Proposed Postponement of tie Vole?Bom lit Vote Came to be Taken?A Curione Comedy of Cross Purposes. Washington, May 2ft, 18ft8. " Last though not least." This has been the last day of impeachment, though by no means the least Interesting. In many respects it baa exceeded in profound interest any which havo preceded. The impression had become general that no vote would be taken, and heuee thero was nothing like the rush upon the Cepitol.which has heretofore characterised the impeachment proceedings. Nevertheless, the immense galleries were packed with a brilliant assemblage, while the Diplomatic section contained the representatives of twonty-eight loreign countries, all manifesting the most in tense interest in tbe proceedings of the Senate* as each held in 1>is band a list of the Son&tors' names. The arrangements for preserving per. feet order were ooiu plots, as shown by the filos of policemen which decorated the aisles and corridors. The floor of tho Chamber appeared almost deserted, no impoachment Senator being seenThere sat tbe Conservative*, and there were the seren rocroants, bat where w?ro the thirtyfive itnpeachere T It was a mystery to the galleries, bat others knew that a caucus was being held iu President Wade's room to detormina whethor they wouhl or would not proceed with the vote. Just before the hour of 12 o'clock, Senator Bdranade came in and announced confidentially te a low friends around him that tha voting would be postponed, such [ _ being the determination of the caucus. A few moments later tbe other Senators entered the Chamber with an air of indifference, and were soon engaged in conversation, groups being formed?during which the action of the caucus was discussod, and speculations freely offered as to the probable effect of tho contemplated postponement on party Interests. \t this time no Sonator doubted for a moment that the vote would be pnstponod?the managers had requested it and tho caucus had voted to grant it?yet the vote was taken and the President acquitted. How was it done? The details will fnrnish an interesting page for the future historiau. Soon after the CJbur' bad organized for business ami all tho dramatis personm were in position, Senator lvdmands rose slowly from his seal, and drawing from bis pocket, offered a resolution rescinding nil previous rules oti tbe subject Of voting. The Chief Justice thought the resolution was not in order, the Radical majority thought otherwise, nnd the rules were rescinded. Next came a resolution postponing tbe vote on impeachment until the 23d of Juno. Tbe Chief Justice considered this out of order but was again overruled by tbe caucusing Senators. On euch of these propositions Senator Jto*"> of Kansas, voted with tho impeacbors, and a decided sensation among them was perceptible. Radical Senators were bobbing tbeir bands at each otber, and a great effort made to communicate and confer ono with another. Roes bad defeated them on the eleventh article, and vitupcralivo abuse had been heaped upon bim. Was it possible be bad repented at tbe elevontb hour, if no( on tbe eleventh article? Conkling offorcd a substitute for tbe , motion to adjourn, which provided that tbe Senate sitting as a Court of Impeachment should proceed at on Co to vote on the remaining Articles of Impeachment. This was supposed by many to be a motion offered in good faith y the Senator from New York, and when it was rejected by an overwhelming vote, many of the spectators left the galleries, sup posing the day's performances at an end. The newspaper men,"in their anxiety to outstrip 11 competition, flashed the news over the Wires "impeachment postponed until the 13d of June." No one doubted (lie fnct, except the parties engaged in the desperate gimo. Conkling's purpose proved to be to draw out an expression front Ross, who, ondorstanding the game, in turn set a trap for the impeackersRoss voted squarely against Conkling's substitute; another boa* was heard on tha Radi" eal side of the Chamber. Sumner left bifl seat, and hurriedly passed to tire seats of Senators Edmunds, Williams and others, holding briel conferences with esch. Other Senators leaned towards each other and passed hurried | wrWds. Spectators continued leaving, and the telegraph lind already spread the news in erory { direction that the Senate had voted to postpone, which was virtually the case when the vote was taken refusing to proceed. - I But now the uudcreurrent was seen and ftd*# though its exact character waa still nnknown. J Rome new development was about beiog made. The countenances of the 1 in poachers seemed to brighten np, and some unexpected tnrn in pvents evidently anticipated. Ross bnd been drawn out; lie was upon the record with the impcachcrs on every preliminary question; he, too, seemed to be acting in tbo best faith? presto, 'MVe won't postpone," said the im* pcachcrs, "hut while Ross is voting hiuiit we will give him a chance on the second article.'* They voted down their own caucus resolution to postpone until the 23d of June, and moved to go into a vote on the seeonj article of im peachment. Tbe Impearhers were now ell smiles. They fc.vi by eiirajtuere ascertained exactly bow Jloss would yote, ?" they supposed, end now \b?y Woald convict Johnson certain. They little suspected flint there were two portion to their game, and quite as little suspected tbe modest, unsophisticated Senator frohi Kansas of intending to entrap thirty-five itnpcAcbor* { at a single haul.* The' toll Was called amid breathless silence, and tbe Interest hleghtened as tbe votes of tbe doubtful Senators woro reached?culminating when the nana of Benaior H<jM Ufa* nailed. isTow cainc the tug of vysr.

