\rmiTMV. VT-NTTMRER 787J. CHARLESTON, S. C., WEDNESDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 26, 1868. [EIGHTEEN CENTS A WEEK BY TELEGEAPH. THE LATEST FROM WASHING I ON. PROGRESS OF THE REVOLUTION. [HPECIAL DIST ITCH IO THE DAILY NEWS.] WASHINGTON, February 25-10 P. M.-Not withstanding tiie seoming advantages which Congress and tho military partisans of Scanlon have gained, the President and his advisers are in the best spirits and bide their time without any seri JUS apprehensions. Tho loveo held by the President last night was a completo ovation. The east room was never more densely filled with a brilliant com? pany, and there was far more eagerness mani? fested to lake 7>Ir. Johnson by the hand, and to give expression to sympathy and approval, than is usual on such occasions. Nor is this spirit confined to Washington only. Not an hour passes that the President aoes not receive dispatches from the leading cities, imploring him not to yield an inch, and pledging him the cordial support of an awakened people. The Radicals of the House will delay as little as possible in presenting the articles of impeach? ment to the Senate, but once the latter body obtains control of the case, the proceedings will become slow and cautious to the last de? gree. Your correspondent has just returned from tho White House, where the President and his advisers have been in consultation for tho last two hours. I am enabled to inform you that the President has determined upon c chango of tact cs to-morrow. Heretofore his adversaries have enjoyed a signal advantage in having Judge Cartier, a bitter Radical, pre? siding upon the bench of the District Court. The official position of Cartter enables him to postpone the President's legal redress from day to day, and gains time for the partisans of Stanton. To remedy this the application for a writ of quo warranio bas been abandoned, and to-morrow the sureties of the new Secretary of War, General L. Thomas, will proceed to surrender him to the United States Marshal General Thomas will refuse to give other bail, and will then be sent to jail. Thereupon a writ of habeas corpus will be applied for, and the matter in thal shape will be brought, without delay, before the Supreme Court of the United States. This is the programme which has been arranged for to-morrow within the last hour. An intimate friend of Mr. Bingham, who has seen the draft o' the articles of impeachment, informs mc to-night that one of the leading 1 comments of that document will charge tho ' President with being "an obstruction to recon? struction." [FROM THE ASSOCIATED PBESS.] WASHING TON, February 25.-The reception ' at the White House was remarkable tor the ; unusual crowd, the absence of Radical officials and the presence of foreign representatives. Dispatches of encouragement to both parties continue to come. The Radicals in several lo? calities have fired from fifty to one hundred guns in honor of the house resolution. A special dispatch sent North says that Grant, in a conversation with Wilson, said that the officers of the army are a unit in tbo sup? port of Congress, and that not more than a dozen out of twenty-five hundred would obey 1 an order from the President unless it came through him (Grant). On reading a dispatch from Geo. H. Thomas, declining the brevet generalship, Grant re? marked, "Just what 1 ;?pected from Thomas; hois a good soldier." LATEB- CONGRESSIONAL PROCEEDINGS. WASHINGTON, February 25-IN THE HOUSE a bill was introduced for a ship canal around the Falls of Niagara. A resolution was adopted paying Joh i Young Brown, Wm. E. Smith and C. G. Simms twen? ty-five hundred dollars each for expenses in 1 contesting an election. Stevens and Bingham reported that they had 1 performed the duty of informing the Senate of i the impeachment resolution. Fifteen thousand dollars were appropriated ) for the poor of Washington city, to be disburs- ? ed by the Freedmen's Bureau. The new constitution of Alabama was pre- i sented and referred to the Reconstruction < Committee. ' The consideration of the Naval Appropria? tion Bill was resumed. A new rule was adopted which prevents dila? tory motions by lees than one-third. A resolution was adopted that thc report of impeachment articles Lo debated one day and then voled on without debate or dilatory mo? tions. The impeachment and Reconstruction Conr miltees wero allowed to sit during