IurracHuESr PRocEEDIscs.-on Monday

1NPEAcHNENT PRocEEDINGs.-On Monday
the Senate went into session with closed
doors. to deliberate on the facts and evidence
ELECTED during the trial. A number of Sen
ators spoke upon the question at issue, some
for and others against acquiital. Senator
Sherman declared that he could not vote for
the first article, although his speech indicated
that he would find the President guilty on
the second, fourth and eleventh articles
Stewart took strong ground for conviction on
all the articles, and argued that they had
been sustained by good and sufficient evil
dence. Grimes, of Iowa, made a lengthy
speech, declaring he did not consider the
Secretary of War within the provisions ofth
Tenure of Office Law. He considered that
there was no distinction between the power
OF the President to remove during recess and
his power to remove during the session of the
Senate. an officer who held solely by his
pleasure. Edmunds, author of the Tenure
of Office Act made the next speech. He
said the President was clearly guilty under
the first article, and the only question was
whether his acts constituted high crimes and
misdemeanors. lie thought the Presidents
course in removing Stanton and appointing
Thomas SO grossly illegal as to constitute
high crime. He should therefore vote for
conviction under the first article. Williams.
of Oregon, spoke next, and said he would vote
for the first, second and eighth asticles-
Howe stated that he would support the sec
ond, third and eleventh articles. Pomroy and
Morrill, followed next, indicating that they
would vote for the principal articles. Hen
drick, Doolittle, Davis, Dixon, Johnson and
Buckalew, all Democrats, spoke in opposition
to the articles. Henderson, Trumbull, and
Fessenden spoke at length, taking the ground
that Stanson's case did not come within the
provisions of the Tenure of Office Law, be-
cause the term of his appointment expired
with the man who made the appointment
All three declared against the suficiency Of
the articles. Conness, Wilson, Harlan and
Moreton declared for conviction. After dis
cussion, the Court adjourned until Saturday
to day..
The tenor of the dispatches indicate that
the first article cannot be sustained, while
the result is doubtful on the rest of the arti
ces. Great indignation is expressed against
Trumbull and Fessenden, and the Illinois
and Maine Congressional delegations have
waited on these recreant Senators and de

Alexandra Dumas has discovered O.
new solution for the immense powers
of attraction he has long possessed.
The veteran romancist does not at
tribute his popularity to his talent,
but to the amount of magnetic fluid
with which he is endowed. He has
written q letter about his sympathetic
reception by the distinguished people
of Havre, in which he says: 'sI am
more touched than surprised by this
sympathy which comes to me volun-
tarily, and gives me special impor-
tance in my own estimation, mas
much as it neither proceeds from
what I have written, or ever shall
write, but simply from the magnetic
reciprocity which I feel and which
inspire. The occult and mysterious
phase of this sentiment, makes it
very difficult for me adequately to ex-
press the gratitude with which it in
spires me. However this may be,
Havre is the city wherein 1 have
always experienced and given out the
greatest amount of this tender and
.fraternal affection"

The SoUTH WANTS ALL HER Sons.
THE following truthful words are
taken from the Banner. Of the South,
edited by Father Ryan, and printed
in Augusta. Read it, all ye who con-
template leaving your homes, and
weigh every word well. It speaks
volumes, and should reach the heart
of every true Southron who loves his
country:
cit has been stated that John G.
Breckinridge intends to return to
this country at an early day. Under
the recent amnesty proclamation of
President Johnson, and even under
the statute laws of the United States,
no indictment for treason can now be
had against those who participated
in. the revolution for Confederate in
dependence. The time for fling
such an Indictment has passed, by
Limitation of the law, and even if Il
had not. the Presidents pardon
applies efficaciously to all who we're
concerned in that revolution, except
ing only such as are now under in
dlctment or conviction.
''Mr. Breckenridge, then, and Mr..
Benjaman, and all the other exiles
who expatriated themselves at the
close of the war. can now return in
safety to the Union. And they
should do so. The South wants
them. She wants all her sons now;
and she appeals to those who are here
to stay with her, and to those who
are absent to como back. A great
struggle is at hand, in which her
rights and her liberties are involved
and not only hers, but the entire
nations. She calls upon all, then,
who love her, to come to the rescue,
and join hearts and hands with those
true men of the North who are bat
ting for the Constitution and true
Republican government. Upon
their success depends the preserva-
tion of the American Union, on the
principles upon which it was found
ed; and every vote for those princi.
pies is O step to the achievement OF
that success. Come home, then, We
absent sons of the South, and give
your aid and your work to the cause
of your native land"

