and thus place" the imperial capital, Pekin,
from, which Tientsin is distant seventy miles
southeast, at ihe mercy of bis followers, by

POLITICAL STJMMAKT.
BOX WASHINGTON-THE SITUATION 07 AIT AIES
IN THE WAS OFFICE.
The war office situation remained on Wednes
evening about the same as on Tuesday
!ght when Mr. Stanton vacated. General
orenzo Thomas had alternate interviews with
ie President and Assistant Adjutant General
ownsend this morning. The conferences
er? lengthy, and the results are given in the
as hingt on papers as follows. The Star says
The Secretary's office on the second floor has
jen locked during the day, and the key is in
ie hands of General Townsend, who declares
is willingness to surrender the same when a
im and is made by General Thomas, or-an
.der given "by the President directing him to
an over the books end archives of tho d?part?
ent to any one who may be authorized to re?
ive them. General Thomas declines to make
ly demand for the key, and declares that Mr.
anton has hot resigned the office, but simply
tired from the same in order to entrap the
resident, and that he (S.) still claims to be
icretary of War.
Gen. Townsend is not discharging any of the
i ties of Secretary, consequently all business
the Department is at a stand-still. Gen.
lomas contends that the law is explicit, and
r. Stanton, instead of leaving the records of
io Department' ia tho hands of Gen. Town
nd, should have turned them over to John
)tte, Esq., Chief Clerk of the Department,
io would have held tho "fiame until an ad
terim Secretary took possession. General
lomas further declares that he will not de?
rna the key of the offioe, es he doea not de
re to bring the President into any difficulty
to be the cause of any new trouble.
Edwin Stanton, Jr., son of tho Secretary,
30 has Held the position of confidential seore
ry to his rather, is stUl at the Department,
IQ . to-day received many of his father's
ends who called. Up to three o'clock this
ternoon no demand had been made by Gen.
lomas for the key, and everything about the
apartment was quiet. Gen. Thomas is still
enpying: his room on the first floor, with the
y of the Secretary's office in his pocket.
?NEBAL SCHOFIELD'S NOMINATION TO THE WAS
OFFICE.
The President has nominated General Beho?
ld as Secretary of War, and the Senate Com
ittee on Military Affairs, to whom the nomi
?on was referred in executive session, have
ported favorably upon the matter. It seems
be believed that it will receive confirmation
the next meeting of the Senate in executive
Bsion. General Schofield would not be
liged to resign his commipsion, as some Beera
suppose, in taking the V, Department. He
n take leave of absence and select which sal
y he will accept, that of general or Secretary
War. General Grant, if elected President,
old also take the aame course.
_ ' BAT^ALTZATION TREATIES.
Th.e Secretary of State learns that a naturali
tion treaty has been negotiated by Mr. Ban
oft with the King of Bavaria. The treaty is
[nally as liberal as the North German treaty,
is understood the secretary still hopes to
?gotiate a satisfactory treaty with the British
)vernment upon the rights of naturalized cit?
ons. Information has been received at the
epartment of State of the exchange at Ber
i, on the 9th instant, of the ratifications of
ie treaty concerning naturalization between
te United 8tates and the North German Con
deration, which was signed on the 22d of
ebiuary last.
PROPOSED ADJOURNMENT OF CONGRESS.
There is a disposition on the part of a large
amber of members of Congress to adjourn
bout the first of July, in order that they may
j?vely enter on the presidential canvass.
PERSONAL.
Chief Justice Ckiee will leave here late this
eek for Richmond, to preside at the trial of
Bflerson Davis, which is to be continued next
eek.