the session. The House afterwards adjourned. IN THE SENATE Mr. Sumner read the Harvey dispatches, and explained how they carno con? fidentially into his possession. At noon the clerk of the House appeared and announced the passage of the impeachment resolution. The Harvey dispatches were then loosely discussed. Several partisan papers sustaining impeachment were sent to thc clerk to bc read. Mr. Hendricks objected, and on a vote tho Sen? ate refused to hear them. A bill for bridging the Mississippi River at Madison county, Illinois, was introduced. A number of members of the House entered and took seats, and afterwards the Stevens and Bingham Committee entered. Stevens said : Ur. President, in obed ence to the order of the House of Representatives, we appear before you, and in the name of the House of Representatives, and of all the people of the United States, do impoacii the President of the United States for high crimes aud mis? demeanors in office, and we further inform tho Senate, that tho Houso of Representatives will in duo time exhibit particular articles of im? peachment against him, and make good the same, and in their name we demand ihat the Senate take order for the appearance of the said Andrew Johnson, to ans wei to said im? peachment. Wf:de said that the Senate would take order in the premises. A special committee, consisting of Howard Trumbull, Morton. Conkling, Edmunds, Pome? roy and Johnson, were appointed to examine into the impeachment and report their pro? ceedings. The bill making a majority necessary io con? firm the State Constitutions, allowing register- I ed voters to vote anywhere in the State, after ten days residence, he can vote on certificate, affidavit, or other satisfactory evidence of hav? ing been registered, passed by a vote of twenty-eight to six, when the Senate ad? journed. The Administration have abandoned the quo warrardo against Stanto.i, as tbo proceedings against Thomas to-morrow will cover the ground. The Cabinet met ?it noon; all were present except Thomas. Stanton still holds the War Office. His or? ders to the subordioatefi are to communicate nothing to reporters. Grant and Judge Fisher were at the Depart? ment. The excitement has in a measure subsided. An impression is growing that the Senate j proceedings will be a tedious routine. Tho Keystone Club of Philadelphia, the largest Democratic organization in tte State, has resolved itself into a military organiza? tion._ Oar European Dispatches. [PEE ATLANTIC TELEGRAPH.] IMPORTANT NEWE FOB GERMAN NATURALIZED I CITIZENS-TUE FRENCH MILITAR? PREPARA? TIONS-MARKETS, 40. LONDON, February 25.-Notice has been given in the House of Commons that a motion on the subject of naturalization and self-expatria? tion will be shortly introduced. The Independence Beige states' that the military preparations now going on in France are creating great uneasiness, and lead to thc conviction that they are designed to meet other purposes than natural defence. BERLIN, February 25.-The negotiations by the Hon. George Bancroft on the subject of tho naturalization of Germans in the United States have been brought to a successful issue. The North German Bund agrees to fully recog? nize and accord all the rights of exemption from military duty, etc., of native-born Ameri. cans to Germans naturalized according to law as citizens after they have spent five years in the United States. A treaty to this effect was signed by Mr. Bancroft on the 22d. PARIS, February 25.-In the Corps Legis- j latiff, M.

TUE CONVENTION, CONVENTION HELD BY AUTHORITY OF THE RECONSTRUCTION LAWS OF CONGRESS, TO FRAME A STATE CONSTITUTION FOR SOUTH CAROLINA. THIRTY-FIFTH DAY. The convention assembled at the usual hour. Prayer by Rev. E. J. ?netter (coloredJ. The roll was called and journal read. A resolution was offered by E. W. M. Mackey that the convention should moet hereafter from half-past 10 A. M. to 2 P. M., and from halt-past 7 to 10 P. M. Referred to the Com? mittee on Rules. J. K. Sasportas, of Orangeburg, offered a resolution that Whireas, Provision has been made for the payment of tho per diem of members only to the 5th day of March, therefore bo it Resolved, That after the 5th day of Maroh no pay be drawn by the members of this con? vention. Referred to the Committee on Rules aad Regulations. The unfinished business being the Executive article ot tho constitution, the convention pro? ceeded