THE CON STTTUTIONALITT OF Q CE6TIONABLE ACTS GENERALS THOMAS AND B HEB MAN ON TEE STAND-THE SENATE REFUSE TO HEAR SHER? MAN'S ANSWERS- BUTLER'S ASPERSIONS-TEE SENATE SUSTAINS THE CHIEF JUSTICE-SHERMAN TENDERED THE WAE OFFICE. WASHINGTON, April H.-IN THE HOUSE, Wood? ward introduced a bill to test the constitu? tionality of questionable acts of Congress, which was referred to the Judiciary Committee. The act provides thal if the Attorney-general shall bring in any bill vetoed by the President on the ground of unconstitutionality, and passed over the veto, before the Supreme Court on a feigned issue,, the decision of the Supreme Court on such feigned issue shall be valid. IN THE SENATE, the managers asked for an amendment to the rules, whereby each side might speak without limitation to members. Howard objected, and the motion goes over. General Thomas was again on the stand, un? dergoing a perplexing cross-examination by Butler. General Sherman was on the stand; the managers object to the evidence. Another very sharp contest is pending. ? Stanbery, Evarts, Butler and Wilson partici? pated in the debate to-day. Stanbery called j on the Chief Justice during the debate to stop Butler's personal aspersions. In the course of the examination of General Thomas the fact W*B elicited that the Presi? dent's woids to him were "go and take chirge of the War office," instead of "possession of ? the War office." General Sherman was exam? ined concerning his interview with the Presi? dent in December, relative to the War Depart . ment. Mr. Stanbery said he would prove by General Sherman that the President wanted him, Sherman, to toke the War office to secure a judicial decision of the question. Butler ob? jected, but Chief Justice Chase ruled that the question was admissible. The ruling was then appealed from and rejected by the Senate by a vote of twenty-three to twenty-eight. Among the Republicans voting with the minority were Sumner, Fessenden, Fowler, Sprague, Van Winkle, Anthony, Grimes, Morgan, Trumbull and Willey. General Sherman then testified - that the President had tendered bim the War Department on two occasions, namely on the 25th of January, and again on the 30th of Jan . nary. During-the examination of General Sher? man by Mr. Stanbery, the Senate refused to hear the answers to all the most important questions put to the witness. Pending the ex? amination of General Sherman, the Court and the Senate adjourned. Politics in the South. AUGUSTA, April H.-The attention of Gene? ral Meade being called to the course of Lieut. Charles T. Johnson, of the 15th Regiment of Infantry, in arresting Judge Pope, of the Cir? cuit Court of Calhoun county, Alabama, and closing the court, owing to difference in con . struction of the orders with reference to em? panelling juries, the general commanding publicly declares his assumption of authority to arrest as deserving the severest censure. Meado further says that the object of these or? ders was not to declare that all juries must be in part composed of colored men, but simply to remove the distinction which the laws of the State in this district made on account of color. The commanding goneral trusta this disap? proval will render subordinate officers cautious to refrain from hasty and unauthorized ex? ercise of power, vested only in highest mili? tary officers. In order that there may be fairness in the approaching election, General Meade directs that the ballot-box shall not be opened, or votes counted, or any information of the pro? gress of the election be given. When the polls are closed after voting, the managers shall select two men of character from the op? posite party, who shall be permitted to be pres-1 ent at the counting of the ballots, so cs to witness and verify such countings. WILMINGTON, N. C., April ll.-Much excite? ment exists here over the registration and prospects ol election. The total registration in the city,.including the former registration, is, whites, 1309; blacks, 2073. Large addi? tions have been made to the white vote in Sladen ind Richmond counties under the new registration. The Murder of D'Arcy McGee. MONTREAL, April ll.-Mrs. McGee refuses ' o accept the address of condolence from bt. Patrick's Society, which she thinks the primary . cause of her husband'6 murder.