BETS OK IMPEACHMENT.
pm parties who have mtide bete on the re
alt of impeachment are in warm contention,
ie adjournment of the court without voting
pou all the articles having rendered it uncer
un whether any money has been lost or any
?oney won on the trial. Some of the bets
ere that FesBendea and Trumbull would vote
to acquit on every article," and others that
ie President would be acquitted on "every
rticle." Those who bet against acquittal in
lese cases contead that, as the senators
amed have not voted on "every article " it is
drawn bet, and as the President has not been
cquitted on "every article," each party must
ave his stakes returned. Those, however
h?bet on the square isBueof "acquittal" or
conviction" are paying their bets, t jeir being
o loop-holes for escape.
The arrival of visitors at the Virginia White
uiphur SpriDgB has commenced already. Last
eek there were quite a number from New
ark. A busy and prosperous Beason is ex?
erted.
Pendleton and Hancock.
The contest has narrowed down to Pendle?
ton and Hancock. Unless some third party
should be taken up, merely as a compromise,
Pendleton and Hancock will receive almost the
entire vote of the Democratic Convention on
the second ballot, lt cannot be denied that
the War Democrats are making a desperate
effort to secure the nomination of Hancock;
and, in this effort, they are ably seconded by
those who are manipulating the wires for the
bondholders.
. Pendleton is still far ahead, but the Hancock
men seem determined to relax no effort to pre?
sent the claims of their favorite in the strong?
est possible shape. The great masses of the
people-the real Democracy-are enthusiastic
for Pendleton; and we see nothing, as yet, to
alter our opinion that he will be tbe nominee
of the New York Convention. If any other
candidate is chosen, nothing but an endorse?
ment of Pendleton's greenback policy will sat?
isfy his friends in the West.
'In common with the entire people of the
South we look forward with anxiety and inte?
rest to the assembling of the convention. Its
sessions may be stormy, but we trust the dele?
gates will be patriotic enough to sink all per?
sonal preferences in the common desire to re?
store unity and prosperity to a now divided and
suffering country.- Wilmington (JV. C.) Star.
Mn. PENDL?ON AND THE DEHOCBATIO NOMI?
NATION FOB THE PRESIDENCY.-This is the cap?
tion of an article reprinted in this paper from
the Chicago Times, ft deals in a commendable
spirit with questions in regard to which the
truth is of the utmost importance to tho South?
ern delegates to the Democratic Convention.
It seems to be settled tbat they are to consult
alone the success of the party in the Northern
State?, and that the opinions of Northern De?
mocrats are to be cooclnsive as to the requis?
ites of that success. But in the contest of j
conflicting opinions among Northern Demo- |
crats, the elements may be so equally matched
that a decision in regard to the proper choice
will rest with the Southern delegates.
[Louisville Courier.
It will be a sad and sorry day for the Southern
delegates that shall see them step in to decide a
contest against that presidential candidate to
whom tbe hearts of tb, e Northern and Western
Democracy are turned, and upon whom they
rely as a leader, to secure success. It will be au
awful, yes, we may add, a fatal responsibility.
No true friend of the South, no man who de?
sires her to escape from under the iron heel of
despotism, could contemplate for one moment
ber taking euch a position. If it is offered
her. it will be for her interest to indignantly
decline ii The next Pr?sident, if elected by
the Democracy, will be chosen alone by the
vote of the North. Its Democracy, and it
alone, are the judges of the best issue to pre?
sent in that section. The South, by arraying
itself for the candidate in antagonism with the
Western Democracy, as it did in I860, would
postpone for years, ii not forever, tbe hour of
its redemption.-Cincinnati Enquirer.

BALTTJIOBS, May 27.-Sixth Day_The As?
sembly met yesterday morning at the usual
hour, Bev. Dr. J. N. Waddel, moderator, in
the chair.
Dr. Moore, from the committee on bills and
overtures, submitted a report that the manage?
ment of tbe temporal affairs of congregations
be committed to the deacons, when this can
be done judiciously and harmoniously, they be?
ing ordained . officers. I If in any case a con?
gregation may deem it best not so to do, it is
then- -right under the constitution, as it now
stands, to commit the collection of the pas?
tor's'salary to trustees,.or a committee from
their own number, BB they may prefer.
