Kinari!, Newberry. Samnel Drouthitt, Greenville C. li. Wm. Moore, Abbeville C. H. Julius Poppe, Anderson C. H. Radicalism Upon the Wane. Five long months have dragged on since the initiation of tho war of the radical conspirators against the Pre? sident. Though the organ of the Btar-chamber cabal declared long since tliat "the organization which elected Lincoln and Johnson was in hearty accord with the proclaimed opinions of the latter, and every Union Go? vernor in the republic had formally tendered his support to the head of the Administration ; and in thc prima? ry meetings ot the Union party, tho .warmest demonstrations of attach? ment to his policy had been made," yet, from the inception of Mr. Col . fax's mischievous speech down to the present time, every act, every mea? sure, every intrigue, every force pos? sible, have been incessantly urged by Congress in an intensa and ferocious warfare to crush the President. When the large number of confiding and inexperienced Republicans who nt first doubted and distrusted Thad? deus Stevens and his destructive policy, were finally coaxed, or flat? tered, or intimidated iuto sustaining it, then commenced a united and systematic movement to proselyte with all Republicans in position and of prominence throughout thc coun? try. The latter were allured by the pleasing prospect of the South at their feet, more replete with resources for plunder than was described of Italy by Buonaparte to his conquer? ing veterans, when, after surmount? ing the Alps, that classic land laid in smiling beauty and in unequaled fer? tility before them. "Was this plun? dering inducement of Mr. Stevens, like that of a sardonic character of old, who promised all the kingdoms of the earth to Him who taught to love an enemy, to be lost sight of, much more not clutched and hugged to the bosoms of mercenary politi? cians? If the repor some time siuce in the Republican presses were true, that an Assistant Secretary of tho Treasury, aided by especially keen detective agents, had discovered that the Government had been de? frauded, in cotton aud other transac? tions, of 8100,000,000 by venal Trea? sury Agents, anny officers and officials of the Freedmen's Bureau, is it to be supposed that among such vi carions patriots and those "new swarms" of like kidney that have since descended upon a conquered and unarmed peo? ple, there will be lack of forthcoming testimony to prove that that people aro more disloyal than at any time since the beginning of the war? Will not these spoliators of the Govern? ment and the Southern people be sure to find that the negro is subject? ed to an intolerable oppression? Where there are such most excellent rr- aud lunch approved persons, can the star-chamber cabul fail of testimony to convict the public mind of the in? durated disloyalty and atrocious cruelty of the Southern people. But to recur to the management of Congressmen to make tho Republican party a unit against the President. Having successfully procured tho ad? hesion of the mercenary, corrupt and designing, they commenced by speeches to fire the hearts of the masses. Systematic correspondence was entered into, by which Gover? nors of States and State Legislatures were induced to co-operate with Con? gress, and exercise their influence in au inferior sphere upon lesser lights ni partisanship. The machinery of office-holders in Executive Depart? ments, at custom houses, in post offices, on mail routes, throughout tho web and woof of the jurisdiction of tax officials, in military quarters xs much as possible, and in circles of contractors and expectants of con? tracts and offices-one and all of theso powerful agencies were made instruments to agitate, influence and inflame the public mind to the fever point against the President and in behalf of Congress. But notwithstanding tho use of all this machinery to menace, to corrupt, or to deceivo the electors, they have everywhere relucted from the usurp in g measures of the reckless tyrant of Congress, and shown to the world that "Andrew Johnson sits on high in all the people's hearts. " The last that was heard, officially, from the star-chamber cabal concern? ing restoration was vouchsafed, some six weeks since, through a report upon the case of Tennessee, which, it was then stated, was so manipu? lated, at the instance of Mr. Conk ling, as to make it a hollow and in? sulting mockery to that people. It was BO, because it contained views purposely lugged in to challenge a veto, and because the conditions were framed so as to give an excuse for a radical Congress to deny that the conditions to restoration had been complied with. But we now hear, in Republican quarters, that a change has corni, over the dreams of the dis u monists, even in the inner temple of the star-chamber. They are dissen? tient, l>elligerent. Outside, their for? mer tame and servile followers have declared their independence like men. It is stated that many of the State delegations have constituted them? selves sub-committees on reconstruc? tion as to what course such delega? tions shall take, irrespective, we take it, of the dictation of Mr. Thaddeus Stevens; that certain Western asso? ciates of Mr. Colfax himself, who has done such conspicuous mischief, will not stand the proposition to force negro suffrage upon States; that the Newf York delegation are for an affirmative restoration policy, and that Tennessee must be immediately admitted to the Union. All this change has been effected, says a Republican correspondent of the New York Times, by the "near approach of the summer aud full elections, anti the prospects of mem? bers to be returned to tho next Con? gress." How fur these revelations of Re? publicans are true we know not, but in the name of the people, who, at the late elections, have spoken in such thunder-tones to Congressmen, we can say to them that no trifling measures, no partial legislation, in the way of mockery, delusion, or error, will now satisfy the people, or ingratiate their favor, or restore their confidence. Congress must coma u}> to the full measures <>f the President's policy, in its exalted, ennobling and hu? manizing spirit. The civilized world, that has its eyes attentively upon us, invokes to pacification and union. Every element that calls for the exer? cise of head-work, healt-work, or hand-work, imperatively demands the restoration of States. [ National Intelligencer, loth. There is a strong probability of "Rummer butler" being white-wash? ed into a state of moderate respecta? bility. During the past fortnight his prospects have brightened very ma? terially, lu the first place, two valiant bank officials rushed into print to vindicate Butler from all suspicion of having pocketed the funds of a savings bank, lu tho second place, the counsel for a New Orleans broker, named Smith, from whom Butler took $50,000 iu gold, gave him a certificate last week that the seizure v as properly made, and the certificate so delighted B. F. that he straightway paid over the 850,000 to Smith's attorney. The certificate was well worth the money, and so emboldened Butler that he at once swore that tho great rebellion had bankrupted him. After the skillful whitewashing of Cataline hy Louis Napoleon in his life of Ctesar, the elaborate defence of Nero anil Caligula by Thomas I)e Qnineey, and the complete vindi? cation of Judas Iscariot by a German philosopher, we think there is a strong probability of somebody's making, ono of these days, a "whiled sepulchre" at least of Butler's reputa? tion.-Richmond Times. IMMIGRATION.-It appears from a statement in thc March report of tho Commissioner of Agriculture, that the number of immigrants that ar? rived at the port of New York during the year 1865, was 200,031. A New Orleans letter says that Hon. J. P. Benjamin, has already taken rank as "a good, first class lawyer" in England; and that he will settle there permanently. For Sale, I?TINE MILCH COWS.
