port the testimoney takea before them con
/ corning the means used to effect votes on the
/ articles of impeachment during this week.
They say they viii prove conclusirely that had
/ the vote been taken sooner, the president
would certainly have been conyictedj that his
| last vote was never secured until about ten
hours before the vote was taken on the eIey-
enth article, and that some Of his counsel are
seriously compromised by their associations

nomination ofthe Hon. Reverdy johnson, OF
Maryland, to be Envoy Extraordinary and
Minister Plenipotentiary to England, in place
of Mr.. Adams, resigned. 1t is customary to

occasional exceptions Of those relating to
melnbcrs or ex-members of that body, in |
cases where it is intended to show marks Of
Senatorial respect, by advising and con-
senting TO the Presidential appointment. The |
Senate, on this occasion, dispensed with the /

was unanimously confirmed

House, upon the representations that he was /
ready to purge himself of contempt, and drew /
forth a large bundle of manuscript. which /
indicated an hours speech, he wore the air of /
a conqueror; but when Mr.. Covode protested /
against his being heard unti' he was ready |
TO answer the questions yes or no, and charged /
that he stood before the House as periurer
and Ia It's contempt, he quaiied; aud being |
directly in front Of the Clerks desk, where
he could not consult with any one, he soon
indicated his willingness to answer at once.
