IMPEACHMENT ENDED. It is probable that the great cause of "all the people of the United States" against Andrew Johnson, has ended. The cowardly majority in the senate bas, after the acquittal of the president on the ! eleventh, second and third articles, post-: pooed further action in the case sine die. Whenever and under whatever set of circumstances this greatest of all farce3 may be renewed, it has received the seal of condemnation from the thinking masses of the people ; and the miserable subter- I fuge of postponing it now only make9 the damnation of the political tricksteis j and assassins of free government in the senate more sure. The impeachers have moved heaven and earth to compass their toul ends, and have failed ; and, not con-i tent witn accepting fneir deteat, they are accusing their ablest and most honora ble senators of being bribed, simply be cause these senators chose to obey the die- i

tateg ol their own consciences rather than the negro suffrage question in Ohio, and the behests of the most corrupt party that other northern states, and well know their has ever been in power since the world j fate if it were imposed on them indiscrimbegan. The radical party, instead of at- inately j but the southern states are to be tempting the ruin of the seven republi- ground down and made to bow the knee to can senators who voted for the president's j the almighty negro, simply because they acquittal, should enroll their names high ! have the power, and by so doing they can on the scroll of fame, as the seven who j control the southern vote for years to saved their country from destruction by'eome. Negro suffrage, negro equality, their obedience to the requirements of negro supremacy, are to bo inflicted with-

their oaths. The utter depths of degradation and j infamy to which radical leaders have de- i scended is demonstrated by the persecution which they are heaping upon their Lite associates. If such men as Trumbull and Messenden can be bribed, there is salvation for the balance of the party. Impeachment is dead. no VLTS8E8. The radicals have put their candidates in the field. Grant and Colfax are familiar names to the public, but still their record will bear touching upon. The quali fications possessed bv Hiram Ulysses for ' the presidential office aro, according to ; , J - radicals, numerous ; chief among which ! is what they are pleased to term his "avail-1 ability." What this availability consists j in we are at a Toss to determine, unless it is his great popularity with the Jewish population of the country. The manner in which ihis popularity was gained is fully explained in the following order: General Orders No. 11. IIeadq'rs 13tii Army Corps, Department ov Tennessee, v Oxford, Miss., Dec. 17, 18b2. ) The Jews as a class, violating every regulation of trade established by the Treas ury Department, also department i rders, arc hereby expelled from thc department withiu twenty-four hours from receipt of this order by post commanders. They j will see that all this class of peopie are furnished with passes and required to leave and any returning after such notification will be arrested and held in confinement until an opportunity occurs to end them out rs prisoners, unless furnished with permits from these headquarters. No passer, rill be given these peopie to a isit headquarters for the purpose of ma king personal application for trade per mita. By order of Maj. Gen. Grant." The radicals doubtless imagine that their party lines are drawn wnu such firm and skillful hands that Jews who have heretofore acted with them will still obey the behests of party and vote for Grant, regardless of the contempt and contumely which that individual heaped upon them, as a class, indiscriminately. Ulyases has other and more important quaiificati n as a radical candidate for the presidency. The general has a father, a garrulous old gentleman, who has lately been turning an honeit penny by writing the life o' his boy M Ulyss " for the New York Ltnger. A few extracts from this entertaining work will show up the General's qualifications ia a brilliant light: " Ulysses was then nine r ten years old. He wa fond of making money." " Ht would rather do anything under the sun than work Ja Wuiaary."

" (irant rme,i jt for about foar years. , at the end of which he was not so well off

