Bounty CLAIMS The Paymaster General, in
private circular, states that all the bounty
claims now on file are being settled as fast as
the Second Auditor of the Treasury can fur
nish from the muster rolls now deposited in his
office, tie evidence necessary to determine
their validity. 1t is expected that the whole
number of claims filed, or likely to be filed,
viii be acted on and finally settled in the next
nine months. When claim is allowed, the
check is drawn TO the order of the claimant,
and sent, with bis discharge, TO his attorney,
or to himself, where no attorney has been ap-
pointed, and is payable only upon the endorse
ment by claimant, unless the latter shall, by a
power of attorney executed subsequent to the
date Of the check, authorize his attorney to act
for him. If any check is paid on an improper
endorsement, the Assistant Treasurer of the
United States at New York city, on whom all
checks for additional bounty are drawn, is the
responsible party to whom the psyee must look
for payment

rhe Artleler or Imponchment.

The following are the articles of impeach-
ment which were at first agreed upon by
the house committee. It has since been
decided, however, to add other charges,
embracing fagitious acts committed prior
TO those set forth below. When completed,
the charges will probably contain eight or
nine articles:
ARTICLE l. That Andrew Johnson, presi-
dent of the United States, is guilty of O
high crime and misdemeanor in office, in
that he removed from Office as secretary for
the department of war, Edwin M. Stanton,
while the senate was in session, and with
out its consent.
ART. 2. That said Andrew johnson, presf-
dent of The United States, committed high
crime in this that on the tWenty-first day
of February, 1863, he did, in violation Of
the act concerning the tenure of certain
civil Offices, on the day and year aforesaid,
appoint Lorenzo Thomas secretary of war
Gd Interim, the senate being in session, and
without consent Of the same.
ART. 8. That said Andrew johnson, presi-
dent Of the United States, was guilty of o
high crime, in this that on the twenty-first
of February, 1868, he sOnspired with LO-
LCuLU AhONAo1 anu NAACA6 UuhAONH W tuO
house of representatives, by force, threat,
and intimidation, to prevent Edwin N.
Stanton, secretary of the department of war,
from holding the said office, in violation Of
the act of July 81, 1861, defining copspira-
cies, and of the act regulating the tenure Of
certain civil Offices.
ART. 4. That the said Andrew Johnson,
president, is guilty Of high crimes in Office,
in this: that regardless OF his oath, and in
violation of the constitution, he did, en- the
twenty first of February, 1868, appoint q
secretary of war ad interim, to wit
Lorenzo Thomas, without the consent Of
the senate, no vacancy existing in said
office of secretary for the department Of
war.
ART. s. This article is not definitely de-
termiued, but it is supposed that it will
charge the president with attempting to
induce officers of the army to violate the
articles of war, as authorized by congress
and approved by himself

NOW.

The venerable Past-is past;
'Tis dark, and shines not in the ray:
Twas good, no doubt---itis gone at last
There dawns another day.
Why should we sit where ivies creep,
And shroud ourselves in charnels deep;
Or the worlds yesterdays deplore,
Mid crumbling ruins mossy hoar?
Why should we see with dead mems eyes,
Looking at WAS from morn to night,
When the beauteous Now, the divine To BE,
Woo with their charms our living sight
Why should we hear but echoes dull
When the world of sound so beautiful,
viii give us music of our own?
Why in the darkness should we grope,
When the sun, in heavens resplendent cope,
Shines as bright as ever it shone?

GRANT AND JOHNSON graphic
sketch of 'the situation is copied from the
Atlanta NelO Era:
While Grant is impregnably strong, john
son is fatally weak. Thousands upon thou
sands of Democrats in the Northern and
Western states are now foeking to the
Grant standard. The whole nation moves
for Grant. He is the pivot upon which the
great epoch will turn. It was 80 with
Washington. It is so with Grant. He e
the chief who can say to the troubled
waters. peace, be still, and lead the nation
out Of all its trials to triumph and safety
He alone can give new lease OF Life 70
the republic. He stands to-day the nations
central figure.
