NEW HAMPSHIRE ELECTION.
Great Union Victory.

The election in New Hampshire
was locked forward to, by every one,
to strike the key note of the Presi-
dental contest of 1868, and the re
suit will cheer and stimulate every
loyal heart in the country. The
people when aroused are still true TO
their antecedents-to the Union ana
its fag-and we may expect the wave
of Union success to roll westward
and all over the land, and only cease
until the gladstone news is shouted
from every hill and valley in the
country-GRANT is President and the
Union is saved!
The Republicans of New Hamp-
shire have done glorious work
they have elected their entire State
ticket by majority equal to that of
last year, and have secured both
branches of the Legislature-the
Senate by three to one, and the
House by two to one.
Let Union men take courage; and
with "Grant and the Union for their
battle cry, press on to the accom-
plishment of the great work before
them. Success is certain.

The Impeachment.

Our Washington news contains
pretty full accounts of the proceed
ings of the Court of impeachment on
Friday last, when the President, by
his counsel, appeared in answer to
the summons of the Senate. He was
given until Monday next to prepare
his case, after which, it is expected,
there will be but little further delay
There Is considerable speculation as
to the probable time that will be oc-
cupied in the trial. The friends of
Mr.. johnson hope to extend it into
the Summer months, but others, we'll
informed, predict that the trial will
be entirely over on or about the first
of May. 1t should be as speedy and
short as is consistent with the inter
ests of justice.
As to the result, there can be but
one opinion among impartial judges
Having been guilty of mary and
plain violations of the Constitution
and the laws, he must be made to
suffer the penalties annexed thereto.

Democratic Consistency,

The Ohio Senate, in order to make
an apology for rejecting the visible
admixture" vote, cast for Jones, was
compelled to declare they were not
bound by any rules or decisions of
courts; in fact, they were an all pow
erful body, amenable to none, and
with a perfect right to disregard the
constitution of Ohio.
But Jones presented evidence
showing "a illegal votes cast for On
derdonk, which, with his ten MAORI
ty, SO clearly elected him, that not
even AZ "visible admixtures'' would
give the latter gentleman his seat
But the objection was raised that the
notice under which this testimony
was taken was served on Onderdonk
and not on the nominal contestors.
The Senate with wonderful facility
faced about, and decided that they
were bound by this mere legal quib.
BILE, and must reject the evidence
BY this strict adherence to the rules
and decisions Of courts, Is illegal votes
cast for Onderdonk in Gallia county,
and 6 in Meigs, were not considered.
This evidence was thrown out, al
though in fact, Onderdonk was open
ly contesting the election, having, as
the minority report shows, attended
at the taking of this evidence in Gal
liza county, questioned witnesses, OBJ
jected to questions, consented to ad-
journm ents, during all the time ex-
cept one day, when an attorney ap
peared. The minority report further
shows that Mr. Onderdonk appeared
at the bar of the Senate, as confession.
was admitted to seat on the floor of
the Senate, and was supplied with
stationery, DC, as contestor. Against
all these facts, the Senate decided
they were bound by this slight mis-.
take, and rejected the evidence
The whole thing was deliberate plot
on the part of the Senate to Gust a
duly elected Senator, as perusal of
the majority and minority reports of
the committee will show. We hope
the Union Central Committee of this
county will widely distribute both of
these reports. the Democratic as well
as the Republican, for the former will
prove the best campaign document
the Union party can issue.

@The rebel democracy of Wash
ington city, felt SO sure of securing
victory in New Hampshire, that
they had prepared every thing for a
regular democratic yell on the night
of the election--powder, whiskey,
speakers, whiskey, torches, whiskey,
music, whlskey, &c. But they were
sorely tried-New Hampshire went
Unien. They propose to keep every.
thing, except the Uhiskey, (?) until
the Kentucky election comes off, as
that is the only State which they
now look upon as certain for the

an answer a week from sto-day, the
twentieth. II was carried by four
majority, a number of Republicans be-
ing absent. Afterwards it was urged
that little could be gained by beginning
so late in the week and the vote was re-
considered by two majority in order to
change to day earlier in the week.
Opinion then was somewhat divided
between Monday. the esd and We'd
nesday, the 95th, the proposition for
the latter day was, after short debate
withdrawn, and Monday, the Esd, fixed
by nearly the entire Republican vote.
At ten minutes after four, the Senate
returned to the Chamber The Mana
gers, who had also been in consultation,
and the counsel for the defense, who
had retired to private room, had pre-
ceded the Senate. Chief Justice Chase
announced the decision reached, when
Mr.. Bingham, on the part of the Mana.
gers, moved that the trial be ordered to
begin Immediately after the Managers
should file an answer to the Presidents
response.
The vote on Bingham's motion was,
ayes 25, nays &c.
Mr. Wade did not vote; he was pres
ent throughout. On the contrary, Mr..
Patterson, ofTennessee, the Presidents
son-in-law, voted in all cases. Mr..
Sherman, of Ohio. next made the prop
osition that the trial should Degin on
the 9th of April. Mr.. Wilson, of
Mass, wanted to fix it the 5th of April,
but subsequently withdrew to allow
the proposition OF Senator Conkling to
be entertained, that unless the Senate
should order otherwise for cause shown,
the trial should proceed whenever the
Managers should respond to the Presi-
dents answer
The proposition of Senator Conkling
passed by party vote. with the ad-
dition of Mr.. Van Winkle, of West Yir-
ginia, the vote standing 40 to 1O.-
With this result, the Republicans are
well pleased, and the misgivings which
some felt during the earlier part of the
day, have entirely disappeared this
evening, and a general confidence and
prevails.

