OuR ONWARD MARcH-Whocver
may visit tie border settlements OF the
West, expecting to find there smaller
proportional share Of cultivated intellect
than in the crowded centres Of eivillza-
ton, will be strikingly disappointed. The
brain as well as the Drawn Of the nation
gravitates in that direction, aud hence the
rapid dovalopement Of the resources OF
nature in the Western wilderness, which
amazes the Europeans, and almost makes
us wonder at ourselves. Energies
which are cramped by the routine OF city
life, and fettered by the class distinctions
which exist in densely populated districts,
find full scope there. The Star Of En-
pira that Westward takes its way, is fol
lowed, like the Star Of Bethlehem, by the
wise men of the Age, aud it is by bring
inc their knowledge to bear upon tie
capabilities Of a region where the Creator
has stored Ill the material clements Of
wealth and progress, that the wilderness
is made to ''blossom as the rose The
pen Of history cannot keep pace with
our pioneers. Civilization sweeps over
the waste places like prairie fire; and
towns and cities spring up faster than
the map makers can jot them down on
their charts.

Brownlow and the Kuklux.

The illumination of Brownlow through
the Knoxville Wing, in which he incites
to mob violence the secret Union Leaguers
is condemned by all the respectable Re-
publican journals of the North, such as
the New York Times and Cincinnati Com
meroial, for instance. They say that to
incite one irresponsible organization to
violence against another, is to initiate dis
order and mobs, and leads to civil war
such a thing cannot be done by good man
nor by any Governor not 3 demon. Let
the streets of Nashville, Knoxville and
Memphis run red with the blood of their
wickedly disfranchised people, and Brown
low will lick his lips and exult like ghoul.
There is no harm in thefts, robberiss, rapes,
arson and murder by Loyal Leaguers But
let single hair OF lock of wool of one of
the murderous tends be touched and the
msdmsn, who governs Tennessee by the
snczampled f0r5earance of its citizens, at
once let's slip his dogs of war and pro.
claims as Governor, by his advice to MUIR
der, that he will pardon and deliver from
all exaotions of justice every murderer of a
Conservative in Tennessee In all seri-
business, we ask, is not something to be
done in such state of things as this ? If
there is no secret organization for the pur-
pose OF self protection it may be time to
ask whether there ought not to be an or
ganization, secret or public. We are free
to say We think so. Men have been fire. =.
quently sent to jails and penitentiaries and
hanged foP murders and other crimes. But
we are unable to name any one of them all
whose crime was equal to that of their Gov
ernor, or against whom the same essential
ingredient of malice could be so conclusive
ly established.-M Memphis Ledger.

Cheer Enough For One Dav.


The elections Of Monday were timely, as
calculated to cheer those who. staggered
by the impeachment outrage, seemed to
have lost all faith in the reaction Inaugural
ted last fall.
Connecticut has gone Democratic by an
increased majority.
The Negro Suffrage Constitution Of
Michigan is defeated by an overwhelming
neutrality-suspicious. 10000 votes.
Cincinnati, with three tickets 10 the field as
usual, elects the Democratic slate with two
exceptions. Last year it vas the working
mans ticket that won. This year the
Democratic leads.
Toledo. Ohio, decreases her Republican
maj ority 283 votes since October.
Iowa reports Democratic victory in Ke-
okuk, carried last year by the Republicans.
Even bleeding" Kansas comes to the
rescue. Atchison elects a Democratic
Mayor and Lawrence, a regular mudhole
of abOlitionisn, polls ga pretty large vote"
for the Democratic ticket, and this is only
the second time that Democrats ever con-
| tested an election there.

Col. st. Leger Grenfel-His Escape.

COL st. Leger Grenfel-H1s Escape.
The telegraph informs as of the escape
Of Col. st. George Leger Grenfel from his
place of imprisonment on the Dry Tortugas.
We are heartily glad that this bold and
rough rider has thus once again become a
freeman. He is a most singular man.
Born of aristooratic parentage, he entered
the British army, and distinguished him
selfin several campaigns. He was through
the warfare in India, the Crimeau and Dan
ish Schleswig- Holstein disturbances. In
each Of these he distinguished himself, re-
oeiving honorable wounds.
At the inception of our domestic troub-
les, seeming the bsttls afar of, he Joined
the troops under the leadership of General
John H. Morgan. His great military knowl-
edge and experience made HIM at once "a
vorits in the command, and his keen leader
placed him in the position of Adiutant to
his force.
During MOrgan's first daring raid into
Kentucky, st. Leger Grenfel was especially
useful. In the attack on Cynthiana, in
1859, at the head of the I'd Kentucky, with
Col. Jas. w. Bowles, of this city, he led a
charge which, for dauntIess courage, has
never been equaled. We are glad that the
gay, proud, noble old Britisher is away
from prison bonds. There are other fields
where he may fight and win still greater
honOrs. Long may his red cap and flowing
sabresash fare in the forefront Of battle

Congregs.

In the Senate on the 9th, Mr.. Sumner in
troduced joint resolution proposing an
amendment to the Constitution of the Uni
ted States. The proposed amendment is
as follows No person elected as Presi-
dent or Vice President of the United
States, who has once served as President,
shall afterwards be eligible to either Office.
Referred to the Judiciary Committee.
In the House on the 9th, Mr.. Robinson
offered the following as privileged reso-
luton
RESOLVED, That the resolution ofimpeach-
ment against Andrew Johnson, passed Feb
ruary "a, 1863. and the proceedings amen
datory thereof, or supplemental thereto, be
and the same are hereby rescinded, and
that the managers be recalled.
The Speaker ruled the resolution not
privileged, because it was pending the mo-
ton on which the previous question had
been ordered, on the 31st of March, as to
printing forty thousand copies of Buffers
opening address, and no business was in
order, except by unanimous consent IN
til that was disposed of.
Mr.. Trumbull called up the bill in re-
gard to the qualification ofjurors. 1t pro-
vides that the expressing Of opinion found
ed on public rumors, or statements in pub
lie journals, shall not disqualify a juror
otherwise competent, and who shall take
oath that he can give verdict according
| to evidence.
The bill will allow Courts in the case of
Surratt and JEFF. Davis to summon jurors
from any State in the Union

Probable Chance for the Acquital Of the
President, &c.
Special to the Cincinnati Commercial.
WASHINGTON, Anril |


WAsHINGToE, April S.
At 8: 5 o'clock, Mr.. Butler announced
that the case was substantially closed on
the part of the House of Representatives.
This astouished a great many in the CALLER
les, who have been waiting all along for sv-
idence of criminslity in any of the Presi-
dents acts. It was expected that the pros
eoution would call General Thomas. They
summoned him, but declined to call him,
lest, on cross examination, It come out that
he had no authority to use or threaten vio-
ience. The defence will summon him to
prove this.
There is s general sense OF disapPoint-
ment at the weakness Of the case made out
by the prosecution, and the impression to-
night is that Gbs President can not possibly
be convicted on what has been proven not
witbstandiDg this, the Radicals are making
a strong and determined effort, and are US
ing all the influence they can bring TO bear
to stiffsn up the weak brethren.
The Presidents counsel are urged to in
lroduce testimony to prove this, but do not
deem it necessary. Mr.. Stanbery feels
very confident, and says that If it was an
ordinary case he would expect to be dis
missed without any defense, for want Of
/ proof of criminal intent.
