TRo Kent Uueation at l**uo In Use l»ni»oacliuient Xrlul. The Washington correspondent of the Clnciunati Enquirer says the real question at Issue in the impeachment trial is ‘‘not whether President Johnson is guilty, as charged, but whether General Grant shall bff placed on trial. Ills gratifying to know that enough Senators sustained the President’s counsel to defeat conviction.” The character of the evidence which the President's counsel attemptedto introduce on Monday confirms the statement that General Grant Is to be put on trial, if the testimony they wish to introduce Is admitted. During the examination of General Sherman, the following question was asked him by Mr, Stanrery: “Alter the restoration of Mr. Stanton, did you form an opinion as to the desirability, or as to the good “f the service, of the office of Secretary of War being tided by another than Mr. Stiiiton? If so, did you express your opinion to the President! 1 ” The Senate, by a vote of 15 to 35, refused to admit the testimony. What possible wrong could come from an answer to that question, if the Senate desire a fair trial and get at the tacts in the case? Would not an answer go far to show the considerations which infhi. cnccd the President in his desire for the rtmoval of Stanton—in fact, his intention in wishing a change In the War Department? When objection was made by the Managers to the admission of such testimony, Mr. Stanbery reraarkoJ: “The question of Intent was of vital importance. Tney did not offer this testimony as an abstract opinion, but as the judgment loomed and expressed by the second officer of the service, for Its good. Ha referred to the relations existing between tbe President and Stanton, and claimed it was competent to prove that distinguished Generals, like Grant and Sherman, believed a change should be made in the interest of the Government. He appealed earnestly to the Senate, for tbe sake of Justice, to admit the evidence.” It is well known that both Generals SuerMan and GRANT advised Mr. STANTON, after bis restoration t) the War Office by the action of the Senate, tint the public interesta would be promoted by bis resignation. lo fact the brief administration of that department by General Grant demonstrated that *uch would be tbe case, for it will bo remembered that he cut down the expenses material y in that branch of the service. There is no doubt but both of the diat ngulshed Generals named, If the t estimony bad been admitted, would have answer' d the question puttoGeneral Sherman in the affirmative. And if that bad been done it would have gone far to remove any doubt as to the intent of the President in bis effirt to remove Stanton, to-wit: the good of the public service. And what did the President tell General Sherman in regard to tbe molives which Influenced him in his desire to get rid of Stanton? General Sherman, la his testimony, thus puts it: “ The Presid' nt told me the relations between himself and Mr. Stanton, and between Mr. Stanton and tbe other members of the Cabint t were such th»t be could not execute tbe office be filled, as President of tbe Unite I States, 'Vithout making provision, ad interim, tor the office of Secretary of War, and that he had a right, under tbe law, and that it was his purpose to have tbe office admiolstered in tbe totere-t of the army and of the country; and be assured me that his purpose waa to bring it Into tbe courts diiectiy, and for tbe purpose of having tbe office administered properly, in the interests of the army and of the whole counflry. [S.nsatlon in court.] ” And further, in the second interview between tbe President and Genera) Sherman in regard to the removal of Stanton, the latter thus testifies: The second interview, on the afternoon of the 30th—not the 31st, as the question reads — was the interview during which he made the point which I have testified to, and in speaking or referring to the constitutionality of the bill known as the Tenure-of-OUice act, he said it was tbe constitutionality of that bill which he seemed desirous of having decided when he said if it could be brought before the Supreme Court properly, it would not stand half an hour. He also spoke of force. 1 Ur.-t said that if Mr. Stanton would simply retire, although it was against my lnterei-t, my desire, mv personal wishes, aud my official wishes, I might be willing to undertake to admlnlrtsr tbe office ad interim. Then be supposed that tbe point was yielded, and I made this point: “ Supposing, Mr. Stanton will not yield?” and he answered, ‘ Oh, lie will intku no opposition; you present tbe order, aud he will retire.” I expressed my doubt, and he remarked: “I know him better than you do; he is cowardly.” And there Is no doubt but Stanton would have given way if Sherman had accepted the position, just as he did when GRANT made the demand for the cilice. There is no evidence that the President Intended the use of force to get possession of the office, and the fact that ho finally appointed Lorenzo Thomas, a superanuated officer, who perphaps never entertained an idea of revolution. Is still further evidence that Mr. Johnson Intended to use only moral agencies to accomplish his ourposc, relying, also, upon the well known cowardice or Stanton. The evidence introduced by the President can not, so far as its development has been permitted, implicate; Grant in the complications of the War Depirlcnent, and if all offered had been admitted by the Senate, it would