lighting while it was in, progress-and
Mr.. JOHNSON is beginning to learn
this fact
The people of the loyal States may
see, from the actions of these gallant
soldiers, the true position of affairs.
They may discover that the men who
crushed the rebellion, regard Mr..
JoHNsoN's hostility TO Congress as in
the interest of the rebels. Clearly it
is 50. Mr.. JOHNSON can have no
other motive in his contest with Con-
gress than the restoration of the rebel
States to their former ascendancy in
the government, and through them
restore she Democratic party TO power.
He has avowed this as his intention.
To accomplish this he is willing to
keep the country in a ferment and
paralyze business, causing distress
and suffering among the poorer classes
to a terrible extent Impeachment
seems to be the only source of relief
left to the country.

WAsHINGToN, Feb. 23.-The city
continues in a state of feverish ex-
citement, owing to the pending i'm
parchment of the President, and
everybody who takes an interest in
public affairs is anxiously awaiting
new developments.
The Executive Mansion was visited
in the course of the day by Secretary
Seward, Adjutant General Thomas,
and a number of Democratic mem
bers of Congress and Republican
Senators and Representatives lnclud-
ing Messrs. Conklin, Chandler,
Thayer, Wade, Morgan, Logan and
Boutwell,, who afterward repaired to
the War Office. 1t is reliably ascer-
tanned that the conversation between
them and the Secretary, being on the
pending political topics, led them to
a comparison of notes. which
left no doubt in their minds
that on the impeachment question
the Republican Senators will act as
unit. 1t was not known to them that
even one member would falter and
desert his party, and their general i'm
preston was that the President will
not only be impeached, but tried,
convicted and removed from Office,
within the next ten days. The ground
they take is that the Representative
can not now avoid the issues which
they say the President has forced
upon them, aud that having taken
tie first step they must prosecute the
work to a speedy conclusion. No
thing was said about the employment
of troops by the opponents Of the
President. None present could an
ticipate any event which would rem
der it necessary, especially as they
thought the President could not OBJ
tain military force to sustain him.
Secretary Stanton has not left the
War Department since last Friday,
his Confessional friends having urged
him to remain there for a reason. He,
however, contempiates going home
after the House shall have impeached

Major General Emroy, who com
mands the Department OF Washing
ton, it is said by the Republicans,
will subject himself only to the i'm
mediate orders Of the General Of the
Army aud not to those Of the Pfesi-
dent.
The guard at the War Department
has been doubled. Colonel Carr, Of
General Emory's staff, remained there
last night by order of General Grant.
The President is in receipt of let
tiers and kilograms giving him assur-
ance Of appreciation and support, and
the Republicans are constantly being
encouraged in a similar manner to
unfalteringly execute the work they
have undertaken.

lac situation at WashIngtOn.

.
We give IN our dispatches this
morning the latest news received by
telegraph and mail regarding the
Presidential usurpation. The Repre-
sentatives of the people have had the
courage to vindicate the laws and au-
thority Of Congress by the adoption
Of a resolution for the impeachment
of the Acting president, by an over,
whelming majority. Pending, the
trial, which viii take place before the
Senate of the United States, the stu
alton is by no means as alarming as
the excited fears of the timid may con-
jecture. Gen. GRANT with the army
at his command, will do nor suffer no
thing to be done to thwart the action
Of Congress. JOHNSON is reported as
saying that he only proposes to resort
to the Courts. He has even sufi
GENTLY cooled of as to enter upon
lengthy argument to the Senate In
defense Of his course. Though he is
a bold, bad man, he will hardly, we
think, attempt to precipitate the
country into civil war. If he makes
the attempt, Congress, the Army and
the loyal people of the country will
make the conflict a short one.

