A private dispatch from Wisconsin to Cincinnatti, says the Democratic Convention of that State will instruct for Pendleton. The President sent the follow-

ing noifiinations to the Senate on the 21st iust.: George B. Mc-Clellaik-to be Envoy Extraordiuav ry and Minister Plenipotentiary to England; Major General George H. Thomas, to be Lieut. General and General, by Brevet. *Secretary McCulloch favors a proposition to make Cincinnati, St. Louis and Chicago ports of entry, in which goods may be shipped in bond, from Atlantic seaports, by paying duties there. Horace Greeley has been lecturing in Indianapolis and Louisville, lately, on “Self-made Men.’’ Tlje Catholic Fair, held at Vincennes, in this State, week before last, netted the handsome sum of 82,522 10. Surratts trial has been postponed, and will probably not take place before the May Term. The California Legislature unanimously passed a resolution asking the President and Congress to honorably acqu ; re the annextion of British Columbia to the United States. The following State elections occur in the spring, v : z.: In New Hampshire on the second Tuesday in Ma’-ch, in Connecticut on the first Monday in April, and in Rhode Island on the first Wednesday in April. Spain is inaugurating a system of public and compulsory education. Admiral Farragut was at Genoa, week before last. He is received everywhere with marked attention. It is said the Emperor Napoleon has accepted an invitation from the Sultan of Turkey to visit Constantinople next summer. Capt. Bob. Lincoln, son of the late President, is reported to be engaged to be married to a daughter of ex-Senator Harris.

A dispatch dated Poughkeepsie, N. Y., Feb. 25, says Lieut. Col. Eastman has tendered the Adjutant General the services of the 21st regiment, of that District, to preserve the peace at Washington. The Regiment was to be ready in twenty-four hours. The Toledo Blade says it is stated on good authority that Colfax is compelled to resort to lecturing to get money enough to support himself—his position as Speaker of the House requiring av expenditure greater than his salary.' Wherefore he lectures to make both ends meet. Washington specials to New York papers states a letter has reached the President from General Sherman. It courteously indicates a preference for service outside of Washington. The Canadian Papal Zouaves arrived at New York on Friday last. en route to Rome. Judge Adams recently refused to allow negroes to serve on a Jury in Chattanooga, Tennessee.

LATEST FROM WASHINGTON. Our news from Washington is up to the evening of the 25th.— As our space will not admit of us publishing full particulars this week, we condense the telegraphic reports so as to give our readers a general outline of the situation. On the 21st inst., the President issued an order removing Secretary Stanton from the office of Secry of War. and appointed Adjutant General Thomas his successor, ad interim. The Senate being advised of the action of the President, immediately passed the following resolution: Resolved, That under the Constitution and laws of the United States the President has no power to remove the Secretary of War and designate any other officer to perform the duties of that office ad interim. On the 24th the President sent a message to Coimress, citing his authority for removing Stanton, and expressing a desire that the question be brought before the Supreme Court for final settlement. The same day the House passed a resolution that the “President of the United States be impeached for high crimes and misdemeanors,” by a vote of 120 yeas, to 47 nays. On the 25th, at half past 2 o’clock, the House appeared in the Senate and read the resolution of impeachment passed by that body the day previous. The notification was received in silence. As yet no action has taken place. Stanton refused to surrender the War office to General Thomas, and up to-Tuesday evening still had possession. His meals are served to him at the Department. Thomas is reported to be under arrest and guarded by a battalion of soldiers. negroes and leading Radicals are jubilant over the prospects of impeachment and another civil war. The Radical State Convention. The Radical party of Indiana held their State Convention, at Indianapolis, on the 20th inst. Their efforts to bring out a large attendance were partially successful, but they did not seem as enthusiastic or as sanguine of success as some such gatherings have manifested heretofore.

