Mr. Curtis opened with an elaborate argument in favor of the President, utterly refuting the posi tions of the impeachers. His speech oc cupied Thursday's and a part of Friday's sessions. Adjutant General Thomas was then called to the witness stand, anti he detailed the conversations between the President and himself in regard to the dri interim appointment. He testi fied that the President did not advise him, to take possession of the office by force—but thst It was the President's design thus to get the cage helot e the Su preme Court. It will be remembered that Gen. Thomas Yids arrested by order of Stanton .\fte•r plying bail for his appearance, Thomas agaln / called at the War Office, and this IS what transpired, as detailed by Thomas: Witness—Mr. Stanton turned to me, and got talking in a very familiar man ner with rue; I said, "The next time you have me arrested please don't do it before I get something to eat." [Laughter.] I have had nothing to eat or drink to-day. (Continued laughter.] He put his arm around my DEO!, as he used to do, in a familiar manner, and ran his hand through my hair, and turned around to General Schriver and said: "Schriver, have you got a bottle here? Bring it out." [Roars of laughter.] Sehriyer unlocked his desk and took out a small vial; the Secretary then proposed we should have a spoonful of whisky; I said I would like a little; General ikhrlver poured it out into a tumbler and divided it equally. He took the glass up this way (indicatingi and meas ured them with his eye; presently a messenger came in with, a full bottle of whisky, and the cork was dray; n and he and I took a drink together. Q. Was that all the force exhibited that day? A. That was all. Q. Have you at any time attempted to use force to get into that office? A. At no time. On Saturday, General Sherman was called to the stand. The purport of the President's consultations with him abon the removal of Stanton was asked. The expected testimony threw the impeach ers Into great alarm. Butler at once Jumped up and objected to its admission. The Chief Justice decided that the testi mony was admissible. The impeachers became furious, conscious that the testi• mony would greatly damage their ease. l i The question was left to the Senate, and they decided against the Chief Justice, by a small majority. The President's I counsel made another attempt to get in the testimony, and were again over-ruled by a vote of the Senate. On Monday morning, a debate sprung up en the question to allow all the man agers to speak, Stevens and Logan wanting a chance to vent their spite against the President before the Court. After a warm debate, it was tabled, by a vote of 38 to 10, much to the di4appiont- ment of the impeachers. Gen. Sherman was recalled, and notwithstanding the continued opposition of the managers, a portion of the conversation between the President and himself in regard to the removal of Stanton was admitted, either through the changed form in which the questions were propounde4, or because the Senate had come to see the inequitable character of its rulings' ea Saturday, and feared an liiglivorable Impression ou the public mind in conse quence. The General (by a vote of 28 to 25) was allowed to proceed—uud he testi fled as follows : Gen,. Sherman.—The President told me that the relations between him and Mr. Stanton, and between Mr. Stanton and the other members of the Cabinet, were such that he could not, under las consti tutional obligations, continue Mr. Stan ton in office; that he had the right to make the appointment of Secretary ad hi:trim, and wanted to have the Mike ad• ministered for the good of the army and the country; the President did not then say that he desired to test the law ; he (Gen Sherman) then asked the Presi dent why he dill not get a lawyer to take the office, and not bring him, an officer of the army, into the controversy ; the President replied that could not be done now, but if the case was brought into the courts it would not stand half au hour. Mr. Stanbery.—What took place at the second interview? Butler objected, but after a brief dis cussion, the witness was allowed to go General Sherman.—The first day the President offered me the appointment ad interim he confined himself to very general terms, and I gave him no answer. It was at the eeeoud interview that he made the point I have stated. He spoke of the act known ae the tenure-of-office art, and Bahl If a case under it was brought properly before the Supreme Court it would not stand a half hour. I stated that if Mr. Stan on would retire quietly, I would, although it was against my wishes, my interests and my duty, ac cept the ad interim appointment. I spoke of the probability of force being required, and expressed a doubt as to whether Mr. Stanton would give up. The President said, "oh yes, he will give up; all you have to do is to present this order; know him better than you do, he is cow ardly." [Laughter.] Witness gave the President no definite answer then, but gave him hie answer afterwards in writ ing, and if the Senate wanted his opinion he thought that letter had better be pro duced and offered in evidence than this parole- testimony. His lemons for de clining the appointment were mostly of a personal nature. Senator Henderson propounded the In terrogatory, "Did the President on the occasion alluded to express to you his positive intention to remove Mr. Stan ton from office Answer.—lf by removal is meant re moval by force, he made no such inti mation to me, but said that he would never hold any further intercourse with Mr. Stanton. Q. by Mr. Howard.—You spoke of force being mentioned. What did the Presi dent say about It? A.—l suggested that Mr. Stanton might not give ,up peaceably. He saki tbere was nausea considering that ques lion. Senator Howard.—lit that a full an swer to the question? Witness.-1 think it b. On Tuesday, Mr. Svarta stated that Mr. Stanbery was prevenkl by illness from attending, but hoped to be present next day. He therefore asked that the Court adjourn over to Wednesday, and the request wu granted The trial was resumed on Wednesday, though Mr. Stanbery was still ill. Mr. Everts took up the day in introducing docnmentary evidence. —The Radicals have the votes to con vict the President, but the testimony is with him, and will forever vindicate his honesty and patriothitu. What the Sen ate's verdict wilt be, no one can tell. Opinions vary.

