Woodbury., Secretary of the Treasury.
i'm July, 1886, and which was long an
exciting topic throughout the United
States.
Mr.. Ewing resumed the practice OF
his profession in 1887, on the expira-
ton of his Senatorial term. He was
selected by President Harrison, in
1910, as Secretary Of the Treasury,
and continued in that Office under Mr..
Tyler until September of that year,
when all the Cabinet officers except
Webster, resigned. President lay
lor, on coming into Office in 1S49, APP
pointed Mr.. Ewing as Secretary of
the new Department of the Interior,
which vas as yet unorganized. Again
the death of a President terminated
his Cabinet service, having resigned
on Mr.. Fillmore's assuming the Elk
ecutive chair on the ninth day of July
1850.
After filling out the unexpired term
of Mr.. Corwin, who resigned his seat
in the Senate to become Secretary OF
the Treasury, Mr.. Ewing retired to
Lancaster in 1851, since which time,
almost to the day of his death, he had
been actively engaged in the practice
of his profession.
In public and private life, Mr. Ew-
ing vas a man of integrity, determin:
ed in his purposes. powerful as a friend
or as an antagonist, diguified yet ge-
NAL in his bearing, strong but not
hasty in his impulses, and firmly at
tached to what he deemed the '.good
old ways" in preference to change i'll
the name-of progress. A few days
since, he was received into the com
munion of the Roman Catholic church
to which part of his family belong
He retained his mental powers with
great clearness to the last, and quietly
sank to rest from his prolonged earth
ly career.
Mr.. Ewing was buried ear Ian
caster, Ohio, on Saturday, October
18th, 1871. He was followed to his
final resting place by a large number
of friends, among whom distin-
guished members of the bar, leading
politicians, and military men of note.
For the last ten years Mr.. Ewing
mingled but little in politics. He was
an old wing Of the Clay school, and
conservative in all his ideas. Since
and during the late civil war, ON two
or three occasions, he felt it bis duty
to protest at length against the usur-
pations going on at Washington.
We heard Mr.. Ewing make many
political speeches from twenty,to thirty
years ago, when he was in his prime.
He was not an eloquent speaker; but
his style was massive and logical in
the highest degree. His reasoning
powers resembled those of Daniel
Webster. As a lawyer, in the Su-
preme Court of the United States, he
had few equals. A man of great
physical force, his endurance, forth
tude and legal skill generally, enabled
him to triumph over every obstacle.
Very few of the great men of his
day remain. One or two of the Stan.
berrys, Hon. VIM. Allen, Willard Fill
more,S Salmon z Chase and a few
others, yet survive. Would that the
future may be rich in the production
of such statesman, lawyers and inan-
ciers as the late Thomas Ewing.

The Beginning of the End.

We have more than once comment
ed upon the unprecedented authority
conferred upon President Grant, by
Congress, under the pretense of re-
pressing Irregularities in the South,
but really to indoctrinate and gradu-
ally accustom the American people to
yield obedience to an Autocratic ruler.
While Republicans admitted the late
acts of Congress granted extraordinary
powers, and left their exercise wholly
discretionary with the President, we
were assured no contingency would
arise for their use. We were told they
were 'tbug- bears" erected to frighten
Southern ma]contents into obedience
to the wise and amiable gift enterprise
and horse jockey who presides over
and disgraces the White House. That
dream has been dispelled. The cleo
tons are over and the mild Ulysses
proves to be a wolf ready to tea and
rend. The mask has been removed /;
the man "of many jackets" looms upon
the stage in his true character of
mountebank and tyrantl He has
sent his military m~iscreants into one
of the most orderly districts in South
Carolina, and declared its people have
no rights above a "drum- head-trial.'
This is the beginning of the campaign
of 1872. The intention of the Ad-
ministration is, to be-devil, exasperate,
-malign and iDflame the Southern PEG
pie into some sort of resistance. that
the Tyrant may have ar excuse to
declare martial law all over the South
and prevent a vote on the choice of
President in 1921 No such act of
internal malice has been committed by
any of his predecessors; and ii Presi-
dent johnson deserved impeachment
because he removed an inefficient and
dishonest clerk, General Grant should
be ~impeached and punished for high
crimes and misdemeanors. The Pitts
burgh Post, calls the attention of the
people and Congress to the matter as
follows The first duty that Con-
gress should discharge when it assem-
bles in December, is the impeachment
and trial of General Grant. His utter
unftness for the Office has long been
recognized by the thinking men of all
parties ; but the largest number have
regarded him only a a negative evil.
But now they have discovered their
mistake, aud find that although he is
scarcely one remove from ~imbecility,
he is nevertheless the instrument by
which may be wrought the most seri-
GUS injury. When Senator Sumner,
last winter, from his place in the Sen
ate denounced Grant as ausurper and
the chief of the Ku KIux, he knew
his man, and refused to be blinded by
partisan prejudice to the fact that
Grant would hesitate ut nothing to
satiate his ambitious projects. While
we disagree with Mr. Sumner in all OF
his political tenets, and consider him
the exponent of dangerous political
dogmas, We frankly concede that he
Is open and honest in his convictions.
1t now devolves upon Senator Sum-
ner to make his past professions of de
votion to a constitutional government
good. IF we mistake not, Congress il

suggest little further investigation into

Tweed, the head Belzebub of Tam
many Hall, has worse opinion of the
Democracy than he has of the people gen.
orally. We suppose he does from his
change of thought. When the New York
Times first published the evidences of his
rascality he cunningly declared that he
intended to 'laugh it of, as the people
would forget all about it in a year" But
the people refused to accept his laugh or
to forget, so he has changed his tactics,
and now assumes the very defiant attitude
that his ''party will elect him anyhow"
The country awaits the result with some
degree of Impotence. The question at
issue is, will the Democracy of New York,
which is largely Catholic, elect man to
the State Senate who is almost a con-
fessed plunderer to the extent of millions
OF dollars? There is little religious
problem embraced in the answer

Either the Collector of Customs in Ne,

Either the Collector of Customs in New
York ought to resign, be removed,
or clear himself of the serious charges
against him, or else the public is
very unjustly prejudiced against him.
Even the Brooklyn Union and the
st. Louis Democrat, both ardent
friends of the administration and strong
Republican papers, declare this much.
Mr. Murphyis publicly charged with hav-.
ing swindled the government liz a con-
tract for soldiers hats, out of large sum
of money, which be aftesward covered up
by hiring the principal witnesses to dis
appear when a military committee was
appointed to examine into the matter. He
is further charged with having presided
at meeting that supported Seymour for
President; with having supported Hoff-
man for governor, and with being part
ner with one of the principal Tammany
Hall thieves. These charges are made by
responsible Republicans, and the only
answer is that they are the result of par
tisan persecution, which is always the
lamest defense that an honest man can
make. We agree with the St. Louis
Democrat which is one of the strongest
papers in the West, that Mr.
Murphy owes it to the Republican party
and to the national administration, either
to resign or to clear himself of these
accusations.
