DUDLEY FIELD TN THE M'ABDLE CASE-TAKING
THE OATH-HANCOCK NOT TO BE BELIEVED
THE ,;IBON-CLAD" MODIFIED-'ELECTION OF
SEN ATOE FBOK UAH YT, AND.
WASHINGTON, March 6.-?-Dudley Field, in
arguing the McArdle case, took the ground
that the preambles to tho Reconstruction bills
were false, hence the extreme measiuco were
unnecessary, ait well as unconstitutional. Tho
speech has been much praised.
Reverdy Johnson aldne took tho oath on a
Bible, which he called for; the other senators
simply held up the hand.
It is stated tlis t the President said last night
that General Hanccck would not bo relieved.
The Douse to-dr.y passed a bill modifying
the iron-clad oath for persons from whom
political disabilities have been removed by act
ot Congress!
In the absence of Judge Chase the McArdle
caso was postponed to Monday.
At Annapolis, Maryland, on thc third ballot
to-day, George T. Vickers, of Eent County, was
elected United States Senator, vice Thomas.
He was an officer of the Union army.
The debt statement shows a decrease of
debt, less cash in the treasury, ol seven and a
half millions. Coin in the treasury one hun?
dred and six million five hundred thousand.
Currency twenty-one and throc-qnartcr mil?
lions. Tho revenue to-day five hundred thou?
sand dollars.
There was a very short Cabinet session, in
which ail were present but tho Secretary of
War. , . i
Congressional.
WASHINGTON, i-iarch G.-ls THE SENATE a
communication was presented from tho Presi?
dent relative to consular interference tn Italy,
which was referred to tho Committee ou For?
eign Relations.
The Secretary of the Treasury was asked
relativo to thc disposition of eight hundred
thousand dollars in the hands of Colonel Holc
bard, Chief Quartermaster Department of the
Gulf, accruing Irom the sale of captured and
abandoned property.
.At 1 o'clock, Judgo Chase entered and called
the Senate to order. The journal of yester?
day's impeachment proceedings was read.
Judgo Chase announced that the first business
was a motion to postpone Wade's swearing un?
til othcrB were sworn. Dixon commenced
speaking; Drake called him to ordei under tho
procedure rules. Chase decided that the pro?
cedure rules could only apply after tho court
was organized. Drake appealed, but Chose
was sasta;ned by the following vote:
Yeas.-Anthony, Buckalew, Corbett, Davis,
Dixon, Fessenden. Foster, Frehnghuysen,
Grimes, Henderson, Hendricks, Johnson, Mc
Croery, Morrell, of Maine; Norton, Patterson,
of Tennessee; Pomeroy, Ross, Saulsbury, Sher?
man, Sprague, Van Winkle, Wiley, and Wil?
liams- 24.
Nays.-Cameron, C?ttell, Chandler, Cole,
Conkling, Conness, Drake, Ferry, Harlan,
Howard, Morgan, Morrell, of Vermont; Mor?
ton, Nye, Stewart, Sumner, Thayer, Tipton,
Wilson and Yates-20.
Applause followed which was promptly sup?
pressed. The debato proceeded when Hen?
dricks withdrew his objection, when Wade was
sworn and the organization completed. How?
ard moved that the managers be informed.
Chase said boforo putting that question to the
Senate, the Chief Justice thinks it to bo hi?
duty to submit to tho Senate tho rules of pro?
cedure. In thc judgment of the Chief Justice
the Senate is now organized as a distinct body
from tho Senate, sitting in its legislative capa?
city. It performs a distinct function. The mem?
bers are uuder a different oath and the presiding
officer is not thc President'(emp?re, but tho
Chief Justice of the United States. Under
these circumstances tho chair concurs that the
rules adopted by the Senate in its legislativo
capacity are not rules for the government of
the Senate sitting for the trial of an impeach?
ment, unless they be also adopted by that
body. In this judgment of the chair, if it be
erroneous he desires to be corrected by the
judgment of the court. Therofore, if 1t be
" permitted, he will take the sense of tho House
on this question, whether the rules adopted on
the 6econd of March Bhall be considered as thc
rules for the proceedings in this body. The
Senate responded aye, and Chase enid then
those rulos will be considered the rules of this
body.
The managers then entered, and at. their
instance, on morion a summons was issued to
the President, returnable on Friday thc 13th,
to which time the court adjourned.
Wade thon took t' Chair, and alter a short
legislative session, the Senato went into execu?
tive business, and after adjourned to Monday.
IN THE HOUSE the general business was un?
important. The impeachment managers were
allowed to Bit during tho sessions, scud for
portons and papers, and examino witnesses
under oath.
Thc consid?rai ion <Jf the Tennessee election
c2?te was resumed, when tho bil! relieving But?
ler from political disabilities was passed by a
vote of 88 to 28.
A bill was introduced relieving John Young
Brown from political disabilities, and which
was roferrod to the Committee on Elections,
when the Houso adjourned.

