T+E IMPEACHMENT OF THE PRFSY.
IDENT

We have advices from Washington that
the Radical destructives will. beyond anv
doubt within ninety DAYS. reyolutionige
the government by the forcible deposition
and removal of the President from Office
Under this impression We advise our read
ers and friends to avoid the acknowledgements
Of debts and other business contracts that
are dependent upon state Of peace and
tranquility for their performance. and 10
keep all sails set for an impending storm
and CONFUSION. A crisis Is AZ hand for
such a step will, beyond any doubt, create
a general state of uncertainty as regards
the future, will destroy all confidence i'm
the South to meet its engagements. and I'M
settle trade and business in every direction.
The impeachment of the President will
lead 10 consequences the most serious-coq
seqnnces that those engaged in pushing it
on have little contemplated or dreamed of
IN any respect. IL will open a new revolu-
iionary chapter in onr history, when all the
checks and balances Of the government will
be DESTROYED and everything like perma-
nency IN 1t forever disappear In its best
aspects, the usurpation would be dangerous
10 the public peace and tranquility, and in
IFS fruits will be followed by results that we
can hardly consider without a shudder.-

GEN. wAsmINGroN,s LAST VOTE.

The Father Of his country was c0nscien-
tious in the discharge of every duty as
citizen, and never failed TO vote The last
occasion Of his doing so was in the spring
of 1899, in the town of Alexandria. He
died on the llth Of December following.
The courthouse of Fairfax county was
then over the old markethouse, and i'm
mediately fronting Gadshy's tavern. The
entrance into Il was by slight flight Of
crazy steps on the outside, and while the
election was progressing several thou.
sands of persons being assembled around
the polls Washington drove mp in his old
and well-known family carriage. The
crowd spontaneously gave way and made
lane for him to pass through as he ap-
preached the courthouse steps A gentle
man who was standing at Gadby's door saw
eight OF ten good-looking men Immediately
spring forward and follow the General up
the steps in order 10 uphold and support
HIM II necessary. According TO the custom
OF that Time the FIVE or six candidates were
Htting on the bench, who rose in a body
and bowed profoundly on the entrance of
Washington. Very gracefully returning
their saluiation, the register of the polls
said: Well General, how do Won vote T."
llt was then hv rsd 5oUel He looked a
moment st the candidate. and replied
Gentlemen, / vote Tor measures. not for
men aud having auaibly propouuced his
N.ole, he made another graceful bow and re-
ured. de was loudly .cheered br the out
ward crowd on returning to his carriage.

slightest difficulty in procuring all that Is
needed. Those who Oppress and defraud
their laborers cannot induce them 10 remain
with them the second year. But planters
from Alabama on the Tombigbee, and from
Louisiana on the Red, say they hayespaid
the freedmen good wages, rewarded the
first class hands with extra pay, paid
promptly 3nd fed we'll, and have all the
workers they want We venture TO say
there are thousands who will corroborate
these planters experience and few contra
dict them. Good wages, good treatment,
good supervision above all else will secure
labor in abundance, white or black; while
they who grind the faces Of the poor, will
always fnd them unservicable We close
by saying TO the planters, with a writer in
the Southern CultaQt0r, " Cultivate smaller
farms, enrich your lands, diversity your
crops, and labor diligently yourselves; and
il you do not become wealthy, You can
have at least an abundance about you TO
render life 4 blessing.

The evening Argus., 1867-06-26

About two years ago man by the name
of Henderson living at Glenwood, Iowa, TWEEN
ty miles south of Council Bluffs, was arres-
ted by so-called Vigilan ce Committee, and
hung for horse stealing. His wife followed
the committee to the tree on which they
hung her husband. imploring them to desist
as he was innocent of the charge. But hang
him they did. He was afterwards found to
be innocent. Two brothers of Mrs. Hender-
son named Lawn were at that time in Colo
RADIO territory. Two weeks ago these young
men returned home with something near
$4,000. On hearing of Mr.. Henderson,
fate they threatened to prosecute the guilty
parties, and, on the 14th inst, this gang of
regulators, y numbering 27 or % men, hung
the Lawn brothers in order to prevent their
prosecuting them for numbering Henderson.
They also robbed these boys of $4,000 in
money which they had on their persons. We
think congress had better appoint a military
commander for Iowa, at once-there is more
need of it than in any southern state. @
