THE ALABAMA IABRoGLI0
The Indications are that Governor Smith has
thrown up the sponge and will vacate his violent
possession or the aubernatoral once to Governor
&Asu 1p
OF some arrangement between the contending
parties, with the hope OF reconciling conflicting rail-
road schemes by mutual CONCESSIONS. Smith, ind
ing himself completely outnanked by the judicial
proceedings Instituted against HIM, has wisely con-
ciuded TO make the best Of q bad bargain, and In
order to some OF his friends and TO keep mp his
falling fortunes has doubtless exacted terms in his
surrender by which he hopes TO turn an honest q
penny in the future. There be question OF
the fact that, politically, he Is dead herring,
and to the surface, unless the Presi-

repeated assertion that the plan reconstruct
the South was the policy OF Andrew Johnson, with

There never was In any other Senatorial canvass
as much effort made TO the election Of the ad
mlnistration favorite, and the defeat Of Senator
Warner is looked upon as signal reverse and a
federal patronage rout--horse, foot and dragons
even worse than the late campaign IN New York.
However senator Warner VIII be comfortably taken
care OF by the President, and he is being named in
| connection with the Offices OF Governor OF Utah or
i Commissioner Of the General Land Onice. Ii may
be that he viii be forced 10 take SIDES In the quarrel
between the President and eXSecreary Cox, and

his ed ONO friend ana supporter, with whom he
has always entertained the most Intimate relations.

paper, will assault hin as recreans friend: and Ii

To his own reelection To the senate.
ST. DOMINGO.
The friends OF the ST. Domingo acquisition are not
pleased with the reelection of senator Robertson Of
South Carona, whose hostility 10 the Ratification OF
the treaty understood TO be unappeasable and i'm
pacable He accomplished his re.eeciion without
any aid from Washington whatever, and secured
the coveted prize Of SIX years term In the Senate
through convincing arguments OF his personal gene

the next PRESIDENTIAL campaign he Is In excellent
shape to dictate his own terms.
1t WIN be remembered that the President took
Senator Robertson with him III his fishing party

ANDY JOHNSON REDrvIvus.
Anybody who thinks Andy Johnson has shu1led
OF his mortal polt,c1 coil Is sadly mistaken. The
Sage OF Greenvilie refuses to add his corpse to the
numerous Capuet family and is seeking shelter
within the folds oil the republican party in Tennes-
see. The understanding here IN trustworthy circles
IS that he IS ouckng on his ariaor to fight seces-
sion, which he asserts Is showing fangs again IN
the Kuklux region. lie proposes to raise the AmerI-
can nag, and with the constitution IN hand and
his 81. Cloud speech IN the other preach crusade
against the barDarous Moors OF Tennessee who in-
slst upon making secession the touchstone and
for once.
at latest accounts he was busily engaged in snub-
| bng Edmund Cooper. his late private secretary,
and all the other Coopcrs, including Henry Cooper,
the Senator elect 10 succeed Fowler also IN de-
nouncing the new state constitution as revoutona-
~ and unrcpublican.
He was annoyed the republican party for putting
candidate III the ned Tor Governor at the late elee-
tion as he desired 10 run independently against
the demscfatic conservative nominee-the Coniede-
rate General John q. Brown. Unfortunately there
are no ofices TO fill In Tennessee for the next year
or mere, and hence no one can tell which place Andy
! johnson most desires. He has, however the future
In store and gives due notice tnat he viii consecrate
the remainder of his days the old nag OF the
Union, with all Its stars as soon as Georgia gets re-
| admitted.
The hatchet Is therefore in fair way to be buried
| between Andy johnson and Brownlow, Maynard and
| Bald Eagle Stokes; ana Tennessee republcans DO
not hesitate to predict that by 1872 he will be fully
prepared TO support General Grants reelection ana
take a place In the latter's Cabinet should he win
another Il esidential victory.
