REVIVAL OF THE IMPEACHMENT PRoJEcT-
POSSIBLE IMPEACHMENT OF CABINET Off
GERS.
NEW YORK, Feb Ga Washington special
says the Grant-Johnson correspondence was
discussed by the Reconstruction Committee
yesterday, by whom it was debated at great
length and in a cool and dispassionate manner.
The committee were almost unanimously of
the opinion that the President, in ordering
Gen. Grant TO disobey the Secretary of War,
acted in clear violation of the laws, and that it
showed determination on his part to defeat
the laws of Congress. This phase of the cor
resnondence was discussed at length and IL
was finally agreed that a subcommittee con-
gisting of Representatives Bingham and Bout
well, should be appointed to investigate all the
facts hearing on it, and Has the committee
believe. the President has violated any of the
laws, said subcommittee are empowered TO
draw up articles of impeachment and present
them to the next meeting of the committee
The conduct of certain Cabinet otncerS Is also
to be investigated By the committee, and it, as
there is reason for supposing, conspiracy 20
defeat the law exists, the subcommittee Is en-
powered to include such officers in the articles
of impeachment. There seems to be little
doubt in the committee that johnson has at
last overstepped the line, and has put himself
completely at the mercy of Congress. 1t is
limited that the committee are in possession of
other facts duplicating Mr. johnson in actions
in Greet violation of law, and that no doubt
whatever exists that a clear case can be made
out against him. Gen. Grant is to be exam
ined by the committee during the week, and
the report will probably be presented to the
House on Monday. The subcommittee com
menced its session last night.
FUNDING THE NATIONAL DEBT.
The Senate Finance Committee will recon-.
mend the reduction of interest on the lone

than five per cent. 1t has not been decided
vet whether they will add any other features
TO the funding bill, The majority of the com
rnittee are adverse to the foreign loan clause
The entire bin will be ready in few days.

of creating revolt against the government.
Evening.-A man named Chatterton was
shot in the streets to-day, and badly, if not
fatally wounded. The assassin was Instantly

tant witness tor the government in the affair
of the Clerkenwell explosion, and who at the
examination of the prisoners before the Po-
lice Court identified oEe OF them as the man
