M.-The Presi? dent's friends seemed apprehensive this morn? ing, but are in better spirits now. A brother in-law of Senator Fowler is reported to have said, that conviction is certain. Senator Wil? son's wife is reported to have expressed doubts to ber gossips, offsetting Fowler's statement. Mrs. Wade is reroxted as bearing herself haughtily. Several newspaper men of known impeachment proclivities report conversations pointing to acquittal, bot, they are suspected to be decoys to ..bets, in which they bave a commission. The Senate went into secret session at ten! and a hah* o'clock, but previously on motion of Sherman, made arrangements to prevent de? mons trations .to-morrow.

The able London correspondent of the New York Times writes under date of April 4 : The decision of the Dean of Arches on the Ritual prosecutions was given on Saturday. As it flus a pamphlet of over seventy pages, and took four hours and twenty minutes to read, I shall not give it entire in this letter. It decided against the curate of St. Albans on three points, and upon one in his favor, but left each party to pay his own costs. It is considerod|so far a triumph to the Ritualists that they will not appeal. The right to wear the vestments, to drape the altars, and to nee other ornaments of" the churches is not disputed. This : judgment affirms the right to baye two lighted candles on the altar, but declares illegal the censing of persons and things, and the use of incense in any way du? ring'tue communion service, the excessive elevation of the sacrament and excessive kneeling, and the mingling of the water with the wine as.part of the ceremonial. On Sunday, the day after this judgment, St. Albans was crowded to soe what difference it would make. Ii required a very close observer to find any. The. vestments were as splendid as ever: : there was so mach incense that no one could see whether the elevations and prostrations were excessive, and the few drops of water were added to the wine before, and not during the communion service. Nothing has been : gained to the Protestant party, and much lost, i by this decision. But they will not give it up : so ; thaxrext proaecurion will be upon the doc? trines, of which all the practices of ritualism : are but symbols or forms of expression. The civil court which decides in the last appeal apon what is the faith of the church by law established, refused, in the German case, to ; determine the question of baptismal regenera? tion. Every member of the Church of England : is free to believe, as he like3 on that point. The I same liberty of conscience would probably be < declared upou the question of absolution. The < one doctrine on which a judgment will be Bought i is that of the real presence. This is the one that will divide the church into two bodies, and lead i to the disestablishment of both, whenever i a decision either way is given. 'A decision in ? favor of the doctrine would drive out the whole ' Protestant party; one against it would equally J compel the instant secession of the whole An- i ?lo-Catholic party; and the Protestants will . press for a d?cision. The church is really di- i ?ded-unity does not exist. Tho differences < ire vital. But for the legal establishment and i mdowment there would not be a pretence of < mity. To the Low Church, or Protestant par y, ritualism is Popery; to the Ritualist, the loctrinea and practices of the Low Churchmen ire. profanation and sacrilege. Let the Privy 1 Council affirm the Protestant interpretation, 1 ind the entire High Church party would either sec?me an independent ecclesiastical body or 1 ;o over to Borne; and this matter may be de- '.\ termined within the next two years, for this ' ilow old country is full of life and ie moving, ! !br good or evil, with a terrible rapidity. I :1 lave been but a few years in England, and I 1 lave seen th? Tory party carry household suf- 1 rage against the protest of earnest Liberals, 1 md Mr. Gladstone move the disestablishment 1 rf the Irish Church, after having been for thir- j y years its staunchdefen.der.

PRINCE OF WALES AND THE IRISH CATHO? LICS.-The Dublin Freeman'o Journal speaks vita the warmest satisfaction of the attention vhich has been shown to Cardinal Cullen by he authorities during the royal visit. "Tho 1 Roman Catholic Prelate of Dublin is invited," ' ?aye our cotemporary, "with every circum- , itance of honor and respect, to share the vice? regal hospitalities, by I113 proper designation. 1 The Cardinal Archbishop of Drtblin' is invited xi meet the eldest son of the Sovereign, the uture king of these realms, and his illustrious : jonsort. Among the distinguished personages present, to his Eminence is given his proper place, next immediately after royalty, and all ? ?at is due to his rank "ii freely accorded to it. Say moro, that Princess whose winning beauty magnetons mien are making Irish hearts her ! juhjects indeed, shows especial favor to the lead in this country of the church which is the mutch of the affections of the Irish people; to 1 lis Eminence invitations are repeated, and he respect and favor in which the Prince and Princess of Wales have learned to hold thiB - Prince of th? Holy Raman Church are openly ? ind nobly evidenced. No act of the roval visit ' viii be more gratefully reoeived thou this."' ' Impeachment from an English Point ot View. [From the London Times, April 23.] The great State trial of the New World is rapidly approaching its close, and any hour may now bring us intelligence of the judgment pronounced upon Andrew Johnson by the American Senate. It is a strange end of a mighty conflict-a singular example of