COLUMBIA. Sunday Morning, September 15,1867. Impeachment-Wlmt will Follow. Tho Cincinnati Commercial, a rather conservativo Republican paper, and heretofore opposed to tho impeach? ment of the President, states that it is now a foregone conclusion. This remark of the Commercial, as well as other indications from this samo class of moderate journals, induce the be? lief that the moderate branch of the Republican party, which h?? hereto? fore opposed impeachment, is now getting ripe for it, and that tho only remaining question seems to be, who shall bo the successor of tho Presi? dent. The Commercial says : "There is an impediment to im? peachment in the shape of the pre? siding officer of the Senate, Mr. Wade, who would become the acting President, in case Mr. Johnson was removed. Mr. "Wade's wild words in Kansas, which he hos not undertaken to explain to the people of Ohio, though he has been before them on several occasions, and his fury of speech at Marietta and Portsmouth, have greatly impaired pnblio confi? dence in his judgment." The New York Herald has informa? tion that the scheme of supplanting Wade with Stanton, and then im? peaching the President, to clear the way to the Presidency, is assuming -definite shape. It will thus bo per . eeived that power and place are ex? clusively the governing principles of the party now in power, that the we1 faro of the country is totally ignor? ed, that negro suffrage and negro supremacy are mere working tools, to enable them to wall up the strength they now see threatened, from divi? sions within and popular opposition without. The weal or woe of the' country depends upon the descent or continued triumph of the party in power. Tho indications mado clear? ly manifest in the recent State elec? tions, cannot be misunderstood; and the Republican leaders are trembling in their shoes at those evidences of tho returning good sense and con? servatism of tho American people, from tho slopes of the Pacific to Maine; their political fabric, founded upon fanaticism, and reared upon sectional prejudice, is tottering to its foundation; for the people so will it, and tho reign of terrorism, under the rule of tho conspirators-Wade, Ste? vens, Sumner and Phillips-is about . to close, consigning its principal sup? porters to oblivion, except as their misdeeds may be handed down on the records of infamy. As to impeachment, these sapient politicians and journalists, who are babying themselves in selecting a successor to President Johnson, we imagine, are counting their chickens before they aro hatched. It is true, that for months-nay, for two years post-tho President seems tr. have been paralyzed, either from the fear of pnrty plots and conspiracies, or, what is moro likely, from n sincere desire to unite the country, by con? ciliation and forbearance, li ?it it is evident that lie has ?it last awakened, either from his supposed stupor or lethargy, or seeing that tho best in? terests of his country aud the main? tenance of the Constitution admitted of no further tlolay, and demanded vigorous action, re has launched one vigorous blow after another, in thc defence of tho Constitution and thc rights of the people, and evidently hoi determined to bear np tho pillars oj republican liberty, and defend thc Constitution he bus sworn to main tain," or perish in the attempt. Thc American people will come to hil rescue. -? Wouldn't it bo well for the coloree folks to consider the fact that tin wonderful changes in sentiment ii Kentucky, Connecticut and Califor nia, to say nothing of other Northen States, is simply opposition to negri or mixed suth ige. Wo advise then lo think ab? ut it well beforo tho; . throw themselves into tho trouble some sea of political strife. The om is not yet, and tho whites will ml this continent. --.-???-?

Th boiler was hurled through tho air distunco of ono hundred and lift yards, falling upon tho roof of a foui story dwelling, and crushing its wn to tho cellar. Tho foreman, cngineoi a mau and two children were killoe and several others wero severely ii jared. REVOLUTION.-Radical j ou ru al? at thc South are emphatic in their de? claration that Congress will not sub? mit to the constitutional proclama? tions of President Johnson. They strive, in the same breath, to fasten the guilt of inciting revolution upon, the conservative papers. That's an old trick. Resolved upon war, or pre? tending to bc, in case of defeat in politics, they vehemently and basely denounce innocent men os incen? diaries and strife-provokers. It is a sly game, but a foolish one. If any war should grow out of present per? plexities, the Southern conservatives will have nothing ta do with it; but, from tho organization and drills of the Grand Army of the Republic, Loyal Leagues, &c., the Southern ra? dicals seem determined to have a sanguinary finger in tho pie, although the pie should be baked a thousand miles away.

