new the disgrace:.ul TRADES of that day

the opportunity of his temperance In
the Senate as an occasion to deal out
his bad grammar and peculiar rhetoric
In personal IDENTIFICATION Of the Presi-

blackguardism that nothing In his past
history can pallilte or excuse.
The fact that when he was President
he was not restrained by the character
Of his high Office. nor consideration for
the country, but gave freedom to a
RIGHTEOUSNESS of speech and a gross
ness and vulgarity Of manners that
had no precedent among the public

the country to expect that, on his re-
turn to public life, he would resume
Just where he left off six years ago.

It will impart a certain sense of Sc
curity to the public mind to know that
there is at least one man IN the Senate
Of the United States who plants each
Of his feet on a copy Of the Constitu-
ton, floErishes alott some dozens in
each hand, and Hows hundreds besides
broadcast throughout the land. And
besides it is some satisfaction to know
that Mr.. johnson has learned, since
his retirement from the White House,
that the President is not the United
States, and that there is no such thing
in the Constitution. Then he thought
the President 1UIs the United States.
Then he did not hesitate to dispense
State Legislatures at the point of the
bayOnet. Then he saw no improperly,
no danger, no usurpation, in requiring
States to ratify an amendment to the
Constitution as q condition precedent
to their liberation from military
government AMI admission to the
Union, while at the same time he lusti-
ly asserted that these States were not,
and never had been out of the Union.
Neither did he see any improperly or
usurpation In appointing provisional
governors" for these States-oficers
unknown to the Constitution and laws
Of the United States. And then he
dashed himself into a furious passion
because Congress made bold to say that
he was not the United States, and that
it was not for The President to pull
down and set up State governments, or
to define the political status of States
which had been in arms against the
United States. 1t is really some salts
faction to know that the great cham
piOn of the people and their COnstitu-
ton views these things differently, now
that he Is looking at the White House,
instead of out of its windows.

CAN Elihu B. Washburne be the
Republican candidate for President
next year? the NelC York Sun asks, and
responds: "Elihu was always the most
unpopular man in Congress, and there
are probably more Republicans that
hate him than hate any other fellow.
Besides, he is held responsible for
Grant, and that is enough to ruin even
a statesman" What about MortOn's
chances to secure the nomination of
convention Of ofice-holders?

lucky and Tennessee. After reciting
the positions assumed in the charge to
the grand jury, the Tribune closes as
follows:
1t will be noticed that in his argu-
ment Judge Emmons takes substan-
TALLY the same legal objections to the
law that were urged in the Senate by
Senator Carpenter, Of Wisconsin. This
opinion Of the court as to the unconstl-
nationality of the Civil Rights law Is
conclusive as to any criminal prOsecu-
tons under that Law IN Tennessee
The Judge, however, invited all per-
sons feeling themselves aggrieyed under
the law to bring their civil actions IN
the court, so that the question might
be carried TO the Supreme Court Of the
United States for review and for final
adjudication.

EMIGRATION to America having
very much decreased of late, the Ber-
lin Government, who have long looked
with disfavor upon the steady diminu-
ton Of the national resources involved
IN the movement, have determined to
profit by the present opportunity for
stemming the tide. The two principal
measures to be adopted are the dis
memberment of a portion of the i'm
mense crown Iands of Prussia, and the
prohibition 70 enlist emigrants on for
eign account at a premium Of 50 much

people are to be enabled to acquire a

call their own, the latter step being in

ness of Brazilian and other foreign
agents. There IS no doubt that this
determination Of the Prussian Govern

The Chicago Tribune says the charge
Of Judge Emmons on the Civil Rights
act Will not fail to attract the atten-
ton Of the country, adding: Judge
Emmons is not a Southern man. He
has lived all Lis life IN Michigan; and,
in the selection Of eminent lawyers to
be Circuit Judges under the act
Of 1871, he was appointed because
Of his high standing and learn
ing as a lawyer. He has never been
a Democrat; was originally a Wing;
and has been a Republican since the
party was estabished-more than
twenty years ago. iscircuit includes

