Nsw HAMPS HIKE, May 6.-The
State Convention adopted resolutions
favoring Graut and impeachment.
Letters were read in Convention from
Butler and Washburne, giving assur?
ances of conviction.
WASHINGTON, May 6.-In the
House, Stevens was called to order
by the Speaker, in his Alta Vela ex?
planation, and withdrew it. All that
was read was very caustic on Nelson.
Carey's resolution, withdrawing the
tenth article, was" not entertained, by
a strict party vote. The House then
went into Committee of the Whole,
with the understanding that the
speakers would avoid disclosiug pro?
ceedings.
Donnelly says he was misunder?
stood in the House. He neither de?
sired, nor does he desire, reconcilia?
tion with Washburne: His proposi?
tion to take a drink meant nothing of
that kind.
'The impeachmont court was dense?
ly orowded. Bingham concluded in
effect as follows: "Shall it be said
in history hereafter, that through the
defection of the American Senate,
the fair fabric of American liberty
crumbled into dust, and the namo of
our Ropuhlio faded away before the
nations? It is the spirit of justice,
of liberty, of equality, that makes
oar Constitution respected every-,
where. It gives the people the right
to make their own laws; and it is
this right which is challenged by your
recreant President. ' He claims the
power to make the laws, to be dicta?
tor. If he is allowed to do so,|jt will
be by the voice of the Senate, not
by the free will of the American peo?
ple, or through any neglect of their
representatives. Will the Senate set
him above their Constitution, whioh
he has violated, and which he swore
to obey? Perhaps he was saying too
much, but he asked Senators to re?
member that he was speaking to-day
in behalf of a violated Constitution
and laws; of the rights of a free peo?
ple; that ho was speaking in the
namo of half a million of braves, who
slept in death to-day-who had died
that the nation might live. It only
remained for him to thank the Senate
for their attention, and to demaud,
in tho namo of tho Hou.sc of Repre?
sentatives, of a free people, the
conviction of this accused Presideut,
who stands guilty before God and
rnan^of the high crimes und misde?
meanors of which he stands im?
peached. Applause followed, when
Chase ordered the galleries cleared.
The doors were then closed, and a
resolution to admit official reporters
was lost. Sumner's resolutions dis?
cussed to adjournment.
Grant sent a message to Congress,
covering a communication from Can
by, detailing the evil effect of com?
pelling State officers in North and
South Carolina taking the test oath.
Many good men acting with the
Union party can't take it, and other
good men whn eosid, decline laking
it, feeling that un worthy motives will
be attributed to them. Grant ex?
presses no opinion on the subject,
and merely transmits Canby's letter.

Professor Garogee, the famous Eng
ligh veterinary surgeon, has made
his appearance ns the advocate of a
new mothod of preparing meat for
' the table. It might be supposed in
the present "hippophagian" mania
that Gamgee would come ont boldly
in favor of horse flesh; however,
instead of pursuing this course, he
adheres to the old-fashioned articles
of food, but preserved for an extra?
ordinary length of time. The im?
mense supplies of meat on the
pampas of South America and the
plains of Texas attracted Gamgee's
attention, while .there, was great
scarcity in London. The distance
between the places of demand and
supply, of course, presented an in?
superable obstacle to the making use
of the flocks and herds of agricultural
regions. Here the aid of carbonic
oxide gas is called in, and freshly
killed meat can now be preserved for
a wonderful length of time. Mut?
ton, from sheep .slaughtered on No?
vember 10, 1867, was subjected to
this new process, and ' formed the
principal viand at a dinner given a
few days ago at the Everett House,
where upwards of fifty gentlemen
certified to the success of the new
antiseptic. The waste of <rood
healthy food, when cattle are killed
merely for the hide, horns and tal?
low, is very great, and there is great
hope that this wasteful practice may
now be abandoned.
CLEVE AS MUD.-Professor Henry
Wurtz developes, in the Avierican
Journal of Mining, "a theory of gold
genesis," thusly:
"The tide of time rolled on, and
successive Eons were born of the
Omnipotence and merged into the
Eternity of the Ineffable Being. As
tho dyuamie energies in the terres?
trial substratum gradually died out,
the pulsations or heavinga of the
continental breaste became doubtless
slower and slower, until now the span
of human history scarce furnishes a
unit for their measure. Tho earth
was becoming fitted for our race; the
sun shone full upon i^, and differ?
ences of climato and variations of
seasons began to prevail. Water
channels and river systems began to
form. The completed work of the
ocean of waters was deliv ?red un to
the embrace of the oceun of air,
whose functions are destruction and
erosion. Siuce then the three great
chemical solvents and disintegrators
which ride upon the wings of the
wind, water, frost and oxygen, havp
held uninterrupted sway, over all
those portions of our planet which
had been so wonderfully and elabo?
rately built up and furnished for thc
dwelling place of mau."
A party in England has discovered
u cement which is to become a most
valuable agent in the hands of manu?
facturers of articles of leather, in?
cluding boots and shoos. Patches
can be put upon the uppers and solos
and on the bottoms of shoes with this
cemeut, which will so adhere that no
known agent, heat, cold, oil, water,
or any other influence, will operate
against its utility.