have placed the General of the Army in the position of sustlining the President in bis determination to place some one in the War Office acceptable to himself and to the other members ot the Cabinet. In this connection it miy not be amiss to state that the Democracy do not sustain the President in his Issue with Congress from personal or party considerations, for he is not ideot fled with tbe Democratic party, but upon principle. If there were just reasons for the removal of the President, the Democratic Sen it irs would aid It by their votes, but as there Is no evidence to sustain the articles of Impeachment and the attemot to r*move the President is dictated by party considerations, honest men must oppose an act of Injustice. It is evident, also, from the rulings of Judge Chase that he doss not Intend to act as a partisan, but an upright judge, and when the trial Is ended, whatever may be its result, bis judicial ermine will not be soiled by surrendering tbe right to party expediency or neces■itles. We believe that the Chief Justice Is opposed to conviction under the articles of impeachment , and his standing as a jurist, con nected with hie patty affiliations, will have great weight with tbe country, for the trial is not only before the Senate, but the people of the United States, All honor to the judge who can rise above party and do right. brown County.-The Democratic vote In this county was increased at the township election. At tbe Democratic primary election the following ticket was put In nomination: For Treasurer, William H. T.ggart; for Recorder, D. Marcellos; for Sheriff, Ren 8. Brummett; for Coroner, William G. WaUonfor Appraiser, A. S. Anderson, ’
senator Wade. * “There are Republican newspapers that believe the Prertdeit guilty of crime, and favor impeachment, bnt they hate the idea of Mr. Wade becoming the Acting President, and this has no better ground than mere personal feeling. No one need ever be at a loaa aa to where to find Senator Wade on any of tbe great questions that have agitated the
country.”
The above comes from the Cincinnati Gazette, a radical organ of the most ultra stripe. In addition to the above, that paper says Mr. Wade can not be robbed “of the splendid reputation he has fairly won for honesty and consistency as a statesman, and strict Integrity
as a man.”
What is bis consistency as a statesman? He is on tha record in favor of tbe doctrine of secession, and In 1856 he gave the Southern secessionists aid and comfort In their disunion threats. In a speech in the Senate that year, he avowed himself a dfsunlonist, and he declared that “if it (the Union) endangers their institutions to such an extent that they esn not feel secure under It,” he was not “one of those who would ask them to continue in such a Union,” and for tbe reason that it would be doing violence to the platform ol the party to which he belonged. He further said: “We have adopted the old Declaration of Independence as the basts of our political movements, which declares that any people, when their Government ceases to protect their rights, when it so perverted from the true purposes of government as to oppress them, have the right to reevr to fundamental principle*, and, \t need be, destroy the Government under which they live, and to erect on it* ruin* another more conducive to their welfare I will not blame any people for exercising it whenever they think me emer-
geocy has come.”
The Southern people thought that the exigency which Mr. Wade so forcibly states bad come, and they attempted to secede from the Union on the platform of the Senator and tbe party to which he belonged. They endeavored to exercise the right, which Senator Wade said he would not blame any people
for exercising.
Now, we ask the Cincinnati Gazette, if the position of Senator Wade, when and alter the South attempted to leave the old Union and erect a “government more conducive to their welfare,” is consistent with what that paper claims for him, a splendid leputation for honesty and consistency as a statesman? The Gazette says: “No one need be at a loss as to where to find Senator Wade on any of tbe great questions that have agitated the country.” No one was at a loss in that regard in 1856. The South tJok him and his party at their word. They did Just what he said he would not blame any people for doing. Did Senator Wade prove true to his “honesty and consistency as a ttiteamen!” No He was faithless to bis avowed convictions and principles. He advocated force, coercion, to prevent a people from doing what he and his party said they had the right to do under the principles wbicn they contended our Government is based. Who then is responsible for tbe terrible civil war which ensued, with Us vast cost in blood and treasure? Is It not Senator Wadk and the party to which he belongs? Senator Wade has no honor or consistency as statesman. He is dishonest—destitute alike of principle and integrity. Upon his own reccord, ho and his party are respon- | Bible for the vast debt which burburdens the industry of the Nation. They stand convicted, from their own standpoint, of inaugurating an unjust and iniquitlous war and are responsible for ail tbe evils which have grown out of it. Such is the record of the man for whom the Gazette claims a splendid reputation for honesty and consistency as a statesman and strict integrity as a man. II he bad malnt lined that character be should have been on the side of t he rebel-
lion.
