The VOLCANO MANo LoA, one of
the Sandwich Islands, is nearly $4,000
feet high and has numerous craters. 1t
is always smoking, but its fires burn
periodically with vastly intensified fierce
ness. Its chief crater, Called Kllanca,
is over three miles by two wide, and
more than one thousand feet in depth.
1t is a gulf of liquid fire. In 184l, it
over1owed, and in one night discharged
fifteen. million cubic feet. of lava. In
1855 furious eruption began, lasting
thirteen months, pouring out lava over
space estimated at 800 square miles.
Again iii 1850, all eruption opened three
new craters, 'one cf which slot up col
of lava to the heigth of nearly hundred
feet. The lava, Oh reaching the ground
again ran through subterranean passage
and poured like cataract down preci-
pice Of fifty feet, flowing thence across
the eonntry, until it reached the sea.
Several shocks o: earthquake aecompa-
MED this eruption.
The Cincinnati Commercial, Notwithstanding
its conservative tendencies hesitates not to tell
the following truth of the state of Southern SC
ciety:
There are certain facts which must
be accepted by the People Of the North,
and upon these they must base I'll future
action. They are as follows:
l. The white people will not work.
D. The blacks do not display very
great amount of industry, though in this
respect they are superior to the 'domi-
nant race
3. The chief occupation OF all these is
politics.
4. An inveterase enmity exists between
the whites and blacks, and they will not
affiliate to an extent greater than is ab-
solutely necessary.
5. Every man here wants every one
else to work for him, and the chief study
Of all classes is how to live at some other
mans expense.
g. However chivalrons the Southern
people may be, tlsir chivafry does not
prevent them from begging aims from
the Northern people they profess not
only to hate but to despise.
These are the facts which must be
accepted, and, altogether, then it would
be well to act from the standpoint they
iorm."

The REAL ISSUE in the Impeachment
trial, says the Tribune is, didtheP President
attempt to appoint Gen. Thomas to an Of
flee without the advice and. consent of
the Senate, in violation oftke Constitu91
of the United States and did he at
tempt to remove Secretary Stanton in
disobedience of the Tenure of Office law?
This is the issue for whiekjthe House Of
Representatives impeathed the Presi-
dent, and on which he is placed on trial
1t is not his,speeehes, made while "swing-
ing around the circle" for the House
lad once refused to impeach him for
those, and the recollection of them had
nearly faded from the public mind. 1t
is not the fact that he attempted, or in
tended, to use force in removing Stanton,
and appointing Thomas for whatever
the President has the right to do at all,
he has the right to employ all the mil
ltary and naval force of the United
States to aid him in doing. His impeach-
ment was based upon the two unlawful
acts OF removing Stanton and appoint
ing Thomas. If the Senate would not
remove hin'ter these, they would not
remove him though he should attemot
to turn the Senate itself out of doors
For 1t is certainly less ofense to tnrn
the Senators individually -ont Of the Cap
itol than to deprive the Senate as leg
islatiye body of its constitute on fnnc-
tions, by nullifying the laws of Congress
ana overriding the right of the Senate
to share in the appointment and removal
of the officers of the Government.

CoNNECTIcUT SENAToR.-We are glad to
hear that the Connecticut legislature will go
into the election of L. S. Senator to fill the
place to be f1iade vacant by the expiring term
of Senator Dixon, on the 4th of March next
The chances are thought to be rather in favor
IF ex-Gov. Buckingham, with eX-Gov. Hawlcy
as a competitor. Dixon is of rather light
weight, besides being a renegade and apostate,
and: therefore, on several accountsi if not merit
ing contempt, certainly not entitled to respect
An apostacy from the better to the worse, from
Hight to darkness, partakes of the ineXcusaDlc
and culpable apostacy of the old devil himself,
and the honorable place go unworthlly occu-
by this Mr.. Dixon, has been source OF very
great discomfort, and we hail the prospect OF
getting rid of him, and the prospect OF seeing
that tlessedlittl state Represented by a brace
of such Senators as Ferry and Buckingham.
THE New REvUNE LAw.-Gen Schenck,
Chairman of the Ways and Means Committee,
presented the new revenue law to the House
ON Monday, and it is to be called up next week
if the motion 10 adjourn over the Chicago
Convention is rescinded. One important fea-
turc of the bill is that it makes the Revenue
Bureau Department of the Government, and
not merely wing Of the Treasury: The Com
missioner who presides is to have the sole pow
er ofappointing, independent both Of the Presi-
ident and Senate This provision if adoped,
may effect some needed reforms, as the vast
corruption now prevailing in connection with
the revenues, is directly tracableto the Prcsi-
dent and the Treasury. Revenue agents and
inspectors are wisely dispensed with, and the
entire control Of the business placed in the
hands Of collectors and ;sscssors. Among the
taxes imposed, the following afc most ffnpor-
tant; the tobacco tax is unchangcd on ci-
gars ten dollars a thousand. Stamp duty on
ale and beer unchanged. Tie provisions for
preventing frauds in evading tie whisky tax
are also reconstructed.

