MEN MBE TESTlMONY.—Secretary Stan ton, in. his testimony before the im peachment committee, thus refers to one:of the "high crimes and misde meanors" upon which President John son was impeached. • Q. Did any of thosdabinot express a doubt of the power of the Executive branch of the Government to recog nize the State governments which had been in rebellion . without the aid of Congress? A. None whatever; I had myself entertained no doubt of the au thority of the President to take meas ures for the organization of the rebel States on the plan proposed during the vacation of Congress, and agreed in the plan specified in the proclamation in the case of North Carolina. 'GEN. GRANT EOR PRESIDENT.—There appears to be a fixed determination on the part of many Republicans, to put General Grant io,nominatien for the next Presid4t. \there is.ohoelass of Republicao whostrOniiOtislY-,oppose lfis,nc?mination—and theYarolho more extreme men of the ' 'party, and the same men , who epposed,t i he. nomina- Lien of President The midi date of tho Radical Republicans for President is Judge Chase, while the candidate of tho Consorvativo Repub licans is General Grant. The senti ments of Judge Chase aro well known— ho is as Radical as the most•radical of the party; while the opinions of Gen eral Grant aro not known, to any defi nite extent. As for' the latter, if wo can place any reliance on reported in• terviows, be is just as much a, Conser vative Democrat as ho is a Conserva tive Republican. But take up his tes timony before the Judiciary Impeach ment.Committeo,.and wo find his posi tion nearer than we have.it from any other Source. In his testimony he ad vanced views 'which would Make it hp• pear,fts, if hoWanttid to abandon the right to punish the military leaders of the Rebellion, while President Johnson, on the Other hand, *as eager for their punishment. ,114 admirers of ,General Grant can reconcile that state ment, and .in the same breath crimi, nate President Johnson, we cannot understand ; Johnson; it has b'eeU re peatedly said;htifi gone back on his:as- , sertions, that "traitors should bo pun ished," , and "treason must bo made odious," but now wo find the very men who were loudest ,in their cries against Johnson are new loudest in their appeals in aid of Grant, who from the very beginning until now, has been opposed to the punishment of the leaders of the rebellion. Our 'own ,ptivato opinion is that General Grant not only doer not seek, but will not have the position of Pres• ident, if it is offered to him at the Re: publican nominating Convention. He has now a position as General-in-Chief of the armies, from which the people can not well spare , him, for• services rendered in the past. his reticence is Worrying the party Politicians, but his silence can not be considered as con senting to the nomination from any party, for if it can be considered as consenting to ono party it can also be considered asconoontios to the other piirty. We take it; however, that his name is being used by the politicians of the Republican party for the effect that it may have in rallying the party until some ono more acceptabli: may be nominated.. We look at it in the light of a more party dodge and not as expressing the real, honest sentiments of .the party; and wo predict that if any can be prevailed upon to build high hopes of the nomination of Gen eral Grant, as a 'Republican candidate, they will be doomed to disappoint ment. THE BA NKR UP,l' LAW ENDED.-All who contemplate availing themselves of the benefits of the Bankrupt Law must do so previous toMareh 2d, 1868, as the fifty per cent. clause takes effect on, that . day. There aro only about one hundred and fifteen days left. All claims against a bankrupt who applies after next March will, as a matter of •course, be proyon. Section, 33 of the law, in relation to the, fifty per cent., is as follows:: "And in all proceedings in bankruptcy; commenced after ono year from the time' this act 'shall go into operation, no discharge shall be granteAL to a debtor s whose assets does not pay fifty per ,cent. of the claims against his estate, unless the assent, in writing, of a majoritY_ in number and value of his creditors, who have, proved their claims, is filed in the ease, at or before the time of application for dis charge." m.A.n unparalleled amount Of deS titution and suffering exists in Rich mond. Very lately a largo number of persons have been discharged from the workshops. On all• sides is seen the evidence of hard times, and worse is expected, and this winter may present to the world the spectacle of an! indus• trious people, living upon 'the most productive soil in the world, abounding in minerals of all kinds, literally star= ving—starving for the want of bread. —Pittsburg Commercial. And the poor people of the North taxed to deathlhat; the negroes of the South may govern the whites. llEr "It would seem that, after all, 'Andrew Johnson, extreme as he is, is not up to the requirements ,Cof the,pure, orthodox school of Democracy as