PrOel.eSs of Impeachment,

There is not much progress report in the
impeachment trial since last week Mr.. Ey
arts of the Presidents counsel commenced
his argument Tuesday of last week, and oc
eupied the sessions of the court until Friday
at p. NJ. Mr.. Stanbery occupied the re-
mainder of Fridays session, and the whole
of Saturday, closing the arguments for Mr..
johnson. Mr.. Bingham of the Managers
spoke Monday and yesterday, and whether
he has vet finished his address we have no
means of knowing.
The arguments of Mr.. Evarts and Mr.
Stanbery were very able. Mr.. Evarts had no
manuscript, and commanded the attention of
the Senate much better than those who
read their arguments. His address was
somewhat dscursive, but as an Grafton was
unquestionably the great speech of the case.
1t will undoubtedly, however, add much
more to Mr. Evarts' fame than to Mr. j John
sons
1t is not possible to predict when a verdict
will be reached. OF course, the end will
come this week if the Senator'S do not discuss
the questions presented to them before yot-
ing but if such discussion is commenced,
one cannot tell where it will conclude. News
paper correspondents still confidently pc
dict a conviction, on some of the articles ut
least We do not see as the arguments for
the defense have added much, except in the
way of oratory, to Mr.. Curtis opening, orthe
arguments for the Managers to Mr.. Buffers
presentation of the case.

i DiSrraceful Scene.

If it were possible for the intempelate
speech of members to disgrace the Hous, of
Representatives of the United States, more
than it has been dinsroood by former exhib-
itions of personalities, that body sank last
Saturday to a lower depth than ever before.
One Donnelly, Republican member %
Congress from Minnesota, made a furious
onslaught upon Mr.. Washburne, of Illinois.
Sometime since Mr.. Washburnc wrote i let
ter to one Of Mr.. Donnelly's constituents,
making charges against Donnelly in connec-
ton with bill then before the House. Dom
nelly caused this letter to be read. and then
for an hour and-a-half poured out a most dis
gushing and vile torrent of personal abuse
and vtuperation. Speaker Colfax repeatedly
called Donnelly to order but the House
made his offense their own by listening and
applauding the speaker and at the expira-
ton of his hour voted to give him more time
Much of his diatribe is too indecent for
publication. After he had concluded, Mr..
Colfax expressed great regret that he had
been unable to stop the scandalous exhib-
ition, and ordered his own protest to 90 upon
the recOTu. tldl IL uliShI appear tldt nc lt1
performed his duty.
Mr. Eyarts, in his defense of the President
from the tenth article Of impeachment
charging Mr.. johnson with making indecen;
and unbecoming speeches when = swinging
around the circle quoted from a personal
debate between MessIs. Bingham and But
Ter, in the House, in which the =" prophecies
of speech > were quite little attended
to as by the President. But if he could have
had the specta Gle of Saturday to hold up he
fore the Senate,-a House now calling into
judgment the President for improper speeches,
and. while the trial is in progress listening
in its own chamber, with laughter and APP
plause, to language, in comparison with
which Mr.. Johnson's TRADES are but play
full badinage.-he could have asked with
great force that the Managers correct their
own manners and the manners of the body
they represent, before they arroign anybody
for indecencies of speech.

The Obligations of an Oath.

Mr.. Evarts, in his elaborate argument IN
defense of the President, in order to impress
upon the Senate the necessity of keeping
themselves free from all partisan bias IN
judging his client, discoursed thus upon the
solemn o5lig ,tion they had taken to sup
port the Constitution
Truth, Justice. Oath, Duty, are the ideas
which the constitution has forced upon your
soul to-day. You receive them, or you neg
lect them Whichever way you turn, you
cannot be the same men afterwards that you
were. Accept them, embrace and obey them,
and you are nobler, and stronger, and better !;
spurn and reject them and you are worse,
and baser, and weaker, and wickeder than
before IL is by this that free government
must be always held to the power of duty,
to the maintenance of its authority and to the
prevalence of its own struggle for its perpet-
nal existence. They are little words but
they have a great power Truth to the
moral world is what gravitation is to the
material world. 1t is the principle on which
it is established and coheres. The adaptation
of truth to the affairs of men is, in human
life, what the mechanism of the Heavens is
to the principle which sustains the forces of
the globe. Duty is acceptance of obedience

\ Washington special has the following

1t is rumored that there are enough Re
publican Senators to hold the balance of
power, who are determined that a verdict on
impeachment shall not be given until Mr.
Wade will pledge himself that nc will not
call to the Cabinet any member of Congress.
1t is claimed that to do so would shock the
nation, for the reason that no man in the SEN
ate or House should profit by his vote for i'm
parchment.
We know there are some Senators who
would not accept Office under Mr.. Wade for
the reason above stated and if Mr. Wade
succeeds to the presidential office, we certain
ly hope he viii call no member Of Congress
to his Cabinet who has been active in the
impeachment trial, or has voted as Il Senator
for the conviction of Mr.. Johnson

