•9-ft W. I E EDITOR. Thursday, May 21, 1868. E S E KL.K VKN'VI A I E O S O O E S Stor is a On Saturdo)', May 16th, the Senate proceeded to vote on the Eleventh Ar ticle of impeachment. It has been gen erally understood that the Eleventh Ar ticle would get wore votes in favor of conviction than any other. The result of the vote was as follows: Guilty 3 5 not guilty 19. Necessary to convict, 36. The Impeachment court thereupon adjourned to May 26th at 12 M., when the vote will be taken on the remaining articles. Nothipg can be more huuiil-' iating to the Republican party, and in fact to the lovers of liberty throughout the world, than the result of this vote. A few journals yet flutter themselves that somehow or in some way the great criminal will yet be convicted. W see no hope. The Republican party is betrayed—not only by Andrew John son, and Poolittlc, and Norton, who long ago went over to the enemy, but by men whom it has cherished up to the latest hour: Van Winkle, Ross, Henderson, Fowler, Grimes, Trumbull, Fessenden, Salmon Chase. Only a few days ago we placed the utmost confidence in their integrity, and numbered them among the pillars of the party. To-day they are our be trayers, selling us- out like sheep in the shambles, at the bidding of AD drew Johnson, whom they have heretofore so loudly denounced. The air is thick with rumors. The Impeachment man agers claim that millions of money have been used upon the Republican Sena tors who voted for acquittal—and they are taking testimony upon the subject. The N. Y. Iribune charges ths same thing, while others claim that it is a political coup d' etat to defeat Wade for Vice President and Grant for Pres ident—and to either foist Chase and Fessenden upon the Chicago Conven tion or destroy the party. It is high time that the rank and file of the Republican party should look well to their leaders. This great party of Liberty and Human Progress belongs not to the comparative handful of shys tering demagogues and office leeches, who havo fastened themselves upon it to control it or to destroy it! No! It belongs to the great honest mass of American freemen who compose it, and to the cause of liberty throughout the world. Minnesota has her share of disgrace in this shameful result. The vote ot Daniel S. Norton could have turned the scale and convicted the betrayer that chuckles in the White House.— Daniel S. Norton a name only less in famous than that of Andrew Johnson— Daniel S. Norton—sent to the Senate by the radical Republicans of Minne sota Shame! Shame! Shame Daniel S. Norton—the traitor—foist ed to the seat of the noble—the betray ed Wilkinson—by the radical Republi cans of Minnesota! There are some facts connected with the election of Daniel S. Norton to the U. S. Senate, that we deem worthy to be generally known—not only as illus trating the treachery of men whom the party has trusted in high places—but as showing the value of a single vote. Mark how one vote through several suc cessive steps has effected at last, in all probability, a momentous result, endan gering not only a great political party, but (he rights and liberties of the whole nation. At the Wright county Republican Convention in the fall ot 1864, H. L. Gordon, now of this city, was a candi date for State Senator. He was de feated by G. D. George, of Rockfotd, by one vole (two years afterwards he was nominated by acclamation and elect ed by a very large majority, running five hundred votes ahead of his ticket in Wright county.) The defeat of Mr. Gordon at the con vention in 1864, was accomplished through the treachery of a delegate in that convention who was elected by Gordon's friends, and who got his elec tion by express pledges to support him for State Senator at the convention. After Mr. George's nomination, Mr. Gordon "took off his coat" and worked earnestly to secure his election. Th« district was at that time close, Mr. George frequently said that he felt un der great obligations to Mr. Gordon for his effective aid in the canvass. Mr. George was. elected by about 150 ma jority. When the Legislature conven ed, and the Senatorial contest between Wilkinson and Norton was fairly up, Mr. Gordon went to St. Paul and re mained several days, working for Wil kinson. He labored specially with Mr. George who appeared inclined to sup port Norton, and before he left the city got a solemn promise from him, that he would support Mr. Wilkinson steadily throughout the contest. Returning home, he and nearly all the other lead ing Republicans of'Wright county, in eluding all the county officers, signed and forwarded to Mr. George a letter urging him in behalf of the Republicans of that county to stand by Mr. Wilkin son. The senatorial