Evarts proceeded. He spoke all day, but will conclude
tomorrow. Mr. Stanbeiy will deliver his
speech in person. Acquittal stock is up and bets
to-day are even. <
Mr. Nelson's triumph over Butler to-day was
complete. Senator Trumbull moved that Mr.
Nelson be allowed to explain. Mr. Nelson, as a
part of his explanation, was reading & letter when
Butler objected. Senator Davis said a manager
has no business to object Senator Sherman then
objected. Senator Hendricks moved that Nelson
be allowed to read so much as would show the date
and signature?which was carried. Mr. Nelson
holding the letter, faced toward the Senate and
said, iSeoators will see that the letter is dated
L March 9th, and here attached to it they will see
L the autographs of B. F. Butler and John A. LoF
gan.T>
The leadership which Sumner has assumed, in
relation to new rules, is evidently distasteful to
many senators.
Washington, April 30.?In the Court of Impeachment
the resolution censuring Nelson was
tabled, b y a vote of thirty-five to ten. Just before
the resolution of oensure on Mr. Nelson was tabled,
Mr. N. said that although not a duelist, and never
having fought a duel, he did mean to convey the
intimation that he was responsible in any manner
and would claim no exemption of any kind on account
o: his age. The senators voting against
tabling the resolution, censuring the chivalncoid
man, we re Cameron, Howard, Morgan, Morrill, of
Vermont, Pomeroy, Stewart, Snmner, Thayer,
Wilson and Yates.
Mr. Evarts proceeded with his argument.
The acquittal element seems more confident
Later.?Mr. Evarts spoke the entire day, and
concludes to-morrow. His endurance was astounding,
as his form indicates frailty; but, hour after
hour, without water and with scarcely a note, his
speech rolls on, mingled with pathos, invective
and sarcasm, the details artisticiuly following and
relieving each other, without repetition, either in
matter, manner or construction. One of his sentences
oonclndes: "If you drive the President
forth, he will be a victim to Congress and a martyr
to the constitution."
Washington, May 1.?Mr. Evarts closed at.3
^ o'clock, and, after a recess, Mr. Stanberry com'
mencea, saying that, although feeble inhealth, an
irresistible impulse urged turn on. unseen out
friendly hands sustained him, and voices, inaudible
to others, he heard whispering of hope and confidence,
and saying, or seeming to say: "Feeble
champion of the right, hold not bhck ! Remember
the race is not always to the swift, or the battle
to the strong. Remember a single pebble from
a brook was enough to overthrow the giant that
defied the armies of Israel.'' The court adjourned
before Mr. Stanbery had concluded.
- Washington, May 2.?Mr. Stan berry concluded
his argument Bingham, who is to make the
concluding speech on impeachment, follows Mr.
Stanbeny. It is expected that he will occupy at
least two days.
SPEECH OF MB. GROESBECK.
In Bpite of the Radical assurances of the certainSof
the conviction and removal of the President,
e accounts by mail from Washington continue to
? represent his chances as steadily improving. The
National Intdigencer says: "It is noteworthy
that during the last two or three days there
has been tne most striking change in public opinion.
The speech of Mr. Groesbeck produced
a very remarkable effect, and its reception bv the
Senate has led to the belief that a portion of that
body, sufficient to control the result, are ready to
hear and to weight argument, with a view to making
up an honest^ana impartial judgment On
yesterday, we think*, a majority of the intellegent
W and well-informed persons with whom we conversed,
or of whose opinions, we heard, were impressed
with the belief that acquittal was probable, if
not certain. Outside of the list of managers and a
few -ultras in the Senate, we hear of nobody that
pretends to believe conviction is warranted by any
other consideration than party necessity. The
growing belief, in short, is that impeachment is
aoomed.. " A telegraphic dispatch says:
"Mr. Groesbeck's argument began, like those of
his predecessors on the same side, with a consideration
of the character of the tribunal, the speaker
urging that it is a court, and not, as the managers
would have it, an institution above all law; acknowledging
no restraint ; worse than a court-martial
in that it has a broader and more dangerous
jurisdiction. He then proceeded to consider the
arvnsaifin o??a nn ipWrili t(iA nrtioloc aro nnd
to argue?first, that Mr. Stanton was not covered
by the Civil Tenure act; second, that if he was so
covered the law is unconstitutional, and therefore
no law at all; and third; that the President has
the full right to make an ad interim appointment
I pass over the main body of the speech thus
lightly, because the points presented, although
argued with much originality and force, have been
the topics of previous arguments, and send you a
full report of the conclusion of the argument, in
which Mr. Groesbeck advanced into new ground,
so far as the present trial is concerned, ana defended
the President on a theory, the boldness of
which is matched by the eloquence with which it
was put. Looking back over the case, he was glad
to be able to say there were no political questions
* * involved in it The questions were, where is the
power of removal lodged by the constitution ? Is
Mr. Stanton's case covered by the Civil Tenure
act ? Could the President make an ad interim appointment?
