Congress vs. The President. &b-president Andrew Johnson is an anomaly. Ho belongs to lio party.— He floated himself out of the Union ranks, and in the attempt to set up for himself, disgusted all that remains to to disgusted of the^ Democratic fossilization. As the dissolution between the President and Congress is now absolute, it is well for every body to know as exactly as possible, tho difference between them.

Tho original subject of difference •was the reconstruction of tho govern,taenia of the lately rebellious States. ^Mr. Johnson proceedv-d in that work ns if ho had all power at a certain 'point in his operations, Congress came "in and interrupted him, claiming that, vas the law-making department, tho roconstruction was their business alone. 3jet it bo observed that, in the begin

neither side denied that there j-was a necessity for ve-organizingthoiso -state governments both agreed that 'they were lapsed. Lot it bo also ob6crved that, up to this time, noithci the President nor any of his friends,

famongst

whom aro many really able

mon, have presented a clause or section of tho Constitution, or any law, or tho authority of any custom or precedent, justifying Mr. Johnson's claim of power.

Prom this original difference, another is born. Congress soon lost all confidence in the President. That ho was "indisposed to cxccuto its laws, passed •with a view to reconstruction, was fully shown in several instances, most notably in his recont attempt to nullify tho Congressional act by means of an opinion of his Attorney Genoral.

To secure the prompt and certain execution of its measures, Congress was at lant driven to tho policy of making that tho specific duty of some other official and looking around for one, most naturally it selected Gen. Grant. This Mr. Johnson resents and now he claims that liio duty of executing the JAWS of Congress is his Constitutional right. Congress replies by admitting tho claim, and cooly informing him that, if he fails in the duty, they will impeach him.

This last dispute, if such it may be eallcd, may be most simply put in this form Mr. Johnson says, that if Gen. Grant iB charged with exeeu-ting the re-con&truction act, he (Mr. Johnson,) can't be, and therefore he is outraged, and tho Constitution is violated. Congress on its

Bido

Tend

answers, that the

complainant is mistaken, since it is left his business to see that Gen. Grano doca his daty under the law. By way of illustration, let us suppose the law to be that, if General Sheridan wishes to remove tho rebel Throckmorton from the Governship of Texas, ho must first submit the matter to Gen. Grant, for his official approval: now

if

delegates to the 3d of

Gene­

ral Grant should refuso to act in the matter by witholding his approval or disapproval, then, says Congress, it is Mr. Johnson's duty, under tho Constitution, to require the Genoral to act one way or the other, 0¥ to remove him as an obstruction. In this case, every one will see at a glance, that Grant is charged with one duty under tho law, and the President with another under the Constitution, and that the former is subordinate to the latter.

In short, Congress has again checkmated tho President. Formerly he •was fenced in, now ho is bottled up. If the contest continues, we may expect to find him on exhibition in the condition of tho little monsters which doctors aro BO fond of putting away on their shelves, well pickled down in alcohol.

"THE SHADES OF DEATH." Thoro is in this county a very peculiar and noted place known as "The Pino Bluflfc, or^Shades of Death-.'' Hero many visitors resort yearly, &tho cliffs in tho vicinity aro covered with thoir names. I don't know whether any ono has ever written a description of it or whether it is possible for it to bo described so as to give a corroot idea of it, but I will try and, if those who may

this aro not satisfied with

the description, Ihoy can at any time, between the first of June and the first of November do as I did on the 20th day of July, 18G7, join a pleasant picnic party, and go and see it for themselves.

Two small streams run togother about ono mile from Sugar Creek, into which they empty, sonic fifteen miles South West of this placo. Those croeka,. for some two or throe miles, run between bluffs of solid soapstone, from eighty to ono hundrod feet high. At several points tho cliffs project almost entirely over the little stream that ripples and murmurs at their base, and at the very edge of these cliffs, tall, straight pines are growing, along whoso trunks you can sco from bolow, as though you wero sighting huge pieces of artillery towards the zenith.

Tho water, in running down those cliffs, has washed out holes of various fantastic shaDOs. Thero is one large cavity known by visitors a& the "Devil's Fireplace Anothor, that has a striking resemblance to a huge fisho's mouth, wide open. In a largo hole, at one point, just below tho edge of the cliff, entirely beyond the reach of n\an otherwise than by ropes from abovo, tho Eagles used to build and hatch, and the nest i3 yet visiblo from below. Of course this is known as tho "Eagle's

Nest." 2\o human eye, I suppose, has ever inspected it from any nearer point than the ground below for, to reach it by any means, would bo most difficult and dangerous.

Ono of tho small streams I have! montioned, folds back as it wero, at one point, so close as to leave only a narrow strip some four or fivo feet wide at the top, and not more than fifty or sixt}', at the base. This backbono rises some eighty or one hundred feet above tho stream, and to traverse it, it is extremely hazardous yet a hard path is beaten from ono end to' the other, by the crowd's that almost daily visit it, at this season of the year.

