Has stood the test of seven years before the public and no preparation for the hair has yet been discovered that will produce the same beneficial results. It is an entirely new scientiffic discovery,combining many df the most powerful and re iterative agents in the 3GETABLE KINGDOM. It restores GRAY HAIB TO ITS ORIGINAL YOUTHFUL COLOR. It makes the scalp white and clean cures dandruff and humors, and falling oat of the hair and will make it gr6y upon bald heads, except in very aged persons, as it furnishes the nutritive principle by which the hair is nourished and supported. It makes the hair moist, and glossy, and is unsurpassed as a HAIB DRESSING. It is the cheapest preparation ever offered to the public, as one bottle Will accomplish more and last longer than three bottles of any other prepara tion.

It is recommended and used by the Firs Medical Authority. The wonderful results produced by our Sicilian Hair Renewer have induced many manufacture preparations for the Haitunder various names and, in order to in* duce the trade and the public to purchase thiir compounds, they have resorted to fa&ehood, by claiming they were former partners, or had some connection with our Mr. Hall, and their preparation was similar to ours. De not be doceived by them. Purchase the original: it has never yet be^n equalled. Our Treatise on the Hair wikh certificates, sent free by mail. See thit each bottle has our private Revenue Stamp over the top of the bottle. All otters are imitations. (u R. P. HALL & CO., Prop's,

FOBEIGN NEWS.

A"Loinoit

cable despatch confirms the resigna'

tion of Earl Derby. THE national debt of Mexico is to be extinguished by the sale of confiscated property.

BxixFoacEJtENTS and money are called for to suppress the Yucatan rebellion. YEKEZUELA advices state tho rebellion is almost entirely suppressed.

ANOTHER severe shock of earthquake was experienced at Montreal, Wednesday night, the most violent felt there of late years.

THE English authorities have determined lo withdraw the remainder of suit* against Irishmen indicted for walking In the mock funeral proeession at Dublin recently«

THE London News in an article on tho resignation of the American Minister, says, "all England will lament the departure of Charle* Francis Adams."

ADVICES from Buenos Ayre* of Jan.13th, report that Major-General Asboth, Amtrican Minister resident, was lying very ill and certainly could not survive many days.

A rumors snow storm set in at Toronto, Canada, *on Tuesday, and continued with great violence till noon yesterday. Railways were blocked and trains stuck In snew banks.

ADVICES from Abyssinia state that the inhabitants met by Napier's envoy weie all friendly to the English, and the women of Odova cheered tho military mission when it entered that town.

THE Governor of Newfoundland in his address to the Legislature having intimated that the question of confederation should come up for consideration, a large meeting was held at St. Johns and resolutions passed deprecating tlie intention of the Government to introduce the subject.

LATEST advices from Mexico are to the 19th.— A conspiracy had been discovered to assassinate Juarez and rob the treasury. The assassination scheme which was to have been carried out at the theater failed. The whole affair was planned by two Mexioans, now in Havana.

A LONDON dispatch says that at a late meeting John Bright spoke strongly in favor of the Government policy and power of the American people, and of England's duty to cultivate friendly relations with them. Mr. Bright said "if the British government and English press had acted rightly during the late war in America, no power on earth conld have alienated the two nations In feeling or separated them in interest."

A LOXDOX cable dispatch says the resignation^ Derby occnpies general attention. The entrusting of the Premiership to D'Israelil* viewed as a great step toward p»pular Government, and as a virtual acknowledgement of the inability of the aristocracy to furnish ability enough to fill the post. The London Time* says D'Israeli is the first man in power who obtained such office solely by the exhibition of personal ability in Parliament and the Cabinet.

A riLEs&AM from Victoria reports the arrival of the Fenian Head Centre.

Johnson consoled.,

^.,:

Notwithstanding the pathetic exclamation of Mrs. COBB that 'the poor old man gona at last!" he seems not to have been left in the utter hopelessness of abject despair. Telegraphie consolation has flowed in upon ANDY in inundatory quantities. The postmaster of an obscure Yankee town leads off with this portentous message: "Hang to the Constitution, and you will be sustained by thirty thousand men of Massachusetts."

Whether JOHNSON "hangs to the Constitution," to "a sour apple tree,'' to a friendly beam or an obliging rafter is of little importance to the public, but it is earnestly to be desired that he may heed the injunction contained in the suggest tive initial word of the above dispatch, and forthwith proceed to "hang" to something.

