MIDDLETowN, Conn, Feb. 22d, 'GS
DEAR NHAM:-Itis long time since
you have had anything from the nutmeg
State The time for our political canvass
is near at hand, but at present there is but
little excitement; all is quiet. The Dem
ocratic party feel confident and seem to
think it will require but little effort on
their part to carry the State Gov. Eng
usH has given great satisfaction and
many prominent politicians that voted
against him last spring have given out
publicly that they shall vote for him this.
The Republicans have put up candidate
but little known, but who is anxious to be
auspicious he has money that came to
him easy and he is willing to spend it;
they well know their principles will not
sustain them without money they have
not the shadow of chance; their only
arguments used are coppcrheads, cop,
perheads, southern sympathizers, rebels,
sccessionists." Well the people have this
so much and so long and finding they
(thc Republicans have no other peg to
hang their hopes upon, begin to think it
is time to look around and see if it is not
time that something to save the country
should not be done. Their hopes are
based on Grant and have relied upon his
non committal; but Grant in his ungard-
ed hours, which occasionally comes over
him, has been duped by Stanton; he has
shown himself dcceitful and untruthful
Though most of our Republican papers
insist upon it, that in the question Of We
racity between him and President John
son. that he has been honest and truthful.
and that Johnson is guilty of msrepre
scntation, notwithstanding he, in his as
Sertions, is sustained by those ofhis Cab
met whose yeracity cannot be doubted
Grant has lowered himself very much by
his recent acts, and we think here that lie
is not likely to receive the nomination for
the Presidency. New Hampshire will
speak out her sentiments next month.
1t is conceded on all hands if the Repub-
licans carry the State it will be owing to
Grants popularity, for that party in that
State put the issue upon Grant and not
upon their candidate; and their Conven-
ton came out strong for Grant. 1t is
much the same in this State. We are all
looking to the South and watch your
movements there. The Republicans are
dreadful sour about the rejection Of the
proposed Constitution in Alabama. We
. hope it will be the same in all the States.
Republicans look upon your Conventions
as elephants on their hands aud most
heartily wish they were rid of them
Yours, W.

WASHINGTON, Feb 81.

The impeachment committee got leave
Of the House, to-day, TO print, in advance
the articles of impeachment they have
drawn up, and which will be submitted
to o-morrow, so that the House may have
copies for distribution and consideration.
The committee have declined To furnish
any information OF their doings, but
enough has leaked out to show that the
articles of impeachment will be, in effect,
rs follows:
|. Violation of the Constitution and
Tenure OF Office act in removing Mr.
Stanton.
.. Attempt to induce Gen. Grant to
violate said act, as shown by Mr.. John
sons and Gen. Grants correspondence.
3. Alleged obstruction ofthe execution
of the Reconstruction acts, by removing
Commanders Of Military Districts, etc,
etc.
4. The attempt to bribe Gen. Sherman
and Gen. Thomas, by offering them bre-
vet nominations.
A few days ago twas quite certain that
no attempt would be made to suspend the
President while under trial for impeach-
ment. The apprehension that the at
tempt would be made by Congress, and
resisted by the President, has caused
much of the fevcrishness in the public
mind. Now, however, it will not be un-
dcrtakcn to formally suspend the Presi-
dent. 1t is held, in Republican circles,
that from the moment he is formally i'm
peached, his position towards Congress
is that of a prisoner towards judges and
jury, and that they can have no legisla-
tive communication with him while the
trial is in progress.
