sacred gifts from the Father of US all, the assas-
sin and the aiders and abetters Of the assassin
must be denounced as the enemies of mankind.
A little more Indifference or a little more en-
couragement, and no man of independent mind
who thinks and gives expression to his thoughts
will be safe. The time has come when loud
and indignant protest should be made against
species of villany which is as cowardly as it
is brutal, as fruitless of good as it is base in
motive. 1t is fountain all whose waters
are impure, tree all whose fruit is bittor.

little arrangement OF both those well known operate
airs.

appropriate accompaniment. Why are not this great
composers works put forward more prominently by
our pubsherss
Pond Co. publish "Cradle Song" by zaidee
Mckay Warner which bears satisfactory evidence OF
the muscianly abilities Of the composer. There Is
much tenderness and delicacy In both music and
words and the change OF key before the last Ia
merit to many better Known songs Of this class
"Nothing but Leaves" soprano solo and quartet
for church and paror, Mrs. j. f. Knapp. A pleasing,
unpretentious piece; the accompaniment, however,
might be improved.
s. T. Gordon publishes the following:-"My Hearts
Desren song; Ihe shades Of Night" trio for female
voices; How Beautiful upon the Mountain ord-
nation anthem-J. e. Perring. One OF the charac-
tertstics Of this composer Is that no mater what
ali the resources OF harmony enables him to make
the most commonplace theme interesting Either

The vote for candidates win not diner materiallv
from that on the constitution.
On the question Of convention during the election
in November last the vote stood as folows:-For
convention, 1900; against 65s; total 2,05s.
The Raleigh Standard (radical April "a, thinks It
probable that 900 Of the 900 votes registered
have been polled Thousands Of white persons, not
republicans did not vote. The colored voters have
no doubt turned out WELL OF the 10000 registered Il
is almost certain that less than 900 have voted.
This added to the white republican VOTE would foot
up 96,0 900. We do not think the conservative vote
has gone beyond 65 O0O 1t is probably nearer 90 1000
The Raleigh Sentinel conservative April "a,
says:-'N0 information has yet reached US which
changes our previously formed conviction that the
new constitution Is defeated. This conviction was
based entirely upon the repeated assurances we have
had from all quarters that the white conservatives OF
the State were fully aroused and would go to the
polls"
SOUTH CAROLINA.
The Charleston Courier, April 49, says:-The total
vote p0lled far reported yesterday, with four
districts to hear from, was 76,001 Of which 50.0l9
were cast for the constitution and 17,30S against.
The number Of votes reported but not yet canvassed
is 90, 1874. Complete returns have been made from
eight districts, incomplete returns from nineteen.
and four districts from which no returns have been
received. In Horny the democrats have carried the
district by 500 majority, in Anderson by 70 majoritys
in Union the democrats have 2l5 majority, with
one registration precinct to hear from; Pckens, in
GLIDING Oconee, gives 100 democratic majority.
No returns have yet been received from Beaufort and
Lancaster, and only partial returns from Spartan
burg, Union, Anderson, Pickens ana Oconee. In
Marion the majority for the constitution only IL,
in York 66, in Greenve 600.
The following official returns have been received
of the vote on the constitution which has probably
been carried by about thirty thousand majority -