A more ancient and respectable JtTDAs than the one now afflicting this nation was so tormented by his. conscience for the commission of a crime similar to that of JOHNSON'S that ''he went out and hanged himself." It is a pity that JOHNSON, Laving followed the example of JUDAS in the consummation of his treason, should lack the courage and decency to continue the parallel.

Tho democracy have a convenient way of getting rid of an objectionable Executive. Lead or poison subserves the ends of "the greal constitutional party" and clears the White House of any incumbent who stands in the way of progress of "democratic" ideas. The Union party, incumbered with conscience, moral notions, and other impediments long since discarded by the opposition, ct»n only hope to be rid of a traitor President by suicide natural death or impeachment. His lamentable deficiency in the best qualities of his prototype, JUDAS, precludes hope of relief by the first means the longevity of democratic office-holders forbids the indulgence of any anticipation of relief by the second means, and leaves the constitutional remedy of impeachment as our only resort.

Six Dollars Worth.

The great modern institution," the electric telegraph, has been called into requisition for an almost infinite variety of purposes. Pacific and belligerent, social and commercial, dolorous and hilarious, amicable and inimical messages, in 3ndles8

But, accustomed as are those wires to the transmission of startling intelligence the birth of empires, the extinction of dynasties, the devastations of pestilence, earthquakes, volcanoes and tempests, the ravages of war, the grand achievements of all-conquering science—-there must have been a terrific ebullition in their batteries, an unwonted shaking of their poles and an ecstatic thrill throughout their longitudinal dimensions a? on Wednesday tbe 26th instant they flashed from Terre Haute, Indiana, to Washington, C., six dollars worth of advisory consolation to "the poor old man" in these memorable words: "Stand firm to your position, and in defense of the Constitution and the Executive Department. Indiana will sustain you with one hundred thousand brave, Btalwart, and tried men" I!!

THE tried and trained martial spirit of the loyal North seems to have been thoroughly aroused by the exciting and important events transpiring at Washington. Now, as in April, 1861, the patriotic sons of the States which ralliod around the National Standard when it was first lowered under Rebel fire, are eag#r and ready to maintain the laws and dignity of our common country by force of arms if need be. On Sunday Gov. GEARY telegraphed to Senator CAMERON, at the National Capital: '-Volunteers are hourly tendering their services to support the laws. Let Congress stand firm."

Similar dispatches were sent from otter States, the same spirit was everywhere apparent. We confidently hope and believe there will be no occasion for the services of these brave and willing supporters of the majesty of tbe law. But such^ dispatches and the feeling in which they originate are significant and furnish a warning which those who are engaged in violating the laws of the land will do wellt to heed.

PATRICK BOSS, who, *ome eight year* ago murdored a lady of rank in Ireland for her property and fer whom the British Government offered a reward of 750 pounds, has been arrested and committed to jail in Cincinnati.

THK Jourml quotes from the Cincinnati Commercial and from tbe Express in. order to show that the two papers do not exactly agree as to the extent of JOHNSON'S criminality in violating the Tenure-of-Office law, and remarks that "these expressions of positive difference on a question of vital moment by two leading radical organs will have an ill effect in uniting the "trooly loil" portion of the community.'1

It is scarcely necessary to remind our cotemporary, of what the public perfectly understand, that the Commercial is not, in any sense, a "radical organ" nor a Republican organ. It claims to be an "independent paper," the "organ" of its proprietors, and has a decided proclivity for indiscriminate attacks in which the most Charming indifferenco is manifested as to where its blowsfmay fall, so that they "make the hair fly," somewhere. Its course towards the Republican party is very much like that of the provoking old cow in the familiar story. Sometimes it seems to be inclined to do the party a service and submits its udder to the manipulations of political milkers with great apparent amiability, but no sooner is the party bucket full of what the credulous milker supposes to be just the right sort of fluid, than slam goes afoot against the foam-covered vesseli spilling the lacteal in All directions, prostrating the credulous operator and often bedaubing him with Democratic mud.— While acknowledging the ability and en terprise which have secured for the Commercial its prominent position among the leading netcs-papers of the country, we mast, in common with the general public, regard it as ne more reliable, politically, than is the New York Herald-, on which it ii modeled.

Mo Palliation-

Whatever else may be urged in puliation of JOHNSON'S crimes it cannot be said •that his last violation of law waa accidental. It was calm, deliberate and malicious, with intention to defy Congress and to make the will of one bad man superior to that of the people. And whatever may be the result of this rash act the responsibility rests with its perpetrator. He can plead neither haste, misunderstanding nor good intentions. He has invited Congress to impeach him. In fact, he has dared that body to adopt the^ only legal means at its command to rid the country of an Executive whose continuance in office is a constant menace to every interest of the Bepublic.