In regard to collections for charitable and
religious purposes, other than those for tbe
poor of the church, these collections being
substantially acts of worship, and so assuming
i spiritual character, they are under the e>
;luaive control of the session, and a former
Assembly bas. decided that over them the dea
:ons bav? no control even in those oases where
bey are the ordinary collections of the con?
gregation.
Th? report caused a very extended debate,
md! was finally referred to a special commit
oe, with instructions for the committee to
eport at the next meeting of the Assembly.
Dr. Peck read the report of the Committee
m Systematic Benevolence-tile order of tbe
lay. The different suggestions contained in
he report and the resolutions were aoted upon
eparatelv. Pending the discussion the As
lembly adjourned.
A meeting waa held on Tuesday night for
be purpose of h ?ariug addresses on the sub
ect of foreign missions.
Bev. Dr. Wilson, secretary of the committee
n foreign missions, addressed the meeting,
xplaini?g the report of the committee, ona
tating the pressing wants of tile church
t this time, os there ?re several missionaries
bout to start for China and other countries.
Addresses wore also made by Bev. Messrs.
lovington, Dabney and Been, and Messrs.

oon to leave as missionaries among the
eathen. " , -,
Baptist Home Mission s oe le ty.
Nsw YORK, May 27.-At the session of the
laptist Home Mission Society to-day, Dr.
Turnbull of Connecticut, read a oommnnica
.on of tbe committee appointed yesterday
fternoon to consider the report of the North
ru delegates to the late Southern Convention "
t Baltimore. The committee commended the -
raternal spirit exhibited by the Southern Bap- t
.ats, but avoided coinciding with the claim t
aey made that they thought themselves right ]
i advocating slavery and joining in the rebel- f
on. J. 6. warren, of BoBton, opposed imme- ?
iate action.
Bev. Mr. Bright, editor of the Examiner in i
ois .city, alluded to the remarks made last t
vening by Bev. J. L. Broadhurst, of South t
laroona, to the effect that such missionaries t
uould be appointed to the South as Baptists ?
f the South might sanction ind that the reh- (
ions education of the freedmen should be with s
heir original friends. Mr. Bright insisted T
nat the North would never give up the right *
f having a hand in the work, and that as a I
onth Carolinian had perfect freedom of I
peech at the North, so should Northern men s
njoy the privilege at the South. The speaker 1
lund fault with the assertions of Southern 1
elegates that they themselves are right in a
dvocatingBlavery and the reb e Ilion it created. a
GeorgeW. Sampson, of Washington, urged <3
eace and unity, 1
Dr, Man1? ??J South CoroUno, said a brother t
ad observed last evening that if the Southern e
elegates would speak at home as they had ?
ere they could Bafely be trusted with the c
outbern missionary work. He assured those 3
resent that they would do so, but he could not i
auction the raising of the negroes to the full ?
uties and priviles of citizenship. The North 1
light force thie measure on the South, but he '
tit it would lead to the abandonment of their 1
omes by the white inhabitants. t
The report of the Committee on Southern \
>elegations was then adopted.
THE ACQUITTAL OF THE PR?SIDENT. - The
c quittai of the President, the final adjourn
?ent of the impeachment court, and theresig
ation of Secretary Stanton seems to give great *
chef to the business men of the country of all ,
orties. The New York Journal of Commerce, (
leading commercial journal remarks :
We congratulate the country upon the re
alt. The removal by impeachment of any
'resident, unless be was admitted to be a
riminal by impartial-men of nil parties, would
e a precedent most dangerous to our institu?
ions, and we think both the friends and foc
f Mr. Johnson will ere long see the wisdom of
bis decision.
The Herold considers the final vote on im
eachment os o defeat of the extremists in the
lepubbcan party.
The New York Tribune (Radical) says it is a
ainted verdict, and wa< procured by the use ot
Boney.
