TIE AcourrTA1 OF THE PRssDENT.-The
acquittal of the President, the final adjourn
ment OF the impeachment court, and the resig-
nation of Secretary Stanton seems to give great
relief to the business men of the country Of all
parties. The New York Journal Of Commerce,
leading commercial journal remarks:
We congratulate the country upon the re-
suit. The removal by impeachment Of any
President, unless he WAS admi tied to be q
criminal by impartial men Of oil parties, would
be pSecedent most dangerous to our iilstltu-
tions, and we think both the friends and foe
Of Mr.. johnson will ere long see the wisdom OF
this decision.
The Herald considers the final vote on i'm
peachment as defeat Of the extremists in the
The New York Tribune (RadicaD says it is a
tainted verdict, and was procured by the use OF
money.
The World says, ''by the defeat of impeach-
rment we have been saved from entering the
road to Mexican anarchy" and acknowledges
that the de eat is due to the manly course ol
Chief Justice Chase.
The New York Times (RepubGcan) thinks
that the people will be grati6ed at the conciu-
sion Of the impeachment trial, and hopes that
Congress will now proceed to business.
We have various ether extracts OF similar
character before US, but want Of space compels
us to omit them. They all generally concur in
expressing satisfaction that the whole subject
Of impeachment has been dropped.

GAMING AFFAIR BETWEEN UNITED STATES
SENATOR AND UNITED STATES MARSHAL
A lively fracas between two high Radical func-
tionaries took place on Baik-street In front Of
the Cnstomhouse yesterday afternoon. The
beligerent parties were Mr.. Joseph Segar,
ranking .s'United, States Senator from Ylr,
ginia, and Mr.. Charles Van Wrinkle, United
States Marshal for the district There were
The usual number Of conflicting accounts Of
the origin Of the disturbance Of the peace, and
the parties themselves were rather taciturn,
but we CLEAN the following as the truth: MIR.
Segar approached Mr.. Van Wrinkle on the
Customhouse portico, and charged him with
an improper use Of his name in regard to some
political matter or application for Office. Van
Winkle denied the "soft impeachment" and,
persisting in the denial, Segar waxed hot.
Angry words passed and such tender epithets
as rascal" ''liar," "d-n rascal, and "d-n
length Segar boiled over. he held in his hand
stout walking cane. That cane was uplifted,
and it descended upon the shrinking shoul-
ders of The Marshal. There was a change Of
base upon the part Of the latter from the por-
tico TO the pavement The Senator" follow
ed, and now seizing his unlucky adversary,
dealt him series of b ows In quick succession,
damaging dress and person to an amount not
yet assessed. It seems that Van Winkle did
not do anything more than pick up rock by
way o. Jtalation, said rock remaining In his
hand until the row was over. Inc Gaming
might have gone on for an indefinite period
had not Mayor Ohahoon arrived upon the scene
and commanded the peace. segar then went
back to the customhouse and Van Wrinkle went
0down the street." The former was imme-
diately surrounded by admiring friends, to
whom the story was rehearsed.

Baptist Home Mission Society.

New Yoax, May T.-At the session Of the
Baptist Home Mission Society to-day, Dr..
Turnbull, Of Connecticut, read communica-
ton OF the committee appointed yesterday
afternoon to consider the report OF the North
ern delegates to the late Southern Convention
at Baltimore. The committee commended the
fraternnlsp spirit exhibited BY the Southern Bap-
lists, but avoided coinciding with the claim
they made that they thought Themselves right
lion. ]. G. Warren, OF Boston, OF. posed imme-
date action.
Rev. Mr.. Bright, editor of the Examiner in
this city, alluded to the remarks made last
evening by Rev. J. l.. Broadhurst, Of South
Carolina, to the effect that such missionaries
should be appointed to the South as Baptlsts
Of the South might sanction and that the reli-
gious education OF the freedmen should Lie with
their original friends. MIR. Bright insisted
that the North would never give up the right
Of having hand in the work, and that as q
South Carolinian had perfect freedom OF
speech at the North, 30 should Northern men
enjoy the privilege at the South. The speaker
found fault with the assertions OF Southern
delegates that they themselves are }. right n
George W. Sampson, Of Washington, urged
peace and unity.
DR.. Manlg, ui uI South Carolina, said brother
nad observed last evening that if the Southern
delegates would speak at home as they had
here they could safely be trusted with the
Southern missionary work. he assured those
present that they would do so, but he could not
sanction the raising of the negroes to the full
duties aud priviles OF citizenship. The North
might force this measure on the South, but he
felt it would lead to the abandonment Of their
homes by the white inhabitants.
The report Of the Committee on Southern
Delegations was then adopted.

PendIeton and Hancock.

The contest has narrowed down to Pendle'
| ton and Hancock. Unless some third party
| should be taken up, merely as a compromise,
| Pendleton and Hancock will receive almost the
entire vote Of the Democratic Convention on
the second ballot. 1t cannot be denied that
the War Democrats are making q desperate
| effort to secure the nomination Of Hancock;
and, in this effort, they are ably seconded BY
those who are manipulating the wires FOR the
! bondholders.
| Pendleton is still far ahead, but the Hancock
men seem determined to relax no effort to pre-
sent the claims OF their favorite in the strong
est possible shape. The great masses OF the
people-the real Democracy-are enthusiastic
FOR Pendleton; and we see nothing, as yet. to
alter our opinion that he will be the nominee
of the New York Convention. II any other
candidate is chosen, nothing but an endorse
ment Of Pendleton's greenback policy will sat
isfy his friends in the West.
In common with the entire people of the
South we look forward with anxiety and inte-
rest to the assembling of the convention. Its
sessions may be stormy, but we trust the dele
gates win be patriotic enough to sink all per-
sonal preferences in the common desire 10 re-

spirit with questions in regard TO which the
truth is Of the utmost importance to the South
ern delegates to the Democratic Convention.
It seems to be settled that they are to consult
alore the success of the party in the Northern
States, and that the opinions OF Northern De-
mocrats are to be conclusive as to the requls.
ties Of that success. But in the contest OF
conflicting opinions among Northern Demo-
Gratis, the elements may be 30 equally matched
that decision in regard to the proper choice
will rest with the Southern delegates.
Lo,t,suaRe Courier.
It will be 8 sad and sorry day for the Southern
delegates that shall see them stepin to decide
contest against that presidential candidate to
whom the hearts Of the Northern and Western
Democracy are turned, and upon whom they
rely as leader, to secure success. It will be an
awful, yes, we may add, fatal responsibility.
No true friend Of the South, no man who de-
sires her to escape from under the iron heel OF
despotism, could contemplate for one moment
her taking such position. II it is offered
her, it will be for her interest to Indignantly
decline it. The next President, If elected by
the Democracy, will be chosen alone by the
vote of the North. It's Democracy, and it
alone, are the judges Of the best issue to pre-
sent in that section. The South, by arTaying
itself for the candidate in antagonism with the
Western Democracy, as it did in 1860, would
postpone for years, IL not forever, the hour of
its redemption. CIncinnGH Enquirer.