rep resented by Black, Yallandigham, Cly mer, Pendleton, and Viroodwar&"— Forney's Press. It would seem thon, that, after all, you have for months and years boon misrepresenting Andrew Johnson by asserting that ho had gone over to the "enemy." It is now possiblo that Forney will soon be a Johnson man again—or something else. zTho people are looking with pa tience for the President's Message,ond the other official documents. While Johnson's Message may excite some interest, we think Grant's report will excite still more: Everybody is being taught to look to him now. Well, wo will see what we *ill see, when the re port is published. Wo believe the President will talk moderately and impassionately in tone, while Grant will mind his own business, and give .the politicians very little comfort. ,C4r The efforts of the leading spirits of the impeachment movement to got a majority in each House to Myer their scheme, it is said, will fail. TUE IMPEACIIMENT BUSINESS.—The Pittsburg Commercial, one of the best Republican papers in the State, gays : "It is probable that we ,could not state a more significant fact than that, up to this time, so far as our observa tion extends, not a reprosontive Re publican paper, of indeed , a Republi can• paper of any kind, has come out in unqualified support of . the proposition to impeach the President:en, the testi mony reported by the Judielaty. Com mittee, while most of - them strongly oppose such a course. This, wo think, may be taken as accurately reflocting the ROpublican sentiment at the pres ent moment. The terse report of the minority, signed by Messrs. Wilson and Weedridgd,'We,apihohend, is Prot ty generally approved' by the popular judgment.' ' The fall elOctiohs are over—politi cians cannot see` that they can deceive the voters any : longer—and they, con fess their politibal Shia. The ImP`mich meat Committee has . eost the people hundreds of thOusands of dollars, : to gratify partisan .passion, and all its la hors amount tO.nothing:: We never believed - President Johnson could bo impeached. We believed the threat was only made to influence the mass of voters to vote With the .radical par ty. The Radical's Must now arrange a new programme, to deceive •and plunder the People—the impeachment swindle' is,played out. lairEacumENT.--The , almost univer. sal tenor of the comments of the Re publican papers is in accord with the following, which is the conclusion of an elaborate article in the Chicago Tribune, the leading Republican journal in the Northwest : Let those who propose to sacrifice everything to impeachment remember that at the next election they will have to go before a pdoplo who have deman ded a revision of the revenue laws, an improvement of• the currency, and a stable adjustment of tho debt, and who will laugh with conterept in the face of the man wholias the impudence to toll them that a neglect of those, is com pensated or atoned for by an attempt to impeach the President upon charges so strained and threadbare that they ought not to merit an investiga tion by a court of potty sessions. . Important from Washington. WASHINGTON, Nov. 27, 18G7 impeachment Losing Ground The Impeachment project is losing ground. Well informed members ex• press the belief that if a vote were ta ken at the next mooting of the House, triatibjobt-would.bo-tabled by a de,ei sivi3 majority. Two or three who wore known to favor the impeachment last summer have come out openly against it since reading the testidony, and as can be ascertained, not a single con vert to impeachment has been made since the testimony was printed. The President's Temperance. B, B. French, Esq , of thie city, has written for publication a letter in re ference to the remarks on temperance by lion. Mr. Price, in which ho spoke of President Johnson as a drunkard. Mr. French says that ns Commissioner of Public Buildings, duty required that ho should visit the no house, almost daily and no week passed when ho did not have personal interviews with President.

The report of itie Secretary of the Treasury was this afternoon mailed to Collectors of ROvenue and Assistant Treasurers, to delivered to the President simultaneously with 'its pre sentation to Con'gress. It is learned positively that the Secretary holds to his well known policy of contraction of the currency, and thinks that the law giving him the discretion to contract forty-eight milliens a year ought not to be repealed. He takes, on the other hand, strong ground against expan sion and declares that if that policy bo inaugurated by Congress, it will prove disastrous to the country and ultimate ly lead to repudiation. 'Re interprets the law in reference to the government bonds as pledging tbo country to their payment,principal and interest, in coin. He believes that if their redemp tion in currency shall be adopted the effect would be disastrous. tfir - Tho fire eater Hunnicutt has been arrested in Richmond for using incendiary language to an assemblage of negroes in that place, on the 27th of September last.

