of Andrew johnson, for it would save
the country a. vast amount Of money,

even the destruction OF our Constitution

confessed that, excepting secession and

DEATH OF Col. CLAP OF PORTLAND.
We regret to announce the death of
Col. Charles Q. Clapp, Of Portland, Maine,
one Of tho most earnest friends of the
Portland and Rutland Railroad. We
give the following sketch of his life.
taken from the Portland Daily Star of
March 9Th:
Though our community were not taken
altogether by surprise in seeing the an
nouncement of the death of our esteemed
fellow citizen, Charles Q. Clapp-knowing
that, for sevena1 months he has been laid
aside from the activities OF life by NOR
tai disease-the event itself has left a
void which can hardly be filed. Identi.
fed from his birth with Portland, where
he was born May 6, 1199 warmly allied
by sympathy and interest in its growth
and prosperity, having expended his en-
ergies in making large additions to its
material wealth by engaging in extensive
improvements, and being connected with
many OF the enterprises which have occu-
pied public attention, his sagacity and
council will be greatly missed in business
circles, and the loss of his influence in the
community be seriously deplored.
Having received liberal and CONNER
cial education, his early wears, even be-
fore arriving at majority, were devoted 10
mercantile pursuits. But his natural
inclination led him soon after to abandon
thus held, and to engage in improving his
real estate. Possessing an unusual taste
for architecture, in which he was excelled
by few, every building erected under
his auspices was designed and modelled by
himself, and many, notwithstanding the

TUE PATRIARCH AND Hrs SoSs.-A
meeting Of the five sons of Rev. Ammi
Nichols took place recently in their ma
tive town Of Braintree, at the home OF
their venerable father. The occasion
was one of deep interest, for such meet
ing had not occurred before for thirty
three years; and it was brought about by
the statement which went the rounds OF
the papers some weeks ago, that Father
Nichols is the patriarch of Vermont min
listers. A copy of that statement strayed
into the hands of one of the sons resident
in Illinois, who, feeling that he must see
that patriarch before he died, sent TO his
brothers in Wisconsin and Minnesota, and
all came together to the old home in Yer
mont, still the home of one of the sons.
A photograph of the group-the father
and five sons--was taken; and while con-
versing together of the need of parson-
age on Braintree Hill, and the improba-
bilitv of the feeble church and society be-
ing able to build one alone, it was pro-
posed that inasmuch as the family's circle
of friends is large, the picture be adver-
tised for sale-each copy being sold for
two dollars, at profit of one dollar and
half, which shall go towards the par
sonage fund for Braintree Notice is
hereby given to this effect, and all per-
sons desiring to possess family picture
of rare interest, as well as to aid the fee

JoHNsoN's RESIGNATION ADVISED
1t is encouraging to learn from various
sources facts substantiating reports to the
effect that the friends Of Andrew john
son, President of the United States, have
urgently invited him to resign his Office.
Such course would seem, at present, to
favor both popular, national and the per-
sonal interests of Mr.. johnson. The
Presidents home organ, the National In
telligencer, hints at the possibility of such
coup de grace, and the New York Her
aid deems it not only appropriate, but abb
solutely necessary to secure the nominal
ton Of Mr.. johnson by the Democratic

desolation Of the great fire, remain in diff,
ferent parts Of the city to attest his skin
and perpetuate his enterprise,
He has erected, probably, larger num-
Der OF buildings ON his own account than
any other person.
The most notable perhaps Of all his im-
proyements was that Of filling up, in con-
neetion with his surviving brother, A. W,
ii. Clapp, many acres OF the flats con-
nected with Back Cove, some OF which
are now traversed with new streets, lined
with neat and convenient houses, and by
means OF which very large amount OF
property has been added TO the valuation
of the city Had his original design been
eonsumated, which the conflicting views
and rights Of other parties rendered i'm,
practicable, his genius and forecast would
have left a monument still more honora-
Die TO his memory, We refer to the de-
sign for improving Back Cove for water
power and the erection Of docks and
wharyes, survey and plans for which
were made at his own expense, by skill
ful engineer, and which, II carried out
would have added immensely to the ma
terial wealth and prosperity of the city
Iattcrly his thoughts and energies were
devoted moro particularly to the Fort
land and Rochester Railroad, of which he
was the father, and which he, in common
with many OF our citizens, regarded OF
great interest to the people OF Maine hay,
ing business relations with the West, and
az prominent Importance 10 Portland.
His energy was perhaps mover more
yiivuIffv DISPLAYED than while suffering
from disease which was liable to ter
mina.e his life instantly, no personally
supervised the reconstruction OF some tel
stores over the almost smoking ruins o
those destroyed by the fire of July Ith
1866, all built Of durable materials, orna
mental 10 the city, all occupied, and thi
all accomplished within the period o
about eight months.
/ Though possessing qualities which emf
ncn,ly fitted him for public life, will
broad and liberal views, and endowed
with intellectual power which would hay,
placed him in the front ranks Of distinc
/ tion and influence, he continuously de
clined political Office from the Democrat
! party, with which he was warmly identi
/ fed, and with the single exception of rep
rescnting Portland in the Legislator
many years ago, and being pressed by hi
friends ON repeated occasions for Mayor Q
T me CtTy, he yielded 10 others honor whict
otherwise he gracefully would have worn
Though possessing large estate he wa
uuostcntdtious in his bearing though hi
charities were never paraded in the pres
u" always remembered she poor, and tn
humhlcst Of our population often in hin
found a warm and generous friend,
He leaves a widow, the daughter of tn
late Gen. Wiugate, and two daughter
one the wife Of our estimable friend an
fellow citizen, J. b. Carroll of this city
and the other the wife of Winthrop {
Ray Of New York city.

SUPERINTENDENT BAKER--The Balls
ton Journal pays very deserved eompli-
ment TO the ability, watclfulneSs and
care OF I. ', Baker, Superintendent OF The
Rensselaer, and Saratoga railroad, which
we take great pleasure in copying. Mr..
Baker is one Of the best railroad men in
the country, and his management OF the
extended lines forming the Rensselaer, X
Saratoga road has been such as to justify
all that is said below and more:
at has recently fallen within our pur-
view 10 notice more particularly than ever
before the management of the railroads
running through this place. From our
personal knowledge we feel safe in saying
that it would be impracticable for any
man TO give more time or greater care 10
the lines under his charge than does |. '.
Baker From Monday morning till Sa-
furdaY might, week IN and Week out, an
the lines operated by the Rensselaer, and
Saratoga Company are under his vigilant
inspection. Over two hundred and fifty
miles of track not q single accident has
occurred in many months from broken OF
displaced rails. Every foot OF track is
examined by employesreach morning be-
fore the trains pass, and all rules are
rigidly enforced. Every man in the ser,
vice Of the Company knows that nothing
can be hid from the Superintendent
watchful eye, and promptitude, safety,
and economy, are the result. II there Is
hard working man, faithful to his trusts
unsparing and indefatigable in his efforts
that man is l. V. Baker