peci cuniarily ae when he began." " The leading passion of Ulysses, wag for horses" r- i " At eight and a half years of ape he , 6 i i e , became a regilar driver. I "Llysseshad the habit of riding our i . j v k i horses to water, standing nnon their bare backs." i or t " When Ulysses was a boy, if a circus or any show came along, in which there was a call for somebody to come torward and ride the pony, he was always the one to present himself, and whatever ho undertook to ride, he rode. This practice he kept up until he got to be bo large that he was ashamed to ride a pony." These are all first-class qualifications, and will doubtless, taken in connection with his well-known character for drunkenness, insure him a full radical vote; at least among the Gentiles. Tj e republican platform. e great agony is at length over, and th adical mountain has brought forth an exi edinglv ill- favored and dimir-1 ut:: mouse. Kidical priests of ! high and low degree, ranging in ability all the way from ex-Gov. Hawley, of Con necticut, down to Dirty-work Logan, of j Illinois, met in grand pow-wow at Chica-1 go, for the ostensible purpose of adopting a platform of principles, and selecting men I lor standard-bearers who could adopt the platform without reservation. The platform (which will be found on the outside of to-day's paper) expresses less, for its length, than any document ever put be- ; fore the public. All were led to expect a succinct and definite declaration of prin-i ciples, so plain that a "wayfaring man, though a fool, might not err therein ; in lieu of which is presented a scries of resolutions of the most uncoramittal character. In no vital particular do they take a firm and decided stand ; they are all things to all men, and can be construed to mean something or nothing, to suit the individual; The second resolution, whicli should contain the sentiment of the radicals on nger suffrage, evades a direct issue on subject in the following contemptible naaoner : 1. I hat guarantee by congress of equal I suffrage to all loyal men in the south was demanded by every considsration of pub- j lie safety, of gratitude and justice, and must be maintained, while the question of suffrage in all the loyal states properly be longs to the people ot those states The philosophy of the whole matter is this : The radicals have been defeated on out stint on the south, but when it comes home it is a very different thing ; and they wish to be "counted out." The third and fifth resolutions treat ot the national debt, aud sum up the whole matter in the following vigorous style: 3. That we denounce a'.l thc forms of repudiation of thc national debt as a national crime, and the national honor requires the payment of the public indebtedness in the utmost good faith to all the creditors at home and abroad, not only according to the latter but the spirit of the laws under which it was contracted. 5. That thc national debt, contracted as it has been for the preservation of the UL'on ,or all time to come, should be ex"nawr a lair penoa ior its rcaemption, and it is the duty of congress to reduce tbc rate ofiotcrest tWoa wheQever can honestly be done. If any newspaper of radical proclivities can inform us the meaninff 0f tho third resolution, we shall be pleased to have them do so. Negro suffrage and thc national finances are the two great questions before the country, and the three resolutions quoted are what the radicals propose to swear by during the coming campaign. Any party that cannot meet the issues squarely is beaten ia advance, and if the democratic party adopts a platform with something tangible for the people to take hold of, thc defeat of radicalism in this country is ß bregone conclusion. " THOSE CANNONS." Under the above caption the Indianapolis &entinel May 23, has the fallowing pertinent remarks: We have information that cannons U 4 C i L " " i x . iL. l J i have been sent from this city to the Grand Army of thc Republic organizations at Terrc Haute, Evansville, Madison and Lebanon, and the general impression is that they are thc property ot the State. If so, we would like to know by what authority and for what purpose their use is given to this partisan organization? ' Tili ix a matter that needs explanation. These cannons were paid for with the money of the whole people, and it is an ' outrage upon them that they should be : . r. ,rP - . r . i vile nuBBBSMUii ui I'.n li-viii ivvroti . possess Again, we demand to know (and we exj pect a prompt answer to the inquiry) by what authority these cannons are given in to the hands of the G. A, WJ " Wonder if the cannon which the rads. of this place have in their possession was not one of the same lot? There is something rotten about this cannon business that mongrels very much dislike to have stirred up. Tax-paying democrats are not anxious to pay large sums toward the manufacture of abolition thunder, and an early answer to the interrogatories proi pounded above ia demanded.

