Manufacturing in Ashland.

Every city and town prospers il
proportion to the industry, economy
and spirit of It's inhabitants. The
fine location of Ashland, in the
midst of most fertile lands and
wealthy farmers, is indicative of 6
sprightly growth in the future. The
town is growing rapidly; and our
access, by rail road to market.
furnishes additional reasons why this
prosperity is likely to continue
We propose to examine briefly, the
most potent engine in aid of all
growing towns, we mean the manu-
facturies.

The PresIdent,s Defence:

The defence of the President, says
the Cleveland Herald, presented on
last. Monday, the 23d inst, in answer
to the Eleven Articles of Impeachment
preferred by the managers of the
House, shows that Nj. johnson intends
to die hard if at all. He denies in the
most emphatic terms each and every
allegation. He holds that his order re-
moving Secretary Stanton was not I'M
constitutional that Mr.. Stanton held
his position illegally; that, in appoint
ing Thomas, he wished to bring the
whole case into the Supreme Court;
that he did not conspire with Thomas
to get possession of the funds or proper
ty of the War Office; that he did not
endeavor to get Gen. Emory to disobey
the laws; that he was not correctly re-
ported in his speeches at Cleveland;
Philadelphia and st. Louis; in short,
that he is NOT GUILTY of any of the
charges. The lawyers for the President
then demanded thirty days to prepare
an answer to the replication which the
managers should make to the defence
of the President. After considerable
debate the Senate refused the thirty
days, and adjourned over until 10
o'clock yesterday, when the time to be
given will probably be determined.

The Spring Election

We trust that our Republican friends
throughout the County, realize the i'm
portance of carrying the spring cleo
tious in their various townships. The
result Of the spring elections, will, to
some extent, be hailed as the precursor
of those more important State and
National elections which are to take
place next fall. The enemy are fully
aware Of this fact, and are straining
every nerve to make as good a "show-
ing" as possible, on the 9th day of April
next. with a view TO making it tell in
their favor in the campaign that is to
follow. Therefore, let the caucus meet
ings be fully attended, and let good,
thorough Republicans be nominated
for the various local officers that are to
be filed, and see to it that there is 8
full vote polled for them on the day Of
election.

The Constitution as Regards
Impeachment.

The following are the provisions Of
the Constitution of the United States
relating to impeachment:
Article l. Sec. .. The House of
Representative shall choose their Spea-
ker and other officers, and shall have
the sole power of Impeachment.
ART. l. Sec. 3. The Senate shall
have sole power to try all impeach
ments. When sitting for that purpose
they shall be on oath or affirmation.
When the President of the United
States is tried, the ChiefJustice shall
preside, and no person shall be convict
ed without the concurrence of two
thirds of the members present. judy
ment in cases of impeachment shall
not extend further than to removal
from Office and disqualification to hold
and enjoy any Office of honor, trust OF
profit under the United States; but
the party shall nevertheless be liable
and subject to indictment, trial Judg-
ment, and punishment according to
law.
ART. IL. Sec. 4 The President, Vice
President, and all civil officers of the
United States shall be removed from
Office on impeachment for, and convic-
ton of, treason. bribery, or other high
crimes and misdemeanors.

ES-Judge Cation, an eminent Illinois
Democrat, having been requested to
run for Governor, has written q letter
declining the honor, and he improves
the occasion to lay out Mr.. PendIeton
as a presidential candidate as cold as a
wedge. He regards him as not only
unsound in his views but a dangerous
man-after Vallandigham, the worst in
the country. He warns the Democrat
ic party that their candidate, if they
wish for success, must have been on the
side of the Government and against
rebellion in favor Of an honest fulfill
ment of our financial engagements,
and personally unObjectionsble. Re
garding Mr.. Pendleton's course, he
says if it has been well adapted to Sc
cure the nomination lit is still better
adapted to insure defeat at the elec-
ton"
Western Reserve chronicle. [volume] (Warren, Ohio) 1855-1921, 1868-03-25

ES-That ii is the conviction of the in
telligent and sagacious men Of all parties
that impeachment is peace, is shown by
the total abstinence of excitement and
the tendency ofgold to decline in price,
it being about five per cent. lower than
when the impeachment resolutions
passed the House of Representatives.
1t is a fact that the early removal of
Mr.. johnson as a disturoer and OBJ
struction, is viewed with satisfaction /;
and the financial pendulum-ever SEN
sitive to the first adverse influence or
prospect-swings with q steadiness that
has not been seep for many months.
And the New Hampshire election also
has had a strengthening influence, and
contributed to produce confidence in
the future. These things bear but one
interpretation that the country is
satisfied to have the Government 60
into and remain in the hands of the
Republican party, and desires no
changes in this respect.

IA Recently, in a communication
on the subject, Mr.. Jay Cooke showed
that the United States bonds were held
mainly by the middle classes, and not
by the capitalists consequently any
depreciation would fall on somebody
else than the rich. In v%eriication of
this statement, in its application to
that part of the country, the Chicago
Post says:
Take our WI city as a partial answer
to the question, and see if the rich men
among US are heavy owners of these evI-
dences of debt. Mr.. Newberry, who runs
up into the millions, has not II bond to his
name-not one. Mr.. Ogden is barren
also. P. F. W. Peck is as guiltless of
bonds, as of sound lungs and high health.
Potter Palmer is a bacnelor, not in bonds
at all. Mr.. Scammon mas not, we are
told, a dollar in bonds in his own right.
DR.. Foster is in the same case; and, with
one exception IN the person of Mr.. Had
duck, none Of our rich men-we mean
men with large accumulated capital not
employed in their daily business-is a bond
holder. Of the wealthy business men, it
may be said that they never see q bond,
except in the way of trade, that is Is col
lateral security for debt.

ing of all bounties received from any

ance in scrip, bearing6 per cent. inter-
est, which is to be receivable only in
payment of public lands and not trans
ferable.

ches, cons ~tituting the Secretary of War,

passengers on those railroads not ex-
ceeding double the average rates on

lengthy and spirited discussion, but

B- There is evidently a counter
movement in the South among the
intelligent Confederates in favor Of
Grant and reconstruction. In an age
like this Destiny decides great issues
in a minute, and the men who have
been schooled in the stern lessons Of
wal far more apt to discard the shallow
rhapsodies of the peace politicians OF
the South who forced them into re,
bellion, and the new tenders of the
peace politicians of the North, who
promised them help and then fed to
their holes at the first signal of war,
than to be a second time cheated by
these detected charlstans.

The London Daig Negs, speaking

The London Daily Ns0s, speaking OF
the impeachment question, says:
1.-THE resolution undoubtedly marks
a serious crisis in the affairs of the Re
public, although the issue of the con-
test can hardly be doubtful. The Pres
ident, who has violated the law of the
land in attempting to displace the Sec
rotary of War, is not likely to sit still
under impeachment /; but no is with
out real power. Although a powerful
minority seeks 10 use him for its own
purposes, his capacity is to much dis
credited for any party to make his cause
its own, and he is to near the end Of
his term of office to make it worth
any ones while to stand or fall with
his political fortunes. Mr.. johnson;
however, will probably be the last man
in the Republic to discover this, and
in the meantime, to his binding ego
tism everything is possible"
