Tlic ElecUoiiß,
We are astonished that any one
should have been disappointed in the
recent elections. The result is just
"what we expected, and had no right, in
deed, to anticipate any other. The
Radical party is the most powerful or
ganization on this continent, better dis
ciplined and more thoroughly alive to
its- work. It was not in the reach of
the conservative element, just emerging
into existence, to cope with that party
and beat them at the polls. They have
been steadily aggregating their strength
for many years, and circumstances have
been favorable to their success. The
mere fact of their success and the over
shadowing character of their influence,
will now lend a charm to their move
ments and will attract hundreds and
thousands to their standard.
When we remember that there is
litt'e or no virtue in politicians, and
that they unite for purposes of plunder
—that they want official position arid
intend to fleece the government, we
need not be astonished when we see
the Radicals carrying everything be
fore them in the late elections. They
now have, and have had, for a long
time, matters their own way, and they
intend, at the peril of the Constitution,
■to ride into power and to divide the
spoils.
Did any one suppose that the Phila
delphia Convention would disrupt that
party in the course of a few weeks?—
Was any one so foolish as to believe
t hat a wordy preamble and a series of
Buncomb resolutions would disintegrate
that formidable organization and dis
comfit and put to rout its supporters ?
Have any of us been gullible enough to
believe that the patriotic circumstance
of the South Carolina delegation, Head
ed by Governor Our, and the Massa
chusetts delegation, coming into the
Convention arm in arm, would throw
the Northern mind topsy-turvey and
bring all the knotty cases of that region
headlong into the embraces of tho
Southern people? That Convention
will not weigh a feather in the scales of
correcting the monstrous evils with
which we are now contending. It will
have no more effect than pouring water
upon the parched sand. What if South
Carolina and Massachusetts did come
into that Convention so lovingly. —
That was mere flummery ! It was
simply the great State of Sou'll Caroli
na making an ass of herself !
No; the Radicals are to have their
day, and all that we can or may do, will
not produce any change in their tactics.
They have got hold of the rope, and
they must go to the.end of it. That is
all. We hope, however, they may
hany themselves.
President Johnson to be Execu
ted. —Among other terrible tilings with
which the President is threatened by
the Radicals, is the following, which
appears in the Chicago Tribune. The
writer is talking freely about a war
which is to follow certain contingencies,
and says:
It will be a war in which there will
be a fugitive President, followed by
the execrations of a betrayed and out
raged people; there will be a war in
which this second treason will be made
as odious as he ever wished the first to
be made ; there will be a war in which
the apostate traitor, styling himself
Dictator, will becorne.au object of na
tional scorn during the last hours of his
miserable existence, and finally, in his
execution, furnish an example, for all
coming time, of the fate which traitors
and usurpers may expect at the hands
of a free people, devoted to their liber
ties.
Repudiation in Georgia —Consid
erable feeling is exhibited throughout
Georgia on the subject of repudiation.
It is thought an effort will be made on
the meeting of the Legislature in No
vember to relieve the people from cer
tain debts contracted prior and during
the late war. The plea urged for repu
diation is the loss of the slaves and the
failure of the crops. The amount of
property returned in the State in iB6O
$200,000,000; in iB6O $720,322,777.
Loss to the State, over ?465,000,000.

