IMPEACHMENT. Tho Washington
correspondent Of the New York Er-
press, few days ago, in referring to
this question, said
"Tho Impeachment investigation
was very significant. 1t is well known
here that they have signally failed
thus far to obtain any reliable evidence
of official misconduct on the part Of
the President. The testimony they
have taken is nothing more than hear
say, as TO what Mr.. Johnson did be-
fore he was even nominated for the
Vice Presidency. Baker and Jack
Hamilton say that be wrote letter
10 Jefferson Davis, Offering TO Join the
Coniederacy upon condition that he
should be made Secretary Of War.
This, ] believe, was sworn to by Ba-
ker, but when called upon for the let
ter, he said he thought it could be
found. The fact that the Committee
have been going along on this sort OF
evidence, shows how badly Off they
were for money-and hence the ne
cessity forthe 100000 voted to-day.
| imagine, however, it will hardly be
sufficient to purchase another Como
yer, especially in view Of the situation
into which that unfortunate individual
has been placed, in consequence Of his
offences. What they want is testimo-
ny against President Johnson, not Mr..
johnson, and they will have it, if it
takes the entire contingent fund Of
the House TO obtain IT, Money is no
object, especially as it comes from the
tax ridden people. Witnesses are in
demand, and must be hunted up.

Whcrc does .uufaffOism most
Prevail

Though negro slavery has ceased TO
exist in the United States, many pco.
pie are grossly deceived rs to many
facts connected herewith. For in
stance, we lately heard a mongrel Re.
publican leader charge mulattoism or
miscegcnation upon the South. The
following table, taken from the census
reports, shows the ratio of mulattoes
toone hundred negroes in each State

LIBERAL.-Rev Charles Avery, of
Pittsburg, died last week, and left one
hundred and fifty thousand dollars to
the Oberlin, Ohio, College, "for the ell
ovation of the colored people Of the
United States and Canada" This is
an institution at which whites and
blacks intermarry, eat, sleep and live
together. Had he stated in his win
that this sum was to be used to de-
grade the whites, he would have stat
ed a probability; but to elevate the
blacks, is an impossibility. The testi-
mony and history Of thousands Of
years is against him.

The Radical Disuuionists in the
Western States are trying to gettheir
Legislatures to pass acts prohibiting
Texas droyers from driving cattle into
those States, in order to keep beef up
TO the present enormous prices. Fat
cattle can be bought in Texas and
drove to Illinois and sold for thirty
per cent. less than the ruling price. 1t
is a great pity that "loyalists' cannot
environ themselves with tariffs, en-
bargoes and negroes, against the out
side barbarians.

FR1GHTFUL FIX ron FENToN.-In
the case Of Captain George Olney, who
is alleged 20 have taken his steamer
by force md stratagem from Norfolk,
Virginia, Governor Fenton. upon a
requisition from Governor Pierpont,
Of Virginia, issued a warrant for Oh
ney's arrest. When the matter came
before Judge Leonard, in the Supreme
Court Chambers, in this city, yester-
day Judge Dean,in behalf Of Mr.. O.nev.
claimed that, ,inasmuch as Virginia was
not recognized as State by Congress,
her appointed Governor had no status
to issue a requisition and the Governor
of loyal State could not issue his
warrant founded upon such requisi-
ton and as the Court desired TO have
full argument on the subject, the
case was adjourned TO 10 o'clock this
morning, Ii a further adjournment
should be had till Monday, there will
be time to get an answer from Gov
ernor Feuton TO the following: Does
he Governor Fenton) believe that
Virginia is a State il the Union. and
Governor Picrpont the legal Governor
thereof Z If he don't, his prompt obe-
dicnce 10 Pierpont's requisition bellies
his position; if he does, he puts in per,
il his loyal standing in the loyal
party which elected him 'luyal Gov

JUsr LIKE THEM-Tbe knavery of
the "loyal" leaders cannot be better
illustrated than by the fact that while
they are seeking 10 enfranchise the
negroes in the South, they refuse them
the same rights in Ohioand Now York.
The Legislatures of both these States.
by large majorities, last week, refused
10 strike the word "white' out of their
Constitution. While they thus vote
at home, they nevertheless call upon
their Rump brethren at Washington
TO push on the good work in the
South. They thus want their neigh
bors to accept that which they refuse.
This may be Hoyalty," but it does not
seem like honesty. The Golden Rule
has been lost-traded OIL for "loyaltv.8 -

DEFEATED.-The accursed embargo,
entitled tariff by loyalists and pub
lie robbers, was gloriously defeated
in the Rump at Washington, on Fri
day last, through the joint effort Of
twenty-seven western loyalists and
the Democrats. This viii cause a tre-
mendous howl, laden with goldfish
scent, to come up from the hills of OK
tra-loyal New England-the land Of
the oppressor and the brave-oh. The
people Of the United States have paid
tribute enough to the New England
States--in fsh-bounties, tariffs and
frauds--to cancel the whole National
debt; and yet they cry for more.

seldom read my sticks, and had no outs" or