to the consideration ot section 8, reht ing to thc qualification of Governor. Mr. B. 1'. Whittcmore offered the following as a substitute for the section under conside? ration : "So person shall be eligible to the office of Governor who denies the existence of the Su? preme Being, and who at the time of such elec? tion hath not attained the asre of thirty years, and, except at the first election, shall not have beer, a citizen of the United States, and a citi? zen resident of this State for thc two years next preceding thc day of election. No person, whiie Govomor, shall hold any other office or commission except in the militia, at one and the same timo." Mr. Whittemore spoke warmly in behalf of his amendment. L. S. Langley opposed the amendment on the ground that it was not sufficiently compre? hensive. The reiigioua qualification was ap? plied only to the Governor. He wished to seo all the officers of the State embraced. W. J. McKinlay, of Orangeburg, favored the proposition-said it was eminently proper that the qualifications of the Governor should be distinctly and emphatically set forth. J. J. Wright (colored), of Beaufort, thought that to recognize the Supreme Being would be unconstitutional. It was creating a religious tost, and this was contrary to the spirit cf the I United States Constitution. While ho was ot' the opinion that all who dosire to succeed m life should recognize the Supreme Being, he did not seo the necessity of embodying the idea in this especial department of the consti? tution ol' the State. Mr. Holmes, of Beaufort, sustained th*1 tho amendment, but DeLarge, of Charleston, did not believe in touching th j matter at all. The idea of a Supremo Being was in direct conflict with an article in tho United States Constitution, and he desired to be guided by that. Beligioufl teBts were improper and ought not to be applied. B. F. Randolph defended the proposition that a Supreme Being should bc recognized, and quoted the Scripture phrase-"The fool saith in his heart there is no God." Ho hoped no such fool would be elected Governor of South Carolina. Gilbert Pillsbury <iid not b?1ievo in thc im? portance of recognizing the Supreme Being in ;hc Constitution of South Carolina, because it was not done in other constitutions. Tho long and short of his argument was that Providence was a very good tiling in his way, but that it was quite unnecessary to introduce him into politics. C. P. Lesbe arose indignant. Ho said he be? lieved in the Supreme Being; he'd been edu? cated that way; and it was a sorry piece of gratitude for Divine favor extended to the people of this State, especially those assem? bled iu convention, to attempt to ignore Hin existence. They had already spent $800 in trying to strike God out of the constitution, and he thought it was about time to stop. Mr. Whitt?moro, in au eloquent and Chris? tian-like speech, endeavored to bring the con? vention to a sense of duty and respect. He said that even thejndian ?ecognized tho Great Spirit above; that heathen bowed down and worshipped what, in their ignorance, they con? ceived to be superior beings, though made ol stone aud wood; and it cortainly behooved ? christianized community to look up to aud ac? knowledge that Gracious Buler to whom thc people were indebted for every blessing Ihey enjoyed. The previous question being called for, tho d?bate was closed, and the amendment of Mr. Whittemore waa adopted by the large vote of yeas 94, nays 6. General Canby, attended by his porsonal Aide-de-camp and Assistant Adjutant-General, here entered the hail, and on ascending the platform was introduced to the convention by President Mackey, os follows : Gentlemen of the convention : I have thc pleasure of introducing to you Major-General Canby, commanding tho Second Military Dis? trict, a gentleman whose efficiency, judgment and courtesy in tho di?chargo of tho onerous and responsible duties entrusted to him has endeared him to tho citizens of both States under his control. Goneral Canby acknowledged the compliment by rising and very briefly uttering Iiis thanks. On motion of lt. C. DeLarge, th3 convention then took a recess for tho purpose of enabling tho members personally to pay their respects to tbe General, which they did "generally. Tte consideration of the remaining sections i of t. e executive department of the constitu- i tion was then resumed and with but slight