The Times adds that the transactions of the spring of 1868 have not been so unsatisfactory, and that "apparently there exists a more hope? ful feeling for the future; but tho autumn trade,.it is expected, will be interfered with as usual by the Presidential election. Hence tb' belief is that until next year we can hardly look for an active and remunerative bosi -The Prussian fortifications now in course Of construction by the government, under the direction of Count Moltke, who planned the fa? mous Sadowa campaign, are very complete. The committee is now turning its attention to the placing of the northern coast in a thor? ough state of defence, as they are more ex? posed than any other part of Prussia. The idea of replacing Luxembourg by a fortified position near Tr?ves still exists. The first circumvallations of an extensive intrenched camp, however, are to be constructed now rather than the foundatioh'?f a real fortress. The military posts of the second order ara to be flited up with a telegraphic network Bimilar to the citadels on the Rhino and in Silesia, which have been furnished with them for more than a year. -A Washington letter to the Baltimore Sun says: "A leading politician of the party said to-day that if Grant had not quarrelled with tho President, and impeachment had not been resuscitated after its burial in December last, he would have had no fears as to the result in November. Upon the whole, it may be Baid that the nominations have fallen very flat, and although by the aid of party- music and other appliances a spurious enthusiasm may be en? gendered, it will rapidiy die out. Thad. Ste? vens predicted that if impeachment failed the Radical candidates would be ignominiously beaten, and many far-seeing and sagacious political prophets now express their belief that this prediction will be verified. It may be that if the Democrats are discreet, Grant will be in November just where Scott was in November, 1852." CHARLESTON. TUESDAY MORNING, MAY 26, 1868. The Great \Vhat-la-Jt ? The nomination of ULYSSES S. GRANT the great political what-is-it ?-as the Rad? ical candidate for the Presidency, has taken no one by surprise. General GRAST could not resist the wiles of the Congressional tempters; and when the highest place in the nation and the fatness thereof were rolled out before his gaze, incontinently he fell on his face and worshipped, so jamming his jaws that he has since been able to utter no word of wisdom, and So other formal re? sponse to the "call of the people" than that he is "unaccustomed to publio speaking." GRANT once said that he would "fight it out on this line if it took all the summer," and as he waddled and chatt?d then, so may he slide and crawfish now. But the Uni? ted States has had enough of men who are ordinary* in ability and extraordinary in boorish vulgarity, and now requ?tes some? thing abler and stronger .than the uniformed mediocrity who happened to command-in chief on the day of Appomattox. GRANT is wholly ignorant o'f the political history of his country; he is incapable of comprehend? ing the issues upon whose solution, depend our welfare or ruin; toke the cigar from bis'lips, remove him beyond the white washey perfume of the barrack-room, and he is a well-paid nothing. , Mr. COLFAX, the candidate for the Vice Presidency, is ? man of great shrewdness and intelligence; but it cannot be believed that his nomination will strengthen the backbone of bis chief. Sectional feeling will destroy the power that he might have given the ticket, and the plan of taking both President and vice-President from the same section of the country, must cause luke? warmness, if not active opposition. General GRANT enters upon his last cam? paign with booby confidence, relying upon his political lieutenants to guide him to vic? tory. But the men who won for him the . battles of war, are not the men who pull political wires; nor will mulish obstinacy a?crmcie nm iur?o "avail Against tue ser? ried ranks of the valiant young Democracy. The success of one man-GRANT-would bo the disaster of forty millions of people; with the defeat of this one overrated man, there Bhall come back fortune and happi? ness to dur country. Impeachment Redivivas. This is the day to whioh the High Court of Impeachment' postponed the rote upon the ten remaining articles of impeachment. Unless a further postponement should pre? vail, the main efforts of those who aro bat? tling for conviction will be concentrated on the second article. It reads as follows : ARTICLE n. That on said 21st day of February, in the ?ear of our Lord, 1868, at Washington, in the listrict of Columbia, said Andrew Johnson, President of the United States, unmindful of the high duties of his office, of his oath of office, and in violation of the Constitution of the United States, and contrary to the provi? sions of an act entitled -"Au act regulating the tenure of certain civil offices," passed March 2, 1867, without the advice and consent of the Senate of the United States, said Senate then and there being in session, and without au? thority of - law, did, with intent to violate the