sw The New York democrats he'll

w The New York democrats held
their State convention on the 11th.-
The great feature of the occasion was a
strong speech by ex-Gov. SEYMOUR
against the greenback policy of the
Western democracy. Of this speech
the Gin. Gazette says:
"Mr. Seymour declared it a duty of
the New York Democracy to plainly
lay down their opinion on this subject,
that the Western Democracy may
know what they are coming to, and
may have no reason for charging them
with any responsibility for the division,
which he plainly intimates will come, if
the Western Democrats go on in the
scheme to debase the currency. 1t is
plain declaration that when this wind
of greenback initiation strikes the New
York Democracy, it will strike rock
upon which it will split. He declares
plainly that New York must be the
very foundation of any prospect of
any Democratic success, and that the
New York Democracy will repudiate
this greenback dodge. This frank dec
laration was applauded."
In order to show the tenor, as well as
the Importance, of this speech, we
make short extract, to-wit:
at is mistake to suppose the in
terests of the ibondholders and tax
payers are antagonistic. The fact is
overlooked that, in order to make any
saving by giving the bondholder
worthless paper, we would spring upon
ourselves disaster and dishonor, which
will cost hundred fold what we can
save. 1t means that we are to give to
the laborer for his toll worthless cur
rency; that our business shall be kept
in uncertainty and confusion; that the
laboring man shall suffer by the in
creased cost of the comforts of life; and
that the taxpayers shall be burdened
by government proved to be corrupt
and imbecile by this very depreciation
of its currency. We can't afford to
speculate upon the nations honor at so
fearful cost"
Ifthe editor of the Dispatch were to
read that, unknowing from whence it
came, he would swear it was the full
limitations of some '.bond holder or
.smongrel.'' 4sea

according to the editor of the Dis
patch, is that which makes noble and
praise worthy the deeds of the rebels
during the war-at Andersonville, at
Fort Pillow, at Belle Isle, and else
where on land, and of the pirate
Semms on the high seas. This ex-
plains what is meant by the term
"white mans party'--it is the rebel
party--those who think that the reb-

try than the Union soldiers. That
is the meaning of the term-"white

If he votes upon the question, there

A New Road Law.

Inc Onl0 Legislature naS repeaieu
the Road law of 1867, and enacted
new one, similar IN its provisions to
the one upon the statute book pre-
vious to the enactment of last winter.
We are under obligations to our
member, JOHN LAWSON, Esq, for a
copy. The new law took effect
March 9 1868.
The first section provides for the
districting of the several townships,
by the Trustees thereof, into suitable
road districts. For the year 1868,
this duty is to be performed on the
third Monday of March-subsequent
years on the first Monday of March.
Section second provides for the
election of Supervisors enc for each
district, and no elector to vote for
more than one Supervisor-at the
annual election in April. II Super
visor refuses or neglects to qualify
and serve, he shall pay the sum of
five dollars and costs, to be collect
ed by the Trustees in an action of
debt.
All male persons, (this is not a
"white mans" law although a "white
mans" legislature passed it, as it
mixes white men and negroes indis-
criminately when it comes to work on
the road) between the ages of twen-
ty-one and fifty-five are liable annu
ally to perform two daye labor on
the highways, or in lieu thereof may
pay TO the Supervisor three dollars.
The work is to be done between the
first day of April and the first day of
September or November, as the
Trustees may direct. Persons per-
manently disabled in the military
service of the United States, and act
ing members of fire companies, are
exempt from road work.
Section seventeen provides for
levy, by the County Commissioners,
O. tax for road and bridge pur.
poses. In counties with the valus,
ton Of ours, the levy shall not be
less than seven tenths of mill nor
more than three mills. Such part of
said fund as the Commissioners may |
deem proper, may be set part for a
bridge fund, to be expended in the
building or repairing of bridges, or
both.
In addition to the above, the town
ship trustees may, if they shall deem
the same necessary, levy upon the
taxable property OF their respective
townships, further tax, not exceed
ing three mills on the dollar, and
shall certify the same to the county
on or before the first Mon
day in June. The amount set apart
by the Commissioners for road pur-
poses, and the amount levied by the
township Trustees, may be paid by
labor On the roads, or in cash to the
county Treasurer, at the option of the
taxpayer.
These are the most importan
features of the law, and are all that
it is necessary for US to state at this
lime, in order that it may have ef-
Fective force immediately, as its fra
ners intended.
Auditor EVANS has received copies
of the law in pamphlet form, for dis
,ribution to township Trustees. ,