Pcmicai item*. —Tbe constitutions of three of the New England Stiies, to wit: Maine, New Hampshire, and Massachusetts, expressly except paupers from the privilege ef the franchise; end no throe States are more persistent In Insisting that none but black paupers shall vote In ten of the Southern States. —The Cincinnati Time* remarks thitwlth rare consistency the New York Tribune declares that “toe must have revenue," end st the same time pronounces the income tax unconstitutional, and demands Hi repeal I With the excises abolished, the whisky tax removed, whence will come the revenue which
we must have?
Secret Political Urganlzatlon*, The Journal Is terribly exercised over a secret political organlzottdh In tbe South known as “Kluklux Klin,” and its fevered imagination pictures all sorts of evils to grow out of it, but it has not a word to say in condemnation of the “Union Leagues,” a secret political society organized throughout tbe South, or of the murders committed by the black leaguers. A few days ago tbe telegraph related tbe murder of John 1*. Howard, a one armed ex-confederate soldier, shot from his horse and instantly killed, about four miles from Selma, Alabama. It was added, “this Is the filth white man murdered in this immediate vicinity since the war, and no one has yet been arrested.” Did the Journal expresses any horror over this crime? U is, bowever, terribly excited over tbe murder of Ashman, In Georgia, and attempts eloquence in its denunciation of tbe Georgia chivalry for alleged participation in tbit crime. The radical papers are silent in reference to the outrages of all kinds committed by tbe white and black radicals of the South, and in consequence of the severity of military rule, only a lew are published to the world; but occasionally some of tbe doings of the leaguers come to light. At a public procession and meeting of negroes at Macon, Georgia. on Mnrcb 30, the “loyal blacks” carried a banner, on which the figure ol a negro, cut in pasteboard, hung dangling from agailowi, and to which was attached, on a piece of white paper, the following inscription: “Every man that don’t vote a radical ticket this is the way we want to do bim-haog him by the neck.” These radical loyal league negroes boldly proclaimed, too, that tbe negro who failed to register, should receive thirty-nine lashes; If be (ailed to vote at the election, two hundred lashes, and if he voted the Democratic ticket hs should be hanged. When such demonstrations are permitted by the military rulers in the South, Is It any wonder t at the conquered whites are murdered and outraged with impunity, and the rascals who commit the deeds go free? There are two sides to the outrages in the South, but the Journal and its radical friends in the North only grow indignant when injury is done to some one of their politics! faith. The Africanization of the South under radical rule must necessarily tend to anarchy, and unless there is some immediate relief, the blacks in the South will fast relapse into tbe barbarism of their race, whenever lelt to themselves.
