THE NEW NOMINEE FOB SECRETARY OF WAR
THE IMPEACHMENT TRIAL-MR. OBOESBECK'S
ARGUMENT-WASHINGTON NEWS AND GOSSIP.
WASHINGTON, April 25-Noon.-It is General
J. W. Schofield, commanding First Military
District, whom the President bas nominated
as Secretary of War. General Schofield's
nomination causes various speculations-first,
that the olive branch is held out to Conserva?
tive senators; second, a compromise between
Johnson and Grant. But the affair is still a
State secret. Johnson appears not to have con?
sulted even the members of his Cabinet about
the nomination.
In the Impeachment Court, Sumner propos?
ed two additional rules-first, that Chase shall
ask each senator "How do you vote ?" and he
shall reply "Guilty" or "Not Guilty;*? and
second, that upon conviction it shall be the
duty of the presiding officer to order the con?
vict's removal forthwith. Objection was rais?
ed, and the matter goes over to Monday,
x Mr. Groesbcck then opened his argument
for the defence. He held that the bodv he was
addressing was a court, arguing from the con?
stitution, which permitted neither bills of at?
tainder nor irresponsible tribunals, especially
Buch as wera laws unto themselves. Lincoln's
plain violation of the constitution had been rati?
fied by Congress because his motives were
good. He then proceeded to argue that the
first and eighth articles rested on whether the
President had a right to remove Stanton and
give Thomas an ad interim appointment. He
argued that he had. Had Lincoln lived, aud
bad the Tenure-of-office bill been passed in
hostility to lincoln, Lincoln, nuder its provis?
ions, during his second term, could have legal?
ly removed a Cabinet officer appointed by him?
self during bis first term, and that Stanton had
infinitely less claim to the tenure undtr Mr.
Johnson's term.
Mr. Groesbcck was suffering from bronchitis;
an adjournment was proposed, but Mr. Groes
beck feared a few days'delay would not help
him, and asked to be allowed to proceed, though
the circumstance compelled him to make im?
portant omissions in his argument.
The President, having consulted advisors in?
dicated by the constitution, was guiltless of
crime. It was comparatively useless to urge
the unconstitutionality of the act with those
who framed it, but granting its constitution?
ality, he denied the President's criminality.
The President's oath of office required him to
maintain the constitution. Minor officsrs
swore only to support it. Answering Mr. Bout
well, that/the President was bound to execute
all laws, Mr. Groesbeck mquired about the
President's duty when the Supreme Court had
declared a law unconstitutional.
Groesbeck asked whether the President was
to be convicted and deposed because he had
acted on the interpretation sanctioned by his
constitutional advisers, by the thirty-eighth
Congress, by the Supreme Court, and the uni?
form practice of the government. The evi?
dence showed the President acted in the pub?
lic interest in removing Stanton. Groe?bcck
contended that the President's acquiescence in
the Tenure-of-office bill as long as possible,
was a point in the President's favor. As Groes?
beck proceeded he recovered his voice and held
the floor and galleries spell-bound. Conclud?
ing, he expressed his confidence in the final
result, and characterized the precedents of
convictions referred to by the managers as ra?
ther beacon lights of warning than examples
for guidance. In conclusion, he pronounced a
glowing eulogism upon Johnsons life, charac?
ter and services.

AFFAIRS IN JAPAN.-Tue Japan correspondent
f the New York Timet, under date of March
, writes that the situation of affairs at tlat
tine wis unsatisfactory to all parties.
Stotbaahi attempted to press forward on Jan.
7th, but discovered that the Daimio in charge
f Todo Castle was a traitor, and th it he had
iven it up to Satsuma. Stotbashi then re
reated to Osaka, losing many men in the act.
'he foreign representatives were warned that
e could no longer protect them, and they got
n board the men-of-war and left for Hiogo.
