few disappointed Office seekers, we are not
aware Of any calls from the people for the
impeachment Of President Johnson. In any
event, as this movement is evidently more from
the inspirations Of partisan revenge than in
behalf of the general welfare or from the
failure, and so we patiently await the report Of
the Judiciary Committee.
Tho Ocean Yacht Race-Tbe Log Of tho
Henrietta.
We publish to-day full and graphic account
Of the voyage Of the Henrietta. from the
pen Of our special correspondent on board.
The details are full Of interest and will
be everywhere read by all. 1t ID only
natural that there should be some anxiety
to know how the young fellows spent
the time on the voyage and what were
their actual experiences by the way. With
certain slight exceptions the company on
board the Henrietta seem to have had very
delightful time Of it Rough weather enough
they had, and sufficient on more than one occa-
sion to strike terror into less undannted hearts
Alarming enough must have been that moment
when the terror stricken carpenter, rushing into
The cabin, exclaimed. 'sMr. Bennett, we must
heave her to; she. IL opening forward, sir"
Nor could the hours Mat followed be without
anxiety when, although the carpenters fears
were NOT realized, It was Judged advisable 70
adopt his suggestion. The splendid time which
abe made from first 10 last, with this single
drawback, was SUFFICIENT to cheer and en-
courage them even amid more serious
Inconvenience. II would appear, from
this account, that on the evening Of the
10th one Of the crew was washed overheard.
As the circumstance has not been mentioned
before we are in ignorance whether he was
saved or not Had be been lost information
must have reached ms by telegram. The list
Of unfortunates Is already large enough. A
we had learned already by the Atlantic cable,
the Henrietta lost sight Of her companions on
the evening Of the first day and did not sight
them again until Trey arrived At Cowes.
Along with this despatch we publish an edi-
torial from the London Times, In which ample
justice Is done to the yachts, to the aims and
objects Of the yachtmen and to the probable
results Of the race. The Times, it will be OBJ
served, considers it as indicating the growth
Of the sporting spirit in this country, and halls
it as hopeful sign. The yachtmen arc still
experiencing the civilities of their English
friends On the 7th they were entertained
at banquet by the Royal Thames Yacht
Club, Lord Alfred Pagct presiding One Of
the most interesting facts which has reached
us from England in connection with the race
is that sum Of FIVE thousand pounds has
been subscribed in aid of the families and
friends Of the men who have been lost On
this side, so far as we are aware, the sum sub
scribcd amounts to only Ave thousand dollars.
Surely the American people will not allow
themselves to be left behiad in this matter.

they pledge the faith Of the republicr If
they would pledge their plumber and give US

some say they will all be gone in March;
others say only halfwill embark for home. All
we know positively is that a feet Of empty
transports has sailed from France for Vera
Cruz, while whatever else we know or do not
know about this interesting country we pro
pose 10 reserve for another chapter.
