SCENES IN THE "COURT-ROOM."
The scene at the conclusion of Manager Bingham's
speech for the prosecution, was briefly referred
to by the telegraph, but the followiug account
from the correspondence of the Chicago
Tunes is well worth the space it occupies. He
M says:
t "While the noise was at its loudest, the Chief
| Justice, in angrv tone, ordered the Sergeant-atArms
to clear the galleries, but it was manifest
that without the oonsent of the offenders the orders
could not be executed. A few cried out, "He
can't do it" "He hasn't got men enough." "We
won't go out," and <;ther indications that they
meant what they said, and were determined not to
be put out
The doorkeeper attempted to enforce the order
V.? A ma ?**/%*???? if V?iif f !\?itr nr^ro vnnr OIATP fn niAVA

The Senators beginning to get alarmed, for really
the scene began to ^mack of the French revolution,
when the crowd used to overawe the National
Assembly, Mr. Grimes angrily asked, after surveying
the scene, why the order was not enforced
forthwith, to which the Chief Justioe. who seemed
to be getting quite nervous, explained that the order
would be enforced.
A volley of hisses for Grimes came next and
that, too, from the jnost respectable part of the
galleries. Many a fie dressed lady contributed to
them. An attempt was made to get up a more
violent insult in the way of a loud "bah," and some
hooting was heard, such as the rabble sometimes
deal out to stump speakers they don't like.
Trumbull quickly csine to the relief of Grimes,
with a motion that the offenders be arrested, as
well as the galleries cleared.
"I would like to see you do it." Bhouted several
. of the retiring applauiers in replyr
The galleries were by this time about half cleared,
but not because of the order of the Chief Justice.
It had got out that the court was about to
retire or adiouni, and those who had left had done
so under the Jmpre&iion. Suddenly a few cried
out: "Hold on ! they ain't going to adjourn; let
us see the thing out." Then came a halt, and
hundreds took their eats again, with the utmost
unconcern, and totally indifferent to. the order of
tneir ejection.
Mr. Cameron, amil the din and confusion, rose
to hope that the galleries would not be cleared. He
did not believe it fair to punish all for the offences
of some, and hoped none but those who had made
the demonstration would be put out
Fessenden and Johnson sharply called Cameron
to order, and insisted that the clearance be proceeded
with, at which there was another volley of
hisses and a few more hootings, and the scene
looked more revolutionary than ever.
Meantime, in the corridors, a few hundred of the
ejected had formed into a crowd, and commenced
singing: "Old Grimes is dead, that poor old soul."
They were j'oined by the ladies with great glee.?
Between the verses the Iowa Senator was liberally
and maliciously cursed and damned as a traitor and
a copperhead. One man attempted to make a
speech against Grimes, and the other renegades,
but the tumult was too great for him, ana all around
him were too much interested in the song,
which was thought to l? peculiarly appropriate, ana
piquant. "Will the ladies help us sing?" said
rone. "Certainly they will," saia another; and so
they did.
While this extraordinary scene was taking place
in the corridors and within the hearing of the nigh
court of impeachment, Senators were wondering
what still kept the galleries at least half full. Sherman
attempted to solve the mvstery by suggesting
to the Chief Justice that perhaps those who remained
in the galleries did not understand the nature
of the order.
The Chief Justice repeated the order for their
benefit, and again instructed the Sergeant-at-Arms
to enforce it, which he, wiih the aid of all the capitol
employees he could find, proceeded at once to
do.
Finally, all were cleared but the reporter's and
the diplomatic gallery. The occupants of these
thought themselves exempt from the rule. The

