BEFORE AND AFTER.

Before the radical judicial convention
was held, 20 nominate a candidate for prose
cutting attorney, the Geneseo ReDabiic rad
ical paper, said:
s.The people oil this country hare had about
enough of G. G. Wilson. and he has made enough
out Of the Office, not only to set up bank in he-
vance, but to retire. When Wilson was elected
in ls64 be wasn't worth hardly q continental,
now he is rich. The sentiment is general snd
strong that he shoGld be allowed to go into pri-
waite life, and that an honest man should be pro-
NOTED 70 the place"
After the convention met and nominated
Wilson, for reelection the same paper said
aMr. Wilson has filed the Office Of prosecuting
attorney for this district, composed of Henry and
Rock Island counties, with marked ability, and
TO the entire satisfaction Of the people. His po-
siton st the bar is second 20 that Of no lawyer in
the district; and a. far as the duties Of his Of
fea are concerned, he has brought 20 their dis
charge industry, energy, ss;rness, and good
stock Of practical common sense. While he Is
an excellent Is=ysS. professional pride does not
lead him TO 5verstep the bounds of jastiee and
propriety = the discharge Of his duties IS prose
cutor: but on the other hand his aim Il % deal
fairly and right with III.
aMr. Wilson, of course, will be elected by q
handsome majority
Thus it can be seen that editorials about
the same man, before and after his nomina-
ton, have a very different tone.

wouldn't il be well now for the radical
,.,ers 20 preach O few more sermons on
fplantation manners" in congress? The ex
cIusion of southern representatives has moi
quite made all the rest gentlemen. Oar ex-
changes are generally discussing the recent
disgraceful scenes in the house between
those radical blackgnards, Washburne ana
Donnelly, which have excited The disgust
and indignation of the country. The radi-
cal papers think il unfortunate just at the
present; it may be that but il is something
more in the eyes of the people. The voeab-
ularv Of these radical brethren reveals the
.rue character of their sentiments. These
are the elevated Legislators TO whom the
country 10 told 10 look for safety. Men could
not be picked from our prisons, who could
hurl fouler epithets at one another's heads.
Fine men these to bring q separate charge
of impeachment against the President, based
On alleged improprietes Of speech This
radical congress has become nuisance in
The eyes Of all men, and should be absted
forthwith BY the people it outrages every

THE REIGN OF TERROR.

Those who remember the mad passion:
which swayed portion of the ruling party
during the war, can see that the same spiri,
OF prescription which governed that aei
then, governs them now. They have learned
nothing, by age or experience. The spiri,
which set on Jim Beardsley and his gang
of cowardly rufians to mob editors, arrest
old men, and drive women out of town, still
actuates them, and seeks to control courts
and juries. Despairing Of their power to
remove the President by fair means, they
are resorting to the influence of intinida-
ton, personal abuse, delay and intrigue to
effect their purpose. Those senators who
have the courage and the conscience to dis.
charge their duties according to their sense
of obligation TO their oaths and their coun-
try, are assaiied and illuminated by class
of demagogues whose souls and bodies can
be bought for less than thirty pieces of ST.
yer. The failure of the impeachers to com.
pei unhesitating obedience to their dictation
has filed them with wrath and inspired them
with. desire for revenge upon all who re-
fuse to bow to their win. The people are
watching their movements, and win hold
them to an account II viii be difficult for
Them to answer, for the eutrages they COM

Henry county delegation vas instructed to vote

caucus, having complied as they sontended, with
the instructions, but went into convention and

The Free Bridge.

From the Davenport True Radical
off We see fox's tail sticking opt Of hole,
we naturally suppose fox to be there"
Considerable excitemenf--Eot before it
was wsnted-hss been aroused in Rock Is
land and Davenport on the question of the
opposition to the government grant for a
free bridge over the river at this point. A
public meeting was held in the Burtis ope-
IA house which has been fully reported in
the daily papers, aud which very Justly gave
a strong opinion on the mean, selfish and uri.
manly opposition made to this grant by par
ties who think that their private interests are
paramount TO all others, and that personal
ACKNOWLEDGMENT should stand before a great
public good.
IL Is fair criterion Of the honor and hon
esty Of a public body when one firm possess
ed of large funds can control il to the per
petuation Of a monopoly and the obstruction
of general blessing. Two states and a
million people are 10 be rendered tai payers
to a one-horse monopoly, because il has a
few thousand of dollars to sweeten con
gress. But this cannot last. The mill Of
God grinds slowly, but it grinds sure. and the
selfish greed of few men who pocket their
ppgedly gains in spite of the scorn of the
people, will find that indignation will de.
stroy them, and that their patriotic efforts 70
perpetuate their own fortunes will only de.
plenish their purses without gaining the de-
sired end
The bridge is necessity and will be had,
and the money-grubbing ours will find some
fine morning that their monopoly is blown

We sincerely hope that the republican party
in congress will see 60 it that in the admission
of the reconstructed states ready 10 come in
the absurd, and in many cases, the wicked ties:
oaths that have been incorporated into the new
constitution by the zeal or fear of those who made
them, stricken out. The states being once in
the Union, each under an organic law that suf-
fciently insures the freedom Of the black race,
there seams 70 be little need Of desiring the ex-