aB to except acta of kindness by parents to

ed. Another clause was adopted disfranchis?

THE BURNING OF BARNUM'S MUSEUM.-The
ollowing particulars of tho second conflagra
ion 'vinci] has destroyed Barnum's famous
nirscum ir. New York, will be road with in
orest :
The fire broke out shortly after midnight in
Jamima's Museum, in the portion occupied
pr Van Amborg's Monagenc. So rapidlv did
ho flames Bpread that it was found impossible
o save any of the larger animals. The veils
d'the animals, as the flames reached them,
rere appalling, and they bounded from side to
ide, or darted madly against tho bars of their
!ages, in vain efl'oits to freo themselves. A
bw animals, among them u kangaroo, a small
eopard, a few monkeys, together with tho peh
an and a variety of" other small birds were
gotten out. The electrical machino was also
aved. On thc Mercor-strcet side the police
,nd others were more successful. The giraffe,
wo camels, a pail- of Japanese cows, a Bur
uese cow, a lama and a variety of small ani?
??is were got out. Many ot them had narrow
scapes, and a few were slightly singed. TJJJB
ircuicn were at work at another fire in Spring
Ireot, and whou they arrived the building was
t rapped in flames. In a short time the in
erior was burned out, and the adjoining build
ngs seriously damaged. The side of the Prcs
ott House was on fire at one time, but was
aved by extraordinary exertions. Tho thieves
ii thc confusion, managed to appropriate a
onsiderable amount of property. Several
poe tutors were relieved of their watches end
-allots. Thc loss on tho museum autLcon
euts, including Van Amburg's menagcrio,
rill amount to $500,000 ; insured, but to what
mount could not bo learned. The basement

bout $2500 ; insured. Basement of 451, occu?
red by Scrgtcr und Clinton as a sample room,

