Mr.. johnson has been for the last three or
four days engaged in making preparations for
his trial, almost to the entire exclusion Of other
business. Even his friends say that he Is con-
siderably alarmed at the aspect Of affairs, and
begins at last to realize the fact that deposition
is almost certainty, and expulsion from the
White House inevitable. He Is, II Is asserted,
even now specializing on his future course, and
the rumor among those holding confidential re

moval to stump the States, North, South. East

1t is said that the President and his friends
no longer rely upon the corporation of oonscr-
vativc Republican Senators to bring about an
acquittal since the denial Of forty days time in
which to make preparation for the defence. Mr..
johnson is busily engaged in looking up precc-
dents and making suggestions to his counsel.
For the first time since tho commencement Of
his administration he Is said to look worn out

acquittal now as they were in the Senate on Fri
day. His counsel have been engaged in prepar-
ing affidavits from different sources to be pres

obtain the necessary evidence to proceed without
further delay and hope to make good their fall

that the managers carried their point Friday and
succeeded in obtaining an carly day for fling an

evinced particularly in Buffers speech, has do
morali1ed the administration to no small extent.

sufficient number Of Republicans would Join with

forty days time, but being disappointed he Is in
clined to doubt the final result, as he has never
doubted II before.

ice cars Tuesday afternoon for Boston
AT White River Village, near White Riy-
er Junction, the ice is renewed, and then
the train proceeds to its destination, ar
irving Wednesday-the butter in as good
condition as when it left Vermont. The
charge for shipping is 20 cents per hun
dred from St Adams to Boston, and one
third that price added for ice, making the
entire cost about one cent per pound
There are usually from two to five cars
loaded with butter, leaving St. Adams
