?bn?t VOLUME VI.-NUMBER 7851 CHARLESTON, S. C., MOIS'DAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 24, 1868. [EIGHTEEN CENTS A WEEK BY TELEGRAPH. LATEST FROM WASHINGTON. THE PRESIDENTS A TJTH0R1 TY DEFIED STANTON DETERMINED TO HOLD THE WAR DEPARTMENT. EXCITING SCENES AND INCIDENTS. THE RESOLUTION OF IMPEACHMENT A VOTE TO BE TAKEN TO-DAY. WASHINGTON, February 22.-The Senate last night, after several hours executive session, resolved that the President had no right to re? move Mr. Stanton. At 8 o'clock this morning Adjutant-General Thomas was arrested < u a warrant issued hy Judge Carter on the affidavit of Stanton for violation of the fifth section of the Tenure-of-Office bill. 3cth Houses meet to-day for business. The excitement is very great. General Thomas was released on bail in five thontand dollars to appear on Wednesday. Mr. Stanton camped in the War Offico last night and is still in possession. The Committee on Reconstruction, by a vote of seven Republicana, against two Democrats, decided to-day to prefer articles of impeach? ment against the Presid?nt for his condnct res? pecting the removal of Stanton. The President will take no arbitrary mea? sures. He is content with the present shape of affairs. The matter rests now with the courts. Only the Democrats, Messrs. Brooks and Beck, voted against the impeachment resolu? tions in the Reconstruction Committee. After his release from custody, Adjutant General .Thomas found his office door 1 eked. Stanton had the key. Thomas went to Stan? ton's office, finding Stanton and ten members of Congress, Generals Grant, Dent and How? ard. Sentinels guarded each door and visitors were only admitted after their cards were in? spected. Several card* were presented for Thomas, but admission was refused. Colonel Moore tbe President's Privato Secretary, called to see Thomas and admission was refused. Thomas remained in Stanton's room until half past twelve, when he left the war building. During the interview Stanton notified Thomas he would not give up the Secretaryship or obey Thomas as Secretary of War, and that ho had instructed all employees of the Department not to obey Thomas. At two o'clock Thomas had a prolonged interview with the President, during which tho President said he desired to test tho matter legally in the courts. The Democratic National Committee have named New York as the place and the 4th of July as the day for holding the National Con? vention. Committeemen from the Southern States had a full voice in the committee. The President's impeachment by the House is undoubted. CONGRESSIONAL PROCEEDING d. THE SENATE transacted no business, and ad? journed early. IN THE HOUSE, the bill punishing Fede? ral officers for unlawful use of money or property was passed. It imprisons from one to fifteen years and fines twice the amount lost by loan, deposit or personal use. Mr. Stevens rose. The Speaker gav,.- notice that demonstrations in the galleries would lead to their clearing. Mr. Stevens reported the following from the Reconstruction Committee : " Resolved, That Andrew Johnson, President of the United States, be impeached for high crimes and misdemeanors in office." A general debate ensued, and the House ad? journed at half-past five to half-pa-1 seven. A vote will be taken on Monday, at 5 o'clock. THE LATEST. SUNDAY NIGHT, February 23.-Stanton has heen lodging in the War Department contin? ually since last Friday. He was recommended to this course by congressmen who apprehend? ed that an attempt would be made to take pos? session of the office by torce. Grant yesterday detailed Colonel Carr, a member of General Emory's ?taff, to remain at the War Office, and the guards have been doubled. A large norn ber of the members of Congress called on Stanton to-day, and held a long conversation with him. They assured him of the support of all the Republican members, and said their party wiuld 4 ct as a unit in both houses, and now, that impeachment was fairly inaugura? ted, there would be no faltering until tho matter was complete. After the impeachment resolution has been passed to-morrow, Stan? ton will go home, as his friends think afier that event the President will venture on no aggressive measures. It is ascertained that Grant and Emory, the latter commanding thc department, will obey no orders of the Presi? dent that conflict with the Tenure Office law, or the expressed will of tho Senate. It has not transpired, however, that the President has is? sued or intends issuing such ore era. In the whole matter so far, the President has confined himself to civil proceedings. He has diiected that to-morrow cn application be made to the court for a writ of quo warranlo against Stan? ton. The President has nominated Thomas Ewing, of Ohio, as Secretary of War. The excitement to-day has been great, but events have made no progress, and this even? ing the feeling is calming down. The mo.'e sanguine Radicals assure circles of listeners that ten days more will do the work; but with each hour they are becoming less confident. The House did not adjourn last night till half-past ll o'clock, and will meet to morrow at 10 A. M. Nearly all the Democratic members of Con? gress?, Mr. Seward, and many prominent citi? zens and strangers called on tho President to? day. The excitement which pervades other circles is not perceptible at the White House. Oar European Dispatches. [PEE ATLANTIC TELEGBAPH.] EE VOLTS IN INDIA-BD8SIA WARLIKE-FENIAN NEWS-THE POSTAL TEEAT?

