Impeachment.
WASHINGTON, June 8, 1867.

. rH. WASHINGTON, June 8, 1867.
The House judiciary Committee today
closed the impeachment Investigation, which
they commenced under IN order of the
House and in pursuance of charges made by
Representative Ashley, of Ohio, in January
last. After taking nearly two thousand
pages of printed evidence, during session
covering five months, the committee pro-
ceeded to vote on the report it should make
70 the House.
The result was as follows, on the question,
"Does the evidence warrant the committee
in reporting articles of Impeachment 2" The
affirmative vote were, Messrs Boutwell,,
Thomas, Lawrence and Williams. The
negatives were, Messrs. Wilson, Chairman,
Woodbridge, Churchill Eldridge and Mar
shall. So the committee decided not to re-
port in favor Of impeachment.
A resolution of censure was then presen-
ted, to the effect, that the evidence produced
before the Committee, OF the official and
other acts of President johnson, demonstra-
ted that lie wds un~orthy Of the confidence and
respect Of the american people
This was agreed to by yeas 2, nays 2, as
follows ~

of June, when they viii proceed to conside
the question of republican government il

FROM WASHINGTON.
So. aa. -
The impeachment Question.

I. WASHINGTON, June IA clear majority
OF tue Judiciary Committee is known to ia
vor an adjournment until December, because
they do not deem July session of Congress
either advisable or necessary, and this ma.
jority includes one member who believes an
impeachment can be sustained before the
House. The matter will be definitely deci-
ded this afternoon. The seven Republican
members of the committee, although strong
in their censure of the President, are divided
on the impeachment question. The charges
OF completely in the assassination have not
been sustained. 1t is however shows that
the President has been criminaliy negligent
in not sufficiently aiding the efforts to bring
the conspirators in the great plot to justice
and punishment. -rar. ..iH
Since the hanging of Mrs. Surratt and her
associates, it cannot be shown that the Pre-
sident has made an effort towards unravel-
ing the mysteIy of the infamous crime that
eliminated on the 14th of April 1867
While the evidence does not reveal any di
rect evidence that Mr.. johnson ever received
my bribes for pardons it shows al astonish-
ing amount of corruption IN every rank Of
the crowd of those who apparently have
favoIs in their control.
Messrs. Boutwell,, Lawrence and Williams
are of the opinion that articles of impeach-
ment should be presented, and it is believed
that Mr.. Thomas inclines to this conclusion.
There is much excitement to-day on ac'
count of the election. but no disturbances
have occurred up to this hour. g.
Orders have been received to place the
rebel ram Stonewall in readiness for sea. She
is delivered, and the Government has grant.
ed Commander Brown the necessary leave
of absence. The Japanese government will
pay MIN handsome price for taking her to
. Japan. One month Will be required to put
her in good order.
The Government advices from New Orleans
show that the Government is fully secured
in its account with the First National Bank
of that city, and that private depositors will
get large share of their money. ri in
