TANT DECISION IN THE SUPREME COURT.
WASHINGTON, March 9.-The impeachment
managers are examining into President John?
son's famous railroad speeches during his
Western tour. Residents along the route have
been sent for, as well as reporters from distant
points. Tho impression gains ground that tho
President will appear personally on his triaL
Chief Justice Chase is giving the Radicals
trouble by his firmness in insisting on his
rights. It is known that he refused to sign
the writ of summons, on Saturday, until that
document was worded in conformity to his
views.
Some opposition was made in the Senate to
the admission of Mr. Vickers, the new Mary?
land Senafor; but the objections were finally
overruled, and he was sworn in.
The Alliance Insurance Company, of Boston,
insured the ship Marshall arrainst seizure for
eight thousand dollars. The Marshall was
captured near New Orleans, and the under?
writers resisted payment on the ground that
the seizure was illegal. The Massachusetts
court sustained the plea, and the case came
here on an appeal to the Supreme Court, which
confirmed the decision, holding that at the
time of capture that there was a defacto gov?
ernment iu the South, but the effort to draw
off eleven States from their alliance, and set?
ting up the Confederate Government, was ille
*gal, those States bein? still constitutionally
in the Union. Justice Chase and S way ne dis?
sented.
The Georgia case will be heard on Friday,
only, however, on behalf of the complainant.
CONGRESSIONAL.
IK'THE HOUSE, under the regular call, the
following bills were introduced : To reduce the
expenses of the navy and extend the bounty
act; that the next generation should pay the
national debt; that Congress should pay loyal
Southern and Northern citizens alike for sub?
sistence, kc. *
The Judiciary Committee were directed to
inquire into the-sta tus of Texas, relative to tbe
transfer of certain powers when Texas changed
tram, tho government, and the validity of her
acts daring the rebellion.
A resolution that sound policy requires the
gradual substitution of greenbacks for interest
bearing treasury bonds, was introduced; a mo?
tion io table failed by a vote of 56 to 64, and it
ms referred, to the Committee on Ways and
Means after a failure to second the previous
question.
Grant was called on for the Alabama election
returns.
The Senate's amendment to the bill convey?
ing the proceeds of captured and abandoned
property into the treasury was adopted; it goes
to the President. Pending the discussion
Logan told Chandler that a wasp could sting
and an ant bite. Chandler told Logan that an
ass could kick. Logan asserted that he had
information that the clerk of the printing bu?
rean had certificates of the destruction of
eighteen million bonds, whereas no such bonds
were destroyed. The Retrenchment Committee
were ordered to invcsi igct^ the matter.
The Committee of Ways and Tdoons report?
ed a bill repealing BectiouB 94 and 95 of the tax
on manufactures, excepting gas, mineral,
wines, snuff and manufactured tobacco, to
take effect after the 1st of May, whioh was or?
dered to be printed, and the House adjourned.
IN THE SENATE a memorial was presented
from one hundred and di ty Carolina and Geor?
gia negroes, stating their ability and willing?
ness to work for sixty dollars a year, but are
such victims to persecution that they desire
one hundred dollars to go to Liberia, which
was referred to the Judiciary Committee.
Joseph Segar asks compensation for his
property, taken by government, near Fortress
Monroe.
When the credentials of Mr. Vickers, the
new senator from Maryland, were presented,
Sumner moved that they be referred to tbe Ju?
diciary Committee, on the ground that Mary?
land negroes did uot vote for the legislature
that elected him, and therefore that govern?
ment was not republican. ?Ir. Connoss said j
that, under Sumner's plan, five of tbe New
England States and Wisconsin would have to
carry on the government. The motion was
withdrawn.

THE CONVENTION".
FOBTV-STXTH DAT.