STAIILS, ESQ.—Dear Sir :—Last night was quite a busy time for Att ains county In the Legislature. No 'eve than nine hills were passed relating to your county. One or these relates to the taxation of lands of 110'40119 residing In one school district annexed to another school die t: Mt, In the county of Adams, for school purposes. Another authorizes the School Direc tors of lienallen township to levy gild collect a tax for the purpose Of paying the amount required to procure volun teers, Are. Another for Butler township, of the same character, autborizlng the levying and collecting of taxes to pay back dehte contracted for that purpose during the war. Another granting a pension to Henry Little, a soldier of the mar of 151, from your county. A ko a similar bill for John L. Burns Also an act to extend the time for the payment of the enrollment tax on an act Incorporating the Battle Douse and itdiu• eral Watering Place Company. Also an act to repeal the proviso in the first section of the supplement to an act authorizing the School Directors of Lat imore township, your county, to levy a tax and Issue bonds to pay money raised to_ pay volunteers, approved April 12, 1867. Besides these, a few days ago, the fol lowing additional bills were passed : An set to extend the time for the pay ment of the enrollment tax on the Get tysburg and Chambersbwrg Railroad Company. Also a similar act in relation to the Ailains County So!client' Monument As sociation. Another, at a blunter character, for the Adams County Railroad Company. - Another for the transfer of all right, tale and care of the Soldiers' National Cemetery at Gettysburg to the care of the General Government. And another to incorporate the Mount Rock and Hanover Turnpike Company. Had the Legislature adjourned on the 9th, as at first contemplated, you will see, all these bills would have failed to be come laws, for no other reason than that your Senator was too lazy or indifferent in bringing them up sooner. Whether they are good and proper, you and the people whom they will affect, can tell better than I. They were all intro duced by your Senator—l have been so informed. I have made some inquiries as to the fate of the Cumberland township 1)111, your county. As far as I have been able to ascertain, your Senator introduced a bill in the Senate, making it the duty of the proper authorities of the township to levy and collect a tax to pay the expen4es incurred during the war for the purcha sing of volunteers, dm. In this shape It passed the Senate and was sent over to the House. Before it was reached there, however, and acted on, your Senator had It re-called by resolution. Then he changed it so as to leave it to a vote of the. people of the township, and had it passed by the Senate In that shape. When it came to the House, it was taken up and passed, and sent to the Governor for his name. Again your Senator had it re-called from the Governor, and it now sleeps In his hands, fur this year at all events, and as far as he is concerned, forever. So much for legislation as re gat ds your county. You will remember, so far as relates to the declaration that your Senator had this bill re-called from the Governor, I have it only front hear say, but from 'a good source. If this should not be correct, of coujse the citi zens of the township will soon be ap prized of the error, in the shape of a no tice from the prerper authority for the holding oian election. The appropriation bill is now a law, and is said to be quite a big thing. Most of the members and employees of the Legislature have their shares of it al ready. For the last two or three days laws were made as fast as If done by Nome ma chinery. Quite a controversy is now going on between the Geary organ, the State Guard, and the Speaker of the House, concerning passing laws by their titles merely. The State Guard makes such charges almost daily, whilst the Speaker denies it. But I think, were the matter properly sifted, the State Guard would be pretty nearly right. I would venture something on it, at all events. The present Legislature has been,with iu a few days, as long in session as its immediate predecessor, and passed about the same cumber of laws, I see some papers are rather inclined to eulogise the present session. I feel different, and think after its proceedings are once fully scanned, the people in general will agree with me. A. L. THE MICHIGAN VERDICT ON NUE' PMAGM. Every :Northern State, radical or coo -1 narrative, to whom the question of negro suffrage has been kobmitted, has over whelmingly rejected it, but the Mich igen election, on Monday last, on the adoption of a new constitution, is the most signifi cant and deep-toned reprobation of this policy that has yet been uttered. In this stanch Radical State the opportunity afforded by the formation of a new con stitution was availed of by the leaders of the Radical party to compel the people to endorse such suffrage by making it a part of the constitution, and thus leaving them no alteruative but to adopt it or lota all the benefits of an instrument whit* le said to have been otherwise very desirable for some great reforms introduced into it, and other advantages for local purposes. But the people of Michigan did not hesitate a moment in maklog their choice, and by a large ma jority gave up the constitution, from which they had expected such benefits, rather t non perm t negro suffrage in Mich igan, although there are only a very few colored men in that State. Tice effron tery shown by their leaders in putting this plank in the constitution, not vouch safing honestly to submit it in a separate article, was very emphatically rebuked by the people. Their rejection of the new oonstitsition, notwithstanding the ex pense and trouble inourred in the reviakin of the organic law, indicates how deter mined they are not, to aubmit to that which their representatives so readily eu force elsewhere—in the District of Col umbia and the whole South—by whole sale, while even in the infinitesimal dose it la emphatically refused at home.—Sun.

