and then followed his own prostitution, with
its swift and sad termination. Gen. Griffin
belonged to the regular army, and was np.
pointed from OHIO. Though young at the
breaking ont Of the rebellion, his sterling
merits carried him up the scale Of promo
ton, till on the superscdure ofGen. War
rem from the command Of the Fifth Army
Corps in Virginia, he was appointed to tho
place. In that capacity Gen. Griffin bore
IN honorable part in the victorious close Of
the operations around Richmond, and was
duly recognized in the reports Of General
Gmnt.
After tho close Of the war and tho reor.
ganzation of the army, Gen. Griffin was
for some time stationed ut Portland, Me.
lie was finally assigned TO the command Of
tho sub-tistrict embracing the State Of Tex

vigorous speech at Hamilton, Ohio, on

mocracy for their crimes aud infalny, and
said of Andrew Johnson:
"Tell me to-day, if you had jeff. Davis
in the Presidential chnir, or Mr.. Robert T..
Lee, could they have done more for the
rebels in this land than Andrew johnson

could, would like to know in what way
they could have done It. II jeff. Davis
had been President. what would he have
done? Ilo would have returned all the
property to the rebels that they had lost.
Andrew Johnson has done that. If jeff.
Davis had been President he would have
hardened all the rebels that asked him for
pardon. Andrew Johnson has done that
and more too. II jeff. Davis had been
President no would have denounced this
Congress, and called them set of tniiors.
Andrew Johnson has done that. IL jeff.

PREVENTION BETTER THAN CURE.

II is reported from Washington that Gen.
Grant has expressed much fear that there is
trouble ahead. II is easy to sec after an
act takes place what precautionary meas
urcs ough, to have been taken to prevent il,
and so viewing, we may with Proprieiy be
charitable towards Congress for its grea, re-
missness in not deposlng Johnson. He
ought to have been removed after his shame
less exposure Of himself when he took the
oath of Vice President, and still more when
he sold his parions to lewd women. States

ell the villain after he swung around the
circle. When Congress met in July, some
thing akin to stupidity-let us use mildcr
word and call il infamation or ,imidiy-
sent them home, with the important work,
which the good Of the country demanded,
untouched. Ye, the people did not de-
mani that their representatives should do
what we now see ought to have been done !;
and this is their excuse, and because il is
true we should be charitable. But IL was
their business to see what should be done.
They knew that mad bull was loose in a
china shop, and even ordinary statesman
ship should not have been content with
lace thongs. They knew that Johnson had
shown no Trait OF character that could give
confidence to any one, that he cared for
law only when his will was in danger Of
being thwaried. II is about time that the