—Greeley declared the hardest blow rebellion received was the re-election of Hr. Lincoln, which aatd no com promise. As Greeley opposed the renomination of Mr. Lincoln, and wu for compromising “upon the best attainable terms” after a certain three months’ struggle, he can’t claim much part in dealing the blow, not withstanding his propensity for blowing. —A colored veteran from Virginia was haranguing General Grant a day or two alnce, and telling him what must be done instantly if he expected any colored votes in Virginia. W hen he had reached this point in hi* discourse, tbe General rang the bell and directed an orderly to show him the way out. Of coarse, after thus treating a colored gentleman, the General will abandon all Idea of the Presidency. —The New York World figures up a probable Democratic majority in the next electoral college, claiming for the opponent of General Grant the following States: California, Connecticut. Delaware, Indiana, Maryland, Kentucky, Nebraska, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Oregon, and Pennsylvania. These States together give 138 electoral votes, only 124 being necessary to an election. It seta down New York as good for 77,000 Democratic mejority. —A cotemporary makes the following Inquiry: But while the radical Republican party claims that the negro shall have the right to vote and bs eligible to all polUlcal offices, State and Federal, only because he is taxed, it assumes to take away the same right from several millions of white citizen* of the United States, whom It still holds subject to taxation, without representation, and who sre taxed accordingly. Will not the people of the country demand to be Informed why, If negroes are to be made voters because they are taxed, white citizens, who are also taxed, shall be deprived of the ballet, representation in Congress, and eligibility to offices? Perhaps. —As General Grant’s name wa* mainly relied upon by the radicals In Connecticut to carry that State, in the language of the Tribune “we have assurance* from Washington that Genet's! Grant finds It not inconsistent with bis duty as a soldier t) announce It as his opinion that” if his name is no better In other States than in Connecticut, the sooner that name is withdrawn from tbe coming presidential canvass tbe better; and, as the Tribune continue^, “when the General of our armies entert tins this conviction, there Is no room for doubt” in the minds of other less interested
| people.
—When the impeachment clause was under discussion in the convention which framed the Constitution of the United States, M. Governeur Morris expressed hiartotf as follows: “Much has been said of tbe Intrigues that will be formed by the Exocutlve to get Into office. Nothing has been said of the Intrigues toget him out.” Charles Coleswortb Pinckney said: “If he opposes a favorite law both Houses will combine against him, and under the influence of heat and faction, will throw him out of office.” Thoee two great men foresaw tho dangers which beset tbe Republic
tc-day.
Indiana Legislature.—Tho Cincinnati Enquirer makes tbe following speculations In regard to the political character of the next Legislature. Tbe following exhibit demonstrates the p-aeticabillly of tbe next Legislature being D-mocratic, without leaving anv room to doubt the result:
senate.
Judge Curtis’ Speecla. Mack, the Washington correspondent of the Cincinnati Commercial, thus describes Judge Curtis and his opening speech in defense of the President: The opening speech for tho defense was a quiet and grave reminder of a sort of leg il eloquence that was trite forty years ago. It brought to mind, in Us stately periods, dispassionately, rationally, concisely uttered, the days of Marshall, Kent, and Story. Mr. Curtis Is a man without a smile or a trifle. 8 unber is bis vesture, purple is his color. He is very like Daniel Webster In stature, face, and manner. He seldom walks in any body’s company—but with a slow, deliberate stride, leaning on a cane, he comes alone to tbe Capitol, ponderously mounts tbe steps, wipes his forehead in the anteroom, and, entering the Senate, sits In a condition of vigilant retirement, like a turkey goboier bottling up bis rage and working bis craw. He exchanges no words wita his legal brethren. If he Is introduced to any body In any pause or recess, he shakes hands with that gravity that Webster used to revel In. He weighs about a hundred and ninety pounds, perhaps more. Nature gave him a good, large, Websterian head; and bis lace Is a fine eld liveroolor. He perspires with great freedom, but never through excit 'meat. His paunch is ■lately; his cloth gaiters are eminently legal; no gold seal disturbs the demureness of his vest; his blue eyes retrestlntohls brows, and his head into his standing collar, and be listens like a phosphorescent bull dog la a dark cellar. Such t» Judge Curtis, with the additions of .traight, brown hair, aud a lace smoothly haven.

put bis hands on the baiz tsble, looked his gloomy grandest, and began with the manner of a luneral oration. His voice is not ttroug, but naturally trained by tbe tempermeut of the man, and pitched upon the same easy key, it reaches the ear very pleasantly a'nd strives to do no more. As it carried so its calm burden of argument at an equal pace, tbe minds of all of us lelt the domain of politics, and rose with its cadences into the atmosphere of law. Insensibly ws all began to leerthAt General Butler’s speech, which we all had supposed a great p rformance, had been no more tban a smart audacity. This old-time man, never in a burry, never in aeal, addressed himself to the supposition that bis auditors __ were all learned and self-respecting gentlemen. Every time he said “Sen ators I” he made a cold chlU go through tbe Senate; for during tbe past two weeks onc-half the Senator* have forgotten taeir rank. I venture the supposition that this speech got more respect in every Senator’s silent mind tban any utterance of ois own has had for a year past. I did not follow it closely enough to tell you tbe effect of It as an argument. But it did this, which Butler, Stanoer*, Wilson, and Bingham;had failed tj do—it reminded the Senate of Itself and of tbe occasion. Everything that had been said before grew little and mean after Curtis bad talked an bour. In all tbat time be never changed his place, never faltered for a word, nor used any undignified expression whatsoever. Judge Chu* heard the argument with the gravest care. It was a study to look at the Cnief Justice and the aolid old pleader, taking his tune ao tremendously. —A Louisville sportsman recently bagged one hundred and six anlpes, In a lew hours shooting near Vincennes.

