J. P. Tho mas, L. D. Childs and J. G Gibbes, in be half of tbe committee, -to the House of Re presertitives, and referred to the Recon struetion Committee. It has attracted some attention trom conservative republicans. It is thought that good may result from tbis Respectful Remonstrance. In regard to impeachment, the Express of'the 9th says: The public pulse is somewhat excited as to the prob a ble result. but the prepooder ance of opinion seems to be upon the side of acquittal The Star says: The dealers in impeach meni stock made a tremendous rilly last evening, and for a time had -it all their own way at the leading hotels and other points where transactions in the market are car ried on. The friends of the President, who were supposed to know a thing or two, were betting wild on acquittal-two, ten, andone hundred to one. Later at night the bulls rallied, swepit everything and professed to 66 particularly anxious to find any party disposed to bet on acQuittah To-day it has been a see-saw operation. - 1h a well-authenticated conversation, the President is represented to have said, in an swer to a question regarding Bingham's sug gestion, that he-would not obey the Senate's mandate, "Why should I not obey if the forms of the Constitution are complied with? If Senators do not act justly, they are responsible not to me but to the people. The people, who hold the sovereign power, have placed me over one department, with all its duties and responsibilities, and have placed Senators,- a'A, with grd~e resp6nsi 'iiities and with a Constitutional power to try impcachmentand renderj.dgmenNere on.

EDITOrS :-On- lookiag- oer. your most exeellent paper of the'5th instant, I was attracted by the notice of Capt. Jno. P. Aull, President of the Newberry Steam Mill Company, calling the annual meetjng of the Stock holders, for Saturday the 9th inst. Beinga small Stockholder, -and not bav ing attended the meetings for some years past,. I determined to avail -myself of the summons. When the appointed day ar rived, I-hitched up my Mule, and took on board my young friend W. Y. F., who I found to be a most genial com panion,- and- arrived* at the Mill at 12 o'clock M., looked at -the operations of the Mill, its machinery and appurtenan ces until the hour of 1 o'clock P. M. ; at which time we repaired to the dwelling house of the President, where we met the VERY FEw Stockholders who- were present on this occasion, and passed a pleasant time in social.. converse, until dinner was announced. In passing through the Hall, the Side-Board was found to contain good "Old Bourbon," Wines and other refreshments, where most of the company "whetted their appetites" for - the duties upon which they were abott to enter. The doors of the dining room being then. thrown open, we entered and found the table p-esided over by Capt. 'Aull, and his most excellent lady, with a number of ladies on the right and left of Mrs. A., the table literally groaning under the good things which had been -prepared in the best style of the culinary art. I hope that I may not transcend the bounds of propriety when I enumerate some of the good things set before us, ham, turkey, goose, kid,-pig, chickens, pies and hash, served up in thegood "Old Dutch Style," rice, potatoes, pickles, bread, &c. Aftler. having done ample justice to the above, the cloth was removed and the second course introduced, consisting of straw berries and oream (in superabundance); custards, cakes,(fruit and plain) wirre, lemonade, &c. Now brother SLockhold ers will you not regret yoiw absence from this sumptuous entertainment, and determine that another annual meeting shall not pass without,being graced with your presence? After partaking cf the above bounties, the Stockholders assembled in tb%parlor and transacted the business of thes com pany, for wh'eb they bad been converned, and amongst otlier interesting features, declared a dividend of ten per cent on the capital stock, to be paid on and after this date. Aft-er the passing of suitable tributes of respect to the memory of Dr. Geo. W. Glenn and Jlames -Sloan, -Sr~, (deceased Stockholders oftthe coinpuiy), the meeting was adjourned to .convene again at the samte place, on the first Sat urday. in May,s 18(19. Long may -the energetic Pressaeent, and his estimable lady -i'ue to pregide at the table of.these annual gatherigs; the cordial~ welcomre, and kindly greetings, are or themiselves dividends to he~treasured up by all who are so fortunate a.s to be the guests of Capt. Aull and his- good wife.: Newberry S.