An "immense .Republican meeting of citi? zens*' was held on Friday afternoon, in Colum? bia, to listen to Mr. Ashley, the great Ohio "impeacher," and Dr. A. G. Mackey. In the evening the speaking was resumed, DeLarge, Whipper, Chamberlain and others participa? ting. General A. C. Haskell replied to one of the speakers. MARLBORO'. A large Conservative mass meeting was held at the courthouse on Monday. The following nominations were made : For the Senate-Major Z. A. Drake; for the House of Representatives-Harris Covington, Esq., and Colonel B. F. Pegues. Speeches were made by Samuel J. Townsend, Esq., Mr. W. A. Rogers and Colonel J. H. Hud? son-these speakers strenuously advocating justice io all, without distinction of claes or color. DARLINGTON. A very full meeting of the white citizens was held on Monday, and addressed by F. F. War? ley, D. G. McIntosh and Gen. Harilee. The fol? lowing nominations were made and unanimous? ly approved: For Senate-Hon. E. W. Charles. For Representatives-Dr. J. E. Byrd, F. F. War? ley, James L. Coker and D. G. McIntosh. The nominations of the Columbia convention were unanimously ratified. LANCASTER. A large Conservative public meeting was held at the courthouse on the 6th., Hon. James Reed presiding. A committee consisting of three colored men and fifteen white men was ap? pointed to prepare business, who reported resolutions debouncing secret political or? ganizations ; pledging adherence to the princi? ples of the constitution ; denouncing and re? pudiating the nominations made by the Union League, and inviting all good mi-a without reference to class or color, to come forward and join in sustaining these principles and securing a proper representation in xhe coun? cils of the State. These resolutions were adopted; the nomina? tions of the Columbia convention were en? dorsed and the following "district nominations were made : For the .Senate-Captain R. M. Sims. For the House-Colonel T. Frank Clvburr. Captain W. G. Stewart. These resolutions were received with great enthusiasm. Governor Manning, after the reading of the resolutions, enforced their sentiments in an address of great eloquence and feeling. He co'inselled his fellow-citizens, in this hour of gloom and trial, to stand by the principles of fidelity to the constitution, in which was their only safety. If it was necessary to suffer for a time under the rule of the Radical party, to endure their sufferings and ills with the forti? tude of men; but never, in the hope of finding relief, to accept of any delusive terms offered by men who were establishing an irresponsible despotism on the ruins of the constitution. He spoke with great hopefulness of a speedy re? lief from those enemies of the constitution who now bold all the powers of the government in their hands. If we refused to put the yoke of bondage upon our own necks, there was a sure and speedy relief awaiting us. With the success of the great Conservative party, which was every day gaining strength, the gloom that overshadowed the country would d.rappear as the darkness and mists of night before the sun. LAURENS. A Democratic mass meeting was held at the courthouse on Monday, and the action of the Columbia convention was enthusiastically rati? fied. The committee appointed to prepare nominations reported the following, which were unanimously confirmed : For Senate-Col. B. S. Jone*. For House o? Representatives-Capt. W. L. Wood, Coi.

Coro? ner-John Nabors, Esq. CLARENDON. At a public meeting hold in Manning, cn Monday, the Cth, Judge M. M. Benbow pre? sided.

KERSHAW. An adjourned Conservative meeting was held at the courthouse on Monday, Dr. L. H. Deas in the chair. General Joseph B.