contest terminated in the Republican caucus by the nomina tion of Dan. Norton over Mortor. S. WUkinson by one vote. G. D. George, forgetful of his prom ise and against the wishes of the Re publicans of his county, voting/or Nor ton, and turning the scale in his favor W all know the treachery of Dan Norton—his base betrayal of the Re publican party that gave him his placj Only one eote more and Andrew John son would stand to-day before the Ra ti a convicted criminal. One vote more I and Minnesota should have v •n hat vote. Had Morton S. Wilkin son filled Dan. Norton's seat on Satur day hut, the cheers of tLe loveis of lib erty would have rolhd from the leaob- scot to tho Rio -Grande! Today the sad hearts ot more than half tho nation aro almost despondent, aud tho mutter ed curses of an indignant people are heaped upon tho heads of their betray, crs. Republicans—sterling Republicans, and Union, ono and inseparable," give treachery its reward. Look well to your leaden and jour would-be leaders. We have been crying "Death to trai tors" ever since the fall of Sumpter, but the deadliest traitors we have to tear are traitor* in our own camps— captains, colonels and generals in our own armies. "Spot tho traitors," and be careful to make no moro mistakes. A few more Andrew Johnsons, a few more Nortons, Trumbulls, Fessendens aud Chases, and the Repub'ican party will fight its Waterloo, and with it will fall "The hopes and hearts of freemen every where." We wish that every Republican in the land could have listened to the eloquent anu uoblo Wilkinson, as he addressed the lute Republican State Convention in St. Paul. There was at least ono delegate there, Mr. G. D. George, who •nust have felt uncomfortable. Wilkin son in his most impressive manner con jured the Republicans of Minnesota to look well to their leaders aud make no more mistakes—as the Opera House was trembling to tho thundering ap plause of the assembled multitudo of sterling radicals, cheering the senti ment, "No more mistakes!" wo saw one delegate, sitting iu full view and directly in front of Mr. Wilkinson, face downward, like a criminal in the dock, and a flush of shame upon it, that told us plainder than words could tell, that "Treaohery hath its reward." Republicans, a great and vital con test is just before us we must go forth again to battle for "Union and Liber ty we must have leaders choose with care, "no more mistakes From corporal to the general commanding, be sure that your leaders are true. Choose sterling men for leaders in eVery department of your forces don't trust a "squad" in the hands of a cor poral who is tainted in the least with Chaseism or Johnsonism or "mania a" loaves and fishes. Let oor motto hence forward be "No more mistakes W A W I YOV DO W E N E A A N O E S 1 The Pioneer of Sunday, concludes a stunning article upon the question of admitting colored nnn to the Chicago Convention as delegates from Southern States, with the above sentence, and then relapses, evidently impressed with the idea that an unanswerable conun drum has been propounded. Do, when the black man comes to Chicago! Why ho will be admitted and welcomed—not because he is black—but because he is a man, with reasoning faculties, with an immortal soul, with more ability and brains than half of the writers that are continually abusing, a race because of an unwholesome and unjust prejudice. He will be admitted, because One Hundred and Forty Thousand of his color showed their devotion to our coun try, by enlisting in its service, uphold ing'our flag upon its battlefields,and yielding their life blood freely, in order that white men north might remain at home, out of danger and* unharmed, to crv out after the war closed that a black man "smells bad." Do with the black man He will be admitted, because in the States he represents, thousands of white men •stand aloof and refuse to participate in politics, decline to lift a finger to raise their country from its war-devastated condition, listen to Democratic counsels, to the treacherous voices of tire same men who in 1861, urged and drove the Southern States into secession, promis ing to assist them if war resulted, and alter seeing it fully initiated, developed their cowardly character by remaining North, and making fortunes as quarter masters on the frontier, or in Govern ment contracts. He will be admitted, because the Re publican party of the United States be lieve, as did our fathers in '76, "That all men are created equal," that the lessons of the war must be ac knowledged, and that man should meas ure his fellow man in some other way than by judging his ability by his col or, his hair or the length Of his heel. He will be admitted, Mr. Pioneer.

