Firmness our true Position.
"We have never been disposed to conn. :
sol our people to acts of disobedience to
the government, but on the contrary to
urge them to obey the laws and, in all
respects, to demean themselves as good
citizens of the United States. This ad
vice we still give, for it would be worse
than folly to “ kick against the pricks,' 5
as we have no power to wreak onr ven
geance on our enemies, and, besides, we
are nowat peace with them, or, at least, I
nominally so, and it should, therefore,
be our aim to cultivate, if possible, ami
cable relations towards them.
But, nevertheless, there is one thing
which we would, unhesitatingly, advise
our people to do, and that is, to stand
firm and compromise no more rights.—
Take not a further step in yielding or
surrendering a single privilege Die
first, is our motto. Make this country,
from one end of it to the other, another
Golgotha. Starve us out, burn us out,
but in the name ot our illustrious dead,
let us maintain a Roman firmness to the
last.
When we fought them, we fought
them to the bitter end, and asked*them
no odds. Our aims were patriotic and
honorable and we prosecuted them with
unswerving fidelity, # believing that we
were right. Rut having been overcome,
not by superior prowess but by superi
or numbers, we yielded gracefully, and
that was all that should have been de
manded. We certainly did not concede
our birth-right—onr homes and planta
tions —our stock and grain and fanning
implements—our right to the ballot box
and our civil and political inheritances.
These are yet ours, and we would be
worse than the skulking spaniel, were j
we to give them up by any voluntary i
act of ours. To be sure they may take!
them from us by brute force. That they
can do, but let us never be a party to
the infamous transaction. Let us wit
ness it all with a masterly stoicism, and
if we go down we have the consolation
ot knowing that our bands were not pol
luted with the damnable deed of our
own ruin.
Already we have done more than we
ought to have done, but it was for the
sake of harmony and political tranquili
ty, and, therefore, we should not reflect
upon ourselves. Let us go no further.
Impeachment of the President. —
A Washington letter says the articles
of impeachment are actually drawn, and
have bden submitted to some legal ad
visers of the Radical party. They were
drawn by Air. Bigham, of Ohio. They
will never be offered, but a change is
coining over the Northern commercial
interest in regard to the Radical pro
gramme. They will resist the impeach
ment of the President, because it will
produce much financial and commercial
destruction, and, if it result in his depo
sition, will set the Mexican example of
chronic revolution in tiie Executive pow
er. — Hews <& Herald.
We endorse the above’ in toto. It is
the veriest nonsense to suppose that the
Radicals intend to put into execution
the oft repeated threat that they will
impeach the President, and we are ut
terly astonished that any man of com
mon intelligence would believe, for a
moment, any such thing. Impeaching
the President, indeed ! Why, we tell
you they have not the pluck to confront
any such desperate undertaking. They
will, of course, bluster and make a big
noise and have you understand that they
are prepared to fight the devil himself,
but when the fighting becomes a reali
ty, then their courage oozes out all at
once.
But, independent of all this, the large
and powerful commercial communities
of the North and North West, will nev
er consent to an act which they know
win involve the whole country in civil
strife and which would be bound to pro
duce wide spread financial and commer
cial ruin. They will never allow- this,
and already they are taking steps to
cheek the Radicals in their threatenings
to impeach the President. It will nev
er be done !
Colored Suffrage. —The executive
council of the colored men of New-
Jersey have begun three suits, two in
the Supreme Court of that State and
one in the Circuit Court of the United
States, to test whether a black man has
a right to the franchise, and contend
that any State disfranchising its citizens
on account of color “is in that respect
anti-republican and in violation of the
constitution of the United States, which
guarantees a republican form of govern
ment to every State.”
Look on thlii Picture and then on That.
The Chicago Evening Journal is a
Radical sheet of the most approved
pattern. It affects a most Jofty detes
tation for the corruption and niisrule to
bo found in “Democratic” cities, and
pomplacently chuckles over the immacu
late purity of its own Republican city,,
:TTsre'is what it sftys: >
“The St. T.offis Dispatch, a Copper
head Reef of the most malignant type,
speaking of tfco government, or rather
misgovcTiunent, of New York city,
-says: ‘There js something almost ap
palling in the misrule and Corruption in
that city—appalling because it seems ir
remediblc. 5
“When we remember that Mow York
is and always has been a Democratic
city, this condemnation on the part of
the Dispatch becomes'a significant con
fession. The same rs true wherever
i that party bares sway, qnly on a
i smaller scale. The evil is not however,
rirremedibloC, Let Now York follow
i the example of Chicago in putting
Republican officials in charge of muniei
\ pal affairs and the ‘Ring’ of conspirators
i will be broke up and the leak in the
| treasury stopped.”
Just so. Unfortunate New York,
under Democratic control ; happy
Chicago, with Republican officials in
charge of municipal affairs. This would
' all be very nice, of course, and in the
| highest degree satisfactory to the
j Radical contemplative mind, if we
hadn’t a little bit of honest testimony
from another Radical organ, regarding
the real condition of Chicago. Just
look at the picture of a model Republi
can eify —otherwise a modern Sodom—
from a recent number of the Chicago
Post.
“If any living rational, reasoning
creature, is a disbeliever in the total de
pravity of man, a six months’ residence
in Chicago will cure him of the infatu
ation. Few cities of the continent of
America are invested by a race of more
unmitigated villians. Murder, rapine,
outrage, and every other offence in the
catalogue of crime, are daily perpetra
ted. The swift vengeance of the law,
which is almost sure to follow, seems
not to deter the wretches from pursuing
j the object of their malice, cupidity
|or passion. Virtue is made the sport
|of every designing Lothario, andbodly
i entering the sacred precincts of the do
mestic circle, they snatch their victims
from homes of happiness and virtue,
and consign them to disgrace and
infamy.”
There! Now “let New York follow
the example of Chicago in putting Re
publican officials in charge of municipal
affairs,” and if that great city does not
immediately thereafter meet the fate of
Sodom, then yc are no prophet That’s
ail.
Hold on Reverend.
We find in Parson Brownlow’; pa.
per the Knoxville T Vhig, Oct, 3d, 186(5,
the following:
“The editor of the La Crosse Demo
crat was driven outside the Federal
lines during the war for swindling and
stealing. This makes it entirely ap
propriate that J. W. Patterson should
copy his blackguardism. The fact that
the Wisconsin fellow, Pomeroy, is a
swindler, make him and Patterson
“twin cherries on one stem.”
We could copy a column editorial
from the La Crosse paper eulogizing
Booth as a patriot for assassinating Lin
coln.
Beloved bell muzzled Brownlow, you j
are not posted. The editor of the Demo- j
or at has never been charged with |
stealing or swindling any person, corpo- I
ration, society, government, State, j
county, city, town or village out ot one j
little red penny. Yv’e will correct your j
item by publishing exactly what Gen. j
Prentiss was pleased to have us driven ;
out for, and then ask the Whig to do j
us the simple justice to drop that ;
count in its indictment. Will the Whig
and its editors please read.

