calle 1 first on Collector Sniythe, and
then on himself,, to secure his co-operation
in a plan to buy the Presidents
ncqnital. Collector Smylhc replied
lio should consult Thurlow. AVced.
AVithin the same hour Gen. 'Adams and
Collector Sniythe consulted Thurlow
AVecd, in manner nnd form following.
We copy Weed's testimony : "A Jams
proposed, for a certain "stun of money,
to get the votes of certain Senators
against conviction." Mr. Weed "un
derstood an arrangement was to bo
made for four votes." Mr. Weed
modestly fissures us "that ho never
had no faith in it" and "advised
against 5t" and "did not like the
looks of it in any way" and "thought
it best not to have anything' to do
with it" but that "the subject was
often talked about In New-York"
and the 'ucst person who talked with
liim about it were Weljster, Wooley,
and Slihlanhookjjivhq came to his

for which he is so noted n.s a business
man, says ' that at' tn is 'miJfcting "there
was, ajjposilion loiado lor vole ami

dollars for three votes.". As this was
ttoothVa wecfe twi Weed's interview
with Smythe and Adams, it appears
that his) disinclination, to "have any
thing to aoWith ir was virtue ot an
ensv errade. and that his .advice to

Webster, another of the trio who takes
part iu the interview at which rates
ami , terms aro stated x: "three
.Senators for ?;0,0Q0" is a confiden
tial friend of Secretary Seward and
Mr. .Weed, was in the Statu .De
partment, aud Unow Deputy Survey-i.
or in the Custoin-1 louse. Mr. Sher
idan Shook is Collector of Internal
Revenue of the best district iu the
Uni'ed Slates, ami is reputed to have
made an enormous fortune in the ser
vice of his country in this capacity.
Wooley , reached Washington ; on.
Wednesday, May C, as he had prom
ised tho 1 'resident's Secretary, and
on tho same day telegraphed the same
to Sheridan Shook, as follows ; "My
business is adjusted ; Place 10 to my
credit with (JillLs, Harney &, Co., I'o.
2 1 Drood-st. Answer." Ten thous
and dollars were placed to Wooley'a
account with (jillis, Harney & Co.
(though Shook denies that ho placed
it there), which Wooley drew at Hash
ing (the Bankers haviug an office in
both cities) in ten bills ot ?1,XKJ each.
Tho same niidit. Webster, W'ooley's
associate, telegraphed to Shook : "All
right; your answer has been received."
Webster, on tho same day, telegraphs
from Washington to Thurlow Weed,
as follows
"Ik wilt do it. Telegraph Hugh
Hastings to come here right away.
JO. D. Weiistkk, Willard s."
Mr. Weed testifies that he did not
know who "lie" was , nor what it was
promised "he" would do, but he knew
it related to impeachment, and he
telegraphed to J tastings that he was
wanted in Washington. On May
7 Wooley telegraphed from Washing-
on to Weed in JNew-i ork : " lien
will the Albany party "he on hand for
business ?"Mr. Weed states that the
Albany party referred to in this tele
gram was tho notorious Hugh J
Hastings referred to in the previous
telegram, aud thatthe business "related
to impeachment." On May 8, Wooley
at Washington telegraphs to Shook in
New-York to "tjo to tlie Astor House
and get fiojn our friend (Weed) an
answer to my dispatch to him yester
day." And on the same day Webster
telegraphs to Shook to "see Weed
immediately and ascertain, if that letter
has been delivered ; if not, have it
done at once." Mr. Weed seems to
have been too wary to trust the tele
graphic wires with his sentiments,
pi'ctci'ing to be seen at the Astor House.
Shook saw Mr. Weed at the Astor
House, as requested. Hastings soon
alter came down, anil alter seeing
Weed went, on rather reluctantly to
Washington, stayed there two or three
days, returned, and again "saw W eed
i lie ellectol Hastings s appearance
in Washington, on May 10, is shown
in a telegram liom oojey, on May
1 1 , to one Hurt in Cincinnati "Presi
dent's stock above par" and another
of the same date to one Ives in Jsew-
York "Impeachment gone higher
than a kite." But on the 12th
Woolov, who had already drawn $10,
000, telegraphs to Sheridan Shook