ing the posse to eject them. The British Minister
at first remonstrated, then went out to find the
Serjeant-at-Arms, and then again tried to secure
the interposition of Mr. Sumuer, but all to no purpose.
He and all his choice company of distinguished
foreigners had to leave."
INTERVIEW WITH THE PRESIDENT.
The "Washington correspondent of the Boston
Post recently had an interview with President
Johnson, an account of which is furnished to that
paper:
The probable result c ? the great impeachment
i trial is the universal to )ic of conversation in all
circles of society here anl elsewhere, but the great
wonder so frequently expressed is, "How does
President Johnson leel; what does he think of the
chances of conviction or aoquittal?" To gratify
this very natural curiosity or wonder on the part
of the people, your correspondent sought information
at the Executive Mansion, where he was cordially
rect ived by the President, who, with perfect
nonchalance, inquired, What news to-day; how
stands impeachment?"
No one could have susoected that the party who
propounded these questions was himselr impeached,
and then on trial for "high crimes and misdemeanors."
Mr. Johnson has never looked better
than he does to-day, and his fine flow of good huhumor
indicates anythirg but a troubled mind.?
After briefly replying to his questions, your correspondent
ventured upon his work directly and
without circumlocution.
"I would be pleased to learn your views of the
situation, Mr. President; what do you think of
impeachment?"
The President promptly replied, "Oh, I have
never allowed myself to believe or feel that the
American Senate would prostitute its great power
of impeachment to base party purposes, and I
shali not believe it until I know the vote of conviction
has been recorded. Such is my abstract
opinion of the Senate; but whatever their opin^
ion may be I shall cheerfully bow to the authority
of the Constitution."
"But, Mr. President, it was suggested bv Mr.
Bingham in his closing argument thai it was doubtf
ful whether you would obey the mandate of the
i Senate if the judgment lie one of conviction."
Mr. Johnson's face flushed, and a slight start
was perceptible as if about springing to his feet.
Smiles and pleasant looks were gone and with suppressed
indignation he ss.id: "The suggestion of
Mr. Bingham was a base one, but, nevertheless,
. i :.i- .1 1 j
One in period. Harmony ? uu uue uuar^cs uuu suggestions
contained in the eleven articles of impeachment.
Why should I not obey the mandate
of the Senate if all the forms and requirements of
the Constitution are complied with? If Senators
abuse their trust they are not responsible to me,
but to the people, who hold the sovereign power.
The people have placed toe in charge of one of the
great departments of the Government, with all its
duties and responsibilities, and the same people
have placed Senators in mother department also,
with grave responsibilities, and with power to try
L impeachment, and render iudgments thereon. If
r Senators misuse or abuse the great power thus entrusted
to them, it is not for the party impeached
and convicted to attempt to set aside the judgment
of the Senate. The pet pie alone can settle with
their agents for any abuse of their great trust. Mr.
Bingham well knows tht.t I have never failed to
yield a cheerful compliance with all the requireiuents
of the Constitution. I have endeavored, to
the best of my ability, to protect, defend, andpreserve
that great chart or' our liberties, and I am
more than willing to surrender my official responsibilities
whenever called upon so to do according
to the forms and requirements of that sacred instrument."

TIIE NEW TAX BILL.
Washington, May 12.?'The object of the new
tax bill reported to-day in the House by General
Schenck, is indicated by its title, namely: "An
act to reduce into one act and amend the laws relating
to internal taxes." The first part of the
bill covers some sixty sections in regard to general
matters. It changes the Internal Revenue Bureau
into a department, the chief officer of which
is to be a commissioner, whose annual salary is to
be $0000; the assistant commissioner a salary of
$40*00; six deputy commissioners with a salary
each of $3,000 per annum; a solicitor at a salaiy
of$4000, together with the requisite number ofl
clerks and messengers. The commissioner has
power to appoint and remove all collectors, assessors,
supervisors of revenue, inspectors, guagers,
storekeepers and other officers and clerks provided
I for in this act, who shall severally give bonds for
I the faithful performance of their duties as may be
L required by law. The commissioner is required to
ft organize a system for the distribution of labor and
m duty in his department by establishing six divisions
therein, to each of which shall be referred wha
ever relates to a particular class of subjects, as fo
lows:
The bill leaves the tax on whiskey at $2, but ah
taxes retail sales of the same. Tax on all kinds (
chewing tobacco is fixed at forty cents per pounc
and on smoking and other inferior kinds, sixtee
cents. Cigars are all taxed at $10 per thousand
Petroleum remains at ten cents. Taxes on sale
of merchandise and mechanical productions at
one-fifth of one per cent, over $5000. Specii
taxes are largely increased in many cases, recjuii
ing them to be paid on many branches of busines

items provided for in the new bill:

