Hampshire alarmed at the assaults which Gen.
Sickles is making upon the Democratic ranks in that
State have petitoned the President to order him to
his regiment at Mackinaw. Mr.. johnson has been
mean enough to comply with their request, land the
order has been issued. The probabilities are, how
however, that Gen. Sickles will prefer to resign
as large host of his friends urge him to take that
course.
The Post Office bill, which was passed to-day. ap-
propriates $19415,00O for that Department for the
next fiscal year. The total receipts from that branch
Of the service amounted last year to $1o,7ooOOV'
leaving deficiency of $2 100000. This deficiency is
caused by the expensive and unremuneratiye routes
in the South and in the distant Territories; ana 10
diminish this loss much as possible 1t Is suggesUed
that some plan should be adopted to make the ser
vice more remunerative to the Government. 1t is
recommended to open offices in certain localities
West and South from which, it is hoped, additional
revenue may be derived
| Mr. Buffers new article of impeachment is gener-
ally commented on this evening, Many hold that it
will enable Mr.. Johnson's counsel to prolong the
trial indefinitely should they feelso disposed. Others
who seem to understand it better say that such fears
are not well grounded.

The Supreme Court room was thronged to-day by
multitudes of both sexes who had been attracted by
the proceedings on the constituonality OF the re-
construction law in the case of the United States
against McArdle. The Hon. jeremiah Black finished
his argument against the law, and the Hon. Mat.
Carpenter of Wisconsin opened on the opposite side.
Mr.. Carpenters address, far, is regarded very
able, and exctes much attention in legal and other
circles He expects TO finish tomorrow.
About 80 cases of suspension under the Tenure-of-
Office law have been reported to the Senate, but so
