EVENING BULLETIN.
Tuesday.lay. 19. 1869.
.A es are turned now towards Chicago,
where the National Republican ConVention
is about to assemble. There is no question
as to the nomination for the Presidency. It
will be given by acclamation to General
Ulysses S. Grant, who saved the Union by
his skill and energy in the war, and who has
teen its chief defender against the schemes
of Andrew Johnson since the lamented death
of Lincoln.
One of the chief questions before the Con
vention will be the nomination of a candidate
for the Vice Presidency. Pennsylvania,
through her State Convention, has emphati
cally expressed her preference for her favor
ite,, drew G. Curtin, whose fidelity to the
lJniaband the soldiers during the war, and to
Republican principles at all times, have se
cured for him the lasting gratitude of the peo
ple. We trust our delegation will vote as a
unit in his favor, and that the delegations of
other States will see the importance of recog
nizing the claims of the• Keystone State.
The recent treachery of Republican Sena
tors on the impeachment business will re
ceive the serious consideration of the Con
vention. Judging from the speeches made
by representatives of Illinois, at a meeting,
held in Chicago last evening, there will be an
emphatic denunciation of Senator Trumbull,
and we trust that the Convention will
promptly and decidedly denounce and
repudiate all the other traitors to
the party, who have tried to sell it to the
faction of Andrew Johnson. We look also
for a platform which shall stoutly re-aflirm
all the great doctrines of. Republicanism that
were adopted in 1860 and 1864, under which
Abraham Lincoln was twice elected to the
Presidency, and the triumph of the cause of
the Union and equal rights was sedired.
THE PEOPLE AND THE RENATE.
The question is sometimes asked, Have the
public press and the people fur whom and
to whom it speaks, a right to express their
opinions of tue course of the renegade mem-
bens of the Senate? We propose to answer
this question.
The ground upon which this right is de
nied is that the -Senate being a jury sworn
to find a verdict in accordance with the law
and the evidence, any expression of outside
opinion, calculated to influence the verdict,is
an invasion of their rights, and therefore al-
together wrong. We believe that is the
argument. Let us see.
A jury is a body of men collected to try a
case at law, and to decide its merits. They
are supposed to know nothing of thost merits
beforehand. Their minds are like blank ta-
blets, ready to receive with entire impartiality
every impression which the evidence and the
instructions of the court shall make upon
them. They have nothing to do with the
case individually, and would not be admitted
into the jury-box if they had. Is the Senate
a jury in any such sense as this? Certainly
not. The Senate has been called upon to sit
in judgment upon its own laws and its own
acts. Every Senator, from the very nature.
of the case,had declared himself for or against
those official acts and laws, before Andrew
Johnson was impeached. Eaell of he seven
Senators who have now joined themselves to
Andrew Johnson, had already declared that
the charges laid against the President wore
true. There was one ground, and one only,
upon which these men could possibly have
been justified for a change of their
Votes. If, when Andrew Johnson
was tried, he had produced any
evidence to disprove 4the facts alleged
in the articles of impeachment, every
13enator in the Court would have acquitted
him, for it may fairly be assumed that all
Sen atorial honor and integrity have not con
centrated themselves in these immaculate
seven. No single new fact, however, was
elicited, and Andrew Johnson stands to-day
in precisely the same relation to Congress and
its laws as , he did on the.2lBt of February
last.
But the people at large, intensely interested
in this trial, and thoroughly capable ofjudging
all its merits, became aware that something
was wrong in the Court. Dim out-shadowings
of a conspiracy to acquit the accused, at all
hazards, deepened into darker shades, and at
last into tangible substance. It was seen
that some of these "jurors" were being tam
pered with. It was felt that political intrigue,
and even lower and meaner motives, were
swerving some of these men's minds from
the position which they had voluntarily as
sumed under all the sanctities of an official
oath. It was seen that they were plotting to
gether, not to do that "impartial justice"
between the people and a false Executive to
which they were sworn, but to promote their
own personal advantages,or gratify their own
personal animosities.
The people 1 ooked on in , fear ariar amaze
ment. The first rumors of the true state of
affairs were received with incredulity, and as
this doubt was dispersed by the development
of the plot, amazement gave way to a spon
taneous outburst of indignation from all
quarters of the land.
But what is the demand that the country
makes upon these men? Are they asked to
forego any oath? Are they asked
to disregard any intelligent conviction?
Are they asked tfl sacrifice any principle ?