Various delegations arrived in a procession, headed by a brass band, and the famous old Wisconsin War Eagle Old Abe, and marched to the place of meeting, where three cheers were given for Logan, Fenton and J:ant, and three groans for the recreant senators, during which tho song of "Old Grimes is dead," was sung by the assembly. Nearly all the States are represented. Gov. Fairchild, of Wis.* was chosen temporary chairman, and welcomed to his seat with enthusiasm and applause, and addressed the convention, chosen as President, with a Vice Presi- Gen. John A. Login was then' den', and Secretary from each State. After some fitting remarks, received with the most enthusiastic and deafen ing cheers and stouts, Gen. Logan announced that Gen. Grant's father was present. Mr. Grant then came for ward and was heartily welcomed. A number ot resolutions were adopted, among them, one nominating Gen. Grant as President, and another as follows: Resolved, That soldier. and sailors re cognisei no difference between the native find adopted c.tizena, and .hey demand mat the government protect the* nataraY zed citizens abroad as well as those of ni ive birth A committee of nine was appointed to wait upon Gen. Grant with a sopy of tho resolutions, after which tl* contention adjourned.

We would party because it represents "Liberty state for their information, that a daily line of stages runs from St. Cloud west toFort Abercrombie,D. T.

Bishop Simpson was then called up on to offer prayer and complied in a very appropriate petition to the throne of grace, closing with the Lord's Prayer, in which the audience Joined. Gov.

We had hoped to present the full proceedings, with the nominations in this issue, but at this hour, Thursday, 2 p. M., we are without. the necessary information. E E O A I E S LONDON, May 18.—The news of the acquittal of President Johnson on the 11th article created a profound sensa tion. Most of the journals have edi torials thereon. The Times says the articles are most too vague for substan tial charges, but the vote corrects the fear of any party bias, and shows that the case was judged on its merits alone. The Telegraph says dignity and de corum havo marked the whole of the trial, and the non removal of the President is a most fitting close. Even the most ultra radicals will be com pelled to admit this at no distant day. ^-The New York Timet special cor respondence says jthat Chief Justice Chase has'placed, himself in the hands of Democrats, who are concocting measures to run him for President against General Grant —Buckingham was electoi .to day as U. S. Senator 'from Connecticut, to succeed Dixon, on the 4th of March next. Dixon was nominated and sup ported by the Democratic members of the Legislature. WASHINGTON, May 18 1868. Mr. Banks from the Foreign Com mittee in the House, reported a bill to appropriate 87,200,000 for the purchase of Alaska. Mr. Washburne presented a minority report declaring the country of no val ue, and that it was not expedient to make the appropriation. Mr. Stevens, of Pennsylvania, -offer ed a resolution^ requesting the Senate to furnish an official copy of the last two days' impeaohmont proceedings. An exciting debate ensued, and Mr. Stevens said there had been deep dam nation somewhere. Mr. Ross enquired if the Senators would perjure themselves. Mr. Stevens catt ho did not think it would hurt them much. After some moro sharp sparring the resolution was passed, and' tho House adjourned. It is said that a new party is to bo formed with Chsse as its leader and candidate for President. The Demo crats say, however, that while they are ready to give great praise to Chase and other Republicans for their, altitude during the impeachment trial, they aio not quite prepared to help them to of fice. The Democratic party never make such mistakes, as putting new converts, in places of trust.-«-up, O N N E A N W A S N E We bolievo that all the Republican papers of Minnesota, with tho excep tion of the St. Paul Press and Minne apolis Tribune—tho editors of neither of whioh belong to themselves—sustain Mr. Donnelly in his caustio reply to Washburne, though deprecating cer tain expressions used by him. We give the following extracts from prominent Republican journals, all of whioh are published in the other Con gressional District: Certain passages, it is true, too much resemble the common Briox Pomcroy style but otherwise, the speeoh of Donnelly is exaotly what we should ex pect in reply to the personal charges ol Washburne, and we see no need—ss sn exchange suggests, of sending south for Mornsaey to go to Washington to teach Donnelly manners. Whatever may be said-of certain passages, the speeoh proper of Donnelly is pithy and to the point, and it is no wonder the House was anxions to bear him out.