politi? cal bathos. The most gigantic, costly and san? guinary struggle ever known has dwindled into a prosecution of which we, in this country, can only think that it need never have been insti? tuted at all. Whether the President of the Be publio did Or did not commit the offences im? puted to him is a question which it really seems hardly necessary to entertain, so plain does the conclusion appear, according to Ecch'eh opin? ions, that these offences were not such as should have put him upon his trial. The whole charge against President Johnson amounts to little more than this, that he placed himself rn opposition to Congress. The Exec? utive and the Legislature have been for some time at variance, out that is a misfortune which might occur at any time. The constitution fave powers to Congress and powers to the resident, and it was always possible that these authorities might differ in opinion. No doubt such an antagonism might be carried by a President to such a point and be supported by such measures as would justify an impeach? ment, but it seems impossible to regard in such alight as this any of the proceedings ascribed to Mr. Johnson. That he did not sym? pathize with the views of Congress is, of course, notorious, but in America opinions are surely free; that he spoke without much re? spect of Congress may be admitted, but in America speech is very free indeed. We know of nothing said by the President on this sub? ject which might not have been said of Parlia? ment or ministers here without creating moro than a passing remark, and certainly members of Congress have spoken as hardly of Andrew Johnson as ever he spoke of them. There was a political feud between the parties, and party feeling ran high; but as things go in America, and. indeed, in all free countries, it seems out of all measure to make angry words the ground of & solemn impeachment. The impeachment of the Chief Magistrate of a nation is an act of extreme gravity, to be justified only by overpowering considerations of public welfare. We fail to discern anything resembling such justification in the case be? fore ns. It appears to ns only an unmeasured expression of fiparty feeling. A Republican Congress has been impatient of a Democratic President, and that is all. It is certainly pos? sible that a majority of the Senate may rule conscientiously as well as rightly that Mr. Johnson's attempt to dismisa Mr. Stanton was a violation of law, but it will not be held in Europe, and we should think it would not be held m America, that the act was such a viola? tion of law aa lo demand these extreme pro? ceedings. It will be far easier to rule that the President has occasionally been indiscreet of speech, but this, too, will give very little sup? port to the case for impeachment. Nobody can deny that Mr. Johnson's conduct has fallen short of the dignity of his place, but we are bound to add that, upon the whole, it has been as becoming and as politic as those who placed him in office by their votes were entitled to anticipate. Taking his official ca? reer from first to last, he has certainly ex? ceeded the expectations which were formed of bim. It is not for us to beg the question by deciding between the claims of Republican and Democratic principles, but even if it bo as? sumed that the policy pursued by Congress was right, and that advocated by the President wrong, there was no reason on this ground for putting the President on his trial. Consross had its own way, though with a little opposi? tion. It was thwarted, but it could not be con? trolled. The President, as a matter offset, did not succeed in removing Mr. Stanton, nor could he enforce his own views on the recon? struction of the South. It cannot be pleaded that there was any necessity for depriving him of the power to do evil. He vetoed the mea? sures of Congress, but Congress passed them igain over his veto, and the actual policy of the United States was not Democratic, but Repub? lican. Congress had the upperhand, and night have been content with its power. It would bc better, of course, that the Executive md Legislature should be in harmony with :-ach other instead of contending in daily coo? lie t, but such differences are the natural inci- , lents of political freedom. DEATH OF AX OLD BOOKSELLER.-THE CHARLESTON DAILY NEWS, of the 3d instant, announces the death of Mr. S. G. Courtenay, which took place on the day previous. Mr. Courtenay was one of the most prominent of the booksellers in Charleston, ana for a num? ber of years past, his well-known establishment sn Broad-street, near the old postoffice, has been as it were one of the institutions of the sity. He was not, strictly speaking, a book? seller, his establishment being rather a news, periodical aud stationery emporium, in and around which Charles toman H were wont to con? gregate and indulge in animated discussion on business matters, politics -and the general topics of the day. From a long and intimate acquaintance with Mr. Courtenay, we are ena? bled to give personal testimony as to the more than ordinary virtues and excellencies of char? acter and accomplishments that have called Forth the warm eulogies of the press of bis native city. As a business man, he was possessed of an indomitable energy that could not fail to win success, and to this was added an unblemish? ed reputation, the most scrupulous regard for integrity, and the genial maimers that mark the true type of an accomplished and warm? hearted Southern gentleman. His life was an honor to all of his business calling,-end his death a serious loss to his native city. [American Publisher and Bookseller, May.