Are they asked to surrender any proper offi
cial or personal ind enendence? We answer,
No ! The press and the people simply dei
nand of these men fidelity, not to their party,
but to their path. They are, seized upon by
: public opinion, in the very act of doing a
great political wrong, anti bidden to stand
and remember ! There is no power in this
land that is not amenable to the people, and
when the people see these seven men,
with all the proofs of an unright
eous conspiracy blazing along their
path, rushing into what Mr. Stevens, in t his
strong language yesterday, called a "great,
manifold, deep damnation," it would be
strange, indeed, if no voice had cried out,
warning them of their own danger, and de
manding that they should stand by the laws
which themselves had made, and which they
had already declared violated by the deed of
Andrew Johnson. The people not only had
a right to do this, but it was im
possible that they should not have
done it. The people know, what so
large a majority of the Senate 'has
declared,that Andrew Johnson is guilty of all
that has been charged against him, and when
they see that seven men, who have again and
again declared the same Thing, have suddenly
resolved to pronounce him innocent, it is
asking rather much to expect the country to
sit with folded hands and mute lips, and wit
ness their infamy unmoved.
DISRAELI'S DIFFICULTIES.
The English House of Commons proves
utterly unmanageable by Mr. Disraeli. Not
satisfied with his defeat on the Irish Church
question, be refuses to resign, and makes
new mistakes, which bring new defeats. Last
night, when the Scotch Reform bill was
under consideration, two amendments that
were sustained by the Ministry were rejected.
This must have been unexpected, but it had
its effect; for Mr. Disraeli, as the cable curtly
announces, said that "the Ministry must n o w
consider, their position."
If there had been a little consideration be
fore making opposition tl a liberal measure,
the Disraeli Ministry might , ; have recovered
some of the .confidence lost *hen it was de
feated on the Irish Church question. The
after consideration, upon a second and third
defeat, comes rather late, and its proper result
would seem to be a resignation. But Mr.
Disraeli is obstinate; nearly as obstinate as
Andrew Johnson, and perhaps the news that
the last named functionary has not been con
victed may encourage him to persevere in his
war with the legislative power of his
country. The English people, however, are
not likely to tolerate this, and besides, there
is no Whisky Ring or Chase Ring, or Free
Trade Ring to bargain with the British Par
liament. Mr. Disraeli will have to resign,
after one of the shortest and most inglorious
premierships known in English history.
DOOLIrTLE.X
Poor Dooliale has been considerably re
vived by the late accession to the Johnson
Harty in the Senate, and yesterday treated that
body to one of the finest eulogies that have
been pronounced upon his distinguished mas
ter since the latter's last public speech. Doo
little's horror at his beloved Johnson being
called "unprincipled,", was very well done,
but it does not compare with the grand cli
max which follows. Doolittle has been blest
with an intimate acquaintance , with Johnson
for three years! Such a privilege could
not, of course, fail to produce the most
beautiful results. Doolittle has been per
mitted to see Johnson in all his, most tin
adorned beauty, and the result has been such
a revelation of dazzling purity, of lofty no
bility, of grandeur indescribable, that Doo
little feels that, like St. Paul, caught up:in to
the third heavens, he has seen things "that
are not lawful to utter."
Nevertheless, h 6 is permitted to give the
outer world some glimpses of this inner
Paradise. Not only is Andrew Johnson "an
upright and an honest man," but he "never in
his life—no, neverrnever, never, met a
more honest man !" Doolittle warms with
his subject, and gives the Senate a .peep of
Johnson illuminated. He informs the, Senate
that "ue came into the world"—not Dbolittle,
but Johnson—"lighted up with the stamp of
God's nobility—honesty !" It seems like a
great pity that this light should have been so
long kept under a bushel. it is certainly to
be regretted that Mr. Johnson should have
taken such pains to make the country believe
that he was u. coarse, vulgar, violent
demagogue, recklessly usurping au
thority, opposing the will of the
people, trampling down everything that
checks or hinders his personal schemes, and
outraging public decency by his language, his
associations and his acts. It is unfortunate
that this beautiful idol of Doolittle's should
have so disfigured itself before the people.
It is a pity that we can only know the real
Johnson when this high priest of his deigns
to come out and reveal him to the common
people. The Johnson that the people know
is so different and so very unpleasant. Happy
Doolittle! Who would not be a Doolittle?
THE nEvasincir LAW.
