Democratic Gymnastics. The Journal is suddenly amiften with ardent admiration of

and

intense desire for

"military despotism." It wants a "military satrap" installed here in Indiana It has strangely lost its holy horror of "bayonets about the ballot box" and has nothing to say of "a fair election or a free fight." In the gushing freshness of its newly developed Democratic principles it exclaims :. It is a great pity we can't have a Gen. Meadevp this xoay to regulate election matters." Was there over such an exhibition of Democratic gymnastics such "ground and lofty tumbling!" After all the howline and gnashing of teetb, tbe weeping and wailing of tbe Democratic press over the "military satrapcy" established by "the Rump" to "regulate elections" among "our oppressed Southern brethren," hero comes out tho organ of the Vigo Democracy, in the home of the great champion of "Southern rights," Hon.

Now we emphatically deny that the city election in Chicago was a Republican defeat in any true sense of that term. The facts are simply these: In tbe judicial election the Democrats were successful by a majority of 910 OH the vote for Judge, and 120 on the vote for Clerk while the Republicans not only elected ten of the seventeen Aldermen, but tho official returns give us an aggregate majority of 385.

It is well known that an Aldermanic election is a better test of party strength than ajudidal election. It is also to be remembered that in electing

Where ia the Victory

Our neighbor, the Journal, has done a deal of bloviating over the election in Chicago. The truth is, tho Democracy have been so used to humiliating defeats, through the long years in which they hava been tinder tbe ban of popular condemnation that they have come to regard anything less severe than a sound thrashing as a great victory. For instance, the loss on their part of a United States Senator in Connecticut was "a gloriou6 triumph," and called out every rooster that could be found among the long unused material of that nature in every Democratic printing office in the United States, so that their papers looked like EO many stray leaves from some old work on ornithology.

MCALLISTEB

the Democrats only hold

their bwn—the Recorder's Court being already in their hands.

A Strange Conversion.

Among other startling revelations of Democratic mutability in the Journal of Saturday we find this wise and singularly truthful assertion: "Impeachment is the only panacea left."

Our wildest dreams of conquest had not compassed so grand a consummation as the immediate conversion of the Domoocratic organ ©f Vigo county to sound Republican views of the impeachment question. We have been for weeks urging that impeachment was "tbe only panacea," the universal remedy for the disease of the body politic. Trup, we were opposed to this remedy until we became satisfied, by

JOHNSON'S

MnslOb.

llerchan dlse, No. 91 Wabaah Street, TSBBK HADTIE,

open and defiant vio

lation of the Tenure-of-Office Act, that it was "the only panacea left," and that without it the body politic would never recover its normal physical sanity. But we never dared to hope for an ally here in our midst, a recruit from thft. Democratic camp. It is more than gratifying to see our neighbor throw off thesharkli of party and come out boldly for truth and right on so important a question We cannot go the whole length of tho Journal's radical ideas as to the necessity or desirableness of having 'Gen.

A Pious Ally of Brick Fomeroy. We heartily agree with tho Chicago Journal in the opinion that tbe editor of tbe Advance, a paper that aspires to be the organ of the Congregationalists i.f the Northwest, ought to be transferred to tbe editorial staff of the La Crosse Democrat. In an article headed "Faiiuro to Canonize," he says: •"The Governor of Illinois does not succeed well in his endeavor to canonize the lamented Lincoln. He seeks by ,nn an-, nual proclamation to establish a State Fast on the anniversary of the murder of our late President. Many of the churches do not respond, and we hope that they will not in time to come."

The article concludes by saying: "St.

LINCOLN

in tbe Church has as yet no re

cognized place." These sentiments are atrocioug, especially as coming from a clergyman. We expect such sheets as the Chicago Times, tbe New York World and the La Crosse Democrat to throw out mean fling? at tho martyr President, and the commemoration of tho agony that wrung tbe national heart when the tidings of "bis fall flashed over the l%nd but no terms of censure are sevWe enough to measure the monstrosity of such sentiments as tbe above when they have tbe sanction of religious journalism. Should the Advance continue thisline of policy, it would soon win the sympathy of every Copperhead and rebol in the land. Wo conceive of nothing that it could say that would please them better than this unblushing attempt to discourage tbe Christian observance of Assassination Day as a day of Fasting and Prayer. .. #3

Kstabllsh Maiioffcctiires. To-day, Western farmers are compelled lo buy cotton and wool which has ieen shipped to New England, manufactured there into cloths, and then transported all the way back again, while the same farmer sells his wheat, not for the price paid by the operative who consumes it, but at a difference which will cover the cost of transportation to the East, and the profits of two or three speculators and dealers beside.

What the West must have is dlversiff cation of sis industry, and every movement in that direction, whether in iron, cotton, or any other branch of manufactures, is an effort for the emancipation of the Northwest Irom an unnatural bondage to the East.

Tho Amerioan Colonization Society i? making ati earnest appeal for money te colonize in Siberia more than iw thousand freodmen who want to go there. Four thousand freedmen have petitioned Congress to send tbem to Liberia, or to give the Colonization Society tho means to send them. Srime of their petitions have boen published, and also some letters from them, from all of which we judge they are persons of somo intelligence, good character, and earnest in* their desire to emigrate. They are poor and unable to pay their expenses. Many of them have friends in Liberia. They are all needed there—and, as they want to go there, it eems desirable that the"y should be assisted.

and evidently consider assassina

That there is a necessity for military rule, and military court-martial, and their summary process of dealing with outrages like those which are daily being pepetrnted upon unoffend ng, but loyal people, in the rebellious portions of tho South, becomes more ap. parent overy day. Nothing but the iron hand of military power seems able to subduo these malcontents and assassins. Let it be put in foace.