As we stated Fome time since the Republican $ remarks were made in the most public and offensive manner, and justice would seem to demand that the apology be made in an equally public manner. Let us hear from you. The Chicago concern of last week, under the head of 4iWlio would be a Copi pcrhead I " waxes indignant because a copperhead refused to permit his little girl to attend the graded school in this place, if a mulatto girl, who had been attending for some time, was allowed to remain. This statement may or may not be true but assuming it to be correct, we do not see the injustice of the action. Negroes are not taxed for school purposes, and are not enumerated. The government of the United States is supposed to have the moral and physical welfare of the colored population under its own special charge ; and if the editor is not satisfied with what has been done for them during the last seven years, he should bring his batteries to bear on men who are not copperheads. The beauty of the thing is ttiat thc little mulatto girl in que tion applied to a private school conducted under republican auspices, and was refused admission. This was right enough from a copperhead standpoint, but the editor of the Republican should howl dismally over it. The affection which the editor of that paper has for the colored "pussons" attained its La i full flower, if reports are true, at a period anterior to his residence in this place. A SOUND HEAD. Tixe gentlemen who made the following short speech possessed a keen appreciation of affairs in this country, and effectually squelched the individual toward whom his remarks were directed. At a : r r -J c ....i. a : . , , ' ' a gentleman wlio bad Deen a resident ot the United iStates, expressed the opinion that the incorporation of American institutions would place Columbia on a level j with the Great Republic of North Amerij ca. The man of "keen appreciation " replied as follows: Mr. President : In proposing that we should adopt the North American institutions, in order that we may rank among the most civilized nations of the worla, our friend is merely repeating a vulgarism against which I do most solemnly protest. We are represented as an uncivilized people ; but, sir, if to do what the Americans have done, is to be civilized, if to have dono it before them is to be ahead of them, then we are at thc head of civilization. Tor what do the Americans boast of? They have but recently abolished slavery ; we abolished slavery long ago. They have just proclaimed the equal ity of races, and are trying to hold up the negro ; we have proclaimed that equality and held up the negro long ago. They have only finished their first civil war, rendered money scarce, and made a paper dollar not worth a dollar. We have had dozens of civil wars ; have rendered money scarce, and made papor dollars not worth a dollar long ago. They are beginning to tear up theii constitution, impeach the president, and set up dictators; we have done all that long ago. They are at last going to the devil as fast as they can ; we have gone to the devii long ago. A young friend of ours, of the radical persuasion, was recently congratulating himseif on not being placed on the assessor's books for purposes of taxation this year. We remonstrated with him, and thought that a M trooly loil " man should not object to paying his proportion of the taxes to pay the bondholders' interest on bonds, etc.; to which he replied that it was the sign of a " trooly loil " man to avoid the payment of as many of " these little things" as possible. We believe him, my boy. STANTON, The ignominious and pusilla nimous leech, has tendered his resignation. Three Beug with an F. Three of the most prominent and illustrious lights in the radical party write their christian names Benjamin F., viz: Benjamin F. Butler, chief manager in the impeachment plot. He stole spoons and bullied women in New Orleans. Honijimln V. Rico, r.arnet bai? Senator from Arkansas. He stole 85,000 of a . ' .... client s money in Kentucky, gambled it off and ran away in the night. Benjamin F, Wade, president of the senate, and professor of cursing and swearing. He voted to make himself president of the United States. What a lovely trio of Bens to bo sure. Poor Benjamin Franklin ! It's lucky for him that he did not live to see his name disgraced. Two bushels of rats wore recently found in the vat of a b re wry recently seized by revenue officers in Philadelphia. The barn of William McEwen, Ksq., at Columbus, was destroyed by fire, together with all of his agricultural instru ments, 14 mules, grain, hay, eto. Total loss was $15,000, on which there was $4,000 insured in the Madison Insurance company. A man named George Sublet was was found dead upon the Terre Haute railroad track, a mile east of Reelsville, last Sunday, with his head and faoe horrible crushed. It is supposed that he was intoxicated and was lying upon the traek when the western traia ran over him in j the night.

CHICAGO CORRESPONDENCE. Chicago, IMay 25, 1868. As the event: ul convention wuek, so generally trying to all northern newspapers, in the matter of space, is now over, and your columns are relieved from the extraordinary pressure, I believe that I will be justified to-day in giving you a