AB is generally known, the State Legisla
ture, at its late session, passed a Registry
Law to govern future elections in this city.
The plain and solo object of the law was to
prevent frauds,and it affected all parties alike
to the extent that they might choose to tam
per with the purity of the ballot-box. As the
Republican party do not made a trade of
fraud they rejoiced in the enactment of the
law. Not so the Democrats, who saw fore
shadowed the weakening of Fourth Ward
influence and the breaking up of wholesale
rascalities at the election polls. They have
accordingly taken steps to defeat this whole
some enactment, and they have commenced
a suit in equity against City Councils, Alder
men and City Commissioners to restrain them
from carrying out the law.
Prominent among the complainants is Mr.
Charles Brown, of Tinder-box. "one hundred
and ninety," and fierce Secession fame. Mr.
Brown, after removing to Delaware, to be as
near as possible to his Southern friends during
the war, returns to Philadelphia to attempt
to nullify laws that aro made in the interests
of fair play and common honesty. The case
is to come before the Supreme Court at Har
risburg on the 27th instant, and it will be ar
gued by Furman Sheppard, Henry M. Phil
lips, George W. Biddle and William L.
Hirst, Esqrs., upon the part of the plaintifll3.
At a recent meeting of the Republican
City Executive Committee, the management
of the case for the defence was placed in the
bands of District Attorney Mann. Mr. Mann
has associated with himself William Henry
Rawle, Esq., and the two gentlemen named
vs ill enter the lists in opposition to the counsel

WEL& OD COLLEGE'
The decision of Mr. Justice Read in the
equity case of "John A. Bvelay et. al. versus
the City of Philadelphia," which is given in
full in another part of this' paper, will com
mend itself to the attention of every reader.
After the removal of President Smith, several
leading citizens, among whom was Mr. John
A. Barclay, the sole surviving executor of the
Will of Mr. Girard, commenced a suit in
equity against the city of Philadelphia, as the
Trustee under the Will, to compel it to va
cate the trust, and they further demanded that
a certain sum of money should be appropria
ted by the city to enable them to prosecute
the case, the ground for this suit being
predicated upon the action of the Board of
Directors in the indecent removal of the
President and alleged general mismanage
ments of the Trust.
Judge Read, while deciding that the ques
tion was entirely one for legislative treatment,
and not for judical action, and therefore be
yond the control of the Courts, does not spare
the Board of Directors for their conduct in
respect to the removal of Major Smith. He
says very emphatically while speaking of the
impeachment, trial, conviction and removal
of Major Smith, that all was done "in one
breath," and he makes no secret of his belief
that this unexpected action was the result of
a conspiracy, whether in caucus or not he
was unable to say. In speaking of the in
quiries instituted . by the Investigating Com
mittee of City Councils, Judge Read says—
and his utterances will be echoed by all who
are familiar with the subject—that he "is
convinced if this investigation had preceded
the hasty and impudent action of the Board,
Major Smith would not have been removed
from the office of President, but would at
at this moment been at the head of the insti
tution."
There is one other point in Justice Read's
decision that we have barely time to refer to
after a hurried glance over the paper; but it
is a point the importance of which is not
overrated by the Justice, and which has long
engaged the attention of intelligent and con
scientious citizens. We refer to the duplica
tion of offices in the hands of a single citizen.
The Act of Consolidation, and the supple
ments thereto, enumerate what officers of the
city shall, be debarred from holding places of
trust or profit within the gift of the city,
and Justice Read holds that the inference is
plain that city officials, whether of high or
low degree, should not be found acting as
members of the Board of Directors. To this
expression of opinion there will be a general
amen.
Justice Read evidently thinks, and we
think, and ninety-nine out of every hundred
voters think, that it is a most extraordinary
and deplorable condition of things, when
there cannot be selected out of the eight hun
dred thousand inhabitants of Philadelphia,
eighteen citizens of undoubted purity and
honesty, unimpeachable intelligence and un
questioned freedom from entangling alliances,
to administer this important trust without
scandal to the management, discredit to the
city at large, or damage to the interests of the
orphans who are made the object of the splen
did charity of the benevolent founder of the
College.
Governor Geary has announced his inten
tion of approving the law, passed at.the last
session of the Legislature, extending the Me
chanics' Lien Law to repairs, and providing
for the speedy trial of cases where liens have
been filed. This new law will go into effect
on the first of August, and as there• is now a
very large amount of alterations and repairs
going on in Philadelphia, builders and pro
perty-owners should make themselves ac
quainted with the provisions of the revised
law.