The Democratic club met at Unionville on Monday, and was addressed by Messrs. T. B. Jeter, Colonel J. G. McKissick and J. E. Meng, delegates to the Columbia Convention, and by General W. H. Wallace. Hon. W. H. Gist introduced a preamble and resolutions. The concluding portion, addressed to the col? ored people, is as follows: "Il seems to us a bazardons experiment on your part to test our forbearance; but if yon persist be it so. The fault and ita consequen? ces will be on your own head. We have warn? ed, not threatened; and if the evil day, which we predict, should come, yon cannot say that those who were competent to advise, held their peace." The committee on nominations then made the following report, which was adopted: For Senate-Dr. J. L. Cannon. For House of Rep? resentatives-Dr. Joseph Hui, George Hil! and F. W. Eison. "WILLIAMSBURG. At a meeting of the citizens of Williamsburg District, held on Tuesday, 7th April, Colonel S. T. Cooper was called to the chair. One-half of the courtroom was appropriated to colored voterB, and soon the houee was densely crowd? ed. Genera] Harilee kept the audience deeply interested till the incoming of the court neces? sitated a recess till seven P. M. At the ap? pointed hour the meeting reassembled, and General Harilee continued his address, which was received with frequent outbursts of ap? plause. On Wednesday, at 1 P. M., the meeting re. assembled, and, through their chairman, the committee submitted a series of resolutions, concluding with the following nominations, which were agreed to : For the Senate, M? i Schwartz, Esq., and for the House of Repre? sentatives, Messrs. G. J. Graham, J. W. Gam? ble and J. A. Nexson. The chair appointed as a central committee the following gentlemen: Meesrs. R. C. Logan, Dr. J. A. James, J. W. Staggere, Sr., Capt. J. E. Scott, Dr. S. D. M. Byrd, Dr. J. S. Brock ington, Col. J. G. Presaley, Col. James Mc Cutchen, Col. J. F. Pressly, R. F. McCotte'y and Capt. S. W. Maurice. ASHLEY, THE IMPEACHER. Mr. Ashley, of Ohio, was the big gun of a Republican meeting held in Columbia on Fri? day. The Phoenix dispatches him aB follows: Mr. Ashley criticized and commended the Reconstruction acts, suffrage, education, social equality, etc. He maintained that Con? gress, on behalf of the successful party in the late war, had a perfect right to dictate terms and exact guarantees for future good behavior; contending that ii was the leud?is who should bo punished, if punishment was to be inflicted; but, contrary tc general expectation, punish? ment had not been meted out. He contended that the colored man was entitled to suffrage -here as well as at the North; and when re? minded that in the State which he represented (Ohio,) negro suffrage had been voted doT, declared that "two wrongs did not make one right; 'he believed in universal suffrage, as a matter of right; admitted that tbe proposition had been defeated in his State, but believed that it wou'd eventually be carried out. Social equality, he said, had nothing to do with the ballot-box; a colored man might vote, but by so doing, he '.vas not brought into intimate association with the white race. Education and the ballo'-box were essentially necessary. He was interrupted repeatedly during his re? marks, but was not disconcerted, and replied pleasantly. Sudden showers scattered the crowd several times, but the speaker remained firm, proclaiming himself a good Baptist, and was, therefore, not afraid of a Utile water. A Nzor.o SOLDIER SHOT AFIEB ESCAPING FROOI TEE GcAiiD.-The Wilmington Journal Of Friday last save* : The train on the Wilming? ton and ' Manchester Railroad yesterday morn? ing brought to the city e detachment of sol? diers with a number of prisoners in charge, which they were conveying from Charleston'to Fort Macon. Among the prisoners when they started from Charleston were two negro sof diesr ot Company C, Fortieth Regiment, who had been tried for desertion and seutenced to imprisonment in Fort Macon. When the train was ene mile this side of Register's De? pot, aud about eight miles from the city, these two solders were escorted to a private saloon oi the car by tbe guard, and jumped through the window wh:le the train was m motion. This fact was reported and tho train stopped, aud two of the guard (both nep,ro soldiers) ? left behind to capture the escaped panie*, if possible. About ?:n hour afterwards, while concealed by the side of the road, thev ob I served the very parties they were in search of I coming down the track. The guard both lev? elled their muskets and fired. One of the prisoners, named Jerry Gales, was struck and almost instantly killed, the ball entering his side and passing almost