PoLITICAL.- The IndependeRt, of
last week, says: For years past we
have earnestly aud often advocated
Mr.. CHAsE's nomination to the Presi-
dency. The advocacy now ends" To
the course of its article, the Independ-
ept makes the following statements,
which are important if true:
6 short time ago we thought that
the greatest gift which this journal
could offer to the coming Chicago
Convention was Mr.. Chase's illustri-
Gus name We now have reason to
believe that Mr.. Chase would not ac-
cept the Republican nomination, even
if it were rendered. We have equal
reason to believe, also, that he would
accept tire Democratic nomination if
it could be rendered on platform not
inconsistent with his well.known
views of negro suffrage"
The Independent has been disap-
pointed in so many of its political
pets, that it ought to begin to distrust
It's own judgment in such matters.
But the Bourbon element SO largely
prevails in its composition that it
learns nothing by experience, and it is
just as dogmatic and egotistical in its
comments on men and measures as

sion. on the evening of the 21st of
February. 1868, on the following res
olUtion:
WHEREAS, The Senate have re-
ceived and considered the communi-
cation of the President, stating that
he had removed Edwin NJ Stanton.
Secretary of War, and had designated
the Adjutant General of the Army to

therefore
Resolved by the Senate Of the United
States, That under the Constitution
and laws of the United States the
President has no power to remove the
Secretary of War and designate any
other officer to perform rhe duties CT
that Office ad interim.
Those who voted in the affirmative

The Presidential Campaign of 1868
promises to be one of the most inter-
esting and exciting in the history of
the country. The issues to be dis
Cussed and determined by the people
are Of the greatest moment to the
peace and prosperity of the Nation.
It is highly important that the voters
be properly informed and thoroughly
posted on the political situation. The
most effective way to accomplish this
is to place in their hands sound and
reliable Republican newspaper.
In order to enable the active Union
men of Southern Indiana and Illinois
and Western Kentucky to secure for
the WEEKLY JOURNAL a wide
circulation in their respective neigh
bOrhoods, we have placed the terms

AS the Injunction of secrecy was
taken from this resolution, and the
yeas and nays aud absentees, or those
not voting, have been repeatedly,
though not always correctly publish
ed, we think the above may be relied
upon. The proceedings possess more
than historical importance. in view of
the fact that the resolution is the base
upon which the House articles Of inn
parchment may be said to. repOse.
But for the resolution, Mr.. Stanton
would undoubtedly have been forced
out of the War Department, and the
decision of the House, however posi-
tive, presenting articles Of impeach-
ment, would have been largely, if not
fatally. embarrassed in the trial.
The reader can now perceive that
when the sentence Of the Senate is
made good, viz: That under the Con-
StitutiOn and IdU1s Of the United States,
the President has 20 power to remove
the Secretary of War, and delegate
another officer to perform the duties
Of that Office cd interim, all those
who voted for the resolution of the
21st of February, are committed to
vote for his impeachment and re-
moval from Office. As Mr.. Bingham,
who will close for the people, will
make this resolution and the vote
Of the Senate upon it his main
points, and will claim that the i'm
parchment articles resulted from this
action of the Senate, the final judg-
ment is scarcely doubtful Phitadel-

THE weeping and wailing on the
part of the Confederate Democracy
because Congress did not adjourn and
march out in body to welcome Ser
geant BATES to the National Capital,
is most heart-rending. Some Of their
editors shed ink very copiously, and
refuse to be comforted. Their beha-
vior, under the circumstances, demon
strates that the whole thing was a
party dodge, and the cause of the
tears is that the amount Of political
profit does not correspond with the
capital invested
Sergeant BATES, from the time he
left Yieksburg, and all along his
route, was received and Toasted by
VIGOROUSLY disloyal men, the true
Unionists of the South having moth
ing to do with the matter. He was
entertained in towns and villages
where the flag he carried was the
only one ever unfolded to the breeze,
except those raised perchance by mil
itary officers of the Government. The
police at the Capitol lad not, in all
probability, heard how the Sergeant
had saved the country, and turned
him away because he did not comply
with the police regulations. The
Sergeant has not made Of himself as
great a man as WESTON, and his party
have not made any votes by his per-