Constitution of the United States and the act aforesaid, issue and deliver to one Lorenzo Thomas a letter of authority, in substance as follows, that is to B iv : ExKcrrrrvE MANSION, I WASHINGTON, D. C., February 21, 1868. j Sir: Hon. E. M. Stanton having this day been removed front office as Secretary for the De? partment of War, you are hereby authorized and empowered to act as Secretary of War ad inlerim, and will immediately enter upon the discharge of the duties per taming to that of? fice. Mr. Stanton has been instructed to transfer to yon all the records, books, papers, aud other public property now in his custody and charge. Respectfullv yours* ANDREW JOHNSON. To Brevet Maj. Gen. LORENZO THOMAS, Adju? tant-General United States Army, Washing? ton, D. C. Then aud there being no vacancy in said of? fice of Secretary for the Department of War, whereby said Andrew Johnson, President of the United States, did then and there commit, and was guilty of, a high misdemeanor in office. Mormonism, or something Worse. A nice condition of public morals pre? vails in the Northern States. The newspa? pers tell us that the law courts, which should be the sanctuary of justice and the social decencies, are in the habit of grant? ing divorces to one party to the marriage contract, even in cases where the other party is wholly unaware and studiously kept in ignorance of the very existence of the divorce suit. There are hordes of shyster lawyers who make their living by this sort of practice, and so shamelessly are their proceedings carried on that they publicly anne unce over their own names that they will guarantee to get legal divorces at the shortest notice, and "without trouble or exposure"'-that is to say, without the husband or wife to be divorced knowing anything about it. Is this one of the fea? tures of the new civilization and progress which Radical rule is about to introduce in the Scuth ? The Happy Family. THURLOW WEED does not believe that the Republican party has been irretrievably split by the impeachment verdict, and thinks it will be productive of greater harmony and union* The Radical leaders, he says, now know that there is a limit to their ex-1 cesses, and men like WADE, DRAKE, BOCT WELY and LOGAN, have discovered at last that the people and their tribunals are by no means given over to Radicalism and folly. This view; he argues, is confirmed | by the moderate action of-the Chicago Con? vention. Retaliation, reading out, and in? discriminate vengeance were pocketed, and endeavors were made to bring about har? mony and co-operation. The Democratic journals, nevertheless, are of opinion that the "war of the factions has commenced,' arjd that the "family quarrel" will leave the Jacobins in the condition of the Kilkenny cats, of whom nothing remainq?but their tails. THERE IS little harmony between the friends of PENDLETON and HANCOCK, and the nomination of the one seems likely to produce much apathy among the adherents of the other. PENDLETON holds the strong? est hand, and some of the Southern jour? nals, which hav"6*Bpoken in favor of HAN? COCK, grow discontented enough to declare that the Northern wing merely wishes to make use of them to further the aims of an ambitious aspirant. The Mobile Tribune says that "the South is invited by BELMONT to send delegates (to the National Conven? tion) only that he may attempt to buy them for a mess of pottage," and other papers talk with equal directness. THE CONGRESSIONAL Committees which | are so busily engaged sending for "persons and papers," bullying bank clerks and hec? toring private secretaries, seem to overlook the clause in the United States Constitution which declares that "the right of the peo? ple to be seoure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable seizures, shall not be violated; and no war? rant shall issue but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and par? ticularly describing the place to be search, ed and the person or things to be seized." + ?, ?SB? ?. ? ? THERE HAVE been twenty revolutions, large and small, in Mexico during the last month. Things are getting no better very fast, and the people are beginning te sigh for the murdered MAXIMILIAN. ' The Mexi? can curses are coming home to roost, and murder, robbery and rapine are the order of the day. THE NEW YORK Herald has dropped FAR? RAGUT for President, and strikes out in favor of woman suffrage. If the young ladies are allowed to vote, they ought, at least, to run out of the field the old women politicians who flourish in every State of | the Union. PENDLETON'S FRIENDS are elated by the fact that the Massachusetts Demo? cratic State Convention has adopted a reso? lution in favor of his nom nation as the Presidential oandidate of the Democratic party. IT WAS telegraphed all over the country that Congressman LOGAN had been stoned at York, Pennsylvania. The officers of the train now certify that no such thing oc? curred. No man oould be found without fault, and the first stone remained uncast. xroRNEY SAYS "tne truth is mighty and will prevail." Granted; but what will be? come of FORSET ? Hants.
