THE IMPEACHMENT TRIAL.
There was a very animated session of the
Biapeachment Court on Saturday. That un
fortunate old creature, Lorenzo Thomas, was
recalled by Mr. Stanbery for the purpose of
correcting his evidence, but he only managed
to get himself into a mom pitiful muddle than
ever, and General Butler returned him to his
keepers in such a demoralized. condition that
it is hardly likely that they will produce him
again. Some of his answers were intensely
amusing. He waxed valiant as he assured the
Senate that he "certainly did call Karsner a
liar and a perjurer." Who will venture to
question his military prowess after that? To
be sure, he says in the next breath, that he
"may have mid he was a perjurer," which
tempers the wind of Lorenzo's wrath to the
shorn lamb who turned the "eyes of Dela
ware" upon him. But Lorenzo, turning from
that possible bayonet at the War Office to call
the good-humored Delawarian ugly names, is
like nothing in the world but the little boy
who couldn't whip his antagonist but could
"make mouths at his sister." General
Butler, unawed by the gorgeous pres
ence of the Ad Interim, actually
asked him whether 'he did not use
any bodily violence toward the now immortal
Kanner. The answer of Lorenzo must
never be forgotten. Arrangements should be
made to immortalize it. Lorenzo says, says
lie, "I was then in full uniform—as lam
now,—.llfajor-General's uniform!"
Weighty words were these, and not to be
easily solved. Deep words are these, not to
be quickly fathomed. They may mean many
things. Perhaps they mean that no greater
violence could possibly be done to the rustic
Kanner than to blaze suddenly upon him
in 'all the buttons and lace and stars
of a Major-General's < uniform. Perhaps,..
they mean that violence to Karsner
could not possibly be attempted without risk
of damage to that immaculate suit. Perhaps
they mean that a Lorenzo in full military uni-
form is morally incapable of any violent act.
Perhaps they were only the bubbling over of
irrepressible pride, wounded to the quick be
cause neither the Court nor the counsel had
made any allusion to his pretty clothes in all
these two days of hisexamination, and there
fore he was resolved to get in that important
fact at all hazards. Time will perhaps solve
the mystery that hangs over Lorenzo's remark
able words. General Butler evidently fel t
that they were too much for him.
But the important part of Saturday's work
was the contest between the Managers and
the President's counsel over the testimony of
General Sherman. A perusal of the proceed
ings shows how important the President's
counsel consider it to got in his conversations
with General Sherman and the others who
would follow. They hope to prove that
because Andrew Johnson may have adopted
a certain tone with General Sherman,
be must have adopted the same with Ad
Interim Thomas. Mr. Stanbery pressed
this point of the tactics of the de
ems with great pertinacity, but was
met and defeated' by General Butler
at, all 'points. The Chief Justice ruled
in favor of the first attempt to carry out this
programme, but the Senate refused to sustain
him, and Mr. Chase, thereafter, submitted
the question of admissibility to the. Senate
without expressing an opinion. It was re
jected in all its forms, sometimes without a
division, and the counsel of the President
finally abandoned the field, reserving the
right to resume the attempt to-day.
It must be evident to every one that if
Mr. Johnson is to be permitted to vindicate
his lawless course by means of conversations
held at other times, with other persons than
those who are parties to the acts charged
upon him, this trial must swell out to almost
interminable proportions; worse than this, as
Mr. Wilson well said, in his argument on
Saturday, no officer of the Government could
ever be impeached, and no criminal could
ever be convicted in a court of justice, if the
secured should be permitted to defend him
self by , putting in his own previous declara
tions in justification. Mr. Sumner and some
of the other staunchest • advocates of
impeachment voted on Saturday on
fitanbery's side; but it is evi
dent that they did so simply from a
desire to give Andrew Johnson the largest
possible latitude. They allowed this liberality
to carry them too far in this case, and it is a
awase of congratulation among those who
hope for a speedy termination of the trial
that there were no more of the Senators
The Legislature having refused to sanction
the use of the Penn Squares for important
educational establishments, the Directors of
one of these—the Academy of Natural
Sciences—have selected another site for their
building. They have purchased for $60,000
slot of grotmd measuring 288 feet on Nine•
teenth street, 183 feet on Race street, fronting
Logan Square, and 139 feet on, Cherry street.
