that the Episcopal Church is the only
refuge from the torments of political

invited comments on the political his

The lmpeachm ent Questien.

The question of impeaching the Pres
ideut is not exciting so much attention
as il did some weeks ago. Though the
managers who have taken the job In
hand are doubtless as busy IS ever, 1t is
pretty generally conceded by 10th par
ties that the result of the coming cleo
tions will settle the question. If the
Radicals should triumph and show an
increase of popular strength, the Presi-
dent will be promptly brought before
the bar of the Senate, and proof or no
proof, he will be convicted and deposed.
II on the other hand the Radicals suf-
fer defeat, and the results show that the
tide is running against them, we shall
hear nothing further about iInpeach-
ment. The voice of the people will be
hooded just in proportion as its tones
are decided and clear. We have faith
that the majority, even of the Northern
people, are becoming weary Of the
and the violence of the Rad
ical leaders, and are now ready to an
nounce their condemnation of policy
which every honest man must repro
bate and deplore.

HIGH wages and the right of suffrage

HIGH wages and the right of suffrage
have been promised by the Radical
leaders to all negroes who come North
from the now unrepresented States.
The object of this movement is twOfald.
In the first place, the votes of these
negroes are to be used for the purpose
at keeping white men in minority in
THE and other States; and i'll the next,
negro labor, being cheaper, can be put
in dirsct competition with the labor Of
white workingmen. 1t has been well
said that "if negro suffrage is estab-
li.hed in the Northern States of the
Union, il will be the most deadly stab
ever Yet given 70 the interests of white
Northern labor; and the laboring man,
who by his voice or his vote, aids in
fastening this curse upon our State, will
sooner or later repent the ignorance
and folly of his conduct"
