A party of about one hundred Norwegians,

the Atlantic to engaso in tho furniture manufac?
ture in Clinton County, Now York. They arc do
scribed as strong and rugged physically, and of
great worth of character. Tho person who wont
over to Norway to secure tho services of those im?
migrants says that great numbers of Norwegians
answered his advertisements, and his chief difii
culcy was to select thc few he desired from the
crowd of applicants. Tho United States is highly
fiopular among tho laboring classes abroad, an?l
be immigration during 1867, it is estimated, will
be greater than that during any previous year.

IMPEACHMENT.
Tho charctcr of tho investigation now going cn
before tho Judiciary Comniitteo of the House, pre
paiatory to the impeachment of the Fresidenl,
may bo inferred from tho class of witnesses al?
ready summoned. As vet, neither Conover nor
Campbell, so far as I have learned, have hoon
cited before the Committee, and Surratt, although
daily expected, has not vet readied the city. But
the notorious "General" Baker is on the spot,
and, I understand, waited upon tho sub-committee
this morning, and will soon be examined. If tho
action of this Committee, whatever it may be, is
to be at all respected by the President, tuen, in?
deed, ia ho in imminent peril. It is only neces?
sary to glance at its composition to become con?
vinced that it will go just so far as it dare,
it is constituted of tho most virulent cle?
ment to bo found in the House, and pos?
sesses in a high degree tho cunning and talent
for minuto inquiry and reckless twisting and
turning necessary iu such a business. Wilson, o
[owa, Boutwell, of Massachusetts, Francis Thorn?
ie, of Maryland, and Wilhams, of Pennsylvania
?he four first namod upon, it-aro not anywhere ex
jelled in tho peculiar qualifications befitting the
Inquisitorial duty beforo thom. Your readers are
familiar with tho antecedents of Wilson, Thomas
md Williams, and it was but tho other day that
Mr. Boutwell, in denouncing tho Supreme Court
for admitting, by the decision. ex-ConfedcratoB to
jractice beforo thom, courted notoriety by char
tcterizing their presence in such august company
ts "contamination" and "pollution," and did not
icruple to arraign tho President as their sympa
hizor, friend and "accomplice." By the way, it
ras a bitter rebuke, which was administered by
3kief Justice Chase, a day or two after this in
olorant speech, to assemble at his reception such
nen as Orr, of South Carolina, and Haynes and
?oyden, of North Carolina, "cheek by jowl" with

FINANCIAL.
Tho uncertainty prevailing in all quarters
hrougbont the country regarding the financial
2gislatiou contemplated by Congress, ia beginning
o make itself felt in both branches very strongly,
"robably tho business of tho country would re
oive material benefit if it could be positively known
hat all tho efforts of Congress aro likely to result
u leaving matter? just as they are at present. I
lo not lie si! ate to say that tho prospect of the final
iassage of the Tariff', Tax and Bank Bills is so rc
aote that they may bo practically considered fail
LTCS. Even at ?bis day the Tarin Bill is being so
teavily laden with objectionable features as to so
;ously jeopardize all chance of its success. Tho
?ax Bill, when reported, will recommond but a very
light reduction in taxation, because of tho fact
hat a high tariff is being perfected, and that tho
eec ip ts, owing to tho falling off in busi
less, aro now considerably DCIOW tho esti
aates. The Bank Bill has been so long hang
ag in the in ouse that circumstances and
vents have changed some features that were
practicable months ago into impracticable features
IOW. The question of a coutinued contraction
if tho currency is also receiving much attention,
hough no direct proposition to interfere with tho
.resent rate is yet regularly before either House,
t is quite likely, however, that during the coming
reek this question will be brought beforo tho
louse of Representatives for direct action. It is
onfidently assertod that there is a majority in the
louse against a further contraction of greenback | j
?gal tenders. But should such a measure
ass, it would still have to l'un tho gauntlet of the
Onate Finance Committee, which is known to be
gainst interfering with the present rate, and it je
ot at all certain that the Soaate itself would not
ustain its Committee. In viow of the considora
ion of these various measures, a very largo uuin
er of tho business men of the country ar? now in
Washington. I learn that a considerable number
f bankers aro also coming hero nc/i week, to bo
card before tho Financial Committees with refor
nce to measures bearing upon theil- interests.

