Progress Of the Impeachment.
WashingtOp, March

Washington, March 3.
The articles of Impeachment, ten in
number, were yesterday adopted by the
House OF representatives., by stong vote.
The highest republican voto reaching l2o
ayes the lowest los ayes, OH the tenth ar
ticle, concerning President johnson dec
larations to Gen. Emory The highest
democratic vote vas IS nays, and the lowest
80 nays. 1t was expected that the mana.
gers on the part Of tic House would pres
ent articles Of impeachment to the Senate
to day consequently the galleries of the
Senate were entirely filled at an early
hour.
The manag rs selec cd hy tlr house met
this morning at eleven clock, and il was
decided not to present articles 10 the Ecu
ate until tomorrow. Many members OF
the Committee favor adding one OF
more additional articles, based upon acts Of
ths President previous to the Stanton af
fair. bat this is seriously opposed hy the
other members OF the Comuittec. The
Indications are that tho Committee will re-
main in session during the NEST Of to day,
III consequence ofthe action OF portion u

The President has not yet selected his
counsel for the trial, but among those Ike

VOL. 9-NO. SO.
A Republican Opinion.

The New York Times, Republican. but
very fair and candid paper, expressse the
following opinion on the Impeachment.
CUSTOM
In our judgement, the impeachment OF
the president is wholly out of place so long
as the constitutionality of this law, (the
tenure of oficel, is in controversy IF the
law is uncon> >titutional, and therefore null
and void, then the president Las commit
ted no cffense and done nothing to deserve
impeachment. And neither the house nor
the Senate is the proper tribunal for de
Gliding this question. 1t certainly would be
very extraordinary spectacle to see Cong
ress pass law creating an offense and pre-
scribing a penalty, and then acting at once
as prosecutor, judge, jury and executioner
upon the President for violations of its
provisions. Such proceedings confounds
all our ideas Of the distribution Of power
among different departments Of the Gov
ernment. We do not believe the Senate
will take such action in the present case.
That body will probably wait the action Of
the Supreme Court in the case growing out
OF Mr.. Stanton's proceedings against Gen.
Thomas. If the law is sustained by the
court, impeachment may go on. IF not. it
will probably be dropped, for we do not
think the Senate is prepared to set aside
that court or to disregard its DECISIONS alto
gether."
The Manitowoc pilot. [volume] (Manitowoc, Wis.) 1859-1932, 1868-03-06

Mr.. CROWLEY. short time since, in
an article published in the Plot, took oc-
casion to make few criticisms ON the Irt-
Ja,ne's com mcnts relative to a certain pub
lie school in this city, which remark the
editor has considered in tar more serious
light than was anticipated. The only
thing to which he seems to take very decld-
ed exceptions is in regard to "piece fur
ni.ure about two feet in length which bore
the marks of frequent use and which the
editor says he saw on teachers table,
What idea he intended to convey by the
use OF such language, we know not; but no
one who will read his former article can
come to any other conclusion than that a
ruler had been excessively used as means
of keeping scholars in subjection, SO much so
as to be marked. lie says the 'lDslnuation
is false and base," but if there is any false
hood in the statement his own words show
on whom it lies. | think his motives in
visiting the public schools were commend
able. However, while cracking jokes on
others he ought to take one on himself
without flying into a passion and calling
others liars for repeating his own state
mcutS.
?. s. The grammatical errors to which
he referred are all typographical.

The Presidents Message.

The message of the President delivered
to Congress on Monday of last week, and
said to have been in his own handwriting, is
an able, dignif I'd aud wholly unanswerable
argument in favor of his necessary and law
ful right to exercise the appointing power
and a complete vindication of his motives
and action in the matter of the STANTON re-
moval. 1t concludes with the following
statement of his reasons for attempting the
removal of Mr.. STANTON
"My order of suspension in August last
was intended to place the case IN such pos
sition as would make resort to a judicial
decision both necessary and proper. My
understanding and wishes, however, under
that order Of suspension were frustrated,
and the late order for Mr.. Stanton's re-
movnl was further step towards the ac-
complishment of that purpose. | repeat
that my own convictions as to the true con-
struction Of the aw and as to the constltu
tionalty were we'll settled and were sustain
ed by every member of my cabinet, includ
ing Mr.. Stanton himself, Upon the ques-
ton of constitutionality each one in turn
deliberately advised me that the tenure-of-
office act was unconstitutional. Upon the
question whether as to the members who
pere appointed by my predecessor, that act
took from me the power to remove them,
one of those members emphaticaly said in
the presence of the others sitting in cabin
ct, that they did not come within the pro-
vision of the act and it was no protection
10 them. No one dissented from this con-
structon and | understood them all to ac-
quiese in its correctness In matter of
such grave consequence | was not disposed
to rest upon my own opinion, though for.i-
fed by ny constitutional advisers. | have
therefore sought to bring the question at as
early day as possible before the Supreme
court of the United Sta.es for final and au-
thoritative decision"

