in the south. called by the euphonioss name
of 'Ku-Klux Khan" The amount of ink
wasted on the subject is immense; but, after

The morality among children is said to
be unprecedented this spring in San Fran
cisco.
This trouble has not yet reached McGre-
gor. If the second word had another in
it, there would be some chance for talk on
our part. Mortality some times hurts us
but morality never.

Gen. Sherman

Cen. sherman
We call most special attention to this
extract from the Chicago Times CORE
spondentat Washington. Gen. Sherman's
recent testimony in the impeachment case
and the contempt whi,h he showed the
Managing malignants leads us to con-
clude that "Old Tccumseh" has given them
piece of his mind. :.
ut is well known that Gen. Sherman is
indignant at the prospect of an unjust and
partizan conviction Of the president. He
says that, if Mr.. johnson is uniustly con-
victed, he iShcrlnan) will appeal to the
people Of the United States against the
finding Of the Senate; that he will himself,
if necessary, be the standard bearer of the
party opposed to such conviction, no mat.
ter who may be the standard bearer on the
other side; and that he will agree to stump
the country on the question This threat,
delivered with the generals accustomed
and well-known vehemeneo ofmanner has
greatly alarmed the radicals, and there
was good deal Of huttering in their camp
last evening, in consequence"
ut is well understood here that Grant
ana his immediate friends and clique are
strongly in favor of the conviction of the
president Indeed, it is given out that, if
the president is not convicted, Gen. Grant
will not be a presidential candidate 1t
looks, then, us if the giving out by Grant,
and even by the members of his family,
that he is backing down as respects the
presidential race, are mere ruse, in order
to insure the presidents conviction. Gree
ley's statement made before the Connecti-
cut election, that Gen. Grant considered
the conviction of the president political
necessity, was doubtless received from
Grants own lips. The radicals consider
that their triumph in the coming election
is bound up in the conviction of the presi-
dent; that, if conviction fail before the
senate, they will fail before the people.
Consequently the strength of the party
pressure in favor of conviction may be
Judged of from this fact.'