— Winnebago Homestead. Mr. Congressmen Donnelly, of this State, is fighting a pack of aspirants for his seat. Among them is a Mr. Washburne, of Minneapolis, a member of* the same family that has been made illustrious by his three brothers, one of whom from Maine is, or was, famous by reason of being named Washburne, another of whom, from Wisconsin, is famous as having been a member of Congress .nd as the General who climb ed out of the back window of his office in Memphis in his shirt tail, while For rest was walking in at the front door, and the oldest and first ot the family is an old and garrulous member of Con gress who is famous as being from the same town in Illinois as Gen. Grant. Old Washburne has come out in a savage letter on Donnel ly, which calls him a Jesuit and bears other strong ear marks of having been written either at Minneapolis or some where nearer home than Washington. As Washburne's letter charges Don nelly with corruption, lying and a choice variety of small meannessess, it affords Ignatius a fine opportunity of ripping the old chap's long Congressional career, in which it is strange if he has not done some things that look suspi cious. We do not pretend to disguise our satisfaction that the distinguished Rep resentative from Galena did not escapo from the sound drubbing at the hands of his plucky young antagonist which the nature and extent of the provoca tion in one sense justified. Mr. Wash burne undertook to play the role of the bully—acting his part in the most in sulting manner, and treating his fellow member with a degree of coarseness and wanton falsehood utterably inexcusable any man occupying a seat in Con gress at the hands of the people. The attack was made, to be sure, outside of the halls of Congress, but it was none the less justifiable on that account and Mr. Donnelly conld not have done less out of regard to himself and his con stituents, than to resent the insult in a public manner. What he has render ed himself liable to censuro for consists in his descending to Washburne's dirty level, and thus disgracing not only him self is conducting the defense but to some extent including the body of which he is a member in the disgrace. Winona Republican ^The publication of the full details of the passage at arms between these two members does not fully confirm the un favorable impression as respects Mr Donnelly's speech which the meagre telegraphic report had created. Mr. Donnelly's vindication to his reputation from Washburne's aspersions was able and convincing, and if he had so faro controlled his passions as to have omit te certain exceptional passages where in he descends to vituperation and blackguardism unworthy of one of his position, he must have carried with him the sympathies of the unprejudic ed public. It may be alleged that Mr. Washburne charges were peculiarly aggravating and of a nature to have justified strong language, but a person who possesses the consciousness of right cannot afford to weaken his cause, by allowing his indignation to betray him into brutality. We doubt not Mr. Don nelly regrets his mistake, although the fact that the House permitted the speeoh to continue without interruption, shows that a state of feeling must have existed, as respects Washburne's caustic attack, which induced the extension of unusual latitude to bis antagonist in his 8 a a Republican. Mr. Donnelly was never more popu lar in this State than at present. The deserved drubbing which he lately gave E. B. Washburne will not decrease his great popularity. *Jr. Donnelly is sn intellectual giant whom Minnesota will not set aside at the bidding of the Washburne family, backed by the Press and its aatelites, or tho Copperhead crew that are now chuckling over the unfortunate quarrel which has sprung up among leading Republicans. The first dispatches, accompanied by the denunciations of enemies in regard to his late speech against Washburne, led us to suppose that he had commit! ted some unpardonable sin but the speech itself is the opposite of what it was described to be. There are one or two passages, it is true, that may be termed indiscreet but. the speech, as a whole, is an able vindication of his character, which has been wantonly as sailed by his antagonist. If the Northern district is wise, it will continue Mr. Donnelly in the posi uon which he has so ably and honors bly filled until he is called to take a higher seat.