Impeachmenc.
The Washington correspondent of the New York

The Washington correspondent of the New York
Tribune says, under date of February 21:
Those who think the question of impeachment
has been given up and will die in committe are
greatly mistaken and .ill be startled one of these
DAYS when the committee reports. 1t is well
known that very large number OF persons from
all parts Of the country have been subpenaed to
appear before the Judiciary Committee to give
evidence in matters which it is thought Will help
impeachment. There are persons here now
awaiting call from the committee to testify as
to the restoration of Government plantations In
the Southern States. These plantationn were
ssized by our Government as abandoned property
at the time the United States troops occupied the
country in which they were situated, and we're
leased out to persons by the Government: 1t is
charged that President Johnson restored to the
ORIGINAL owners, who we're pardoned rebels, num-
her of these TONS, at time when the crops
~ the icssees were under cultivation thus ignor-
inc contracts which the Government had pledged,
and producing great losses to Union men who
were WORKING them. Il is said General Fullerton,
Who Who is now here, is to appesr before the commit;
tee in regard to This matter He was IN command
~ the FFeedmen's Bureau in Louisiana, and car
red ont the orders OF the President IN returning
these lands to rebels. Mr.. Conway, OF New York,
nredecessor of Fullerton as agent Of the Freed.
MEMS Bureau in louisiana is also in this city ana
onneared before the Judiciary Committee to-oay.
Seecretary Stanton was also before the same COM
1uittee to-day.

THE AMERICAN EAaIE.-Mr. CLAYTON recently
turned loose the national bird in the Alabama
Legislature upon an educational bill. Said the
honorable gentleman:
MIR. Speaker, look at the king Of the air, the
nobest Of birds, the eagle Of the Alps; watch him
as he stands erect, with his proud and noble form
on some high point upon the rock Of Gibraltar,
sleepy drowsy, droopy, with the mist and dews Of
Thus he is before the break Of day. At length the
great god of the morning, as be shines through
this mist, warns him up little, and he begins to
feel like soaring upwards somewhat; and he does
soar and soar and soar away up above the smoke
and dust and clouds, kicking back at the thunder
ing noise and rampant confusion and qproar going
on below him. So will it be with Alabama, If We
adopt this law She will rise in intellect above all
the surrounding trash and rubbish which lies
piled up thick about us. But fail to pass it, and
you will have to send out of the State for your in
teuect, and you become "hewers CT wood and
draT-ors cf water to those who will educate.

From Europe.


The steamship Jaua, from Liverpool on the 9th
and Queenstown on the 10th inst, arrived at New
York on Friday, and brings the following news
The London Times, in it's city article Of the 7th
inst, says ssThe Committee of Bondholders OF
the Confederate Cotton Loan have presented to-
day memorial to Her Msjesty's Government on
behalf of their claims, accompanied By the opin-
icns Of Mr.. Fleming, Queens Counsel, and MIR. J:
81. Lloyd. The fact Of this loan having . special
hypothecation Of cotton, which was forcibly taken
by the North, they consider places their stock in
different position to an ordinary Confederate loan.
la Frdnce says discussion by the Council OF
State relative to the reorganization of the army
had had the effect Of bringing forward for fresh
consideration decisions which had previously been
abandoned, and it is now question simply Of revl-
wing the law Of 1882, and at the same time Of redu
cling the terms Of service and organizing National
Guard Mobile.
An Imperial decree had been issued determining
the relations of the Senate and Corps Legislahf
toward the Emperor and the Council Of State, and
establishing the organic conditions under which
their labors will be conducted. This decree, which
is modification Of that Of January 10, contains no
important regulations not already known.
The Spanish Government had raised the decree
Of exile lately issued against Marshal Serrano, and
would grant similar favors to other persons recent
" exiled who might solicit them.

Rev. ME BEEcHER ON THE SUFFRAGE QUESTION.
HENRY WARD BEEcHER delivered an address Or
universal suffrage in Brooklyn, the night Of thu
18th instant. he took the ground that all classes
who expected to reap benefits from Legislative &C
tion should have voice in making the law. He
claimed that manhood has the right Of suffrage,
not q permission; and it Was not just to exclude
one section Of the country from voting; it WIS not
dangerous to allow ignorant men to vote. Suffrage
itself was q powerful educator The rudest, un
combed men in New York would know in one year
by education the difference between vote and
club: the second year he would observe the infu-
ence Of party; the third he would vote more intel
iieentIy: the fourth he would know the requisites
Of o candidate. and the fifth he would vote as well
as any one. The speaker advocated woman suf-
fraee because he thought by her influence higher
Standard Of men in Office would be secured. Wo-