pretty full letter not much of it about politics, that subject should have a rest, at least in my department, especially ! just now when there is such a decided lull as always follows a time of great and unwonted excitement. Since the republican nominations are made and the democratic are not, and since the acquittal of the president is a foregone conclusion, political speculation is not so lively a commodity as before. But I have one topic to-day which cannot fail to interest your readers, many of them, no doubt, in the most direct way, viz. pecuniarily. Some 800,000 of the stock of the "National Telegraph Company" has been placed in thc northwest, some of it in your section, and stock-holders would like to have some idea of what show they have for getting their money back. I regret to say that when this stock was being pushed in the northwest, I, like many others, believed in the very specious professions made by the company and its representatives here and aided them in giving publicity to their scheme, hoping that it might, if put in operation, effect large reductions of the present telegraphic rates, and thereby benefit the public. That hope I no longer have. From private, and I have every reason to believe, reliable lourccs of information in New York, I learn that there is not, and never has been even the chost of an intent on tbo nart nf tli rrn. . -4l , , ... jeciors oi maw enterprise 10 duuq a mile oi line. Year after year, since they obtained their charter from congress, they have made flaming announcements of how many thousand miles of line they were going to put up in the ensuing twelve-month and where it was to bo. Pretences of surveys were made, maps of routes published, and all without a shadow of purpose of putting up an actual inch of wire. Owincr to their beinc: required to place such an immense amount of stock, a large proportion of their ten millions, before they could begin calling in payments, (a provision in the charter) they could not play the same thorough gaxe which some other companies have done, of contracting with their own officers to build their lines at three, four and even five times their cost, and devoting to this end all they could pull out of their stock-holders. The original one per cent first payment was all they could get by direct action. But there was still another dodge, the transfer of their books of subscriptions for stock to some other new company not so bound. The consent of stockholders would have to be obtained to the transfer, but who would not consent when told "here, you will certainly lose what you have already put in if you hold on to this stock, for the Natwnnl is gone up; but we, to save our personal reputation, have made an arrangement by which you can transfer right into a good, sure thing," etc., etc. In oth-r words, to save himself, the stock-holder simply lays himself liable to a still deeper bleeding. At last advices, a day or two since, the arrangements we e about complete to dump the "National stock over to the "Atlantic k Pacific Telegraph Co." in the cast, and the National's western agent, "taking time by tho forelock" and "lookiug out for No. 1," has been sharp enough to come to terms already, on an independent basis, with the "Great Western Telegraph Co." here. Of this latter company I shall have more to say hereafter, but as a gradual preparation therefor, let me give you a few facts relative to the Atlantic & Pacific Telegraph Co. It was started by a Mr. Van Kleick, and some leaser lights ; and although gentlemen of known good character and standing appear among its directors, it is believed that few, if any of them became directors otherwise than by accepting plaoes offered with stock gratuitously. As soon as thc company was organized, a contract was made with Van Kleick to build 3000 miles of two-line wire,forthe sum of $5,000,000 ofstook, $1,666 per mile. In other words the machinery of a company was to be usod for placing his stock, for it was all his, and collecting the installments called in, up to the maximum of 40 per cent. This forty per cent, would give the contractor $666 per mile. Whether thin pays or not, may be judged from the fact that the New York lines were sub-let to Joseph Owens at $3,000 per mile i.nd he has already made over $25,000 out of the job "with lots more coming." After the lines a . .... are built with all their astonishing zigzags, made to get as many miles between points as possible, they will belong to the uulortunato stock-holders who have paid three times their value for them. The original parties in the business will have washed their hands of it, and the lines will not be worth half the first cost of their material. So much for thc prospects of a profitable transfer from tho "National" to the "Atlantic & Pacifio," or, in other words, "out of the frying-pan into the fire." Pardon my dwelling so long on this subjeot, but it is one which needs stirring up and ventilation. I was seduced into an innocent confidence in the thing at first, and now I wish to save, as far as

may be, your readers' poekets from th

raids. I am not half done, but the remainder I shall reserve for another time. The '.'fancy" are full of excitement and anxiety over the great fight between Coburn and McCoolc which is to come off on Wednesday next, somewhere near Cincinnati. Not less than fifteen hundred

