ceedings consequent upon the proceedings of a
Masonic Lodge ?" "The Lodge is opened with
prayer." "Well, go on, and< state what follows.-"
I am waiting for your questions." "Well, what
are the ceremonies incident to the admission of a
member ?'\ "He is ballotted for, and if no votes
be cast againt him, is admitted a. member of the
order." "What then? Please state the subse'
auent proceedings. What follows next ?" "Mr.
Stevens," said the witness with a mischievous
twinkle in his eye, "if, on the'? of ?, 18?, you
had been found worthy, you would have become a
member of the ?- Lodge, in , and would
have been initiated in all tne secrets and mysteries
m connected with the order, and would have possesW
sed a knowledge that, except he becomes a member,
& no man will ever possess. The witness sat down
^ and Stevens wilted. The fact was, Stevens had
I some years previously been proposed for memberI
ship m one of the Lodges m the State of Pennsylvania,
but was "black-balled," and this remin"
iscence of his early life was flung so unexpectedly
[ into his face, that he was unable to recover. It is
needless to say that this was the end of the matter.
The whole thing, so far as legislative interference
was concerned, was very wisely dropped.
j EMIGRATION TO AFRICA*
The ship Golconda sailed from Baltimore, on the
20th, with a cargo for Liberia. After leaving that
port, she will call at Savannah, Georgia; where she
will receive 400 or 500 colored passengers for Liberia.
The colonization agent says he could send a
vessel load every month, such is the desire among
the colored neonle of the South to eo to Liberia.
The Sun is informed that among the emigrants
are men of intelligence and enterprise, who will be
a valuable secession to the LibenanRepublic. We
noticed sometime ago, the petition of a large number
of colored men in Mississippi to Congress to
aid them in emigrating to Liberia, and wc observe
that lately another petition for the same object has
i been presented to tne Senate from several thousand
colored men in Georgia, Alabama, and South
Carolina. They represent that they are destitute,
I without employment, and cannot hope to overcome
the disadvantages of their position in the South.
! Perhaps the 7ast sums which the Government aprpropriates
for freedmen's bureaus might be appropriated
more advantageously in aiding those who
desire to go to Liberia. The New York Times,
speculating upon the causes of this desire for emiI
gration among the colored people of the South,
well says:
"It cannot he because Congress has not legislated
enough for them ; it has done little else but
legislate For them for years past It cannot be be\
cause the Government and the people of the North
have not helped them, and encouraged them, and
instructed tnem. We have sustained (he freedmen's
bureau for their benefit^ and have sent numberless
political and educational missionaries among
them. May the terrible state of things not
he owing to the fact that our legislation has not
been of the wisest kind, and that we have looked
rather to giving them political advantages, instead
of encouraging the great productive industries upon
which blacks as well as whites must depend for
their existence ? If we would keep the Southern
blacks out of their crushing miseries, we most adopt
such means as will secure social order, material
prosperity and good feeling in the South.?
Without this, things will go on from bad to worse,
till decay and ruin become permanent under the
sway of military dictators."
| To Test Kerosene.?The following test for
Kawtaono vhifth ban heon flrninir the mnnds nf the
press for some time past, has the high sanction of
^ the Journal of Chemistry and the Scientific American:
W Take a common qoart bowl: fill it one-third full
of boiling water; now add cola water a little at a
[ time, until a thermometer placed in it indicates a
temperature of 110 deg. Fah. A table spoonful
of the oil to be tested may be turned into the water,
and stirred about with the thermometer. It
will float on top, and it may be touched with a
lighted match orbit of paper. If it ignites, or
takes fire, the oil is dangerous; and the seller can
be prosecuted under the United States law. It
must not be used in the family. In this experiment,
so simple that all can make it, an aocurate
thermometer should be used. The common thermometer
in a japaned iron case, is usually suffiI
ciently accurate. To test the thermometer, bring
water into the condition of active boiling; warm
\ the thermometer gradually in the steam, and then
plunge it into the water. If it indicates a fixed
temperature of 212 deg., the instrument is a good
, one.
Presbyterian Reunion.?For thirty-one years
the Presbyterians of the United States have been
divided and known respectively as the New and
Old School, but a general Convention of delegates
from the various divisions, adopted, last year, a
basis for reunion, and it is now being discussed
and acted upon in the subordinate synods and
presbyteries, whose ratification is necessary. The
Presbyterians of Western New York, reoentlymet
\ at Buffalo, and unanimously agreed to the proposed
plan. Their example will probably be generally
followed by the country, and as the leading clergymen
on both sides are in favor of the measure a
V great breach of thirty years' standing will, at last,
he healed. The abrogation ofslaverv and the Dreva
i lencc of more liberal views respecting abstract
j questions of theology, have materially paved the
way for the unity of the denomination.
Is it true??An old fisherman stated the other
day, that if a man wants to catch fish whenever he
visits the creek, let him not pick the full moon
days to do it in. He gives a philosophical reason
for this advice?whether souna or not we can't decide.
He says when the moon is full, the nights
being bright, enables the fish to do all their foraging
at night. Of course, having their wants supplied,
they lie up all day, and consequently there
( is a scarcity of "bites.' Under a new moon season,
the fish have to sleep at night and work by
day, which makes the difference in the fisherman's
string.
Rumors.?The Sentinel 3ays that the leading
Radicals about Raleigh are determined to protest
against the removal of the disabilities of some of
their candidates, who are admitted, even by them,
^ to be unfit for any decent office. This programme
includes several of their Judges, Dave Jenkins, &c.
I IMPEACHMENT RUMORS.
the main question.
pi The Washington Star, of Thursday even
ing, has the following:
: It appears probable that the main question
before the Senate in coming to a conclusion
will be, did the President intentionally
violate the law in the removal of Mr.
