IT is said that the majority of the Senate
consider that the failure to make out Il case
against the President would be an irretriev-
able party calamity. They say that the
probability OF the republican succession to
the Presidency is strengthened by the con-
tinuance of Nj. Johnson in Office, and his
making his course for the next two years
consistent with that Of the past two years.
Believing that they lave SO limited his pre-
negatives and restricted his powers by last
winters legislation as TO make him power
less for evil, they think it the better policy
to gnash his teeth harnlessly in the cage
which they had built around him than to
a bloody spectacle that would probably ex-
cite sympathy by putting him under po-
htical guilotinc. Mr.. Sumner and small
minority Of the Senate favor adjournment
or recess, in the belief that the evidence
already elected will be sufficient to impeach
and convict, and that should no action on
the subject take place until next winter it
will operate unfavorahly on the fall cleo
tons. Butler, Logan, Stevens, Covode and
others of the House party, who are the
leading and active prosecutors, contend
that the country demands impeachment,
and that if they fail to take hold of the
subject right away, they will be reproached
by their constituency with cowardice and
faithessness.

RosIN.-We have no change of importance to
report in this tcle since the close of our last re-
view. The demand has been principally fer the
lower grades, and this has become somewhat
checked for the present, the orders on market be-
ing pretty much all tilled-the market, therefore,
closes rather quiet for all qualities. The sales for
the week are 2,O98 bbs. at $3@s3 121 for Common,

ruled quiet. Received for the week 395 bbls ,
which sold follows: 1877 bbls. at 81 70, and 2O8

BEEF CArrLE-Are brought to market sparing-
w. and there is only light stock in butchers
hands. We quote on the hoof at 100123 cents y
ID. for net meat-latter price being for prime
quality, which finds ready sale
BARRELs-The market rules about the same as
reported for several weeks past for empty spirit
barrels. The stock in dealers hands is very light
but sufficient to meet the meagre demand which
exists. We quote at IS 50@$3 rs for second hand,
50 1904 for new country, and 81 50@s5 each for

BEEswAx-Is brought in slowly. and finds ready

COTTON The market during the week just end
ed has been further depressed by the unfavorable
advlces received, and prices show a decline OF I'D
II cent on former quotations. There has been
but little demand from buyers, and the sales have
been confined to small lots (about IS bales) at 25
cents for low mddn9, and 26 cents q ID. for mid

q 1cce ssful effort on the part of certain
States of the Union or majority of the
people comprising them to get rid of their
constitutional obligations and erect Il sep
arate and independent Government, al
though 1t resulted in war, did not create Il
condition of affairs analogous to those ex-
1stlng III wars between two distinct nations.
The ConfeGeiacy attempted TO be formed
by these States, was never recognized by
any foreign Government as ii nationality.
BY the Government OF the United States,
from which they rebellcd, they were not
even regarded as government de fUci0, but
only recognized as beiligey'e"ts, 50 far us the
actual necessities and exigcneies Of the war
made it necessary, It seems to me that
this is manifest from the whole action and
legislation Of the political authority OF the
Government.
The citizens of every portion of the Uni
ted States remained such citizens in con.
temptation of the law during the war.-'
They may have been enemies to each 9th
er, in their respective sections. but they
were alien enemies. Their rights and du-
ties as such citizens, in reference to each
other, were only suspended during the war:
and when this ceased by the overthrow of
the rebellion, they stood, III reference 10
such rights and duties as they did before
the rebellion. If the war does not prevent
the collection Of the principal of debts due
to people of the UniIed States, residing in
what are known as the loyal States. then I
am at loss to know why interest should
not be allowed. Judge Story. in his work
on contracts, says that "whenever interest
is claimed upon an express or implied con
tract it is a necessary incident to the ORR
ginal debt and a matter OF strict right
which must be allowed by the Court
| cannot give the reasons at length which

interest IN this case. They are based
mainly upon the peculiar character 81 the
government Of the United States. and the
position which the insurgents occupied in
reference to that government aud 10 for
eign nations
1t is sufficient TO state my conclusion on
the subject. My opinion is, that the war
lately existing between the two sections of
the United States did not stop the running
