WASH?NOXON, D. C., May 6,1868. Loft Oolutaoia' at 4 pv m. ?a the I 4th inst.-reached Charlotte about ll p. m.-L\leigh about 9 a. m. on the ?th inst.-^Weldon about 8 p. ni.-Pe tersburg at 6 p. m.-Richmondabout 8 p. m.-Acqnia Creek about 2 a. m. on the 6th inst.-and Washington about G a. m. this day. Wo found the route a pleasant one. To the Presidents of the Charlotte, N. C. Central, Petersburg, Richmond and Fredexioksburg Railroads, we are in? debted for kindly courtesies. We had the pleasure of makin ?j the ~c qu?i? lanae ol Messrs Collier and Ellis, . of the Petersburg Railroad, and the Biohmond and Petersburg Railroad. We fonnd these 'gentlemen efficient officers, and, as we conceive, fair sp?? cimens of the Virginia gentleman, when Virginia survived. One advan? tage of the route North via Raleigh and Weldon, is the fact that you pass through without a change of cars from Weldon to Acqnia Creek, where you take the steamer. The country about Petersburg) and Richmond we found still bearing the evidence of the vast armies that lav encamped around, whilst those cities were be? leaguered. The country ia bare ol forest trees-'where the Confederate and Unionist wrestled in repeated struggles,' a few scattering graves mark the soldiers' resting-plaoe, and fields of waving grain are now to bi seen where white tents once stood. Down the road, where charging co? lumns once met, we Baw men quietly walking, and long lines of earth-work, behind which the few but brave de fenders of the "lost cause" so ofter stood and repelled the fierce on slaught of Grant's thousands, tri observed now serving bnt as the di viding lines between contiguous field of grain. Wc saw the works on WU cox s farm, where the United Stato; troops broke through Lee's feebl extended lines, on that fatal mon when Petersburg was given up, an< the end was near. Well, all of tho is now lost, but the spirit that led t the sacrifices and fierce struggles o the late war will, wo hope, never die Let the same spirit now animate on people in redeeming and building u oar land, and again will we have i the South au ern of prosperity an happiness. Through the kindness of a Unite States Senator, and the courtesy c his daughter, we succeeded in obtait ing a card of admission to the Senat Chamber. This was the last day c Mr. Bingham, who was the closin counsel agaiust the President Thu we witnessed the concluding part c ! the impeachment business, so far t j the arguments of counsel are ooi cerned. The Senate Chamber wt crowded-about 1,200 visitors bein present. About 12 m., tho court wi organized, and soon Mr. Binghai I arose. He mude a speech of tri i hours' duration. He is a good sp en] er, but entirely failed- to commen his argument, at least to onr mim Beneath the veil of his plausible pr Mentation of his side of the questro! we saw the weakness of his caus the failure of his logic. He was ea nest, but his heat, we thought, w but the heat of the mere partiza and not the warmth of genuine el qnence. At the close of his speen the galleries loudly applauded, wber upon the sergeunt-nt-arms was ord? ed to clear the galleries, whioh w forthwith done; and thus, aa we pr sume, the matter is closed, until tl jury are ready to pronounce the verdict. As ;to what that verdi shall be, we find mon divided opinion. This, however, seems to very generally agreed upon: that it only as a party matter, it will settled. So far as the law and fae go, the President stands acquitte But on the altar of party, tho mart may be sacrificed. There is, howey? one thing which this iinpeaohme matter hos developed, and that this, viz: thal the couutry has j the ability and brains to make Sreat and respected. The Preside as been nobly and ably defeudt and tho speeches of Messrs. Curt Nelson, Evarts and Groesbeck, ? four specimens of compact logic, searching analysis, of scathing : b?ke, of polished irony and of tom ing eloquence. The speech of I mund Burke against Warren Hastir (impeached for misrule in India) \ a great production; but we doubt 1 but that thc effort of Curtis, or Gre beck, or Stanbery was equally gr ia mental power, and even greater the magnitudo nf Hi? iccuob iuvoir We, of course, visited the Capi throughout. Its Jofty dome, fr which Bates was not allowed to wi his flog, impressed us with the beai of ita proportions, and thc sculpta ornaments of tho building are v attractive in their classic associatio The building itself is a vast? 01 covering many acres of ground, the interior, we enjoyed the view the large historical paintings cc memorativo of tho distinguisl events that mark the nation's biete We saw a statue of Abraham Lino -hie person rough in its mould, his fuco wearing a grave and thong ful air. Wo noticed also a gigar figure in marble of the Goddess of berty; und tho words of Madam 1 land nt once occurred to ns, as associated with that goddess tho rt cal rantings that are wont to reset berty, what crimes are committed in thy namel" Gt ?**X In tho Senate Chamber, wo saw ?Ashley,. the small impeacher. We a?w afc*.? Butler, and thought of spoons; and seeing Logan: tho brain I less and blood-thirsty, and others of ? the House managers, we thought also of Aita Vela?--oWert?d with gu ano and worth fonror five millions of dol? lars-which fonr of the managers, in. connexion with Judge Black, had. something to do with. , At least, it is thought that they, interested in the Alta Vela business, failed to get .the President to carry ont their plans. More anon. OBSERVER.. WASHXKOTON, April 6, 1868-9 P. M.