acquires in age, a high and broad forehead.
clear gray or blue eyes that, with the long
aquillne nose, give the man an Irresistible
resemblance to a hawk, aud an expression
| full of pain, half melancholy, on the finely
chiseled lips and chin. This man evidently
suffers In the body, and spends halfthe ses-
sion wandering restlessly about the cham

any one, and rarely leaving the room, as
alive, however to whatever is going on
about him"

;nflamed with the lust of murder, and only held
in check by fear of the military power. He
did this, and yet he had the unparalleled
efflQptery to charge the responsibility for the
horrors of New-0rleans upon the Republican
Congress! The Committee make no comment,
Their simple narrative Of the facts ia the most
eloquent of denmcations.
We have no space to follow the report in its
expositiOn of the perfect legality of the Con-
vention; nor can we spare room for many
words upon the subject of the present state of
affairs in Louisiana, to which it devOtes some
consideration. 1t only confirms what the North
ern people have all along known, that none
but distinguished Rebels can hope to occupy
high places of trust or power there; that none
but Eebels can teach in the schools and that
were the military power and the Freedmens
Bureiu Withdrawn, loyal men would have
no afety but in flight For the remedy
the Committee trusts to Congress. 1.-The
"preant civil government Of Louisiana" they
say. should be suspended by act of Congress,
"and provisional government established and
maintained by military power until the time
"has come when Louisiana is controlled by
"loyal men and may be restored to its 'practi-
cal relations to the Union without endanger-
"ing its security and peace"
We append to the report the substance OF
Gen. Sheridan's testimony, in which our read
ers will find great deal to corrOborate the
conclusions of the Committee, and in particular
some important facts illustrating Mr.. JOhnson's
position in the matter. The circumstances OF
the publication of the celebrated "garbled dis
patch are exposed in full, and we trust that
the Presidents friends will find in them food
for pleasant reflection

Under crowd and hurry of all sorts Of petty
amendments. the bill for increasing the salaries
Of clerks passed the Senate yesterday. We
may be pardOned for being as much amused
as indignant at the picayune energy with which
Senator'S from all quarters seemed eager to add
their specific straws to the camels burden of the
nations debt. To give extra compensation to
tho army Of clerks in the Departments was not
enough; it was necessary to add navy-yard
laborers, watchmen. photographers, and post
office employees TO the bounty list. We agree
with the Senator from Oregon in not knowing
why che clerks across Che Rocky Mountains
were not included, and we do not understand
why some supplementary bonus is not decreed
to the tailor and bOotnlaker of every Congress
man, and. If chat be not enough. To the tailor
and bOotmaker of every CongresSmall's clerk.

Committee to inquire whether Mr.. johnson
had any authority to appoint Provisional
Governors for the Southern States, by long
speech. He argued that the Pres,
dent or Acting President--as the resolution
was Worded, had no such authority; that the
office of Provisional Governor was unknown
in our laws, and different from that of Military
Governor, which the President might legally
create as COMMANDMENT Chief The appoint
ment of such Governors he considered sufficient
reason for the impeachment of Mr. johnson.
He also advocated impeachment ii 1t should be
proved that Mr.. Johnson had returned the rail-
road rolling stock in the Rebel States to South
ern companies; if he had ordered the district
taxes in those States not to be collected ;
if he had made appointments without
the consent of the Senate. general
debate followed Mr.. Fessenden and others
believing that, while the House was investi-
eating tho acts of the President to decide
whether they justified his impeachment the
Senate should not investigate. Taking this
view of the subject, the Senate voted to lay
the resolution on the table.

Gen. Miramon, who is undoubtedly one of the
ablest Generals of the Mexican Imperialists. is
said to have captured tho City of Zacatecas,
and there is even report that Juarez, who
was at Zacatecas and had to leave in great
haste. had himself fallen into the hands of his
opponents. 1t is also claimed that the Liberal
forces marching upon the City of Mexico, $4,000
strong, had been defeated by an Impenalist
army numbering only 1900. The reports are
probably exaggerated. Generals like Miramon,
Meiia, and Marquee may gain some advantages
but they cannot be expected to achieve alone
what proved too much for the Imperialists and
the French combined.
Later dispatches report a Liberal victory.
