PRESIDENT JOHNSON FOUND
GUILTY.
. Th substance o?n dispatch from Wash
inglon to-day informs us that tlie Court
met tliia morning and vo cd on the 11th ar
ticle, on which Mr. Johnsou wan found
guilty. The Court then, without consider
ing the other Articles, adjourned until the
aiith iast. This action will make Wude
1'rotident, God save the couutry now.
IMl'EA CllMKNT. .
Tlic wiek has pissed along so far in
its course, oud A. J. still situ undisturb.
ed in the White House.
Though the Ilurap has devoted its
lest efforts to forcing itupeachinent
through the Senate, the uncertainties of
the result has delayed the vote und
the cauldron still continues to boil.
The IIi;;h Old Court meets again to
day; but there is much doubt abuut the
vote being taken. Theio is a strong
probability that another adjournment
will be made, as the National Black ahd
Tan Convention meets at Chicago on
the 20th, and influences may be found
there that will whip the conscioatious,
doubtful and wavering into line.
Among all the expedients that have
becD tried to bring about a verdict, it
t-ccius a litllo strange that " Gentle An
na " aud her " barbaric yawp," have
not been heard iu the chambers of Sen.
atorial wisdom.
That the revolutionists should neg
lect so strong an influence is greatly to
be wondered at, but as whom the gods
Would destroy, they first craze," so it is
possible that in their extreme anxiety
for conviction the Jacobins overlook the
. easiest and most obvious means.
Democrats really feel very little iu
terest in what, as it stands, they regard
lucrely as a family quarrel, well know
ing that whatever the result, it can but
benefit them.
The Radicalshave bought the Im
peachmcot elephant, let them oaie for
him. It's none of our funeral.
On the 20th, the farce of a Presiden
tial nomination it to be gone through
with at Chicago. Washburue has
trained his steed well, and that nomina
tion is a foregone conclusion 7 tho real
struggle will be over the Vice Presiden
cy. New York presents Reuben Fen
ton, so-called, who will be a fit compan
ion for Ben Butler and the carpet-b ag
tiers from Dixie. Pennsylvania favors
Curtin, but we think he is too much of
a gentleman for the position. Fetiton
enits, and would dovetail into Washing
ton society, even better than drunken,
cursing Bud Wade, who is the candi
date of the nigger.suffragians of Ohio
One thiug is certain that whoever
may be the candidates, if we fight them
square upon the real issues, and with a
man who has a straight and clean Dem
ocratic record, who is in favor of allow,
ing the white laborer the richt to live
at least, we shall certainly be victorious'

iSTThe N. Y. Tribune informs its
readers that Andrew Johnson is the first
president who ever undertook to remove
an officer whom the Senate had decided
. should not be removed. This h not true
During President Jackson' administra
tion Mr. Duane, Secretary of the Treas
ury, was removed because he refused to
ckrry out the policy of the adiuiuUtrtion
Daniel Webster opposed the removal of
Mr. Duane in a lengthy speech, but that
gentleman whilst disapproving ot tho re
woval, admitted, nevertheless, that the
power of removal existed ii the Presidcut
according to the established construction
ut the Constitution.

fTlio following aro tho resolutions
passed at tho railroad meeting huld in
ot. Mary s on tho 4th instant 1
- Whereat, It is well known that the
citizeus ot Hullalo desire rail road com-
rauuication With tho coal.fields of North

Wlici'ta. There is now in mnn. r
construction a road called the Buffalo

intention ot wli-ch is communication

and easiest of construction, which pre

Tho vote on impeachment which was
to have been taken on Tuesday last, has
been postponed until to day, when it
may bo postponed until after tho Chi
cago Convention or possibly until alter
the next Presidential election.
Tho Tribune's special tuys :
" Senator Sherman spoke tor convic
tion on the third, eighth and eleventh
articles- Thou followed Stewart, from
Nevada, Williams, from Oregon, and
Edmouds, from Vermont all of whom
rocorded their names iu favor of couvic
tion on all the articles.
James W. Grimes, of Iowa, came
next. He spoke for Radical Iowh,
against all the articles, and earned the
applause of men who never before sav
aught in him to applaud. The Repub
licans were not di all surprised that' old
Grimes was dead.'
Kansas followed tor conviction thro'
Po.neroy.
Hendricks, of Indiana, against all.
Howe, of Wisconsin, proiiouuced for
all the articles but the Gist.
Morill, of Maine, succeeded him.
His was another vote for all, without
reservation. ,,
Doolittle and Garrett Davis spoke
against all the urticles.
Henderson followed, and great anxie.
ty was felt as to his position. Word
came that be spoke against the first and
second articles, and so on up to the
nictb, leaving his position on the re
maining three undefined.
Lvinan Trumbull, th nfvt
denounced the' whole trial. It would
not, he said, stand a moment in i.nu
justice's court in the country."
The limes special says :
"A prominent Senator. lioori

of Senators who will oto for acquittal :

was me auoged illness of Senator How.
ard, of Michigan. Tho health of
other Senators is also said to be bad. A
dispatch from Washington on ",,n
says that Senator Grimes was on that
day attacked with sickness, he is howev
er, improving. Senator Conkling is ul
so confined to his lodgings. The sick-
oes of Senator Howard still continues,
and a further postponement of the final
vote on the impeachment subject we re.
gard as almost certaiu.