TROUBLES WITH MEXICO.
Trouble is brewing with Mexico. It is state
that on the 21stultimo, "Messrs. Ernest Seichard
Ferris H. Potter, Samuel B. Katkrine, Jame
Montgomery, Zaptha and Rice, American mei
chants, who were promenading one of the princi
pal streets of Monterey, were arrested by a squa
of the city policet by order of Governor Davik
They were flung into a verminous dungeon whic
contained about seventy of the very scum an
dregs of Mexican leprous criminals and vagabondi
and after a night or horrors two of their numbe
were ordered to carry out and empty a tub coi
taining the accumulated offal of the precedin
twentv-four hours. They naturally refused to obe
this beastly order, whereupon the iailor bade
convicted felon to cowhide them, and in executin
his command he cut through the gentlemen's cl<
thing and brought blood. Fearing that they migl
be flogged to death, the gentlemen dismissed thei
scruples and performed the menial task. The
their four companions were forced to take broom
and clean the cell and court-yard of the prison, th
degraded and brutal .iailors, meantime, heapin
upon them every epu.net of abuse which tnei
groveling brains could conceive. The prisoner
having been taken before the Alcade, were fine
ten dollars each; but this sum they were unabl
to pay on the spot, their captors having robbe
them before committing them to the dungeon. Mi
Ulrich, our Consul, obtained their release; but h
could get no further satisfaction. Gen. Escobedc
who was in the city, was appealed to, but he pai
no heed, while the populace, as the prisoners wer
walking to the ^ii, shouted, "Death toAmer
cans!" A Mexican gentleman who was promer
ading with the Americans was arrested, Dut ws
released at the prison gate. He hastened to tb
Governor's palace to see Davila; but when li
pressed upon that dignitary the release of the pri:
oners, he was again put under arrest, and held i
the palace until the following morning. The I
merican Consul has sent to Secretary Seward a n

fN the issue of the YORKVILLE ENQUIRER
L for the 4th of JUNE, will be commenced the
ublication of the above thrilling and interesting
ouvelette, written expressly for ita oolumna,Jby
ne of the most popular authors of this State. The
rlncipal soenee of the story are laid in Charleston
nd vicinity, and the story cannot fail to prove lay
sresting to all who are familiar with the events
rbich occurred^ in that locality daring the late
rar. w
One of the most painful circumstances connectd
with the heroie defence of Charleston, daring
ts three vears of siesre. is to be foand in the feet,
hat during all this time, there were persons in the
ity. "in high life," who were engaged as spies in
ending information to the besiegers. Drawings
f the fortifications were furnished, weak points- **
oted, and the movements of troops indicated as
oon as began, and the fleet notified of the time
f arrival and departure of blockade running vat-:
els. So cautiously did these emissaries of the.
nemy conduct their work, that for a long timethe
kill of the most eminent detectives was baffled
a their endeavors to break up the illicit corresondence.
These spies were the souroe of ex-"
reme annoyance to the Commanders in Charlesan,
and the information they were enabled to furisn,
often thwarted their best matured designs
fan the enemy. As a proof of the completeness
this conspiracy, it may be remarked, that the:
aily papers of the city were frequently read on
oard the blockade fleet, the same day of their
iublication. ..
The author of "ISOLETTE, OR THE FE>f
ALE SPY," has taken the principal characters
nd incidents in this afiair, and under assumed,
tames, has presented them in the form of a thrU- r
ing, and well written romance, historic and iinginative.
The circumstances of the story are
.e tailed as beginning on JameB Island, And in oontection
with some of the South Carolina Reginents
stationed there. After many thrilling so-'
entures in which the "female spy" figures largey,
the heroes of the plot follow their regiment to.
Virginia, before the walls of Petersburg. The
urrender of General Lee's Army in 1885, ilnds'