AV Vat be la abatil►• theat• En E=IMI My DEAR FRIEND PITAIMIL:—.I have made up my mind several times hi write you on the ant4ect of "ourselves," but thus far something has always interfered when I came to this "sticking place." have this morning resolved to "report progress" Is my observations on the state of our atmosphere—natural, com mercial, political. We have had some delightful Wetter lately, so called by the good people here who don't know any' Vetter. We; of course, who have "seen the world" and have a very vivid recollection of having spent sonic time in Gettysburg, where the s of the sun do sometimes reach God's footstool through a perfectly transparent medium, have many a laugh in our sleeve at their child-like simplicity. We have had a long and hard winter and have pawed through many dark, lowering days since you heard front me last, but have sur vived as the monuments of "patience un der tribulation," "perseverance in well doing" and the other esxi - Vial coutlition of protracted existence. A. general and increasing trail hasgone up from this place ever since my advent that "business is dull" and "times are hard." I suppose I must believe there is something real in it, and join the chorus. The "works," although they send forth a vast deal of smoke, yet are I,n somewhat of a feverish state. The ul cers, created by the "strike" last year, have not yet healed up. The least dis turbance produces inflammation. Labor and capital, like ancient Rome and Car thage, are jealous of and hold each other at arm's length. The victory here will be reversed. The brawny sinews and tried muscle of the Roman soldier must yield to the soft luxury, the elegant idle ness, of Carthagenian capital. - The - moulders, puddiers, Sze., who have Limb lies and can't afford to stop making money for their support, must yield to their millionaire employers, who can. The proper remedy for the grievances of the workingmen is in the third aspect of our atmosphere which I mentieued— that is, the political. And here I cannot help but remark that the prospect is brighter. There are so many burdens heaped on the back of the Republican panty that few have the courage to carry all. Some are opposed to this act of the leaders and some to that. It was under an organized opposition of this kind that we have a Democratic Mayor. In regard to impeachment, so far as I am able to Judge, and my associations are princi pally with Republicans, it has few active supporters. A few are actively opposed to It. The majority seem to be indiffer ent altogether. They look on It as a party dodge, and justify it in their own minds on no other ground. They take no interest whateverilln it, believing that if Johnson is convicted It will be because two-thirds of the Senate made up their minds to do it beforehand, and inde pendent of any testimony which has been given on the trial. This is no imaginary sentiment. I have heard it from the lips of men who are going to vote for Grant, and who swallow the Reconstruction hash wholesale, without the least twinge at the material of which It Is made. As to Stanton, take away those whom he has made rich by his favors, and there can hardly he found here a corporal's guard who maintain, that any manliness or honor enters into his comporition. Ile is looked upon as holding oli to the position for no other purpose but mischief ; and with reason, for he certainly could not and has net accomplished anything etse. But I did not sit down to tell you what you know already, but what you don't know, and never would know but that I told you, and yet something you would be inter ested in. The \'ashoe affair Is finally ended. You remember who he is—the negro who made application to be ad mitted to the Bar of our Court. It was argued some time ago, quite briskly and earnestly, both by the discriminators and non-discriminators. The parties, however, In this case were just changed. The laerriocrats maintained that as he had not the qualifications while men were required to have to be admitted, he should not be admitted merely because he was a negro In other words, they were opposed to discrimination against the white race. On the other hand, the Radicals argued that the objections were merely technical, such as were adopted by the court, and should in this case be set aside. In other words, were in favor of discrimination. The matter received an effectual quietus by the decision of the court, a short time ago. The opinion of the court was delivered by Judge Stowe, and was to the effect that the ap plicant did not comply with the rules of court, and as there was no sufficient ground shown for a suspension of the rule, he could not be admitted. Judge Mellon, quite unexpectedly to everybody, (because he was looked upon as a Radi cal,) delivered an opinion of his own, in which he met the question of color fairly and squarely. He said that the marks of distinction which "God had put upon them at first, or nature afterwards, were not to be disregarded." That this was A white man's government , mid it was not right to violate the common instincts of humanity by associating the two races in so intimate a relation. He favored colonization of the negroes in some Ter ritory or State, where they could fill all the offices and white men could not. So we are not to have colored attorneys at our bar for some time yet, at least. noticed in the COMPILER this spring so many personal property advertise ments and generally the parties "intend ed to quit farming." I counted in one issue I think about thirty. Now why is this? Ifas farming become such a poor business—or have the old Camera all be come rich ? It really appears to me that it is the only business that Is not over stocked. Adams county damages have not come yet. "You asked for a fish, they have given you a stone." It is a lottery ; if you don't draw a prize, you will get a ticket fur the riett lottery, which will never be drawn. Adams county drew the ticket. But I have tuttd more than I lutentleci So once again, good bye Yours, -. TERRIBLE RAILROAD DISASTER.—A most terrible disaster occurred on the Now York and Brio Railroad, 10 miles west of Port Jervis, on Wednesday morn ing. By the breaking of a rail, four passenger ears were thrown down an embankment 100 feet high, killing 20 persons and wounding 50 more. Seven were burnt to death.