Chicken Justice ftn La Crosse—Brick
in TronUle.
ANOTHER LAVVSUfTt
Monday forenoon there came oft be
fore Police Judge John Hubbard,in this
city, another' lawsuit, the particulars of
which are '. • ■a*--
Reinhardt Hendricks, on the 17th of
SoptemWr, brought suit against ‘Brick’
Pomeroy, to recover pay for two roos
ters shot by the defendant with a revol
ver, the chickens belonging to plaintiff,
to the value of fifty cents each. Thro’,
the kiudnes's ofthe judge, the case has
been adjourned from week to week till
the return of.the defendant from an
electioneering lour stq ludlamia. This
morning the case cafoe. off, ox-Mayor
Hon, James I. Lyndos befog the counsel
for the prosecution, the defendant ap
pearing in his own defence.
The. court room was crowded, for the
j idea of trying an editor for stealing or
| shooting chickens, was a novelty. The j
plaintiff brought in his bill, swore to its
correctness, testified that he owned the
chickens, that they were raised by a |
lien belonging to him, tiiat lie saw de
fendant shoot them, that he had repeat
edly asked the defendant to settle for
them, and failing to get pay or satisfac
tion he was compelled to bring suit,
and asked for judgment of one dollar
and costs.
The defendant admitted shooting the j
j chickens, and proved by four reliable |
. witnesses the following facts :
In April, 1866, the defendant owned a
fast running trick mare, “K tty,” which
i animal was kept in a stable hired by j
him, and cared for by one of bis employ
ees. Through a little hole in the barn
I or stable, one of the hens, a black one,,
made her nest, laid thiitcen eggs there
in, and proceeded to raise a family. —
AY ben the hen got ltfady to set, the de
fendant instructed the man who took
care of bis mare, to go down and pur
chase thirteen eggs of J. W. Robinson ;
& Cos., grocers, and put them in the
nest, first removing the other eggs.
The boy did so, as was proved. lie
then personally drove the hen out of
the stable a dozen times or more,--lie
tried to make her leave —she would not,
but proceeded to incubate his eggs, du
ly bought and paid l’or, without his con
sent, leave or license after repeated ef
forts on his part and by his agents to ;
have her vacate his premises. And far
ther, wben the lien had hatched Ins
eggs, she ran away with his chickens,
eleven in number, two eggs not produc
ing chickens.
To her services lie brought an offset,
the me of stable and board bill in the
shape of oats —he charged her with the
two eggs she spoiled, and demanded
judgement for the balance of the flock
nine in number, at fifty cents each.—
And besides lie proved that the chick
ens did not belong to that hen, as she was
black, while the chickens were red or
speckled ! Hendricks has sued all bis
neighbors for some little trilling matter
half a dozen times during the last two
years. After a patient hearing, the
Judge decided that there was no cause
of action, and that the defendant was
entitled to the other nine chickens, and
the plaintifi must pay the cost of the
suit, amounting t0517,37-J. — La Crosse