THE PB0GBE8S OF IMPEACHMENT-BADICAL SEN?
ATOES LF.GLNNING TO REALIZE THE CONSE?
QUENCES -VADE UNPOPULAR AS PRESIDENTOF
THE SENATE- THEIR FEARS OF TTTTVf AS PRESI?
DENT OF THE UNITED STATES VICE JOHNSON
REMOVED-WHAT A LEADING BADICAL SENATOR
SAYS-THE AMENDED ARTICLES OF IMPEACH?
MENT.
As the impeachment^ movement progresses
step by step men begin to realize its impor?
tance and estimate its consequences, Parjicu
larly is this the case among Radical Senators,
who cannot avoid, however cautions they may
try to beK giving somo intimation as to the pri?
vate views of the party, and of the probable
motives and feelings which more or less must
conti'ol their action, oven while sitting as a
Court of Impeachment. The Washington cor?
respondent of the Baltimore Gazette writeB
under date of Tuesday last:
There ?B good reason to believe, in the first
place, that tho present presiding officer of the
Seuate, Ben. Wade, is very unpopular, even
with his Radical colleagues. It is very certain
that he could not now receive over onerthird
of the 8enate for tfio position he alreadv
holds, and the peculiar circumstances of tho
case only prevent tho" Senate from select?
ing another presiding officer. Just at this
time, leading Senators say this would be done
but for the fact that it would appear tho Sen?
ate had determined in advance to convict, and
was selecting mother man for tho succession.
This is all which now saves the neck of tho
lover of Mother Goose's melodies from 'being
wrung. It is also whispered around, confiden?
tially, in Radical c?reles, that tho fact toat
Wade would succeed to the Executive power
should Mr. Johnson be removed, will be a
strong card in favor of tho latter. Fessendcn,
Trumbull and Grimes despise him, and
his colleague, Sherman, charges that his
profanity, moro than anything else, lost
the Badical party the Ohio Legislature. Again,
it is said that apprehensions aro entertained
that il Wade should hold the rems of power
Chandler will be the driver, and will run tho
machine to suit his own purposes. This ap?
prehension is understood to be entertained by
several of the leading liadical Senators and
fears are expressed among the impeachers that
it will endanger several votes. Wade and
Dhandler wore on tho waf committee together,
ind those who probably know say Chandler's
influence over Wade is Buch-Chat ho would bo
iblo, at loast, to divido tho honors of tho Presi
lenti&l office, if ho did not ass:.me to direct
;ho whole machinery. All theso facts, tho im
leaohers say, embarrass their movo tienta and
nay defeat their purposes. A leading Radical
Je?ator to-night doclor d to your corrcspon
lont that be would feel much moro certain of
ax. Johnson's conviction, if Fesseuden or
[Turnbull was President of the Seuato.
The movement of the impeachers in tho
louse to-day to amend their articles, has lcd
o much amusing comment on the streets.
Phe reconstruction measures wore amended
emi-annually, but the articles of impeachment
oncocted, reported .ai d pasBcd under tho
peration of a gag law are less than a day old,
.hon il is found necassary to commence
mending and underpinning tho shaky fabric.
Hevens declared that without his .article they
ould never convict the President of any crime",
nd Butler was equally confident if his amend?
ient was omitted there would he nothing left
n which to try Mr. Johnson. Mr. Wilson, thu
hairmon of the comtniitco. was tho only niem?
ur who objected lo the adoption o? Butler's
inendment, and he made a strong speech
gainst it. Ho evidently holds Butler in great
ontempl, as was manifested to-day in his mail?
er and language. It is understood amone: thu
radicals to-night that the urticles as am-.-ndod
ill be certainly reported to-tho Sonate to
?orrow. That" anticipating tho patching pro?
sas so soon bv tho House, tho Smatoln-d.ty

jrrespondonts of tho press, to bo in advance

Tlie patching process, however, had com

10 Senate was postponed for another day. The
jnators sottlod themselves awaiti lazily in

il irrow, and it is understood tho Senato will

rocced at ODCO to proparo for tho trial.
JENES IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES-A
' . FUSS IN THE FAMILY.
A correspondent of tho New York Herald,
ri ting on Monday last, says:
After the adoption of the articles of impeach- .
lent to-day tho House proceeded to olect I ju
lauagers. You aro already in possession of
leir names; but vou haye not heard ol' a little
cene that preceded tho election. Tickets, it
Berns, had been prepaied with the names of
lie candidates for managers with names writ
3n thereon. On these tickets thp name of
lr. Stevens appeared first, then Mr. Butler's,
nd then Mr. Bingham's. Tho order of prece
ence on the tickot.s had been agreed upon iu
aucus on Saturday night, whou it was resolv
d that Mr. Stevens should bc made chairman
nd Mr. Butler hold tho next place, with thc
nderstanding that the latter would have to do
11 the heavy work, as it was considered that
Old Thad"' would bo physically incapable of
.earing up against tho arduous duttos ho
.ould have to perform as tho mouthpiece and
laster spirit of the managers.
When thc time for election- carno to-day,
lOwover, an unlooked for rumpus occurred.
Ix. Bingham, insulted and mortified to llud
limsolf below Butlor ou thc ticko:, gave vent
0 his feelings in a most decided manner. Ho
ras heard to exclaim, while he knocked on his
lesk with closed fist, 'Til bo d-d if I servo
tnder Butler; a iran who denounced mo t-j tho
ountry as a murderer. It is no use to argue,
jontleinen, I won't do it." A crowd ol' friends
assembled around the excited member from
)hio and endeavored to calm his excitement
>y reasoning. Mr. Boutwcll, of Massachusetts,
ippealed to Mr. Bingham to bo calm and let
hings go on quietly, au tho order couid easily
>e arranged after tho election; but Bingham
vas inexorable and inappeasable. Ho repeated
lis determination not to serve under Butler,
md not to allow himself to go before tho coun
rv under auy circumstances as playing second
iddlo to the'Lowell statesman.
Mr. Bingham's manner was so emphatic and
tarnest that there was nothing loft but to make
1 change, oven at thc eleventh jour. Should
3ingham back out of impeachment, even alter
tommittin.r himself so strongly, no ono couid
lay what would bo the consequence 'Hie state
>f the case was, therefore, hastily explained to
be bulk ot the Republican members, and thc
?esult was that when thc volo was announced
?ingham appeared at the head of tho hst,
Joutwoll next, Buller near the tail,- and old
['had bringing up the tip end. This was a
indden prostration of "B. B." and a corrcs
jonding elevation of "J. B.," his deadly one
ny. So much for a littlo vigorous oloq'uoucc
?ot intended for tho public ear.
PBOPOSED ACTION IN THE SENATK.
The first thing the prosecution in the iiu
jeachment trial is expected to du is to chal
engc Senator Patterson, of Tennessee, aa
)eing allied to the Presideut by such close,
private and pcreonal relations as to be deemed
iredisposed in his convictions about tho merita
)f the case. The defence will also, it is said,
diallenge Ben. Wade, on the ground of holi?
ng a personal interest in the trial, and there
ore bringing a biased judgment to ils con
iideration. Thc romovolof theso two will h av o
io other effect on tho ultimate vervdict than a
?impie pairing off.
A HITCH TN THE PEOGEAMME.
A Washington dispatch of Tuesday night to
,ho Baltimore Sun says:
An unexpected hitch occurred to-day in the
mpeachment proceedings in Congress. It
vas last night considered certain that. ?V.e im
Deachmcnt managers would, by ono o'clock
;his afternoon, present lo the Senate the ar?
ticles adopted yesterday in the House, and that
i legal ratification of the proceedings, and a
?ummons to appear and answer would thia
?vening be sorved upon tho President; but ii
ippears that when tho managers met this
norning, new articles wore proposed bv
Messrs. Butler and Stevens, and upon these
propositions iruite an animated discussion

