impeachment.

The committee on Impeachment have
reported in favor Of proceeding against
the President for the committal of high
crimes aud misdemeanors. The majority
report, signed by FIVE of the nine. fayors
Impeachment. We take the following
from the Bosom journal OF Tue sday =
WA>HiN@roN, Nov. 18th. 1867.
The impeachment Of President johnson
has 1T last been recommended to the
House Of Representatives by n majority
Of is COMMITTEE on the judiciary. and
those who have - pcrsiStently urged it are
confident that the Committee viii be di-
rected to prepare the articles Of impcaeh-
ment within thirty day, by II decided ma
iority. 1t is understood that while the ar
-umcHtative portion tthe report WAS pre-
pared BY Judge Williams OF Pennsylvania,
the conclusion which embodie. the whole
ground for Impeachment, was prepared By
Gov. Boutwell,.
Tho minority report Of Judge Wilson.
which would have been the majority re-
port had not MIR. Churchill changed his
base. takes the ground that the President
cannot be impeached unless tor some act
that is made an indictable oifcnsc by the
statutes o. the Uned States. As the Uni
ted States has no common law, n theStatcs
have defining crimes. the President must
have committed some act which is made
penal by an act of Congress, aud would
subject him to an indictment, 10 be i'm
cached.
There appears to be Tonight decided
majority OF Republicans against the pro-
posed impeachment, nor does the mass of
testimony present any features not gener-
ally known which might effect a change.
,,,rfiatTlars Of fitn nt the
Tennessee Railroad Bonds by which the
President WAS benefited rather than the
United States. are given fully, and the tes-
tinony of Judges Chase and Speed Gen.
Grant and ether witnesses i now all made
I known. There is also the evidence of a
] lot OF detectives and other disreputa bic
persons which is I'm, ubstantiatcd. and some
of which is stamped with falsehood. But
we have no grounds for charges which did
not exist six months or more ago.
The impcachcrs are determined and in
dustrious. They expect that there Will be
strong pressure brought 10 bear in their
favor against those who are reluctant to
agree Wit. them. and they are also conf
dent that if the President can be i'm each
ed the Senate will promptly convict him.
This will tmake Senator wade President.
and will at one" insure the election of all
the johnson men from the Federal offices,
and the appointment of Republicans III
their places.
A few Senators do not hesitate to exprers
! their opinion that the President ought to
! be mpeached. and that if impeached he
viii be convicted; but the majority of those
who are to be the judges. if their is an I'M
parchment. maintain 4 discreet silence.
The t.3use of Representatives was in a
decided economic frame of mind this after
noon. land adopted some radical resolu-
tisns.

PLAIN TALK ABOUT PEoPLE-Ihe reg
ular fight in New York over the mayor is
resulting in one good. Ii is helping the
country to make up and record Judge
ment about New York city politics. Mr.
Daring, the Republican candidate stands
no chance of an election, and the fight i
between Hoffman and Wood. Hlrpcrs
HeeGlu, with words that ring and cut like
steel, says, after admitting that one OF
these must succeed:
Mr.. Hoffman is man of unblemished
character; a judge who did not Hesitate to
enforce the full rigor of the law against
the rioters of 1863. and Mayor who has
shown himself officially ready to respect
the laws of the State which he Individually
disapproyes and opposes. As leading
Tammany politician his political associat-
ions are not the pGIest conceivable. Dut
even Fernando Wood. in his late speech,
comedies that Mr.. Hoffman has not deriv-
ed any personal pecuniary advantage
from thos associations. lie is undouhted
etlly the most reputable Democratic May
or of later days.
Fernando Wood is the most conspicuous
of all VIGOROUSLY unprincipled politicians
in the land. No man has ever dared IN TINS
country to make such base appeals ID tle
worst passions of the worst men, nor did
he hesitate to array himself against the
laws of the State when they restricted his
power. He was the most humole slave OF
the rebel ringleaders. and tried 10 presii
tute his official authority 10 screen the tran
snort OF arms into the southern States to
be used against faithful citizens OF the
Union. There is probably no man Who
has done more TO dcbaucil the pubic con
science and degrade public life than Fer
nanIo Wood.-l Portland Star.

Old Times and New.

In good old Wing tines every good
Wing was required to hate a negro d
hnrrah for Daniel Webster. Since those
days the great Webster has gone to his ac-
count. and the inevitable negro has played
the role of patriot and good citizen Tn
der this new state of things sensible men
have changed their old prejatlices for new
cr Interpretation Of daily TO party and
to country. and Their fore they are willing
to see every tub stand on its own bottom.
The idea that this government is only n
white mans government, is a narrow view
to take of its grasp and design. The
American government is every mans
government. that lives under it. 1t is for
all. and not so narrow and cont racted in
its scope as our democratic friends would
have us suppose. BIT the idea that three
millions OF colorcd men can and will rule
thirty million of white men, is childish.
1t is bat paying poor compliment to the
white men to talk such silly political non
sense, Ii is more patriotic, more democ-
ratio. more manly and just to take Speaker
Colfax's position, that loyal men that
saved the country should rule it," but this
rules not quite so broad lit shonld be. il
Interpreted literally.

IIoLptNG BACK OF GRAIN Under this
heading the New York Commercial .tdcetiSer
remaEk>:-
1T would seem that tbs prices Of breadstuffs
are now high enough to encourage the Wcs-
tern dealers TO send forward their product free
~, to be realized upon al the Eastern markets.
Western grain merchants. however, appear To
think otherwise. Dealer, here differ slightly
from those of the West Is to the prospective
value of gram; and the Western operator, con-
sequently hold back their stocks, imagining that
ultimately, they Will be in position 10 extort
higher prices In the meantime, the close of
navigation is near at hand, limiting the means
OF trans portation, AMI cor sequcntlv limiting
our prospective supplies. 1t j. not improbable,
therefore, that dnring the winter the West may
be able 10 command high prices for the limited
supplies sent over the roads but what Will BE-
the ultimate value OF the immense reserve held
back: The late high prices of grain in all
parts of the world will naturally induce, next
year, an enlarged growth of cereals; and AT
the opening OF navigation next spring, the
West will find itself with immense stock, press
ing for sale. and but few buyers, in anticipation
of an abundant harvest. The pressure of these
supplies upon the market will naturally tend
10 precipitate a heavy fall in values; and thus,
after carrying the grain six months, much low
or price, will be obtained than eould be real
lied now. This sort of folly the West repeat
every year, but without learning wisdom from
its attendant losses"