A mad-man playing with pyrotechnics in a powder magaaine situated in the heart of a great city—as were sojpe of our magazines during the late war—would no more imperatively demand removal than does this desperate plotter of national ruin demand expulsion from a position which he has used only in the interests of rebels and traitors. Let him be promptly and fairly tried. His position and the national character demand that the proceedings should be conducted with a dignitv in striking contrast with the habita and character of the man. Let the House make good the charges which it will prefer against him and let him speedily retire from public crime to private infamy, to be the most decidedly ex of all ex* Presidents.

Johnson's Special Pleading. We have heretofore paid as much attention to the flimsy "argument" of the President in justification of the removal of STANTON as its merits demanded. A sneer would have sufficed, for that matter. But as there may be those among onr readers who have read tho message and are not familiar with the law whose violation was the last act in JOHNSON'S career of "high crimes and misdemeanors," we will briefly examine the reasons he seti forth. They are: First, that he deaired to test the constitutionality of the Tenure of Office bill and, second, that under the provisions of that bill he had a right to

remove,

alternation, speed along the

metalic cords which, annihilating distance, have knit the nations of the globe into a common neighborhood and fur-, nished a means whereby even that message which is to announce that "time shall be no more" can be transmitted more rapidly than by GABRIEL'S hogfc unless a suspension of natural laws snail give precedence to tbe divinely appointed mode of communication.

because he did not appoint him. Under tbe first proposition he deliberately proceeded to violate a law of Congress in order to test its validity. Under the second, he endeavored to remove Mr, STANTON (although the law declares he shall hold his office during the term of the President by whom he was appointed) not "by and with the advice and consent of the Senate," but defiantly in the face of its declaration that he "has not the power to remove that officer and designate any other person to perform the duties of that officer ad interim."

Nothing is clearer than that the President cannot clothe any man with the functions of office in place of an incumbent while the Senate i3 in session without "the advice and consent" of that body. In the numerous appointments and removals made by the President, there have been none who have been recognized or assumed to act by executive orders without being confirmed by the Senate.

Mr. JOHNSON has set the precedent in violation of law and the Constitution. No special pleading will save him from its consequences. He cannot act inde» pendent of the Supreme Court, independent of the Senate and of Congress, in setting aside laws at will, in ejecting officers and installing othors, without being either a traitor or a despot. M-

THE ratification meeting, holden at the Court House on Saturday afternoon, was a grand demonstration of the Union Republican party of "Vigo county, not only in favor of our State ticket, but in support of the majority of Congress in their efforts to apply the Constitutional knifa of impeachment to the national cancer, to make use of the remedy provided by the wiae forethought of the fathers of the Republic, in anticipation of just such a contingency as has arisen. Whatever differences of opinion may have existed as to the policy of impeachment prior to JOHNSON'S last attempted campaign, it is certain that the Union party of Vigo, of Indiana, of the country, is a unit new in favor of hit being forthwith summoned to the bar of the Senate, and tried as speedily as may be consistent with dignity and justice.

An examination of the articles of impeachment will show that the case is sim* pie, affording no pretext for vexatious delay, and we confidently look for a vigorous prosecution on the part of the managers and energetic action on the part of the Senate.

Elevated to the Executive Chair, by the hand of an assassin, degrading his office and disgracing his country by public crimes and private indecencies—fitly representing his single constituent, J. WILKES BOOTH—it will not be an inappropriate termination of a career thus begun and thus centinued when he shall leave the White House stamped with the indellible brand of impeachment. He will confer a lasting favor upon two better men, who long since passed to their final reward by elevating to comparative respectability the names of BENEDICT ARNOLD and AARON BURB-

PRIOR to the last great crime In the long series which have marked the career of ANDREW JOHNSON, Congress was moTe than patient with him, and bore with his perfidious duplicity and low cunning from a desire to avert from tho country^ if possible, the grave consequences apprehended from actual collision. But at length the point w'as reached where forbearance would have been criminal cowardice rather than virtue. The issue has been forced upon the country by the madness of JOHNSON. It must be settled whether this is a nation in which tbe people rule, or whether our rights are dependent upon the will of one man who is crar creature (God forgive us that he is such) clothed with power by our permission. It is a great question between the Universal principles of republicanism and those of despotism and autocracy. What the result of such a contest will be we eauiot permit ooraalrea to doubt

FACTS TO BE BKMKMBERKD.

Items, from the Record of T. A.

