feeling that the white head of hair and beard
were a mask put on to conceal young man

off the disguise and appear as a man in the very
prime and bloom of life In few well-rounded
Latin sentences, the public orator recited the
claims of the distinguished visitor to the privil-

Gen. Buffers Report on the Impeach-
ment InvestigatiOn.
WILLIAM Ii. SEWARD,
Secretary Of State

Gen. Buffers last report to the House
from the Impeachment Managers, relative to
the charge that the votes of certain Senators
at the late trial were improperly controlled,
contains little that is new or interesting.
The Managers arrived at the following con-
clusions
The testimony taken and the suddenness with
which the views Of Senators Fowler, Ross and
others were changed convince the committee
that the subject Of influencing votes. both by
money and by executive patronage, was freely
canvassed by the President and his friends and
that some at least of the votes cast for acquit-
tai were improperly controlled.
Coucerning George W. Woolley. the Man
ayers report
Your committee believe that Wooley and his
associates turned their whole attention to pre-
venting the conviction of the President on i'm
peachment. The question has occurred to US
what motiye could he and his Ohio friends have
for their extraordinary exertions in behalf Of
the resident, The commonly received idea
that heir interest in the continuation Of the
corr ptions in the collection of the taxes ON
whiskey, although confessedly a strong motive,
Phardly a sufficient one, and certainly notHle
only one operating on Woolley and his friends.
WoOlley testifes that he came here in the inter-
est Of Mr.. Pendleton to endeavor to make him
the candidate of the Democratic party, and Of
course to elect him to the Presidency. 1t would
be very desirable, therefore, to place the Pres-
dent of the United States, with the immense
patronage Of his Office, under obligations to
friends of Mr.. Pendleton, so that the power Of
the administration might be welded in Mr..
Pendeton's favor. as well in the nomination as
in the election. The President cf the United
States by an extraordinary message to Congress
in commendation of the military administra-
tion Of Gen Hancock in Louisiana, had brought
him forward prominently as candidate for the
Democratic nomination. To wean the Presi-
dent from his preference for Hancock, and bring
him to the support of Mr.. Pendleton by laying
him under obligations to the friends Of Mr.. Pen
dleton, was at once the object and end Of Wool
ley's labors. The fact that the President has
nominated since the acquittal so many of those
engaged with Woolley to prominent offices, at
tests his grateful appreciation of their labors
and recognition of their services Mr. STAN
berry and Mr.. Evarts as Attorney General, Mr.
Smythe as minister to Austria, Lacey as Collec-
tor of Internal Revenue at New Orleans, and
Perry Fuller as Commissioner of Internal Rev.