THE PARTICULARS OF THE REMOVAL OF STANTON -RECEPTION OF THE NEWS AT THE CAPITOL SCENES ON THE FLOORS OF CONGRESS-EX? CITEMENT AND EXTRAVAGANT RUMORS-CIVTL CHARACTER OF THE PRESIDENT'S ACTION ULTIMATE APPEAL TO THE COURTS-INTER? VIEW OP GENERAL THOMAS WITH MB. STAN? TON-GENERALS SHERMAN'S AND GRANT'S AD? VICE TO STANTON, ?C. The Washington and Baltimore papers of Saturday como to us laden with the details of the recent exciting and revolutionary events which havo thrown the national capital into a ferment. The correspondent of the Baltimore Sun, who gives the most clear and connected statement, telegraphs under date of Friday eight : There has been to-day more excitement, speculation, misapprehension and confusion of facts iu consequence of the removal of Mr. Stanton from the office of Secretary of War, than has been observed probably heretofore, in reference to any important occurrence in the capital. The action of the President became known generally about two o'clock, and instant? ly the news spread all over the capitol, and shortly after was known in all parts of the city. The first impression among the opponents of tho administration was that the direction of the Executive to General Thomas wis a mili? tary order, that it was to be carried out, if exe? cuted at all, by resort to military force. This impression yet prevails to some extent, and it is stated that the Senate was induced to go im? mediately into executive session m consequence of the same erroneous idea of the purpose of the President. All kinds of extravagant rumors are afloat to-night of what has taken place and of what is to bo done. One report says the 82nate, which was in session until about 9.30 to-Jight, appointed a committeo to inform Mr. Stanton tiiat bo must not give possession of tba War Department to Mr. Thorne ?. Another, th*t all military officers in the I lotrict are ordered to report for duty to-night to General Emery, commandant of this military depaitment. An? other just now comes that General Lorenzo Thomas bas been arrested by order of General Grant. THE NEWS TN THE SENATE. These are specimens of the many rumors afloat at ll o'clock to-night. The real facts are that tb a President's action iu all that has been done to-day is purely of a civil character, and in nowise partakes ol' the military. His pur? pose is simply to remove one officer and ap? point another ad int?rim, and if tho first re? fuses to obey the order, then probably to test tho matter by regular legal proceedines in the civil courts, or getting possession ot the office through bis od interim appointee to compel Stanton to seek his remedy by writ quo war? rante, or other procedure that may be lawful to bring the matter before thc courts. General Thomas being in possession of au office in the build ng of the War Department, he was appointed Secretary ad interim, and an order ie iB6ued removing Mr. Stanton, and di? recting him to turn over to General Thomas the papers, property, &c. General Thomas calls about noon on Mr. Stanton, informs the latte r that ho (Thomas) has been appointed Sc tary, ?cc, and han accepted. Mr. Stanton inquires civilly, "Do you Eose to take immediate possession, or slit ave timo to remove my papors ?" Gor Thomas replies, "I am now Secretary ari terim, and have possession; you can h?.ve flcient time to remove your papers," and BC interview ended. Shortly before two o'clock this afterm whde Mr. Trumbull was speaking, CoL Moore, one of the private secretaries of President, appeared at tho door of the Sen with an armfull of executive documents, soon as they were transferred to the Preside desk there was a rusb of Senators to I quarter, and Mr. Sumner was the first to rc tho spot, and toro off tho covers with g; eagerness, and read the contents with t Sressed excitement. A message of the Pr ent announcing that he had, by virtv.c of power vested in him by the constitution, moved Mr. Stanton from tbo position of Sci tary of War, and appointment of General renso Thomas as Secretary ad interim, was