FIRST OF MARCH. If we should use the
old saying that "March came in like a
lion," we would be telling an untruth, for
the first of the present month-last Sunday
came upon US more like one hundred
lions and FIVE hundred little lions all
bowling ia one wild chorus Of madness.
1t was an awful day, and so was the night
following ng-such night and day as was
never experienced by US during a residence
of twenty six years in Wisconsin. Snow
and wind had it their own way, and it was
uselcs. for man or beast to attempt to pre-
vail against the elements while they lasted.
March We do hope you will ego out like
q lamb or some other tame animal.

Selecting Cows.

a Vermonter' gives the following as bis
rules for selecting COW:
First get broadside view of the ami
NAL, at distance Of about two rods, as I
have noticed for years that there was a
great similarity in the general proportions
of all first class mixers. being very small
in girth just back of their forward legs, as
compared with the grth just forward of
their hips. [ have never known a first
rate mixer, Of any breed, not thus pro
portioned; so that if this form is wanting
IN an animal | have recommended to me, |
net care to look at her more. unless I wan;
breeder for some other purpose than the
diary, For breeding oxen | should want
COW of reverse proportions i. G., larger
girth forward. | next feel the size Of the
milk veins, and trace them to their en-
trance into the chest, which, in superior
cows, are large, admitting the ball of the
large finger; if divided or sub divided, as
is sometimes the case, Judge Of the size
of each orifce, as | care less for the size OF
the vein itself, than the lice Next,
| examine BY sight and touch, the udder
or bag, which must be capacious in order
to hold much milk, with teats wide apart
and free from large seeds, warts or sores of
any kind; then inquire how long she goes
dry before calving, as | don't want a FAM y
COW to give milk less than forty, six weeks
out Of every fifty two; also as to the quality
of the milk and to close, l milk her with
my own hands. -

A Scene in the House.

In the House of Representatives al Wash
ineton last Thursday the Speaker took the
chair and stated that be. had just received
from the Superintendent Of the Metropol-
itan Police letter sent him from the su-
perintendent Of the New York police,
making so grave a charge that he did not
feel justified in Withholding it from the i'm
mediate knowledge of the House. The
letter was read, as follows:
OFFICE .oF THE SUPERINTENDENT OF
TIE METROPOLITAN POLICE OF
NEW YORK, February 26, 1868.
Major a. G. Richards, Superintendent of
metropolitan Police, Washington, d. c.
SIR Il have just been called on by Col.
Tai. =. Shatfer, president Of the United
States Blasting Oil Company, with re-
quest to look up five cans of nitro glycerine,
which was delivered on an order from a
regular customer, but which order is now
pronounced to be & forgery. The quantity
OF oil IN the cans was about lG5 pounds, a
quantity sufficient to blow up the St. Mich
olas Hotel in New York. He fears it may
have Lccn obtained in the way it was for
foul purposes. as he latterly has had sew
etal applications by unknown persons for
the purchase Of the article to whom he re-
fused to sell, owing to their being strangers,
and would not explain any satisfactory pur-
pose for which they wanted it, lie informs
me that Though it was given out that the
stone walls of Clerkenwell prison were
blown down with gunpowder, the material
used was glyeine. Now, sir, this 165 pounds
has disappeared from New York, and if in
tended for mischief, it is more likely for
use in Washington thap elsewhere. l give
you this information to put you on your
guard. Very respectfully,
(Signed) JNo. \. KENNEDY,

FIRE AT KIEL-From the Chiffon Times
we learn that short time ago the kie Ho
tel, kept by CLAUS THIEssEN in Kiel, Man
itowoc county, was discovered 10 be on fire.
A large portion of the bar room floor, sides
and ceiling was burned The loss is cstima
ted at s275, which is covered by insurance.
Had the fire not been discovered for ten
minutes longer it would have been impos
sible to have saved the building. The fire
is supposed to have originated from can
die which was left by a boy in the cellar.
