Attention is directed to the article below, copiad from that ably con? ducted poi.cical journal, the Phila? delphia Age. The facts so clearly presented by the writer, confirm the belief that upon tho re-opening of Congress, the radicals wili modify their programme, and that no mea? sure proposing an impeachment of the President will bo introduced. The roaring of Beast Butler, thc asthmatic imprecations of Brownlow' and thr> dyspeptic dilations and pre? figuring of Wendell Phillips, are not to be regarded as anything bat the biased views of those who give them utterance. They do not represent the solid men of tho Republican party; and these latter have sense enough to know that impeachment ol' the President means war-civil war neighborhood war-not war, like the last, between the North ami South, but war in the free North-a war that would at once destroy the na? tional credit ami ' pple the Govern? ment into* ruins. The following is the article ?f the Age: The result of the recent elections in several of the Northern States, when carefully considered, is not of a cha? racter to alford the most intense plea? sure to the Butler-Forney "Torch - aud Turpentine" section of the radicals. lu revolutionary times, something depends upon how near the parties are equally divided. We doubt if even Cromwell would have begun his war upon prerogative in Englaud, if he could have polled the nation and found that the gap be? tween Roundheads and Cavaliers would be filled by a few thousand men. And this lesson, when presseVt upon the leaders of the impeachment cabal, and reinforced by facts and figures drawn from the contests just ended ia Pennsylvania, Ohio. In? diana and Iowa, may have some effect upou their fears, if not upon their cousciences. It is true that the radicals have car? ried all the States named on the popu? lar vote. In this State they have made a trifling gain in the Congres? sional delegation. But the ratio of their strength in the Congressional delegation is not a measure on the popular vote. The great fact is that the Congressional Districts have been most infamously Gerrymandered. Radical 1 egislatorshave arranged them with tho single parp?se of electing members of Congress against the opi? nions of the majority. The minority has been totally disregarded by cor? rupt men to serve their own political purposes. Take the case of t Iiis State. Gen. Geary is chosen Gover? nor by a majority of not more than 10,000 votes in" a poll of 000,000 votes. Now, this ratio would give the Democrats 292,000 and tho radi? cals 308,000 votes. The difierence, when expressed ia proportionate terms of twenty-four, the number of Congressmen, would represent just two-thirds of a member. The radi? cals, therefore, would be entitled to thirteen members inji fair apportion - meat and distribution of the vote, and the Democrats to eleven. Bat tho Statu is so districted as to allow 0 the radicals to obtain seventeen of tho members, leaving the Democrats bat seven. Ia Ohio, and Indiana, and Iowa, the same plan of arranging districts has produced similar results. But the main fact stands out ia bold relief everywhere, that on the popu? lar vote the radicals have lost heavily in all the States ia which elections have taken place this fal!. Now, look at tho division of the 1 people of the North by the light of that revolutionary torch which the radicals are holding up when they threaten to depose ami murder the j President, if he will not yield the j control of the Government into their j hands before the assembling of the ' coming Congress. A majority of six? teen or tea thousand ia a poll of more than half a million of votes may elect a Governor, and when managed an undue and unfair proportion of represe 1 tat i ves in Congress. But, in any other aspect, it is ol' no account, i Could such, a majority save the lead? ers of the "Torch-and-Turpentine" : faction from the indignation of the i freemen of this State, if they attempt to murder the President and seize upon tho reins of Government? ; Could this small difference turn the scale, if don. Geary should presume I to use the arms and power of the I State to aid the radical traitors in their work of overthrowing the re I public and placing a despot in the j White House, instead of a man elect j ed by the people? When the "Torch-aud-Turpentine" ! faction talk of disregarding tho Con ? stitution and laws of the land, and i taking hold of the Government by ; force, they must not forget that no corrupt districting would then ope? rate against a portion of the freemen of this State, but that they would be united and stand almost man to man with the radicals on the soil of old j Pennsylvania in defence of ! he Union and rights-of the people. The mea? gre majorities which sustain the radi- j cals should make them pause, espe- i cially when they see that they are j losing instead of gaining ground by | their revolutionary and destructive ; policy. The. division of parties in ? ?tho election of Congressmen, aided j by such unfair means as have been ttsod in districting the State, is ono! thing. The division of parties when the radicals shall dare, to uprear the : black banner of open resistance, to j the Constitution, and whet the axe | and prepare the block to remove all j obstacles from their path to rincon- i trolled power, is quito another, and j before that step is taken, let the real I division of parties in this Stale bei care f nil v consid cr ed. THE SOOTH.-Tue South is receiv- j iug about this time a good deal of ! advice-some of it is wise, and some ; of itotlierwi.se. The following para? graph, extracted from an article in | the Mobile Times, stands, we sup? pose, in tire former classification : Let us, therefore, be patient; na- j tions are not erased from tho face of I the world at the word of a parcel of ' petty tyrants. Two millions and a j half armed men have passed like a j scourge over our land, and already \ their fiery track is covered with j blooming harvests. What these hordes could not ac? complish with the sword and torch is not going to be accomplished by the verbose d?clamations of a Sumner or the mad and rabid divagations of a Stevens. Let. the South, we say, stand aloof from the theatre of national politics; let her avail herself of this time of repose, to revise her domestic code. Let her turn to intellectual pursuits, from which she has allowed herself to become estranged, and, uniting her efforts on the great theatre of indus? try, retrieve her wealth and prospe? rity, and come out of this trying period like gold from the crucible, clear from all its native inherent im? purities.