drat one opened, and the whispering comme and threatening exclamations of tho cn around the desk grew so loud as to drown voice of Mr. Trumbull, in possession of floor. The envelope containing thc nomi tion of General McClellan as minister to Gr Britain was next opened, and impatier tossed asido with sneers. Tho nominatior General George H. lhomos as brevet Lieut ant-General next appeared, and was grce with exclamations of astonishment. So temporary confusion was occasioned, gro wi out of the action of tho President in regard the two Generals Thomas, which scorned to tonsify the into; est and produce spoculati and iuqrury as to what this mark of favor the President meant. The news quickly spread over tho chanib Mr. Trombull, who still kept up bis remar] being tho only Se i ator ignorant of what b transpired. An impromptu committee, cc stating of Messrs. Catteli. Cameron, Chan and Tna\er, immediately took tbo S<matj c: riage and proceeded at a rapid paco to tho W Department, whero they found Hr. Stant looting as serene as a summer morning. ' their supplications to hold ou until tue li born blow, he returned an answer that no alai need be entertained; that wbon ho left the < flee it would only be by main force. Tho Sen tors tb en rushed over to Gen. Grant's of? and notified him that he was expected to stai by Congress in this new crisis. Gen. Gra was silent. Ho may have smoked, but lie sa nothing. The instant Mr. Trumbull ceased spea'in Governor Morton moved to go into executi session. Mr. Trumbull objected, as it had bc? agreed to take the vote to-day on tho pendil Reconstruction bill, when Mr. Fessewdcn to him that he presumed he would mako no o jection if bo knew the importauce of the exec tive business. Tho motion wa? then carrie Mr. Sainsbury alono voting in tho notative The newe flew like wildfire along tho corr dors, penetrated tho committoo rooms, ai. reached the House of Representativos. Soc lots of excited men were gathered in the hal surrounding the Senate chamber, discussin tho coup d'etat, as it was callod, and the dil puto between tho partisans of Congress an tho President waxed high. Tho President friends expressed their gratification that li was showing nerve, and tho adherents of Cor gross insisted that tho backbone of that bod neoded no stiffening, and that it would soon b found who was the strongest. During thi ?imo prominent Radicals of tho House, inclut ing Messrs. Bingham, Boutwoll, Ashley an others, had come over and sent in for some i tho Senators. It woe suggested that tho papers bo at one senlto the Rouse, and tbo promise made tba that body would send over a bill of inipeacli ment in lass than forty-eight hours. Mr. Fes senden came out calm and talked quietly, bu very decidedly, but soon went back. Mr. Chau dler came out blustering and laughing noisily and said it was all righi now ; they bau got bin (tho President) to commit the overt act. Hi colleague, Mr. Howard, carno out with the sann self-satislied smile wreathing his counlenanci which spread over it wbcu tho vote rejectin: Governor Thomas was announced. The habit uesof tho capitol say that for yenrs there ha? not been such excitement as that of to-day Tho dozen or more telegraphic oporators ii the building were kept constantly biiBy ii sending off tho latest bulletins, and tho rc sounding click of their instruments added tc the liveliness of the scene. Tho army of cor respondents wore flying hither and Umter en deavoring to catch tho latest reports, and al were listening anxiously as occasionally tht reverberating tones ol the speakers itisid< would become audiblo upon the outer air Anxious inquiries wore made as to how lonf the Senate wonld remain in executive session and word was received that the duration woulc probably be many hours. About ? o'clock a statement was circulalcc that the Maryland Legislature had resolved tc refuse on the part of the Stat ; to pay any gov ernment taxes until Senator Thomas wits ad milted to his seat, and this rumor added fresl fuel to tho flame. Six