'he Tycoon himself then abandoned Osaka
nd set out for Yeddo. The Southern princes
larched in and took possession. On Feb. 4th
arne of Satsuma's troops attacked several
ireigners in Hiogo, wounding one French
larine and an American sailor. The assem
ly was sounded at the British Consulate and
ie Legation Guard gave chase, and returned
ie fire. They captured a few prisoners and
.une arms, but the main body escaped to the
ills. .Marnies were landed from the fleets
itli all available speed, and took up their
uarters ashore that night. The foreign min?
sters in retaliation for this outrage seized
everal steamers in the harbor of Hiogo,
hieb were said to belong to priuces who were
f tliis Southern party and held tbeni, pub
shing at the same tinie a proclamation to the
Beet that they should require an explanation
nd redress. * In a very snort time came am
assadors in the name "ot the Mikado, declar
ig his intention to faithfully observe all condi
lOtis of treaties made with the Tycoon, which
nice they said no longer exists. Upon this
lie ships were given up. The latest nitelli
ence by private letter from Hiogo is to the
d'.'Ct that the war is over and HiogtKtranquil
zed. Ko fears are now entertained by for
igners for their saiety.

HOW IMPEACHMENT WILL ?.VD.
THE TALK IN WASHINGTON.
PROBABLE DURATION OF THE TRIAL-DELIBERA?
TIONS ON THE VERDICT-ANTICIPATED COURSE
>F SENATOR JOHNSON, AC.
The Washington correspondent of the Balti?
more Sun writes:
It 16 now thought that Mr. Evarls will close
on the part of the President, and Mr. Bingham
will make the cl ising argument of all. Under
this new rule it is now calculated that the con?
clusion of tlie trial will not he reached before
the end of nest week, which is a great disap?
pointment to the more extreme of tbe im?
peachers, who cannot bear tbe idea of a mo?
ment being loss. Then, when the last sum?
ming up has been made by Mr. Bingham,
tbere will be a motion made that the Senate re?
tire for consultation on the verdict. This will
be bitterly opposed by senators like Sumner,
Drake and Howard, but there is no doubt that
it will be acceded to. There will then be the
consideration of the eleven articles seriatim.
Hon. Beverdy Johnson and two or three of
the oiher senators have taken pretty full notes
during the entire progress of the trial, and it
is probable that they, with other senators, may
desire to make arguments on the legal aspects
of the case, and hence an effort wifiYbe made,
probably successful, to change the rule re?
stricting eacb senator to ten minutes* time on
the discussion of preliminary and interlocuto?
ry questions.
From the best information now obtainable,
it may be assumed that three days at least will
be occupied by the Senate in making up Its
verdict, so that the trial will not, probably, all
be over before about the 5th of May. Be it
borne in mind that this new delay does not
come from the counsel of tbe President, who
expressed themselves as perfectly indiff?rent
to tbe matter.
THE MAIN QUESTION.
The Washington Star of Thursday evening
has the following:
lt appears probable that the main question
before the Senate in coming to a conclusion
will be, did tbs President intentionally violate
the law in the removal of Mr. Stanton and the
appointment of General Thomas in his place ?
Those who hold that the Senate will convict
upon this issue say that body will base its
judgment upon the fact that the Chief Execu?
tive officer of tie republic, bound by the con?
stitution to "take care that the laws be faith
folly executed," has no right, under any pre?
text, nor in pursuance of advice from any
source, to wUftilly violate a statute, whatever
may be his private opinions as to its constitu?
tionality.
It is curious how the barometer of opinion in
regard to the question of conviction goes up
ind down from day to da; without any positive
:ause. We do not behove that any one of the
lalf dozen senators whose votes will decide the
jueetion has given the slightest indication
io w he will vote on the final issue; yet it is
:ertain that the Washington atmosphere to
lay is charged with the belief that conviction
s certain.
THE CLOSE OF THE TRIAL.
The Washington correspondent of the Bos?
on Advertiser says :
The Senate, after the close of the arguments,
viii go into secret session for consultation. A
proposition will be offered by Judge Edmunds
io admit the official reporters, so that the
?peecb.es of the senators may be taken down
md printed with the report of the trial, and
ialf-a-dozcn members are already known to be
n favor of such procedure, while several will
ippose it strongly. The vote on the separate
irticles of impeachment will be taken in open
Jenate on Wednesday or Thursday, probably,
>f next week. When the question arises ot
pronouncing judgment in case ono or more of
he articles is sustained, the managers will
nake the usual demand, and the Senate may
loseibly retire again tor consultation. At this
oint an interesting law question is likely to
ie raised. The constitution says B two-thirds
ole shall be necessary to convict, but is silent
? to tho vote on tbe judgment, and tbe ques
ion is' whether a majority or two-thirds must
grec as to the sentence. Some of the lawyers
i the Senate are looking up authorities on
ids head. The majority are doubtless in fa
or of disquah'fymg Mr. Johnson from ever
olding office, in case he is convicted, but lt is
y no means certain that two-thirds of the
enators would agreo to this sentence. When
idgment has been determined it will be pro
ounced by the Chief Justice. It is not ne
essary that the President should be present
hen this is done. Here the functions of the
ourt will cease, and tho Chief Justice will not
ppear in any further proceedings.
