TIIQ
perffdious ingrato who occupics
the presidential chair, has severed all connection with the loyal element of the country, and surrounded himself vith rebels, copperheads and traitors. The bold patriots who risked their lives for tho preservation of tho government, aro displaced from positions of honor and profit, to make room for those who wero aiding and abetting traitors in their efforts to sever our glorious Union. The will of the peftplo, as expressed through ihcir representatives in Congress, is disregarded, and tho laws of 'our national legislature sot at defiance. The arbitrary will of a drunken President is substituted for the acta of a loyal Congress. This high-handed and unwarranted course of this modern "Moses," lias emboldoned tho -rebels of the £culh to sach a degrco, that they talk flippantly of another war, and their allies, tho copperheads of the North, oro endeavoring to aid them by advocating the repudiation of the national debt. This blending of treason with dishonesty is the programme on which tho adherents of such odious principles expect to obtain power. That there is a deep scheme of villainy concoctiDg by Andrew Johnson and his copperhead and robol supporters for the ruin of the nation, is becoming apparent to all observing men. Our latest intelligence from Washington is that even Gen. Grant has, within tho last few days, expressed fear that thero is trouble ahead, and has manifested great solicitudo in speaking of the pot.siblo and probable events of tho next three months. Gen. Grant is not a timid man, has facilities for observing the actions of Johnson and his venal associates, and with his natural reticence, would not givo utterunco to such declarations, without sufficient cause. Considering tho unscrupulous, designing, and ambitious men who have wormed themselves into tho confidence of tho Executive, and bccorne his advisers, there is much cause for alarm, and as eternal vigir lance is tho price of liberty, it behooves every patriot and friend of our beloved country to watch the courso of events, and be prepared for the crisis. Andrew Johnson has demonstrated to the satisfaction of every intelligent person that ho is a bold, bad man, having betrayed thoso who, believing in his professions of patriotism, elevated him to power and the man who will turn traitor to all of his professions to obtain power, will not scruple to strike a fatal blow at the liberties of his country to gratify a wicked ambition.
Our national affairs have indeed assumed a serious aspect, and lot no man deceivo himsolf, or treat with derision tho immineoco of trouble. To bo forearmed against danger wo must bo forewarned. We need not sayg a cotemporary, imagine that wo aro already Mexicanized but wo ought certainly to roflect that in a revolutionttry period, when tho country still trembles with civil war, and peaceful order is not yot restored, a desperate ignorant and obstinate Chief Magistrate may plunge us into very sorious difficulty.
Tho signs of tho times arc portentous—watch for the coming of tho storm.
-v,: Election*. In California the .Republicans, thinking themselves indomitable, run two ects of candidates, and tho result was tho defeat of both. The Copperheads having been out of office in that State for many years, took advantage of the divisions in the Ilepublican ranks and elected their candidates. Another 3?car will set all right in the Golden State.
In Maine tho Republicans olected their candidates for Governor, Lieutenant Governor, and three-fourths of the members of the Legislature. The majority for Governor was some fourteen thousand, and yet tho Copperheads aro claiming a victory and exulting over it.i-|In a small Stato like Maine, a reasonable person would suppose 12,000 or 14,000 a clever majority, but tho Copperheads think, if their party aro not beaten 50,000 or 100,000 they have triumphed. As thoy are so hard to satisfy, the Republicans propose to largely increase the majority next fall."

Tho President, Dr. S. J. Weldon, stated tho. object of the meeting In a few appropriate and well-timed remarks.

Col. S. C. Willson. being loudly called, stopped forward and addressed tho meoting in ono of .his happiest veins. Ho commenced his .remarks at tho very beginning of tho proposed undertaking, taking everything in detail from tho commencement until its abandonment by Lord, following up step by step his efforts to negotiate with other parties till ho met tho present company, with whom ho opened negotiations'which secured him triumph over opposition from every quarter. The Colonel during his remarks paid a glowing tribute to our respected friend, John E. Risloy, Esq., of I^ew York City, who used his influence and exertions in securing to our people this great thoroughfare. Our poople will hold Mr. Risley in grateful romemberance for this manifestation of his kind feeling towards us.

protest against tho romoval of Sheridan must be regarded as tho most extraordinary manifesto ofour time: rlts tone is so different from that which has hitherto como from General Grant —ho is so habitually cautions and conservative in what he says—that his emphatic and fervent appeal strikes ono with special significance. "I urge —earnestly urge—urgo in tho name of a patriotic peoplo who have sacrificed huudreds of thousands of lives and thousands of millions of treasure to preserve the integrity and union of tho country—that this order be not insisted on." Such is the impassioned language to which, for the first time, General Grant rises, all his previous official utterings being pitched in a proverbially low koy.
In this letter of Grant's every word
is gold on. He doclares that it is un- stood by tho pooplo.
mistakably the expressed wish of the country that General Sheridan should not be removed from, his pre^pnt command. This |s a"Republic tfrhero the will of the people is tho l$w of the land.

It must not be forgotten that while the democracy advocates repudiating the honest debts of the government, that party is loud in demanding that the Northern people shall pay the rebel slave holders for the entire body of slaves liberated during the war. Nor are they satisfied with this, but also insist that the rebel soldiers, their widows and orphans, shall be pensioned by the government. They talk about our taxes as a burden, and are at the same time trying to double them. A precious set of hypocrites!
GENERAL HANCOCK is very decided
in his opinion that a serious war exists on the Plains, and declares his belief that if the troops were withdrawn not a white man would remain in Colorado, and the great highways to the Pacific would be closed. The Indians, he says, are amply provided with the best modern weapons; even making use of the field glasses. The expenses of the department have so far been substantially those of a peace enlistment. He places the number of hostile Indians, engaged between the Arkansas and Platte, at ono thousand five hundred or two thousand.
Gov. Morton, in his Columbus, Ohio speech, gives, quite correctly, the new platform of the Democratic party. It is as follows:
"The repudiation of the National debt." "The restoration of slaves, or, if that can not be done, payment by the nation for the slaves." "Pensioning the soldiers' widows and orphans of the Confederate army." "Recognition of the right of secession." "And the unconditional return of rebels to political power."
With such a platform, the desperate and dangerous character of the Democratic party will be readily under stood by the people.