persons went from here last night and to day to witness it. There bas been a state-! ment received here by telegraph, that on Saturday night last, Coburn was thrashed i by an amateur in Cincinnati ; but it is looKcü upon simply as a trick to get odds atrainst him. and Coburn is still at nar in 1,1 .i ... i this market. . . . r Chicago has a new sensation just now; 4 Lit' l,nrt,i..n .1.1 i J " -"" "runs" of two and three hundred points in billiards, full game. He is, of course, ati Brunswick Hall, for round the Brunswick's clusters everything noteworthy in the western billiard world. By the way, the Messrs. Brunswick have here a , i.ii l v ii I uuuaiu iauic uKKvrj, wnicii actually turns , out six hundred finished billiard tables, second to none in the world, every year. They have also large factories in jin Cincinnati, New Orleans and St. Louis, and the reputation which their work has achieved is world-wide. It is, indeed, their integrity in the execution of all their work which has given such fame and

and precedence to their tables. Nothing i erate aim, fired on Mr.' Roctger, the ball in the slightest degree imperfect in wood, passing through his heart' causing instanmarble, iron, cloth, or any other portion of! tapeous death.

The utmost strength and durability being thus secured, while their grand feature the combination cushions are enough alone to entitle these I tables to rank above all others. The i Messrs. Brunswick manufacture every possible varietv of table for billiards nno possioie variety or laDie ior Dimards, pool, bagatelle, and all other kindred games;! and have also the largest and most complete stock of various furniture and appliauces used in this connection, in this ' country. Their establishment is on State ! street, south side, between Lake and Randolph. A movement is now on foot here among j the friends of the Mission School enter-1 prise, to establish an institution similar to j the Howard Mission, in New York, for I tne daily care and tuition of children. A ! larKe meeting was held in the Opera House, last night to urge the measure upon the public, and it bids fair to achieve success. The Methodist general conference is still iu session, but is developing nothing of general public interest now. "C " IMPEACHMENT. ACQUiTfAL OF THE PRESIDENT! A VERDICT OF NOT GUILTY" REN DEREO AS TO THE SECOND AND THIRD ARTICLES! ADJOURNMENT OF THE COURT SINE DIE!! Washington, May 20. Contrary to prevailing impressions in congressional circles last night, and even in flat oposition to the dictum of the senatorial caucus held this morning by the friends of impeachment, the senate, sitting as a court, finally decided by thc even vote of 27 to 27 against, that it would proceed this day to execute its order and vote on the remaining articles of impeachment. In pursuance ot this, it at once took up and disposed of the second and third articles, and declared by precisely the same vote which was cast ou May 1G, on the eleventh article, that the president was not guilty ol high crimes and misdemeanors charged in the articles. The president could not be convicted on the remaining the 1st, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th and 10th articles, and by unanimous consent a judgment of acquittal on the 2d, od, and 11th articles was entered on the journal of the court; and, in pursuance of a motion made by Senator Williams, of Orecjon, Chief Justice Chase declared that the senate, sitting as a court of impeachment, stood adjourned without a day. RESIGNATION OF STANTON AS SECRETARY OF WAR ! Washington, May 2C Secretary Stanton, as soon as he heard of the adjournment of the court of impeachment, at once sent in his resignation as secretary of war to the president, lie merely recites the fact of acquittal, and states that he has turned over the records of the department to Ajt. Geo. Townsend. The following is Stanton's letter ot resignation : " War Dei't, Washington, May 26, 1868. To the President: i gm The resolution of the senate of the United States of the 21st of February last, declaring that the president has uo power to remove the secretary ol war ana designate any other officer to perform ths duties of the office ad interim, having this day failed to be supported by twothirds of the senate prescut and voting on the articles of impeachment preferred against you by the house of representatives, I havo relinquished charge of '.he war department, and have loft the same, and the books, archives, papers, and property in my custody as secretary of war, in care of Uvt, Maj, (Jon. Townseud, tne senior adjutant general, subject to your direction. Edwin it. Stanton, Secretary of War." A number of leading republicans waited i on Stanton to-night, and strongly adviaed against his resignation of the war office, but it was too lato.

A sad caattalty occurred on Tuesday nignt on Kentucky avenue, at the flowergarden ot Anthony Wiegand, Indianapolis. A lad 12 years of age, nametf Adam Shearer, son of an employee of Mr. Wiegand, took a horse used in the garden to the outside ot the inclosure to feed upon some tall grass growing by the fence. The little fellow tied the halterstrap around his waiste and while in thai condi-
