ME ARNEII,s CARD.

In asking us to publish his denial OF
statement contained ia Col Bakers
speech at Cleveland, Mr. Arnell asks a
very unusual courtesy; but we accord it,
nevertheless; for we are honestly and
earnestly DESTROYS to have all possible
light on the plumber Of that sacred
school fund But that is not, we are
persuaded, the object of Mr.. Arnell in
this adroit card His purpose, We imagine,
is rather to break the overwhelming
force Of Col. Baxter's indictment and to
cast doubt upon his general statements.
Rut his plea is insufficient Without at
present entering into the controversy, we
submit that Mr.. Arnell does not touch the
question. The assertion of Baxter was
that Rutter told Senator johnson that he
had let Mr. Arnell have ten thousand
dollars " in a business way" This Mr.
Arnell does not deny; but says he never
received from Rutter or any one else
any money on account OF his official &C.
ton as a member Of the Legislature. The
real question in the mind Of the people is
Did Mr.. Arnell receive ten thousand dol
lars, or any other sum of money from
Mr.. Rutter2 That is the primary ques'
ton. From all the other facts in the
possession of the public, they will draw
their own conclusions VIII he answer
that-yes, or no.
Mr.. Arnelrs implied impeachment Of
Col Baxters veracity is equally unsatis
factory Does he deny that Rutter told
Senator Johnson that he (Rutter) had lei
him (ArnelD have ten thousand dollars
''in business way Without such de
NAL Col Bakers statement stands unim.
peached. VIII Mr. Arnell deny that Rut
ter made the statement to Senator John
SOM An answer to these several inqui-
ries will throw some light upon the sub
Iceland without such answer the matter
will remain very much as it was before

A CARD FROM MIR. ARNELL

To THE EDITORS OF THE UNION AM
DISPATCH In a speech of Mr.. John
Baxter, published in the UNION AND DIS
PATCH of the 10th inst, find the follow
ing:
MEMBERS OF THE LEGIsLATURE IMPLICATED
Mr.. RutteT, President Of the LiHie Bank, which
shared so largely in the spOils, told Senator
johnson that he had let members Of the Legis-
lature have some money, and that he had let
Mr.. Arnell have ten thousand dollars, IA a bust
aess lOuv I"
This is nothing less than an indirect
charge, that received money in conHec-
ton with the transfer to the Tennessee
National Bank of the seven-thirty bonds
belonging to the school fund. | desire
simply to state, without any unnecessary
adiectives, that this insinuation in point of
fact is false and sIdnderOus. / knew Moth
ing whatever Of the "bond matter, d.
rectly or indirectly, until / saw an &C
count of it in the newspapers at Washing
ton city. In the first place, | never re-
ceived ten thousand dollars from Mr.. Rut-
ter. Secondly, ] never received from Mr..
Rutter, or anybody else, one cent for any
official action of mine. Ny enemies are
invited TO the closest and strictest scrutiny
of my official or private character. This
defamation by Mr.. Baxter was made solely
for political purposes, to injure me where
| am not personally known. 1t is cow
ardly assassin's stab, false insinuation,
without the responsibility of n direct
charge. Respectfully,
SAMUEL NJ. ARNELL.

THE WORKINGS OF THE MILITARY
HYHTEM.