Did he do anything mischievous in
his interview with General Emory ? And then the
matter of freedom of speech, which he apprehended
nobody would cany on his back as a heavy
load for the remainder of his life. Stripped of all
verbiage, that was the case upon which their
judgment was asked. It shocked him to think it
possible that the President could be dragged from*
his office on such questions as whether he could
make an ad interim appointment for a single day.
Was this a matter justifying the disturbing of the
Suet of the people; shaking their confidence in
eir President and driving him from office ? How
meagre, he saidj how miserable is this case! An
ad interim appointment for a single day! An attempt
to remove Mr. Stanton, who stood defiantly
and poisoned all the channels of intercourse with
the President Mr. Groesbeck continued as follows:
I do not speak this in censure of Mr. Stanton,
but such is the fact We have been referred to
many precedents in the past history of England,
but those precedents should be to you, Senators,
not matters for imitation, but beacon-lights to warn
you from the dangerous rocks on which they
U stand. What is to be your judgment, Senators?
Removal from office and perpetual disqualification?
TX? Vioa rlnna Qni4kmnp VIA

F should be removed from office he should also be
disqualified from holding office hereafter. What
is his crime ? He tried to pluck a thorn out of
his heart, for it had become a thorn there, and the
Senate had fastened it there. What more had
lie done ? He had made an ad interim appointment
to last for a single day. You could have terminated
it whenever you saw fit; you had only to
take up the nomination, and the ad interim would
have vanished like smoke. The thing was in your
hands; you had only to act on the nomination and
the matter was settled. This was no crime. I can
point you to cases that have occurred, and I point
especially to that case of Floyd's where the Senate
in its legislative capacity weighed the question, decided
upon it, heard the report of the President,
and received it as satisfactory'. For the purpose of
this trial that is res adjudicata. What else did
the President do ? He talked with an officer about
the law. That is the Emory article. What
else did he do ? He made intemperate speeches;
when reviled he should not have reviled again;
when smitten on the one cheek he should not nave
turned the other also; then he would have escaped
impeachment But, said the gentleman who addressed
you the day before yesterday, he was eager
for pacification and for the restoration of the South.
1 deny it, m the sense in which tne gentleman presented
it, as being criminal. Here, too, the President
followed reason, and trod the path on which
were the footprints of Lincoln, and which was
lighted by the radiance of that divine utterance of
Lincoln's: "Charity toward all, malice toward
none." He was eager for pacification; he knew
that the war was ended; the drums were all silent;
the arsenals were all shut; the noise of the cannon
had died away; the army was disbanded * not a
single enemy confronted in the field, and ne was
eager for pacification; the hand of reconciliation
was stretched out to him and he took it; was this
kindness?this forgiveness?a crime? Kindness
a crime ? Kindness is omnipotent for good ; more
powerful than the gunpowder and cannon; kindness
is statesmanship; kindness is the high statesmanship
of Heaven itself. The thunders of Sinai
did but terrify and distract; it is the kindness oi
Calvary that subdues and pacifies.
What shall I say of that man ? He has evei
walked in the path and by the light of the constitution.
The mariner, tempest-tossed on the seas,
is not more sure to turn on the stare for guidance
than this man in the trials of public life to look
to the star of the constitution ; he does love the
constitution; it has been the study of his life; he
is not learned and schollary like many of you; he
is not a man of many ideas or of much speculaj
tion. But he is a man of intelligence; he is a
L patriot second to no one of you m the measure
of his patriotism; he may be full of errors?I will
not canvass now his views; he loves his countiy,
and I believe would die for it if need be: his courage
and his patriotism are not without illustration.