HOW IT WILL END.
A letter to thc Baltimore Gazette says:
It is generally acknowledged now that the
tesideiit will be convicted. The programme
i to acquit him on all the minor points and to
nd bim guilty on some leading one, which
ill probably be the removal of Secretary
tanton. The necessities of party require this,
lost of the members are under party lash and
utside influences are also very strong. Nothing
ut a secret ballot can affect the result unless,
ldeed, the next ten days bring wonderful
banges. The discussion will probably be
rolonged for that time, now that the Held of
iscussion has been thrown open.
WHAT OLD THAD. THINKS.
A Washington dispatch to tho New York
terald says:
Thad. Stevens displays the strongest belief
i the success of conviction. To-day he stated
lat thirty-eight of the senators were known
) be in favor cf conviction. This will be two
lore thau the requisite two-thirds necessary
) success from his standpoint. Mr. Steveus
:els so much encouraged by this fact that he
ven thinks the number will bo more than
lirty-eight, which he illustrates by that prin
?ple'in natural philosophy called gravitation.
[a says "a larger body always attracts the
maller, and by the law of gravitation, the
lirty-e'Rht senators being tho larger body,
e thinks they will bring to their senses those
f tho Ra iicala who hang back." Mr. Stevens
ever lr.oked in better health during the pre
snt session. The prospects of consummating
political necessity which he has eo long been
fessing seems to act with a remarkably in
igoratmg influence.
"MACK'S" VIEWS ABOUT THE RESULT.
"Mack"' writes as follows to tho Cincinnati
ommercial:
Banished from l ome! What's banished but set
iree
rom daily contact with the things I loathe."
I think you may take it as a fact nearly con
aniniated, that Mr. Johnson will have to study
p some such passage as this. His trial, at
rst a show, then a satiety, and now almost a
estinv, can scarcely eventuate otherwise than
i peremptory expulsion. His last reception, on
[onday night, will probably be his last of all but
ne. f rom as careful canvass as I can make,
believe that be will be convicted and re
loved, though I doubt that the Senate wiil
it-qualify him from holdiug further office of
.ust and profit under the United States. The
ill penalty ot conviction under impeachment
i optional with the Senate, and while there
re not sufficient Republican senators straight
acked enough to vote for acquittal, there are
sreral who are ready to take the ground that
ie President's rash acts were merely rash,
ud should exculpate him lrom more than the
miporary penalty. "Disqualification,'' they
ty, "'would sound like persecution. Let bim
o stump the country, as be threatens, and
iak; votes for u<, aa his speeches always do."
WHAT ME. JOHNSON WILL DO IF CONVICTED.
If not disqualified, Mr. Johnson expects to
cquire citizenship in a Democratic State, and
e returned to the Senate, where he will tight
toward, Chandler, and the other contrivers of
is conviction. He is coiitideuc of bis abihtv
) master Tennessee again, as he has ottcu
ono, when he can slip into the Senate, say by
isrelative-iti-law, Patterson'syesignation. His
.-sources are not great, but his confidence is a
owing well. Had lie any knowledge of human
ature-, or power ol critical characterization,
e couid still be a stingiug adversary on the
cor of tho Senate.
-Correspondents in Ireland and Germany

oin those countries to the Lnia-d Slates is

THE LATE COMMODORE HARTSTENE- ARRIVAI
or His REMAINS.- The remains of the late
Commodore Henry Hartstene arrived in New
York on Wednesday in the French steamship
Pereire, and were conveyed to tbe residence
of General Halstead, al Kearney, near Newark,
New Jersey, where th3y will remain nntil
arrangements for the funeral are completed.
