The trial of President Johnson under the Iropcachineut resolutiou cf tlie House in still progressing. Since oar last issue the Senate adopted a resolution giving all the managers and counsel iu the case the privilege of filing written or printed argunieuts, or of making oral arguments in the case. The gentlemen concerned -agreed to avail themselves qf the latter "privilege, and the consequence i that the od has been postponed it least one week. It is now presumed that Tuesday next will see the end of the cafe, and that until that time we must accept A. J. as he It, the President, instead of the great cufiteJ, as he certainly will be, if justice is douc him. Of the necessity of ihis much speechifying, we have our doubts; hut it may probably be a3 well to let the public see, in all their bearings, the merits of the case, as they will be ably set forth, by learned and distinguished jurists, both for snd agaiat the President. After a close following up of the evi denca ou both sides, we do cot see the remotest possibility of an acquittal on any one of the eleven articles of Impeach jpeat. Several of our Democratic cotem rporaries pretend to look for an acquittal; but the lTrryihey bellow about executive privilege and the constitutional rights ol A. J. President, in connection with the trial, shows plainly enough that they do cot believe the doctrine they teach. JJthers, again, of the Democratic editors. ul kniong these the notorious " Brick Pomroy," stand prominent, see that A. J.'a treachery will be mo?t deservedly punish ed by impeachment. These are denying all political connection with him; and are so honey combing the foundation of the party, as to permit him to fall quietly through into that oblivion which every .sense of right indicates to be his. .It is a hard fate indeed which awaits Andrew Johnson ; but it is the fate which should await all, who, fcr personal ad v aceirent or aaranlisement sell them selve?, and attempt to sell those who made them what they are, to those who. i; times that tries meu's pouI?, did every . thing to destroy our country' liberties, .n ujt a thing to save them. The trea e n to party so boldly exhibited by An drew Juhoaon was a savory morsel uuder tr.ii tongue of Copperhead Democrats Nnr-h, asd rr. !rif;ve rel-eh S..u:h, but the traitor himself prced to be too nau scoua a uoee even for these to swallow. After the cry of the hour over the con viction, and which will only be indulged for the political capital it premise?, the Democracy will bury A. J. among the rontemptible dead things cf the party the opposition to the war, the aid and comfort famished to the rebs, and the thousand and one -other mean things which they are now attempting to hide away from the recollection or the people. No man was ever elected to a position with more eutbusiasm on the part of his elector, than was Andrew Johnson to the Vice-Presidency ; and no man will ever I 9 kicked out of a position, to whose fate t! electors for the time being will feci incline! to shout a more enthusiastic Aiscu.

On the ISth of April inst, a horse was etolea fiom George J acob Miller, of Jackson township, , from which time, until a few days ago.' when he was discovered in the possession cf David Marvin, of Sussex County, X. J., nothing was heard of his whereabouts.' Oo Tuesday Henry E. Marvio, a son in law of Mr. Miller, was arrested, and charged with the theft. He had a hear ing before Esquire Recs on the came day, who held him to bail in the bum of 1,000 for Lis appearance at Court, Ezra Marvin, Esq., father of the accused, bo oooiiog bail.

K&y AuiCtg the distinguished anivalj iu town, during Jjst week;. we noticed that of Joiah p. lietricb, Esq., the dig uified ted affable Revenue Collector of the 12th Congressional District cf IV We were pleased to see the Collector looking so well, and to learn that, though we were favored with none of his smiles, his countenance wore a continued sub dued smile during the whole of his so journ here. The Collector was accompa nied by one of his aids; and rumor has it, that the object of his visit was to dis cuss, with the faithful, the propriety ol holding another Graud Wigwam Conven tion about the Dog days. Iu view of the impeachment prospect, it is presumed that, by some such move as this, the pros pect of the " Bread and Butter Brigade which now look squally euough, may be somewhat amended. But we fear it will not work, as " clubs and sloues " are em ployed by large politician, as well as 'small boys," in ''knocking the best ap pies from the trees," aud Josiah's position is really a luscious looking fruit. Cabinet Making. We notice that a number of our coteua poraries,both Republican and Democratic, have gone into the cabinet making bust ness. on quite an extensive scale. They have Lhored so heartily and rapidly in the work, that they have already got to gether several complete salts ready fur Mr. Wade when he seaU himself in the Presidential chair. As old Ben. is no slouch, when hewing, slashing and fitting up is necessary, we opine that it would be just as-well to ease up a little, aud re what he says and docs Tor himself. When Johnson retires to his goose and lapboard in Tennessee, it will Le time enough to see wht is wanted; and if Ben. Wade isn't the man to suit himself and the country Letter than any one else can do it, we are much mistaken. Of oce thing we mav all rest assured the new furni ture will be made cf the toughest and bestsea.'oncd materia! the country nlTcrds. Not a beard will be used that has not been well tried and proved just the thing, and not a nail but what is just as it should be Let us let eld Ben. alone. SsaT The Festival held by the ladies of tho Presbyterian Church, on Thursday aud Friday evenings last. ia.G. II. Mil ler's Bic-rerooto, djwn town, proved, we are p'ensed to learn, a "successful opera tion. Quite a nice little sum was netted on the occasion. We presume that mere efforts of the same kind will follow, and be alike successful. Certainly there can be no more pleasant way of spending an evening, and no more worthy way of be stowing our spare means, than in beauti fying and furnishing a house dsvotei to the Giver of ail good gifts. t& Mechanics, builders, farmers, and others, should not fail to read the card of Mr. Joseph Mntlack, in another column.