January 21,1807. J. F. G. MITTAG,
General Itouort E. Lee's Estate.
[From the Washington Correspondence of ?lie St. Louis
Times.]
Tho stranger in Washington, down Louisiana
Aveuuo with his face to the west, sees before him,
when ho gets to the front of tho City Hall, on the
south side of thc Potomac, and on a commanding
eminonco, an edifice which, at the distance of
three milos from tho point of v?Bion, resembles a
Crook temple This is Arlington House, tho resi?
dence, before the war, of General Robert E. Lee.
The Arlington estate was one of tho largest, hand?
somest and most valuable in the State of Virginia.
At an carly period of tho war the mansion was
stripped of everything valuable that could be
carried away by soldiers from Pennsylvania and
New England. Picturos, mirrors, statuary, rare
and costly books, old china and silver plate, were
all gobbled up, and seat off to tho "loyal" North.
These articles are now to be seen in dozens of
houses in the States I have named.
A faithful negro Bervant, who had remained on
the place, saw this stealing going on day after day,
and at last came ov r to tho city, got one of tho
servants of the White House to secure him an in?
terview with Abraham Lincoln, laid the facts be?
fore bim, and begged him not to permit "MasBa
Robert's" property tobe thus despoiled. Mr. Lin?
coln's reply, in substance, was said to be that he
could not interfere with the military, that tho sol?
diers were only doing at Arlington what they soon
would do all over tue South: and toat as for Bob
Leo, he was a traitor, and had nv rights wbieb the
soldiers were bound to respect.
The result was that the house and grounds
were soon made to look like the abomination of
desolation.
Finally, tho Government went to work and bu?
ried thc bodies of 16,000 white soldiers on one side
of the house, and tho bodies of 1G00 negro sol?
diers on the other, lt is said that thc negroes who
Uve in that vicinity frighten their children by tell?
ing them the most frightful ghost stories about
these dead bodies.
They say that every night al midnight the
ghosts of these 1600 negro soldiers rise from their
gravos, and dance a Virginia break-down on the
graves of their 1G,000 white comrades; and that
the ghosts of the latter, thus unceremoniously dis?
turbed, arise likewise, and attack the black ghosts;
that the fight then rages between the black and
white ghosts till 4 A.M., when the black ghosts
prevail (ono black ghost boing more than a match
for ten white ones), and drive the white ghost B
howling to their sepulchres, when they finish their
break-down, and then vanish to their own graves.
A colony of several hundred blacks was estab?
lished by thc Government on another part of the
estate, and they were provided with comfortable
huts, furniture, utensils, implements, etc., and
wore then told to go to work. Not one obeyod out
of ton. Tho other nine Btolo and sold everything
they could carry off, and spent their time in idle?
ness. Now that the winter is here, they aro suf?
fering from hunger and cold, and the people of
Washington have been appealed to to save thom
from perishing. How much better to have left
them to their kind masters?

tho divans are made into beda, and supplied with
pillows by tho official guard. At length overy one

Bxcliang'ed, and it is night in tho car. The guard
and car driver only keeps awako.
During tho twenty hours a passenger is whirled
along between St. Petersburg and Moscow, the
train stops at least twenty times. Tho stations
aro elegant buildings, painted red, with broad
white facings round the windows and along the
eaves. Without the very picture of cleanliness,
Lhoy aro well stocked receptacles of tho good

* large vaulted hall,. scrupulously whitewashed,
and paved with flags. On long tables a sumptuous

ind beers of every clime are represented in nume?
rous bottles, alternating on tho neatly covered
iabloa with steaming platos. The hall is in the
bare, cold stylo so oftou met with in the country
when pomp is not intended.
Tho viands aro good, tho waiters ready, and
iheir white gloves unexceptionable. I need not
jay the whole affair is dear. Such luxuries as these

SPREAD THE TRUTH.
Somo medical men insist that it is undignified to ad?
vertise a remedy, however valuable it may bo. Queer
reasoning this. It ls like saying thal an article which
the world noeds should bc hid iu a corner-that benefits
and blessings may bc too widely diffused-that the means
of protecting and restoring health should bc a close
monopoly, and not accessible to all. Tho argument is
bad. It is worse than that; it is inhuman. Suppose
HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTEItS-an absolute spe?
cific for dyspepsia, biliousness and notwous debility
had never boen known beyond tho repertoire of tho
faculty, what would have been the consequence ? In?
stead of curing and invigorating millions, tbe good effects
ol' tho preparation would have been confined to a com?
parativo few. There ia tho highest authority for saying
that light should not bc hid under a bushel; that what?
ever is excellent should bc placed as a city ou a hill,
whore all men can tak i cognizance of it. It is upon this
principle that the BITTERS havo hceu advertised and
coutiuuo to bo advertised in every newspaper of any
prominenco in thc western hemisphere, and that the
spontaneous testimonials in its favor have been trans?
lated into all written languages. Thousands enjoy per?
fect health to-day who would be languishing on beds of
sickness if tho newspapers had not spread tho truth with
rugard to this unequalled invigorant and corrective far
and wide. Suppose profit has been reaped from this pub?
licity. Is that any argument against it? If thc public
health has been protected; if lives havo been saved; if
the feeble havo been strengthened and thc sick restored,
graat good has booii accomplished; and who so mean as
to grudge to exertions thus directod their fair reward ?

From SAMUEL HENRY HICKSON, M. D., Professor
Practice of Physic, Jefferson Medical College, Phila?
delphia, formerly of Charleston, S. C. :
PHILADEUHIA, November 15,1865.
1 have been for a year or more past in the habit of
toking the water of the "Excelsior" Spring of Saratoga.
Accustomed during the great portion of my invalid lifo
to uso the different waters of the several fountains which
boil up along mat remarkable valley, dependent, indeed,
upon them tor much of the comfort I enjoy, I om satis?
fied that the Excelsior Water ls aa well adapted cs any
other among them, if not moro eo, to the purposes tor
which they are generaUy employed. It is very agreeable,
strongly impregnated with the carbonic acid, lively and
sparkling. * * * lean heartily and conscientiously
recommend it to all who need a gentle cathartic and
diurotic. SAMUEL HENRY DICKSON, M. D.

tal and mathematical drawing; but, after a thorough
trial of tho American Poly grade Lead Pencils, man?
ufactured by me American Lead Pencil Company, New
York, I find them superior to any pencil in use, even to
the Faber or the old English Cumberland Lead Pencil,
being a superior pencil for sketching; ornamental and
mechanical drawing, and all the ordinary uses of a lead
pencil.
These pencils are very finely graded and have a very
smooth lead; even the sol tost pencils hold the point well;
they aro all that can bo desired in a pencil. ? It gives me
great pleasure to bc able to assure Americans that they
wUl no longer be compelled to depend upon Germany or
any other foreign market for pencils.