A Great Spring and Summer
INVIGORATOR AND RESTORER

NOW IS THE TIME TO CLEANSE OUT
In those rERILOUS SPOTS, Pimples,
corrupt sores. which POLLUTE the LIFE
of the BLOOD, and render your body q
loathesome thing. They are the precur-
eors of diseased blood, and will assume
much more formidable shape if allowed
to go on unchecked. The QUEENS DE-
has ever been invented, as thousands will
to-day attest, is offered to the afflicted as
q positive remedy for all diseases flowing
from vitiated condition of the system.
THE LIFE OF THE FLESH is PURE
BLOOD. Upon this theory alone the in
the great hygienie law, WITHoUT PURE
BLOOD NO FLESH rs FREE FROM DIS
EASE. The Pale and Shrunken Forms,
Yellow Faces. Weak Stomachs, Diseased
Livers, Crippled Rheumatics, Nervous
Hypochondriacs, Dyspeptio Victims of
Headache, 80 common in this country, is
owing entirely to the hGmors Of the blood.
Very many other diseases may be traced to
bad blood, Scrofula or Kings Evil, Erysi-
pelas, Exauthema or Elevure, q rash or
eruption on females; Blotches, Tetter,
Goitre or Swelled Neck, Syphilis and Sy-
philitic Sores, Strumous Ulcers, &c.
These cannot be cured without purifying
the blood. Now as to the remedy. There
is no other blood purifier that will accom-
plish such positive and extraordinary cures
as Heinitsh's Queens Delight. You may
take barrel of extract Sarsaparilla, and
still you will not be cured; and, as proof
Of it, look around and You will observe the
country, throughout, its length and
breadth, is flooded with compound sarsa-
parillas, extracts and syrups, claiming to
be blood purifiers, and yet we see to-day
more evidence of impurity of the blood
than ever. Why is this? Simply because
these extracts and Sarsaparillas are worth
less medicines.
The Queens Delight is new compound,
toned by the profession, patronized by the
highest dignitaries of the land, endorsed
by everybody.
In the brief period of twelve months,
over 8, 1000 cases have been treated 80 sue.

That the public lands should be distri-
buted as widely as possible among the
people, and should be disposed of either
under the presumption of homestead lands,
and sold in reasonable quantities, and to
none but actual occupants, at the mini
mum price established by the Government.
When grants of the public lands may be
allowed, necessary for the encouragement
Of important public improvements, the
proceeds of the sale of such lands, and not
the lands themselves, should be so ap-

That the President of the United States,
Andrew johnson, in exercising the power
Of his high Office in resisting the aggres-
sions of Congress upon the constitutional
rights of the States and the people, is en-
titled to the gratitude Of the whole Ameri
can people, and in behalf of the Democra-
tic party, we tender him our thanks for his
patriotic efforts in that regard.
Upon this platform, the Democratic
party appeal to every patriot, including all
the conservative element and all who de-
sire to support the Constitution and re-
store the Union, forgetting all past differ
ences of opinion, to unite with us in the
present great struggle for the liberties of
the people; and that to all such, to what
ever party they may have heretofore be-
longed, we extend the right hand of fell
lowship, and hail ell such cooperating
with us as friends and brethren. ~