The convention yesterday, with a degree of
unanimity which was wholly unexpected, re?
vised its hasty action of Saturday in adopting
the ordinance which made it necessary to pre?
sent the ordinances and constitution on one
ballot and required the vote of tho people
therefor. It is understood that (Jen. Canby
indicated bis wish to this end, and on motion
of R. C. DeLarge the whole subject was recon?
sidered, a
Mr. E. vf. M. Mackey then introduced a sup?
plemental ordinance which amends the original
eo that the second and fourth sections provide
that tho constitution sho.ildbe submitted by
itself.
. On motion of Mr. C. C. Bowen, if. was agreed
that the ordinance invalidating contracts for
slaves should be incorporated in the constitu?
tion, and the ordinance as amended passed to
its third reading.
Tho Committee on the Legislativo part of the
constitution, to whom had been referred Sec?
tion 4, of the legislative article of the consti?
tution, reported the following substitute for
the proviso appended thereto :
Provided, That until the apportionment
which Bhall be made upon the next enumera?
tion shall take effect, representation ot the
several counties as herein constituted shall be
as follows : Abbeville 5, Anderson 3, Barnwell
6, Beaufort 7, Charleston 18, (Berkeley and
Charleston being united), Chesters, Claten
don 2, Colleton 5, Chesterfield 2, Darlington
9, Edgefield 7, Fairfield 3, Georgetown 8,
Greenville 4, Hon y 2, Kershaw 3, Lancaster
2, Laurens 4. Lexington 2 Marion 4, Marl?
boro 2, Newberry 3. Oconee 2, . Oran ge burg
5, Pickens 1, Richland 4, Spartanburg 4,
Sumter 4, Union 3, Williamsburg 3, York 4.
After discussion the substitute was adopted,
and the section passed to its third reading.
The nett important subject taken np was the
report of the Committee on Franchise and
Elections.
One af the provisions of this article is, that
"Every person coming of age after the year
1875 to be entitled to tho privilege of an elector
shall be able to read and write; bi t this quali?
fication shall not apply to any person prevented
by physical disability from complying there?
with; provided, further that no person Bhall be*
allowed to vote or bold office who is now or
may be hereafter disqualified therefor by the
Constitution of the United Status; but the
General Assembly Bhall have power to remove
such disability by a two-thirds vote."
To the first part of this clause, S. G. W.
Dill, of Kershaw, took especial a od animated
exception, and moved to strike out all relating
to the qualification of reading and writing. He
said he was sick and tired of sitting then
without doing something for the people. The
object of the article wae Bimply to defraud the
unfortunate and deprive them of a privilege to
which they were entitled as much as other
men. It had been said on the floor of the con?
vention that snch ignorant people were not fit
to cast a vote. Ho deried it, r.nd could not
bolievo that tho man who wrote r,ho article un?
der discussion had a Christian heart in his
body, or expected to see the light of Heaven.
It was not only an oppression but a fraud.
Nearly the whole of tho evening session was
occupied in debating the subject, and various
amendments were offered.
The question being taken on these, it was
decided to strike out the first part of the clauae
above quoted down to the word "provided,"
and also the words "bni the General Assembly
shall have power to remove such disability by
a two-thirds vote."
The yeas and nays being taken on this party
j question, only two delegates dircd to vote
"nay," namely, Henry W. Webb, of George?
town, and Thomas Williamson, of Georgetown.
The entire article, with but slight amend?
ment, was then passed to its third rea.Ung.
A large audience of spectators of Loth sexes
was present witliin tho bar of the house during
both morning and evening sessions; and the
symptoms all indicate that the work of the
body is nearly done.
To-day tho convention will probably adjourn
at noon, so that the nominating convention
may assemble at throe o'clock, when the Grand
Fight will take place over tho State offices.
-A meeting was held at Cooper Institute,
New York, on Monday evening, in aid of Wash?
ington College, Virginia. Among the speakers
were Rev. Henry Ward Beecher and Prof. R. D.
Hitchcock. Letteis approving ot the olject of
the meeting were read from James T. Brady,
Esq.; George William Curtis. Gerrit Smith,
Horace Greeley and others. Appropriate reso?
lutions, in furtherance of the purpose of tho
meeting, were adopted.