arose. The Butler article wis adopted
managers by four against hreo votes
Stevens' article, after some objections urj
his colleagues, and alteration being mac
unanimously adopted.
When the managers cam? upon the fl<
about three o'clock, some ?U?VO canvassi
stani!/ took place to defeat lae Butler a
which is substantially what vas voted do
the House yesterday. Two o:the manage
dustrioualy moved among thi members tc
opposition to the articles noned. Tho I
crats, who had been dividd yesterday
the policy of voting for Butler's article, in
as they said to load the imfeachment wil
surd;hes, and increase th?<omph'cations<
prosecution, this afternoon determined tc
with Butler, and some of tacm did so, th
securing the adoption of tba mielo.
Just before tbo vole was tiken the pul
of the Democrats became kiown to a po
of the Republicans, who b?cane alarmed
there mieht bo .some deo scheme hi
under tho avowed purposo, md becauso, ii
opinion of some, the Butler article would
immense latitude to discu?sioi and necess
involve tho "examination of agreat numb
witnesses, Such a result weald, to some
tsnt, defeat Hie plans of -the enders in th(
peaebment project, which, ti be perfecta
cording to the design, mustie consuman
and Mr. Johnson must be renoved during
present month.
Tne adoption of the Butlei article, there:
bar? disturbed tho previous harmony and c
pact co-operation of the Republicans in
House upon the impeachment prosecution,

?fiven partial satisfaction tc the opponent

There appears to be no dornt now.that
articles will be presented w tho 8enate

Mr. Johnson to-morrow afternoon, requ?
him to answer at au early da; next week.
It is given out to-night tint two adclitii
articles of impeachment will bo adopted by