"Glory Enough!"

The Journal still continues the appar

ently

congenial ta«k of defending and apologizing for the Ku-Klnx Klans. It does not reiterate its recent charge that 'Loyal Leagues" in our midst we^e

'gangs

of murderers,1' but thinks the or

ganization of the Union meu of the South into similar associations a bufficicnt excuse for the existence of these Klans" of banned assassins. The stern integrity of pur

pose

and ardent zeal manifested by what it calls "tbe negroes and mean whites" of he South in their unflinching devotion to the Union, is a sufficient claim on their part to insure them tbe eternal hatred of the ''Democracy" of the Nortii.

The Journa iis true to the instincts of its party, not only in defending tbe Klans" of midnight assassins, but equally so in reviling the "mean whites'' of the South, which is the. Democratic" pet name for Southern Unionists.

It is eminently fit and entirely consistent that the party which conceived' brought forth andriftufl^hed tho rebellion tho party which ^ave birth to the K.

His national party convention is appointed to meet in this city on the 4th of July. This is too late. It ought td follow closely upon the heels of the radical Chicago Convention of the 20th of May. Mr. Belmont should call his committee together to reconsider their recentj action, and if before adjourning the committee were to authorize their chairman to pronounce in favor of Admiral Farragut, they would put the, ball in motion upon which they may roll into the White House.

THE

MOLAIN,

D. D.,

papers of continental Europe are

considerably excited over a letter said to have been addressed by the Pope to tho Emperor of Austria on the subject of the rerecent legislation in Austria on religious questiona. Tbe letter was first published in a French paper of London, tho International, and has since been reproduced by most oi tho leading papers of Austria, Franco, and other countries of Continental Europe. Some of tbe best papers of Europe, like the Debate and Temps of Paris, are inclined to regard it asgoniiine, but wo believe tho Universe one of the leading Catholic papers of Europe, to be right in treating it as a forgery. The same paper however, expresses the opinion that if the Holy Father Were to write to the Emperor, he would utter the sentiments of this letter, though ho might use somewhat different language. Thus the letter, even if spurious, possesses a certain mportance, as it gives, if not the words of the Holy Father, at least the opinion of the Catholic world on the present transformation of Austriai.

THE

New York Herald of the Z^ih

says Mr. Burlingame has arrived at San Francisco. On the 30th of this month he will leave for New York in the steam?, «bip Colorado. Mr, ,Burlingame ..will uake a lew hurried visits in this country *nd then proceed on bis grand mission to Europe. His arrival there will be felt, md-acknowledged to bo a triumph of tub liplomacy of the United States,- the great central nation of tho modorn world.' It is to us that the European Powers are indebted for the commercial relations tbey now sustain to Japan, To the success of Commodore Perry's expedition in 1853 all that there is hopeful in the present condition of thr.t country is ,due. Similar success has attended us in China. Our relations with that country have not been of long duration, but they have been simple, honest and unselfish. The truth is that the Orientals have found out that our object in courting their friendship has been of a more unselfish kind than that of any of the nations of Europe. Tbe English they knew came to conquer and to despoil them of their riches and their power. The Russians were equally selfish and equally unscrupulous. Tbe French, hough less suicessful, were actuated by similar motives. The Orientals wero net slow to learn that our motives and our purposes were different. We had no need of terrjtory, and therefore no desire of conquest. We came to tho East as a friendly peoplo with friendly purposes. Our intercourse with these nations has been a success beyond all expectation. As yet we see only tbe beginning. Tbe future Is bright with promise. In his great mission, one of the greatest of modern times, we wish Mr. Burlingame God speed.

THE

They drank liberally of the mild beverages dispensed in that locality, and waxed jocose. Having firearms and plenty of ammunition with them, they be#an shooting at travelers and teamsters aft they passed, for small wegers. One unlucky wood hauler is said to have boen made a target for five separate and distinct pistol shots, not one of which, fortunately, did any serious injury, other than to cauas his-hair to rise like quills on the fretful porcupine's hack. Chief of Police Wilson, hearing of their mad .pranks, took a.hack, drove out, and with the assistance tof another policeman, arrested the wonld«be assassin?, who were brought to town and lodged in jail—much to the relief of Stringtown's arcadian population,

that must surprise and pain his frrends. The old charge agftinet Mr.

It was further proved Viat the entire defalcation toas •promptly made up by Mr. Forney, and that tbe Government has not lost one cent by it. But thi* noble action of the Secretary of tho Senate was not recognized by hie enemies as possessing any morit.

Why Johnson is Tried.

The assertion of tho "Democracy" that

JOHNSON

is being tried because hq want

ed to test tbe constitutionality of a law is false. He is on trial, as has been happily expressed, "because he has resisted the law making and popular branch of the government for years, by every qubbilo, by every abuse of his official power, by shameful demagogueism, by open encouragement to disaffected and rebellious men, and at last by deliberate and willful defiance of law." He is on trial because being a reckless and desperate man, he has attempted to grasp pnwer* which could not safely be given tho best rind most faithful individual, and wher. the people through Congress attempted to" restrain hirn from such usurpation boldly violated the laws intended for tba purpo"* He is on trial becauso he ha» proved himself a d'agraceful, usurping, and dangerous President. His removal, by peaceful nnd constitutional means, will be tbe grandest demonstration yet givai. of tho,power of our government to correct those errors and weaknesses to whioh all popular gov«rimMits are liable.
