STANTON ONCE DETAILED TO VETO IT
THE FINAL RESULT, &C., &c.

WASHINGTON, April 1.-THE House
went into the Impeachment Court without
doing any business.
The Court is ordered to meet hereafter
at IL o'clock.
Attached to Buffers speech in the Globe
are the Treasury tabular statements. The
Court ordered them to be stricken out.
eButler wanted to explain, but the Court
would not listen.
The evidence regarding the Presidents
western speeches was commenced.
Second Dispatch.
WASHINGTON, April l7.-John W. An
thony, Of Cleveland, testified that most OF
the Presidents speech there was in re-
spouse to Interruptions. A large majority
Of the crowd were disorderly.
Barton Abel, of St. Louis, testified that
the Presidents speech there was delivered
at the earnest solicitation of citizens.
Others testified about the western
speeches, but nothing new was elected.
Frederick W. Seward testified regarding
the routine of appointing certain officers.
More documentary evidence regarding
removals was presented and admitted.
Secretary of the Navy Welles was
called. He testified that he was appointed
in 1861 by President Lincoln. His son
reported to him having been to party

repair to headquarters. He directed his
son to inform the President of this, and
next day himself informed the President
Question.-What passed between you
and the Presidents
Objection was made.
Judge Chase decided to hear the an
swer.
Answer.-The President said he didn't
know what Emory meant, and would send
for him. At the Cabinet meeting on the
same day the President mentioned Stan.
toms removal and Thomas's appointment
and that Stanton had yielded, only requi.
ring time to remove his papers.
A long argument enSued on the admlssl.
bility of this evidence.
Judge Chase decided the evidence un'
doubtedly admissible.
Butler appealed, and Chase was sus
tained-26 to %.
Witness went on to say that he. saw the
nomination of Mr.. Ewing to the War Of
fee in the hands of the President.
The defence asked questions regarding
the Cabinet discussions on the tenure-of
office bill intended to prove that the Cab
met unanimously objected to it on account
of it's .unconstitutionality, and that Seward
and Stanton were assigned to the duty o
preparing veto message for it.
Objection was made. Butler opened a
length, and Evarts followed and the cour
then adjourned.
THE DEFERRED ARGUMENT.
The argument on this point will be con
tinued tomorrow. It is regarded as,ver.
important, in view of the sources of in
| formation from which the President de
rived his ideas of duty under the Constitu
ton and laws to the country and to him
self, and fixing, to a great extent, tn

The greatest Mass Meeting ever held in
in New York City took place at Tammany
Hall, on the night Of the 9Th inst. The
Democratic torchlight procession was esti-
mated, by experienced policemen, to have
in its ranks over 10000 and exceeded ten
miles in length. The telegraph gives the
following description Of the scene and crowd ::
"The scene in Union Square was grand
From the main stand, the Temple of Liberty,
which was splendidly illuminated, strings of
lights stretched to Tammany Hall, and the
streets in the vicinity seemed literally on fire
with calcium lights, rockets, fire paintings
and fire balloons
The main stand facing Broadway was the
center of attraction outside of Tammany Hall
though there were six other stands at which
speeches were made to the immense throng,
roughly estimated at half million of per-
sons, men, women and children.

mund Williams, Conservative colored man,
bought recently at a sale $50 worth Of
property, on credit. Several gentlemen,
as an evidence Of their respect for him and
their confidence in his integrity, went his
security. His sureties are worth about
$3.50, 900. Our colored people will find
out soon, we trust, that honesty, industry,
and attachment to their own people will give
them what their Radical advisers never can