' Our pleasant neighbor of the Democrat must have been in a particularly amiable mood towards himself, ourself, " the w orld and all the rest of raankjuid,; wticn he penned the articlu which appeared in his paper of last week, over J he heading quoted above. Like a lively lull on the rampanage, he cavorted, and jumped, and kicked up and butted at an amusing rite scattering his froth on all sides, and making personal ex positions which would better hive been left unexposed, but reaily injuring no one that we have heard of lo any aluming extent, unices it was himself. "Double dealing." " stigmatize" aud 'malign," are words which he employs with a perfect racine?, in ciakicj public Liu impression that we are not pleased with the course he sees " Gl to pursue in the Mon roe Democrat" But words meqn nothing unless ihey stand as the representatives of ideas based upon matters of fact; and aa we have no disposition to cavil with tho course which our neighbor sees fit to pursue, but, on the contrary, are so deeply in love with it, that we would not have him alter it, a single jot or tittle, on any account, theic particular words, in his employment of them, become but vcrricst nonsense. Again; he tells us he has nothing against us. We en tertain the idea that he really loves us, and have no doubt that if we should happen to meet him in enthusiastic France, in the ex uberance of that love, ho would have hib arms about our neck before we were aware of it. Agiin: he tells us that he was in the publishing business before he came to Stroudsburg, and thinks he knows his bui ncss. The.-c arc itema ct news for which we. fscl unJer the most prufjund obli gation. The public hereabout?, end i;mre particularly his own co-pirtizsn-, have often expressed themselves to us as believing, from the evidence furni&lied in his weeklv heb- dcminal, that he was but row making his first essay in the walks ct editorial and pub libhiug lire; and, one of his most particular Democratic friends, has f:en apologized to us for h;s ehtirt eoriiiugs, eclely oo tho score of his professional verdancy. "Give him a clur.ee" has often mid this friend "and he will come out all right." He, also tells us that he is " not the son of a Governor" onJ that he "never lived on the charity of the town." Wliiie, that he 13 not the une and did not do the other, detect no'hing from, neither would a contrary state of ficts add to, his manly reputation.

A FIENDISH CONSPIRACY, -v Sit Men Enter into a Written Agreement to Wreck and Rob a Pay Train on the . Jeffersonville Railroad-Arrest of the Conspirators. From the JVric Albany (Ind.) Cummer cialAprilTZ. - One of the most horrible conspiracies tLat we Lave ever heard of had its denoue ment yesterday. Some ten days ago sis men, two of whom we do Dot mention, for the reason that they have not Lcen arrest ed, the other four named Hughes, Kinney Ruck and Durkett, and a seventh named Collier, entered into a written conspiracy to wreck and rob the pay train on, the Jeffersonville Railroad. . , The particulars cf this conspiracy, ' t Dear we can gather them, are fSrout s follows: A written agreement . waf drawn op, settiu-? fourth the plan of thr robbery. This plan contemplated an the throwing of the pay train Ircta iMt track at a point near Slate Cat, seme tfffl miles out from Jeffersonville, the mardjr, if necessary, of all those upon the train. and the robbery of the paymaster's safe of its contents, which it was thoueht would be from twenty-five to thirty thous sand dollars. , - :? The article of agreement was of the most terrible character. ; It bound eaeh conspirator to commit murder as well as robbery. It also stipulated that if any of the conspirators were wounded in the af fair so as to be unable to get away his companions were to kill Lira and thus pat it out of his powerto inform against them. It was further acreed how the money was to be divided, the share of each being specified. The train was to Le tnrowa from the track by removing or loosening oue or more of the rails. It was alo agreed that if there were more than the usual number of persons with the train that the conspirators were to fire upon and kill them jut as the train was reach ing the place where it was to be wrecked. The details of the whole affair were sst fourth in the most eoncise snd distinct. manner. f The feventh eonapir?for mentioned above. Collier, icseens its'.iie irui.tc itd at the crime contemplated, and gave in formation of the conspiracy to the Super intendent of the road, Horace Seytr, Kq. It was at once determined to send oat the pay train on the usual day, snd to add to it a Laggage car, in which several well armed and courageous men were to be placed, prepared and instructed to ehe;t down the conspirators at sight. Uurkett, one of the conspirators, was a brakeman on the train, snd when the baggage can was hitched on Monday night he became alarmed, and immediately in formed his co-eonpirators what had been done, and they, fearing that they wouM be overmatched in numbers, abandoned the conspiracy. It is proper to say that the conspiratori had solemnly sworn tf kill any of their number who might be tray the plot. Fortunately, the human nature of one of them revolted at fhe hor ror ; he gave information of the plot, and a wholesale murdsr and robbery was thus prevented. Yesterday forenoon. Hughes (whose parents are very respectable and live at Bedford), Kinney, Ruck, Burkett aid Collier were arrested at Jeffersonvillfr the Utter to be held as a witness. The officers were after the other two, and tkey were probably arrested last night. Altogether this is one of the most hor rible conspiracies we have ever heard of. The jdacc selected for the accomphshmenl of the bloody designs of the Sends was a retired locality, well snited to the pur poses of the bloody villains.
