on being examined, show that it was placed
TO Woofey's credit by one Delong, who on
being puf on the stand, denies that he can
recoiiect from whom he received it for that
purpose. Here the traces of that ten thou

ILLNESS OF WITNESSES.
1t is q singular fact that the managers
have been detained more by the sickness of
witnesses than from all other causes COM
bined, and that at one time there was
upon General Buffers table certificates from
physicians covering nine witnesses, all i'll

RARE DEVELOPMENTS LOOKED FOR.
There are number of witnesses yet to be
called, and there will be some very rich de-
velopments when Mr.. Butler's final report
comes to be made. He will show that very
large sums of money were raised to defeat
impeachment. Circumstantial evidence is
very clear where some of it went to, and
how other corrupt influences were at work,
and where the moneyed influences in the
Indian Bureau haG their hold upon certain
men who disappointed their friends, and
went for acquittal They had witness up
yesterday who was formerly clerk to the
Senate Committee of which Mr.. Pomeroy
was chairman, and who franked Mr.. Pome-
roy's documents and letters, and who is now
clerk in the Treasury Department, and

that he declined to do it, and was called
upon second time and thousand dollars
offered hin, to do il, but be positively refused,
and that he does not know who they next
applied to or if they got the letter they de-
sired. This letter, it should be noted, has
never been produced by Cooper, nor have
any of the managers or Senator Pomeroy's
friends ever seen it. This witness, Lewis,
is not friend of Mr.. Pomeroy's, but is re-
lated to Perry Fuller. There are several
witnesses here from Cincinnati who are to
testify further in regard to Wooley,s bank
account.
His Cincinnati client, to whom he first
swore he had sent sixteen thousand dollars,
denies having had any business involving
any such item, and no amount of money
was sent to him by Mr.. Wooley at any time.
His bank account there shows he has had
large sums of money and was leading
man in the whisky ring, but according 10
statements of bank men to outsiders. But
these men do not know what other ceues
Butler and Logan may have.
Messrs. Bingham, Boutwell, and Williams
are at home, and Messrs. Butler and Logan
are conducting the case during their ab-

THE TAX BILL.
The House made such progress, yesterday
on the Tax-bill that if it runs along as rap
idly for few days more, it will very likely
pass the House, and if it does, the Senate
will not consent to an adjournment until
they have acted upon it. To pass it
through that body will take until August