From members of tho Soiato it is'lean
that that body has not deieimined to take

ublicatious, committcd n breach of the peace
iicrj was certamly nobody, excepting tbosi
ho had been trained m tho bureau of military
istice, who would say that he was guilty of i
roach of Ibo pence. Such proceedings migh
jinctimcs teud to provoke a breach of tin
eace, and they did so on this occasion. Gen
rd committotl a lawlens act when ho broke
ito tho petitioner's house and directed that he
c carried to pnson.
Tho-publications, it is said, wore inteudod tc
ltiinidntc votera. Tho Stale election was
oing on, which was superintended entirely bj
lie army, which, by moans ol bayonot6, drove
no set of voters to thc polls and unotber awaj
?om them. Tho whole thing ?ps nccomphsh
d by naked lorron-m, and when :u> unarniod
nd peacoable man .expressed his opposition to
itch proceedings through hi? own newspaper,
o was told ho should not do so, aud wasordrr
d iuto custody. Which of the two parties waa
uilty of intimidation-tho aci used or the ac?
asera?
It was said Hint McArdlc hbderoireconalruc
ion. Cons ress desired that a certain eonsti
iti.m or fonu ot soverunieut should ho adopt
d andsuLn.ilio i to tho people for their dc
isiou, and it MUS submitted to a portion only
f tho people oi Mississippi. Hie act of Con?
reas made a 8hOW for the oxpresRion of np
ruuation or disauprobation. Mr. McArdlo
.ns not amoug those who were in favor of tk?t
? institution, anti this was stid to be hiudorim,'
?construction, tho commission of a crime
.hieb thoic waa a right to punish.
No Jndge who brd a comprebinsion of Ins
utv "would ask a man lo plead to a tissue of
bsurdities liko that. Yet if Ibo trial of Me?
ld1:- bad -one em before a military board he
.oui-l uol have had tho slightest chanco of
bcapo, but v,.ndd hnvo been convicted. Mili
jrv commissions i-ovcr disappoint the cxpec
itiuns oi those who order them-. If he had
cen eouvictcJ nobody c.mld anticipate) or cov.
L'ciuro what punishment would huve been in
icte-d. If Hiov could convict him without
v..:>t thev could punish him without measure.
. ii'-v l^d'jusL as good a right to contenue bim
0 the gullowa as to fine him.
If General Ord had desired tho b ood of thir,
ian, and to take his Ufo to settle tho question
lOtween them, ho bad several means m his
lower to ac.-omphah such purposo. He could
iave gone to his cell and strangled him with
lis own hands, or sont half a dozon men to
hoot him, or procured thc sentence of a mil?
lar}- commission lo hang him. All these
bingo would unquestionably be consistent.
)anicl Webster said, years ngo, that miiita
v com missions were aiways organized to cou
ict.
McArdle claimed that bc wns entitled toa
rial by jury. The military commission bad
riven no reason for refusing it. 1 bo appli?
qu ion had been treated with contempt. Ho
?lr. Black) submitted to the court if ti tu?
rana! ol this r-oi-L would refuse, either on ac
ount of ignorance or indlsposr ion, to decido
1 question (if thia laud on this fundamental
)omt, bow could it decide on points moro nu
roi Cunt.
This individual, McAidle.is trying to escape
.8 a fugitive from persecution, lie bas fled
imo for spfet v, mid bc bas laid his bauds on
:uo hoios of thin altai, and he asus for justice.
L'ho broad ernest ion involved does not particn
arly concern bim, but e very man who lives or
?moa within Ihi! jurisdiction ot the Liutr-d
States, and who is liable tobo similarly treated.
.Vbon von answer this question, you will nn
iwer a constitiitionr.1 question, und determine
ho rights of all thc people, auej abapo their
teatimes for ?di time to come.
It was said that tho acts oi Congress winch
lUlborizod tho proceedings of winch the peti
ioner complained was in the spirit ot tho eon
ititution. There was a rule of construction
vbich uo court should disregard, viz: Thai not
mlv the intent but the words of the law should
.io eo plain tli.it. it would bo impossible to raia
afce. Xbeao ads. t>f Congress admitted no
sLa.le ol ambvuifcv. Tliey were intended to
leny the regular nelmmistrntinn of justice to
me sect.on of the country. If ibo acts v. ere
ralid, then the trial by jury was abolished in
tn Staus of the Uui?n, and might be abol
siicd m all thc remainder when Coujre-ss
night think proper. Thew was no cha?es ol'
.:<-apo for the people from the "body of this
loath" except by saying that these lteconstnic
i0u acts arc mill und void.
If these acts are found to be in conflict with
the constitution, the course to be pursued ii
very simple. No person engaged in the exer?
cise of power can ever perform anything valid
unless he keeps himself within the limit of thu
grant. The agent cannot bind his principa,
beyond tho scope of his .authority. In. Eng?
land, where tho monnrch is the depository o'"
sovereign power, and all are subject and swear
personal alleerLuc -., the theory is that the kinj:
can do no wrong, yet if ho evar cross the lint
of legal prerogative the courts say his acts are
void. He alluded to the act of Louis Phillipp*
making the power to suppress rebellion an ex*
cuso to send Geoffrey b' fore a military com
mision, and the declaration of the court thal
i ho order was void. He then analyzed the or?
ganization and limitation of the three depart?
ments of our government, showing that if s
State undertake to do what the gener?lgovern?
ment alone can perform, tho law is void, and
when tho general government undertakes to
rontrol matters within the legitimate functions
of tho State, the law is, in like manner, void.
He maintained that if one department of this
government transgress the boundary of power,
it is surely the duty ol the others to resist it,
in so for as not to lenci its aid and assistance
in carrying out tho act, bocauso if they do so
they become participants in tho crime of usur?
pation. The way to decide tho constitutionali?
ty of this act ot Congress in question was to
compare it with thc constitution itself, and if
found inconsistent, thc matter of fact is that
one goes to the ground and the constitution
becomes stronger for tho attack made on it.
Nobody over pretonded not to understand
che general scope ?md genius of tho constitu?
tion, for it glitters all over with the light of
liberty. We understand that this act of Con?
gress is a gross violation of tho constitution.
It is not only an exercise of ungranted pow?
er, but a seizure of power roscrved to (bc
people themselves, and expressly forbidden,
ami after toking it in keeping it wields the
power to take away tho very rights which
tho constitution waa trarued on purpose to
defend.
Tiio act of Congress totally overthrows the
governments iu thc ten Southern States. Lu
the Northern States no military force is allow?
ed to bo at Hie polia. In tho South the milita?
ry officers drivo up men to tho polls and drive
others away. They superintend the stuffing
ot ballot-boxes, ana if the result docs not suit
their purposo they throw them aside. Hore
we have a free press. It claims as largo a
charter as tho wind, to blow on whom it
pleases, 'l here, if the editor of a newspaper
attempts to exproes an opinion, he docs it at
the poril of being dragged before a military
tribunal.
Mr. Blank said Congress has no right to pun?
ish a single individual lor the most atrocious
crime, oven on confession of guilt, becauso
this would bo a usurpation of power. Much
less lnvo they tho right to hy nine millions at
onco on a bili of pains nncl penalties, and con?
vict them behind their backs without not.co
and lionring. But whether this law is consti?
tutional or not, whether it is outside of tho
constitution or not, ia a ihing fixed and deter?
mined in thc case of Mulligan.
Mr. Black suspended his remarks, owing to
indisposition, and will concludo them to-mor?
row. In nddition to Mr. Black, David Dudley
Field, and Judge Sharkey appear for McArdle,
and Messrs. TiumbtiU and Carpenter lor the
government. .

