The Ne,o York Tribune accuses President
JOHNSON and Attorney General STANBERY
of being guilty of ''high crimes. misde-
meanors, and treason" for removing DAN
SICKLEs.
The war cry is raised by all the Radical
savages of the country.
Black-Hawk GREELEY, Flat-head STAN
TON, Spoon-Mouth BUTLER, and the chiefs
generally, are marshalling their savage
hosts to assail the authorities at Washing
ton, depose the Executive, take forcible
control. of the Government, disfranchise
all who differ with them politically, create
a Civil War, and establish Military Des-
potism upon the ruins of the Republic.
The signs of the times are ominous indeed.
Letthe friends of peace and liberty vote
the party of which they are the contron-
ing spirits out of power. sas gelas

The "Last of Pea Tfme'' with the
Radicals.

The widespread disaffection in the ranks
of the Negro Suffrage party, and the hosts
of good men and true patriots who have
decided,to support THURMAN, has so scared
the leaders that fears were entertained that,
beyond their own vote, HAYES and Negro
Suffrage wouldiget none. To counteract
this, the Lancaster Gazette has procured the
certificate of couple of worthies-if in
deed they be not men of straw-calling
themselves GEORGE RABBITS and g. H.
KUTz, who repudiate the idea that they
will abandon the Negro and vote for THUR
MAN. If these fellows stick to what they say
they are white men and are not idiots or
insane, and if they do vote, and vote for
Negro Suffrage and for HAYES, then HAYES
and Negro Suffrage will get two votes, if
not more, in Fairfield county, which may
prevent the county from being a unit, as it
ought to be, for THURMAN and for while
men ruling Ohio. .l.r. r.,..s-
Seriously, if indeed any one can be seri-
Gus while so broad a farce is being played,
the Negro Suffrage party must be hard
pushed, indeed, when they require pub
lished pledges from their own men, that
they will not abandon their party, in this,
the hour OF its sore travail. When such
pledges are required, it must be about the
last of pea time" with them.

All the AbiIitv.

1t has been toastingly claimed by Re-
publican editors and politicians that
they have here in Ohio all the brains
and ability and yet they have to call
on stumpers in Illinois, Indiana, Penn
sylvanfa, Kentucky and other States, to
assist them in the effort to maintain a
majority in State where they last year
had forty thousand majority. This effect
ually disposes of their arrogant claim to all
the brains and ability in the State. AS yet
the Democracy ofthe State have not called
for outside assistance, having confidence in
the ability of their champions to do ample
Justice to the White Mans Cause.

A Greasy Mechanic TO LegisIate
.s. slfa5;fOr the State of Ohio.

To the Editor of the Ohio Statesman:
SIR /: In copy of the Columbus Journal
of the 2eth inst, noticed a communication
from Delaware, of which the following is a
copy:
"The hugest joke of the season here is
that crazy nincompoop, named Willis, has
| offered his services as candidate for Rep
| resentative, in card in the Cincinnati En-
| quirer, Columbus STATESMAN and the Her
aid, (not the N. Y. Herdld.) and l think he
has made himself believe that he can be
elected. He, not being competent to get
up platform to stand on (al-
though he is seeond-rate carpen-
ter,) procured an Irishman who has talent
enough for Democratic lawyer, tn steal
all the lumber from Thurman & Co.'s She
bang, and make him one which he is now
carrying around in his pocket and display
ing on all occasions, while the Democracy
are egging him OH, thinking that perhaps
here will be few Union men deceived by
him. and the Democracy keep good sized
Doctor following him around for the pur-
pose of neutralizing any bad effects which
might occur, should he convert any 1ceaE
Democrat over to his faith. There is no
danger of his receiving any votes outside
of his family circle. ea4..,E - .f.z-ra
Now, Mr.. Editor, think the person that
wrote the above has shown himself be-
meath the dignity of gentleman, as GER
tainly beneath the dignity of the nominee
of the great Republican Party of this
county for their suffrages to represent them
in the Ohio Legislature. think when a
person has to stoop so low as to use such
billingsgate in order to gain votes he is
very much concerned about his election.
"a carpenter" forsooth! think he will
find even second-rate carpenter as COM
petent to get upfa platform as third-rate
editor, who said in speech recently that
he would as soon go to the polls arm in arm
with negro as with white man. every
man to his taste,'' however! L think he
will find, if he wishes to be elected, he had
better not write slanderous reports against
mechanics and laboring men, as they are
the bone and sinew of this coun-
try. We would caution the gentle-
man who is now considered by his
party, an ddUent,rer in the country and in
politics, and who aspires to an Office which
he hopes may do honor to him, instead of
he to the office, to beware how he writes in
the future, lest he may find some political
breakers in his path, in the shape of thou
sand or two greasy mechanics. We hope
that if ''Scrub'' has anything to say, that
may not prevent him from Civ
ing his real name. -7.a'- asaa -E-a.h

NaIion,aPeriL.

Why all this cry of War from the Radi-
Gals? President JOHNSON is moving things
along quietly, peacefully and prosperous
1y. Yet the Radicals are crying War, War,
War. The President is denounced aud ac-
cused of treason for simply doing his duty.
The Reconstruction act, according to
THAD. STEVENS, is unconstitutional, and
yet the Radicals claim the President is
guilty of treason if he refuses to execute
it through irresponsible and despisable
partizan demagogues. .. e.,-
The President is displaying wisdom by
his course and will be sustained.
Let the Radicals howl and assail him if
they dare.