Wo propose to refresh the recollections of our Democratic friends by citing a few facts from the record of the gentleman in whose hands they have placed their standard for the campaign^ of 1868, and whose vaunted "popularity" and "great effect» iveness on the stump" are relied upon to overcome the Republican majority in Indiana and give her electoral vote to ANDY JOHNSON, GKO. H. PENDLETON, HOBATIO SEYMOUR, JEFFERSON DAVIS or any other man among the list of Presidential candidates hoisted by the various organs ofthe party. 1. We call attention to the fact tha* Congress, in 1862, passed a law requiring all officers of the Government to take what is called the "iron clad" oath, the substance of which is, that the person taking it has not been guilty of treason against the United States. 2. Next in order we have the interesting and suggestive fact that THOMAS A. HENDRICKS, when he took his teat in the Senate of the United States in Marcbf 1863, did not aud would not take this aath without making an explanation* See Congressional Globe, 1862-63, part 2' page 1561. 3. Pursuing the record somewhat further we find that in January, 1864, Mr. HENDRICKS resisted with all his power a motion to make it one of the rules of the Senate that this oath should be taken by every new Senator who might apply for admission as a member. 4. It is a fact of equal pertinence in this investigation that, in a speech then made in the Senate in opposition to the propose ed rule, he used this language "When I took my seat in this chamber as a Senator from the State of Indiana although I did not believo it would be rightfully required, yet lest my course might be misunderstood by som e, or misconstrued by others, and as there was nothing in the oath to which I could not without any reservation bind myself, I did not contest the question, but voluntarily up®n what I deemed a proper explanation, complied with the requirements of the act. But sir, where it is now sought by a rule of the Senate proposed by the Senator from Massachusetts (Mr. Sumner) to require the oath of all Senators who may hereafter demand beats in this body, I will not givo the proposition my vote or support. Whoever comes here being duly elected and having the qualifications prescribed by the Conetitution has a right to his seat and his State may well demand it for him. The right of his State to be represented by him is conferred by the Constitution, and cannot be denied or impaired by any rule of this body or by any act of Congress." [Congressional Globe, 1863-64, part 1st, page 278.

We respectfully ask any champion of the Democratic nominee for gubernatorial and senatorial honors to tell us what this means if it does not not mean that Congress has no power to prevent traitors from legislating for loyal men. 5. The consistency of Mr. HBNDRICKS is very strikingly shown by the fact that he now Beeks to induce tho people to change the political camplexion of both Houses of Congress by assuring them that this oath which he denounces as unconstitutional is a sufficient safeguard against the admission of rebels to Congress. See his speech to the 8th of January Convention.

Let us suppose that the people, forgetting the treachery and duplicity of his party, should take Mr. HBNDRICKS at his word, and send a majority of hs political faith to Congress, how long would it be until the "iron clad oath" would be repealed, and such men aB DAVIS, TOOMBS and STEPHENS be admitted to the Senate and House to legislate for Indiana and other loyal States

IT has been the subject of some comment and a little surprise that the He use Committee, in preparing articles of impeachment against the President, should have confined their charges to offenses of recent date. At first thought it would seem best to have gone back to the inception of his oriminal career and loaded him down with along series of accusations extending over a protracted period. Had this course heen pursued it would have given JOHNSON a thousand plausible pretexts for delay in preparation, sending tor witnesses etc. and might have protracted the trial till the close of his official term. The Committee have, therefore, acted wisely in seising fresh material ready-made and placed at their disposal by the madness of the desperate man with whom they have to deal. The trial will not be complicated and there can be no pretext for delay. We trust the country will soon be relieved of the danger and disgrace accruing from every hour's continuance of such a man in th« Executive Chair.

THE flimsy plea of the President that SECRETARY STANTON was appointed by Mr. LINCOLN, and therefore does not come within the provisions of the Tenure-of-office act, vanishes when we recollect that the President, in August, 1867, suspended Mr. STANTON from the office of Secretary of War, and, In February, 1868, undertook to remove him from office. If Mr. STANTON was not Secretary of War, how could he be suspended or removed?— The course of Mr. JOHNSON would have been to go forward in the same manner as if the office had been vacated when he succeeded to the Presidency. But he could net very well deny tbe validity of hundreds of acts, recognizing the position of Mr. STANTON, anchthis latest quibble, founded upon the most narrow construc•on of the words of an act of Congress, g^ows how desperate was the case, and jj0w weak and unvalling the reasons gjTen for the desperate undertaking. The §«Qate will doubtless act upon this question Tith common-sense congtruction of the words of tbe law, and of tbe ciicttm* which bear upon it.