The World says, "by the defeat of impeach
aent we hove been saved from entering the
oad to Mexican anarchy," and acknowledges
hat the de eat is due to the manly course of
;hief Justice Chase.
The New York Times (Bepubbcan) thinks
hot the people will be gratified at the condit?
ion of the impeachment trial, and hopes that
Congress will now proceed to business.
Wo have various i.ther extracts of a similar
.haracter before us, but want of space compels
is to omit them. They all generally concur in
ixpressing satisfaction that the wholo subject
>f impeachment has been dropped.

usual time inconsequence of freshets, and now
the high tides and rains prevent that proper

CANTNQ AIT A rn BETWEEN A UNITED STATES ?
SENATOR AMD A UNITED STATES M ABS HAL.
i lively fracas between two high Radical fane- j
ionaries took place on Bo.ik-itreet in front of ,
he Customhouse yesterday afternoon. The .
lelligerent parties were Mr. Joseph Segar,
ranking "united States Senator' from Vir?
ginia, and Mr. Charles Van Winkle, United
states Marshal for tbe district. There were I j
he usual number of conflicting accounts of I ,
be origin of the disturbance of the peace, and
he parties themselves were rother taciturn,
mt we gleon the following as the truth : Mr. 1
segar approached Mr. Von Winkle on the I
Customhouse portico, and charged him with i
n improper use of bi s name in regard to some
sohlical matter or application for office. Von
Vinkle denied the "soft impeachment," and,
?ersi sting in tbe denial, Segar waxed hot. 1
Lngry words passed, and such tender epithets i
LS "rascal," 'Miar," "d-n rascal" ona"d-n !
iar," fell upon tbe ears of bystanders. At <
Bngth Segar boiled over. He held in his bond
i stout walking cane. That cane was uplifted,
nd it descended upon the shrinking ehoul
I tra of i ho Marshal. There waa a change of
>ase upon the part of tbe latter from the por?
teo to tbe pavement. The "Senator" foliow
d, and nov. Baizing his unlucky adversary,
lealt him 0 Beries of b ows in quick succession,
lamaging dress and person to on amount not '
ret assessed. It seems thot Von Winkle did | <
tot do _anything more than piok np a rock by
rayoi.jtohotion, said rock remaining in his
land until the row was over. The caning
night have gone on for an indefinite period
iad not Mayor Ohahoon arrived upon the scene
ind commanded the peace. Segar then went
sack to the customhouse and Van Winkle went
'down the street." The lormer was imme
Jiately surrounded by admiring friends, to
* hom the story was rehearsed.

Letter from a well known citizen of Ohio. Mr. J.
S LLD BETE, aged 68 years, Mansfield, O. :
MASBFTELD, O., March 21,1868.
DB. RAD WAT: Enclosed find one dollar. Send by
mail as many of your Regulating Pills as you can
ilford. I wish your Pills and Resolvent I like them
rery much and recommend them to others. Our
Iruggists have none; they say the tunis so great
hey have sold out I am free to say, for myself, they
ire the best medicine I ever found. I wish you
would inform me if there is any danger if they are
retained in the system fo ra length of time, by ta?
ring one or more every evening for a length of time,
is there are many good medicines that are injurious
a take for a length of time. * * * "
[have for several years been troubled with costive?
ness, so that even injections would not procure an
?vacuation. I was all the time in more or leas pain
rom the flatulency, with large discharges of wind,
at the.same time I was afflicted with urinary diffl
ralties; at times it almost killed me to pass water,
rery scanty and in drops, at other times large quan?
tities, almoet amounting to diabetes. My age is 68.
[ tried everything I thought would do good; nothing
ifforded relief. In ahorr, I procured one box of Ban- .
