There is yet time for Congress to make
new tax-bill which shall furnish sufficient
revenue to pay at least the current expenses
of the government and there is opportunity
enough to cut down Appropriations and re-
duce the expenses of the government. saving
in that way many millions. But it is by no
means certain that we shall see any hopeful
legislation of this sort. Financially Congress
seems to be at work for individual and not
national interests to give A chance at a
contract, and pay BIS claim, and raise C's.
salary, and take the tax off of Els manufac-
lures. and SO on through the alphabet of pri-
vate interests, while national finances are left
to take care of themselves. Let the people
watch Congress in this matter, and not let
the dust that is raised about reconstruction
blind their eyes to the ruinous course of
Congress on financial questions.

was no further appeal from the decision of
the courts. The last ray of hope had van
ished, and the prisoner set about preparing
himself to meet his Maker, in which. let US
hope, he so well succeeded as to find rest
ing place for his spirit with the elect OF
Heaven.
He left his cell, accompanied by officers on
either side. and attended by Rev. Mr.. Butler,
chaplain of the State Prison, at l:3O o'clock,
and proceeded with firm, elastic step, to
the platform of the scaffold. His appearance
indicated not hardened criminal, uncon-
scious and needless of the fate before him.
but man who fully comprehended his situ-
alton in the eyes of the Redeemer and the
public, and, though he regretted his course,
was prepared to atone therefor.
Having assembled the gallows, prayers
were offered by Rev. Franklin Butler, and
the death warrant read by Deputy Sheriff s.
w. Simpson, after which the prisoner was
asked if he had anything which he wished to
saw. when he stepped TO the front Of the
platform, and said, in clear, though
trembling voice:
.s As am about to appear before God, |
wish to state to you here assembled that l
have made full confession to Mr.. Butler,
and what he has is true in every respect.
As to the affair at Williston, | have TO say

murder, then l am a murderer.
He then bowed, and said he desired to say
no more, though he was yisibly affected, and
apparently did not communicate all he had
intended to. The officers then pinioned has
arms, hands and legs, and Sheriff Simpson
adjusted the moose about his neck, fixing the
knot under the back of the left ear, which
being done, the prisoner called the chaplain
of the prison, Rev. Mr.. Butler, and took an
affectionate farewell Of him, as he did also
of Detective n. B. Flanagan, who arrested
him, Mr.. Pollard. prison Superintendent, the
Sheriff. and the wardens and other attaches

black cap upon his head, and said, g Now

form upon which the prisoner was standing
gave way beneath him, a dull thud was heard
and John Ward was suspended between
Heaven and earth. his soul launched into
eternity.
The prisoner dropped about five feet, and
his neck was disocated by the fall. He died
apparently easy, few convulsive twitchlngs
OF the muscles only being visible. His pulse
beat regularly for five minutes, after which
it became weaker and weaker, until, at the
end of twelve minutes, it was no longer per
ceptible. After hanging about thirty min

IMPEACHMENT.

T.
M. ditOr,-There have been MANY vague
rumors flying round of threatened outbreaks
here, but hardly as quiet and busy week
has been passed for long while. There has
been no excitement, and, while we remain an
statu qlo in regard to impeachment, we have
to be content with the common run of LEXIS
lative business, and fill up the vacancy by
conjecture, more or less founded on fact. as
the case may be.
The Presidents plea comes in on Monday.
and, so far from any ones knowing certainly
as to its character, it is very much doubted
if the Presidents counsel are not SO divided
as to be unable to decide what is the proper
course to pursue. In fact, they see no es
cape from conviction, and the only question
now left is, how to delay the action of the
Senate without appearing to do So 1t is
confidently asserted that Judge Black has be-
come so thoroughly Disguised with the whole
affair. that he not only declares the defence
TO be of no use, but in SO many words has
told johnson so, and advised his resignation.
In this advice most of the counsel join. If
in this case we could judge from johnson Is
&c neral conduct, we should reject the idea as
not worth a thought but here we find him

The House Committee ON Foreign Affairs
has postponed the consideration OF bill to
pay for the purchase of Alaska till MAY,
which is rendered significant from the fact
that payment was, by the terms of the treaty,
to have been made next month Such action
is not calculated to do any good, for if the
House desire to break the treaty let them say
so boldly. But all such side hits only serve
to weaken the faith of foreigners in our re-
liability, and tho country can no better a ford

The Time of the Deliverance of
Ireland.

We are happy in being able to put an end
to the suspense of Fenians, as well as the
anxiety of those who hold Fenian bonds, by
announcing positively that the deliverance
of Ireland has been fixed by figures, which
we all know never lie,-for the year 1869.
This tremendous fact has been made known
to us through the following highly important
communica ton.
North Yam Hill, Yam Hill Co.,
Oregon, Feb. 3, 1868.
Mr.. Editor,-The follow ing infdel calcula-
tions of the French sages, confirming the
overthrow of the Emperor Louis Napoleon in
1869. is subservient to and swallowed up by
the scriptural calculations beginning B. G.

lands deliverence from the yoke of England
which deliverance no earthly power OF
powers can prevent those who attempt tC

its completion. British gold-now at WORK
against Gods intended purpose-may have
purchased DR.. Cummins' prediction, but The
wealth of all the worlds within the vast i'm
mensity of unbounded space, can neither
purchase nor reverse this prophecy.

munication we learn that the prophet who'll
name is James Jamison Sheasgreen. Abou
half an acre of figures accompany and prov
the above prophecy. We have only space II

resignation; knowing that that alone can
save his right to hold Office hereafter, which
we all know would be the last thing for him
to be willing to lose having nothing to in
duce him to hold position so open to the
attacks of people who hate him; and to all
this, joined a consciousness that, presuming
too much on his own strength, he has broken
the laws, in which he is entirely unsupported
by the people. In view of all these circum-

The live stock of the United States, ac-
cording to the recent report of the Agri-
cultural Bureau at Washington, has dimin-
ished to an extraordinary extent since
1860 In these reports it is stated that
the number of mich cows in the country
is now smaller by five per cent. than it
was in 1860; the number of working cat
tie is less by thirty per cent; the decrease
in asses and mules is twenty weight per
cent; in horses seventeen per cent; In
swine nearly twenty-five per cent. This
Elimination is not very perceptible to the
inhabitants Of the loyal states, but it
should be remembered that in the course
of the rebellion all the domestic animals
of the cotton states were consumed. When
the war was ended there were literally

Yesterday Mr.. Henry A. Reed who re-

few days ago he came to this city for the
purpose OF drawing out some money which
he had deposited in the dollar Savings
Bank. The bank paid him, not in cash,
but with check on a Fourth street Ma
tional Bank. The amount that said check
called for was eleven hundred dollars.
Instead of getting the check cashed Mr.
Reed carried it home and deposited it fol

An Army of Women.

In letter from Buenos Ayres the
writer in speaking of the Paraguyan war
says that ali information confirms the al
most incredible report of Lopez having
organized an army Of women, and that
they are drilling daily and already serving
in Notifications and foraging parties and
working in preparing ammunition. In

duty In the Paraguayan army amounts to
many thousands, and they can WELD a
lance on horseback, throw the lasso, or
dig ditch as well as the men. This is
