IMPEACHMENT.

Regular dispatches of the 10th to the Western
press say: -,
What the result Of the impeachment trial will
be is mere speculation. Senators still preserve
studied silence as to how they will vote upon
the question. II Is not known that they have
given even private intimations to that ef-
feet The friends and opponents OF conviction
outside of the Senate are alternately depressed
and eIated Bets continue to be made. lmpeach-
merit is the general theme.
The Cincinnati Commercial Of the llth says:
Our Washington dispatches intimate that IN the
form prepared by the chief justice for taking the
sense of the Senate upon the articles OF impesch-
ment, two questions are prescribed for each arti-
Gle: "Is Andrew johnson guilty OF the charges
contained in this artice?" and "Do those
charges constitute, within the meaning OF the
Constitution, high crimes and misdemesnors! !"
The presidents friends hope that some senators
who will feel compelled TO vote atfirmatively on
the first question, will give the accused the oeneht
of the doubt OF criminal intent, and vote mega
lively on the second. The rumor was received in
Washington late last night, that the chief Justice
has decided TO read a charge TO the empeachment
court before the vote the articles is taken. II
this is objected to, it is claimed majority OF the
senators will sustain the right OF the presiding
officer to take that course.