Tlie Point of Impeachment A Rntlic&l
hut M«derate View
It Is evident, says the Montgomery
Advertiser, that the Radicals are divi
ded among themselves On the question
of impeaching the President —not that
he shall not be impeached at all, but
that lie has not yet committed any act
for which Congress has the power to
resort to that serious business.
Judging by bis late violent speech rtf
Cincinnati, the Commercial, a leading
Radical paper of the West, characterizes-
Gen. 1 hitler an “ unsafe counsellor” and
the “Vallajidigham of bis party.” It
does not regard, as many of the Radi
cal papers, the President’s talk about,
and denunciations of Congress as an un
constitutional body, &e., as ,l a high
crime and misdemeanor,” or that he
should be deposed from his high office,
because he has repeated appointments
that the Senate has refused to confirm,
believing that lie-had the right to do so;
but urges that the proper way to test
the legality of these re-appointments is
for the incumbents to refer the question
to the Courts.
The Commercial doubts whether But
ler’s efforts have contributed to the re
snlt of the recent elections, and asserts
that the vote of the people does not
sustain the mischief-making extremists
in and out of Congress, but must be ac
cepted as an endorsement of the Consti
tutional Amendment. We reproduce
the Commercial’s view on the impeach
ment question, and its note of warning
to those who talk so flippantly of an
other civil war :
“There are few persons in this coun
try so wanting in intelligence as to be
unaware that the impeachment of the
President would at any time be a very
serious business, and that in these dis
| turbed times it would be a hazardous
experiment. It would be, therefore,
| most imprudent to undertake it unless
j there was really a clear case of high
j crime and misdemeanor, as contempla
j ted by the Constitution. We should re
j member that the President’s uufaithfnl
! ness to his party is a different thing
j from treason to the country, as legally
| defined. We must have other than a
! partisan indictment upon which to im
j peach him. or it would be judicious to
let him alone, and try very hard to elect
a better man the next time. Let the
President dare, as has been promised in
his behalf by some of the more furious
of his latter day friends, to refuse to
recognize the validity of Congress—let
him act upon the presumption that it
is a body hanging on the verge of the
j Government, and the time to impeach
him will have come, and the people will
sustain Congress to the bitter end, and
jif need be, the bloody end. But an im
peachment upon such an indictment as
General Butler has presented would he
at imminent hazard of civil war; and of
one thing all agitators may be assured,
and we desire to serve notice upon them
to that effect, that the overbearing
weight'of the fighting power of the peo
ple of this country will be against those
who begin the fight.
The flippancy with which General
Butler speaks df civil war is unpleasant;
and his eagerness to display his animos
ity toward the regular army is painful
ly suggestive of the unfortunate incom
pleteness of his military career. Gener
al Butler has an intense hatred of Gen.
Grant, and regards him as a rival lor the !
Presidency; lienee the talk of the. Boys!
in Blue and the incidental destruction of!
the regular army. We have .only to!
say of this that General Grant lias the.
confidence of the country.; that there is ■
an assurance of safety in his position at j
the head of the army and the public rec
ognition oi his sound discretion. If we
should be drifting into another civil
war, we wish the Boys in Blue far bet
ter luck than to he commanded in the
field by Benjamin P. Butler, unless lie
should show a wonderful improvement
upon any exploits thus far recorded of
him.”
Gen. A. Sidney Johnston. — The
lex as Legislature lias appointed n com
mittee of three—two members from the
House and one from the Senate—to
come to New Orleans and remove to
Austin the remains of the lamented A.
Sidney Joipiston. It was his wish that
he should be interred in bis much loved
lexas. The Legislature has also passed
a resolution, directing correspondence
to opened with Mrs. Johnston, who,
with her children, is hi destitute circum
stances in California, where she remain
ed during the war, earning a bare sup-:
port by her own labor. Should she
wisli to return to Texas and live there,
the Legislature desire to furnish her the
means of doing so, and of educatin' l ' her
children.
At an exhibition of tableaux, given in
Austin a few days ago, the sum of $220 :
in specie was realized for Mrs. Johnston
and her children.
Daring Robbery.— Yesterday the
pay car of the Louisville and Nashville !
Railroad was thrown from the track and
down an embankment near Bristow!
Station, injuring every one on board. — j
$15,000 was taken from the ear by the I
desperadoes who had succeeded in
throwing it oft'the track. One fourth!
of the money has since been recovered.i
It was impossible to procure full par
ticulars in "oganl to the robbery, but il !
was thought to be the work of sonic of i