For something like a quarter of a mile before ihe two siueams unito, they run BO close 'ogether as to leave only a huge wall between, almost perpendicular on both This placo is rallfvi "The Dovif'-j E*okbune.' lo stand upon the top of it. and look into tho chasm a hundred feet below

on either side, is a sublime but fearful sight. To pass along this backbone is so uiScuit, that many shudder and turn back on reaching tho narrowest place. Think of walking over a plank three feet wido, and one hundred in tho air, and you will have an idea of the undertaking. Hundreds of both men and women, however, pass ovor it yearly, and it seems almost miriaeulous that none of them have over lost thoir balaneo and been dash ed to pieces on the rocks below.

At one point the creek winds almost in thoshapo of a horso shoe, and within this circle is a small green valley, covered with beech and spruce tree3.— The cliff towers heavenward all around you, and you feel aa though you had made your way into some mighty for trees built at a lime far back in the past when the earth was inhabited by giants. To stand within this circle, and look at tho tall cliffs around you, almost as smooth as masonry, with tall pines on top growing out to the very edge, presents as grand a specimen of nature's freaks as can bo found in Indiana. Further below, are two other valleys, surrounded with cliffrf. and in ali things vory similar to the one just described. In the second one, a fine spring gushes out, which nature

to have made for the especial

benefit of pic-nicers Just below tho creek, formed by the junction of the two I have mentioned, runs into Sugar creek, thero is a milldam, and the back-water makes an excellent place for boat-ridiDg. Our party was so fortunate as to find small, but safe and substantial boat at the mouth of the little creek, and an hour or so was spent in rowing up and down the mill pond, under tho projecting cliffs and trees, the labor of the oarsmen being relieved by the "lied-, While and Blue," and other songs which the ladies sung in an admirable manner.

Any one who wishes to sco nature in its wildest and most rugged form, should by all moans, visit the "Pine Bluffs, or Shades of Death." The place like tho character of Napoleon Bonaparte, is indeed "grand gloomy and peculiar." P-S. J£,,

Tho board of commissioners of this county (Tippecanoe) have commenced suit against William F., Hey no Ids-, former President of the Lafayette and Indiauapolis railroad, and Mosos Fowler, in tho circuit court for damages in a transaction of stock in that road.— The indictment sets forth that tho county of Tippecanoe subscribed and paid for 500 shares capital stock olHhe before the road was built. company which, had accumulated ly order of the directors to 500 shares, amount ing to §28,000, but which was in fact worth §342.000. tho road was built

mainly by money based on tho sale of bonds, the original stock subscribed only amounting to two thousand two hundred shares that the earnings of the road paid off all the indebtedness, and that for fifteen years the company had not paid any dividends, but allow- the scheme to ior:n a stock company ed the earnings to accumulate, which and inako largo investments. Ind. amounted, on Juno 2i, 1865, to a sum sufficient to pay off tho entire indebtedness of tho company and leave a largo surplus—the amount of which surplus is unknown, and has always been kept secret by Mr. Rej'noldd, even from a portion of the Directors that on tho 24t.h day of June, 1865, when Reynolds knew that each share of stock was worth .$600, tho Board of Commissioners, anxious to raise the money for the use of tho county, called on him and offered to soil him the stock, induced to do so by the misrepresentations of Reynolds and his agents, who had produced tho general impression that it was not worth its They have a "Rat Exterminating

though Fowler was a director in tho company, he was ignorant of the condition of its affairs, and deriving his information from .Reynolds, made an almost identical statement to them, though not disclosing hi& agency that tho board of commissioners being ignorant of the true value of the stock, and Reynolds and Fowler being men in good repute for truth, sold tho 500 for 025,G50, when- it was worth S3-i2, 000. Thoy bring suit for th°. §315,350. They further aflego that Fowler bo't stock and at once transfered it to Reynolds, who at the time, was ncgotia

ly secret, which concealment was part of tho fraud. Tho suit involves more than §500,000 for if the county can recover, other stockholders, who wero induced to sell out at a discount, will come in for a share of the surplus fund, as well as of the proceeds oi the

saic of tho road to tho Indianapolis and Cincinnati railroad.

Tlia President is in a sorry predicament. lie has been completely check-, muted in all his attempts to break down t.he party to which he is indebted for his elevation to the position ho now dishonors but in no ovent has he been more completely oul-generaiod,

He was earnest in his denunciations of that gentleman rashness, his ignorance of tho law, and more especially his interpretation of

The brave old Genoral at first contented himself with ovasivo answers, and said ho bad not yet accomplished what he had set out to do in Tennessee, and that ho would prefer to rc*main in his present position, and that he feared the public interests would not bo benefited by tho chango in tho commander of his department. Tho

President, however, was earnest and decided in his denunciations of Sheridan and his interpretation of tho Military bill.

Thu.s pressed, it became PurPoses*

General Thomas was advised of tho intention of tho President and ho immediately wrote and forwarded to General Grant, a positive protest against' any proceedings, in which he was sustained by Genoral Grant and Secretary Stanton, as ho was in the previous case. This is the situation of affairs at present, and it remains to be seen whether the President will be govorned by the councils of the last named gentleman or will attempt to accomplish his bad purposes by some now device2nd. our 1 ak,
