The Radicals in their anxiety to get
control Of the Presidential Office do not
seem to have the discretion to conceal
the object, and they are willing 10 ac-
coInplsh the object by any means they
can command For instance, the New
York Tribune insists that the Senate
shall turn President johnson out of of
fee, not that he is guilty Of any crime
deserving such punishment, but simply
because he is dangerous man. The
danger, it should be understood, consists
in the injury he may do the Radical
party, not the country. The Springfield
Mass Republican frankly confesses the
reason why the President should be res
moved. In its issue of the both inst that
paper says:
"Qur private adyices sustain the iudg-
ment that conviction ia inevitable-fot SO
much from a feeling Of the President
technical guilt or innocence on this or that
charge, as from the feeling that it is a ne
eessily of the political condition of the
country"
Early in the trial the New York Times,
moderate Republican journal, said
1T is urged with great deal of emphasis
in certain quarters that the removal OF
the President is absolutely essential to
the success Of the Republican party in
the coming election" And now ne have
one Of the leading Republican journals
in New England confessing that the re-
moval of the President is deemed "a
necessity of the political condition of the
country" 1t was foreseen from the in.
ception of the Impeachment movement
that the conviction and removal of the
President would be demanded of the
Senate by the Radical party upon the
grounds OF party necessity alone. The
friends of the President have fell
and still feel that he has nothing
| to fear if the Senate shall decide
the matter of Impeachment upon the
law and the testimony. 1t il
clear that this will not be done if the
Radical party can bring such influence
to bear upon the Radical Senators al
shall induce them to lay the law and ties.
timony aside and judge the President ac-
cording to their political predictions
From the commencement of this trial
and even ante -dating that period, a con-
centrated effort has been directed to in.
duce the Radical Senators to agree to the
removal of the President, in the hope that
by getting control Of the patronage OF
the government, that party would secure
the election of its candidate in the com.
ing Presidential election. If the Radical
party shall succeed IN this nefarious
scheme, they will have placed this gov
eminent upon the highway which Mexico
has travelled for half century.

One Of the most decisive and signifi~

that in the city Of Chicago on Tuesday
IL was municipal election, and in
these, local and uon-political causes fire.
quently operate TO the result But the
Radicals confident ia their strength to
carry the election by a majority Of 1000,
took pains TO exclude merely local Ques-
tons from the contest, and vauntinglv
placed the struggle on the strength of
their party. They nominated pronounced
partisans, and canvassed for them as
such, and in invoking the popularity Of
Grant to aid them, they put it to the test.
The Democrats placed men Of their faith
and Of unquestionsd adherence to their
party organization in the field The re-
suit is the election Of the general Demo-
cratic ticket by nearly 500 majority.

ten years, and on the eve Of a Presiden'

New ORLEANS, April PA grand Ma
sonic procession took place to-day, the oc-
casion being the conservation Of the Ma
sonic cemetery. All the grand officers Of
the State were present.
Further returns increase the majority in
the parish for the Constitution. 1t will be
some days before the result will be officially
promulgated. The Constitution is ratified,
and the Radical State ticket elected beyond
doubt. The Republican says the seat of
Mann, the Democratic member elect from
the LIST district, will be contested by the de-
feated Republican candidate. Frauds are
charged on the Radicals, and case is cited
of precinct in the city where over 1000
votes were polled-more than those regis
tered. One of the Registrars officially re-
ports to the commanding General that one
ballot-box bears marks Of violence, and
shows conclusiyely that it has been tam

EIrCTIoN POsTPONEn.

1t was announced yesterday that Cow
ernor Brownlow has postponed the elec-
ton for Congressman from the State at
large, until the regular election in No
yember This is said to have been done
at the request Of the three Radical can
didates who are now in Knoxville. The
Radicals in Memphis had previously
made an effort to get the Governor to
POSTPONE the election to some future day,
but he refused What arguments the
Radical candidates used to persuade the
Governor that the interests Of the party
demanded this postponement are not
known to the public Perhaps each one
Of the candidates was afraid Of the 9TH
ers, but we're so bent upon running for
Office that neither would get out Of the
way, and so the postponement became
necessity 10 settle this little matter for
the present Its well enough that this
farce was thus nipped in the bad.

THE New York Times notices the
impertinence of Forney after. this fash
ion
eve hope the members of the United
States Senate enjoy the lectures read to
them Segularly twice day by their Clerk,
in his two newspapers. They may seem
occasionally little vehement, and even
insolent but it is probably one of the per-
quisites of his position to be insolent and
perenptory, whenever the occasion may
seem to require it. He warned them on
Friday that to doubt that they will vote to
convict the President would be treason to
representative government" and that a
vote against conviction would "blast with
infamy" the Senator who should give it.
Whether bullying the Senate which elects
him is among the duties of the Clerk
ship which Col. Forney fills we are not
aware. We presume, however, that he is
INDUCED in the practice, rather because it
is pleasing to Senators to be bullied, than
because it is his duty"