The military commanders in the South
ern States are, in many instances, ex-
eeeding the authority conferred by the
law under which they act, and are per-
verting it, as well as the civil rights law,
into a system of outrageous and unre-
heved military usurpatiOns. They are
substituting for the acts of Congress, un-
constitutional and tyrannicai as they are,
martial law-that detestable thing which
Lord Chief Justice Coekburn, of Eng
land, has recently pronounced to be the
total abandonment Of all those rules and
principles which are of the very essence
Of justice and law Instead OF recon
structing, and in obedience to the third
section of the law which defines their
duties, protecting all persona in their
rights of person and property, they have
laid violent hands upon the civil law,
under which these rights are shielded,
and assume for themselves an authority
which cannotbe rightfully welded by any
one man, or set Of men, however exalted
in station Sheridan in Louisiana, pulls
down and sets up affairs at WILL modifes
existing laws after his own views, and
puts into hands Of board of his own
appointment the leyee fund of that State
amounting TO four millions of dollars
Griffin, his subordinate in Texas annuls
the laws Of that State and prescribes the
qualification for jurors. Schofeld, in
Virginia, interdicts the freedom of the
press and of speech and sets aside the
vested rights of private corporations.
Sickles, in South Carolina, makes a Cess
ler's cap of the national colors, and bids
all man salute it Pope, in Georgia,
supersedes officers, abolishes laws, and
directs the Governor how he shall advise
the people to whom he is responsible.
Ord prorogues the Legislature of Arkansas,
and threatens, III a contingency, to take
its treasury under his control
Truly, this is Radical Republicanism.
1t would be well, as it has obtained such
a stand in one section, to give it free run
over the entire country We opine that
it would hasten the contamination. There
seems to be no prospect of arresting it,
and the sooner its results are worked out,
we may hope for Ropublicanism without
the Radical ingredient. Pretexts can be
found in every State of the Union for
Sheridans and Ords Connecticut is
in bad way, and Kentucky has yet
hankering for the hesh-pots of the past
New York is on the eve of amending her
constitution, and may fail to square it ex-
actly to the standard Ohio is in a mud
die about negro suffrage, and the eight
hour labor movement is kicking up a gens
raj shindy everywhere among the ingeni
GUS people north CT the Ohio river To
the end that the system of government
made easy in the hands Of one man, now
in practice in the South, may be extended
to that region, it is suggested that the
reconstruction law be made applicable to
the whole country, and satraps placed in
command at once.

PRESIDENTIAL IMPEACHMENT

Butler, Boutwell,, Ashley and the ig-
noble set who herd with them, are still
ransacking the stews to suborn witnesses
TO support charges Of impeachment
against President johnson They have not
met with much success, and il they were
not the vile creatures they are, the dis
couragement shown towards the move-
ment by the more respectable and high>
toned Of their own party, would cause
them 10 desist and sink in shame from
the undertaking But in face of the fact
that there is no disposition on the part Of
the majority in Congrers TO assemble in
July to hear any report from them, and
that they can discover no material for
action that can be sustained on credible
proof, they remain in session, and cause
il 10 be given out from time TO time, that
they have some frightlul disclosure 10
make They are of easy approach by
every abandoned wretch who would play
the part Of Titus Oates, and keep open
ears for the tales Of any mercenary scamp
who will manufacture falsehoods for their
purposes
Really, this business is becoming the
scandal Of the nation Ii is the history
of impeachments that oitener than other
wise, they are founded in political pas
zion and enmity, and it is only where the
dereiction OF ofenss is clear and palpa-
BE, and the reasons weighty, that they
should be entered on but ohaye a con-
claye Of heated and prejudiced partisans
IN perpetual session TO spy upon the Of
fetal conduct Of the Chief Magistrate If
the government. and 10 act as the reser>
yoir Of the calumuies Of a shameless and
polluted press with the intention to drag
At for evidence against him, is disgrace
before the world A sense OF national
seli-respect should cause the dismissal Of
ihis committee az once

Miss Halcrot. Both of the parties are still

Appeal from the National Union Com
miIGpP.

New YORK, May 16.-The National
Union Committee to-day issued an appeal
to the Republicans of the country for assist
ance and cooperation in this suspicious
crisis of the country. 1t is deemed of the
highest importance that the Republicans
in every State should Immediately re,or-
ganize for the coming elections of 1867,
preparatory to the coming Presidential
contest, and especially in the States in
which the equal and inalienable rights of
men, as a just basis of government, have
not before been recognized.

SWIndIing- of the Party Arrested.
etc. etc.

ST. LOUIS, May l6.-Charges Of fraud
and swinding have been made against
Virgins & Crawther, drygoods dealers OF
this city, and one member of the firm ar
rested. 1t seems they bought large stocks
of goods in New York and Boston, on
three and four months time. These goods
were sent to Philadelphia and Cincinnati
and sold under the hammer for cash. A
large quantity of them were also sold at
auction in this city. They borrowed sew
eral thousand dollars on short time, and
then made an assignment and closed doors.
Virgins was arrested, but Crawther fed
the city. The former was released on bail,
but Immediately re-arrested by his Eastern
creditors.
Auguste Kan, who stole the wife of
Charles Beerduch, of Cleveland, and
brought her TO this city a short time since,
was tried yesterday for adultery and SEN
fenced to six months in the county Jail,
and to pay $4,000.
The impeachment trial of Judge Lyon
began in the State Senate yesterday, but
nothing important was developed in the
proceedings. There was barely quorum
of Senators present