The situation is a fine one, though not equal
to 'that on Penn Square. There is ample room
for putting up a very Commodious
and it will be commenced at once, the fund s
remaining on hand amounting to $112,000.
The edifice will be plain but substantial- The
unequalled 'museum and fine library of the
Academy will be well accommodated, and'

THE GETTYSBURG , SWINDLE.
The Gettysburg Invalid Soldiers' Lottery
scheme has died hard. More than a year
ago this illegal scheMe was exposed and de
nounced by the EVEWINO Bourirm and ono
or two other papers, and its character became
so well known here that even patriotic, Phila
delphia repudiated tke scheme with all its be
nevole.nt pretentions, and the attempt to im
pose on this community utterly failed. The
Attorney-General of the State` followed it UD
with all the powers of his office, and the re
sult was a withdrawal of its charter by the
Legislature and a confiscation of its effects.
But although this scheme pretended
to be a Pennsylvania one, its seat of active
operation has been, for a long time past, in
New York. There the lottery business, is
more easily prosecuted than here, and by
vigoroub advertising and a general blowing
of trumpets and beating of gongs, the Broad
way office of this precious enterprise is said to
have continued in successful operation, until
within a few days, when the whole establish
ment suddenly disappeared and the gulls of
New York are left to enjoy the pleasant conse
quences of their misplaced confidence.
kis a singular coincidence that just as this
grand lottery scheme has breathed its last,
the lottery gamblers have won a marked vic
tory at Harrisburg. We referred, on Satur
day, to the extraordinary action of the Leg
islature in passing a bill to break up lottery
operations in Philadelphia, and then sud
denly reconsidering the vote and defeating
the bill. No reason is assigned for this
strange piece of legislation, except that the
law puts power into the hands of the police
to extort black-mail. The fact that
Mr. Mann, of Potter, offered in
vain to strike out the police clause, shows
clearly enough that this was not the real
cause of the sudden change of opinion. In
deed, it is so well known that it is the ten
dency of all police forces to, do less and not
more than their prescribed duties, that it is
absurd to suppose that there would be too
rnuelcoilleiousness in carrying out the pro
visions of the law. The Legislature did a
good deed when it quashed the Gettysburg
scheme,and it will only be acting consistently
when it sets its face against every establish
ment and enterprise that tends in the same
direction.
THE BROWNS AFTER A FORTUNE.
Rewards have been freely and frequently
offered for any person who could produce a
second family of Virginia. There were
"First Families" in abundance; no properly
constituted native of the Old Dominion being
ever yet content to class himself as origi
nally belonging in any family circle less im
portant than that classed under the primitive
numerical. Pocahontas was of one of the first
families; the Randolphs who claim direct de
scent from Mr: Rolfe, the "Pale-face" who
wedded the interesting, dusky, eccentric
and acrobatic young aborigine who had
saved the name of Smith to the world—all
claim to belong to the first families of Vir
ginia. But the F. F. V's do not forth the
proper theme of this article or we could name
a good many Virginia first families
who, upon the homely principle that "pretty
is as pretty does," hardly stand A No. 1 in
loyal estimation at the present time. We
were only about to say that second families
of Virginia are not scarcer than American
families of. Anglo-Saxon descent who have
not large and generally confident expectations
of inheriting huge fortunes from England.
Very many of these Girards, Astors, Pea
bodys and Gaineses by anticip alien, fondly
believe themselves to be the direct descend
ants of the nobility or gentry of the British
realm, and although they are not, as a genera'
rule, versed in the mysteries of the Herald's
College and know but little about
Saxon and Norman, Harold and the Con
queror, the White Rose or the Red, Guelph,
Stuart, Tudor or Plantagenet, they still have
an abidin&faith in the fact that they are mem
bers of a junior line of nobility or gentry
of which the seniors have died out, leaving
untold millions in Chancery, or somewhere
still slower and less certain, to be divided
among the American heirs at some future
day. The Thelluson estate amused fortune
seekers long ago, and it afforded innumerable
heirs, in the remotest order of consanguinity,
an excellent opportunity to make a perma
nent investment of their spare funds. Then
there is the famous Jennens estate, with all
the varied changes that are rung upon the
name. 111-starred American Anglo-Saxons,
who happen to bear the name of Jennens,Jen
nings, Jenyings, or even Jenkins, have golden
dreams of prospective wealth. They have
indulged in such bright visions in the remote
past, and the survivors of them will
probably continue far into the fu
ture to indulge. hopes of being
millionaires. We have no desire to dis
courage any Jennens, Jennings, of Jenyings,
nor yet would we like to spoil the business of
counsellors, agents or the draughtsmen of
genealogical trees; but there is a story of
" Jarndyce and Jarndyce" that has an ad
mirable fitness to similar cases of pecuniary
hopes deferred, which not only make the
heart sick but which also make the pocket
light.
