A Bashful Mans Attempts at 0onVer

Cousin Kate was sweet, wide-awake
beauty of about seventeen, and she took it
into her head to 60 down on Long Island

WASHINGTON, May 15.-A short ar gument was held in the Supreme Court yesterday, on the pending bill on the reconstruction case. Wherein the re- cent action of Gen. Ord in relieving the Arkansas Treasurer, is urged as ad- ditional ground for interference of the Court, and that officer had threatened to carry it out in Mississippi. The at torney general maintained that the mo- ton could not be received, and official ly announced as additional reason against the counsel. that Gen. Ord had never made such threats as alledged. Judge Sharkey left the city for Missis- sippi several days ago. The rcgistrs- ton will probably be kept open in all the southern states until September first. The attorney generals opinion will be promulgated to commanders of districts through general order from the War Department. Col.

The Impeachment Question.

The New York Times says: "This whole impeachment movement is an outrage and scandal. It has been set on foot in utter contempt of every principle of justice, and is prosecuted without the slightest regard to person. al rights or common decency. Usually an impeachment or indictment of any sort proceeds upon definite allegations of crime but here it is set on foot te see if possibly some charge of crime may not be made. Usually no tcstimo- my is admitted but that which is per tinent to the case, and from actual wit nesses of the acts alleged to have been committed; but here the widest and most absurd hearsay Is taken as evil dencc, and no regard whatever is paid to the legal maxims which hold all men innocent until they are proved guilty. The whole affair is an unscru- pnlous, malevolent crusade against the President, having its origin in political and personal disappointment, and for it's object the accomplishment of party. purposes, attainable in no other way"

The War Question.

By dispatch from London of the Sth instant, we are informed that after the organization of the Peace Congress in that city, it was found not only to be formal meeting of the great power representatives, but one at which the Luxemburg question was discussed with desire to bring the difficulty be- tween France and Prussia to a speedy termination. The proceedings arc all kept secret until the close, but it is known, however, that France is willing to accept the naturalization of Luxem- burg and the dismantling of that fort ress. Prussia is not disposed to con- sent to this, unless al the great powers now represented in the Congress give a guarantee of the settlement. Eng land hesitates to give this guarantee, and favors the annexation of Luxem- burg to Belgium. The session has ad- journed to Wednesday, to enable the representatives to communicate with their respective Governments. Mean time, war preparations on a formidable scale are going on, on both sides Count Bismark, in conversation on the aspect of affairs, at the Congress on Tuesday, declared that the situation is now more serious than ever.-[St. Louis Times.