My colleague referred the other day to the scene
which occurred in this chamber when he alone of
all the senators from his section remained even
when his own State had seceded; that was a trial
to which many of you by reason of your locality and
your life-long associations know nothing. How his
voice rung out in this hall on that occasion in the
hour of alarm and in denunciation of the rebellion I
I But he did not remain here; this was a pleasant
and easy position. He chose a more difficult and
| arduous and perilous service. That was a trial of
his courage and patriotism, of which some of you
who now sit in judgment upon him know nothing.
I have thought that those who dwelt at the North,
at a safe distance from the collision of war, knew
but little of its actual trying dangers. We who
lived upon the border knew it Our horizon was
always red with flame, and it sometimes was so
near our homes that we felt the heat upon our outstretched
hand. Mr. Johnson went into the very
borders of the war, and there he served his counSy
long and well Which of you has done more ?
ot one! There is one among you whose service,
as I well know, cannot be over-estimated, and I
withdraw all comparison. But it is enough to say
that his services were greatly needed, and it seems
hard, it seems cruel, that he should be struck here
upon these miserable technicalities, or that anybody
who has served his country and borne himself
well and bravely should be treated as a criminal
and condemned upon these miserable charges.
Even if he had committed a crime against the
laws, his services to the country entitle him to
some consideration; but he has precedents for everything
he has done?excellent precedents. The
voices of the great dead come to us from their
graves sanctioning his course. All our past history
approves it. How can you single out this man
now in this condition of things, and brand him before
the country ? Will you put your brand upon
him because he made au ad interim appointment
and attempted to remove Edwin M. Stanton? I
can, at a single glance, senators, fix my eye on
many of you who would not endure the position
which the President occupied; you did not think
it right, yourselves ; you framed the very Civil
Tenure Act to give every President his own Cabinet
And then the President's whole crime is that
he wants an officer in the War Department with
whom he can communicate on publio business and
entertain friendly relations.
Senators: I am tired and no doubt you are.?
There is a great deal crowding on me for utterance,
but it is not from my head, it is rather from my
heart, and would be but a repetition of what I
have been saying this last half hoar. Andrew
Johnson, administrator or tne rresiaentiai omoe,
is to me as nothing in comparison with the possible
consequences 01 your action on the government
of the country. No good can come of conviction
on these articles of impeachment, but how much
will the heart of the countiy be rejoiced if it learns
that the Senate of the United S^bes was not unmindful,
amid the storm and paJfflon and strife of
this hour, of the constitution, of its country, and
of its own dignity!
WHO IS MB. GROESBlfcK ?
Mr. Groesbeck, of the President's counsel, seems
to be a gentleman who only awaited an opportunity,
and needed a suitable theatre, to establish a
shining reputation for abilities and eloquence. He
is a New Yorker - by birth, and about forty-two
years of age. After studying law, he established
himself in Cincinnati. The standing he immediately
acquired as a lawyer is attested by the fact
that in 1852, when he was only twenty-six years of
age, he was appointed a member of the commission
to codify tne laws of Ohio; his qualifications
having been made known by his service the previous
year in the State Constitutional Convention.
In 1856, he was elected by the Democrats of the
Second Ohio District to represent them in the
Thirty-fifth Congress, Mr. Pendleton being first
elected to Congress at the same time from the
First District Mr. Groesbeck served but one
term, and was on the Committee on Foreign Relations.
In the Winter of 1860 he was a member
of the Peace Conference at Washington, and was
elected the next year to the Ohio State Senate.?
Although Mr. Groesbeck has for many years been
well known in his own State, he had not acquired
a national reputation until the accident of Mr.
Black's withdrawal from the impeachment case
supplied the opportunity of which he has made so
splendid a use. He is not eminent in his profession,
only because he is a rich man and does not
devote himself to practice. He is a brother of the
wife of Major-General Joseph Hooker.
A PREDICAMENT.
In his brilliant argument in defence of President
Johnson, Mr. Groesbeck presented some hew
points. He showed to the surprise of the Senate,
that the Tenure-of-office bill which the President
is charged with having violated in appointing a
successor to Mr. Stanton, did actually and plainly
limit the tenantcy of that worthy to a period which
has long since passed away. The provision of the
bill reaas as follows:
Provided, That the Secretary of State, the Secretary
of the Treasury, the Secretary of War, the
OCt'reittljr Vl UIC XI UVjr, atiu uic uwivvuir Vi vuv
Interior, the Postmaster-General and the AttoneyGeneral,
shall hold their offices respectively for and
during the term of the President by whom they
may have been appointed, and one month thereafter,
subject to removal by and with the consent
of the Senate.