The following sketch of tba career of the de?
ceased is from the New York World:
Commodore Hartstene was borne in the year
1812, in South Carolina. He entered the United
States naval service in 1828, and became passed
midshipman in 1835, his warrant dating from
the previous year. Three years afterwards he
was attacned to the Wilkes exploring expedi?
tion, but went no further oh that important
vovase than Callao. In 1889 he was promoted
to the rank of lieutenant ; and performed duty
in various positions until 1851, when he was
attached to the United States Coast Survey. In
1845 he was promoted to the raDkof command?
er ; and in the same year performed the ser?
vice for which he was so celebrated, the rescue
of Dr. Kane and his party from tie Artic re?
gions. While on this perilous expedition he
leit the ! louument of Sir John Franklin on
Beechy Island, and took her Majesty's steam?
er Resolute back to Englaud. When upon this
occasion he was presented to the Queen, he
made that address which has been considered
a model of its lund. He was subseqientiy en
paged in taking soundings for the Atlantic Ca?
ble. He was awaiting orders for further ser?
vice at the outbreak of the rebellion ; and as a
Southern gentleman, felt it his duty to resign
the commission he held of the United States,
and join his fortunes to the Confederacy. He
was employed in various special services by
the Confederate States Government. In 1863
he was attacked with paralysis of the right
side. The statement that he became insane
the year previous is entirely erroneous. His
speech was much impeded by the disease that
had attacked him ; but his intellect always re?
mained bright and penetrating. Having suf?
fered two successive attacks of paralysis, in
addition to that already mentioned, it occurred
to bim about a year ago that a trip to Paris
might perhaps benefit bis health, and he start?
ed on the journey in March, 1867. While in
the French capital, however, his health suffer?
ed no improvement, and a fourth and last par?
alytic attack caused his death at the Hotel du
Louvre, on the 31st nit. The body was em?
balmed in Paris with alljthat skill'for which
French surgeons are remarkable, and it is un?
derstood that it wears a most life-like aspect.
The remains have been taken in charge by
General Halstead, a school-fellow and valued
friend of the deceased. Thc funeral will take
place at Trinity Church, Newark, on Saturday
next, on which occasion the coffin will be open?
ed to give the friends of Commander Hartstene
the opportunity of toking a farewell look at
the mortal remains of him whom in Ufo they
deeply esteemed.
THE BALTIMORE AND BREMEN STEIHSHD?
LINE.-The arrival of the Berhn, the second
steamship of the Baltimore and Bremen line at
this pert yesterday, serves further to enfore
the realization of a great commercial enter?
prise permanently established in our behalf.
The Berlin brought seven hundred and seventy
passengers, nearly seven hundred and fifty of
whom are emigrants, and a valuable cargo of I
merchandise, mostly the production of Euro?
pean art and manufacture. Like the Balti?
more, her consort, the Berlin is on iron screw
?ropeller of 2065 tons burthen, and seems to
ave occupied about the same time in making
the run from Bremen to this port. In the
number of passengers she bringa she fulfills
the assurance expressed by Mr. Schumacher
in his remarks at the banquet in honor ot the
inauguartion of the Uno, that the Berhn
would have a full complement, adding that
there is every prospect of toe succeeding
steamers being filled to their utmost capacity.

BICE-Died, in tbis city, on tao Otb of January,
18C8. after a lingering and panful illness, Mrs.
ELIZABETH A. BICE, in the forty-fifth year of her
age.
"Not my will, but Thy will be done."
There has been taken from us one whose many
excellent traits of character had won tor her the ten?
der regard of many friends, and the undying love of
relatives, all of whom pour over lier gravo tears of
Borrow unrestrained and unaffected. A minister of
the Gospel attended at her beds! Je, at ber request,
and administered the consolatioaB of God's Word.
A few hours before her spirit to )k its flight to that
"bourne from whence no traveller returns," she re?
quested those around ber to 'lng. When asked
what hymn she would like to bea.*, she replied:
"Jerusalem, my happy home,
Name ever dear to me,"
After complying with her request, she summoned
her family around her bedside <o bid them the last
farewell and told them to pispare to meet her
within the portals of that thrice happy home. To
the bereaved family, as well as toe many mourning
friends, may the lamp of life -iver burn brightly.