But with such names as Thelluson, Jen
nem, Jennings or Jenyings; it is compara
tively plain sailing to trace four or five gener
ations of heirs through family bibles, mar
riage certificates, church registers and Ili&
recollections of old gossips. But think
of the idea of hunting up all the multitudinous
heirs of a certain George Brown who came
to this country from England more
than two and a quarter centuries ago! Think
of tracing out innumerable resulting Browns,
and of the hardship of discovering which
were the real Browns for the purposes of
this claim, and which belonged to the Browns
across the way who have no pecuniary
claims or legal consideration! Within a day
or two sixty or seventy persons, who claimed
to represent the Brown family of New Eng
land, met to discuss their chances concern
ing an estate of sundry millions of pounds
sterling, which is said to be seeking an
owner in Old England: The business that
was afoot brought together a great variety of
Browns to its consideration. There were
light Browns wbo almost drifted over the
verge into Whites; dark Browns that had al
most become Black, and, in short, such an
intermarrying and intermixture with 'Blacks,
Whites and times, that it required the keen
THE DAILY EVENING BULLETIN.-PHILADELPHIA, MONDAY, APRIL 13, 1868.
eye of a cunning geneological colorist to dis
cover where the true Brown ended and a
non-heiring_Brown began..
At the meeting of the Brown heirs at Bos
ton last week, some inquisitive and satirical
Brown "consulted a "Hub" Directory and
discovered that there are ito less than six
hundred persons who bear the sober-hued
name, who figure upon its pages. Adding to
these, women, children and non-housekeep
ers, and we have a grand army of about six
thousand Browns, each of whom doubtless
feels entire confidence in his or her direct de
scent from the Brown who came to Massa
chusetts in 1640, and who, it is said, was the
lawful heir to the untold millions, that six
thousand Browns are now ready and willing
to divide among themselves. When the Ver
mont Browns and the Browne from the inte
rior of Massachusetts and the Browns that
have scattered themselves all eYer the coun
try, come to be added to the six
thousand Boston proprietors of the
name, there will be such a pouring
forth of Browns as will appal any Master in
Chancery, and strike dismay into the breast
of the unfortunate Chancelloe,who is con
strained to listen to conflicting claims and
decide upon the genuineness of contending
claimants. Under such circumstances the
Browns of New England will probably have
to wait a long time before they obtain any
satisfactory returns for preeent outlays, and
upon the whole they would perhaps be better
employed in planting corn and potatoes,
making shoes or attending to their cotton
spindles, than in seeking for fortunes in the
moon, and, in the pursuit, diverting present
means from capital that might be profitably
employed with much greater certainty.
A leading Democratic cotemporary says :
"Grant, not only accepted an appointment
ad interim just as General Thomas did, but
actually filled the office for some time. Ad
interim Grant is as appropriate a title as ad
interim Thomas." This is a very fair speci
men of Copperhead ingenuousness. The
Civil Tenure bill distinctly accords to the
President the right to suspend an officer of
the Government during the recess of Con
gress, and authorizes him to fill the vacant
place temporarily, giving to the Senate his
reasons for the suspension immediately upon
the reassembling of that body. Gener
Grant was ordered by his superior officer to`
do an act which he believed to
be within the line of his duty and
clearly within the pale of the law,
and he was too good a soldier to refuse to
perform it, unpalatable as it doubtless was to
him. The Senate upon reassembling de
clared the reasons of the President for. the
suspension of Mr. Stanton to be insufficient
and ordered his restoration to the 'War Office. ,
General Grant obeyed the law, without a
moment's hesitation. .General Thomas,upon
the other hand, was made the cat's paw in an
attempt to subvert the Government, breal
down law and defy Congress, and the com
parison between the hero of Vicksburg and
the weak and pompous tool of Andrew John
son, is as unreasonable as an attempt to run
a parallel between a law-observer and a law
breaker; between loyal devotion to duty and
disloyal and factious efforts to defy law and
usurp power. Ingenuousness is certainly
not among the Copperhead cardinal virtues.
