From The Crisis.l
m Kicked Out.

The telegraph announces that Presi-
dent johnson has exercised an evil spir-
il from the councils Of the Government.
Edwin NJ. Stanton, who has held the
Office Of Secretary of War, after repeated
suubbinga, such as no high minded man
would endure, through the vacillation Of
his chief, has finally been compelled to
surrender the Office in which he has COM
mitted SO many outrages upon the Com
stitution and the rights of the people,
Hs went out protesting that he yielded
,Ouly TO the superior force" of johnson
and Grant, No man has had SO much to
do towards introducing the quality of
FoRcE-the arbitrary dictum ofthe indi-
yidual instead of the natural sovereignty
.Oi the law-as Stanton, and it is but
Just that he should feel the application
in his own person, No more ungraciOus
retirement wa wei effected than has
been this ejectmept Of tie War Secretary.
II he ever contemplated the leadership OF
ap open revolution to overthrow the
government and declare q Dictatorship,
The humiliation of his present position
and the conventional obscurity which be-
fills "Jack out Of Office" have destroy
e his prospects.

A very trifing effort on tie part Ofsome

DECLlNED.-WlL LILLIAN MAhk, LSqi
the candidate for Prosecuting Attor-
ney on the ticket which a few of the
friends of "Manhood Suffrage" put in
nomination last Monday week, has de-
clined. He says he wants no office
We are informed that SYLvANUs BART
LETT, candidate for Surveyor, on the
same ticket, has also declined. What
is the matter? Are these men opposed
to the Proposed Amendment to the
Constitution giving negroes the right
to vote and hold office? We hope 80.
These gentlemen who have declined
well know that one of the principal
planks in the platform made by the
Radicals, (not by the poor, honest, la
boring people, at a State Convention
held at Columbus, a few weeks ago, is
a declaration in favor of Negro Stuff
rage. Many Republicans in Vinton
county declare that they will not vote
for the proposed amendment, but
think they will vote the ticket nomin-
ated by the leaders. Now the party
and all the candidates on the State
and all the candidates on the
County ticket, (if they do not decline,0
are pledged in favor of Negro Suffrage.
For instance, JOHN FEE, candidate for
Representative in this county, is
pledged in favor of Negro Suffrage,
and in favor Of BEN WADE for Office.
We can't see how any man who is
opposed to Negro Suffrage can support
any man on the Radical ticket and
claim to be consistent. Suppose that
the Amendment is defeated and the
Radicals elect a majority to the Legis-
lature. Mr.. SUMNER, the leading Rad
ical in the New England States, at the
session of Congress held last month,
proposed an amendment to the Con-
stitution of the United States giving
Negroes the right to vote in defiance
of State law. This amendment will
undoubtedly be submitted to the sew
eral State Legislatures, during the
next winter, for ratification and, if
the Radicals have a majority in our
next Legislature, they will of course
the proposed amendment of.
Sumner in defiance Of the will Of the
Of course, JOHN FEE, the
Radical candidate for Representative
in this county, if elected, would vote
in favor of the amendment proposed
by Congress, if the amendment to our
State Constitution is defeated, and
thus defeat the will of the people. If
the Republicans Of Vinton county are
sincere in their opposition to this
amendment, they must vote against
ALL the Candidates on the Radical tick
ct.
