He hates Grant with all the intensity

The Impeachment Trial.

The Managers Saturday moved that the
Court change the 2lst rule so to allow as
many to take part in the final argument on
the part of the Managers, or on the part of
the Presidents counsel, may desire to be
heard.
The motion goes over until Monday.
Gen. Thomas explained and corrected some
portions of his testimony given Friday. He
said the President told him to take sscharge''
not possession of the war Office; and that
if he had said anything about & kicking that
fellow out, )" it was in Joke.
Gen. w. T. Sherman was then called. He
| testified that he arrived in Washington the
4th of December last and remained here two
months he came here on business connected
with the Indian Commission &; had several in
terviews with the President in relation to the
| difficulty with Mr.. Stanton, before and after
the latter's removal.
| Mr. Stanbery then asked what conversation
took place between him and the President on
the l4th of January in relation to the reno
val of Mr.. Stanton. The Managers objected
The Chief Justice ruled the question was
admissible and decision by the Senate
was called for, but before the yeas and NAYS
were taken, MIR Stanbery said ne regarded
the testimony as sought to be introduced as
vital to the case, and went on to remind the
Court that the Managers had introduced much
testimony in the effort to raise presumption
| of criminal intent on the part of the Presi-
dent, by testimony relating to what occurred
months before the 21st of February, and ar
gued that the counsel had an equal right to
bring forward rebutting testimony in order to
prove the Presidents honest intentions In
support of his position he quoted at length

ASSASSINATION OF DARCY MCGEE.-The
much excited and startled last week by the
assassination of Hon. Thomas d Arcy McGee.
who for some years past has occupied prom
inent political position in Canada. Mr.. Nc
Gee was shot as he was entering his house at
Ottawa about clock in the morning, hav-
ing just left the Parliament House. 1t is
supposed that the act was the work of some
Fenian. Suspected persons have been ar
rested, and the Canadian government are
confident that man they have in custody,
an freshman by the name of Whalen, is the
guilty party.
MCGEE was an Irishman who, after push
ing his fortunes without much success in
this country, went to Canada. He was born
in Carlingford, Ireland, April 13, 1926
When seventeen years old he came to this
country and engaged in writing for the Bos-
ton newspapers. On his return to Ireland
he became one of the editors of the Nation
In 1S47 he had falling out with DAME
O'Connell, and in 1S49 thought it prudent
to leave the country. He came to New York
and for some time published a paper called
the Nation. Removing to Canada. he tool
an active part in politics. and has been since
1857, almost constantly in Office. When the
Fenian movement took shape Mr.. MCGEE de
nounced it in unsparing terms.
BY his death the New Dominion loses ont
of it's most active politicians

AN INCIDENT IN THE WAR OFFICE lMBROGLIO.
The report we have given on the outside
of this paper does not give in detail the fol-
lowing testimony of Gen. Thomas
Gen. Thomas. Mr.. Stanton turned to me
and got TALKING in familiar manner. | said:
q The next time you have me arrested please
do not do it before | get something to eat.
[ said had had nothing to eat or drink that
day. lie put his arm around my neck, as
he sometimes does, and run his hand through
nv hair and turned around TO Gen. Schriyer
and said " Schriver, you have got bottle
here, bring it out" (Laughter.) Schriyer
unlocked his case and brought 1t out, small
vial containing, suppose, about spoonful
of whiskey, and stated at the same time that
he occasionally took a little for dyspepsia.
Uaughter-)
Mr.. Stanton took that and poured it into a
tumbler, and divided it equally, and we
drank it together.
Mr. Stanbery asked fair division -
! Gen Thomas-A fair division, because he
held up the glasses to the light and saw that
they each had about the same and we each
drank. (Laughter)
Presently messenger came in with bot
tie of whiskey--a full bottle; the cork was
drawn, and he and took drink together
- Now" said he, q this at least is neutral
ground" (Laughter.)
Thomas can hardly com plain that Stanton
didn't 'streat' him well.

