When the Radicals in Washington
learned Of Grants nomination they mus
tered from the different Departments
about two hundred Clerks and went hur.
rabing to bis residence. In response to
their calls for . speech, he recited nine
lines. Here is the winding up:
"0f my rectitude in the Performance
Of public duties, you win have to judge
for yourselves BY my record before you" "
Grants record was laid before the peo.
pie by the President and his Cabinet, in
which he was convicted of wiifully de-
ceiying the President. His "reetitude in
the performance Of public duties, " is Of
the worst order. The people are not dis
posed to invest in "fectitudep which has
been proven to be bogus. Poor Grant,

On the 18th ult., Thad. Stevens had the
pleasure Of witnessing spectacle which
he was once anxious to behold. On the
I'd Of March, when impeachment was in
troduced to the House, he cried, (raising
his finger over his head and pointing to-
ward the SenateD "let me see the recre-
ant who dares to tread back upon his
steps and vote upon the other side. Point
me out one who dares do it, and you show
me one who dares to be regarded as infd-
nous by posterity." We don't know how
the spectacle on Monday and Tuesday af-
fected Mr.. Stevens. But when he saw
the Oldest and most distinguished mem
bers Of the Senate, the ablest lawyers in
the body, the men who were the founders
Of the Republican party, and are now its
main pillars. prounounoing against i'm
peachment, he must have felt how little
his threats had amounted to. He must
have become conscious that there were
some men who spurned his dietation and
scorned his menaces.

The following kilograms to Senator

in regard to impeachment. In their opin-

which was correct, and they preferred
that Senators should perjure themselves,
rather than impeachment should fail;

paper published it New York City, said
Of Grant in the 18th Of May issue:
"It is now proposed to nominate Grant
at Chicago. A man to govern this nation
in the most critical period of its history,
who cannot govern his own appetites.--
We have enough drunkenness and sensu-

would exalt the moral tone of this nation,
let our young men, just coming on the
stage Of action, see that vice and weak
ness disqualifes o man for the highest
