NEWS & HERALD. MASOJV & ESTILL, EDITORS AND PROPRIETORS. Col. W. T. THOMPSON, Or. J. 8. JONHS, | Associate Kdi tors Official Paper of the City. lARSIST OUUBLATIO* III CITT ARP «0»»T»r, THURSDAY. MARCH 5, THE SPRING TRAD® We have the most satisfactory assuiRuces that the wholesale dry goods merobants and grocers of Sarunnah are making extensive preparations for doing a large jobbing trade this spring, and are prepared to give and now offer as great inducements, and will sell on as liberal terms as aoy other city. The merohants whose advertisements ap pear in our columns, we do not hesitate to assure our country friends, aip exhibiting a great deal of enterprise and much accommo dation to win ths trade of the country tribu tary tib our city, and we know they are well worthy of-haviog ^conferred upon them. It will be seen that they are receiving portion of their spring stocks, and we are pleased to learn that a lively business season is anticipated. It is argued with much force that as the price of cotton has greatly ad vanced, and dealers throughout the country have for many months persisted in the pol icy of small purchases, the process of distri bution and consumption cannot proceed further without a general recourse to the chief sources of supplies. There is, more over, a general conviction that prices are not likely to go lower, at least during the active spriug season, and, as a consequence, buyers evinep far less timidity as regards replenish ing stocks. We speak by the card when we reiterate the assurance that merchandise of all kinds can bo purchased as advantageously in Sa vanuah tvs elsewhere, North or South, and we invite country dealers to teat the ac curacy of this statement by favoring our merchants with their orders. An organization is in progress in St. Louis, composed of Democrats and ex-officers and soldiers of the Union army, designed to counteract the inlluence of the Grand Army of the Republic. P. M. Fullerton iH, or will be, President, and other prominent Conser vatives will bo among its officers. Thk black-and-tau conventions in the Southern States, although having completed their useless labors, refused to wind up and go home. They get up the most ridiculous pretexts for continuing to rob the people at the rate of $20,000 per day. “Thebe is room,” says the Nashville Ga zette, “to suspect that Johnson and Chase understand each other. Johnson bargains to kill Grant in his peculiar way, and Chase bargains to shield the President from im peachment. “To do this is no very difficult matter. Of 64 Senators, it requires Thirty-five wHi mot suffice. need manage only eight Republican Senators to defeat impeachment, fie can do it; and we suspect that he will do it.” It is stated that Mr. Stanton has quietly revived the Freedmen’s Bureau in Kentucky, in the face of General Grant's order discon tinuing it. If we are not liable to “im peachment for high crimes and misdemean ors” for asking a simple question, we beg to inquire: If Air. Stanton is Secretary of War, by what authority has be done this; and if he is not, by what right does he assume so much ?. A leading org-in of the Northern Metho dist Episcopal Church—the Zion’s Herald, of Boston—has come out in favor of perfect equaiity in that Church between whites and blacks. It calls upon the Methodist congre gations in Massachusetts to declare their willingness to receive negro preachers upon the same footing as white ones. New Eng land, says the Herald, which has had to take the lead in every reform, must pioneer this movement, and teach her followers “in New Orleans, Charleston, and Richmond,” that it is folly to build seperate churches for whites and blacks. Thk Lines of ihiB Pbesidxnt’s Defense. —The New York Express says: “The friends Of impeachment say that th# whole thing will be over in six days. The friends of the President say that thirty days will pass before the impeachment will be reached. They have been advised by the ablest coun eel in the land that Senator*' can be objected to as well as jurors, and the men who have prejudged the case cannot sit on the trial. They intend to object to every Senator who has expressed an opinion on the matter, and in case of a denial, to bring forward wit nesses. They intend to contest the matter inch by inch, and use every legal defense that the law allows. If all Senators who have expressed an opinion as to fbe*guilt or innocence of the President shall be set aside, the jury to try the President will be a small one.” ' It will be remembered that after the reading < f one of the President's veto mes sages on “reconstruction,’'in July last, Thad Steven^told the House and the country what he (the leader of tire House) thought about it. Said he: “The President starts by’ asserting in his message what, if true, would support all his arguments. He says the Constitution of the United States is theoretically operative in the conquered provinces of the South. If that wag true, then all we have done here is rank usurpation. I deny that the Constitu tion is theoretically or actually in operation in any of these States.” Here is a frank avowal that the Radical policy is “outside the Constitution.” And yet the Radicals have determined upon the impeachment of Audrew Johnson because he has iusisted that the Constitution is ope rative everywhere on the American soil, and that all, high or low, must obey its provi sions. ' How to Judge Weatheb bt thb Sky.