It is a great satisfaction to the people of
Pennsylvania that the proposed new party of
Chase and Company has not the slightest
chance of obtaining a foothold in this State.
Not a single Republican newspaper has a
good word to say for it. On the contrary,
all denounce it and renew their pledges to the
party and the principles that have made them
triumph in the•past. Even papers that have
been considered favorable to Mr. Chase's
nomination,heretofore, have dropped him,and
denounce him as warmly as the others. if
he runs for the Presidency it must be as the
candidate of the Democracy.

Don't shoot that frog, that croaking frog,
That hides himself beneath yon log ;
Though fat his hinder legs and good,
You'll soil your trowsers in the mud.
Don't climb that tree to steal that neat !
You'll spoil your coat and tear your vest,
And tease the birds, and smash the eggs,
And tumble down and break your lege !
But If to spoil your clothes you wish,
You'd better go and try to fish,
And lose your footing, and fall in,
And soak yourself through to the skin
And If you soil your coat and vest,
And scratch and tear your Sunday best,
Remember at our splendid store
We'll fit you out with plenty more.

auses of the Civil War Explained by
a flatly's—Progress In the study of
English, and Use of the Language.
By mail from Japan we have flea dated at
Yokohama on the 14th of March, reporting the
progress of the civil war, with the following
highly interesting account of the exciting causes
of that event, written in English by a native.
Native History of the War.
[From the Japan (Yokohama) Times. March 14.1
It Is now about more than about 250 years To
kugawa has been Taikun in Japan.
Since the European came here in Japan there
were- two parties In this country, the first party
bas been thinking of shutting all the parts and
not to receive the said European, and on the con
trary the second has been thinking of oping the
ports to trade with them namely Mikado and
some large Daimios belonging to the first, during
Tokugawa Taikun belonging to the second.
But Tokugawa Taikun has made an arrange
ment with the Europeans to trade with them
after it was agreed by Mikado. By these circum
stances, the large Daimios (Satsuma, Chloshla
and Tom) told to Mikado what Tokugawa Taikan
did was very bad for this country, and each of
the above Damios did not like to be under the
service of Tokugawa Taikun, but as their fami
lies were kept in Yeddo by the Taikun, they
could not do still what they will.
&fore about 6 years an English gentleman was
Trilled by the men of Satsuma on the road Na
inamugl on the way from Yokohama to Yedo,
and it was said there that the Japanese and En
glish would be at war unless a certain sum of
money was paid to England try Japan, and the
Japanese people, among others, the people in
Yedo were very afraid of it, and by that time the
above said families of Daimios went away to
their own countries, and their Daimios were no
thing afraid against Tokugawa Taikan any
more, and they now could perform what they
It speaks of itself that Mikado is the headman
in Japan. But he had no power to do anything
for this country, for Taiknn has got more power
than him, and he thought it was a pity for him.
The large Daimios knew his own circumstances,
and they advised to him that he had better take
off the power of Taikun at the first opportunity.
It appears to be very dutiful to Mikado, but their
inner purposes are the different natures!
As the last Tokugawa Taikan thought that he
might not perform the public business for the
government in his country, because there were
many large Daimios which he could not com
=mand something any longer he related to Mikado
to give back to the said Alikado the title of
Taikun (Chiogun.)
By that time the large Daimios advised the
Mikado to permit it to the said Taikun at this
opportunity, and thus he was no more Taikun
and he has returned from Kioto to Osaka, and
some governors in Kiel°, named by him, have
been sent back to Osaka. And somelarge Kngea
and the Daimios, namely Satsuma, Toss, Owed,
'
Eebizen Aki and Chiosin have been taken by
Mikado to do and command everything for this
country.
Afterwards it was commanded by Mikado to
the Prince Tokugawa that he would give back
to Mikado the five places, Yokahama, namely,
Nagasaki, Hakodate, Hlogo and Osaka, and
the power to make the Japanese money and
something also, that he would come in Kioto' on
the 28th January !eat, and on the 27th the same
month the Prince has exhausted and sent his
armies as the first attendants for his journey to
Kioto, and they have been passing Yedo and
lonshma on their way to Kioto.