o'clock arrived, and the Senators cami oot by turns to tho refectory, and after fortify ing the inner man, retired once more througl tho closed doors, and this strengthened tb< impression that they intended lo mako a nigh of it. For tho first threo hours tho speedie! were pretty much confined to tho Conservativt side of the chamber, and wore mainly in de? fence of the action of thc Pr?sident in thc premises. Senator Bayard spoke at groat length, re viewing tho Tenure-of-Ollico bill, and contend? ing that it encroached on .the constitution?' {irerogatlves of tho Exocutive, and was fol owed by Messrs. Dixon, Hendricks anl Buck alew. Mr. Howe ropliod to theso arguments and maintained their unsoundness. Mr. Sum? ner roaied very gently, and advocated a return of tbe mcssago to the President, or its refer? ence to the Military Committeo. THE NEWS IN TUE HOUSE. The sceno in tho House, too, was also ono ol great animation this afternoon. Pending thc consideration of tho naval appropriation bill, in Committee of the Whole, a nulabor of execu? tive documents wero laid upon tho Speaker's desk, and at tho first opportunity when thc committee had risen to close debuto upon a ?aragraph, they wero presented to tho llouso. he only document of special intercut, how? ever, was tho commun] ?ation of the Secretary of War announcing that ho had received iiulico that his services us head of the War Depart? ment were no longer required. The Radical members did not scorn to fully appreciate the force ol' tho President's action tit first, and without much commcut it was re? ferred to tho Committee n Rcootiatrnclicm, although Mr. William Lawrence inadu ?1 feeble effort to raiso a select committeo. Tho House then again wont into Committee of thu Whole. Aftor a while, however, light seemed to dawn upon them, and the result of a consultation be? tween Boutwell, Butler. Ashley, Farnsworth and others was; that; a ?uotiou wus made that the committee rise, the mover, Mr. Boutwell, stating that he thought tho exigencies of tho country demanded that to-morrow should be devoted to business instead of debate, as had boon previously ordered by tho House. The committee, however, refused lo riso, but a few minutes thcieaftcr Mr. Butler was moro suc? cessful, and tho pleasuro at his success was in? dicated in tho satisfied smile that overspread his countenance, and thc manner iu which ho rubbed the pal ns of his hands together. Ho at onco submitted a motion to reconsider tue vote whereby to-morrow's session was ordered to be devoted to debate, and was about to give his reasons lor the motion, and had gos so for as to make the remark about two Secretaries o? War, when his ?loquence was cut short by a point of order, made by .Mr. Eldridge, Ih.?t a motion to reconsider was not debateable. Tho House, however, reconsidered tbo action taken earlier in the day, aud decided that to-mor? row's session should bc devoted to bu-ines*. No further allusion was then made to the subject, but there commenced at once a search for law books, over which Butler, Boutwcil, Kelley, Ashley, Williams, of Pennsylvania, Clarke, of Kansas, und others of tho impeach? ment ring, earnestly pored. Tho imperil rs think they now have .Mr. Johnson iu a net from which he cannot possibly escape, and their spirits have risen in consequence. While the vote upon reconsideration wat; be? ing taken, Mr. Pike, of Maine, who has hither? to been one of tho moderate tuon of the House, made the remark, "up, uow, all who aro for impeachment"-whereat Mr. Butler was so well pleased that he lett his scat and patronizingly patted Mr. Pike upon tuo back. While all this was going on Mr. Stoveos was notiu the House, but a messenger was dispatchod to inform him of all the circumstances. Mr. Impeacher Ashley was apparently ono of the happiest men in the House, and be ut once set about to write something, which every one supposed was a resolution of impeachment, but he was too slow for Mr. Covode, who is also ambitious of distinction aa a prominent impeacher, just