?VAT'S REGULATING PILLS, took six, free evacuations
followed-no sickness, no pain. Took two at bed?
time, this secured a stool each day; sometimes would
take three, at others four, each day-result, regular
Tor several days, without pills. AU pain and trouble
Fi om wind ceased.. Got one bottle of B. B. RESOL?
VENT; urine now all right I am well known, more
:r less, all over this State, and not unfavorably for
xuth and veracity. Send pills without delay.
(Signed) J. HELDRETH.
AN'KWEB.-RAL WA Y'S PILLS are composed ex
:lusively of vegetable extracts, sud are dissolved in
he stomach, and their properties absorbed through .
he circulation, acting on the blood, chyle, bile and
ither fluids of the system, passing off through the
aerations, and not like mercury, caima eh corrosive .
lubllmate, antimony and the common drastic sub- \
itances that form the basis of ordinary pills, accumu
ate in the system and become deposited in the bones,
oints, cartileges and glands of the system, but they
lommunicate their curative influence through the
ilood, chyle, bile, sweat, urine, Ac, ; correcting, regu- ;
sting, purifying, cleansing and purging from the
jody all unhealthy humors, and restoring functional
larmony to the secreting vessels and orifices of every
[land and organ.
In all cases of Dyspepsia, Liver Complaint, Imper?
fect Digested Food their influence is wonderful, and
io matter how weak or paralyzed the bowels may
)e, or how irregular or costive, in the aged or others,
>ne dose will ensure a discharge, and one or two en?
ture regular stools, at least once a day. All aged
gentlemen and ladles, who have used them, prefer
hem to all others, and the young and vigorous find
hem the most thorough regulator of the liver and
jowela known. In cases where the bowels have been
laralyzed by lead, and other minerals, and from arti
ians' diseases, these Pills have secured free passage, <
vhere all other means failed. In bilious attacks, in
lamination of the bowels, eryripelas, fevers, kc,
bat causes ulceration of the lining of the bowels sud
ntestines, they are mild, sure and healing. Every
amily should keep these Pills. They are the best
amil y physicians in the world, and only 26 cents per
)0x, or $1 20 for six boxes. Sent to any part of the
United States by mail
The use of the Sarsaparillian, or Renovating Re
iolvent, in your case, showed its importance in uri
?ary difficulties. The aged are more or lets troubled
?nth these affections; wea'.-ness of the digestive or
rans and imperfectly digested food being the cause;
he insufficiency of chyle, or its unhealthy condition,
fails to dissolve the substances taken into the stom
ich, so as to pass off through the alimentary
ranal; it is (the food) converted into water and seeks
m escape through the kidneys, thus establishing a
foreign secretion of theBc glands, hence the urine
3ecoa.es charged with foreign constituents, causing
leposits of gravel, brick-dust, lithic acid, albumen,
sugar, kc, irritating the bladder, causing weakness,
paralysis, catarrh and pain to the canal of urethra in
in its passage out of thc system. Hundreds of aged
persons Buffer from this as well as others. A few
doses of Rad way's Sarsaparillian Besolvent would re?
move these dlffiulties, and with the aid of the pills
secure healthy and perfect digestion. Hundreds of
persons suffering from kidney and urinary disturb?
ances and diseases, may rest assured of this being
the true cause. Now, in such cases, Burbu, Cubebs,
Juniper, Gin, Ac, are dangerous, and will prolong
the cure and establish worse and new difficulties.
Cubebs are irritaf ng and makes the urine acrid,
causing pain, itching, Ac, along its passage. Every
well informed medical man knows what I state is a
fact Let those who are troubled just try the Sarsa?
parillian Besolvent and Radway's Pills, you will find
almost immediate relief; it will do for you what it
has done for Mr. Hildreth. This gentleman is a
stranger to us, we give his-testimony as we received
it; of one fact rest assured, one bottle of the Sarsapa?
rillian, or Renovating Resolvent, is worth all the
Buchu leaves that were ever gathered by the most
enlightened Hottentot, wno, perhaps, knows as much
about Buchu as the constitution, whether it be shat?
tered, wrecked, or pre? erved pure and entire.
a he Pereira Brava, Sars aparilban, and other vege?
table substances, are gathered for Dr. Radway by
persons of intelligenee, who are acquainted with the
di?erent varieties of each root, so as not to make a
mistake. We do not trust the gathering o? our roots
to a lot or savage Hottentots, hence the certainty of
securing the genuine roots.