The Impeachment Proceedings. The various steps thus far taken for the impeachment of ANDREW JOHNSON have been marked by no unseemly baste, nor have they been unnecessarily delayed, and there can be no doubt but that from this time the proceedings will be conducted with regularity until the end. At present it is premature to speculate as to when this trial will tie brought to a conclusion. There have been suggestions made already as to what might or might not be done and by some it has been supposed that the matter would be rushed through with a haste which would seem to partake of vindictiveness, while, on tbe other hand, it haa been supposed that tbe delay might lawfully be so unconscionable, that before the question could be decided the term of the President would expire. Both of these views, it may be suggested, are unjustified. The safe and proper course will be found between the two extremes. The idea that the impeachment must occupy along time, Is derived from British experience in the case of WARREN HASTINGS, whose trial occupied seven years.— But we apprehend there is a difference between tbe method in which everything of a legal character it done in this country and the method used in Europe eighty yea:s ago. Even now, in England, public proceedings are accelerated, and the reproach of delay, so frequent and so well founded, haa been to a great extent removed. It is to be presumed that while due time will be given for a fair trial of the accused, all pretensions for procrastination will be avoided.

The President ought to have due time to prepare his defense but as he has already, in his message to tho Senate of Monday last, noticed all the points that by any ingenuity can be suggested in his favor, it cannot require a long time for argument. A.s to the evidence it is simple, and needs nothing but the official documents and evidence of General THOMAS' attempt to get possession of the War Department. Chief-Justice CHASE, by the terms of the Constitution, mu9t presido at this trial. It has beeu suggested that his duties in the Supreme Court are so important that by no means can he be ready to attend to this matter until the session of ths Court is completed. But there aro some matters which take precedence of all others, aad this should be of them. In the first place, the Supreme Court as to its business, terms and manner of trial of cases ia a creature of Congress. The duty of the Chief-Justice to preside at the trial of the President i3 prescribed by tho Constitution. The same instrument says that the Senate shall have sole power to try impeachments. The arrangement of tho time of trial, therefore, is in that body, and the High Court of the Senate being superior to the Supreme, the business of the latter must not be allowed to interfere with this much more important subject. We, therefore, expect that ChiefJustice CHASE will interpose no objection to the summons of the Senate whenever it may come, and that he will be of opinion that all other engagements are subsidiary to this, which under the Constitution, has been incumbent upon him as superior to all others.

WE notice that in some of our Eastern exchanges an interesting discussion has arisen as to the period when the term of office of certain United Senators will expire. Thus, the recent elections of CASSERLY for California, HAMILTON for Maryland, and THUBMAN for Ohio, havo caused many persons to imagine that their predecessors, Messrs. CONNESS, REVERDY JOHNSON and WADE, will relinquish their seats on the 4th of March, 1868. Tho terms of these last mentioned gentlemen will not expire until 1869, but the elections to fill the anticipated vacancies were held one year previously, in consequence of the Legislatures being elected biennially. The act of Congress directing the mode of selecting Senators provides that the Legislature of each State which shall be choBen next proceding the expiration of the time of its Senator, shall on the second Tuesday after the meeting and organization thereof proceed to elect a successor. In the case of State Legislatures meeting biennially in the odd year previous to March 4th, the election will take place only a short time before the vacancy occurs where the biennial Legislatures meet late in the odd years or early in the even years, then a long period must elapse before the caniidatocan take his seat. Thus the Legislature lately elected met in California during December, 1867 in Maryland and Ohio during January, 1868. The proceedings were absolutely necessary to guard against notfllled seats.

JOHNSON having failed to corrupt either GRANT, THOMAS or SHXBIDAN, who will he try next Is there no supenservicea* ble brigadier who oan be seduced with three brevets, or no oolonel who might be elevated by four To a person having the power of Mr. JOHNSON, and the digposition also to do something desperate, in order to show hie animosity, it really must be a great surprise that the big fish of the army refuse to rise to his fly. Let him abandon the attempt to do anything with the eager variety, and try the small fry with pfn hooks. LORENZO THOMAS has already been caught with a small wo^m. Are there no other silly military gudgeons to be caught with band nets

THE Democratic National Committen had an eye to business in urging thoPreident to render himself liable to impeachment, as ^e is thus gotten out of the way as a candidate against PENDLETON, etc. Tho punishment of a Presidont by impeachment is "removal from office, and disqualification to hold and enjoy any office of honor, trust or profit under the United States."

JOHN FREEMAN, of Yincennes, aged 23 years, was killed by a locomotive and tender running over bim ia tho Yard in that city. He was intoxicated at tho timo and was sitting on the track, when tho locomotive was backed down over him.