amendment, mostly verbal in character, tho entire article was passed to its third reading. The President announced tho following as a < Bpecial committee of nino to draft an ordinance prescribing the mode in which the co.istitu- ! tion shall be submitted to the people for ratiti cation, and providing for the eloction of oihcers: i E. W. M. Mackey, of Crangeburg; P. L. Cardo- i za, (colored), of Charleston; A. C. Bich mond, i of Berkeley; fl E. Havno (colored), ol Marion; i Dr. J. C. Neaglo, of Vork; J. J. Wright (col- I ored), of Beaufort: J3. Odell Duucau, of Mew berry; Joseph H. Bainey (colored), of George? town, and Dr. N. J. Newell, of Anderson. Une or two sections jt tho judiciary article : ivere passed to a third reading, and un motion < of C. P. Leslie the convoution adjourned at lu i ninnies past two. ' Otra ACHME.% T.

Tho Washington correspondent cf the Bal? timore Sun writes, under datG of Sunday svening: i The manifestations of excitement in regard j to the impending impoachment and tho War Department imbroglio aro not HO noticeable to? day, of course, this being Sunday, and busi-. I ?ess suspended, as they wero yesterday. But , nevertheless there exists in tho minds of thc thoughtful more of solicitude tor tbe results of the pending measure in Congress, nnd more of anxious inquiry as to "what next" in thc controversy botwecn the President and Mr. Stanton. Comparatively few persons of any < grade or position acorn to have worked out for themselves tho legal and political problems ? now in process of solution; and many upon 1 whom wo should be able to rely for intelligence i of facts and law, and for guidance iu action, i are befogged, and some are entirely in tho dark J as to the purposes of parlies or tho legal path . that should be followed in order to reach tho peaceful settlement of the supposed or real i threatened clash of arms aud fraternal conflict. Hence there is general disquietude. The faces ci men who piulcss to know all the i innor workings and purposes of the leaders in the impeachment schemo aro absolutely bleached with fear and alarm for tho cotise- I quencos. According to these solicitous per? sons, the impeachers expect to force their pro? ject immediately to ihc cud-that is to a con? viction. They expect tho Senate on Tuesday j next, tho House mean tuno having impeached the President, to lake tho initiative Step iu that body for commencing thu ?rial, and that the Senate will proceed to the culmination of the project with the ceitain conviction und re? moval of the President within ten to (iltoon days; that the Senate, for the put pose oi hur? rying up the deposition ol' Mr. Johnson, v.ill suspend all other business and all existing rules of that body wnich permit debate ad libitum and in extenso, and that i i this hurry and making of special rules for this particular case, possibly some violation of law, or sup? posed or real wrong may bo done to the Exceu- i tivo, which may give him and his sympathizers and supporters warrant for resistance, which being made, wu are at once plunged into civil war. Some of th esa persons niau claim to bc i assured that thcio is a perfect alliance, a tacit \ understanding, between tho impeachers and i tho military power, or rather with General i Grant, that each shall support the other in thia i controversy; that at all hazards Mr. Johnson shall be out of the White House beforo the ides of March. i What foundation there may be for some of i those assertions your correspondent will not i now stop to sot forth. Suffice tor thc present i that these alarms, opiuions and asseverations are felt, expressed and behoved to-night by a large portion of respectable and intelligent citizens and sojourners here; and, indeed, this < concern extends throughout tlio country, as is evidenced by numerous pr?valo telegrams to? day fiom aUquarters ol' tho United States. That somo of the impeachers aro willing, irrespective of means or consequences, to go any length for the consummation of their schemo, even unto instant deposition of tho President before trial, is patent. But there is reason to believe that these extremis.'s arc greatly in tho minority, and that thc Senate cannot be used to gratify thc intemnoratc and passionate, as thc la tier "profess Lu believe. It should bo recollected that, even Were tho Senate willing to proceed in thu hasty and rev? olutionary manner indic!.t.'d by tho