They resolved in favor of the Congressional plan of reconstruction and negro suffrage in the South ; popular sovereignty in the Northern States, (subject to the on the suffrage question ; economy—save the mark!— in public expenditures; greenbacks for bonds, ‘-except where other wise provided;” bounties, pensions and land for soldiers and sailors; to protect naturalised citizens,; Grant for President and Colfax for VicePresident; opposed the payment of the Rebel debt, and endorsed Morton. The following unfortunate individuals were nominated for the respective State offices: For Governor, Conrad Baker; for Lieut. Governor, William Cumback; for Secretary of State, T. A. Hoffman; for Auditor of State, J. D. Evans; for Treasurer of State, Gen. Nathan • Kimball; for Clerk of the Supreme Court, T. W. McCoy ; for Reporter of the Supreme Court, J. B. Black; tor Attorney General, D. E. Williamson; for Superintendent of Public Instruction. B. C. Hobbs. ••Root Ilog or Die. This is Mr. Greeley’s answer to the supplications of starving white inhabitants of the States formerly in rebellion. It is the white people only whom the Tribune leaves to “root hog or die,” the destitute negroes being provided for at the Bureau. Mr. Greeley's sympathies were warm and active in favor of the rebel leaders, Davis and Breckinridge. It was “cruel” to keep the former in prison, and the latter in eidle. But to their followers, the victims of their treason, who are now naked and.hungry, Mr. Greeley exclaims, “root hog or die.” Thurluw Weed. St. Joseph, Michigan, shipped in 18af7 four hundred thousand baskets of peaches, fifty tons of grapes, and seventeen thousand bushels of small fruits. Seven years ago in that region there was neither grapes nor small fruits, and not over one» hundred acres of peach orchard in bearing condition.

GREAT INCITEMENT IN WASHINGTON. Stanton Removed-Adjutant General Thomas his Sue- _ cessor—Radical Senators Advise Stanton to Resist the Authority of the President. Washington, February 21 The President to-day sent au executive message to the Senate, stating that on the 12th of August last, under authority vested in him by the Constitution of the United States, he suspended Edw in M. Stanton as Secretary of War, and now by the same authority he had removed Stanton and appointed in his place ad interim Adjutant General Lorenzo Thomas. The President encloses the communication sent to Messrs. Stanton and Thomas, The Speaker laid before the House to-day, the following correspondence. War Department, ) Washington Feb 21, 1868. J Sir-: General Thomas has just delivered to me a copy of the enclosed order, which you will please communicate to the House of Repl-esentatveg. Your obedient servant, E. M. Stanton, Sect’y of War. To Hon. Scheyler Colfax, Speaker of the House of Representatives. Executive Mansion, )» Washington, Feb.. 21,1868. j Sir : By virtue of the power and authority vested in me as President of the Constitution and laws of the United Skates, you are hereby removed from office as Secretary of War, and your functions as such will terminate upon receipt of this communication. You will transfer to Brevet Major General L. Thomas, Adjutant General of the army, who will act as Secretary of War ad interim, all records books, papers and other publio property iu your custody and charge, r r , • Very fespeJHuTly yours, Andrew Johnson, President. To the Hon. E. M. Stanton.

Senators Thayer, Cameron, Chandler and Cottell, this afternoon, had an interview with Mr. Stanton and expressed to him the desire that lie would not surrender his post, in obedience to the order of the President, until the Senate should act upon the matter, and Mr. Stanton indicated compliance with their wish. It is not, therefore, as represented this evening, that Mr. Stanton made no objection to Adjutant General Thomas entering upon the duties of Secretary of War. It is true however, that General Thomas showed to Mr. Stanton his order of appontmeut from the President and to this the General received a respectful but not satisfactory reply. The Senators above named, after leaving Stanton, had an interview with General General Grant relating to him ttfeir-views as to what his conduct should be in the premises. After the Senators had parted with. Stanton, the latter sent to the House a copy of the letter addressed to him by the President, which was read and referred to the Committee On Reconstruction. The Committee will have a meeting to-morrow to consider this as well as the subject of impeachment proposed by Representative Covode. The Senate, a few minutes after two o’clock, went into executive session, and continued therein seven hours. The matter of removal was fully discussed, and with much spirit. Mr. Edmunds offered a resolution for which Mr. Wilson moved a substitute as follows: Whereas, The Senate have received and considered the communication of the President, stating that he had removed Edwin M. Stanton as Secretary of War, and has designated the Ajutant General of the Army to act as Secretary of War ad interim, therefore, Resolved by the Senate of the United States, That under the constitution and laws of the United .States, the President has no power to remove tbe Secretary of War and designate any other officer to perforn tbe duties of that office. This substitute was agreed to without a division. The injunction of secresy was removed from it, and copies of the resolution were ordered to be communicated to the President, Secretary of War and Adjutant General Thomas. Many persons were attracted to the vicinity of the Senate to-night but were prevented from entering the galleries. Tim subject of the removal of Mr. Stanton, and other matters 1 connected with it, were the prominent feature of comment. Secretary Stanton still retains possession of the War Department, and was there at a late hour tonight.

