so extensive in
the good which is being accomplished?