JO* SPEAR'S FRUIT-PRESERVLNG SOLU?
TION AND POWDER8 are perfect antis?ptica, are
warranted healthful, and will effectually prevent fer?
mentation and subsequent decay in all kinds of j
Fruits, Juices and Syrups of Fruits, Tomatoes, Vege?
tables (such as Corn, Beans, Fess, Asparagus), Cider,
Milk, Cream, Butter, Lard, kc, and preserve them
in as good and healthful condition ss the best "can?
ned or preserved" fruits, kc, without the trouble
and expense of hermetically scaling or alr-Ughting
the jars or cans, and with or without the use of sugar
lu fruits.
They are at least fifty per cent cheaper than any
other known method for preserving Fruits, Vegeta?
bles, ftc.
By this method fruits, Ac., may be kept in large
vessels, and used or removed therefrom from time to
time as wanted, without fermentation being occa?
sioned by the exposure.
One other great advantage they have over all other
methods is that berries and sll small and tender
fruits can be preserved without cooking or bolling
them, thereby retaining their natural color, flavor
and appearance comparatively unimpaired, and su?
perior to any other method, or to cooked fruits.
For many years past effectually excluding the air
has been the great desideratum ia preserving fruits,
Ac, as by the hermetically sealing or air-riguurj
method, which consists of, and depends solely for j
its success upon effectually expelling die air from
the fruit, Ac, condensing the air contained m the
vacuum into steam or acid gas, and corking or seal?
ing the jars air-tight; and failing to accomplish
either of these important results, the fruit ls not
safe, and will undergo an incipient or acetic fermen?
tation, r- ndering the fruit unfit foi use; yet when
effectually done, the fruit is kept very desirably, and
will keep for years, and bas really but I wettest ob
jections, that of the additional expense for air-tight
jars, and that the fruit must be used immediately
after opening the jars, as exposing them to the
air or otherwise they will ferment in twenty-four
to forty-eight hours, rendering them unfit for use.

JO- NATURE .18 THE GREAT PHYSIC?
IAN.-This is DOW admitted by the medical profes?
sion as a fundamental principle of healing science.
It ls wisely provided by the human economy that
whenever anything ls wrong in the physical system
the natural forces of the body are bi ought to bear
to expel the disease. The great rim, therefore, ls to
strengthen the natural powers. J his Las been kept
In view by the skilful compoundcre of HOSTET
TER'S STOMACH BITTERS, which operates to give
fresh vitality to all the organs of the body. The
effect of this medicine upon the stomach, the liver
and the kidneys, is prompt and decisive. The
patient, who is wise enough to quit drugging and
try the BITTERS, soon feels as if he had taken a
new lease of life, and as he continues the use of the
article he is overjoyed to find the streams of health
coursing through his frame. It is prepared with
great care, and its component parts are entirely
vegetable. It is free from the objections so often
urged against preparations of the kind. As a MEDI?
CAL AGENT, it has no equi], while its pleasing
flavor and he > I btu! effects have made it a general
favorite. It is free from oil properties calculated to
Impair the system, and its operations are at once
mild, soothing and efficient All who have used
HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS attest ito vir
tues and commend it to use.
Even those who are m the enjoyment of perfect
health frequently have need to have recourse to
tonics as preventives ol disease. We are never too
well armed against the assaults of "theills that flesh
is heir to." In health or sickness this tome cannot
be biken regularly without giving vitality and elas?
ticity to the system. 6 May 30