Itis said that the Emperor of the French, recently, at the first ball of the Tuileries, laughed very heartily at the American Minister, General Dix, who was conversing quite seriously with one bf the secret police spies, who attended the ball in the dazzling uniform of a Belgian officer,

Abundance of Game in Florida. —A correspondent of the Philadelphia Bulletin, writing from Jacksonville, Fla. thus refering to the wild game of that region—“lt is almost impossible to refer to the ghuntin and fishing of this quarter without subjecting one’s self to the suspicion of Munchausenism.— Game and fish are exceedingly abundant, and on such a scale as I at least was a stranger to until arriving here. An intelligent and reliable gentleman from New Hampshire told me a few days ago that as he came down the preceeding week from Hibernia, some twenty miles further south, a flock of wild ducks, miles in length and at least half a mile wide followed the steamboat. The ducks, I mean many of them, alighted on the boat and captured by the negro employees on the vessel. Others were shot in very large quantities. They were as fat as butter. The same boat caught two deers as they swam across the river. I could not help thinking what a rush there would be among the sporting men of your city if they could get access to such game by the mile! I walked down to the St. John’s the the other day, but a few rods from my door, with a friend, and iu half an hour we caught with our hooks seven huge catfish, weighing altogether some fifteen or twenty pounds. Every now and then I see from my window afishing boat at night, sailing on the river, with a peculiar red light in it. This light, lam told, attracts the fish, especially mullet, which leap into the boat in quantities sufficient to fill. In these cases the look before the leap don’t seem practical utility. The World at Home.—The following notice of this new candidate for public favor we copy from the Philadelphia Evening Telegrdfth, as embodying our ideas of tliis Magazine. The World at Home is the title of a magazine published by Evans & Co., of this city, the first number of which appeared in January. The February number is before us, and is fully equal to any of its contemporaries. It is filled with sprightly and interesting reading matter contains sketches, serials and graver articles. It is abundantly illustrated aud is well printed. In size it surpasses almost any of its contemporaries. The newcomer has our warmest wishes for its success, and our anticipations for its future are most sanguine. The peculiarly of this excellent magazine which marks*it as an enterprising undertaking, is that with each subscription is given a sealed order entitling the holder to one of numerous valuable gifts—as silk dresses, shawls furs, and the like. The publication office is 814 Chestnut street.

Poor Grant.—ln one of General Grant’s letter in the now famous “correspondence” reference is made to his intention to wait upon Mr. Stanton and advise Jiim to resign. He further states that he did call, but finding it “useless,” he refrained from touching the subject. The very natural inquiry is necessarily uppermost in everybody's thought, how the General ascertained that it would be “useless” to suggest this particular mode of settling all “unpleasantness.” I have it in my power to gratify public curiosity upon this point. When Grant entered the Secretary’s room Stanton was surrounded by a promisuous crowd among whom were several prominent radicals. Grant had not reached a chair, when the autocrat of the War Department, fastening a commanding eye upon him, exclaimed : “I know what you have came for. You need not mention it.” The General was instantly reticent, and soon after withdrew, to the utter astonishment of some and the amusement of others, among the latter of whom was my informant.— Washington Letter Baltimore Gazette. A Western paper says that Dickens lias a sister-in-law residing in Chicago, the widow of Augustus Dickens, who was a clerk in the Illinois Land Office for some tenor twelve years, and died two or three years ago. Augustus was tbe favorite brother of Charles, in the time of his early literary triumphs, and it was from him that he derived his nom de plume of Boz. Mrs. Dickens, it is added, is keeping a boarding-house, and is barely able to support herself and children. The Denver News describes a novel entertainment there; “A series of religious dances, as prac tised amoug the Indians in the days of Montezuma, and handed down to the present day in tradition. The dances were performed by fifteen Mexicans, who were dressed in suits of marig colors, their faces covered with masks according to custom, while they made music from instruments more primitive than melodeons —the gourd shell”

Royal Salaries.—The salaries of the different, Monarchs of Eu rope are stated as follows by a German statistician: Per year. Per Day. Alexander 11 < $8,250,000 $25,000 Abdul Axil 6,600,000 18,000 Napoleon 111 5,700,000 14,2-10 Francis Joseph * 4,000,000 10,950 Frederick William I 3,000,000 8,200 Victor Emanpel 2,400,000 6.810 Victoria 2,200,000 «.029 Isabella II 1,800,000 4.921 Leopold II 600,000 1,640 In addition to this salary, each of these individuals is furnished a dozen or more first-class houses to live in, without any charge for rent. Contrast with these immense sums the §25,000 per annum paid to the President of the United States (and he always gets rich on it, too.) a country equaling in population those of any of the sovereigns above mentioned, except Russia, and excelling them all in real power! We have some things after all, upon which to congratulate ourselves. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS SADDLE & HARNESS SHOP. R.