-Tho Austrian Emperor has given orders to
the Minister of Marine at Vienna to make all
the necessary preparations for an expedition to
Eastern Asia. This expedition, which is en?
tirely carried out at the expense of the State,
is to be under tbe command of Admiral Tcge

MATTERS IB WASHINGTON.
THE IMPEACHMENT-BRIEF TIME ALLOWED THE
PRESIDENT TO ANSWER-THE PRESIDENT SE?
RENE-HE REGARDS WTMSTTT1 AS THE REPRE?
SENTATIVE OF THE LIBERTIES OF THE PEOPLE.
The Washing'on correspondent of the Balti?
more Gazette '..rites under date of Friday
night, the Ol'* inst :
Tho proceedings to-day in the "Senate," or
"Court," which-.ver it mtv be called at the
time, develop".'. 1 o important facts, beyond a
question of (fruity. Th'; lirjt is, that Chief
Justice Chase cenuct be u.-ed by the Jacobins
to run ?heir n*1 ?. ci.ment machine. While bis
rulings w-K M 'c:i/ correct, and precisely
6uch as wei'j ? o oe expected, yet there was an
undesirable something about them which
satisfied all parties that Judge Chase could not
be counted in the fight on the side of the im?
peachers. The second important fact was that
no time is to be lost in clutching Executive
Sower, and that the same indecent haste which
as characterized the iniui achment proceed?
ings from their first conception to the present
time, ?B to be doggedly follow od up through -
all the stages of the trial No one
had supposed that less than ten or twenty
days would be allowed the President to pre?
pare for his trial; but all decency was outraged,
and an order made that be should bc pres?
ent in person, or by counsel, on Friday next.
Just one week to answer charges which it re?
quired the silvery-tongued Bingham half an
houi to read in the bearing of the Senate. The
proceedings have thus far been ex pane and
under the exclusive control of the manage?
ment of tho Grand Inquest. From this time
forward, the current of events may run less
smoothly with these distinguished gentlemen,
and the Impression prevails here to-night, that
long before this trial closes the American peo?
ple will be forced to the conclusion that it is
not Andrew Johnson who is on trial. Who
the criminal may prove to be, or how many
may find themselves impaled on the sword of
public justice, it is not now the purpose to an?
ticipate. Suffice it to say, that Judge Curtis
ana his associate counsel will have a fine
field m which to display their abilities.
*There may be persons who suppose, and
very naturally too, that President Johnson
is greatly distressed at-the sudden turn affairs
at tho capitol have lately taken, and that he is
grieved at being thus dragged before the high
court of impeachment charged with crimes aud
misdemeanors. Your correspondent has avail?
ed himself of the proper facilities to got at the
truth in order to disabuse the minds of those
who may be disposed, in the kindness of their
hearts to sympathize with Andrew Johnson in
his present misfortunes. Under ordinaiy cir
cumstauc ;s it would be a great misfortune for
a public officer to be arraigned before a court
for trial under charges of crimes and misde?
meanors. But in the present case no crimi?
nality enters into the charges. Criminal in?
tent is alleged in no part of the articles of im?
peachment. No one pretends to say tbo Presi?
dent has been guilty of aught which tarnishes
his honor or lessens him in the esteem and
confidence of his countrymen. The war upon
him is admitted to bc purely political, and is
prompted solely by bitter partisan feeling.
Mr. Johnson regards tho impeachment of him?
self simply as a war upon the constitution.
Ho feels that the Jacobins are assailing con?
stitu? io Dal liberty-not Andrew Johnson. Ina
Cabinet meeting held to-day tho situation was
informally but freely discussed-there being no
business requiring attention-and the Presi?
dent joined heartily in the conversation. He
said his connection with the trial was but the
result of his having possession of the power
the dominant party was aiming to usurp, and
the present movement waB the last desperate
act by which to seize that power and subvert
the government.