And whilst we bow humbly to tb > will of God, let us
not forget to prepare ourselves to meet her within
the pearly portals of that celestial city.
"The spirit ls not deac,
Though low the bo ly lies;
But freed from sin ai id sorrow fled,
To dwell beyond tt e skies.
That death is but a sleep,
Beneath a Saviour' i care,
And He will surely, afely keep
The body resting t aere."

SST CIRCULAR.-TO THE LADIES OF
THE VARIOUS CHURCHES IN THE CITY OF
CHARLESTON.-We, the Officers and Members of
tho Young Men's Christian Association of Charles?
ton, would take this method of respectfully appeal?
ing to you for assistance. We propose holding
A FLORAL FESTIVAL OB FALB,
during the latter part of the coming month of May,
hoping we may thereby realize a sufficient amount
to enable us to continue during the present year the
various religious and charitable works which we
have commenced, and thus fur carried on with great
success, but which we must necessarily but reluc?
tantly abandon, unless we derive aid from some
source. The plan ol a Festival or Fair, during the
season ot flowers, hos suggested itself to cur minde,
and we feel assured that it only requires your assis?
tance to make it a complete success.
We propose that the ladies of each church prepare
one table or booth, supplying the same with such ar?
ticles for sale as their own good judgment may sug?
gest, believing that a generous emulation thus en?
gendered, as to which shall beat succeed, will, when
all ore combined in one coUec?oo, presenta most
elegant and complete display; and, furthermore, that
each table remain under the control of the ladies who
prepared lt, in order that at the close of the Fair it
may be seen which bas succeeded best in the enter?
prise, and thereby contributed the largest amount
towards tho cause in which we are all so interested.
We, therefore,, respectfully call upon the ladlee
composing the various congregations of all evangeli?
cal denominations in thia city, to combine among
themselves, and commence at once the preparation
of such articles as their own fancy and judgment
may dictate. Let aU assist, the humblest as well os
the wealthiest, and with united energies carry out
this work.
The members of the Association will, one and all,
cheerfully perform all and every labor that may be
required < f them, and will hold themselves always in
readiness to obey every reqaes .
Those ladies who are wining to assist ns are re?
quested to meet every Friday AJternoon at Five
o'clock, in the rooms of the Association (in King
street, over Messrs. FOOABTIE A STTT.T.M AN'B Store),
to confer with each other and the officers of the As?
sociation, and perfect such arrangements as may be?
come necessary in carrying out the plan suggested
to a successful termination.

~?S-LET NOT PREJUDICE USURP YOUR
SEASON.-It is a fact that, in the minds of many
persons, a prejudice exists against what are called
patent medicines; but why should this prevent you
resorting to an article that has such an array oftest
to support it aa HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BIT?
TERS ? Physicians -^cribc it; why should jon
discard it ? Judges, usually considered men ot ta?
lent, have used and do use it in their families; why
should you reject it ? Let not your prejudice usurp
your reason to the everlasting injury of yenr health
If} ou are sick, and require medicine, try these Bit?
ters.
'.Vhsn the bcdlly eiicrgies are worn out by anx?
iety and need a stimulant, thia is the best that can
be taken. It is tempered and modified by hygienic
herbs and roots, which prevent it from fevering the
bloo.l ; and hence it does not pioduoea mere tem?
porary excitement, to be followed by injurious reac?
tion, but communicates a permanent potency to th?
entire vital organization. :>onie of it= herbal consti?
tuents are slightly soporific, so that in casca where
sleeplessness is one of the accompanimi-ute of nerv?
ous disease, a dose of it tal;en towards bedtime will
tend to produce quiet and reireshing s.umber. For
palpitation of heart, tremors, hysterics, tainting fits,
general restlessness and the causeless fears and dis?
tressing fancies to which ladies are especially sub?
ject, under certain morbid conditions of mind and
body peculiar to their se-X, the Bitters will be found
the most agreeable and certain of c'.l counter-irri?
tants.
The constitutionally nervous may readi'y keep
their intirniity in constant check by the daily uv.* cf
this healthful vegetable tonic; and those who haw
"shattered thei.- nerves," as the phrase- :c, either by