impeach? ers, that body cannot take a step in the trial of Mr. Johnson without the presence nt Chief Justice Chase, who, by tho constitution, ia made the Presiding officer when tho President is tried upon articles of impoachment. No one who knows Judge Chase can bc made to believe he will become a parly to any hasty, intemperate or anomalous procedure lo aid 1:1 tho impeachment of thc President, nr that ho will consent to turning tho august Henalo iuto a town meeting, and irish things through by simple resolution. The Chief Justice has already, in the dis? charge ol his ppecial functions upon tho bench, sufficient of imperative dutic3 to engage his time until the close of the present term of the Supremo Court, which ?viii not be likely to ad? journ for two months, it is not probublo that he can bc induced to set aside all other con? siderations and at, once take part in the Senate proceedings, merely to gratify those who sec!; ? 0 dispose of this grave and vitally important | matter in a jiffy. Your correspondent feels confident in assert- | ing thus much in reference to the Chief Justice, 1 though of course thcro is no positivo authoi for it. If this position be correct, then tho : poachmont trial cannot proceed until pern, in May. In the meantime it ia predicted the wli bottom of the impeachment project will bi fallen out by reason of adjudication upon constitutionality of the Tenure of Omeo act the Supreme Court. That court will, by mei of two "ases, shortly got jurisdiction of all the legal questions involved in the cbargps y terday preferred against the President in"I Houne. Tho first case, being the criminal p ceeding against General Thomas, set foi hearing before Judge Cartier next Wednesd The second case will be commenced to-m row, by order of the President, in the form quo vcarrarto agaiust Mr. Stanton. From the known political sentiments ol'soi of thc judges of the District Court in this ci and tue active sympathy they have opei shown for Mr. stanton yesterday and to-di it is assumed that that court will deci the Tenur? of Office law in accordance wi the construction put upon it by thc impoac ers. But it is the almost unanimous opinion lawyers of standing that ultimately the S prome Court, which hos appellate jurisdicti of thc cases, will decide the net uncoustitutio al, so far as it applies to Cabinet officers, an therefore, of course, that neither the Prei dent nor General Thomas havo violated ai law in attempting to remove Mr. Stanton. Such a decision would dostroy the found lion of tho articles of impeachment, which b youd any doubt will bo adopted by the Hou to-morrow, by nearly a strict party voto, on two Bepublicans having expressed a detorm nation to voto with tho Democrats. And s possibly, wo shall not have a trial of impeacl mcnt in tho Senate. It is believed a majori' of Senators would prefer to have proceeding concluded in tho Supreme Court before coi elusion of trial in tho Senate. The occurrences of to-day woro not impo taut. Mr. Stanton still continuos to domic within the War Department building, cathi and Bleeping there, to keep continuous an uninterrupted possession. Radical meniboi of Congress, Judge Fisher, of the Distru Court, General Grant, Mrs. Stinton, an others, have visited Mr. Stanton yesterda and to-day. Attorney-General Stanbery had a consultt lion with the I ?resident to-day relative to th proceedings proposed in court to-morrow, an numeroui friends, members of Congress an othors, havo called on Mr. Johnson to-day. A great many telegrams have boon receive hero since yesterday afternoon from promiuoii Conservatives, advising the President to bo c good cheer, and that ho may with coufidenc rely upon thc support of tho people in tho hou of his trial. Telegrams also came to Bodies moinbcrd encouraging them to stand firm. Mr. Stanton informs nowspaper corrospou dents that the President applied to Goners Emory, commandant of the department a Washington, for troops to be ready to oboy th orders of the Executive, and that Genera .mary replied that all orders for troops mus come through Goneral Grant; that the Presi dent thcu applied to Colonel Wallace, in com maud of soldiers stationed in this city, wh< mswered ?hat the orders must come to bia through General Grant. Mr. Stanton furthci says tho President has requested Secretary Welles to send the Marine Corps to bc ready to morrow to aid tho commander-in-chief, etc. I