place yesterday, a short distance below
California. at the mouth Of Crawlish, and
about seven miles up the river. .ot
The ill-fated boat was the Magnolia one
of the regular Cincinnati and Maysvil,e
packets, and the most popular boat upon
the line. She left her dock at the usual
hour, IL III. with as is estimated, fully
100 passengers on board, and in about an
hour afterwards the explosion took place

where the catastrophe occurred, and on
the Kentucky shore, was at work in his
garden, and Immediately, with Mr. Abel,
who was formerly connected with the Ma
tional theatre, put off in skiff to the res
cue of the unfortunates on board. They
state that after the explosion the boat
went some distance ahead, aud he pulled
mile before the flames burst forth, so that
he estimates the interval at nearly ten
minutes When he arrived near the
wreck, a most fearful sight presented it.

The heat was SO intense that it was i'm
possible for the skifs to approach near

INPEACH.NENT.

On Monday the high court of impeach-
ment again convened, and the president
appeared by counsel and put in his answer
to the several articles presented against
him, and asked for thirty days further
time. The court granted him until next
Monday, when the trial will positively
proceed. The following is brief synop-
sis of the presidents reply, from the
Chicago Times, of the 9th:
The presidents answer to the first arti-
Gle consists of long legal argument
against the tenure-of-oflice bill, and in ia
vor Of the presidents right to remove his
cabinet officers at pleasure. lie confesses
to having issued an order last February
for the removal of Stanton a second time,
and to having appointed Lorenzo Thomas
as secretary or war. He denies that the
order for the removal of Stanton was in
violation of the constitution of the Uni
ted States, or any laws thereof, or of his
oath OF Office. 81 --s4.r...i
In the answer to the second article of
impeachment lie denies all the charges in
this article. At the same time he issued
the order for the appointment of Lorenzo
Thomas, there was vacancy in the war
Office. .. slf =, f.,,..., -.e 49,.
For answer to The third article, the re-
spondent denies thath he made any appoint
ment to the war cfice, but simply author
lied Gen. Thomas to act I'D interim, $,
For answer to the fourth article, he de-
MES having conspired with Gen. ThoLlas
or any other person to prevent Stanton
from holding the Office of secretary of
war. lie further denies having author
lied any force to be used in removing
Stanton. He dwells on this at length,
and excerpts to all the allegations made.
For answer to the fifth article, the re-
spondent denies having hindered the ex-
ecution of the tenure-of- oflice act, either
in the city of Washington or elsewhere
AS in reply to the fourth article he de-
mics the suficioncy of tho sharsc.
The Plymouth weekly Democrat. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1860-1869, 1868-03-26

In answer to the sixth article, the re-
spoudent denies that he attempted to pos
sess. himself of any property of the Uni
ted Ststes. 81
\ For answer 20 the seventh article be
denies all the charges made therein and
states that the allegations. are insufficient.
For answer to the ei4sth article he de-
nies all intention OF violence, and says he
simply wanted to get the matter before
the courts.
- n answer to The ninth article, he pro-
ceeds to detail the interview between him
self and Gen. Emory. He denies having
requested Gen. Emory or any other officer
to violate or disobey suy law Or any rule
for the regulation of the army. He de-
MES having said or done any thing at any
interview with Gen Emory which can be
constructed as a high crime and misde-
meaDor. Lse - .s-oFE4q g
The 10th article starts out with an al,u-
sion to the Phiadel phia Johnson conven.
ton, and the president goes ON to say that
the convention adopted a declaration 81
prin cipes and appointed a delegation to
wait upon the president, and present said
declaration. lie then goes On to detail
the interview which took place in the
white house between himself and the DEL
eSation. He says his speech on that oc-
casion was incorrectly reported, and that
the extracts quoted in the articles in ques-
ton by the house of representatives are
not parts of his speech. He makes the
same statement with regard to his Cleve-
land speech lie also denies the correct
ness of passages quoted in the article
from his St Louis speech. In further an
swer to this article. he protests that he
has not been unmindful Of the high du-
ties of his Office. lie denies having en-
deavored to bring congress into contempt,
and asserts that, during his official career
he always acknowledged the authority and
legality of congress.
The remainder of the answer consists
Of an elaborate defence Of his severa
speeches.

honors. We quote the concluding portion
of a eulogy written on Mr.. Lutz, by a
friend:
"John C. Lutz was remarkable man
of the age in which he lived. He was by
nature kind. generous and congenial. He
had an utter contempt for all that was sell
fish or dcceitful could not hold in high
esteem those whom he regarded as unpriu-
c;pled, or those actuated and controlled by
seif-interest. Though he had limited
education, yet his intellect was expansive

and honest heart-a true, ardent, and de-
voted friend. He has been suffering se-
verely for months, and it was thought that

ever gone. 1.-The strong staff is broken,

grace and bloom" lie leaves devoted

Softly and sweetly from passing cloud,
Death fell upon him."