The Connecticut ELECTIoN-The Spring
field Republican is responsible for the follow
ing explanation of the large Democratic vote
in Hartford and New Haven, at the recent
election
IF the truth were known, probably the
vote cast in the third and fifth wards Of New
Haven and the sixth of Hartford constitutes
one of the most touching tributoo to tho
memory of the departed, known to history
Men, strangers to the deceased, without a
social or family tie to connect them, came all
the way on from New York to vote in the
name of individuals who had been dead for
wears. Such characteristic and beautiful
trait in this party is almost enough to make
man a Democrat, that when he himself
is gone, he shall still have those who will
bear his name, remember his virtues, and
vote the straight ticket g in his room. -
The New York Evening Post says
The little affair in Connecticut, the other
day. appears to have been almost too much
for the democratic newspapers. The World
was quite overcome, and has hardly yet re-
covered a number of the other papers suf-
fered in a similar way; and the Pittsburgh
Post breaks out in row of rampant roosters,
Growing over the platform of principles
which the Post supposes to have been sue
cessful in the Connecticut election.
4 We cannot do Justice to it's pictorial effort
but here are it's principles
4 " Democracy triumphant = @ Right side
up this time - - Greenbacks for bonds -
:. No negro suffrage
+ This then, is the celebrated Democratic
platform?

The Consul TO QUEBEc.-The Newport
(Vt) Express says that Mr.. Charles Robin
son, confirmed the other day L. S. Consul
to Quebec, was noted throughout that entire
section g as an opponent of the war, an op-
poser of bounties, a man who would cheer
for JEFF. Davis when on British soil, in hort
well known leader of the democratic part p"
The Express adds 1t is not strange that
the republicans in this section should feel
indignant at this action of the Senate after
knowing the facts, and that the more they
think of it the more indignant they become
We say nothing now of the influences or the
persons who brought about this result. All
these will we trust, ere long to be known,
and we may, hereafter have occasion to refer
to them more fully

The ALABAMA CLAIMs.-It would seem
from statements made during the debate in
the British House of Lords on the 9th ult
that new turn may soon be given to the
Alabama question. The Lord Chancellor, in
answer to a remark of Lord Westbury, said
- His noble and learned friend had spoken
of the negotiations as having been broken
off. He wished, therefore, to explain that
Mr.. Stewards last communication contained
a proposal, couched in somewhat general
terms, that there should be commission to
inquire into all claims. Upon that his noble
friend the Foreign Secretary requested Mr..
Seward to develope more accurately what he
designed or aimed at by such commission
and the negotiations. he thought, were at
present waiting for communication from
Mr.. Seward on that score
1t has been for some time manifest that
the English government were anxious to have
their claims adjusted in some way, and as
the ministry which come to the dead-loc k
with Mr.. Seward, is now out of power in
England, the question is in fair way to be
reconsidered, and decided in a spirit of JUS
tice toward their country.

ST.. LOUIS, March 11.-Advices from
Fort Laramie say that the Indians who
have congregated at that post manifest g
very friendly feeling, and have come to
meet the Peace Commissioners with the
view of making a treaty with them. Mr.
Matthews, special agent, who had an in
terview with the Crows and Sioux, near
Fort Phil. Kearney, last month, reports
them in favor of peace with the whites.
Red Cloud is the most hostile OF
the Sioux Chiefs, and all the Apache
Indians were there en- route for Fort
Laramie to meet the peace commissioners.
Gen. Sherman has received instructions
from Washington, to withdraw the garri-
sons of forts Reno, Fort Smith, and Phil
Kearney, as soon as the season will permit.
These troops will be distributed to other
posts, because the line on which they are
at present located is scarcely used by en-
migrants, preferring the line of the Mis-
souri, river via Fort Benton. They also
prefer to travel by way of the Pacific rail-
road to its terminus, and then by the old
route.
