The eprIng Eleclions.

The Republican press very generally
throughout the State, are urging upon the
Republicans the Importance of getting out
full vote on next Monday for their can
didates. They seem to attach unusual i'm
portance, at this time, to these elections.
They are impressed with the idea that if
considerable gains shall be shown in their
favor, since last fall, it will be a good thing
to rejoice over and represent as a reaction
in favor of Negro States, Negro voting,
Negro children attending the same schools
with White children, and all that.
Now, may it not be just as well for DEM
ocrats, under the circumstances, to turn out
in full force, toop Why should then allow
lese elections to go by defaults Ii ever
there was time when men should show by
their votes, an utter detestation of the Rad
icals In Congress, that time is now. A good,
strong vote everywhere against the Repub-
can candidates may serve to convince the
mad men In Congress that they must pay
some Difference to the interests Of the peo-
pie if they wish to be continued in power.

The Democrats In the Legislature have
griegously offended the Ohio State Journal
and it cries ont: |" The past week has been
q work Of triumph for the white.skinnt d
aristocracy.nl This fuss IL made because
ths Ohio Senate has passed q bin restrict
ing the privilege of voting exclusively to
White men Of the requisite age, and be-
cause the House has passed bill to pre-
vent the mixing up of White and Colored
children In the same schools. After scold-
ing through over one-half column, the
Jomrnal lifts its finger, and warns !" the
Caucasian aristocracy that it Is. just pos
sible that they may carry their prosecutions
of aH5unfortunate race . little too far and
that . resction in favor of the unjustly, op-
pressed may sweep the oppressers forever
from power" ssa.s rs ~ rs sgs g. Il ls7R ~
The voters Of Ohio passed on this matter
at the election last fall, and after very
thorough discussion or the whole question,
the proposition to strike out of the State
Constitution the.word White. tell short Of
adoption something over fifty, thousand
votes. What is the significance of that
voter Is it that Colored men shall, not
withstanding, be allowed to vote, and Col
ored children to be mixed up indiscrimin-
ately with White children in the same
schoolsf Under the circumstances, = the
White-skinned aristocracy" can afford to
''let the heathen rage" r ~

Pressure Brought to Bear for
Impeachment.

!
We see 1t stated, by wide-awake Wash
ington correspondent of a Republican jour.
nal that very considerable pressure has
been brought to bear lately upon Re-
4 publican Senators in favor of Impeach-
ment, and that this pressure has been chief:
| lY broaght to bear by persons who imagine
that it BEN. WADE shall be seated in the
Presidential Chair for President JoHNsoN'f
Iunexpired term, they will become re.
cipients of office. 1t is this class of men
who are bounding on, Impeachment, re-
/ gardless of what may result from it. It Is
self, and not considerations of the welfare
OF the country, that animates them. The
! business men-the solid men of the coun-
! try, and that great army of men who never
iexpect to make Livelihood out of Office
do not importune for Impeachment. Sup
pose they do Impeach, if PresidentJ JOHNSON
has one particle of pluck he will not quietly
surrender his Office; and if the Radicals
in Congress shall be equally determined,
then between the two We shall have the
country thrown into war, the magnitude
Of which it is now difficult to arrive at. To
many, President JOHNSON seems nerveless
and vasciilating. His situation has been
trying and for man who is denounced as
needless and rash, it is surprising that be-
tore this the country was not precipitated
into war. 1t is noteworthy, however, that
he has stuck to what goes by the name
of his policy with remarkable adhesive.
ness. Every act that he conceived in con-
iict with the Constitution and that policy
he has vetoed. Some things he may have
done that appeared unwisely; but he
has. notabandoned his policyor bis avowed
duty to the Constitution. He is clear in his
own mind that he has not violated either
the Constitution or law; he denies the
right of Congress to GUST him from office
by Impeachment. He looks upon this Inn
parchment trial as mockery and sham.
So looking upon it, and, furthermore, look
ing upon the Radicalsin Congress as body
of conspirators against the Constitution
and the Union, what more natural than for
him to undertake to hold on to his Office
until it shall expire by law? = - sees'ss

void q Co., S. N. Moody & Co., E. A. Tyler.
NJ. R. Hsggerty, and others, plaintiffs,
through Messrs. Campbell, Spofford &
Campbell. All of these, and others in the
same court, resist the payment of the tax,
and the following is the petition in the
case:
The petition of the taxpayer, a resident
'n6 citizen OF New Orleans, Louisiana, re-
specaully shows:
Tat the tax collector for the district in

special notice, requiring petitioner to call
at his Office and pay tax of (amount
named), it being called lone per cent State
tax as per act No. ia of the Legislature,
approved September 30, 1862 and threat
ening petitioner with seizure and sale of
| bis property in default of payment of said
tax within ten days, as will more fully
| appear by said notice, which is an
nexed hereto as part hereof. Now
petitioner AYERS that said tax is illegal
and unconstitutional, and is not due by
| petitioner that the so-called act LA of
| the Legislature, approved September 90
| 1868, is not a law, and is without force and
validity; that it was not passed with the
forms and solemuities prescribed by the
| Constitution of Louisiana under which it
| is pretended to have been passed; that its
| pretended passage was in violation of arti-
| Gle fOrty-two of said constitution; that ii
was not read in each House on three sew
eral days; and that four-ffths of each House
which pretended to pass it, did not order a
suspension of the constitutional rule
requiring such reading; that said pre-
tended act ia is also IN contravention oi
the articles ITO and i18 of the State Constitu.
tion aforesaid; that it is retroactive and
forbidden; that it attempts TO impose a
taxation not equal and uniform, and to tax
property not in proportion to its value, to
be ascertained as directed BY law; that fol
the foregoing and other reasons to be
shown on the trial, the said pretended act
No. III, approved September 30, 1868, is
unconstitutional, null and void. and the
tax demanded by said collector from peti.
tioner, by virtue thereof, is not due, and
owing, but is an unauthorized, unlawful
and oppressive exaetion. Petitioner shows
that Notwithstanding he verify fear:
and believes that unless restrained by q
writ of injunction the said tax collector
will proceed Immediately to seize and sell
the property of your petitioner, as ht
threatens to do, for the purpose of COMPEL
ing the payment of said illegal and uncon
stitutional tax to petitioners irreparabl,
; injury. Wherefore petitioner brings thi
suit, and prays your honor, after consider
| ing the premises, and the annexed affidavit
to fix the amount of bond of petitioner
and to order that an injunction thereupol
issue restraining and inhibiting the said tai
collector from proceeding to seize and sci
any OF petitioners property for the pay
ment OF said pretended tax.