VENT that w?l arrest the progress of Consumption, either of the Lungs, Liver, Kidneys or Bowels. The RESOLVENT is a compensating remedy; it com? municates its curative powers through the blood, sweat and ur: nc ; it restores functional harmony and enables each secreting organ to secrete its proper constituents. Direct remedies, as Lung Balsams, Cough Syrups, Pectorals, given to act directly on tho Lungs, as a regular remedy, are hurtful, as they augment the functions of the Lungs at the expense of suspending or interrupting the functions of the Liver, Kidneys and Skin, ir a patient suffering with a severe cough, with a sense of suffocation or weight ! in the che.tt. irritation or soreness In the throat, pain In the shoulders, difficulty of raising or expectorat? ing phlegm, dryness of the sion, or if there is con? stipation of tho bowels, unnatural appetite, great thirst or if 'he water discharged deposits substances like the white of an egg, or brick dust, or thread-like skeins, or if there is pam in thc small of the back, hips, stomach or bowels, chest, etc., from a dessert to a t'lbleepoontul of RESOLVENT half an hour alter each meal, and If the cough is troublesome one tea? spoonful at night, will afford immediate ease, and will soon removo all unpleasant symptoms. As aids to the Resolvent, if pam ls present, tho spine should be rubbed with the Ready Relief, and one to four of Radway's pills (coated) to insure per? fect digestion and regular evacuations from the bowels. The nourishing properties of RADWAY'S RENOVATING RESOLVENT increase the strength and flesh ot the patient We do not claim that this remedy will make new lung?, new kidneys, or other wasted organs, but it will arrest decay, heal ulcers, and supply the waste that is daily passing off, with new, sound and healthy material. Dr. Rad way can be consulted, free of charge, from 12 to 2 P. M., at No. 87 MAIDEN LANE. The public have but a faint ilea of the great im? portance of RADWAY'S RESOLVENT, in the treat? ment of chronic disease of the Kidneys and urinary organs. Sarsaparulian and Pareira Urava, two of its ingredients, os prepared by Dr. Radway's procoss, supplies a want that has ever existed, in rep. iring the waste of the body with pure and healthy mate? rial out of new rich blood, of arresting dissolution and deary, of restoring functional harmony, of se? curing strength, and dissolving calculous concre? tions, of curing every lorm of Kidney, Bladder and Uterine diseases; of stopping all kinds of weakening, purulent, and irritating discharges; of restoring tho vigor of life, to all, whether induced by self-abuse, impure association, bad habit of system, exposure, or accident AB the RENOVATING RESOLVE?.T SARSAPA RLLLIAN enters immediately into the circulation, it commences its work of purification and expulsion of acrimonious humors from the blood at once.

We propose holding A FLORAL FESTIVAL OR FAIR, during the latter part of the coming month of May, hoping we may thereby realize a sufficient amount to enable us to continue during thc present year the various religious and charitable works which we have commenced, and thus for carried on with great success, but which we must necessarily but reluc? tantly abandon, unless we derive aid from some source. The plan ot a Festival or Fair, during the season of flowers, bas suggested itself to our minds, 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 ehaU best succeed, wiU, when all are combined in one collection, pr?tent a most elegant and complete display; and, furthermore, that each table remain under the control of the ladies who prepared it, in order that at the close of the Fair it may be seen which has 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 ladies compo__Lg the various congregations of all evangeli? cal denominations in this city, to combine among themselves, and commence at once the preparation of such articles os their own fancy and Judgment may dictate. Let all assist, the humblest as well ai the wealthiest, and with united enegie? carry out this work. The members of the Association will, one and all, cheerfully perform all and every labor that may be required ff them, and will hold themselves always Ip readiness to obey every reqties . Those ladies who ore willing to assist us are re? quested to meet every Friday Ajternom at Five o'clock, in the rooms of thc As-ociation (in Kin<; street, over Messrs. FOOABTIE & STILLMAN'S Storej. 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. By order of the Association. J. E. FOGARTIE, April 21 Secretary Y. M. C. A. ?S-FALLACIES OF THE FACULTY.-THE stomach is tba mung organ of the system. If the digestion is imperfect, every moniner, every gland, every muscle, every nerve an.l fibre ls more or less out of crder. All thc fluids are depravtd. Thc brain is clouded. Thc spirits are depressed. All dyspep? tics know this to be the truth. It is i ot. however, half the truth. Columns would be required to enu? merate the pains and penalties of dyspepsia, nor could any pen do them justice. Tens of thousands feel ta'm ; uo man can describe them. Can they be prevented ? Can they be relieved ? Can they be banished at once and forever ? UN? QUESTIONABLY THEY CAN. No dyspeptic has ever taken EOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTKRS in vain Believe no one who fays the complaint is incurable. This great vegetable stomachic will tr adie a 'e it-is eradicating it in thousands of cases over which med? ical practitioners have shaken their heads ominious ly, saying, "Nothing can be done." Thc faculty has its fallacies. One ot them is that indigestion is the most difficult of all the ordinary ailments of mankind to combat and subdue. This is a mistake. Nothing can be easier than to con? quer it if the true specific be administered. This vegetable combination, which has become famous throughout the civilized world as HOsTE'i I ER'S STOMACH BI t'TERS, is an antidote to the disease which has never been known to fail, and lortunately it is everywhere procurable. If you wish to iool w.lh the dyspepsia, try the pinrnuconceia prescrip? tions. If you want to root it out and prevent it recurrence, tako the Bitters daily. 'lhere is no dis? count cn the testimony in its laver. If there is a man or woman who has ever tried it for indigestion without being benefitted, the iact has not transpired. Universal, uncontradicted praise avouches its won? derful tonic virtues. _6 Alay 9 ?9- ROYAL HAVANA LOTTERY. -PRIZES CASHED AND INFORMATION FURNISHED.