Mrs. Waller stopped hi that city, and other members of tbe company gravitated toward Champagne City. —George Noble, son of Thomas G.

He is hale, hearty, good looking and apparently good for forty years more of Lafayette life. Cale. Scudder is ihe gentleman referred to.—Lafayette Journal. Not much. Doc.

—A Honey Creek Township farmer Inform* us that he has sixty acres In wheat, and that It is so badly winter-killed that he does not anticipate a third of a crop. He reports the wheat throughout the southern portion of the county «as very poor In prospect.—Terre

A Honey Creek farmer is probably an inveterate croaker, or else tbe Honey Creek region Is an exception to other parte of the State. From all we can learn, tbe wheat is generally
looking and doing well.
The Shooting at Salem.—A special dispatch to the New Albany Commercial give* the following account of tho recefit shooting
affray at Salem:
Great excitement prevails at this place, produced by one of those tragedies for which it has of late become t io noted. On Saturday night a young ruffian named Henry Clark shot and fatally wounded Mr. George Telle, an old highly respected citizen, far advanced
in life.
Clark also shot and severely wounded» young man named “Buna” (Buena Vista) Dunham, a nephew of Colonel C. L. Dunham* Clark was arrested and put in jail, where he now is, but great fears are entertained that he will be taken out and hanged, such is the ex-
asperation of tbe people.
Henry Clark, tha perpetrator of the tragedy mentiored in the above dispatch, is a young man noted about Salem aa a desperado and ruffian. He haa on several occasion# been goilty of the most outrageous coaduct. At one time, we are laformed, he shot at an old man while on horseback, and In turning to ride away, rode over a child, Injuring it so that it died. He on one occasion pursued a man in this city, attempting to cut him with a bowls knife, tor which he waa arrested and
taken before the police court.

to do BO. I * ,f -J VJ Burr was then the most execrated man In America. Seven months berore he had killed Hamilton, in colder blood tban James Barton afterward wrote his biography., The pulpits and ficesidegof the land analhematUvd him as II he were a Satan on eartb. Between the duel and the trial he had fled from-State to State; two Indictments for murder against him. and Middenly re-appearing In Washington, still Vice President of the United States, bs met the scorn of the ctpHoi unblushlngly. It was within one month of the expiration of bis term—the end of hia political life—except when, a year later, be himself, fortune reversed, but audacity Atilltjie same, stood at tbe felon’s bar', indicted for trekSotf. * ’ ^ To mage his last appearance as President of the Senate a dramatic spectacle, he ordered the Senate Chamber to be draped with blue cloth, add, moving up tiro Seats of tbe Senators to a close semUcUete around his chair, divided and subdivided, tbe superiors behind, so that all the dignitaries, foreign and national, should contribute, In their successive ranks, to make thqahnw, iropQajng. Ip enlarged tempocary galleries the spectators sat, ledlss being particularly accommodated; for Bun's mind waa never oblivious of a woman’s presence. It was, to the carnal eye, a tar more effective spectacle than this ef today, where the groat, half dark, over glided Senate hall confuses the clearest eloquence, and every figure sits in InnUUnct light or distance. Then the Senate Chamber was contract :d, yet high; every face was plain, every word audible; and Burr was the incredible character of the age—Belial and Bohemian together—the best blood and the best virtue of the conn try crying against him for vengeance, but round bU bead the halo ot talent, and tho rarest dignity and beauty. Compare the two prendlng officers. In origin they were not unlike: both ef New England stock, both brought up In a clergyman’s family and educated at two colleges of rival antiquity and rank, Dartmouth and Princeton. Burr was one of the originators of that Northern Democracy which, In