The garrison of Stamina have been watching
the above two places to stop the armies of Prince
of Tokugawa. It was said there by the Satsuma
men that they were commanded by Mikado to stop
the said armies, and it was said by the men of
Prince Tokugawa that they were commanded by
Mikado to go np to Moto, and the both parties
have been fighting there, and by the battles in the
two places the men of Prince Tokugawa have
got the victory.
On the 80th January last there was a large bat,
tle between Prince Tokugawa and Satsuma in
Sakai on the other way from Kioto to Osaka.
But this battle the Prince Aids has been taken
by Prince Tokugawa as the first general and he
commanded the army chief,and the DalmlosTodo
and all the other armies which belonged to him;
and they were more stronger than Satsuma's.
The Stasuma-men knew that they could not
fight with the said Aids without any help or
trick, and thus they have brought from Kioto
the colors of Mikado, on which the sun and
moon were figured and ag dust which nobody
could shoot off with any gun or bow, as it was
the custom in Japan from ancient times, and to
which tbey r must be obediently.
By this colors flying some of Daimios thought
that it was right to help the Satsuma-men, for
this color has been taken to them, and, among
others, Todo came back to Satsuma-men and shot
at the armies of Aids, and great numbers have
been killed on the part of the said Aids.
As this was the ruin of many eople of Prince
Tokugawa ho came back to Yedo,and the city
Osaka has been plundered by the Satsuma and
Chlosiumen, and many southern and western
Deludes have capitulated to Satsuma he Mikado.
And they do not know when they shall have
peace again.

The Merv/ York Diener Market.
[From the New York Herald. of Today. ,
Mar 18.—The gold market has been quiet to-day, and
the fluctuations. were from 1313( to 1284. with the closing
transactions at 13934. There was a moderate borrowing
demand for coin, and loans were made at 334g5 per cent.
for carrying . The gross clearings amounted to 14,276,000;
the gold balances to 12,006,664. and the currency balances
to 12.J.08,749. The imports of specie at this port from
foreign ports last week were only 10.188, making a
total of 6;2,875,180 since the first of • Jan.
way. The Assiatant•Treaeurer sold about $300.000 in coin
anti purchased a more than squat amount of seven-thirty
notes. The undertone of the gold market is very firtn,and
Its unyielding tendency is strengthened by the drain of
specie to Europe; but the speculative transactions are on
a limited reale. and there is very little disposition Shawn
to bare operations, either for a rise or a fall,;on the pre.
sect or prospective political situation, either as regards
imreatbreent or otherwise.
The next engrossing question of the day will be that of
the finans es. or more particularly the currency, the tariti
and the internal revenue. Already the attention of Con.
Kress is turning in this direction. as is shown by the new
tax hill reported to the House of Representatives by the
Committee of Ways and Rearm as well as the speech of
Mr. Garfield on his premature scheme for the gradual re
gureptitm of specie payments. The tariff and the tax bill
should, be ro amended as to produce the largest amount
of revenue with the 'cut suffering and inconve
nience to the v.eofie. and the expenditures should be care
fully adjusted to the revenue end vice versa, so that the
country 11311 T not be unnecessarily burdened with taxation
and that the public credit may be protected and
proved. As both Rouses have adjourned until the
2r,th instant, however, we have a blank week before us at
Washington.
The btock Market opened this morning with an ap
pearance of firullese, which Preyed deceptive; for not
only was the improvement of liciu per cent. upon the
latest prices of Saturday FOOll lost. but at the close quota.
4
Bens were 4,;;', lower than at the commencent of bud.
here.
there was a very active and buoyant market for go
vernment securities alt day. and a general iv:trance of
rer.3‘, took place in prices. The sharer's° of per cent.
on nve-tn - enties in London eine° Saturday undoubtedly
stimulated tbe improvement here, anti this was of course
due to the reassuring effect upon public opinion in Eu•
rope of the vote of the Senate on impeachment. We can
have no curer barometer than this, and no more eatisfac•
tory evidence of the beneficial influence upon the public
credit of the, tenaenatioL of the prolonged suspense
with %%Melt the reeult of the trial has been awaited. Both
the home and the foreten investment demand have been
greatly quickened. audio view of the prevailing monetary
case and the fact that governmentS are still the cheapest
securities in the country a steady advance in them on
both sides of the Atlantic is probable for some months to
come. The purchases on domestic account were mainly
of the five-twenties of 1867, while the foreign demand was
confined to ten.fortiea, sixes of 1881 and flvetwenties of
1862 and 1865.