- I sprang to my * feet, sirifa rushed
towards her, bat as I reached tho
window, the fair apparition seemed
to vanish into the stormy darkness;
and I was left, alono. At the self?
same instant, the sharp report of a
pistol sounded-I could. see the jag?
ged stream of fire above tho pillow
straight straight through the very
spot where, ten second since, my
head had lain.
With au instantaneous realization
of my danger, I swung myself over
the edge of the window, jumping
some eight or ten feet into the
tangled rose-bushes below, and aa I
crouched there, recovering my
breath, I heard the tramp of foot?
steps into my room.
"Ia he dead?" cried a voice up tho
ladder-the imnnA, deceitful voice o?
the woman with the half-closed eyes.
"Of course he is," growled a voioe
back; "that charge would have killed
ten ihen! A light there, quick! and
tell Tom to be ready tc dispose of ii "
"Ttl" A cold, agonized shudder ran
through me as I recalled what "it"
meant. What den of midnight murder?
ers bod I fallen into? And how fear?
fully narrow had been my escape.
With a speed that only mortal terror
and deadly peril can give, I rushed
through the woods, now illumined
by a faint glimmer of starlight. 1
knew not what impulse guided my
foot-steps-I never - shall know how
many times I crossed my own track,
or how close t stood to the brink of
the deadly ravine; but some merciful
Providence compassed me with guid?
ing and protecting care, for, when
the morning dawned, with faint red
bars of orient light against the East?
ern sky, I was close to the high road,
some seven miles from B--.
Once at the town, I told my storj
to the local police, and a a ^etach
ment was sent to tho spot. Aftei
much searching and many false
alarms, we succeeded in finding thc
rninotis old shanty; bat it was erupt j
and deserted. Our birds had flown
nor did I ever recover my valise and
watch and chain, whioh latter I hac
left under my pillow.
"It's Drew's gang," said the leadei
of the police; "and they've tronblec
us these two years. I don't think
though, they'll come back here jus
at present."
Nor did they.
But the strangest part of my star
is to come yet. Some three week
subsequently, I received a letter fron
my sister, who was with Berenice ii
her Italian home-a letter whose in
tclligence filled mo with surprise.
"I must tell you something very
very strange,'' wrote my sister, "thu
happened to us on the night c
the 17th of October. Berenice ha
not been so well for some time; i
fact, she had been confined to her be
for nearly a week, and I was sittin
beside her reading. It was late; th
clock had just struck 1, when all of
sadden she seemed to faint awaj
rowing cold and rigid as a corp?
hastened to call assistance, but a
our efforts seemed vain to restoi
life or animation. I was just abot
sending Antoine for the doctor, whe
her senses returned as suddenly i
they had left her, and she sat up i
the bed, pushing back her hair at
looking wildly around her.
"Berenice," I exclaimed, "ho
you have terrified us alli Are ye
ill?"
" 'Not ill,' she auswered, 'butlfe
so strange. Gracie, I have been wi
my husband!' "
"And all our reasoning failed
convince her of tho impossibility
her assertion. She persists to tb
moment that she saw yon, and w
with you, on the night of the 17th
October, or rather on the morning
the 18th. Where and how, she ca
not tell; but we think it must ha
been some dream. She is bett
now; and I wish you could seo bc
fast she is improving."
This is my plain, uuvarnished tu
I do not pretend to explniu or t
count for its mysteries. I simr.
relate facts. Let psychologists u
ravel the labarynthical skein. 1?
not superstitious; neither do I I
lieve in ghosts, wraiths and appa
tious; but this thing I do know-tl
although my Italian wife was
Naples, in the body, the morning
the 18th of October, her spirit sun
stood beside me iu the moment
tho deadly peril that menaced n
It may bo that, to tho subtle instil
and strength of a wife's holy love,
things are possible; but Berenice sn
ly saved my life.
People were recently in the hal
of being amused with the preci
tions of our aucestors, who, bef<
going on long journeys, gonern
S3f?de their wins. That idea has n
lost its amusing oddity, since to
sure one's fife for a railway jonn
has become a common business i
cessity or observance. Other mei
of protection are also suggested fr
time to time. A mun in Philadelp
has invented a railway car in '
shape of an iron cylinder, st ron ;
ribbed and girded to prevent erm
ing, and thickly padded within
save those inside, who, in case of
upsetting down au embankme
would be merely rolled over ono i

THE ABCTIC REGIONS.-Hearing of
a lecture that was to be delivered on
Alaska and the Northern regions, wo
despatched our reporter, in order to
give the public the benefit of the
lecturer's wisdom. We regret that
we have only room for a brief report:
The lecturer commenced by re?
marking that although the regions
near the pole were hard for travelers,
yet it is an ice location.
1 The North Pole has never been
seen. It is not certain whether the
bears climb it.
Those who go there arc protected
from the cold, although they go in
bear skins.
No negroes there-all white bear
skins.
Dr. Hayes, the Yankee, went there
ia search of a notion.

Alaska.
Tho people there don't caro for the

freeze all around it.

The hunters do not always stop to
read their letters when they open
their seals.
At this point, (the point referred
to is the punctuation point nt the end
of the preceding paragraph,) our re?
porter took his leave; to speak more
exactly, he took several of Iiis leaves,
containing his notes of thc leotnre.