HON. HORATIO SEYMOUR,
OF NEW YORK
FOR VTCE PRESIDEN.Y
Gen. FRANCIS P, BLAIR,
OF MISSOURI

The Republicans of Louisiana have nomi
atedJ. Wills Menard (colored) for Congress,
to fill the unexpired term of COL Mann, Of
the End District He announces his accept
ances in card, in which he says:
1.-THE time has fully come to test the pro-
fessions and principles of those who now
control the republican party of Louisiana.
1t is a sacred duty we owe ourselves (the
colored people, to see that the colored race
is not sold out by few trading, treacher-
GUS white republicans in Louisiana, as it has
been in Georgia.
''This State is entitled to seven represen-
tatives in Congress. Are not the colored
people entitled to at least two out of the
number? Is it not our duty to see that at
least two colored citizens are selected to re-
present in Congress the 10000 colored vo-
tiers of the State?
'The ballot means equal representation as
we'll as equal rights, and if men are still to
be debarred from the halls of Congress, or
even the White House, on account of the
color of their faces. then reconstruction and
republicanism are lamentable failures. It is
necessary that the forty-frst Congress should
possess more backbone than the present one,
in order, to fix plain provision in the su-
preme law Of the republic which shall COD
fer the ballot on every citizen, regardless of
race or color, North, South East or West"
Just so. Reconstruction is an outrage
GUS swindle on the black man unless the
Halls Of Congress and the White House are
open to him and unless he possesses the bal
lot North, East and West as well as South
He will find that Reconstruction is also
failure and that he has been swindled
if the above issues are pressed. He was
not allowed the ballot South for the desire
to accord him rights, but simply to humili-
ate the Southern people and through car
pet-baggers and scalawags to seize the con-
troll Of their affairs. When the colored peo-
pie demand the ballot in the North, East,
and West, Or that the doors Of Congress and
the White House shall be thrown open to
them, they will learn that they have not
only been swindled, in order to Cypress their
old friends, the Southern whites, but that
Reconstruction and Republicanism are eyre
gious failures.

The Democracy made a magnificent dis

The Democracy made magnificent dis
play last night. They had an immense pro-
cession, and their uniformed companies bear
ing torches, filled the streets with fire, and
marched like an army with banners There
was the usual trail of boys, but the ranks
were noticeably full Of young men, The
evening was pleasant, and there was pro-
digious number of people on the sidewalks,
who were, as far as we observed, remarka-
bly, quiet. The imposing turnout, of last
night shows the power that there is still in
the traditions and the name of the Demo-
cratic party, and admonishes all who feel
that it is of the utmost public Importance to
defeat that party install, that they must not
trust too much to the prestige of the name
Of their leader, Grant or overestimate the
potency there is in good cause. There has
been, in the last half century, but one party
capable of graphing with the Democratic
party, and that is the Republican party
and that is capable of complete and final vic
tory, but must earn it by discipline, hard
work, and persevering attention to details.

Mr.. Floyd was dead. The heated orator,

The Revolution in Spain is a success

The Revolution in Spain is a success
The Royal troops went over to the Revolu-
tionists in body Queen Isabella disban-
ded her Cabinet at San Sebastian and is a
fugitive in France, together with several 9TH
er dignitaries Her Prime Minister went
over to the Revolutionists. Marshal Serrano
and seven Generals entered Madrid in tri-
umph, on the 3rd inst, and were received
with wild enthusiasm by the people. A
grand procession took place, and banners
were displayed with such notices as, "Down
with the Bourbons," ssThe sovereignty of
the People, Religious Liberty ''Free
Education" &c., &C., eminently expressive
Of popular feeling.
A review of the National Guard followed,
after which Marshal Serrano delivered pa
triotic address to the citizens and soldiers, in
which he announced that he had united with
Gen. Prim in calling Espartero to the head
of the State.
A new cabinet has been completed, with
Marshal Serrano as President.
The Queen has issued protest against
the revolution. It is likely to be as futile
as the Queens forcible resistance to the Rev
olutionists.

In response to letter Of inquiry as to the
receipts and expenditures of the Govern
ment for the past three fiscal years, and the
estimated expenditures and receipts for the
current fiscal year, 1869, Mr.. Delmar,
Director of the Bureau of Statistics Of the
Treasury Department, makes the astounding
disclosure that the estimated expenditures
will exceed the estimated receipts, for the
present fiscal year, by 1854, 339, 202, to be
made up by additional taxation or loans
He says additional taxation is deemed i'm
possible and there is no way out of the diff
Guilty except to increase the public debt.
The Radicals and Republicans have es-
sayed to deny the truthfulness of the State
ment Of Mr.. Delmar, so damaging with its
array of deficiency figures to their interest,
but of no avail. The Hon. Robt. J. Walk
er, by consent of Secretary McCulloch, has
examined the books Of the Treasury Depart
ment His results sustain Mr. Delmar's
recent exhibit and his statement indicates
that at the present rate of increase the debt
will be doubled in fourteen years,-long be-
fore which time, unless better counsels pro-
vail, the Government will be bankrupt.
How the Radicals get rid of these figures
patriots care not, but how the country is to
get through the difficulty is the rub. In
creased debt and probable bankruptcy of the
Government are likely to open the eyes of
patriots to the dangers of a continuation Of
Radical rule and policy. Whether they will
profit by Mr. Delmars disclosure remains to
be seen..in November.

Mr.. Dana accepted the nomination and

position assumed by General Butler on the
