A New York letter to the Charleston
Courier says:
1t IL we'll known among q certain class
of men that Mr.. Johnson, during more
than year past, has carefully collected
all the speeches, aud even parts ofspeech-
es, made by Republican and Democratic
Senators In reference to the impeach-
ment question. For that purpose, corps
Of the very best of our city stenographers
have been constantly on the wing, fol-
lowing in the track of the itinerant Sena-
tors, and making transcripts of these
speeches, apparently for publication in a
leading New York Journal, but really to
serve as u powerful weapon In the hands
of the President whenever the opportune
moment shall have arrived. 1t Is, un-
derstand, the intention OF Mr. Johnson,
! In the event of articles OF impeachment
being sent to the Senate, to boldly declare
! that he will not he tried by Senators who
have declared themselves either In favor
or against his impeachment. He takes
the ground that the meanest criminal In
in the country, even when tried upon a

challenge his jurors. And he claims,
with good deal of sound reasoning,

tried by judges who hold him guilty even
before the trial has commenced. The

past year have been taking down Sena,

CHAPTER II.
Whn He Hns

Benito Maltravers was a shoemaker. He
begun to peg shoes when he was very young,
and before the invention of pegging ma
chimes, was considered the fastest pegger in
New England. He possessed a noble soul
and a good assortment of tools. The latest
inventions were always to be found in his
Exit" He followed his calling in Natick,
Bridgewater, Lynn, and Beverly, at various
periods in his existence. During the shoe
makers strikes he was one of Napoleon
Woods lieutenants, at Lynn, in which capa-
city he gained much military information,
which came in play in after life. Owing to
the jealousy of rivals his picture was not
Published in Frank Leslie's newspaper. In
personal appearance he was light weight, of
dark complexion, dark eyes, dark skin, and
dark hair, betOkening his Spanish extraction.
Just previous to the incident above nara
ted, he bet hat with a chum that he had
won the affections of the fair Mabel, but, as
the reader may infer, she gave him the mitten.
Broken-hearted and she>grinned, he retired
for short season to Hull to recruit, stopping
at the Oregon House.
The tOcsin of war sounded, and Que of the
regiments which left Hull bore in its ranks
Benito Maltravers, who had recruited suffi-
GENTLY to be recruited for three months.
He gave halfstarved cOmrade his DAYS
rations on the first hour Of his enlistment :;
on hearing which the Colonel promoted him
to a Lieutenancy. He purchased a pair of
shoulder-straps in Boston, and when Mabel
MontreSsor was waving her handkerchief, as
the regiment passed in, she swooned and fell
on to it.

Il Tragic End.

Mr.. and Mrs. lIanscom lived, died, and

numerous Offspring-many Of whom are now
grandchildren, have gOVeTnesses, and Abijah's

hibition candidates. and the next day after
election flung himself from the giddy height
OF the Public Garden Bridge into the foam-
ing waters beneath. He sunk Immediately
to rise no more, as if heavy weight bore
him down. The lake was dragged and the
body was recovered. The only property upon
it was keys to the various cIub.rooms in Bos-
ton, which, being sold for old brass, betrayed
his funeral expenses. His age was one hun
dred and three years.

Vengeance, deep, dirt, and deadly, was
stamped upon the visitors visage.

Mabel still stronger chung to the form of
the dry goods clerk, whose red hair begun to
individually rise on end, as was its custom on
such occasions.
Just then the moon broke forth from
dark'complexionedc cloud and revealed to hem
the face and form of Benito Maltravers, hold
ing in one hand a horse. cavalry pistol, and in
the other a huge sword. His whole express
sion betokeued that he "meant bizness."
AYE" he shouted, "here, on POwderhorn

AbUah rose and cast his holy sorrow from
him (Which tainted in order that he might
have fair chance to ego in" Fire redder
than his hair cleaned from his usually mild
blue eyes. Like tiger he spraug upon the
intruder. With one hand he seized the half
cooked pistol. with the other the deadly
sword, while with the other he dashed the
brawny quartermaster to the ground The
fall was heavy one, and would have given
Abyah the stake in any prize ring.
Benito Maltravers rose and brushed his
coat, and started for homo like one,

Lett the warm precincts of POWdeThurU Hill,
Nor cast one long. lingering look behind.
The eowardly knight of the yardstick, ia
king advantage of his defenccless position, as
saulted him on the right flank with his boot.
When the form of Benito Maltravers had
wholly disappeared, Abijah's fierce aud def
ant eyes melted into orbs of tenderness; his
bristliDg hair parted properly, and arranged
itself in wavy ringlets around his throbbing
and noble brow; the deadly look passed from
his countenance, and broad grin took its
place; and Mabel Montressor recovered from
her swOOn just in time to be clasped to his
heart as he resumed his normal condition.

For this gallant deed our hero was pro-
NOTED to be sutler of his regiment. and as the
three months had elapsed he could not make
so much as some did. He cleared enough in
