THE POLITICAL MILL.

We mink we may say IL Without III
curing the charge Of fanaticism tha
,he political outlook embraces a prob
lem. or rather a good many problems
that are very difficult to solve with per.
feet satisfaction. First and foremost
there is the Impeachment trial. We
know but precious little of what is
actually taking place in that political
pandemonium, Washington City. Per
hitting Imagination to play we see the
members of the High Court wrestling
over the verdict which they must soon
embarrassing in secret, with closed
aad bolted doors Sumner and Drake
and the other Radical Radicals anxious,
active and persistent in advocating I'M
qualified decision against Johnson !;
Fesseuden, Trumbull, Grimes and the
other more wary and conservative Re-
publicanS moving cautiously and saving
what they may of pet law points and
Esyerdy Johnson, Buckalew and Gar
-e.t Davis fighting with might and
main for the Presidents escape. All
this IS taking place, no doubt-so
very gentle stretch of TIE most ordinary
imagination suggests, anyhow and
while tie like is going on, the verdict,
which must be very nearly decided
u9ou. IS soon to be delivered to add to
s.1i enlarge the complications of the
ro:..icai situation. For if johnson is

We are waiting Tor the verdict, ner-
voasly a2d spt culalively, the field of
battle is being prepared wherein
G-&ut will stand, as of late, al the |
