Political Matters,

Gov. BAKER will commence a Sc
ries of campaign speeches in Ohio. by
speech in Cincinnati on next Mon
day night.
IT is understood in the knowing
circles at indianapolis that Senator
THOMAS A. HENDRICKS is willing to
make the race for Governor, with the
understanding that the Democracy,
If successful, will send him back to
the United States Senate.
THE Amnesty Proclamation, as
originally prepared, applied to every
body but JEFF. DAVIS, Gen. LEE and
few others. This was JOHNSON
first idea, but he was talked out of it,
on the ground that the people
would mt stand it. .a ID
IT seems to be agreed that good
grounds exist for. the report that Gen
eral MCCLELLAN has been sent for.
with the view of placing him in the
War Department. T't~za' 1921 rDo'
Elk GOVERNOR JOSEPH E, Brown,
of Georgia, and Hon. WIhL4AM WIN
DOM, NJ. c., from Minnesota, are
stumping Georgia in aid Of the Re

selves the United States and National
Union johnson Men have been hold
ing an ''encampment' at Washington.
The last encampment of the johnson
men was at Appomattox Court House,
where they surrendered to General
GRANT.
GEN. LOGAN is advertised in the
Ohio papers to fulfill stumping tour
in that State The General has pro-
missed to make but five or six address
es, but the people insist on his speak
ing at dozen prominent points. He
speaks at GAINESVILLE on the 18th. The
Courier of that city says that his
mass meeting will exceed in magni-
tude any political meeting that ever
assembled in that county
1T is announced on the authority
of private letter from Maine, that
Senator FEssENDEN, heretofore op-
posing the measure, now avows him
self in favor of impeachment. He
states that he favors it in the belief
of its absolute necessity for the pres
ervation Of the. public interest, and
in obedience to the well-nigh unani-
nous sentiment of his constituents.
GENERAL GRIFFIN, as the tempo
rary successor of General SHERIDAN,
has followed the instructions of Gen.
GRANT, as General CANBY did, and
directed all orders in force in = the

The result of the California cleo
ton has taught the Union party, both
in New York and throughout the
country, a wholesome lesson. 1t has
taught US that we can never afford
either to indulge in family quarrels or
to nominate any other than unexcep-
tionable men. Party chicauery was
allowed in California to effect divi-
sion in our ranks, and the enemy
rushed in at the breach and beat us.
Moreover, of the two Republican can
didates for Governor, neither had
any real strength The personal rec
ord of one was not clear; the other
had no record at all. The Democrat
ic candidate, on the other hand, was
a gentleman Of the highest personal
character No wonder we were beat
en-. Now let US take this lesson to
heart, and make no more wicked
blunders.-N Y. Tribune.

the Constitution itself. II restored all
our citizens to the condition before the
war, aud is full pardon forauy connec.

The very mode provided by the Consti-
tuition for the purpose. It's too clear
for doubt, though some may prcteud
that il requires each individual to be
named in the act. The Constitution
didnot say 50, and il is folly To Contend,
when whole class was included, tina,
individuals should be specified,
The new Registry law is now sin,

The Registry In CarrelI.

Il was geacrally expected here that
the Governor would have TO appoint
new Registers aud that those who gave
50 much difficulty last year Would be
gotten rid Of this year. Great was the
surprise, however, when we learned,
last Friday, for the first time, that all
the Old Registers we're continued BY law
for two years from their appointment.