—*■ The following-qiode of judging weather by the sky, is taken from Thomson’s Coast Pilot: Tho color of the fiky at particular times, affords wonderful good guidance. Not only sunset presages fair weather, but there are other limes which speak with equal clear ness aud accuracy. A bright yellow sky in the evening indicates wind; a pale yellow, wet; a natural gray color constitutes a fa vorable sign in Urn evening, and an unfavor able one iu the morning. They are full of meaniugiu themselves. If their forms are soft, underlined, an 1 feathery, the weather will be fine; if their edges are hard, sharp, and definite, \\ will be foul. Generally speaking, any deep, un.usual hues betoken wind and rain, while the more quiet and del icate tints bespeak floe weather, Simple as these maxims are, the British Board of Trade has thought fit to publish them for the use of seafaring men. —The dearest word tin our language is Love. The greatest is God. The word ex pressing the shortest urn*. Is Now- three make the greatest and' sw< XlS ARROGANT AND TioN. thb Jacobins in Congress are trying to Cheat the Northern people out of their liber ties by claiming that as the people are the source of all power in our Government, and. Congress represents the people, therefore Con gress possesses all the power of the people, or absolute power. The Northern Democratic press should warn the people of that section to beware of this plausible, this cunning lie, which is so well calculated to deceive the uninformed and unreflecting. Congress represents the people no more and in no other manner than the President, or the Su preme Federal Court. The people have, in the Federal Constitution, prescribed and de fined and limited the power of all the three independent departments .of the National Government. Congress is as positively re stricted in its jurisdiction and powers as either the Executive or the Judieiary. The people, with their reserved rights and sov ereignty, stand behind all three, and neither of them can assume more power than is granted to them in the Constitution without being guilty of usurpation. This Congress has done, and leading Radicals have avowed the fact That party has, of course, usurped the reserved power of the people, aud the people canDOt sanction that usurpation with out consenting to be made ibe slaves of their servants. The usurpers, of course, will flatter the people by telling them they are the source of all power, and that Congress only exercises, as their representatives, the power of the people. But that is balderdash. The men who promulgate these senti ments are responsible for the hazardous ex periment now making for partisan purposes, and must finish their work, or they will be hurled iguominiously from power and crushed iu the undoing of that which they have attempted. They understand this, and here lies the danger. But it is plain that the right which they claim to do whatever they determine, after the fashion of the French Directory, and shall be done without restraint or limit, cannot be permanent, and oan only be adopted as a means to an end, and when that is reached who shall guard the actors themselves from the revolutionary spirit they have invoked ? Iu the outwork- ings of this principle is the grand hope of those who look for an early restoration ol the supremacy of the Constitution, for when those who have substituted their own arbi trary will for the law are brought to face the exercise of this authority by another hand, and compelled to bow their necks to the tyrant they have enthroned, their eyes will be opened to the error they have committed, and they may be the first to clamor for pre sent freedom and future safety in a restora tion of the checks they despised in the wan tonness of their power. 01SKRANCHISKMKN V IN AEW YORK. It will hardly be credited that the Consti tutional Convention of the State of New York would voluntarily and deliberately disfranchise four-fifths of the public men in the State, and yet if the almost unanimous allegation of the political press is to be relied on the new Constitution, which has just been adopted by the Convention, if ratified and pnt in operation, will work that result lucfuiiumug « — ^ chising clause of the New ConstuutioA 8 ?™ 11 * All restrictions upon voting, taxation, rep resentation, and office holding a,re to be re moved upon the adoption of the constitu tion, the only restriction bein<? the ext lusion from voting at an election of any one who may give or receive a bribe or may pay or promise bribes to be given or received by others; and the Legislature may enact laws permanently disfranchising all persons con victed of direot or indirect bribery. Now, it is a notorious fact that scarcely a prominent politician in the State of New York has escaped the charge of bribery and corruption, and the investigations of their le- gistive commitifees have, from time to time, startled the couotry with developments which have gone far to satisfy the public mind of the correctness of the general charge. Scarcely a measure in which per sonal ambition or pecuniary interests were involved, bag been carried through the mu- uiciple or State Legislature, for several years past, the success of which h&9 not been at tributed to bribery. So common is this be lief that a seat io the City Council has come to be regarded as a post of fortune rather than honor, and the first inquiry in reference to the passage of an important corporation charter through the Legislature is “what will it cost to put it through ?” If bribery is as important an element of'political suc- cessin New York as it is represented to be by the press, and if the provisions of the new constitution should be strictly enforced the disfranchisement in that State will be greater than the disfranchisement in Geor gia, under the reconstruction laws of Con gress. The introduction of the disfranchisement clause in the new constitution is in itself evi dence of the alarming prevalence of bribery. May we not hope that it is also an indication of a virtuous reformation iuthat rt gard V By Telegraph. NIGHT DISPATCHES. M-For telegraphic narteUM. oommeraWInW. ligence. FROM WASHINGTON.