A very excellent address was de.
livered by Col. r. A. Fair, before the
Democratic Club of this place, on
last Saturday evening. It was ad-
dressed principally to the colored
members, and was designed to expose
the false philanthropy of the s'car-
pet-oaggers' and ''scalawags,". who
are carrying out their own, selfish
purposes at the expense of the de.
luded blacks-fit representatives of
that pions crew of early abolitionists
who sold their slaves, pocketed the
proceeds, and then joined in d holy
crusade against the institution. The

A Texas Plan for the aRadicaIs te
Control the South. -.

On yesterday both Houses of Con-
gress were regaled by the reading of
a most extraordinary document for
warded by telegraph from Austin,
Texas, by authority of the Recon
struction Convention, now in session
at that place. It comprises series
of resolutions, which set forth that
greatlawlessness is prevalent through
out the State; that law-abiding and
"loyal" citizens are persecuted, and
winds up by asking Congress to give
the Convention power to organize a
military force in every County, for
the purpose Of preventing the com.
mission of the wrongs complained of.
A more audacious request was never
put with greater GOODNESS before.
That there arc numerous lawless men
in Texas, we have not the slightest
doubt; indeed, that State has always
been noted for the possession of bands
of scoundrels who respect neither life,
person nor property. But the whole
animus of the Convention is apparent
in the attempt to make it appear that
Union men are being murdered by
ex-rebels. This is an old and worm
out cry, and the effort to organize an
army of radicals, is no new plot. It
has been successfully carried out in
Tennessee, under Parson Brownlow,
and nearly eighteen months ago q
movement took place in Texas, look
ing to the same end. The secret of
the resolutions which have been
transmitted to Congress, is that the
radicals desire to organize an armed
political mob, by means of which
they can obtain permanent posses
sion of the State. This very Recon
struction Convention is the elected of
a decided minority of all the regis
tered voters in Texas, and when it
has completed its work, the probabili-
ties are in favor of victory for the
conservatives at the election for State
officers. Hence the anxiety for q
convention army to control the polls.
We think that the wretched condi-
ton of Tennessee to-day, under
Brown!ow and his State army, is
sufficient warming against extending
the policy Of repression to Texas.
We hope that there is yet remaining
in Congress, sufficient decency and
respect for the opinions of the entire
people of the country. to influence
the radical members thereof to reject
the petition. The threat of the Con
yention, that in the event of Congress
sional authority being denied, the
radicals will take the matter into
their own hands, is significant in
dication of the lawless character of
these selfstyled ''loyal'' men of
Texas. 1t is direct threat to plunge
the State into condition of anarchy
and bloodshed. .-Neao York Herald.

SPECIAL NOTICES.
a FEW WORDS TO THE LADIES


Many ladies, particularly mothers nursing,
complain of tired, listless feeling, or
complete exhaustion, on arising in the
morning. On the wife and mother de-
wolves the responsibility of regulating the
duties of the household. Her cares are
numerous, and the mental as we'll as
physical powers are frequently called into
requisition. She often finds her slightest
occupation weary task and existence a
burden, while at the same time che has no
regular disease. HOSTETTER'S STO-
MACH BITTERS, If resorted to Mt this
period, will prove an unfailing remedy for
this annoying lassitude. The effects of
this pOtentag are soon seen in the rosy
cheek and elastic step Of the head Of the
family, as with restored health and re-
newed spirits she takes her accustomed
place in the family circle. If this friend in
need be regularly used, those depressing
symptoms will never be complained of. and
not only would lassitude not bo expe-
rienced, but many diseases following it's
advent be, avoided. AS a MEDICAL
AGENT, it has no equal, while it's pleasing
flavor and healthful effects have made it q
general favorite. 1t is free from all pro-
perties calculated to impair the system,
and its operations are at once mild, sooth-
ing and efficient. All who have used the
Bitters attest its virtues and commend it
TO use. June t6
