JOhnSOn'S Twelve.

The Democratic press has not
yet ceased to give us virtuous arti-
cles in condemnation of the parti-
san character Of the impeachment
proceedings. But unfortunately the
press aforesaid has failed to notice
on which side of the house the par
tisanship has been displayed. On
no question that has yet arisen in
the trial of Johnson, have the Re-
publican Senators voted as a unit.
Each Senator seems to have voted
in accordance with his own person
al convictions of duty, uninfuenced
by the course pursued by the ma
jority of the members of his party.
On some Of the most important
points involving the admisability OF
evidence, the vote, it will be remem-
bered, was twenty-four to twenty
six, and on several questions the
Republican Senators were almost
equally divided.
How is it with twelve Democrat
ic Senators They have voted as
a unit on every question. If each
Senator had been the President S
law like Patterson, or the
Presidents son, he could not bet
ter have stuck to the accused through
thick and thin. If all had but one
neck, and johnson had placed a
collar around that neck, he could
not have secured more obedient vas
sails. They have voted as one man
for everything that looked towards
acquittal.
And again, while Senator Patter-
son, of the Presidents household
has been continually voting for his
father-i in-law's acquittal, Senator
Wade has with praiseworthy good
taste and commendable propriety
refrained from taking any part in
the proceedings whatever. In view
of these facts Of history it is about
4 time that the Democratic faisehoods
about political prosecution and 6
partisan trial should cease.--Col

The copperheads in the Ohio
Legislature affect great horror at
the idea of a wounded soldier with
sound mind, says the Scoto Ga.
zette, having the privilege of voting
and have passed a bill disfranchis-
ing those having a permanent resi-
dence at the Soldiers Home, on the
ground that they are inmates Of a
public institution. In this country
we are informed, they hauled men
from the poor house, many of them
non compos asentus, and had them
vote the copperhead ticket. Cop
perheadism being the same every
where, we conclude that the reason
assigned was only a pretense, and
that the rascals who voted to dis
franshise, the wounded soldiers they
dared not meet in the field, took
this cowardly way to punish them
for their loyalty.

ANOTHER, VIcroRY.-So far as
heard the election in Florida has
resulted in the ratification Of the
new Constitution and the election of
the Republican ticket. Thus an
other repentant State is knocking
for admission and the door will
soon be open.
We are confident that before the
Fourth of July, North and South
Carolina, Louisiana, Arkansas,
Georgia, and Florida will be repre-
sented in Congress.

The bill for the admission of Ar
kansas to representation in Congress
was put through the House Friday,
under the operation of the previo US
question, just rs it came from the
Reconstruction Committee. The
Democrats wanted to re- sist
it, but Mr.. Eldridgc was unable
to muster votes enough to fllibus-
ter on the question, and therefore
took the dose in silence and sour
ness, The debate was dull and un-
timpol tant, only an hour and a half
being allawed for it. Mr.. Stevens
ispoke ten minutes and appeared
more vigorous than when he atten-
ded the Senate as Manager. Only
four Republicans voted against the
bill, viz: Baker, Loan, Spalding and
Williams, of Pennsylvania.

The Lima Gazette says:

The prisoners confined in Jail have
quite disposition to secure their free
dom. A few days ago they had every
thing in readiness to depart, and were
only frustrated by the watchflllness of
Sheriff Bailey. An augur and saw had
been secured by them, and it was the
intention, when night came on, to buck
and gag the guard, and then cut a hole
through the upper floor, etfecting an
entrance into the Treasurer's office
This accomplished, their exit into the
street would have been easily secured.
The Sheriff, however, ''smelt mice
and searching the premises in the af-
ternoon. discovered the tools carefully
hid away in the bed of one of the pris-
oners. The leaders had the ''irons" ap-
piled, which will somewhat restrict
their labors in the future.

In Florence, Boone County, Ken
lucky, boy fifteen years of age,
son of G.. W. Grant went to draw
water from a we'll, when the handle
of the windlass which he was turn
ing flew back and struck pistol ia
his pocket, causing the load to be
discharged, which entered his side
producing very dangerous wound.
The boys of that region should fill
their pockets with Marbles kite
strings and such things that are less
addicted to explosion than pistols.

They used language toward each

gentlemen and they would have been
served right if they had been imme-
diately expelled.

to what has already been published on that
subject, that the outrage occurred about the
first of the present month. The lives of the

Merrweather. 1t is stated that, in tho present
condition of affairs in that part of the State it is
impossible to organize a civil posse to be of
any avail. The subject being one of military
cognizance, has been referred to the Secretary
OF War, who has taken prompt action in the

MEMPHIS, Sept. 4.-The Avaanches Little Rock
special to-day says Governor Clayton has prepared
instructions for his registers for the registration
now about to commence. He says the power and
duties of each in the registration to reject any
one whom the registers may think not entitled to
register, even though the applicant has already
taken the oath; to make arrests, and call upon
sheriffs for sufficient number of armed men to
assist him, and if not furnished then to call upon
the commanding officer of any troops of the State
Guard TO furnish promptly such aid. .... ..-...
An applicant for registration is also required to
prove his innocence by evidence satisfactory to the
Register that he has not been guilty of number
of specified acts during series of years. one of
which is that he did not sympathize with the rebel
lion If he fails to establish this, he cannot regis
ter his oath to the contrary Notwithstanding un-
less he voted for The present constitution If the
Register is satisfied, or thinks he ought not be re-
gistered and before being allowed to register, he
must subscribe to an oath setting forth that he
cepts civil and political equality of all men, and
agrees not to attempt to make any changes. Ten
days before the election the Boards of Registration
meet in each county, with power, upon their own
knowledge or information, to strike from the list
of names voters whom they consider disqualified
by registration. The courts have forbidden the
issue of any mandamus or other process to the
Registers.
