End of the Second Impeachment Farce.

End of the Second impeachment Farce.
The Reconstruction Committee in Con.
gress have had the impeachment of Presi-
dent JOHNSON before them a second time,
but majority has voted against it. Mr..
THADDEus STEVENS is greatly chagrined
at the result, though he says he did not
expect it would be much different. He
says the Republican Party is virtually de-
teated, aud all through the cowardice of
its own members. He attaches much OF
the blame to Gen. GRANT and his friends,
who, he says, became frightened aud de-
moralizcd for what reason he does not
exactly know. 1t is his 6rm belief that had
the friends of GRANT. as well as GRANT
himself, kept their hands off, nothing
could have saved JOHNSON.
A correspondent Of the New York Tri-
bune says that when the vote in committee
was declared against THAD. STEVENS res
olutions of impeachment, the old fool
said:
"Sir, the Republican party has been kill
ed to day by the action Of this Committee,
at the instance of Gen. Grant and his
friends. ! have found that for the last two
or three days, the men who shout the loud
est and throw their hat the highest for u.
S. Grant, have been using every exertion
to demoraIize Mr.. Bingham and other
members of this committee, who were sup
posed to favor impeachment that Grant
has been using his influence everywhere to
defeat the scheme. and that Andrew John
son has to thank him that he remains un
disturbed in the White House. | have
been in public life for forty years, and
though ] do not pretend to any gift of
prophecy, have seldom been mistaken in

cowardly action will cost US New York,
Pennsylvania, Ohio, aud probably three or
four more of the Northern States.

The Tribune Grammar.

Mr.. CROWLEY The senior editor OF
the Tribune lately paid visit to the First
Ward school, and in the course of his COM
ments upon its teachers and pupils men
toned that some one in the intermediate
Department made use of doabIe negative,
something not allowable in an English sem
tence. IF such was the ease, the criticism
is just There is a trite, though significant
proverb, that those who live in glass houses
should not throw stones at their neighbors,
and it requires but hasty glance at Mr..
SMITH editorial on schools in his issue OF
February sixth, to convince any one that
the grammatical side Of he Tribune Office is
composed of thin glass which very small
pebbles would seriously injure. In the ar
ticle before mentioned, he makes the fol
lowing assertion:
After a scholar had said his say and
set down the remainder Of the lesson was
wholly devoid Of interest to him"
Now, Mr.. SMITH is guilty Of a great
mistake iD making such 4 statement, for it
has long been custom in this locality to
allow hens to set rather than school chill
dren. If this report should be circulated
without contradiction, it might lead the
public to entertain wrong ideas of the Gus
toms of Manitowoc. This is my only mo-
tive for denying it, SO much in vinGica
tion of the public character. For the bene-
fit of the gentleman himself, | call his at
tention to the following sentence: THE
sense which the words we're intended to con
vcy, was taught as well as were pronuncia
tion,' which in addition to being a very
clumsy, awkward specimen, has the plural
verb were joined to the singular subject
pronunciation. y This has decidly bad ap-
pearance when so near criticism on the
language of another. These errors are no
doubt typographical and not chargabe
upon the editor; but as preventative
against future mistakes Of a similar char
acter on the part of those who set type in
the TrIune office, would suggest the
propriety Of Mr.. SMITH providing himself
with a Primary Grammar and a cheap
Dictionary. [ am shocked at Mrs. SHUyE's 5
ba lbarity in having beaten her scholars so
as to mark ruler In my school days |
had considerable experience in similar arti
cles, but never was it my lot to see a ruler

The elections of yesterday have
put our people in a .feverish state OF
uncertainty. The news from Ohio,

lectures and estimates on votes Of

The Radicals are claiming that they
have carried the eIeetioas In the
States mentioned, the telegaphie
reports show large Democratic
gains In Philadelphia, giving the
Democrats three or four Congress
men; and In Ohio large gains in
many Radical towns and counties !;
and In Indiana . similar condition
of affairs; hence we are unable to see
how, by these reports, tlfey can with
any show OF fairness claim the VIC

but may be able, before we go to
press, to give some Idea as 70 how