The trial, be said, was one in which he had a
deep interest, in common with the whole
American people. This interest he had and
felt-nothing less, nothing more. In his per?
sonal connection with the trial, he.is under?
stood to regard himself simply as the repre?
sentativo of the liberties of the people, and in
this representative capacity will make his de?
fence. Such aro known to bo President John?
son's views of his impeachment and trial, and
he claims to have no interest in the proceed?
ings beyond that of any other patriotic citizen
who is determined to do his duty in defence of
the constitution and the liberties of thc coun?
try.
CHIEF JUSTICE CHAHE AND THE IMPEACHMENT
MANAGEMENT-THE COUBT ORGANIZED, ?C.
The correspondent of the Baltimore Sun
writing on the same date says :
Notwithstanding the crowd was so great in
the Senate to-day, the best of humor appeared
to prevail, and the buzz and hum of talking was
continuous, no one seeming to care about any?
thing the Senate might do previous to the
hour of one o'clock, when the court of impeach?
ment would again be formed. Mr. Wade rap?
ped louder and oftener than yesterday for order,
out it was no use; tue galleries soon learn
what kind of metal a presiding officer is made
of, and shape their course accordingly. Mr.
Wade lacks the grand essential of a presiding
officer, innate dignity.
There were seretal striking points in the
proceedings-as when Mr. Howard left his
seat, and, coming immediately in front of the
Chief Justice, raised the point of order that it
was not competent for one senator to object to
another senator and that there was no power
in the Senate to prevent Mr. Wade from being
sworn in; that the constitution was imperative
on the subject, and it was the duty of the pre?
siding officer to immediately administer the
oath to him. Then with tho evident purpose
of forcing the Chief Justice, in vulgar par?
lance, "to show his hand," Mr. Howard insist?
ed that tho chair should give an immediate de?
cision on the point he had raised, without de?
bate.
By the triumphant and half-insulting manner
of Mr. Howard, and the significant looks which
passed between Sumner, Chandler, Brake and
some others, it was plainly to be seen that the
impeachment party thought they had suc?
ceeded in calling thc previous question. Mr.
Chase, however, was too wily to be caught in
this mnnuer, and threw the onus of dividing
the question on the Senate.
Under thc rulings of the Chief Justice the
court was finally organized. Mr. Hendricks,
after an exciting controversy over points of
order made by several senators to the inter?
ruption of Mr. Dixon having temporarily with?
drawn his objections to Mr. Wade b -inp sworn
as a trier of tue President. Tho only senators
who w?re not sworn in were Messrs.' Doolittle,
Edmunds and Patterson, who are now engaged
in making stump speeches in New Hampshire
The rules framed by the Senate for govern?
ing the impeachment trial were adopted by the
court.
Thc friends of Mr. Wade aver to-night that
he will not vote ou any important questions
during tho progiess of thc trial, even sliould he
not be challenged by the defence. But after'
whfct hus been seen, grave doubts may well b?}
expressed ot this. The extreme Radicals are
charging Mr. Chase with being in the interest
of the President, und it is determined to throw
obstacles in the progress of the trial ; but none
have denied that he has so tar borne himself
with all proper dignity and impartiality. At
one time to-day he seemed a little unnerved by
the perpetual din with which he was beset,
with points of order of the impeachment party,
but he speedily recovered himself.
HOW THE PRESIDENT WAS SERVED WITH THE WBIT
. OF SUMMONS.
A Washington letter dated Saturday evening,
says :
The only circumstance that has transpired
in the impeachment case since yesterday was
the serving of the writ of summons at 7
o'clock thiB evening, ihe seargea.it-at-arms
of the Senute appeared at the White House,
and waB at once admitted to the President's
room, where Mr. Johnson was eugaged in
business with two of his secretaries. After the
usual salutations, the sergeant-at-arms said :
.'Mr. President, I am directeu by the Senate of
the United States to deliver to you this writ of
summon*.'1 at the sume time handing /Mr.