THE vote in Connecticut is very
close. From 1856 until the close of the
war and including 1866, the Repubi-
cans carried the State. In 1865 negro
suffrage was voted down, although the
Republican candidate for Governor
was elected by the largest majority
1I,035-ever polled IN the State. In
1866 this majority was reduced TO 54l,
and in 1867 the Democrats carried the
State, although IN 1868 the Grant
electors were successful From 1868
to the present day the honors have been
about equal, the Republicans succeed
ing four times and the Democrats
three. In 1872 the Temperance party
was formed, and polled for its candi-
date for Governor ! $40 votes; In 1873,
2,54l votes, and in 1874, 1900 votes.
Last year the vote stood: Democrat,
1915; Republican, 80. 973; Democratic
majority, 1909 The election takes

SENATOR JOHNsON's ATTACK
UPON GRANT.
New York Sun, (Ind@

NV 4Olh ONAls kAAAug
Those who reioiced over Mr.. John
sons election to the Senate doubtless
made up their minds to take him as he
is. Therefore they viii not be disaP-
pointed to find that his speech treated
somewhat Of himself and his own ad-
ministration of the Presidential Office,
and was terribly severe upon the South
ern policy of his successor. Everybody
knows that johnson owes a heavy debt
to Grams, and nobody viii be surprised
that he embraced this occasion to dis
charge it in full. Mr.. JOhnson's speech
was delivered from an independent
standpoint; and though somewhat YER
bose and wandering, 1t was racy and
amusing, and bristled all over with
sharp and singing points. 1t is already
apparent that the Republicans are not
going to make anything by forcing
this untimely and unwise resolution
through the Senate.
New York Tribune, CInd1
Senator Andrew JohnsOn's first
speech Will hardly meet the rather In
ordinate expectations created In the
public mind by his temperance in the
Senate. As an argument IN the LOUi-
siana case it viii not bear comparison
with either Of several speeches made
during the present session of the Senate
by Senators from whom less was ex-
pected. Mr.. JohnsOn's views on the
third. term questionand reflections upon
the President and Gen. Sheridan viii
attract attention, but they lay the ex-
President open to the charge of forget
ting his promise to ignore old personal
questions In his new Senatorial career.

The speech Of Andrew johnson in

arraignment Of the Administration. He
passes at once from a brief cOnsidera-
ton Of the law and the facts to a bold
denunciation Of the President and a
passionate appeal to the people. Vir-
tually the address is an impeachment

LONDON. April rs 80 A. VI.
Tne special despatch from Paris to the London
Times says
the Prussian note 70 Belgium, concerning the
pastorals OF the bishops and other
matters OF offence, alter enumerating the
causes OF complaint adds:-..IJfis scarcely
possible that the laws o. Belgium cannot enable
the government TO stop undertakings which might
alter its relations VITA neighboTing States. Neu-
tral states which WISH 70 preserve the advantage
OF their position saould carefully avoid anything
which might aEer that principle Of neutrality
which IS the basis or their existence. n
Belgian laws do not contain the authority
necessary 20 obtain the legitimate satisfaction
claimed o. the German government the latter
homes 5egum will supply the deficiency by fresh
legisntlon"
THE REPLY OF THE BELGIAN GOVERNMENT.
The Times correspondent gives the substance OF
Belgum's answer which refutes the claims put
forward ana reminds Germany that the pastoral
letters complained OF were published at the be-
ginning Of the struggle in Germany against the
Pope. and ought now 70 be forgotten.
The address OF sympathy to the imprisoned
Bishop OF Paderborn. another grievance alleged
by Germany, Belgium insists was the act OF
INDIVIDUALS, not OF an organized society.
The answer continues:-Germany previously
thanked the Belgian authorities Tor their conduct
In the matter OF the Duchesne plot, an investiga-
ton into which Is still proceeding. The
Belgian laws are sufficient for the suppression
Of actual offences; but offences OF intention can
not be repressed. The liberty enjoyed by Belgium
is drawn from the very vItals OF the nation.
The attrttude OF this people has always
excited general admiration. They have
given an example OF liberty allied TO order. Inde-
pendent and neutral Belgium mas never done any
thing, Notwithstanding the incessant intercourse
between the two countries. that could alter It's re-
lations with a friendly nation which guarantees
her indep cndence.