— Waseca News. Though living in the First District, we are only across the line, formerly lived in the Second, and engaged in a coutcst whero money was pitted against merit, and saw the latter win! We •l*/ 6 a nals duct to save his credit and that of their State. The Press labors with unblush ing seal to disgrace both its representa tive and Staje^JI/anJfcufo Union. Our first account of the Donnelly and W«ahburne affair came through Wash burae channels and were unfavorable to Mr. Donnelly. Tho later and fuller reports, while tbey do not relieve the subject.from its disgraceful features, serve to present in connection with Mr. Donnelly's attack upon Washburne the enormity of his provocation. Mr. Donnelly was truthful, if not po lite, in describing tbo Nashburnes a* chronio office beggars, and in denounc ing this partioular Washburne, he ol Galena, as a parasitio burden upon Gen Grant and was moderate in ndi «ule of the pretensions Of this Wash burno. If he used foul language and House long famed for rudeness both of speech and manner—we must remem ber that Mr. Donnelly would bo an ex ception among men if tho offensive meddling and subsequent slanderous attack of Washburne had not exoited him beyond prudent bounds. He has a hard figh't of it with his personal op ponents at home, and may be exonsed for fighting desperately when he is threatened to be assailed by the whole Washburne tribe. Mr. Donnellyfo,without dispute, the ablest political canvasser and the most popular man of his party in our State, yet a majority of the leaders of his par ty in and around St. Paul both hate and fear him. His ambition, though justi fied by his success before the people and the strong sold he has upon the voters of his party, is opposed to the sobemes and interest of a elique ot Re publican leaden whose present rallying cry is "Wsshburne for. Congress." H»d there been no such faotion, who can imagine tho seal with which the St. Paul iVew would have cudgeled with words the Galena dema gogue and appealed to Minnesotiaus, by their State pride, to resent with con tumelious irrecoacilement his atrocious slanders upon oar honored represents- tiy%T~Sed Winff Argus (Democratic.) We have heretofore refrained from expressing an opinion upon the embrog lioof Donnelly and Washburne. I will be recollected that while Mr. D. was East, laboring hard for the success of the Republican party in New Hamp shire and Connecticut, Mr. W. took ad vantage of the circumstance by writing and circulating, in Minnesota, a scurril ous letter, affecting the character of the former. It was doubtless designed to break down the character of Mr. Don nelly with a view of supplauting him in Congress, by a brother of Mr. W., who now lives at Minneapolis. I is natural that the greatest indignation should have been felt and manifested at this unjust and uncalled for attack. In due time, after Mr. Donnelly had returned to Washington, he adminis tered to his assailant a seething rebuke, and although some of the language em ployed was not strictly in keeping with the dignity of the place, yet if ever pointed and strong words were justified they certainly were in this case.—Free born Co. Standard. We close with a few extracts from the Eastern press: Mr. Washburne at last secured a hearing, and spoke with a subdued air and propriety that led everybody to doubt his identity.—National Intelli gencer. The readers can judge for themselves of the style of debate. I is only fair to Mr. Donnelly to say that while his language is almost inexcusable, yet his provocation was great. The statement made by Mr. Washburne as to his character is utterly and entirely false. —Philadelphia Telegraph. The recent debate in the House of Representatives between Messrs. Don nelly and Washburne, however viola tive of the proprieties of speech, was clearly provoked by Mr. Washburne.— He assailed Donnelly in a privato let ter, which afterwards came to the hands of Donnelly, and he, of course, felt bound to defend himself sgainst the gross imputations of Mr. Washburne, in the very forum in which they were made. Washburne attacked Don- nelly in a most bitter and cowardly manner, by mail, and much that he get in return from the man he so coarsely and cravenly assailed, was well merited. The country, indeed, owes Donnelly no small debt of gratitude for the very ef fectual manner in which he exposed the character of the man who claims to own Grant as a candidate for the Presidency, and whom Grant appears recognise as his keeper and owner. We give the above extracts ss infor mation tbat is due to the Republicans of this Congressional District quite as much as- to Mr. Donnelly. The S Paul Press and Minneapolis Tribune are adding to their vituperative denun ciations every condemnatory paragraph that can be found in any sheet in Illi nois or elsewhere controlled by Mr. Washburne. Thefirstreports of Mr. Donnelly's speech wero greatly mutila ted and the general sentiment as to the speech itself can bejudged from the extracts given above. a of a I a OF* pa 8 2 CO a E 0Q A OQ a 5 a S 3 a .S 6 «2 "8 A 8 CD E CO- S S *s-sa I A 4 .2 A s*§fi*g! 1 S ss- 11 i.