have tho authority of tho President foi saying that thcro is no word of truth in thc alleged statements ot Mr. Stanton. On the contrary, tho information reached Mr. John 90U that certain significant movements o troops hod taken placo, and Gcucral Emorj n'as called upon to explain what transpired, bul no demand has been mado by tho Presiden! for soldiers of any body for any purpose. This idea of directing the military to execute thc Drdewof tho Executive iu carrying out thc aider removing Mr. Stanton, cr m any way taking pan in tho controversy relativo io the possession ol' tho War Department, originated .lithely outsido of tho Wliito House. AH heretofore staled in these dispute' es, thc President has treated tho whole matter of. tho removal of .Mr. manton rs coming within thu civil law, ami has not proposed or contempla? ted tho intervention ol thc military, directly jr indirectly, in tho execution of his orders or plans. The only uso thus far made of the mil? itary in thc Wai* Department imbroglio has ticen by oidor ol' Mr. Stanton, who hus now a loublo" guard surroundu g the War Office to protect him, and obey his orders, as against thc action of his superior, tho President. General George H. Thomas telegraphs the l'rcsido.:t, thanking him for tho honor con? ferred on bim for brevet, but adding that ho loes not desire tho honor-that he has done nothing since the war to entitle him to it. aoncral Thomas has also telegraphed Vice bTcsident Wadu, declining tho nomination of Brevet Lieutenant-General, and asking that thc Senate might itject tao nomination. ?varr OF geo WARBANTO AGAINST MB. STANTON APPOINTMENT OF THE HON. THOMAS EWING, SB., AS SECBETABY OF WAB. A telegram of Sunday nigl t from tho samo correspondent says : Tho President has directed Attorney-General staulfory to apply io thc fcuprerao Court ol' tho United .States to-morrow morning for a writ ?ito warranto against Mr. Stanton, thus bring? ing the constitutionality ol'tho Tenure of Omeo ?aw directly bolaro the court, and obtaining a ?peedy adjudication of tho conflic!.

Another correspondent of the same paper writes on Sunday night : Tho city continues in a state of feverish ex? citement "owing to the pending impoachmeut nf thc President, and every one who takes an interest in public affairs is anxiously awaiting new developments. lu thc ab ence of facts ru? mors gani currency, and from time to timo as Lhcv aro exploded now ones arc invented to bake their places, such as the alleged arrest of General Grant. All these excito, but do not satisfy Ibo constant demand at hotels and in congressional circles and elsewhere for tho latest intelligence. The Executive Mansion was visited in tho course of to-day by Soc rotary Seward, Adjutant General Thomas and a number of Demjcrotic congressmen. Republican Senators and Bopre uentatives, including Messrs. Conkling, Chand? ler, Thavcr, Wade. Morgan, Judd. Farnsworth, Logan ?nd Boutwcll, repaired to tho War De? partment, lt is reliably ascertained that tho con vers:, lion between them mid tho Secretary of War, bei ut: on tuc pending political topics, led to a comparison of notes, which left no doubt lu their minds that on the impeachment ques? tion thc Itepubiicuus ?Ul act as a unit, lt, was not known l> them that cvon one member would faller or desert his pnrtv, aud meir gene? ral impression waa that tho President will' not otiiv bu impeached but tried, convicted and re? moved from office within tho next ton days. Tho ground they take is that the Bupublicans cannot now avoid tho issue which they say the President has forced upon them, and that hav? ing taken the first step, they must prosecute thc work to a speedy couclttsioD. Nothing was said about tho employment ol' troops by the ITcsidotil. No ono present could anticipate any evc ;l which would render it necessarv, es? pecially as they thought tho Prcsidont could not obtain a military force to sustain him. Those gentlemen, who had conversations with Mr. Stanton, gave the assurance that they would stand by hun to the last, having no doubt of thc success of their cause. There is much earnestness ?ml determination expressed br all of tho Republicans who converse upon the subject. Their speeches in the House may bc regarded as an evidence of the feeling which generally prevail:* amoutr ihe members ot that party in Congress-certiJiily in thc House ot BcpresentaUvcs. Secretary Stanton has not left the War De? partment since last Friday, his Congressional friends having urged him to remain there fur u reason. He, however, contemplates going home ftficrthe Hou-e shall have impeached the President, as the belief among them is that the latter will thus be shorn of hias*gjal in? line ncc, and will make no effort ta**SF<ffft the purpose of (.'