Recognizing the Mistake.

The Washington correspondent CT the
Chicago Times, in noticing the feeling in
relation to the failure of Impeachment in
that city says:
But it was reserved for me to-day to
listen, in the presence OF several other
gentlemen, to the following remark by one
of Grants strongest supporters in the
house, who voted in favor of the impeach-
ment: We made big mistake" said
this gentleman, 'and we've been taught a
lessons good ole. For my part, I'd
rather see men of the cast of Pitt Fessen-
den, s. p. Chase and Lyman Trumbul
at the head Of the republican party during
the next campaign than to oust dozen
Johnsons. We've been going ahead toe
fast. We need steady engineers from
now to November, or the whole party will
go utterly to the dogs am a radical ,bu,

Why did the impeachment managers

If you let u mere locker on at the trial

were not all equal to the business. Its

as co-conspiring body, with Masonic

to its independence and self respect, re-

If Not, Why Not Z

Some time ago a sensible republican
mechanic, meeting brother mechanic,
said:
My friend, if 1 owed you a debt, and Of
fered you its amount in greenbacks, would
you call it " reputation ?" Or, if L of.
fered you in return the same kind OF mon.

The other could pick no flaw in the rea-
soning, and admitted that his intelligent
friend was right. The radical bondholders
with Ben. Wade at their head assert that
greeubacks are good enough for the peo-
pie in the transaction of their ordinary
business good enough to give and receive
in payment for lands, tenementS and labor,
but not good enough to redeem the bonds
Greenbacks were good enough to give in
payment for United States bonds, but we
are told it is sheer impudence and repudi-
alton to talk Of redeeming them in the
same currency. To repay in greenbacks
is crime so great that Ben. Wade says it
is not only "repudiation," but the advo-
Gates of it are penitentiary birds. y