It may afford some consolation to such of
the readers of the BULLETIN as are anxious
upon the subject of the non-arrival of
"etherial mildness," to know that the weather
during the present spring is by no means ex
ceptional. By consulting the local meteoro
logical records for many years back, it will
be found that snow and ice as late as the pre
sent period were not at all wifregnent. It is
also true that where winter lingers until far
into April, nothing more is heard of it after
the middle of the month, and the weather
and vegetation "make up for lost time" when
the season fairly opens. It is satisfactory to
know that backward springs are apt to se
cure the safety of early fruits and grains.
Had vegetation got a start in March, the
mows and frosts of the present month would
have caused sad havoc with it. The sun
will soon scatter the snowy covering which
was put upon the earth last night, and we
may then look for the speedy arrival of mild
weather with the substantial contingents
for which all are so anxiou3.

'The Farewell to Mr. Dickens.
Minn to4lAy's New York Tribuce.l
Mr:Dickens has accepted the invitation of the
press to a public dinner for Saturday evening, the
18th of April. This. we believe, is the only pub
lic attention Mr. Dickens has accepted in A.meri
ea. There will probably be a larger representa
tion of the American press than were ever before
skesembled, nearly, if not all, the principal journ
als in the country this aide of the Mississippi hav
tog been invited, together with members of other
professions. The chair is to he taken by Mr..
Greeley, and, apart .from the ' great, fame whi c h
Mr. Dickens has'weri as a writer, his brethren or
the press will be more happy to entertain him as
a reporter of The Horning . Chronkle, afterward
editor of The Daily New and now having escaped
from the perils and responsibilities of the
daily press, the ' editor and proprietor of All the
Year Round. Little publicity, if any, has been
given to this banquet, and we speak of it now as
something that will interest our readers,'Those
who desire any special information in reference
to it should address Mr. Henry E. Bweetser, the
fiecretary of the CoMinittee, at the office of The
World.

Easter at Rt. Albums P. E. Church.
New York—Celebration of High
Mass.
[From the New York World et To .day.)
)Moll MASS AT ST. ALI:AN'S.
The services at St. Alban's yesterday were on a
very imposing scale. "Low Mass" was cele
brated at 7 o'clock in the morning, and "High
Mass" at 103. o'clock. The church was crowded
with worshippers at tht latter service, and the
aisle:: of the narrow but pretty sacred edifice were
filkd to overflowing. The officiating priests
were the Rev. Father Noyes Father Morrill,
deacon, and Father' Elmendorf, sub-deadon. The
keele, *pug, Brnedictus and Sanctus, from Mo
zart's "Twelfth Mass." were sung, and the c redo
and Ghe its in ExcasiA,' of Morbeeke. At
the offertory, the Gloria of Mozart's Twelfth
Mass was sung with imposing effect by the chor
isters. The sermon on the Resurrection was
preached by Father Noyes, and was a very elo
quent effort. In the sermon the reverend gentle
man alluded to the Virgin as the "Blessed" Vir
gin, and similar high , church tendencies were
noticeable in bis eliscourse. The vestments of
the priests were as nearly like those worn by Ro
man. Catholic priests during the service of the
mass - as could be expected, without ,being the
real thing: .In- the posturing reverences
and p nutlex ions before the altar by the priests
and acolytes every time they passed it, one was
naturally reminded of the Similar observances in
the Catholic churches. The intonation and chants
were also also evidently studied from the same
source—the flowers on the altar, the mighty can
delabra, the highly-wrought and beautiful em
broidered silken altar cloths, the handsome silken
square banners like those used by religions socie
ties in the Catholic church, with chalices and coin
murion cups worked iu the centre, and crosses
sad lambs with aureolas of light around their
heads; the engraving on the pyres, the stained
glass window, the illuminated letters, the Gospel
books, and in fact everything inside the church,
called to mind the paraphernalia and gorse - et:its
decoration of the Roman Catholic Church.