The results-ei the clot-- U=ol'st held in Connecticut, Itllehigat, Ohio, lowa and Kansas show that the people fully appreciate the present terri ble crisis In our country's history. It Is seldom, indeed, that so many elections, occurring an the same day, lu different States and widely separated cities and towns, all show victories - rosti-eains for one party. The causes which produce such a result must not only be extraor dinary; they must - also be of universal -application. Never did any party put forth greater exertions to carry an election than did the Radical party to redeem Connecticut Congress abolished the tax on manufac tures as a bribe to New England; the lit tle Nutmeg State was overrun by Radical orators; a Radical General displayed his epaulettes on every stump, and Radical Congressmen howled themselves hoarse in every school house; Radical office holders were bled most freely, all over the country, and greenbacks were scat tered like leaves In atumn; every fair and unfair device that could be devised was resorted to in order that the little State of Connecticut might be returned to the Radical fold—but it was all in vain. General Grant was put forward as the rallying figure, and it was formally an nounced that this election was to he ta ken as a test of his popularity. As such we, therefore, accept it. In Connecticut Grant, as the Radical candidate for Pres ident, has been overwhelmingly defeated. The Democratic majority of last year has been largely increased, and it Is now sure that against Grata the Democratic candidate for President will sweep a large majority of the Northern States. The gains in New Hampshire, the large majority in Connecticut, the unbroken tide of Democratic victories at nearly every municipal election which has been held this spring, all tell the same story. Hadn't the Radicals better take some other candidate, since it is sure that Grant will be defeated?—Lattensfer Lhfcl ligcncer. THE EMELT IN CONNECTICTT The Radical press claims as consolation in the late struggle In Connecticut that their party has retained the ascendancy which It before haii in the Legislature, thus having ',nits power the selection of a U. S. Senator as the successor of the present conservative Senator from Con necticut, Mr. Dixon. The explanation of a result, which seems surprising in view of the election of a Democratic Governor, with an increased conservative majority in the popular vote, Is a "rotten borough" system created by the consti tution of Connecticut lu ISIS, by which each town then incorporated was allowed two representatives In the lower house of the Legislature, and by subsequent provision each new town Incorporated was to have one. Towns In the State which have not increased at all retain their full representation, while towns of forty and fifty thousand inhabitants, like New Haven and Hartford, and where, besides, the intelligence, learn ing and commercial enterprise of the State predominate, have no additional representation. One hundred and fifty voters In the small town of Union have a representation equal to nine thousand voters in New Haven; and the little town of Prospect, with less than three hundred voters, has one representative, while Bridgeport, incorporated since ISM, with 3,000 voters, has no more These are a few Instances of the workings of a system which has been kept up by the Republicans, who have long had con trol of the Legislature, an amendment of the constitution requiring a majority in that body the first year and two-thirds the second year. —Sun. "ON THE WHOLE, SATISFACrrORY."- "Our special telegraphic correspondence this morning presents a very full view of the election fields of yesterday and the day before. It Is oa the whole, sat isfactory."—Furne,y's Press, April 8. —And the Philadelphia Evening lkr old also expresses itself satisfied in the following manner: Clad to hear It. Let us see whence the Press derives its satisfaction. The Democrats have carried Connecticut by a largely Increased majority. Michigan has declared agait.st the hitherto pet measure of the Radicals— negro suffrage—by from 30,000 to 35,000 majority. Cincinnati has gone partially Demo cratic at least. Last year the Radical majority in that city was nearly 5,000 Sandusky has given 300 Democratic majority. 44vausvilie, Ind., has gone Democrat- Ic—lirst time In many years. Milwaukee gives 2,500 Democratic ma jority ; gain of 1,000. La Crosse has sided with the Democ racy by a majority of 100. St. Louis, for almost the first time in its history, has given a Democratic majori ty. Leavenworth, Kansas, elected Moor head, Mayor, by a majority of from 400 to 60(1. We might multiply these sueeesses al most indefinitely, but fear that the nerves of our neighbor of the Press would not be equal to the announce ment. The result would be too gratify ing. If the editor of the Press considers these small affairs so "satisfactory," what an amount of pleasure will he en joy next fall when State after State shall pronounce against his party 9 KNOW NOTHING FANATICISM TO BE El=ll The Radhails of this State are clearing the way for a revival of the devilish Know Nothing frenzy that swept over the country a few years ago.

