A SNAKE IN THE BED.-The Lafayette.
Ind. Journal says: "An old gentleman.
named Swiger lately put himself up q
shanty on the hill opposite the city on the
other side Of the Wabash. The other
night while lying in bed propped up with
asthma, he accidently put his hand out
side the bed clothes, when it touched some
thing moist and cold.-He instinctively
threw it off upon the floor. His wife arose
and lighted lamp, when she discovered a
snake of the species generally known as
the blue racer in the room. His snake
ship was soon dipatched, and was found
to ne nearly five feet in length. 1t is sup
posed that it got into the room tlroug gh
the chnks in the wall, and was, when dis
covered, looking for warm place to sleep.

On the outside pages Of this issue
will be found a synopsis Of the Presi-

against him by the House Of Repre-
sentatives also the replication Of the
Managers thereto IN full. The trial
was re.opened on Monday by Gen.
Butler in an able argument. The i'm

history Of impeachment in England
precedents as to what constituted high
crimes and misdemcanors and the
charges of the House Of Representa-
tives and the people against Andrew
johnson, were elaborated and dwclt
upon at considerable length and with
great torce. The Tenure OF Office bill
Switch the President has violat ed, re-
ceived the requisite sanction of both
the Senate and House of Representa-
tives after full consideration Of his
objections. If he is to be allowed to
exercise this dangerous power of re-
moval, where is it to end? Does the
constitution invest the President with
all the executive power which is en-
joyed by kings and the rulers Of other
nations ?" None of the early Presi-
dents, said Gen. Butler, had ever at
tempted to exercise the unlimited
power of removal now assumed by the
present occupant of that chair.

ST.. PAUL.-The people Of St. Paul
generally having became disguised with
the shameful Encouragement Of the
Democratic ring which has for so long
controlled the affairs Of that city, called
PEOPLES Meeting on Monday evening,
and placed in nomination the following
ticket:
Aayor-George L. Otis
Justice-E. Z. Lambert.
ComptroAer-John W. Roche
7reasurer-N. Gross.
Ward officers were also nominated.
The meeting was a very stormy one,
and We doubt exceedingly if the move
mcnt viii amount to much. St. Paul
is so entirely under the control Of the
Copperhead element of the Democratic
party that there is but little hope of its
affairs being honestly and economically
managed for some time to come-until
the Republicans gain the ascendency.
The Republicans have since re-
solved to make strict party nominations ;
ard Mr.. Otis has declined the nomina-
ton rendered him.

The President has issued an order
through Gen: Grant, assigning Gen.
Hancock to the command of the mill
tary department of the Atlantic, with
headquarters in Washington: This is
the command so promptly declined by
both Generals Sherman and Thomas.
Its tender now is no honor to Gen.
Hancock, and its acceptance will bring
him no credit.
By a somewhat singular coincidence,
on the same day that the President is
sued the above order, Mr.. Edwards
introduced in the Senate resolution
requesting him to communicate to that
body whether he had established OF
ordered the establishment Of any new
department since the first of August.
1867, and if SO what department or de.
partments, and under what statute and
other authority. Andrew will probably
experience considerable difficulty in
making this explanation to the satisfac.
tion Of anybody but himself and Gen.

DEAR SlR.-I have carefully prepared

railroad "from Taylors Falls ria St. Cloud
to the western boundary Of tho State" and
as will appear by copy Of the. t'!ooe,
which l will send you tomorrow, Mr.. E
B. Washburnc, Of Illinois, twice objected
and prevented its introduction and refer
ence to the Committee on Public Lands.
As unanimous consent was necessary. the
objection made by Mr.. Washburne has de-
layed for the present all action uron the
bill. fear that this delay will throw the
bill forward to q very late period in tho
session.
The introduction and reference of bulls
arc so much ''ma,ter Of COURSE in parlia-
mentary proceedings, that am at . loss to
account for this action Of Mr.. Washburne.
l should regret to think that his coxtinual
opposition to every measure Of public OF
private nature in which appear to DO In
terested, is due to desire to utterly impair
my ability to servo my constituents. can
scarcely think it possible for any reepect'
able gentleman to indulge in such an illiber-
al and ungenerous policy, but the tact. re-
mains that he seems determined to resist in
every way. every measure which deem
important to my constituents. propose
TO do my whole duty in spite of his opposi-
ton. Truly Your Friend.

The above letter, which we copy

be read with much interest in this 10
cality, which was intended to be spe
cially benefited by the bill attempted
to be introduced by Mr.. Donnelly. Th'
persistent determination of Mr.. Wash
burne to cripple the efforts Of the Rep
rcsentative from this District is, to So.
the least, somewhat strange. If he ha
any personal feeling against Mr.. Don
nelly he might choose some way to
manifesting i: that would be less preju
dicial t. the interests Of the people 0
Minnesota. Whatever Mr.. Washburne'
motives may be, his spiteful course to
ward this State cannot be easily owe,
looked or readily forgiven.
Mr.. Donnelly has given, in tn
course indicated in his letter-th
statements of which we have since see,
corroborated 10 the Congressional Glob
additional evidence that he is in no
wise forgetful Of the wants and interest
OF Northern Minnesota.