While consecrating the bread and wine with
uplift( d hands, Father Noyes, suegested
something of a. similar kind at the
Church of the • Jesuits, but with the .11mil
l:cations that the Jesuit fathers might pro
nounce it as wanting in genuineness. At the
Canon of t h e Mass, the long pluses and the si
b:tops:9 ers were manipulated in such a peculiar
and striking manner that it astonished all those
who had not visited St. Alhan's before. In en
terieg the sanctuary, a number of acolytes
dressed in white and red surplices and gowns
like their juvenile compeers of the Romish
church. preceded an immense gilded cross borua
by a handsome lad robed as an acolyte. Alter
which cameltie priests in their gergeous -vest
ments. nulling the Offertory there was a dead
silence in the handsome little church. and every
head was bowed with reverence. At the name of
Jesus every one bowed lowly, and the deacons in
passing from the gospel to the epistle side of the
.altar bowed continually. In serving the wine
the deacon stood on the second step of the altar,
and poured it out with his head bent. In leav
lag the celebrant the deacon bowed again and
again to the priest. Clouds of incense filled the
church and floated upward to the rafters in
strange and fantastic shapes. A lady was
carried out during the service, having
fainted, it was said, from the strong
odors of the Incense. Nothing was wanting to
complete the effect, but that the service shonld be
read in the tongue of Gregory and Thomas de
Aquinas, Instead of in the language of Milton or
Booker. Tee, there were two things more.
There should be a sound of tinkling bells at the
consecration of the bread and wine, and the ab
sence of the white robed choristers would be
necessary. The music was Gregorian through
out, with the exception of a delicious waltz-time
air which was played immediately before the
communion was administered.
Affairs In Florida—Riot Between Sail
ors and Negroes—ll he :Former Badly
Beaten—Reported Indian Atrocities.
HEY WEST, April 4th, 1868.—There was quite a
serious riot here yesterday, in which some sailors
and negroes were injured. The affray began be
tween ten and eleven o'clock in the morning, and
was inaugurated by a company of six or seven
sailors, who, vvbile§roaming the streets drunk,
attacked a negro woman and child, striking the
latter In the, face. The woman instantly rushed
to the negro quarters and alarmed the blacks,
who at once sallied out to the number of fifty or
more, armed with clubs and stones. Finding the
sailors, they made an assault upon them, and
drove them from street to street, the latter fight
ing vigorously on the defensive. Two of them
were knocked down and terribly beaten. The
negroes then retired to their quarters and peace
was restored.
It is reported here that the Indians In Florida
have declared war against the whites, and that at
Fish Eating creek they had burned two houses
and scattered the families. It was also reported
that one man was burned at the stake. Bat this
Is evidently an exaggeration.

Pall Mall Gazette replies to this by referrhig to
Mrs. Gentlivre and Mrs. Inehbald, who have

humor. Miss Burney is oleo generally credited
with humor, though of , a somewhat coarse tex
ture. But for fineness of quality Miss Austin
ranks among the most remarkable of humorists.
Mrs. Beecher Stowe has manifesta humor of a
rare quality. Mrs. Gaskell, , also, m her novels is
distinctively humorous, and it would be difficult
to persuade most people that George Eliot is
altogether without humor..

THIRD. EDITION.
FROM WASHINGTON.
THE IMPEACHMENT TRIAL;
XLth Conomeng—Second tionnton.
WASHINGTON, April.l3.
BENATE.--The reading of the Journal was dis
pensed with, and the Chief Justice stated the
question before the [Court to be on the motion
allowing as many of the Managers and, counsel
to participate in the final debate as May wish to
do so.
Mr. Sumner offered an amendment providing
that no further postponement shall be caused
thereby, which was accepted by Mr. Freling
huyeen.
Before the vote was taken, Mr. Williams, one
of the managers, desired to be heard, and spoke
twenty minutes in favor of the motion. Ho was
followed by Mr. Stevens, who said he would de
sire to speak briply in support of the article
which he had been instrumental In introducing,
and would also be glad to have some of his as
sociates afforded an opportunity to speak.
Mr. Frelinhuysen (N. J.) modified his motion
by adding a proviso that only one of the Mana
gers could dose. and Mr. Sherman (Ohio) offered
a further amendment that the additional time
allowed to each side shall not exceed three hours.
Mr. Boutwell, of the Managers, opposed the re
solution limiting the close to one Manager.
Mr. Stanbery remarked that the counsel for
the President neither opposed nor favored the
raotion,which originated with the other side, but
they were strongly opposed to any limitation of
time to be allowed for final arguments.
Mr. Sherman then withdrew his amendment.
Mr. Butler intimated that. in no case would he
take an advantage of a change to speak again,
and desired to know whether the counsel for the
President desired the rule changed.