through the bodv. ! The other prisoner was untouched, and turned and fled. He was pursued and finally surren? dered, ieari?g to be ?hot. The captured prisoner and the dead body were both brought to the city on a hand cor, and the circumstan? ces of the case reported to the Post Command? ant. COTTON TN THE INTERIOR-The Columbus (Georgia) Enquirer of the 10th instant speaks as follows of the stock of staple in that neigh? borhood: The receipts are now so light that we do not think it possible that the estimates of ninety thousand bales for Columbus can be reached. The total receipts of the season at this market are still lets than eighty-four thousand Dales, and we do not believe that three thousand bales more will be added by the 1st of Sep? tember. We repeat our opinion that the high prices prevailing for the last few weeks have had the effect of hurrying in nearly all the cotton in the country, and thal the general estimates of a month or eix weeks ago must be considera? bly reduced. REV. MR. TTNQ rs FRESH TROUBLE.-Rev. Stephen H. Tyng, having preached In a Meth? odist meeting-house repeatedly since his ad? monition by the bishop, it is said that the proper ecclesiastical authority have takeu the preliminary steps to oblige him to show cause why the penalty in such cases made and pro? vided by the canon should not be imposed upon him. That penalty, we believe, is sus? pension from the ministrv. So the end of the Tyng case ie not yet, THE PRESIDENT'S TRIAL.. DETAILS OF THURSDAY'S PROCEEDINGS. RESUMPTION OF THE IMPEACHMENT TBIAL FXH8T APPEARANCE OF THE DIPLOMATIC COBPS TN THE GALLEBY OF THE SENATE CHAMBEE ENTRANCE OF THE MANAOEBS-BUTLER BE* MANDED TO THE TATE OF THE PBOCESSION M ARTEELT SPEECH OF MB. CUBITS. The impeachment trial was more densely crowded on Thursday than on any preceding day, and the proceedings were unusually inter? esting. The correspondent of the Baltimore Gazette writes on Thursday evening as ?OIIOWB: "Curtis is to speak to-day" was in every per? son's month this morning, andlat an early hour the ticket-holders were wending their way to the capitol to eecnre favorable seats for hear? ing the opening speech in defence of President Johnson. The approaches to and through the capitol were lined, as before, with liveried po? licemen, and the Senate chamber presented nothing new in appearance, except that the diplomatic gallery was crowded for the first time during the trial. Heretofore the for? eign ministers have hesitated about attend? ing the trial, doubting, as they did, the propriety of it, in view of the fact that they regarded impeachment hut a partisan move? ment against the head of the nation to which they had been accredited by their respective governments. Now that his defence has commenced, they feel no hesitation or deli? cacy at attending. Mr. Thornton, the English Minister, although officially the youngest mem? ber, was the first to enter, followed by Baron Gerolt, the senior of the corps. Others crowd? ed in until their Bection of the gallery was full. The other immense galleries were packed with a brilliant crowd, two-thirds of whom were ladies, not likely to listen with much interest to a dry legal argument. General Sherman entered the chamber a few moments before the session opened, and took a conspicuous seat immediately in front of the Chief Justice, which he continued to occupy during the whole day, occasionally passing a word with Senator Stew? art, of Nevada, who eat at bis left. In this position the general was the observed of all observers. FBEXTMTN ABLES. A lively conversation was kept up in the Senate on general topics until the managers were announced. These entered, not by twos as before, but in Indian file, Bingham heading tbe line and Butler playing the part of the tail. What brought upon him this disgrace no one could tell It was only known that at the opening of the last session Bingham and But? ler entered arm in arm at tbe head of the managers, and since his efforts in behalf of impeachment he has been sent to the foot by Bingham. When the sergeant-at-arms of the Senate announced the House of Representa? tives, twenty-four members entered to con? tinue, "in the name of all the people," their prosecution of the President for high crimes and misdemeanors. Stanbery, trim as a blood? ed racer, entered the main door, and bowing to the right and to the left as be returned the salutations of senators, passed up tbe main aisle and took his accustomed seat. Curtis, followed by Evarts, Groesbeck and Nelson, entered a side door, and deposited himself behind a fearful number of volumes which had been carefully arranged on the table. All eves were now turned from Sher? man to Curtis, and