concluded on Monday last, and the High
Court Of Impeachment adjourned over till
Wednesday, in o,dcr 10 give counsel time

Mr.. boutwell,, on the side Of the Managers,

expected that the hearts of the Inval mil.
lions of this land will in the course of q

announcement Of the sentence condcmning
Andrew johnson for high crimes and msde
meanors.
The land has groaned under the misrule
OF the great apostate in the Presidential
chair, till it is wellnigh overwhelmed. =
Every business interest feels the dire effects
springing from The war he has been waginp
IN the interest OF treason. in his desperation
to boost himself into the Presidential chair
for a second term. Under his wicked and
calamitous administration, the fiendish spirit
OF rebellion has filled the South with murder
and anarchy, establishing a reign Of terror
worse than that which existed in the dark
days Of the rebellion. In less than one
week more, we hope the White House will
be relieved Of the most despicable tyrant of
the nineteenth century, and the greatest
humiliation, and positive injury that ever
afflicted this nation. May such another dis
grace and curse to our material interests, as
well as our good name, never again be in
liicted upon us as n people.