Johnson a sealed envelope and package The
President rophed: "Very well, sir, I will give
it attention." The strgeant-at-arms then bid
Mr. Johnson good overling and withdrew. The
writ is signed by the Chief Justice, and recites
the action of the House of Representatives;
gives a copy of the articles of impeachment;
demands that an answer be made to tho
summons; the President to appear before tho !
Senate n<-xt Friday, and then abide by orders
and commands; tue officer to serve thc writ
personally or by leaving it at the residence or
place of Duainess. lt is expected the Presi?
dent will on Friday next ask for thirty days,
within which to prepare and file an answer.
A Fool ana ms money.
THE APPLICATION OF "JOHNNY STEEL," THE
LATE OIL PBTNCE, TO BE ADMITTED IN BANK
EUPTCT-A FEW INCIDENTS OF HIS CASEER AS
A SULLIONATEE.
Tho Pittsburg Ledger gives the following
sketch of the history of a snob:
John W. Steel, familiarly known as "Johnny"
Steel, and somewhat distinguished as an "oil
prince," having for a considerable longtb of
time enjoyed tho princely income of $2000 per
day, filed, in tho United S ates District Court
last week, a voluntary petition in bankruptcy.
Many of our readers will remember bis roman?
tic exploits in the East, published some timo
ago, during which he is reported to have
squandered several hundred thousand dollars.
After having "sowedhis wild oats," and losing
his oil farm, he found himself in rather strait?
ened circumstances, and was recently compell?
ed to earn a living by driving an oil team.
His indebtedness, a? sot forth in his peti?
tion, amounts to over $100,000. Steel is
a Pennsylvanian by birth,' and is now
in the neighborhood of twentv-tbroe
years of age. He has had bat little edu?
cation, has no business qualifications or
shrewdness, and seems especially cut out by
Dame Nature to attest the truth of the pro?
verb, that "A fool and his money are soon
parted." Of his early youth we know very
little; manhood and riches sprang upon him
about the same time. His interest in the
famous Mcclintock farm and oil wells, in Ve
nango County, bequeathed him by his father,
for a number of years yielded him an income
of $3000 per day. This princely income was
tho moans of awakening in "Johnny" an am?
bition to seek other fields and sources ot
amusomont than those offered io the wilds of
Venango. Wo heard of him first by his lavish
waste of wealth in Philadelphia. Here he
made the acquaintance of Messrs. Skiff & Gay?
lord, of minstrel fame, and one of his first ]
rash purchases was an entire new outfit for tho j
minstrels, composed of velvet coats and vests
and plain trowsers (many of our readers will j
remember the troupe in this uniform). To j
those eccentric costumes he added diamond 1
breastpins of the first water, and a new suit of l
clothes for each member for tho street. 1
Several members of Corncross & Dixey's min- j
strels, of Philadelphia, were also favored in ;
the same manner. j
Another of "Johnny's" eccentric acts in j
Philadelphia is related as follows: Walking ]
along Chestnut-street one day with a friend, i
he espied a boautitul span of horses attached 1
to a splendid carriage, just turning down from 3
Second. To see was to envy; so, hailing tie J
driver, Sam M-, who. as it happened, was j
also thfe owner, "Johnny* coolly asked him if \
be would sell his establishment. Sam looked ?
credulously at the customer, wondering if ho j
were drunk or crazy, when "Johnny" again put i
forward the question: "What will you take for 1
the whole rig?" Som, with a wink, and while 1
knocking tho ashes from his ci'.-ar, doubtless 1
thinking to frighten his unKnown questioner, ;
replied, "Well, I guesB about $7000 will take the i
lot." "Johnny" answered by layiug so ven one j
thousand dollar hills on .the scat of the ve- j
hide, and, taking hold of the reins, coolly j
said, "Hop out;" and "hop out" 8am did, J
while "Johnny" drove off, leaving Sam stand- ;
iug in amazement on the comer. The day was
spent in riding about the city, and spending
money lavishly; toward evening he had employ- -
ed a man to drive, and Anally, while winding
np the day, he reached the Girard House, 1
alighting on the pavement ho asked the driver ?