What the Working Men of the
'i 1l Country Think

The National Convention of the working
men of the country, recently held at Chica-
go, adopted the following resolution.
RESOLVED, That it is the duty of Cong
to subject the Federal securities to taxa
tion equal in amount to that paid by all
other property for the support of Govern
ment, State and National; and that we will
not cease our efforts until this, as every
other species of legislation which discrimi-
mates in favor of one class as against anoth-
er, shall be abolished.
These working men begin to feel that the
taxes they are forced to pay are oppressive
ly high, in consequence of the wealth in
vested in Government bonds escaping tax
alton. Taxes like the dews of Heaven
should fall alike upon the just and the un-
just, an6 there is no reason why the labor
of the country is taxed, and the wealth of
the country escape. --

You Can't DO It-Itis Not COnstftu-
tiOnal. .-7....l


1s There is a certain class of people of the
Radical and Republican persuasion, who,
ii you talk to them of the justice of taxing
the capital invested in overnment securi-
ties, claim, that the Constitution and the
Courts interpose and protect them against
taxation. When discussing this matter
they profess great admiration for the Con-
stitution and the Courts; but call their at
itention to the fact that the legislation OF
Congress has been in violation of the Con-
stitution,. land in the face of decisions of
the Supreme Court OF the United States,
and they grow indignant that you shall
refer to either the Constitution or the
Courts by way of rebuking the usurpation
of the Radicals in Congress.
Reflection should convince these men
that if the Constitution and the Courts
shield their capital invested in Government
securities from State, county and munic-
fipal taxation, it is incumbent on them to
cultivate in the minds of the people rev.
erence for the Constitution and the decis-
ions of the Supreme Court of the United
States, instead of cultivating therein un-
mitigated contempt for them; for the mo-
ment the people come to cherish this sort
of contempt, You need not talk to them OF
plighted faith to the bond-holder. 'is's!iG

What the President Is Sworn t0
DO. SOS


DO. a.
~ Will you pardon as for calling attention
to what the President of the United States
Is sworn; to do, inasmuch as it involves a
reference to the Constitution of the United
States? Upon entering upon the discharge
of his duty as President of the United
States, he takes this oath or affirmation:
"I do solemnly swear Cor affirm) that /
will faithfully execute the Office of Presi-
dent of the United States, and toiH to the
best of nay ability preserue. protect and defend
the Constitution of the United States"
1t will thus be seen that his oath of of
flee enjoins upon him an important duty
and that duty is not to enforce partisan
DEGREES; but to the best of his "Ability,"
which contempIates the exercise of every
comm mandabIe power, to preserve, pro-
itect, and defend the Constitution of the
United States" e-ft
The Constitution (article two and Sec
tion two) declares:
"The President shall be Connnander-in-
Chief Of The Arr,ty and Many of the Unite d
States, and of the Militia of the several
States, when called into the actual service
of the United States.'' s--@o5. --s s.
And yet in the face of the oath of the
President and this provision of the Consti-
tuition, the Radicals in Congress have un-
dertaken to put him under subordinates in
the army. and because he has respect for
his oath of. office and for his position of
commander-ln-chief,t the Radical press are
doing their utmost to lash the people into
furious rage at him.. In this controver-
sy, it is not a question whether President
johnson shall be sustained. Itis whether
the Constitution, and with it Constitu-
tional Government, shall be sustained
That's the question.

The Cost of the Collection of the
Internal Revemme.

A gentleman who is good at figures, and
who claims to be fully posted, has assured
us that it costs over seventeen per cent. to
collect the Internal Revenue in this Dis
trict, whereas it does not cost too per cent. to
collect the State and County Taxes by
State and County authorities.
That whichis true with regard to this
District touching the collection of the In
ternal Revenue, is undoubtedly true with
regard to every other District.
Itsis claimed by the Democracy that this
Internal Revenue can be as cheaply col
lected by the respective States, as they col
lect-State, County and Municipal taxes.
This claim is not unwarranted. The De-
mocracy wish to bring about this reform,
and in this one matter alone, would save
to the people at least fifteen per cent. The
saving would be tremendous. For the
year ending June 80, 1866, the Internal Rev
enue collected by the Federal Government
was -t,oo hundred and t,oelue million, sic hun
dred and seren thousand, nine hundred and
t.centy seren dollars and seventy seuen cents. A
saving of fifteen per cent. in the collection
of this vast sum would amount to thirty-one
millions, eight hundred and ninety-one thou
sand, one hundred and eighty-ntne dollars and
strteen cents. With this amount the De-
mocracy could have carried on every de-
partment of Government in the State
State, County, City and Town and Town
ship, for four gears, as is shown by the Au-
ditor of States report, running from 1851 to
T.: 49,. I,,A ~.
State Government was under the control of
the Democracy. - -. n.
Is it not proper, then, that we should de-
mand reformation in this matter, to the
end that the aggregate taxes OF the people
shall be lessened to the extent of over
thirty-one millions of dollars?