Judge Chase’s time, has overthrown tbe national influence of Virginia, the enemy of both of them. Tho subsequent oourse of Burr in hts flllibustermg dream was down tbe Ohio, part many a town in which Judge Chase has epuken, and past Cincinnati, the Chief Justice’s home. When Burr presided, Judge Chase was barely out of his mother’s arms. Burr was then foity-nlno years old. “He conducted tbe trial,” says a newspaper file, “with tbe dignity and impartiality of an angel, but with tbe rigor of a devil.” His eyes were piercing black, sighted rather than shaded by black, arrowy-straight lashes. Smooth shaven and bis powdered hair combed straight back to a ribboned queue, hs showed, in all its flueaess, his protile—tbe high receding forehead, tbe long, nearly straight, sharp-pointed nose, the Arm, large mouth, thin Upped above, sensual beneath, tbe combative and audacious cbln and throat, and, over alt, the perfect repose, yet intensity. His complexion was clear brown and white, his eyebrows arched, black and delicate. Around bis throat a snowy cravat was buttoned, his coat waa buttoned across the breast; In his expression tbe thoughtiulnee* of Jonatban Edwards, bis CalvtnUUc grandfather, showed with all bis own cold-blooded composure. Grace, carriage, address, alertness were equal In him, and ail perfection. Tne fallen angel Vice President In beaven be looked, the rest culpritof ibis court, though master of It, and proud of bis bad smlaence. As a judge we can get at bis fitness by bis definition ol £law: “Law is whatever is boldly asserted and plausibly maintained.” Judge Cba-e, so far from bsfng vigorous and keen as Burr, is very modest and reserved upon tbe bench,there being about biin less of tbe adventurer than about any public man in tbe country. He has won the best opinions (rom all non-partisan*. SOME QUESTIONS OF PROTUIETY. As an uninterested looker-on upon this trial, I desire to aek if Mr. Richard Yates, Senator from Illinois, means to vole pro or con upon the President’s eonvlcilon. 1 know tt is useless to ask this question ot Mr. Howard and the Provost guard of the Senate, who would have Sir. Yates’ dead body brought in and compelled to vote “aye,’’ If they bad their own way. But 1 ask Sir. Yates himse.lt, as a lawyer aud • fair min, if he proposes to | vote as a juror wbea be na* been absent from tbe Senate nearly all tbe trial. Where he has been is none of my business, but that of bis eonsutuent", who, i uuderrt»nd, are exercising their minds considerably thereabout. Nor is itmv business to ask in whose company Mr. Yates has been traveling, sublimely indifferent to bis oatb, bis duty, or bis example. To-day be was back In his seat. To-day be voted against an adjournment, strictly with bis party, thus manifesting a disposition to come in at the eleventh hour In time to make bis veto count. If it be right for a juror, sworn ta rsndcr impartial justice, to go on a roaring “time” in tne midst of tnis grave trial, then I aubmlt tbat ex|>«n*e would h*vetiF«n spared and coustsii m > suffered nothing,'if the Tftniffe hid convicted without any trial at alt. The Illinois delegation, I understand, have requested Mr. Yates to resign. He certainty will.not vote to convict Mr. Jobnson for making intemperate speeches, who has t«en liltasoif loo 11 temperate to make any speeches whatever. But 1 suppose tbat Mr. Yalea can vote and suffer no more in bis own esteem than he suffers siready. I should prefer, If 1 were Mr. Johnson, vo bo convicted by a man like this, bull, where every vote Is so precious upon tbe result, 1 make the interrogation of tho public’s self-respect, to know Wfivther they will sus-
tain It?
GOOD LISTENERS.
The best iietsers throughout this whole trial have been Sprague. Keverdy Johuaon, Buckalew, Hendricks, Williams, of Oregon, Morrill, of Maine, Goorge Vickers. John Sherman, and Morton. I have not at any time
letters, read trial. Mr.

an attorney for tbe prosecution, taking not-s, consulting the rulee and tbe points of Indictment, and whispering now and then to Chandler, at his side.