The dry details of law, precedents and legal
authorities in the tedious and wearisome argu-
ments on the impeachment have been some
what enlivened with poetical quotations, In
which Messrs Butler, Curtis and Boutwell, in
dulged little, but in which Mr.. Nelson, OF
Tennessee, and Logan, of Illinois, especially
in the elements overhead, including thunder
and lightning, bear off the palm. Thus quotes
Mr.. Nelson:-
From peak to peak the rafting crags among
Leaps the live thunder; not from one lone Cloud
But every mountain now hath found tongue,
And Jura answers through her misty snroua
Back to the joyous Alps, who call TO her aloud.
And again.
Like some tall cliff that lifts its awful form,
Swes to the vale and midway meets the storm,
Though round its breast the rolling clouds are spread
Eternal sunshine settles on Its head.
And yet AGAIN.
Though in that cloud were thunders worst,
And charged with lghtnings, let them burst.
And yet again quotes the poetical Nelson =
Forever and anon Of grief subdued,
There comes a token like scorpion sting,
Scarce seen but with fresh bitterness imbued
And slight wtha may be the thoughts Wn Sng er'ns
Back to the heart the might which u W0ulo nng
Aside forever. 1t may be sound
Alone OF music summer eve or spring,
The wind, the wave Of ocean, which shall wound,
bound.
And yet once more he gives his favorite
Byron:-
The how or why we know not, nor can trace
Home to Its cloud this lightning OF the mind
All this completely demolishes Messrs. Sum-
ner and Dawes, of Massachusetts,, in their re-
cent simultaneous quotation in each house Of
this choice extract
/ hear lion in the lobby roar,
Say, Mr.. Speaker, shall we shut the door,
But the fiery Logan, ''half horse and half
alligator, in single verse applied to Andrew
Johnson demolishes Nelson as follows:-
| am the rider Of the wind,
The strrer OF the Storm
The hurricane left behind
Is yet with lightning warm.
We think, however, that the conversation of
Mother Goose with the witch flying in the air
on broom would have been better, viz
sold woman old woman, old woman" said I,
"Where are you going, you soar so high9"
"TO sweep the cObwebS from the sky,
But shall be back again by and BY"
And we are rather surprised that Mr.. Nelson
forgot that famous inscription in the register
of the Mammoth Cave of Kentucky (not far
from TENNESSEE, which reads as follows
Mammoth Cave, oh what spot
In summer cold in winter hot
Let the eagle scream son what wonder
Andrew Jackson, fire and thunder"
In conclusion Mr.. Chief Justice, we expect
that the winding up radical negro chorus of
this impeachment will be:-
Old Andy's gone, ha hat
And Old Bens come, no no!
IL must be now de kingdom am q coming,
And de year of jubio

Too Hen" Every man has his price"
they say, and according to Mr.. Nelson, of the
Presidents counsel, the Hon. Jerry Blacks
price for assisting in the Presidents defence
was ship-of-war to be sent down to take pos
session of the little guano island Of Alta Vea'
in behalf of Mr.. Blacks clients, elected by the
government of Dominica, with the consent OF
Mr.. Seward. So it appears that Mr.. BLACK
services were lost to the defence on TINS I'm
parchment because his price was too high.

Impeachment and the Republican Candidate

for the Presidency.
Impeachment means the defeat of Grant In
the contest for the nomination of the republican
party. So sure as johnson is impeached and
removed and Wade secures his place. Grant
will not and cannot become the candidate.
His nomination will not be within the posi-
bilities of the game. Wade, becoming Presi-
dent, if at all, In the beginning of May, will
pursue the line Of policy he stands on
now-that of "masterly inactivity" He will
not hustle out of Office every man now
in. He will not break up the fountains Of the
great deep in the matter of party patronage.
He will hold in reserve the vast wealth Of
the patronage of his position-that tremendous
power to make hundred thousand men rich 'by
and with the advice and consent of the Senate.
He will hold thatpower with the definite under
standing everywhere, however, that the Offices
are to be redistributed shortly and the john
son men turned out. He will 60 into the con-
vention with this power in his hands, He will
go with an almost illimitable power of appoint
ment in his pocket-that is to say, he will go
prepared to buy up every shape and stripe OF
adverse opinion. What soldier ever had or
ever will have record that can outweigh in
the minds of members of conventions the i'm
mediate certainty of fat Office? None. Wade,
therefore, will be omnipotent, and will so use
his power as to secure what he so earnestly
desires-time enough in the Presidential chair
to make friends-that is, five years. Let
every Grant man in the Senate who votes for
conviction clearly understand that in so voting
he does his utmost to destroy Grants chances
for the Presidency.