Stanton and the appointment of General
TkAmoe m V? 1 a rvl n rte\ 9 Tl>Aao wVia 4" Vi o 4

| the Senate will convict upon this issue say
that body will base its judgment upon the
fact that the Chief Executive officer of the
republic, bound by the constitution to "take
care that the laws be faithfully executed,"
has no right, under any pretext, nor in
pursuance of advice from any source, to
wilfully violate a statute, whatever may be
his private opinions as to its constitutionality^
It is curious how the barometer of opinion,
in regard to the question of conviction,
goes up and down, from day to day, without
any positive cause. We do not believe
that any one of the half dozen senators
. whose votes will decide the question, has
fe given the slightest indication how he will
vote on the final issue; yet it is certain
that the Washington atmosphere to-day is
charged with the belief that conviction is
l certain-.
THE CLOSE OP THE TRIAL.
The Washington correspondent of the
Boston Advertiser says:
The Senate, after the close of the arguments,
will go into secret session for con[
sultation. A proposition will be offered by
I Judge Edmunds to admit the official reporti
ers, so that the speeches of the Senators
L may be taken down and printed with the
I report of the trial, and half-a-dozen mem!
bers are already known to be in favor of
such, procedure, while several will oppose
it strongly. The vote on the separate articles
of impeachment will betaken in open
Senate on Wednesday or Thursday, probar
bly, of next week. When the question
I arises of pronouncing judgment, in case one
L or more of the articles is sustained, the
managers will make the usual demand, and
the Senate njay possibly retire again for
consultation. At this point an interesting
law question is likely to be raised. The
constitution says a two-thirds vote shall be 1
necessary to convict, but is silent as to the
vote on the judgment, and the question is
whether a majority or two-thirds must a- j
gree as to the sentence. Some of the law- ,
yers m the Senate are looking up authori- !
ties on this head. The majority are doubt- |
less in favor of disqualifying Mr. Johnson
from ever holding office, in case he is convicted,
but it is by no means certain that
two-thirds of the Senators would agree to t
this sentence. When judgment has been
determined it will be pronounced by the 1
Chief Justice. It is not necessary that the
President should be present when this is
done. Here the functions of the Court will
cease, and the Chief Justice will not appear
in any farther proceedings.
HOW IT WILL END.
A letter to the Baltimore Gazette says: ,
It is generally acknowledged now that
the President will be convicted. The programme
is to acquit him on all the minor
points and to find him guilty on some lead- !
ing one, which will probably be the removal
of Secretary Stanton. The necessities of |
party require this. Most of the members
are under party lash and outside influences
are also very strong. Nothing but a secret
ballot can affect the result unless, indeed,
the next ten days bring wonderful changes.
The discussion will probably be prolonged
for that time, now that the field of discus- !
sion has been thrown open.
WHAT OLD THAD. THINKS.
A Washington dispatch to the New York 1
Herald says:
Thad. Stevens displays the strongest belief
in the success of conviction. To-day
he stated that thirty-eight of the senators
were known to be in favor of conviction.
This will be two more than the requisite twothirds
necessary to success from his standpoint.
Mr. Stevens ieels so much encour4
v\?. 4 ua attaa lliinlro flin
ugCU YJJ bUlO iOVb bUOib JUU %j T VU vuuuao vuv
number will be more than thirty-eight,
which he illustrates by that principle in natural
philosophy called gravitation. He
says "a larger body always attracts the
smaller, and by the law of gravitation, the
thirty-eight senators being the larger body,
he thinks they will bring to their senses
those of the Radicals who hang back." Mr.
Stevens never looked in better health during
the present session. The prospects of
consummating a political necessity which
he has so long been pressing seems to act 1
with a remarkably invigorating influence. 1
"mack's" views about the result.
"Mack" writes as follows to the Cincin- i
nati Commercial: ;
"Banished from Rome! What's banished but set !
free
From daily contract with the things I loath."
I think you may take it as a fact nearly i
consummated, that Mr. Johnson will have 1
to study up some such passage as this. His <
trial, at first a show, then a satiety, and '<
now almost a destiny, can scarcely eventuate
otherwise than in peremptory expulsion.
His last reception, on Monday night, will
probably be his last of all but one. From
as careful canvass as I can make, I believe
that he will be convicted and removed)-"
though I doubt that the Senate will disqualify
him from holding further office of
trust and profit under the United States.
The full penalty of conviction, under impeachment,
is optional with the Senate, and
while there are not sufficient Republican
senators straight-backed enough to vote for
acquittal, there are several who are ready
to take the ground that the President's rash
acts were merely rash, and should exculpate
him from more than the temporary
penalty. "Disqualification," they say,
"would sound like persecution. Let him
go stump the country, as he threatens, and
make votes for us, as his speeches always
do."
WHAT MR. JOHNSON WILL DO IP CONVICTED.
If not disqualified, Mr. Johnson expects
to acquire citizenship in a Democratic
State, and be returned to the Senate, where
? - - Ml /? li TT J r%\ J1 J il.?
ne Will ngni nowaru, ^uanuier, aim mc
other contrivers of his conviction. He is
confident of his ability to master Tennessee
again, as he has often done, when he can
slip into the Senate, say by his relative-inlaw,
Patterson's, resignation. His resources
are not great, but his confidence is a flowing
welt. Had he any knowledge of human
nature, or power of critical characterization,
he could still be a stinging adversary
on the floor of the Senate.
The number of five cent segars consumed
in France last year, amounted, it is
said, to 45,000,000. The amount of money
involved is something.