FOREIGN. The Disraeli Ministry has been
again dccisively defeated on the Irish church
question, on Mr.. Gladstone 6 resolution for
the disendowment of the Church Disraeli
and Gladstone closed the debate and at half
past two O'Clock last Friday morning the
vote taken. and the resolutions were
adopted by a majority of sixty-six,-a gain
of six since the vote of three weeks ago
Disraeli informed the House after the result
was announced that the ministry wanted
time to consider what course to pursue. They
threaten a dissolution of Parliament and an
appeal to the people, but the London Times
says this threat is only made to brighten the
members The final and speedy success of
the measure is now looked upon as certain.

said an adverse vote was no disgrace to the
Ministry but to hold office after such vote
was. There was no reason why constitution
al practice should be dispensed with in favor
of Mr.. Disraeli, who knew well enough that
no Church or Scotch Reform bill, not OF a
nature to suit the Irish and Scotch Liberals,
could pass the House: Reform the mr., lrisn
Church. and ireland will be at peace Ihcse
things are possible with the Ministry IN ac-
cord with the House
Mr.. Disraeli said the Liberals had right

ed why they had not done So lie then hH-

THE NATIONAL FINANCES

The fact that the Treasury exhibit for May
Ist shows diminution of the Public Debt dur
ing April by Two Millions, and an increase of
the money in the Treasury by more than Six
teen Millions-together showing gain of more
than Eighteen Millions of Dollars-is very graft
fying, but the exhibit is, unhappily, inaccu-
rate. To make it thoroughly lucid and
Trustworthy, the amount of accrued interest
should always be added to the principal
of each outstanding obligation. For in
stance The aggregate interest-bearng
Debt somewhat exceeds Twenty-Five Hundred
Millions of Dollars, whereon the interest accru-
ing monthly is about Eleven Millions. Now
suppose none of this interest fell due and was
paid in April (which, we believe, was nearly the
case) the actual amount of Debt was increased by
so much hence, the gain of the Treasury was
not really Eighteen Millions, but only Seven
Millions. We believe it was actually less than
Ten Millions, though it seems to be Eighteen.
And, now if Twenty to Thirty Millions of
interest should fall due and be paid off in May
Sas We believe it willy the Debt may seem to
Oe increased during the month, though it be
really diminished.
lhe amount of Currency on hand is reported
at imrty-two Millions, which is no more than
iaiI working balance, considering the magni-
tude OF the Treasury's operations. But the
Coin on hand is all but One Hundred and Seven
Millions; or, if we deduct 80 much as Is hal
ahceu py UOid Certificates of Deposit is fully
Elghty-seven Millions, which we cannot but re-
gard as mOnstr0us abuse and waste. Fifty Mil
lions of that Gold would buy up and cancel at
least Sixty Millions of the princinol ,f ,,,, NJ.

AS tonight division is expected in the
House of Commons on the remainder of Mr..
Gladstones resolves, the Tories last night held
a mass meeting in London in favor of con-
tinuance of the privileges of the Irish Church.
The meeting is said to have been largely at
tended, but also to have been very turbulent.
The Archbishop of Canterbury presided, and
the Lord Mayor of London and the Archbishop
of York moved resolutions. 1t is not often that
the heads of the Established Church in England
take part in demonstrations of this kind, and
their public appearance in behalf of cause
where their own princely incomes may appear
to them to be at stake, is the best proof that
they consider the prospects of disestablishment
to be seriously endangered. Their speeches
are not likely to be of great influence. The
inability of even His Holiness of Rome might
have taught His Grace of Canterbury that the
time is past when the heads of the Church can
control the votes of the Legislators of great
nations. The Protestant legislators of England,
we are sure, will show no less firmness than
their Catholic brethren in Italy and Austria.

The Legislature has done its worst and ad
jOurned The latest and most outrageous job
was the City Tax-Levy. Under pretense Of
disagreement between the two Houses they
managed to doctor it in Committee so as to
add heavily to the total as passed in Assem-
bly,. All the donations for sectarian schools
were restored, and we have for the first time
in the history of the government general levy
upon the whole people for the exclusive benefit of
a particular denomination. Will Gov. FentOn
sign such a bill9 The Legislature did not
wait to learn, but precipitately cleared out,
hoping, no doubt, that, sooner than prejudice
many worthy interests, the Governor would
put his name to the Roman Catholic levy. We
shall see. 1t is too Late this morning, to ex-
anime all the points of interest in the BILL We
may do so hereafter.