as to his circumstances, ard learning that be
knew "the grip of poverty," "Johnny" made ,
him a present of the carriage and horses, tell?
ing the driver not to offer thanks, but to "drive
off quick." (
While in Philadelphia, ose of the eccentrici?
ties of his morning walks cn Market or Walnut "
streets, was to watch for o man with a shabby
bat. He would then follow him until he got in
front of a hat store, and then, with a full
swoop, ho would land the offending bat into
the middle of tho ctrcxb, at the same time t
apologizing to the wearer, and asking him into .
the store, where he would bay ti>m the best to ,
be had. 1
"Johnny" never carried any baggage with
him while travelling, purchasing everything as
he required it. Havinj it solved one day to ,
stop at the Continent >l Hotel, instead of his
usual retreat-the Girard-he was driven there ]
in company with a friend, Mr. William B-y, I
a noted merchant of our own city. Sauntering ]
up to the office, he made known his desire to ,
"stop awhile." The clerk asked him as to the
whereabouts of his baggage; "Johnny" replied
that he had none. "Then," said tie clerk,
"von must pay in advance: that is our role." ]
"Johnny" cast a glance at him, and wondered ,
that he was not known.. So, winking at his ;
friend B., he asked the clerk if the proprietor ,
was in; receiving a reply in the affirmative, the i
landlord soon made hts appearance, when a <
conversation of the following tenor ensued : 1
J. 8.-"Yon are the proprietor, I believe, sir '
-tho responsible man ?"
Mr. K.-"Yea sir."
J. 8.-"I wanted to make a short stay with
yon, but that gentleman (pointing to the clerk)
says I must pay in advance."
Mr.K.-"Well air?''
J. S_"How much do you consider your
whole house worth for a day ?"
Mr. K.-"About $3000 ?"
J. 8.-"TD take twenty-four hours, anyhow,
and see how it goes."
Johnny then counted out the money, and
turning to his friend, says : "Now. Bill, jump
in and play clerk." Rumor says this was B.'s
first and only experience in hotel-keeping.
There are many anecdotes related - bout him. ?
bat thc above will suffice to show the general :
character of the man. When, more recently,
the avalanche of money had exhausted itself,
we hear of "Johnny" acting in the capacity of
"doorkeeper" for the very same band of min?
strels tho members of which he had given the
diamond pms and costumes.
THE EXACT PECONIABY ADVANTAGES OF SINGLE
BLESSEDNESS.-The Memphis Avalancho sets
forth the expenses of matrimony with a cold?
blooded exactness that is likely to provoke tho
indignation of the marriageable young ladies
who read that paper. It says :
"Some refined persons have lived in Mem?
phis on a leas expenditure than the following
estimate, but they were not contented-not all
satisfied with their lot. Observe that the ex?
hibit is tor a genteel competency merely, with

OS- MENTAL DEPRESSION_MENTAL
depression is a disease of the nervous system, and
of all the ills flesh is heir heir to, it is the one that
excites the leai t sympathy. It is a subject of fre?
quent jests, and is called by various derisive terms ;
but although it is of.cn laughed at, it is not easy to
laugh the patient out of the belief that his uta are all
real, for it ls a real disorder-ihe genet al features of
which are constant fear, anxiety and gloom. The
external senses, as well as the mental facultu s, often
manifest symptoms of derangement' Noise, as of
falling water, and rio ging in the ears are complained
of, while black specks and fiery sparks frequently
flit before the vision. Admonitions bike theso should
not be disregardeu, as they may, if neglected, termi?
nate m Insanity. The seat of tho disease is in the
brain and nervous system, and to control the malady
it is necessary to use a powerful tonic and aller it've,
which will correct and tone those organs without in?
flaming the brain. This is the secret of the success
of HOalElTER'S STOMACH BITTERS it. cases of
this ktnd, for which it is the safest as well as the best
ol restoratives. .
lu faotit is tho only pure and reliable tonic stimu?

tonics, are puffed up from tune to time in the news?
