BUTLER's ARGUMENT.
Gen. Butler will cUpy three or four hours
in the opening argument on impeachment
RUMoR ABOUT THE CHIEF JUSTICE.
1t is stated that judge Chase, upon refec-
ton and full examination of he Constitu
ton and the discussion on its formation and
adoption, has concluded that his functions as
presiding officer of the Senate when trvino
the President on impeachment. are of the na-
ture OF judge presiding upon the bench. and
that therefore ii is his province to decide olI
legal questions that may be raised, by either
tne prosecution or the accused, during the tri-
a.: 1t is stated that this matter has been con-
S .n,n ana discussed informally by the Su-
preme Court Judges, who coincide with the

Exit the Blair Family-Enter the Wash
burn Family.

Great families are great facts in all
national history, and the family as an
institution is so universally found and
respected in nations having any civil
ixation whatever, that we must accept it
as the natural unit OF social organization.
Roman history is especially noted as
having grown around the namss Of few
great families; and if we would sam up
the earlier glories Of the republic, We
shall fnd that its wealth Was lees in its
record Of great achievements than in the
roll Of its illustrious gems. The true
spleudors Of that history were the furii,
iron whom Camillus camel, the Cor
nelii, the Emilii, the Fabii, the Julii, the
Horaiii-names that in the great story
Of the past rank even almost with the
name OF Rome itself 10 such esteem
did the Romans themselves hold their
great gems that they have stamped in
delibly upon the speech We Inherit from
them, that IL is q reproach TO be fellow
Of none Of the families; to be non gene
rosus is 70 be without much Of the better
grace Of life, and the possession OF fair
claim 10 geniihty compensates the mass
Of men for even the want Of more Eub-
stsstisi possessions.

The Vagabond Sage.


An old man of very active physiog-
uomy, answering to the name of David
Wilmot, was brought before the police
court. His clothes looked as though
they might have been bought second
handed in his youthful prime, for they
had suffered more from the rubs of the
world than the proprietor himself.
"What business2"
None; I'm traveller"
"a vagabond, perhaps p
"You are not far wrong. Travellers
and vagabonds are about the same thing.
The difference is that the latter travel
without money, the former without
brains"
"Where have you traveledf'

"Humph what did you commendP'
"a handsome woman who will stay at

not write too much; and fool that has
sense enough to hold his tongue"
"Whst do you censure2'
"a man that marries girl for her fne
clothing; youth that studies medicine
while be has the use of his hands; and
the people who will elect a drunkard to

Our own history shows q growth not
dissimilar tn that Of the early Roman
republic, and we see in it also the prom
inent splendor Of some great names. We
all know what power the Adams family
was in the story Of the Revolution, and
we see its high tendency in the education
of its sons to the science of government
running through many generations.
Another part Of the country cannot write
its history without the name of Lee on
every page. Our own State has richer
roll Of these names than any other, and
its story could be amply written in the
biographies Of members of such illustri-
ous gems as the Stuyvesants, Van Rens-
selaers, Schuylers, Hamiltons, Morrises
and Livingstons. In the roll of these
names of great American families there
is also, not to say it cautiously, the Blair
family. (Ex-President Fillmore regards
Old Blair as " the greatest man that God
Almighty ever made This illustrious
family was once held in greater esteem
than it is now; but decay of influence is
q possible fate of all families, and is no
dishonor to the family, but only to the
age that fails to appreciate it Men who
know our history will not regard the
Blairs the less that one of them got fewer
votes for an Insignificant Office than
somebody else; for they will know that
this single family has carried on the
government since the days IF General
jackson. We never had any earthquakes
in San Francisco in those days.
d. :. Il "a i
velopment of nations that every now and
then new families come up. Often a
great mau establishes gems, as Camil.
lus, who was Furius, was afterwards
counted the first of the Camili. 10
many cases foolish people call these men
parUenus, upstarts and nobodies; but
wiser people see the future in them. The
Romans called them mobiles, because of
their novelty or newness, and this is the
queer etymology of nobility; so that for
family to be very noble it must be very
new, which ought to be great comfort
to those happy people who cannot tell
the names of their grandfathers. In our
history one of the most ilustrious of the
new gems is the Washburn family, which
will be known in the future better than
even Ignatius Donnelly knows it now.
We expect a great deal from this family,
because it is so large. 1t went irst from
Down East, which is the best section Of
the country to migrate from, and settled
out West in soil that gives vigorous
growth. There is at present On Eiihu
Washburn, an Elias Wasbburn, an Elijah
Washburn, an Z ishs Washburn, with
Abijahs, Nehemiahs, Hezekiahs and
Obadiahs too numerous to name. They
are all in Congress just now, except a
few that are in foreign missions; but
Congress is, after all, not q place to
thrive in, so that We expect to see five or
six of them in the Cabinet in short
time and the rest in the next best places.

We oft shall see him more,
lie did not fear the rabid clan,
Nor quail at their uproar.
His heart is open as the day;
His feelings all are true,
Although he didn't vote the way
Ben Butler wished him TO.
For when he heard the "uncorked, spout,
Disgust within him burned;
Old Grimes knew what he was about,
And from such counsel turned.
Kind words he had for all,
But nary vote for Wade;
Fearless he stood In Senate hall
Old Grimes was not afraid.
He lives in peace with all mankind;
To justice he is true,
And they who threaten Grimes will ind
That threats with him won't do.
Unframed the rage which Thaddeus rent.
he passed securely DER;
Old Grimes stands brayely in his boots
Upon the Senate floor.
The good old man has stood the test,
And wears the just mans crown:
The how ling RAIDS may let him rest,
They'll never pull him down.
At ease the I'D man, smiling, sits,
Without fear or doubt:
He gave the "11th high crime" the fits
That played impeachment out.