breathing seemed to bc for the time suspended. On motion of Senator Johnson, the reading of the minutes was dis? pensed with. Horror of horrors 1 Butler calls another witness. Spectators are disgusted. Wood, carpet-bag man of Alabama and a Union soldier, is sworn: Had applied to the President for an office; couldn't get it. President bad offices onlv for his Wends. Motto evidently was, -'Justice to all; favors to friends only."' Stanbery blew this witness sky-high by inqui? ring if he did not tell his friend Coppeil that he had been advised it would be to hie interest to testify against Jhe President. Blodgett, postmaster at Augusta. Ga., also had his pri? vate griefs, and after being sworn, told how the President had suspended him from office on the 3d of January last, but did not tell the cause of his suspension. If the game was worth the trouble, this fact could also be es? tablished. THE OBEAT SPEECH. Curtis now arose, amid profound silence, and delivered a speech worthy of his reputation; and this is the highest compliment which can be paid it. It was a solid pyramid of legal granite, with its foundation laid deep and wide. Step by step he brushed away the trashy positions of the impeachers, and erect? ed a lc sting monument to legal ability, strict justice, and gentlemanly bearing. He held Senate and galleries spell bound throughout its delivery. Fessenden, Trumbull, Sher? man, and such men, scarce., moved in their places, wnile the speaker con nded the ad? miration of the impeachers . Twelves. A singular state of affairs WP s presi t?. Judce Curtis was evidently on the same s . ?vith the "managers," for he, too, spoke in: name of "all the people." and defended the. chosen representative from the assaults of s ene? mies. Comments on bis speech woul. e out of place in this coirespondencc, as tho b|.;eeh itself will be read by all classes of mon every? where. Impeachment was dead before. Cur? tis delivered its funeral oration to-day. HOW GENEEAL SHET.MAN BEHAVED. Lieut. Gen. Sherman, who occupied a scalby Senator Doolittle, never once took his eyes off Mr. Curtis. When the language of Senator Sherman, in the debate cn the Tenure-cf-office bill, that the bill had no reference to the Cabi? net bfneers of Mr. Johnson, was quoted, Gen. Sherman looked hard at hid brothel, and the latter east down his eyes. Thc venerable Thomas Ewing, whose nomi iation to succeed Mr. Stanton, is yet unacted on in the Senate, sat on the other side of Senator Doolittle, nnd seemed particularly interested in the allusion to thc debate of last winter. THE KAPPI COLPAS. The House of Representatives was construc? tively present, but ic was there bodily ia the shape only of about twenty memb?r.T, thc im? peachment pro:ecdings having so soon lost all the novelty. Speaker colfax, who sits at tho head oi' "'his boy:.',*' -?ppears to be in the best ot humor, no matter what is said or done, and never fur a moment stops laughing. TAUE-EBING WITH SENAT JES. It is reported that the managers of impeach? ment arc* seeking testimony "to prove that ef? forts have been made Ly the PresMent to secure votes of senators for acquittal in thc impeachment trial. Mr. Johnson, if applied to, will furnish the manager* with the names of five persons whom he has employe I for this purpose, viz : Messrs. Curtis, Stanbery, Evarts t?rcesbeck and Nelson. Senators are nociiied that these are the only authorized agents of the President for tho purppse mentioned. If the impeachers are desirous of extending the investigation further, the witnesses can be ob? tained among radical .Jongre8sm<r:i to prove that certain sc-called doubtful Senators have been importuned by advocates of impeach? ment to secure their votes for conviction. MR. JOHNSONS CHANCES. A very intelligent Radical, who is on terms of great intimacy with many Rad'.c:tl senators, re? marked: "Curtis is delivering a great speech, but it might as well be addressed to the Paw? nee Indians-thc case is jmleed now."' And such seems to be the opinion entertained in weil-intormed circles here of both parties, de? spite al! the attempts made to create a di l'erent impression. Under that terrible influence of party pressure, the backbones of those sena? tors "which needed "stiffening" are being trrad ually braced up, and no i'car6 are entertained that they will be able to toe the mark when the day' of pronouncing the verdict rolls round. jj5* NERVOUS DEBILITY, WITH ITS gloomy attendants, low spirite, depression, in? voluntary emissions, loss of semen, spermatorrhoea, loss of power, dizzy bead, loes of memory, and threatened impotence and imbecility, find a sove? reign cure in HUMPHREY'S HOMEOPATHIC SPECIFIC No. TWENTY-EIGHT.