telegram and denies that ho knows
what it meant, yet on the same day

with Gillis, llarncV oc Co., and
drawn from them by Wooley nt Wash
ington. On the same 12th ot May
(the day set by the Senate for tho vote
of impeachment ,) Wooley also received
$5,001) for Impeachment purposes from
P. Clinch, at Cincinnati, as appears
by a telegram saying: "I paid your
draft how is "Andy'.'" Twenty thou
sand. dollars is thus shown to have
gone into Woolcy's possession as a bri
bery fund on the day when .Grimes,
Trumbull and Fessenden were first
publicly known to havo decided, to
vote against conviction, and wheu the
ticstion of acquittal was narrowed
down to ono or two Senators. The
vote, however, was postponed from the
12th to the IGth. On tho '13th a
screw is loose . somewhere, vt ooiey,
w J. B. Crai, telegraphs to Sheridan
Shook:' :"Conicon by first train; wry
important. ' Lest-this should- not
reach him nt his place of business, an
other was sent to Shook at tho Fifth
Avenue Hotel, as follows: ""iou'rimst
ooh'ie on hero and untangle a snarl ''be
tween friends at once." The Hon". S.
S. Cox nominee as Minister to i Aus
tria, at the same time telegraphed ts
Thurlow Weed: "If you can't come
over, ?end Slrefidrtn -'Shook. 7 Impor
tant:" Shook arrived in Washington
on the 15th, the day before the' vote,
to carry' as he says, 200 Regalia cigars;
and on the 16th, at 9:30 ni m., four
hours before tlie . Iteuators .knew now
the vote would stand, Wooley tele
graphs to "II; J. Hastings" (the'spccial

did not know the result until the vote
was taken, " So satisfied was ho of the
result that nt 8 o'clock on the same
morning he had telegraphed to Hurt:
"Wliero is Wash ? 1 will dine with
Hancock to-night, and beat Fiflh-nve,

: itaneocR is1 the second Washington
whom Andrew Johnson siidisinterest-
edly commends. That WOofey had ao
cess to all the tneans For reaching Sen
ators will be seert from the fact that
the dinners he gave at Welcker's were
attended by B, S. Cox, W. M. Evai ts,
W. 8. Uroesbeek, Col. Cooper (the
President's 'private Secretary,) nnd the
like. Tho report states that Wooley
accounted for the $20,000 he received
by four 'talsehdods,' viz: ; liy saying,
lint, that ho expended it in his pri
vate business; second, that he had paid
it out on his client's business; third,
that he had sent it in a cheek to Cin
cinnati, forgetting that this would
have left the bills lie received still on
his person; and fourth, that ho had
given it to Shook to keen, which Shook
Ionics. 1' many, lie reltises altogether
to state what ho did with it or to whom
ho paid it.' We see no sufficient reason
for assuming that Wrooley has cheated
his confederates who paid him the mo
nffy, or that he did not actually use it
for the pnrposo intended. The only
alternative conclusion from the Mana
ger's Report is that somebody has boon
lionght. We care nothing tor Mr.
Weed's statement that Senators whom
they expected to buy voted for convie
tion. His singularly defective memo'
ry would bo likely to screen any Seir
utor whom ho had nought. JJosidcs,
tho party may very easily havestarted
up game where they did not expect it.
1 lie country has reason to believe,
however, that Andrew Johnson, whom
a single shot from one traitor placed
in the Presidential chair, remains there
by tho single vote of another. Elected
by assassination and confirmed by brt

General Grant having been nomina
ted ns the Republican candiduto for
tho Presidency the Democratic papera
call upon him to resign his oilico of
gencral-m-clnef ot the army pending
the canvass. Grant went into tno
war a very poor num. His pecuniary
receipts during tho contest other than
his salary, and what gdts were be
stowed upon him by the people of cer
tain , loyal cities liko Philadelphia,
were nothing. He had 110 fit con
tracts out of which to make money.
He was too busy with his tremendous
task of crushing the rebellion to be
able to attend to his private fortune.
At the termination of the war a grate
ful country honored him with the
high grade and emoluments of general
and tho ollicc of chief command in tho
army. There can be no doubt that ho
is the fittest man in tho natiou for
such a position.
The Democrats nsk him to punish
himself with a deprivation of ofliuial
emoluments and to live on expecta
tions for nearly a year, at a time
when, ns a candidate "for tho Presiden
cy, his personal expense must, of ne
cessity, be much more than usual.
Did he not honorably win his grade?
Did ho not render illustrious services
for the honors awarded to him ? Has
he not faithfully performed tho duties
of his office ? Is tho country likely
to be benefitted by loosing him from
that othee during a period when he' is
not wanted for any other? . Is it not
customary in case of promotion for tho
successful party merely to givo up
the ono oilico iu time to occupy the
other -
Judge Woodward was a member of
tho Bench of the Supreme Court of
Pennsylvania during tho whole of the
excited canvass which he ran as a Dem
ocratio candidate for Governor, lie
never resigned nor did his term ex
pire for fceveral years after his defeat,
General McClollan was a Major Gen
eral in tho regular army while he was
the Democratic enmudato for. tho
Presidency... . He hold no command
and was out of service. . The govern
ment had lost confidence in him, yet
he .held on to Office, and did not re
sign it until the re-electiou of.Lirtr
coin -showed-Mm that there was no
ohance of his getting into scrvico again
Wo might cite many such cases. . But
it is not 'necessary.. Tho. country docs
not want General Grant to resign. It

well deserves, the oflioo . liO; holds.

But Gen. Pembertori reflected a lit

to his mind, he, too, made haste - to

after the buttle of Spottsylvania Court

or dispatch in theso tolerably I clear

just for all tlio world like she thought
it was coming, tlmt I was going to

it, I laid my hand softly on her benrl-1'
