Senator Sumner on the War Path-Hs
Threatens to Impeach the President.
! A special to the Herald from Wash
ington, dated the Goth inst, says
The forthcoming speech of Sumner
on the Presidents West Indian policy
is causing much excitement i'll poiit-
ical circles. Tile Senator's friends in
the Republican party have been advis-
| ing him 10 abandon his war upon the
| President, and several OF the most
| prominent of them have warned him
that his course will meet the disap-
proval OF a large majority of the par
| ty. Sumner, however, is ineXorable,
and the result of his speech will prob
ably be his removal from the chair
manship of the committee on foreign
relations. The Rupublican Senators
argue that it is alike unjust to the ad-
ministration. and to the majority in
| Congress who support the admins
! tration, to have at the head of a lead
ing committee of the Senate Senator
as hostile to the President as any
Democrat. Sumner is not so sick as
he has been represented in some of
the papers. lie expects to be out to-
morrow. and or Tuesday will proba-
bly, make his speech in the Senate.
He already talks of impeaching the
| President.

IT seems that Rev. Henry Ward
Beecher is NOT very favorably inclined
towards the proposed theological
amendment of the Constitution. His
paper says of it: "Suppose you tri-
umph in the inevitable and desperate
struggle with all the infidels, and all
the politicians, and all the nothingari-
ans. what will you have accomplished !?
Y ou will have added to the document
in question three letters: just g o d !;
nothing more. Is that God in the
Constitution Perhaps so, but God
knows there would be no more God
an the country for all that; and we
don't believe he would accept this
poor compliment in lien of that prac-
tical service which he demands at the
hands of the people,"

Butler, is copied from the English acts

years ago, against the Irish people to

Commissioners are to execute it, sup
ported by the army and navy. The
main design of it is to carry the next
presidential election by intimidation
and violence. Why don't these Radi-
cal despots come up promptly and
boldly to their work, and declare that
no one ought to or shall be allowed
to vote unless he votes to continue
the rule of the present despotic dy-
nasty?

Sensible YicX.

The venerable statesman of Ohio,
the Hon. Thomas Ewing; is vehe-
mently hostile to the San Domingo
scheme. lie is opposed to the annex
alton of San Domingo, Cuba, or any
other of the West India Islands. He
says we have enough idle and worth
less people now to consume our char
tiles and help us govern ourselves,
and that it would be unwise to go in
to the tropics for a lot of recruits
still idler and more worthless. He
thinks annexation has been carried
far enough. The following paragraph
is terse and TO the point: 'If we an
mex territory, we simply go into part
nership-share our benefits and bur-
dens with them. If there were ada
cent to us better governed and more
prosperous people, would consent
to annex them, and thus improve the
general condition of the country, max
ing the aggregate better than onr
present part; but l am not willing to
take, in large or small doses, the worst
elements of humanity and stir into
our cup, which they must render cer-
tainly little more nauseous and dis
tasteful. We can get the sugar with
ont the Dose"

ABOUT the only reason the Radicals
advance why they should be contin-
ued in power is, that they have made
large payments -on the public debt.
They forget to mention the fact that
during all this time they have impos-
ed the most outrageous and. oppres-
Give burthens of taxation upon the
people, while they have exempted fa-
vored and privileged classes. That
so much of the debt as they have liq-
Undated, if any, has been paid at d
premium, when the government had
the right to pay it at par; and that, in
the levy and collection of tsxes they
have Disseminated against the indus
try of the country, and have built up
privileged order in the land when the
people should be recognized as equals
before the law.

THE bill to amend the act for the
enforcement of the 18th Amendment,
which was recently passed by the
House of Representatives of Con-
gress, was also passed in the Senate
on the Oath ult., by strict party vote,
yeas 80, nays 10. This is one of the
most infamous acts passed by any
Congress since the government was
organized, and should arouse the in
dignation of every man who cherish
es one particle of regard for the sys-
tenn of government established by the
founders of the Republic, under the
old Constitution. 1t is revolutionary
in it's character, and subversive of the
independence of the States and of the
rights which they severally reserved
to themselves when they entered into
the federal compact. 1t is one of the
appliances by which they hope to con-
tinue their despotic rule, but it won't
avail them.
1t is in this manner that the Radi-
Gals are redeeming the pledge made
by them in the beginning of the war,
that it should be prosecuted on our
part for the sole purpose of maintain
ing the constitutional authority of the
government and to preserve the
Union with all the rights, dignity and
equality of the several States unim-
paired. This law does not leave the
States the right and dignity to man
age their own elections, which they
have exercised from the organization
of the government, and without
which they are not worthy the name
of States.
THE subcommittee on reconstruct
tion are said to be in favor of bill re-
moving disabilities from all persons
who have given evidence of accepting
the situation in good faith. That
means such as vote the Radical ticket
and are in favor of revolutionizing
the Government, and why don't they
say SO at once.

The Radical destructives don't seem
to be making very rapid progress in
the work of "breaking down all dis
tinctions on account of race, color, or
previous condition." Recently while
the subject of schools in the District
of Columbia was under consideration
in the Senate, Revels, the negro Sena-
tor from Mississippi, made a speech
on the subject, arguing against prop
osition of Mr.. Patterson for mixed
schools where white and negro chill
dren should be educated together. He
opposed the proposition because, as
he said, he "was satisfied that the
passage by Congress of such law
would increase the prejudice of the
white man against the black, which
prejudice, he was sorry to say, seemed
to be on the increase" 1t IS certainly
past comprehension that after half
century of preaching on the part of
the abolitionists, and after all the leg
islation of the Radical Congress i'll a
win endeavor to equalize and bar-
monize the races, the antipathy against
the "man and BROTHER" should be
growing wider and deeper, II IT be
merely founded in "prejudice." II
is feared that no amount of preaching
OF legislating will eradicate it. Ia