(From the New York World.l
Met 18 —The extreme ease in the money marketthas
commenced to influence the Government bond market, the
demand for all the leading bonds baying been unusually
active at advanced quotations. The stastnation in other
branches of business anti the dullness of the stock market
are turning the current of investment into Govern
ment bonds, and this investment demand is likely
to be followed by speculative transactions which
are expected to advance prices to the
high figures of last year. , The five-twenty
bonds of 1864 have been bought in heavy amounts for the
last week by stock Operators, who talk of running them
from 10734 to 1134, the price they were selling at about a
year ago. The whole issue of 1864 s is only 1100.000,000,
of which onesbalf is registered and the balance coupons,
and as the dividends are paya.tle in May and November,
they are a favorite security and are held largely for
investment by New York capitalists. The Phila
delphia and Roston markets are-bare of theni. In
coven-thirties the Assistant Treasurer bought 81380,000 at
10736 to day, which were all that could be obtained at
that price, and the conventions on Friday, May 15. were
81 Me 950; on Saturday. 11.043,650, and to4lav, 81.820.000
aking the total of Government purchases and conver
sions of seven-thirties over 86.000,000 in three nays.
There aro no large lots to be obtained at present
quotations, 1075tl to 10714. The advance in the
whole list ranged from 4 to '
percent.. and the
laxge dealers are buying freely at the quotations while
selling only to supply their regular customers The ad.
venue In the London market on receipt of the news that
the iroteachment of the President had failed has given
strength to the upward movement- here. Items of the
Germ an bankers received orders to buy the tive.twentlee
of 1862 and the 1865 of both Issues, also seven-thirties, for
the purpose of holding to convert into the new bonds of
1868. The ten-forties are strong..
The Assistant Treasurer bought 1350.000 of sven
thirties at 10734: sold $1300,000 in gold; disbursed 52.121.000
of three per cent, certificates, and 162,000 currency. Call
loans are easy at 6to 8 Per cent. with exceptions at 4 per
cent., and prime paper is taken at 6,14 MI per cent. The
banks aro lending at 6 per cent.
The foreign exchange market is dull, and the demand is
limited. Rates aro without change, but weak.
The gold market opened at 1M4%, declined to 1393, and
clotted at 159)4 at P. 54..' The I ales paid for carrying
were 4.43.4. 834 and 5 per cent. After the board adjourned
the market was firm at 11191 i to 189)4.

Speculation on the Vice-Presidency
The Impeachment Investigation.
[Bpeclal Despatch to the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin.]
WA:4111%1 . 05, May 13, impeach
ment excitement has pretty much died out, the
remaining interest which is felt attaching to the
investigation which the Managers are making,
and the probable effect the acquittal will have
upon the nomination for Vice President, at Chi
cago, and the prospects of the Republican candi
dates at the fall election.
The Managers did not bold a meeting during
this morning, owing perhaps to the absene,e of
Mr. Stevens, who Is not as well as usual to-day.
It is understood that the leading spirits in the
investigation are Messrs. Butler and Stevens, as
sisted, in the capacity of a volunteer detective,
by Mr. Covode, who has had great experience in
that line.
Mr. Logan has gone to Chicago, and Boutwell
and Wilson are more sensible of the difficulties
in the way of pushing the inquiry to any de
cisive result, even if their suspicions are correct.
It is intended to hold a meeting during the see
slop of the House this afternoon, when it it is
expected to examine Mr. Wooley and several
other witnesses.
Senator Henderson was on the floor of the
House a short time, conversing with a member
of the Missouri delegation. It is understood that
the Committee to investigate the correspondence
.with reference to this Senator's vote on impeach
ment elicited no facts beyond what was already
known, and that their report will not reflect in
juriously upon the action of either party.
Mr. Henderson was requested to appear before
the Committee at their meeting this morning;
but for some cause, failed to do so, and therefore
the Investigation of the committee is not con
cluded, as was intended.

The Chicago. Convention.
igyedal Despatch to the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin.]
CHICAGO, May 19.—The delegates to the Na
tional Convention have nearly all arrived. Every
train, yesterday and this morning, came in
heavily loaded. Excitement is running very
high, and, amid so many conflicting statements,
it is next to an impossibility to get at the true
condition of affairs.
Very little Is said about the nomination for
President, it being conceded on all sides that
Grant will be nominated by acclamation.