Visitors to Mr. Davis. —A Fortress
Monroe letter says:
The Davis family, in their home in
the “fortress by the sea” have, for sever
al days past been honored with the
presence of several visitors, 'ihe arri
val here of Charles Broderick, Esq., of
Bethlehem, Pa., formerly a State Sena
tor, and lady ; a Mr. James McKibben, j
of Maryland, and Mrs. Wood and three I
children, all bound upon the same mis- \
sion, to see Mr. and Mrs. Jeff. Davis, j
have been noticed. These visits of]
friends to the Davis family bo often now j
occur as toexeite very little attention,!
their going and coining being quietly
connected. Arriving there early in the
j morning by the Baltimore steamers,
! oftentimes before sunrise, they remain ,
j at the Ilygeia Hotel for breakfast, and;
having obtained permission from Briga-j
j d:er General S. II Burton, commandant 1
t ofthe fortress, to enter the fortress—
| and is never refused —they remain there
! till their visit expires, save when attend
j ing their meals. Now and then occur
j the visits of his counsel, or more impor
tant personages, tut in every case per
mission to enter the fortress is granted,
the utmost limits of social amities are ex
tended them, and unrestricted communi
cation with Davis and his family is al
lowed. Occasionally an ox-rebel officer
arrives here, and although it is said there
was an order issued some time ago
strictly forbidding the presence of such
in the fortress, they have but little diffi
culty in obtaining an entrance and the
privilege of visiting the prisoner.
'! lie arrivals to-day were Dr. S. J.
Wheeler, of MuriVeosborro, N. C,
formerly colonel of the twelfth North
Carolinia cavalry, and a Major Burton,
of the tenth North Carolinia artillery,
both old friends of Mr. Davis. They
both entered the fortress this morning
and remained all day.
A Gentleman in one of the churches
of Providence, R. 1., has acquired the
habit of sitting perfectly erect and with
out nodding, while fast asleep ! A vis

I er city such specimens of devout station
ary ?
A sea officer who had lost his hand
by a grape-shot was in company with a

hand.
“ A noble ball, madam,” said he, ‘for

The Tribune on Sherman. —The
Tribune is evidently getting alarmed at
the prospect, and manifests a disposition
to vent spleen and scatter saliva on the
men who did the fighting on the Union
side in the late war. In its late issue,
iit says through its Washington corres
pondent :
I, I am informed that General Sherman
; lias made a second surrender to the reb
els, more disastrous to bis fame than bis
celebrated surrender to Joe Johnston.—
\Ve all know that the General is Con
servative, but despite Grant’s order not
to interfere with polities, lie makes his
conservatism puiitieal. He lias written
to the President, indorsing the policy
unequivieally, sustaining the President’s
course since Lee's surrender, and rna
j king no allusion to the amendment.—
I This letter is held in reserve, and will be
1 printed just before the New York elect
ion, in tiie hope of carrying over some
half-and-half Republicans.
2-3T’ The following is a sample ofthe
style in which such journals as the New
York Herald and New York Times lead
! the Fouth into the indorsement of a
j policy, and then turn around and abuse
them :
The New York Herald and the New j
York Times—two papers that made the ,
most noise over tlie 1 lii'adelphia August j
Convention, and shown the most zeal
in getting the South into it, and then
dishonorably turning upon it, and us,
and labored for the late Radical triumph
continue to give daily advice, and ad
dress daily exhortations of the South-*
era people, based on fresh promises and .
new assurances ! They seem to think '
that our credulity and simplicity are as
exhaustless as their own hardihood.— j
llichmond Inquirer.
Chief Justice Gen. But
ler. —The Sgringfield (Mass.) Republi
can of the 19th inst, makes the follow
ing point.
The Washington correspondent of the
New York Herald States that Chief
Justice Chase used his influence to pre
vent the nomination ot (general Butler
for Congress in the Fifth District of this j
Slate, and wrote to an influential friend
in the district reccommendiitg him to
make an effort to prevent Butlers nomi
nation. Whatever of truth there may
be in this, it would be natural enough
that the Chief Justice, should be un
willing to see Butler in Congress, which
,is considered in his case a stepping
| stone to tiie Presidential nomination in
jlFtiß. Blit the Democratic leaders are
glad to see it and will do* all they can
to further the scheme. They hope that
Butler in Congress will keep up his war
upon General Grant and drive the latter
into a position where he will be willing
‘to take the Conservative nomination,
and with Grant against Butler, tney
feel sure of an easy victory. Os course
this prospect does not suit the chief
Justice, who must realize his asperation
in 186$ or give them up altogether
This runs the Presidential speculations
ofthe hour, all of which may ho scatter
ed to the wind long ago before the
grand canvass begins in earnest.
Foote being annoyed by a poor fid