This provision assigned the office of Secretary
of War to Mr. Stanton for a period of a Presidential
term, with one mpnth added thereto?that is,
for the precise period of four years and one month
from the date of his commission. Now, Stanton's
commission dates from the first election of President
Lincoln. If, therefore, the act applies to
him, it turned him out office the moment it was
passed. If it did not apply to him, then the President
is violating no act whatever in dismissing
him. The case is "as plain as the nose on a man's
face."
OUTRAGES IN TENNESSEE.
Pulaski, April 28.?A destructive fire broke
out on the East side of the public square, about 1
o'clock, this morning, consuming the entire block
of buildings on that side, consisting of thirteen business
houses. The total loss isestimated at$100,000.
Not more than one-third of the property destroyed
was insured. The fire is supposed to nave
been the work of an incendiary. In connection
with the conflagration, a shocking report reached
this City yesterday to the effect that during the progress
of the destructive element, a white woman
and her daughter were seized and ravished by>
' party of negroes, and that one of the unfortmafte
creatures had since died, while the other wis not
expected to live.
The towns along the line of the Nashville and
Decatur Railroad are, one after another, being swept
with tornadoes of tire, and the destruction of property
far exceeds any loss hitherto known in their
long history. Only a short time since, a considerable
portion of Franklin was.laid in ashes, and now
i a large part of the busiuess portion of Pulaski is a
; heap of smouldering ruins.
Beverly Nasu Snubbed by a United States
Officer.?A gentleman of high standiug sends us
i - f* M? ? r .
me iouowing iaccs irom uuiumuia.
A few days ago, after Nash had ascertained^to
his satisfaction that he was elected to the Senate,he
called upon Major Andrews, the Commandant
of the Post, to pay his compliments. On entering
the room where the Major was seated, he
spoke, giving him the time of day, when the Major
enioined: "Who are you, and what do you
wish? He replied: ''My name is Nash, sir."
"Well," says the Major, "what of that?" "Oh,
sir," says he, "I am Beverly Nash, Senator elect
to the State Legislature of South Carolina, and
have called upon you officially to pay my compliments
as such." The Major abruptly replied:?
i "Well, sir, 1 neither give to, nor receive compli'
meats from negroes." But says Nash. "1 am not
a negro, I am-coloured." The Major Drought the
whole matter to a speedy and final close by saying:
" You are a negro, sir, and as blade a one as I ever
saw. I recognize but three races, aud these are
whites, Indians and negroes."
Charleston Mercury. '
Collector Mackey in Washington.?A
special Washington dispatch to the New York
Times says: "Hon. A. G. Mackey, President of
the South Carolina Reconstruction Convention,
has arrived here, bringing with him a duly certified
copy of the constitution adopted by the people of
* that State, which he is required by law to place in
the hands of the President? who will transmit it to
. Congress. Mr. Mackey will probably seek an in.
terview with President Johnson for that purpose,
in a few days, although he has been advised by
1 several ardent impeachers to postpone his visit till
' after the impeachment trial is closed."
[ Fearful Accident?A Man Bitten to Death
s by an Enraged Horse.?On the 25th ultimo,
Mr. Wrn. Garrett, of Greenville, was riding a five
\ year old stallion, in Laurens District, and, on ati
tempting to remount him, jerked the bridle.
This enraged the hone, which sprang at Mr. Garrett
and bit hiui severely in the arm. A fight then
began between the man and the furious horse,
which suoceeded in biting several pieces of flesh J
oat of the side of his rider. The straggle continued
for some time, when the horse bit off two of
Air. Garrett's fingers and threw him down, stamp
ing on his chest four gf five times as he lay upon the
ground. Mr. Garrett then managed to twist
the bridle and halter around a small tree, and then
crawled off a short way. He was found by a neighbor
who was passing and carried to the house of
Mr. J. H. Jones. Medical aid was called in, but i
Mr. Garrett died the same night.
The horse remained for four hours in an enraged <
condition, and severe means were obliged to be J
made use of before he could be even approached, i