What the Country Needs, [From tho N. Y. Tlmos.] • - "What the country needs now more than anything else is pacification. Wo need peaeo. 7 ,-not only in; form, but in fact, peace that shall involve harmony of sentiment; unity of purpose and of: ; feeling among the people of the sec: tions lately at war. Without such a peace as this, nothing else that M ' may think wo have secured will be worth a straw. We may force negro suffrage upon the South, and maintain it by the bayonet;-but until it ie there by some different tenure than that, 'it will be a curse instead of bleSsing to' all concerned, and especially to the ne groes themselves. When negro suf frage can be established in: the South _With the assent' of the Southern poeplo —an assent based "on - the conviction that it is intendedi for the common good, and is not sitaply . another form of hostile; force, it ,consolidate " Southern political soeietY,.and' contri bute,largely to, the good of the whole country. But 'this stattr of thing. 4 can not be reached until Peita—the spirit of peace, as-well as its form—is yestor ed to the section hitcly,al war:, And the same thing fs trne tho'chang-' es and reforms which should follow in the South as the results ,of ,the war.— We may force them`Upon the South ern States as upon a conquered section. We may maintain them there by mili tary power. But so long'as this is the only hold they have ; upen ,the South ern people, they Will only breed strife and contention—not 'contribute to the peace and strength" Of the common country. The South 'will regard them as simply force in another form. The great mistake in what has been done since the war was closed; to, 'that it has been: done in- the spirit and tern-- per of, conquerors dealing with a cony, quered people. :After a war between independent nations peace comes only through a treaty; a compact to which both are equal parties ; it is not impos ed by the victor without_ the consent of the vanqiiished, and maintained--by a constant display, of armed „power. Such a close of war Would not be peace. It would have nothing of the spirit of peace. It would) beal none of the, wounds, soothe nofiii of the .asperities; allay none of the. hatreds which :Abe war bad caused; and this is far more true of the peace that should follow - war between contendino , sections of the same country. The terms of peace in such a case, Wit is to bring'with it the fruits*of peace, • must be such as the judgment of both parties can ap prove and , such as both can: accept without a sense of humiliation. The President's policy had this feature to, recommend it at all events: Whether right or wrong in its details,. it made the South an assenting and willing party to the peace which it sought to bring about. And the groatdefeet in the policy of Congress' has been, that it springs froin a different temper and breathes a different' 'spirit. Whether :right or wrong in-its details, it is ,im posed upon' the Soitth,bY force. It goes out under threats—backed up by mili tary power, and enforced as an act and badge of subjugation rather than offer ed as a basis of peace which both par ties can accept with honor, and as con ducive to their common interests. Dif ferences of detail ~would have been very easily adjusted, if the subjeet had been thus approached in the spirit - of a real and substantial peace. But this has not been done. We are as far, from real peace to-,day as --we were when the war was closed, In deed, the feeling that now prevails be: tween the two, sections is less peaceful, more bitter and more hostile, than it was when Lee surrendered to Grant. The people•feel thisto be the fact, and 'they deplore it as dalcolated to plunge the country deeper 'And deeper into trouble and confusion. We are not coming out of the war with either cred it to dui-solves or profit to, the country. We are simply prolonging its enmities and 'widening the breach which the des sation of armed strife ought to have closed. Nor does the progress of re construction, under the law of Con gress, promise speedy relief. That is regarded as a hostile act by the pee: pie of the Southern States—as intended to' overturn and humiliate them, and' as calculated to disorganize their soot-, oty and destroy, their prosperity. •• The coming Presidential, election will bring.this.matter to an issue. If the Democratic party should elect a President; representing :the principles and policy to which - they have adhered throughout the war, we should haVe the whole contest ,to be fought over again, in the political arena, if 'net In the field of arms.' If the Republicans, on the other hand, should elect one of their "representative men"—;a: politi cian who has achieved distinction by waging a war of sentiments and-ideas agaihst the South, he would carry' tho bitterness thus engendered into hfs administration of, public affairs, and would renew the asperities of a con 'test which bad been finally and, victor iously closed: In either ease pacifica tion would not be secured._ That can be brought about only, by-an adminis 'tration which shall inherit none of_the 'hatreds and heatS of forinei contests, and which can net with no other tram mels than such as a supreme regard for the honor of the country, and the permanent welfare its free institutions may impose." The Trial of Jefferson Davis, [Special Despatch to the Phila.

Judge Underwood said all who had conscientious scruples against taking an oath should'inform the court. None answered. In being sworn, whites and blacks took the bible together, which caused a smile throughout the court-room.