(ingress, whose authority they say will be supported by General Grant under the kw-the Junctions of the Executive being sus? pended in effect pending the trial Major-General Emory, who commands the Department of Washington, it is said by Re? publicans, will subject himself to tho imme? diate orders only of the General of the army, and not to those" of tho President. The guard at Ibo War Department has been doubled. Colonel Carr, of Geueral Emory's staff, re? mained there last nirht, by order of General Grant. The President is in receipt of loiters and telegrams giving him assurance ol' approba? tion and support, and Republicans aro con? stantly being encouraged in a similar manner to unfalteringly execute the work they have undertaken. It is stated thal Attorney-General Slanbery. Judge Black and < hades O'Conor, Esq., will defend the President before the Senate. The Radical Senators held two caucuses on the situation yesterday.* Tho first commenc? ing at ton o'clock in the morning, lasted tiro hours, and it was then agreed upon to adjourn the Senate immediately upon tho opening of the session and lo go back into caucus. Such wa3 tho impatience to return to their secret deliberations that tho reading of the journal was stopped before two lines had been finished. Mr. Anthony, who made the motion to adjourn intimated that he did so because of its being Washington'3 birthday, but when a member of tho House made tho motion to adjourn for tho same reason he W.IB mot by taunts and sneers from the Radical members"of that body. The adjournment of tho Sonate took place a few minutes after noon, and the second "caucus was then held, lasting some thrco hours. Tho question ot reconstruction was discuss? ed, but not at any great length, and some fur? ther supplementary legislation in that quarter was determined upon. The important busi? ness, however, w.is the action lo bo taken by the Senato in view of tho now considered cor tain impeachment o? tl?e President by the House. Ibo members of the caucus ore very reticont as to what wns done, and tome of tho usually most loquacious of them declined di? vulging what had actually occurred, stating that a ploJ^o to thi:-' ellbct had been given by all. Enough has, however, been loamed to safely warrant tho statement that the Radicals of thc .Senate will act in tho whole matter as a unit. The Edmunds bill, the effect of which will be to depose tho P.esident from office immedi? ately on tho presentation of articles of im? peachment by tho Houso, was brought for? ward by its author, and its passage urged with groat vohomouco, both by him and a number of other Senators. Both Mr. Trumbull and Mr. Fessondcn opposed it, not only on the ground o? unconstitutionality, os being Char? ly an expos: facto law, but as also having tho effect to damago rather than promoto the par? ty interests. A majority of thoso prosent wero in favor of puttiug t.io bill through, but it was finally decided to postpone final action on it until to-morrow, whoo another caucus will be held, and by that time, Mr. Sumnor says, the two abovo named gontlemen will be ready to fall into the (races, as this is not the first question on which they have been refractory at tho beginning and docilo al thc end. Orders for many millions of gold were sent Et om here yesterday by speculators and otheis, in anticipation of a great advance by reason of the impeachment. In the language of the ring, "there's money in it." HOW SATURDAY WAS SPENT IN THE WAH DEPARTMENT. Tho correspondent of the New Yoik Herald telegraphs under date of Saturday night: Al about cloven o clock General Thomas vis? ited thu War Department and tried to enter tho door nearest tho room of the Adjutant General's office. In tins, however, ho failed, no messenger or doorkeeper being on duty there to unlock tho door. General Thomas thou passed around to tao front door, whero ho was permit ted to enter without moloitation. General Thomas proceeded at once to the room occupied by the Secretary of War, whero ito was met by Mr. Stanton. Thomoetingis