; George I>* Prnilice’s Interview with
Jeflfcrsoift Bavlsi
Danya' of Secession, at the North —A
Moat T!rit cly I Vurniny,
From the Louisville Journal, sth.
In the course of an interview that wc
had with Jeff. Davis in January, 1805,
the subject of the terms of peace was
introduced. Mr. Davis asked us what
the chief objection of the .North to the
recognition of Southern independence.
W e answered that the North knew per
jfeetly well, as unquestionably he did
i that, if she should lav down her
arms and consent to t division of the
Union into two . Confederacies, she her
self would very soon be dissolved; that
State after State, States singly and
States combinedlv, would secede, and
the whole North be split up into petty
powers or ho powers, all of them con
temptible in the eyes of mankind, and
not one of them witling or able to con
tribute to the payment of the national
debt. Mr. Davis replied, with his char
acteristic calmness, that this was cer
tainly true, but the same thing would
happen, and probably happen all the
sooner, if the. North continues to prose
cute the war. We thought at the time
that Mr. Davis was greatly mistaken
and told him so- We stili trust that
we were correct in the estimate of the
character of Iris opinion, but just now
we can indulge no over-confidence that
we were. The North continued to
prosecute the war, and the South, after
the bravest and most desperate resist
ance known in war’s annals, was
compiled. But now came the North's
trials. Now we are to see the test of
her internal strength. If, out of the
dreadful war between the North and
the South, a Northern civil war arises;
if Northern armies march against each
other, vengeance before them, and blood
and deatli and desert behind, many
Northern States will very soon weary
and sicken of the horrid work, and will
probably adopt secession as the siirest
and quickest remedy, fully relying upon
the mighty troubles and perils°of the
federal government as a perfect securi
ty against coercion. Most likely the
North western States will go off 'first,
repudiating of course, their public debt,
and thus piling higher and higher the
monstrous financial burden upon the
shoulders of the remaining States.
These will have neither the will nor the
ability to bare up tinder the crushing
weight, and so others will secede,
and then others till the whole North
shall be divided it]> into such poor little
non-debt-paying, feeble mock-national
ities an a citizen of one of the Mexican
States or of the South American repub
lics or of one of the petty miserably
German principalities might look upon
with contempt and scorn. Jeff Davis’
declaration to us as the consequences
ot the war to the North, if prosecuted,
will, be amply vindicated, and whatev
er resentments, if any lie cherishes
against tho North will*be abundantly
satisfied. H e tell the Northern j<tma
les, as a lover of our whole countn/ we
solemnly tell them , that, unless madness
has seized upon their hearts and bruins ,
they will not insist on -pushing the d<-
itensions between the JWsidmt and.
Congress to the fighting.point. They
may rest, assured, that if the tight comes,
it will be, to tliem sue.lt a one as they
have no account of in either history or
tradition. They will find it an infinite
ly different tiring from the war of the
rebellion, dreadful as that was through
out all its annals. They will find them
selves a divided people, divided almost
equally, divided and mutually hostile,
whilst the whole population of the South
will be a unit, able to strike for their
friends or stand afar from the flash, the
crack, and the roar of war, as may seem
best for them. The thick cloud now
enveloping the South may be partially
lifted; but night and storm, surcharged
with bloody rain, will close ever the
North. \\ e say to the people of the
North that a very large portion of them
have acted and are acting very unwise
ly, most madly. Their’s is “the very
horror of the moon.” They seem incapa
ble of profiting either by the South’s
experience or their own. They imitate
and follow the South in the most
| unhappy act sue ever committed. The
| South, in 1801, undertook to break tip
and destroy the federal Constitution.
She rebelled against it. She set at
naught its provisions, and attempted to
! maintain her attitude of hostility to it
by force of arms. She failed. As gra
ciously as she coiihl, she recognized the
result. She bowed to the arbitrament
of war; and hag been usirm- whatever
power and influence she possesses in
support of the Constitution sh e strove
so fiercely and desperately .to subvert '
and annihilate. But lo! the Radical!
party of the North, claiming to he an !
overwhelming majority of that great
section, arc now violating and deiy-j
ing the Constitution even the South:
violated and defied it. No sooner
docs the South give up the rebellion,
than the Northern fanatics inaugurate it. .
It is as true that there is a Northern re- .
bellion now, as that there was a ./South- ■
era rebellionflre years ago. Rebellion
has just changed its locality. But just
as it failed in one section, it will inevita
bly fail in the other. It can have no
other future than a future like its past— !
a future of blood, and humiliation and
misery. For years we invoked all the
patriots of the whole country to put
down rebellion in tlie South—we now'
invoke them to quell rebellion in the !
North.

Pol it less
We agree with the New Orleans
Times , that the South is giving entirely
too much consideration to the subject of
politics. Polities are like defamation,'
the -more they are discussed themiorc
angry and notorious they become.
South has had her bane long oiiougllkn
political dissensions; and there
| was a period when these discussions w™
! more unprofitable than now. Wo are
like a set of men standing a long way off
from a field of battle. We are neither
the combatants nor the danger; and yet
we fume and fret, and lire off'our guns,
and brandish our swords, without the
possibility of hurting any one, or of de
fending ourselves. What matters it to
: the South, in tho present aspect ofaffrirs,
what is done by the politicians of the
North? Do we not know that the
whole controversy is tor mere political
power? We are out of the ring. We
! are neither to be favored with office or
j patronage. If we get a member or two
! in Congress, it will be more than we ox
| pect. Then why should we be thrusting
j ourselves forward and uttering bitter
! tilings, the tendency of which is onlv to
. encourage at tacks upon the South and
to invite recrimination ? The result of
I the war has been to change our relations
| politically and industrially. As we
‘ cannot retrieve the forme!', let us restore
! the last' We may effect much by clo -
ring our eyes to all things except the de
! veloping of our resources, and the re
! claiming of our lost ground in art, and
' manufactures and self-dependence. —

! spending there time in watching the
j weather-cock of political changes be

iat home, and devote themselves to the
j consideration of bow. they can best im

invite attention to this system. We are
satisfied that it will pay.— Mout. Ad.

jciDE.—A crime almost too horrible to
: relate was perp. : rated at Morenci, Mich

: fanner in that vicinity, murdered her
four children by cutting their throats.
, In the morning the woman prepared
i breakfast for the family, as usual, and
: nothing was discovered in her conduct
\to excite suspicion. After breakfast Mr
1 Simms made preparations for leaving
home fora portion of the day, and start
ed off, little thinking of the dreadful
scene that was shortly to take place at
Iris home, which would not only envel
ope himself in gloom, but cast a sadness
over the entire Community. lie had
been gone a short time when Mrs. IS.,
taking her four children—all little girls
—went to the barn, entered, and, after
locking the door, cut the throat of each
child and then destroyed herself in the
same manner.
One child, with a ghastly wound in
the neck and bleeding profusely, suc
ceeded in dragging herself to tho house
and informed a servant, who at once
started after Mr. S., and overtaking him
before he reached bis destination, in
formed him of the dreadful tragedy that
had taken place.
Mr. Simms is the owner of a splendid
farm ; his home was pleasant, and