A very bitter fightis going on among delegates
to secure the nomination of Vice President. The
friends of Governor Fenton, of New York,
are hero in full force, including many noted
lobbyists from Albany, and are working
industriously to secure the success
of their candidate. They appear;
however, to have no real strength among the
Northern delegates, outside of their own state.
Their only hope seems to be to secure the vote
of many of the Southern States, and to ac
complish this they proffer large sums of money
to aid the Republican cause in these States.
This plan has not succeeded very well. Money
is furnished and great efforts are made to get up
a strong local feeling in favor of Fenton. Yea
terdaY everything indicated that the fight would
be between Wade, Colfax and Ilamlln, with the
prospects very favorable to the former.
The arrivals last evening, however, were very
unfavorable to Colfax, and this morning he ap
pears to have less chances of success than yes
terday.
Senator Wilson has some strength among the
New England delegation, and in a few southern
States, but his prospects are not even medium.
The New England delegates arc very much divi
ded between Wilson, Hamlin, Buckingham and
Wade.
Efforts were made to harmonize the different
factions last night, but they failed, and the result
is that each State will go into the Convention
supporting its own candidate.
The New Hampshire delegation held a meeting
this morning and decided to support Wade. The
Pennsylvania delegation are also very much
divided, and after the first ballot for Curtin, the
friends of Wade claimed that they will carry
three-fourths of the delegates.
Both the Cameron and Forney factions are
using their Influence to bring about such a result.
The Northwestern delegations are divided be
tween Wade and Colfax, with a strong prepon
derance in favor of the former.
On the whole the indications this morning are
that the fight will be narrowed down between
Wade and Hamlin. The latter's Mena have no
organization, hence the chances are against
them. Mr. ade's friends, who are alert and
working industriously, claim this morning that
he will get one hundred and seventy-five votes
on the first ballot.
The most important part of the Convention
work, that of framing the platform, has been
very little discussed as yet. •
The Eastern delegates come very strong in fa
vor of the adoption of a resolution denouncing
the course of those Republican Senators who
voted for the acquittal of the President, but this
does not meet with much success or encourage
ment from the West.
A resolution will undoubtedly be adopted sus..
taining the impeachment and standing by the
acts of Congress, although there is every pros
pect that there will be a stormy time in the Con
vention over the resolution reading the seven
Republican Senators who sustained the Presi
dent, out of the patty.
General Logan and Senator Thayer are both
here advocating such a resolution.
The Soldiers' and Sailors' Convention will not
make any nomination for Vico President, tor
fear of coming in conflict with the Republican
Convention. They formed in a procession of
about 5,000 this morning at the Court House,
and marched to Turner Hall, where the ( Con
vention is held.
'Many prominent men were in the ranks, and
great enthusiasm was manifested along the route.
The Wisconsin eagle, "Old Abe," was Carried In
the front of the procession. At one time the
procession sang, amid much excitement, "Old
Grimes Is dead."
Governor Fairchild was chosen temporary
Chairman, and it is thought that General Sickles
will bo made permanenrChairman.

TORONTO, May 19.—An order was received
from Ottawa last night, for the volunteer forces

PARIS, May 19.—A telegram from Now York
announcing the acquittal of Prrsident Johnson.
on the impe zchment oracle, was received here
late on Saturday night. Nearly ell the morning
papers of Sunday contained editorials on the
subject.
The following is an epitome of these articles
expressing the opinions of leading
o journals.,
The Temps (Ocmc3.mc) says Johnson has
been saved by legal forms orly, but has been de
end in the mind cf the country.
The. Journal des Debates (Orleans) says while
Johnson is aequitt - d, the vote was such as to
nder him powerless hereafter.
La Liberie (Radical Oppoil;'.on) says simply,
that the verdict shows that liberty is thl best
guarantee of justice.
The Consliiulionnel (Tee-official Imperialist)
regards the vote as fatal 'o the Rad'cal party.
The Epoque, which has t3en ern-acted to im
peachment from beginning to end, blames the
Republicans for attempting to remove the Execu
tive on grounds so slight, and says a great pc.
litical party Corld ,not have more clumsily lost
its prei;lge.
The Prase (Anstro-Catholic) ventures no de
cided opinion on the ILTII*9 of the qucat'on, but
confines its remarks to admiratlon of the vitality
of republican instiinslon, which permits the
Chief Magistrate of forty millions of lir °pie to
be brought to trial without bloodsh-d or national
disquiet.
