What will the President do if Congress
tries to suspend him pending impeachment
Here is the answer his organ gives:
In respect to what the President would
do if approached in either of these direc-
lions we have not thought it worth while to
consider, but naturally suppose that he
would not willingly submit to the degrade
ton of the Executive Office thus, however he
might feel disposed to make any personal
sacrifice to maintain public harmony.-Na-

The political excitement is on the increase
Conservatives are working with much ener-
gy, and everything indicates that there will
be an exciting election, and that full vote
will be poled for delegates and against O.
Convention.
The ticket headed by Marmanduke john
son will be voted for by the Conservatives to
man. The moderate Republicans are
frightened, and it is now certain that they
will join with the Radicals under Hunni-
cult. There will be only two tickets on cleo
ton day.
The above is despatch from Richmond, Va
The moderate Republicans" it SEEMS
are going with the Radicals. That is very
good The =" Conservatives" or traitors will
poll q full vote against Convention. -
They will do the same thing in this State,
but they win be voted down, and again saw
ed from themselves.

Voting..-Tlckets.

1t will be well to bear in mind that under
the supplemental act Of March 2, 1867,
"those voting in favor of Convention shall
have written or printed on the ballots by
which they vote for delegates, the words,
Cora Convention" and those voting against
such a Convention shall have written or
printed on such ballots the words. Against
a Convention" So the voter is to have but
one ticket. On one side must be the name
or names of the candidates, and on the other
side the words above given, " For a Conven-
tion," and Against Convention" 1t is
we'll to be careful. 1t will not tlo to have
on the ticket the word C0nreRtiop, or the
words No ConrentiOn, as such vote might
not be counted. The law will no dOabt be
adhered to strictly.
1t is thought the election will take place
about the Goth of November. 1t may be q
few days later.
The attention of our Republican friends
is called to these facts.
We are. prepared to print tickets for can
didates with the words, " For Convention
on the back of them. They will be furnish
ed at So per thousand. They could be affor-
ded for less money, but for the fact that
printing on both sides necessitates what is
called double press-work, and the postage
must be prepaid. Send in your orders at
once with the cash, and the tickets will be
forwarded postage paid. We have
a device to put on the tickets, by which
they will be known at once as Republican.

the St. Louis Democrat from which we quote
as follows:

Rebels are again secretly, rs well as more
openly, in Maryland, marshaling their forces