represented as having boen of a seemingly friendly character, though somewhat con? strained, both acting and speaking with mark? ed caution. Geueral Thomas said he was in? formed that bo would (iud tho key of his form? er room in Mr. Stanton's office, and tho pur? pose ol' his visit was to get that key. The demand for tho surrender ot the keys was at once refused by Stanton. During tho foregoing interviow, no persons were admitted except Gonerals Grant, Dent and Howard, besides one or two officers of tho department. Several gentlomon called to seo General Thomas, ono of whom was R. T. Mer? rick, Thomas' counsel, and their cards having been submitted t > St m ton instead of thc Gen? eral, admission was refuted. Tho officers on duty in tho War Department, who are in the office with Mr. Stanton, are Generals Townsend and Sehnver, and Colonel Dodge. Stanton has played his game with great shrcwdnoss. Not only will he order all thc officials of the War Department not to recognize Thomas, but ho also ordered all cards for General Thomas to bo biought to him in tho first place. Mr. T. R. Merrick, ono of the advisers of Thomas, called at tho War Department by appointment this morning to meet General' Tnomas, and sent up his card, lt was returned after some delay with tho information that Thomas was not in the department. Thc tact ia, however, thal Thomas was thorc, but was thus deniod by order of Stanton. Between thieu and four o'clock Mr. Stanton's carriage drove up to thc door, brui ?ring his wife. A mossage having been carried to Stan? ton, that,, important individual appeared out? side of tho War Deportment and ventured to tho curbstone without an escort, where ho stood some timo in conversation with his wife. Night drew on apace, however, and no signs of thc enemy aopcariug, tho commander of the War Department sottled himself for tho night, conduced that no further demonstration would bo made. THE STU COOEE 'BETWEEN THE PRESIDENT AND CONGRESS-ITS PROBABLE RESULT. The New York Herald closes a long article on thc news from Washington us follows : Since il is thc Presidency that is at stake in this contest-since it is that guttering prize of all political manouvres that is to bo lost or won-there is abundant motivo for tho issue to bo fought out with spirit, and it in not strange that Mr. Johnson follows np his case with a clear-sighted tenacity. Ho can do all that the ocras ion requires, and come out with clean hands; he will even he held a3 delinquent if ho does not i!o all that the occisi?n requires-de? linquent before tho law and before public senti? ment. As it te the general will that Mr. Stan? ton i-liould not be Six-rotary, thc President asta in B.vnipalhy with that will in removing him, ami has tho luU constitutional porer to do it; nor can it over he advanced against him that he did it in defiance ot any law, since ho has the positive declaration tiiado o;i tho floor ol the Senate that it was not intended by tho framers ot the Tenure of Office law to cover such a case. Ho has, there? fore, freedom of ad ion, with right ou his side, and Iiis adversaries have neither. Bound hand and foot, in doubt at evcrv step whether to turn to tho right or left, the step, however taken, both involves them in violation of the law and damages them in public opinion. In? deed, it is the essence of this last coup that Mr. johnson forces thc country to see more clearly what Radicalism baa done. He shows what tho acts of thc Radicals aro by showing their logical consequence. In developing the positiou of tho Republican party he shows it to bc such that men who havo hitherto felt themselves iu sympathy with tint party find they can no longer adhere to it. Ko has caught the party in a latee position, and os it is driven from point to point by his forcing it, finds that at every advance it loses by defection of the vast misses that will not eeo the interests ol' tr?e country sacrificed to maleo thc fortune of a political coterie or to eave a mischievous and l'aii?t?eal ?dca. In this fl ht ho bids lair to waste the liadieals away to au uncertain and insignificant faction, and thus d.stroy that compact majority that lias ruled the country with such arrogance and tyranny. In this effort he will have the sympathy of the whole people. -Elder Hiram B. dawson has just married the fourth daughter cf Brigham Young. He had previously married the prophet's eldest daugh? ter.