Mr. Sumner (Mass.) offered a proviso that all
the Managers who speak shall close.
Mr. Everts said if the rules were enlarged four
of the President's counsel would probably take
an hour each, but they considered it unfair that
they should be met by Fix opposing them, and
certainly that they should all have the close.
Mr. Williams moved to lay the proposition on
the table.
Mr. Drake (Mo.) raised the point of order that
such action could not be taken by the Senate
sitting as a Court of Impeachment.
This was overruled by the Chief Justice, and
the vote was taken, resulting :;8 to 1; so the rule
remains unchanged.

The New York Money Market.
!From today's N. Y. Herald.)
A erne. 12.—The most Potable event of the week In IVall
street was the decline of sixty-two and a half per cent. in
the stock of the Atlantic Mall Company in a mingle day.
This ehonld. and doubtless will serve as a warning to the
banks to be more careful than they have hitherto been of
e 'character of their collaterals as well as the extent of
their mat gins. Pacific Mail also declined to 86, while rail
way shares, and particularly Erie, New York Central and
Hudson River, were weak,the first mentioned having sold
down to 694 on Saturday and the second to 117'4. while
there was a nominal break of 10 per cent. in the third, the
quotation after the boards having declined to 126 against
sales at Min the morning, but this was followed by a re
covery to 129. The market was, however, drooping at the
clove and a very unsettled feeling prevailed among hold
ers of stocks. whose chief anxiety at present is to realize.
Money was in moderate supply during the early part of
the a eek at seven vet cent in currency, but towards the,
(lore it became active and this rate in gold was paid in
many instances, leaders at the same time discriminating
very closely as to collaterabt.
The abatement of stringency in the money market at
the commencement of the week led to a strong upward
reaction in government securities, and the advance aver
aged about two per cent from the lowest prices of the
previous week, the improvement being stimulated by
purchases to cover "short" sales. On Wednesday afters
noon, however, they began to react in the opposite direc
tion, and by noon on Saturday a decline of more than one
per cent had taken place, chiefly owing to
attifiClal pressure. From this point, how
ever, there was a sharp advance of a half
per cent, under a good investment and speculative de•
acand, and at the close the market tied a strong up
ward tendency, the apprehensions of increased monetary
activity previously entertained having given place to a
feeling of confidence in a Moderately abundant supply of
money et seven per cent. next week on government's
and other tint-clam collaterals. The diflictilty
of borrowing from the banks on the high.
priced speculative etocks Is, however, likely to be
tench more ditlicult in the immediate future
than it has been in t lie past, and this will tend to make
money easier to borrowers on the public funds. The de
moralized condition of the railwayshare market has very
naturally lammed the distrust of lenderemnd the break in
Atlantic Mail will, it is feared, prove the precursor of a
similarly rapid decline in finch high-priced stocks as New
York Central. Hudson River and Harlem, which together
with Erie, are regarded as dangerous, owing t r the litiga
tion and unprecedentedlo heavy Wall w reet opera
tient, in which the party controlling and sustaining them
isenge god. 'I he outside public has entirely „withdrawn
from the stock market, and the latter depend,' for it,, sun
t a holly upon cliques, and ouch a market is ahvays In
reality weak one, Cuader such eircumstance4 capital
is likely to be diverted from railway securities into gov
ernments, and there will probably bee inure active specu
lative demand for them than usual until prices are much
lower than at present for other stocks. The diebereement
of the May interest on the public debt will temporarily
etimidate the demand for investment, and the fact that
tie govt I nnu-nt issm.s have reached their maximum and
been absorbed favors an appreciation of their market
value, while for the interest they pay they are the cheap
est i tocke in Wall street.
The gold market wan, on the whole, firm, but without
speculative animation, and tho thictnatiom , were front
13'73A to with the closing transactions atl3B,'i-
The shipments of specie and 'bullion during the week ag
gregat d $891,8..07. at the receipts for customs duties at
the port were $2,237,616. The Sub-Treasury sold coin to a
mode.ate • amount, and the sides on Saturday
are understood to' have amounted to
about $40,000. The undertone of the
market was strengthened by the firrunces of the rates of
exchange on Europe; but no important change in the
premium is likely to take piece under exieting (drums
etancee. sad epectilation is without any decided feature.
The "short" interest created by sales of borrowed gold
for the sake of the currency during the recent stringency
has been reduced, and the borrowing demand for coin is
limited.

