The President spends much time
with his counsel on the subject of the
impeachment trial. Nlessrs. Stan.
berry, Black and Curtis had a long
consultation with him to-day at tho
Executive mansion. Thc impcach-
mcnt managers wcro to-day engaged
IN tho examination of witnesses.
Having heard that claim agent had
received 5000 on a rcqisition from
Adjutant-Gcncral Thomas as Secrc-
tary of War, they summoned the agont
before them. His testimony showed
that such was not the fact. 1t ar-
pcJrcd, however, that q ciai4n lor that
amount was rejected ly Secretary
Stanton, but allowed hy Gen. Grant
when the latter was acting Secretary
pending the suspension Of Mr.. Stan
ton, aud not unit! now was the money
ready to be paid.
There is no authority for any state
mcnt as to what the President will
do. Mr.. Black denies that he ever
said Mr.. johnson would be convicted
OF the same kidney is the allcga-
ton that the President has considered
the proposition Go resign, or that he
ever intimatcl to amy one such pur-
poSo.

THE LAND WE LOVE-"
BY PATIER RYAN

Land Of the gentle and brave!
Our love is wide as the woe,
II dcepens beside every grave,
Where .hc heart Of u hero lies low.
Land Of the brightest oC skies!
Our loveglows tho more mid thy. gloom
Our hearts, by the saddcst Of tics,
Cling closest to thee in thy doom.
Land where the dcsolatc weep!
In sorrow too deep to console,
Our tears arc but streams, making deep
The ocean Of love in our soul
Land where the victo: flag waves!
Where only the dead arc the free,
Each link Of the chain that cns,avcs,
Shall bind us The closer TO thee.
Land where The sign Of tho cross
It's shadows Of sorrow hath she'd
We measure our love by thy loss;
Thy loss by the graves Of our dead!

A SToRY wlrn MoRE Po1Nrs THAN
ONE.-Thc action of the Senate, tell
ing MIR. Stanton not to obey he Pres
idcnt, reminds us of an incident re-
lated by traveller, who, in passing a
farm house, heard the father girinr
his son directions as to some work
about the farm, and the vixenish
mother in the doorway, advising the
son ''not to mind anything the father
tells him. The traveller addressed
the lad with: "You don't seem to
have very high vcncration for the
old gentleman 7" ooh, that's nobody
but father VIC don't care anything
for him |! Mother and L DON'T Nor
don't the rest Of us! and Bill and [
have almost got the dog so that he
wont mind him p Withsuch state
OF feeling, 10 family or government
could long maintain the respect of the
ncighbors or world, and certainly
never could be prosperous and happy.

AN IMPORTANT DECISION. The Su-
prcmc Court has decided, with but two
dissenting votes, that llc Southern
States are still constilu,ionally in the
Union. This decision has been in the
case of lhc ship Marshall, seized near
New Orleans during the war, which
vessel was insured N Boston company

writer's rcihscG payment on The ground
That tie seizure was illegal 4 Massa.
chusct's Court sustained the plea and
the case came before the Supreme court
on appeal, and the Supreme Court sus.
tanned the dccision on the ground that
the Confederate Government was illegal,
and the States never ont Of the Union.
This is, therefore, an important decision.
ii the, Southern States were never out OF
the Union, and the highest judicial
Court has decided that they were not, it.
follows that these Southern States, being
still III the Union, arc entitled to ali
Their rights as co-equal sovereign States,
and that allthe Reconstruction measures
OF Congress are unconstitutional, null
and void.

Hon. j. TT. F1r1cv:
DEAR SIR :-Ihave long, aud with
as much ability as l could command,
reflected upon tho subject of the De
claratlon of independence, and finally
have come to the sincere conclusion
that universal suffrage was ono of The
lnalicnable rights intended to be en-
braced in that instrument by our faith
crs at tho time of tho declaration !;
and that they were prevented from
inserting it in tho Constitution by
slavery alone
They had no intention to abandon
i. na one Of the finally enumerated
rights, but simply to postpone it.
The Committee on Reconstruction
have inserted that provision with
great unanimity in the bill admitting
the State Of Alabama into the Union.
The have finally resolved that no
State shall be admitted ihto the Union
under that condition.
l have deemed this notice necessary
That the States now in process of con
Structlon or reconstruction may be ad-
Visca thereof.