WEDNESDAY, JXJN* S, 1S6S Another Speech from Hon. J. B. Campbell, of Charleston.? Speooh of OenI oral W. E. Martin. The Democrats In Charleston had another meeting np the 2Sth in*t General W. E. Martin made a capital speech on the ?c s-ion ; its length precludes us from publishing it in full. He concluded his remarks with (here Tery fit and proper rords; " In conclusion, the speaker paid a handsome tiihute to their friends in Congress and at the ffottK. who hnd made the greatest sacrifices in their behalf. It was a gr-at mistake, he said, to classify the Northern people hy wholesale, ea the ens mica of the Southern people. 11? hoped there would he no division in the ranks of fbe Democratic party of this S'ate. There was no re neon for it They had the same purposes and same wUh to succeed In carrying the Democratic party through trinm phantiy They should give that party all the moral support they could, and he would d prrcnte division among their friend*.? Let us, he said, go on, raise our banner and carry it on high, not diecourag- d by nny oosiacies, i>ui irl ua De true to onrrelver and inocm will crown our vffoHt" H?.n. J. D. CAMrBRi.L, according to thr Courier, spoke at torn* length, hut the latanrM of the hour prevented a full report ? W?* give a synopsis as reported. Mr Cams* kll lias expr-8'cJ with great pointed near nnd force the situation in which the white population of lliia Slate ia placed by the d?*pol itwo of a Radical CongrcM and the military, which nmkea it impossible for any *ane wliils man, (it seems lo ua, with all deference to tie he differently inclined.) to do ollierwiae than aupport the great Democratic party of the North. ** lion J. R. CAurnei.L was "ext called upon nnd ad Ireaaed the meeting. He raid, since he had the Imnor of addressing ihctn Sa'uidn) evening, a great ohange had contr over '.hem. It was his good fortune to tell them then that there was no mhldle course left for tliem. Whether it waa inspiration or knowledge., it waa prophetic, and the prophecy haa already been verified. You are, he said, placed try the military power under the dominion of the African race,? He knew there were those who were timid and nervous about expressing their op'n* ions, hut so long as he had a voice, so long as he had an American heart, he wonld express his voice He had no fears of milil tary power. They hud taken from* him that which was dearer than anything which they can og-dn take. They had subverted the Constitution under which he was born. ann tasen iroin intir own race Ihoir native I?rivllegee. and consigned them lo lh? barbarian) of Aftiea. If tt worn any me, he would denounce them with every aoeent he could contr< I. But be did not wish to be understood a? saying one unkind word toward* the negro nice. lie ackoowledg.-.l that they owed the deepest obligations In tbat race. In the Convent ion lately held I they all-mod themselves vastly superior In their deportment and in ability to tbc white element. They represented a aon. etituencv comprising th- labor of the oo'intry, and they honored it, hut the white element had no oonniitueuoy. That element did uot represent property or character, certainly not a gool character. " Mr. Cautphell dwelt at some length as to the future action to ha taken hy Uia party in this State, and expreeead the hop* that lit* clause in reforene# to negro suf frage in the platform adopted at Colombia would he reconsidered, that policy having been already repudiated hy the Democratic party in tlie North."