THE IMPEACHMENT TRIAL
EXAMINATION OF GEN. SHERMAN
il 301 ftWki 44 10 ii 0 DIVAAE.:4A
THE INDIAN COMMISSION.
X.Lth Congress--Second Session.
iSdruar.—Continued from Third Edition.l
The examination of Gen. Sherman was then
resnme,d. Mr. Stanbery asked thofollowing ques
tion :
- -
After the restoration of Mr. Stanton did yon
form an opinion as to the desirability for the
goodhf the service" of the office of Secretary of
War being filled by another than Mr. Stanton,
and if so did you
,express your opinion to the
President?
Objection was made and argued by Mr. Bing
ham.
Mr. Stanbery replied , that the question of in
tent was of vital importance. They did not of
fer this testimony as an abstract opinion, bat as
the judgment formed and expressed by the sec
ond officer in the service for its good. He re
ferred to the relations existing between the Presi
dent and Mr. Stanton, and claimed it was com
petent to prove that distinguished generals like
General Sherman believed a change should be
made in the interest of the goVernment. He ap
pealed earnestly to the Senate, for the sake of
justice, to admit the evidence:
Mr. Butler rejoined that by introducing irrele
vant testimony the law would be broken to assist
abi caking of the law. He said there will be no
limit to inquiries which could be put to the wit
ness. The Manager's could ask him if he had had
a quarrel with Mr. Stanton, if that circumstance
influenced hie opinion, and so the field of inquiry
would be boundless. He said it seemed to be as
sumed by the other side that the evil intent must
be proved by something which the President had
said, whereas his evil intention was sufficiently
proved by his act in threatening the law. It was
also immaterial whether Mr:Stanton was or was
not a fit man to be retained in office. Evil could
not be done that good might come. Referring to
a remark of Mr. Stanbery that Mr. Stanton did
not take part in the Cabinet couneibi, he
said there was no such thing contemplated
by the Constitution. Members of the Cabinet
were to be called on for advice respecting the af
fairs of their own departments. The President
mutt show that he had ever called on Mr. Stan
ton for a written opinion, or that he had given
him an order which he had disobeyed.
Mr. Conkling (N. Y.) inquired if the counsel
proposed to prove that General Sherman had ad
vised the President to procure a change in any
particular way.
Mr. Stanbery replied in the negative. The
witness had only expressed an opinion as to the
desirability of some change.
Mr. Evarta said it was not merely a question of
having committed a violation of law, which W. 15
punishable in another court by so small a penalty
as six cents fine or a few days' imprisonment,
but it was a question of the commission of an
impeachable offence, in which all evidence re
lating to motive was of the most vital im
portance. •
Mr. Bingham held that the Jules of evi
dence were the same on the trial Of a beggar or a
_President.
Mr. Everts interrupted to say he had in his re
marks supposed the President to be on trial for
a petty offence, and repelled the insinuation
that he could mete out justice according to
rank.
Mr. Bingham continued in an earnest appeal
against the admission of the testimony, and at
the conclusion of his remarks the yeas and nays
were taken, and resulted 15 to 35, so it was not
admitted.
lir. Johnson offered a question whether the
~witness, before the removal of Mr. Stanton, had
advised the President that he should be removed
and replaced.
The Chief Justice said the Court must decide
whether•the question should be put to the wit
ness, and the Senate decided in the negative by a
Note of 18 to 32.
Mr. Stan hery then said he had no more tines
lions to ask General Sherman.
The Managers declined to cross-examine, and
the Court took a recess at 2.10.
Wastiburne (Ill.) offered the fol
lowing preamble and resolution:
Whereas, It is reported that efforts are being
made to procure from the Government a transfer
to a private company, without consideration,
of the Island of St. Paul, a territory embraced in
the treaty with Russia.
And whereas, Said Island is believed to be very
valuable as being the only home of the fur seal
in the world. Therefore, be it
escfred, That the Committee on Foreign Af
fairs be directed to inquire into the matter, and
report to the House toughing such efforts to pro
cure a transfer to a private company of said
Island, and also in regard to its situation , etc.,
and all other facts connected therewith.
The resolution was agreed to.
Mr. Wasiaburne gave notice that In view of
legislation he should move a call of the House on
Thursday, in order that gentlemen who are now
absent may return by that time.