Baugher, D. 0,, Pre ,o dent of Pennsylvania College, which oc curred about 7 o'clock on Tuesday even- Dr. Baugher was in ill health for a number of years, at times sensing se verely. Indeed, we nut unfrequently heard the fear expressed that he would be compelled to resign the Presidency In consequence. However, po.wessed as he aas of buoyant spirits, he labored on in ills arduous position, until last week, when he took a severe cold, which set tled in his throat and chest. At first nothing serious In the symptons was ob served, but on Monday there was an alarming change. He grew rapidly worse, and on Tuesday breathed his last. His connection with the College dated from Its organization, in 13.32. Re was first Professor of Creek and Belles Let tree, and succeeded to the Presidency upon the resignation of Rev. Dr. Krauth, in 18W, wo believe. During all that time he held position among the leading educators of the country, as well as the ablebt divines iu the Lutheran Church. With much of the positive In his nature were blended fine social qualities, en dearing him to a wide circle of friends, who, with the general publie,wiii sincere ly lament his death.

The New Railroad Project. —An air line Railroad from Philadelphia to Get tysburg la talked of, in connection with the contemplated Hanover Junction and Peachbottom Railroad. To aiicomplish this it is only necessary to oonstruot the 44 miles between Oxford, in Chevter county, and Hanover Junction. The project, we are glad to notice, Is awaken ing considerable attention. The Railroad and Alining Regoger predicts that "the Gettysburg Railroad will not stop at Gettysburg," nor "the Lltilestown Railroad at Littlestown ;" andthe Wilmington (Del.) Commercial, In a long article on the subject, says : " We have spoken of the probable ex tension of the Gettysburg road West. This is merely a question of time, as a practicable route for such extension, known as the Southern Pennsylvania Railroad, has already been surveyed, by which a shorter route West can be had than now exists. Such extension could make connection at Cumberland with the Baltimore & Ohio Road; and by means of the Pittsburg & Counellsvilie road with Pittsburg, and the roads centering there. Either of these routes would give the West , access ttk tl4Swaier by a route ilfty bibles shorter than any now in ex istence. By an extension directly West ward, from Gettysburg to Belle Aire, Ohio, on the Ohio River, a few miles below Wheeling, a direct connection with the Central Ohio Railroad could be made, and a Western route, thirty miles shorter yet, made, and almost as direct as any so-called air-line in the whole coun try."

[April 17. It PARTIF.S IN Lotu,lANA.—The Harris burg Stale Guard says a fierce conflict for political mastery is now going on in Louisiana between the regular Congo negroes and these who have a mixture of white blood In their veins. It says there are three diatiuot parties down there, the white man's party, the quad roon party, and tire slime pure Guinea nigger party. With such a state of af fairs, our Radical cotemporary thinks the political future of the Pelican State is not at all cheering. How can anything else except disaster result front such a condition of affairs GEN. MEADE has reproved Lieut. Julmaon, who arrested Judge Pope, of Alabama, for not putting negroes on his junes. Monde declares that the object of his order was to remove color-dis tinction in juries, not commanding that all juries should in part be composed of negroes. The litarchamber scamps have heard from Connecticut and Michigan, and see a necessity fur "drawing it a lit tle mild" hereafter.