Two more impeachment articles are pend ing. The bill authorizing the Secretary of war to employ counsel to defend reconstruction officers has become a law by the lapse of ten days. Washington, March 4.—Chief Justice Chase writes to the Senate, expressing in mild and somewhat indirraL terms his non- concurrence with some ^Hhe preliminary proceedings, ho'ding tbat^wnen the Senate sits for impeachment trials it sits unques tionably as a court. The Senate must nec essarily receive notice of the intention to impeach from the House, bn* the organiza tion of the Senate into a court should pre cede the actual announcement of impeach ment on the part of the House, aud the ar ticles of impeachment should only be pre sented to the Court of Impeachment No summons or other process should issue except from the organized court sod the rules for the government of the proceedings of the. court should only be formed by the court itself Mr. Chase finds himself unable to come to any other conclusion than the above, but adds, “I am informed that the Senate has proceeded upon other views, and it is not my purpose to con test what ita superior wisdom may have di rected.” House.—Immediately after the meeting this morning Mr. Jenkes proceeded to urge his article of impeachment, declaring that the impeachment would be incomplete with out charging the President with criminal in tent. The previous question failed of - second aud the article was lost. The House then went into Committee of the Whole to proceed with the managers to the Senate to present the articles of impeach ment. The Democratic members remained in their seats. The others formed iu pro cession aud proceeded to the Senate Cham ber. After their return the Tennessee contested election case was taken up, but postponed. General Grant baa been directed to report the number of votes cast for and against the Alabama Constitution. The Military Committee reported a bill for the protection of soldiers and sailors against claim agents. House adjourned. Senate.—The chair FUbmitted a commu nication from Chief Justice Chase, which was referred to a special committee. The resolution to erect a warehouse Fortress Monroe was referred to the Mili tary Committee. The Sergeant at Arms announced the im peachment managers The managers ap proached the Bar, and the accompanying members of the House arranged themselves around on the back seats, Speaker Colfax being seated by Mr. Wade, President of the Senate. Mr. Bingham read the articles of impeachment. Butler’s articles, which quote largely from the President’s most stinging speeches, caused aenation. The Chair said, “(The Senate will take action,” and the man agers retired. A resolution to admit spectators to the galleries by tickets was postponed. A Committee of three Seuators was ap pointed to notify Chief Justice Chase, and conduct him to the Vice President’s seat to- moiDW at 1 o'clock. Several votes to-day indicated a determi nation on the part of the Senate to adhere to its rules, notwithstanding Judge Chase’* letter. The Senate adjourned.

Mr. Farnsworth’s telegraph bill contains fifteen sections, mostly devoted to the pro tection of the public against frauds and in justice from telegraph companies, agents and operators. The President to-day recognized Jean Baptiste Lawson as Consul of France at Richmond, Adolphus Boder as Austrian Consul at New Orleans, Alexis Robert as Consul for the Pontifical States at New Or leans, Carlos Heinsius as Vice Consul for the Argentine Republic at Savannah, and for its dependencies—Darien, Brunswick uud St. Mary’s. The Supreme Court is still engaged in the McCardle case. Mr. Trumbull spoke to day. Mr. Dudley Field follows to-morrow. The Court allows twelve hours to each side.

Liverpool, March 4.—Train has been ar rested for debt. of a i Tfce [From the Nashiile Union A Dispatch.] TUe Drama at Shelby vllle. J. Wilkes Booth, in Avenging tue South, Assassinates Himsilf. The show business in Shelbyville is run on a big scale. No ..ordinary concern can draw a bouse there in wet weather. A few nights since there was one for the benefit of a negro school, and the hills had announced the prodnciion of a sensational representa tion of the assassination of Abraham Lincoln by J. Wilkes Booth. Of coarse there was a tremendous crowd—tremendous in various ways—and many stood up in order that the ladies might—all have seats. A healthy looking darkey named Levi Sparrow took the part of Booth, and some other equally interesting personage appeared as President Lincoln. The great sensation threw every other part of the show into the shade, if that were possible, aud the variegAted audiene awaited with breathless suspence the raising of the curtains upon the most fearful tragedy ever enacted upon the western continent. A church yard at midnight would have been noisy, compared to the amusement hall at the moment when the triangle bade the mysterious calico to lift itself and reveal the assassin and his victim. Up it went, with the grace and regularity of a sheet of tan- bark undergoing a similar process, and the awful spectacle broke upon the gaze of that vasty multitude.. The silence was painful. The miuiature Lincoln sat rolling his eyes toward the awe struck audience, awaiting for Booth to shoot, while Booth might have been taken for Ajax defying the lightning, as he stood there like a carpenter’s com pass, tragically awaiting the culminating poinf- "Sic Semper Tyrannis” burned on his lips. lips.

Several excitable col ored females were thrown into hysterica or something akin, and the excitement for a short time was unparalleled. in the history of shows. On order being restored, how ever, it wsa found that Booth instead of fin- i ishiag the President, had shot himself in the duty j hands, and the avenger of the tfrath was j taken home on a shutter. Another Democratic Victory* Portland, Maine, March 4.—The charter election in this city shows a .Democratic gain of 386 votes since the fall elections. South Carolina Kudical Convention. Charleston, March 4.—An ordinance was presented to-day, appropriating the Citadel, formerly the State Military Academy, for ~ college, grammar and primary schools. The section of the Constitution, making education compulsory, was passed after au animated debate. O.i the proposition, imposing a poll tax of $L lor educational purposes, it was agreed that the penalty for non-payment shall not amount to a deprivation of the right of suf frage. Virginia Radical Convention. Richmond, March 4.—In the Convention to-ilay resolutions approving of the im peachment of the President were adopted by a vote of 55 to 36. The majority report on suffrage, which gives suffrage to all males aver twenty-one years of age who have resided one year in the State and three months in the county, was adopted.