Mr. Banks (Mass.) said that if any business was
transacted after a call of the House, he should
move to take up the House bill for the protection
of the rights of American citizens in foreign States.
That has precedence of others.
The Speaker remarked that that was the first
business after disposing of the resolution to print
40,000 copies of the speech of Manager Butler.
Mr. Garfield (Ohio) gave notice that on the re
turn of the House from the Senate, he should,
ask for a vote on the resolution.
Mr. Eldridge said he should object to the trans
action of any business in the absence of a quo
rum, and he would also object to the resolution
unless one was admitted to print the opening
speech of Judge Curtis in behalf of the Presi
dent.
The Speaker said that would require unani
mous consent.
Mr. Kelley (Pa.) objected.
Mr. Lynch (Me.) Introduced a bill to amend an
act concerning the registering and recording of
ships or vessels, approved December 30, 1792,
which was referred to the Committee on
Commerce.
Mr. Welker (Ohio) introduced a bill further to
Amend the laws in the District of Columbia, in
relation to judicial proceedings therein. Re
ferred to the Committee for the District of Co
lumbia.
Mr. Coburn (Ind.) introduced a bill to establish
a post-road from Plainfield to Smootadell, In
diana. Referred to the Committee on Post-offices
and Post-roads.
On motion of Mr. Baker (111.) it was resolved
that the Secretary of War be instructed to com
municate to the House the report on the improve
ment of the harbor at Alton, Illinois.
Mr. Starkweather (Conn.) presented the peti
tion of H. S. Bedett and a hundred other citizens
of New London,Conneeticut, for the repeal of the
special tax on petroleum. Referred to the Com

Letter from August BelmOnt to the Des
mocrucy of Minnesota.
The following is a copy of a letter addressed to
.Mr. J. H. McKenney. Esq. a Member of the
National Democratic Executive Committee from
August Belmont, its Chairn3an •
NEW YORK, March 2, 1868.—./. U. McKenneli,_
Esq.—DEAR Slit: I have forwarded to you the
call of the Democratic National Committee for'
the holding of the next National Convention in
the city of New York on the 4th of July next.
Yon will please confer with the - State Central'
Committee of your State, to the end that she be
fully represented in the Convention by a number
of delegates to which she is entitled. The National
oCornmlttee is very Oestrous • that an earnest aft
peal should be made to the conservative
element throughout the Union which hats not r
heretofore acted with the Democratic party. We
call upon every Democratic voter to unite with
us in our efforts to save our free institution!.
from the lawless despotism which new thmaterts
the very foundation of our Government. It is
only by the united action of all who love the •
Union and the Constitution that we can hope to
drive from'power in the next Presidential elec
tion the Radical party, which, by (its reptresen
tatiyes in Congress, has attempted to
usurp the functions of the judiciary
and executive branches of the Government,
and which, by profligacy and corruption in the -
management of our national finances continues
to burden our people with a system of takation
which must end in public and private dislister,
unless arrested by a wise, sound and, economical
policy, such as a Democratic administration is
sure to give us. I hope you will lose no time in •
order to cause such measures to be taken in your
State as will bring to our aid in the contest be
fore us the combined strength of all those who
are opposed to Congressional usurpation and ne- '
gro supremacy, and who wish the restoration' of •
peace and unity between all the sections of our
common country under the blessings of the laws
and the Constitution, for which our brave sol
diers and sailors shed their blood, and the nation
poured out its treasure.

Letter from Mr. Stewart.
NEW Yon., Monday, March 30, 1868.-3 fr. P.
Cuneo, Sandusky, 0h10.,-Daari. SIR: Your favor
of the 27th inst. covering an extract from the
Allen county, Ohio, Democrat, of the 26th inst.,
stating that I had abandoned the support of Gen.
Grant for the Presidency, has been received,
With thanks for your kindness in drawing my
attention to the article, permit me to say that it
is entirely without foundation in fact.
So far from having withdrawn from General
Grant's support, I am, daily, as far as one indi
vidual can, exerting all honorable means to bring
about his nomination and election, helievin,g it
to be the only effectual way of giving peace and
prosperity to our present disunited Union.
Very truly yours, A. T. STEWART:
—The Maryland Legislature has enacted that
"the owner of every dog or bitch for which a
license shall be obtained• shall have a collar pn4
around his Or her neck." In case the owner •
doesn't wear a collar, the dog is to be shot.
Smart Legislature that!