asr A FEW WORDS TO THE LADLES.
Many ladle?, particularly mothers nursing, com?
plain of a tired, listless feeling, or complete exhaus?
tion, on orbing in the morning. On the wife and
mother devolves the responsibility of regulating the
di.tics of tbo household. Her cores are numerot.s,
and tho mental as weU as physical powers are fre?
quently caUed into requisition. She often finds her
slightest occupation a weary task and existence a
burden, while at the same timo she has no regular
disease. EOSTETTER'S STOMACH RITTERS, if
resorted to at this period, wiU prove an unfailing
remedy for this annoying lassitude. The effects of
this potent agont are soon seen in the rosy cheek
und elastic step of the head of the famfly, as with
restored health and renewed spirits she tokes her
iiecustomcd place in the family circle. If this friend
in need be regularly used, thoso depressing symp?
toms V?ill- norcr liq f?r>rap1nfnr"t nr. i.nrl ual .rtliljr^
would lassitude not be experienced, but many dis.
eisos following its advent be avoided. As a MEDI?
CAL AOENT it has no equal, while its pleasing flavor
uud healthful effects have made it a general favorite,
lt is fn e from all properties calculated to Impair the
nystcm, uud iU operations are at once mild, sooth?
ing and efflriout. All who bavo used the Bitters,
AT i EST ITS VIRTUES and commend it to use.