before the adjournment ii duced as a question of privilego a resort declaring that Andrew Johnson, Preside) the United States, be impoached of high cr and misdemeanors. This was referred tc Committee on Reconstruction also, and a n ing of the committee has I cen called for o'clock to-morrow, when the subject WL discussod and resolutions of impeachment be urged at once. Mr. Stanton's son was at tho office of Secretary of the Senate just before si o'clock, and pronounce -J untrue tho staten iu an evening papor that his father had a cated. At seven o'clock Mr. Edmunds off a resolution providing for th; return of message to thc President, and that the Soi do non-coucur in bis removal of Mr. Stan To this a number of amendments were offe making the language much stronger, contle ng the President for trampling on tho law Congress and styling his conduct revolut ary. The debato on these various amendmt wu's very extended and exciting, and pari pated in by nearly every membor of Senate. At nine o'clock a rumor was brought to capitol that the President had telegraphed Genoral Hancock ordering him instantly Washington, and a few minutes later anot rumor came that Mr. Johnson had issued order to Goncral Grant to detail a file of i diors and eject Mr. Stanton by foi ce. ll 8eugera between Mr. Stanton and the Rad senators woro going to and fro. The employ of the War Department all lett at the us hour tl?s afternoon, but Mr. Stanton remaii in his office and announced his intention pass the night there, sending out for refre monts. Tiie crowd in tho halls has comme cd to thin off. Hons. Garrott Davis and Reverdy Johnt havogone home. At 9.35 P.M. Hie doors of the Senate w< thrown open, and the Senate adjourned-i executive session having lasted over sei hours. Tho following preamblo and. r?solu Moss Senator Wilson were paaspd by a vote of 29 tx "Whereas tho Sonate baa received and c< sidcrcd a communication of tho Preside etating that he had removed E. M. Stanti Secretary ot War, and had desiccated tho / jutant-Gonoral of tho army as Secretary od :erim, "Therefore bo it resolved by the Sonate the United States, That under the Constii tion and laws of tho United States, tho Pre dont has no power to remove the Secretary War and designate any other officer to perl'01 tho duties of tho office a* interim." Tho following resolutions wore offered Senators Corbett and Pomeroy, and warmly u vocatod, hut it was thought better to cou tho resolution in as moderate a tono as posi hie: "Resolved, That the removal of the Hon. M. Stanton and tho appointment of Gonoi Lorenzo Thomas as Secretary of War ad tm rim is an act unauthorized by law, eubversi of tho provisions of the constitution, and, thc judgment of tho Senate, illegal and void. "Resolved, That tho removal, Ac, is an a unjustifiable on tho ground of necessity to pr mote tho public interest or preserve the pu lie property, and is without precedent in th history of tho government, and a violation c tho rights of tho Sonate to advise and consei to the qualifications of porsons holding offici and is hereby declared to be illegal and void Beforo leaving Ibo chamber, a consultatic was held by some of tho Radical senators, ai tho son of?ocretary Stauton, who had inti raeai i timo entered, was warmly takon by tl hand by the senators. Mr. Wade asked, 'Ts your father in his 0 flee ?" and, to tho affirmative roply, responde "It is all right." Copies of tho resolution which had bee rmsBcdwcre ordered to be delivered to tl President and Mr. Stan on. To-night th Senate determined to sit to-morrow for Ihopui pose of taking further action if any is necoi s a ry. Tho hotels and other public placos woi thronsed uutii past midnight with persons dil cussing tho all-absorbing topic. Genoral Thomis states publicly to-night thi it is his ; urposc to tako possession of tho Wt Department to-morrow. Thc later developments of thia trouble wi bo found under our telegraphic head. CORRESPONDENCE OF THE PH CS IB NET AND GENI RAL SHERMAN-COMMAND OF THE NEW DI PARTMENT.