-Since our last communication, an event of some interest to your people has transpired. A Commit? tee, on behalf of the State Central Executive Committee of the Demo? cratic party of yonr State, is here to present to Congress a paper, entitled "The Respectful Remonstrance on Behalf of the White People of Sonth Carolina, against the Constitution Of the late Convention of that State, now submitted to Congress for Rati? fication." The Committee, oonsiet sisting of Col. J. P. Thomas, Gen. J. S. Preston, J. G. Gibbes, Esq., and Col. L. D. Childs, have been very warmly received by the friends of the South here, and their mission highly commended. It is thought I that considerable good may result from this movement. This paper 1 will furnish the conservative mem? bers of Congress with the arguments against the negro Constitution of South Carolina, when it shall come np for adoption by Congress. It will also be a good campaign docu? ment iu the Presidential canvass. It is the voice of the white man about to pass under the rule of the negro, and that voice raised, too, in mode? rate, wise, but firm and dignified langnage. Another great advantage to be derived from the presentation of this paper of the Committee ia, that it will put at rest tho assertion of the radical press of the country, and out of which it is making capital, viz: that the white men of the State acquiesce in this negro Constitution. On this point, the paper says, in effect: "Lord Angus, thou hast lied." The remonstrance has been intro? duced in the House of Representa? tives, and, on motion, it was referred to the Beconstruction Committee. This was the direction the Committee from your State desired the papet to take. We learn that the Commit? tee will endeavor to get before the Becoustruction Committee, in ordei to put before them, even moro forci bly than the remonstrance does, th? protest of South Carolina againsl the outrageous fundamental law pro? posed by the negro and renegade white, mau for aa ancient Commou wealth. The subject of the Democratic candidate for the next Presidency ii exciting attention here. Gen. Bau cock's is a prominent name in thit connection. Much difference) of opinion stil exists as to the result of the impeach mont trial. A distinguished Seuatoi remarked to me that it waa doubtfu how it would ond, but he was hope ful, and thought the chances fair fo acquittal. As for ourselves, we ex peet the President to be tcquitted. OBSERVEE. WASHINGTON, D. C., May 7, 1868. Nothing of interest on the subject c impeachment has transpired sine our lost communication. The argti ment of counsel having closed, it i likely that the Senate will sit wit! closed doors until they are ready t give their vordict. May Heave grant that this may be one of at quittai-for, should it be otherwist wo shall have occasion to blush fe our country. It would be a burniu disgrace for the Senate to find ft tte diet against the President. He hi been triumphantly vindicated, an to-day he stands higher before tl country and tho world than ever bi fore. But the Republican party acting under a sense of what pai l interests demand, and to advant party they aro prepared to violate a law, all conscience, and to discai tho suggestions of honor, truth ai patriotism. Already have they rn into T*".5t!e?; creeses, ?ud outsit of tho Constitution they have acte and neted again. With one ham this radical party stifles the voice i the Supreme Court; with tho otho they seek to brush away tho obstru tiou of Presidential opposition. Tl Constitution is nothing to ther Arrogating to themselves all powc they claim, as the representatives i tho people, to be the Govern m on Like Louis the Fourteenth, they sa "VEtat, c'est moi." Having, for ti time being, the majority, they pr sume upon their power, and illu trato the just remark of Solot "Constitutions," said Solon, "ai but spider's webs; they catch tl weak, but the stroug break through, And yet we have an abiding bel i that this tyranny will not long la? It may be even that the Presiden will not be removed, and it will b that an outraged public sentimui t will drive the radicals ont of power. This must be, if oar people haye not come to the conclusion quietly to yield everything to some coming man, -whose heavy walk indicates the tread of the military despot. In conversation with leading D?? mocratie gentlemen here, we find , that the course that' South Carolina has taken, through the late Demo I eratic movement, ie highly approved and withont exception commended. It i? deemed the only practicable and practical Une of action that is before us; and tho idea which some of our peoplo hare, that our conservativo notion on negro suffrage is calculated to I darna? the I???luuracio party North, is deemed utterly unfounded. Wc are told that the Democratic Convention started ont in the right direction, and they bid us go on, as the course is calculated to givens successes South and to help the cause North. The great objective point before the South, is success in tho Presiden? tial canvass next fall. To this, let the Southern people address ' them? selves in all earnestness. Let them not fail to Beek to bring the colored element on the Democratic side. Show the colored people Where their true interests lie; deal with them kindly, fairly, truthfully, and they will be found ready to vote with thoir 'ancient friends and natural protect? ors. We have around us, as a- prac? tical thing, negro voting elements. Suoh being the ease, and dealing, as we must, with accomplished facts accomplished though they may be for a time only-let the Southern people consolidate their negro elements into one Democratic mass, infuse into that mass the spirit of Democratic principles, and use the power thus obtained for the good of both races and the good of the oonntry at large. Against the army of radicalism we must bring every column we can get, and it matters not whether these columns be composed of fair Saxons or dnsky Ethiopians. We want vic? tory, for a oonntry ic to be saved, and constitutional 'liberty is at stake. Our party visited the House of Representatives to-day. Mr. Farns? worth, of Illinois, wanted the House to understand that the remonstrance presented by the South Carolina Committee was a remonstrance of the Democratic and not the Republi? can side in South Carolina. Mr. Beck, of Indiana, replied, that the gentleman was right, and it was a Democratic protest-that was not to be denied. In this connection, we may say, that the paper is very highly approved, and invested with consider? able significance. The action of the ?tate Central Committee of your State is- regarded wiso, and timely, and proper. We had the pleasure of seeing the President at the White House to-day, and met with a kind and courteous reception. OBSERVER.