COKESBURY, ABBEVILLE DISTRICT, September 10, 1867. MESSRS. EDITORS: I have just seen, in your paper, the amnesty procla? mation of.President Johnson. Some imagine that it confers upon all Southern whites (except those who are excluded from its benefit) the privilege of suffrage and eligibility to office, and thus relieves nearly all tho disfranchised under the Military Acts of Congress. I cannot concur in this conclusion, however desirable. Tho proclama? tion can only amount to a general pardon for the offences of the late civil war, and releases from any lia? bility to a trial for treason-releas38 all the supporters of the late South? ern Confederate cause. As the par? doning power is only vested in tho Executive by tho Constitution, and as, therefore, the right to grant amnesty pertains to that department, this proclamation preserves the South? ern peoplo from trials for treason; and as, under tho Constitution and tho existing law, there can be no confiscation of property, except after a trial and conviction for treason, the proclamation precludes tho confisca? tion of Southern lauds, ?iud forever blocks the radical schemes in regard thereto. This deprives tho Northern radical faction of tho fulcrum of their leverage in moving and mislead? ing tho negroes of the South. This will prevent another civil war and a war af races. Tho dependency of tho negro upon tho white for sub? sistence furnishes thc game. Whito supremacy is secured. Long live the President! Respectfully, J. C. Funeral Invitation.

We trust it will prove interesting, and may be practically instructive to our friends below, to give them some of the prices current, in this region of pure air and Teutonic honesty. Beef bought by the quarter, may be had at from three to fivo cents a pound, and the beef is of excellent quality generally; while at retail the price varies from 5 to 8 cents. Mut? ton is sometimes cheaper than beef. Bacon and lard rango from 12>? to 20 cents n pound, depending upon the supply of other meats. Venison of the iinest quality sells at from 5 to 10 cents a pound. That is to say, beef, mutton and venison all sell at about the same price. Chickens can be readily bought at from 12^ to 15 cents, while eggs never go above 10 cents a dozen, and three dozen for a quarter, were bought a fow days ago. Butter costs from 15 to 20 cents a pound. Irish potatoes cost, varying with the time ot the year, from 50 to 75 cents a bushel; and sweet potatoes never go above 50 cents. Flour sells at $10 a barrel. Corn just now-the old crop-costs $1.25 a bushel; but not a single man with whom we have conversed, expects that the new crop, I soon to come in, will command moro I than 50 cents a bushel, if even so I much. Oats were recently sold at 83 cents a bushel. Rye brings $1.50; but the new crop must bring it down to SI. North Carolina apples sell readily at 50 cents a bushel, and country apples are rather lower. House rent, too, is at corresponding? ly low figures-the best houses in Walhalla rent at about $10 a month; and smaller houses rent at $5, and there are many that can be rented for less than that. The Blue Ridge Railroad, you aro avrare, comes nominally to Walhalla; but in fact it stops two miles short of the town, so as to give one a pleasant drive in the omnibus before coming too suddenly upon the town. As long as this arrangement continues, present prices will probably remain; and, when the railroad shoots on post through the tunnel, and away into North Carolina and Tennessee, of course prices will rather fall than rise. From the Walhalla depot to the tunnel-about ten miles above here-the road is nearly, if not en? tirely graded; and the tunnel is about two-thirds done. Thero is no work? ing now on this end of the road, but rumor says tho Tennessee end is be? ing brought Southward as fast os possible. The Greenville Company is run? ning the Blue Ridge road to this place now. It charges enormous freights; but if a little practical wis? dom were infused into its counsels, to induce it to put down these exor? bitant rates to about half, the amount of freight would-so sensible resi? dents think-be increased about five . fold. But penny wisdom is likely to have its usual . result-pound folly. D. 88 Congregation Shearith Israel.
