IMpEAcHMENr.-The trial of the President

1MPEAcHMENT.-The trial of the President
was resumed on Monday. Butler opened the
case in an able speech lasting three hours
The Managers then offered certain official
documents as evidence. Witnesses were then
introduced CIV. Creery. Treasury clerk,
Van Horn, NJ. c., Morehead, NJ c., and
Burleigb, Delegate from Dakota, were
brought upon the stand to testify. Stanbery
objected to calling the last witness, when
Butler said he expected to prove by him that
General Thomas told him that he intended
to take possession of the War Office by furce
Stanbery objected to the evidence, and the
Chief Justice sustained the objection. Butler
addressed the Court in opposition to the view
taken by the Chief Justice, and claimed that
he had not the power to decide upon the
admissibility of evidence. The Chief Justice
stated his Willingness to let the Senate decide
as to the correctness of his rulings. Bout
well argued that the Constitution vested in
the Senate exclusive authority over all
questions which could arise on the trial. The
Senate then retired for consultation.

prevented great amount of bad legislation

fact. The Sacramento Union says "the ad-

the people" and the San Jose Mercury fer

HEAvY-There have been many hard
things said of Andrew johnson, but the

last number of the London Spectator. 1t is
related that the new English Ambassador,
Mr.. Thornton, before his departure for the
United States, having praised Mr.. johnson s
frmness to Yankee, who evidently did not
see it, lowered his tone, and said, "Weil, at
any rate. you must admit that he is com.
pletely self made man )" to which the Yam

so, indeed, for it would relieve the Almighty