The letter 1 thoroughly respectful in tono, and is an eames protest acainst being relieved from his previ ous command. Guneral Sherman requests th' President to revoke BO much of the order crea ting, the now military division as relievei him from the command of tho Militar Division of tho Missouri, because for man; reasons tho general interdata of the countrj require his prcsouco there ; that certaii important movemonts commenced by hin should have his personal supervision unti completed ; because it is eminently mon convenient und agroeablo for him to remain ii Missouri, and chiefly because ho feels a strone repugnance tokbcing implicated in the pol?tica schemes mid intrigues of the nutional capital General Sherman, however, did not intimate any intention of resigning, but signified his willingness to obey tho order should tho Presi dent insist 011 obedience Thc arguments pre ?outed by General Sherman were urged with .such force and earnestness, and withal so re? spectfully, that tho President at onco tele graphed him, acknowledging its receipt, and stated substantially that, in view of the objec? tions suggested lo assuming the now command, he (Sherman) would not bo required loc?me here, but should romain in command of thc department of Missouri. Gcnenl Sherman re? plied by telegram, lhauking the President for relieving him trora tho effect of tho order directing him to make his headquarters in this city, and tho President therouDon directod a revocation of so much of the order as assigned General Sherman to tho command ot the new department. That department remains estab? lished, however, and it is expected ',hat tho President will shortly name au officer to take command of it. REVOCATION OF THE ORDER ASSIONINO GENERAL SHERMAN TO THE ATLANTIC DIVISION. So much of Genend Order No. 10, issued by tho Prosidciit, as assigns Linutenant-Goneral Sherman to the command of thenowly croatcd Military Division of the Atlantic, with the headquarters in this city, baa been revoked, and General Sherman will continue to remain in command of tho Military Division ot the Missouri.

It is a fight between liberty and kw ou the ono hand, and military despotism 011 thc other. I LETTES OF GENERAL PHERMAN TO THE PRESI? DENT. j Lu connection with the recent imbroglio in which the President, General Grant, and Gen? eral Sherman wore parties, we publish l;he fol? lowing letter from General Sherman to the President, which speaks for itself : WASHINGTON, Saturday, January 18. I neglected this morning to say that I had agreed to go down to Aunapolis to spend Sunday with Admiral Porter. General Grant also has to leavo for Richmond on Monday, at 6 A. M. At a conversation with the Gen? eral, after our interview wherein I offered to go with him on Monday mornir g to Mr. Stanton, and to say that it was our joint opinion be should resign, it was found impossible, by reason of his going lo Richmond and my going to Annapolis. The General proposed this course. He will ell upon you tc-niorrow, and offer to go to Mr. Stanton tb say. for the good ot tho service and of tho country, he ought to resign. This on Sunday. On Monday I will again call on you, and, if you think it necessa? ry, I will do tho same-call on Mr. Stanton aDd tell him to resign. If bo will not, then it will bo time to contrive ulterior measures. In the meantimo it BO happens that no necessity ex? ists for precipitating matlers. "Yours, truly, W. T.

Without a good digestion there can neither be t odily comfort nor mental enjoyment Between the stomach and the brain there is a close i nd wonderful alliance. If the one is disordered Ibo other is gloomy, dejected. Incapable cf effort, i nd indifferent to all that makes life agreeable to the healthy. Is this a condition that any rational human being is willing to endure, when the means of certain, I m mediate and permanent relief can be obtained everywhere? The Dyspeptlo has his fate In his own hands. Ii ic chooses to banish forever the disorder that racks ila body and disturbs the mind with nam .ess hor? rors, he has only to step to the nearest drug store ?nd procure a supply of HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS. No phase of Dyspepsia bas ever yet resisted the alterative, tonic and anti-bilious operation of this po? tent vegetable specific. It literally regenerates the lethargic stomach; rouses Into healthy action the i orman t liver; puts to flight th? dismal fancies that ocset the mind; gently relieves and regulates the Dowels; strengthens the enfeebled nerves; restores the appetite, and makes, as lt were, a mew ctazAirmE of the desponding and debilitated invalid. Ladies who Huffer from indigestion have only to toko a small doss of this pure vegetable corrective* once or twice a day, to secure entire exemption from the pains and penalties of a weak stomach and that perfect functional regularity, which but few of the sox uninterruptedly enjoy. 6 February 34 IS- ROYAL HAVANA LOTTERY. -PRIZES CASHED AND INFORMATION FURNISHED.
