After a long session, a vote was taken
in the Senate on the 18th inst, on the
following resolution which was passed.
The vote standing 81 yeas and nays:
Resolved, That the Senate do not con-
sent to sustain the President in his sus-
pension of Edwin nj. Stanton as Sec
rotary of War. : ..aaet ,u....-
Mr.. Stanton being reinstated, he i'm
mediately resumed his place in the war
office, Gen. Grant retiring without any
particular form. a.... -..... .......r.
Whether he will remain In the office
is not known. It Is thought that the
President will attempt to resist the ac-
lion of the Senate. or will refuse to rec
ognize Sec. Stanton in any way. .-
The Washington Inte,ligencer indui-
ges in its defiant tone, and the demo-
Gratis generally are. urging the Presi.
dent to do his worst. Be this ms ID may
the loyal people everywhere will thank
the Senate for this just indication of a
faithful officer. ....-,,. a,,. ..trefr, .

The Coming Contest.

Although months will intervene be-
fore the candidates of either party will
be chosen for the Presidency, the tone
of the Democratic press, the political
speeches of the leaders OF the party
and the resolutions passed at the late
conventions held in Ohio and Indiana,
plainly indicate the position of that
party on the leading and vital questions
of the day and the issues to be fought
out. "s
In every public meeting held east or
west, the Democratic party have open
ly avowed policy in opposition to the
Reconstruction Acts of Congress, and
to the Republican party on the suffrage
and financial questions. To the defeat
of reconstruction the Democratic can
'lidate will be pledged. The war set
tied the question of actual servitude of
the blacks of the South, yet the open
declarations of the party are in opposi-
ton to the freedom Of the blacks and
the determination Of purpose to SUBJ
ject them, If possible, to a condition
worse than that of actual servitude.
The Ohio and Indiana Democratic
conventions nominate Geo. HI. PEN
dleton and endorse his ''stumptail'
reputation scheme on the currency
question; Andrew Johnson, who pre-
sided at Democratic Banquet I'm
Washington, virtually says that loyal
ty to this Government is crime, and
Attorney General Stanbcrry declares
publicly that the reconstruction meas
ures are unconstitutional and will be
declared by the Supreme Court null
and void. These movements and utter
ances plainly indicate the points of the
political compass and demonstrate be-
yond question that the leaders of the
Democratic party are as certainly plot
ting the destruction of this Govern
mcnt now as they were during the
war. With these facts before US, the
duty of the Republican party is easily
understood. The path is plainly marked
out, and ii is evident that this Govern
ment is to be perpetuated only by the.
diffusion of loyal principles and the
firm and united action of the Republi-
can party. aaa a aa-@a-.s.