WASHINGTON, February 22-About
half-past ten this morning, General
Lorenzo Thomas, having just been re-
leased on bail by Judge Carter, pre-
sented himself at the War Depart
ment and told Mr.. Stanton he would
like to see him.
Mr.. Stanton told him to proceed
with anything he had to say.
Mr.. Thomas remarked he had come
to discharge the duties of Secretary
Of War, ad interim, having been or
dered to do so by the President Of the
United States.
Mr.. Stanton replied that he could
do no such thing, and ordered him
to his room TO perform the duties Of
Adjutant-General.
General Thomas replied that he
had been ordered by the President to
act as Secretary of War adj interim,
and he intended to do it.
Mr.. Stanton again replied that he
should not, and again ordered him to
his own room, and denied the power
of the President to make any such or

General Thomas said he would not

The Democratic Legislature Of
Kentucky backed down from it's prop
osition to investigate the conduct Of
Federal officers during the war. Ii
seems the Democratic Central Com
mittee at Washington has become
alarmed at the progress being
made by the Kentucky Democracy,
and has shat down the brakes.
The Legislature was disposed, at
first, to resent the interference, but
was brought to. terms by the intima-
ton that the Kentucky Democracy
might be left out in the cold at the
National Convention. This hint had
a happy effect. The thunder which
had been reverberating through the
State, died away into low mutterings.
The loyal men are anxious to know
why the Legislature does not proceed
with its investigations. They object to
the smothering up process by which
the characters of good men and pa
triots are slanderously assailed, and
they denied a hearing-the case being
withdrawn from the regular docket Of
Legislative proceedings.

CONGRESSIONAL SUMMARY.

SENATE, Feb. 2i.-On motion OF Ed
wards, the Senate took up the bin to regu-
late the presentation of bills 10 the Presi-
dent and the return thereof. ......... Drake
suggested that the bill was deficient in al
lowing some person outside of Congress,
to-wit: the Secretary of State, to ascertain
and declare when bill has become a
law........The Senate .theR, ON motion of
DOolittle, postponed all other orders and
took up the supplementary reconstruction
bill. The question was on a motion
TO refer 1t TO tAe Judiciary Com
mittee, with certain instructions.
AT so Colonel Moore presented several
messages in writing from the President
and announced that the joint resolution
passed on February IL, authorizing the
Secretary of War to employ counsel to de-
fend certain Generals who were engaged
in the execution of the Reconstruction
laws. had become law. as nothing had
been returned at the time fixed by law.
HoUsE-The House re-assemb led at 10
o'clock and resumed the consideration of
the Impeachment resolution, the interval
be ween this hour and noon, being tech
nicaIly regarded as belonging TO
the session of Saturday. The desks
of the members were very sparsely
occupied at the opening proceedings.
but every seat in the galleries, save some
in the diplomatic gallery, was filled .......

in favor of impeachment, the hour of u
arrived, when the session OF Saturday
terminated, and the regular session of

few minutes time to Washburne to con-
clude his remarks, because OF ISLANDERS ut

ONE Of the hardest blows received
by Mr. JOHNSON, in his attempt to
usurp the powers legitimately belong
ing to Congress, was administered by
Gen. SHERMAN. His refusal to be-
come tool of the President deranged
the plans of the latter to such an ex-
tent that he has difficulty in re-arrang-
ing them. The Washington cor
respondent of the Cincinnati Enqiarer,
who is understood to be a clerical
attache of Mr.. JOHNSON, telegraphe d
to that paper as follows:
Gen. Sherman's movements will
likely prove embarrassing to the
President and create considerable ex-
element when the facts are known
The President has evidently been
striking in the dark in this matter, as
a telegram received to-day from Gen.
Sherman, now In st. Louis, by his
brother, the Senator, shows anything
else than an appreciation of the high
compliment paid him. The General
condemns the nomination as one
which should never have been made,
and, being made, should not be con
irmed
He does not stop there. His iRdig
nation reaches such pitch that he
telegraphs his brother his determine
ton to resign at once. Senator Sher-
man replied to the General, begging
him not to resign, and sent a note to
the military committee, requesting, in
the name of the General, that the
nomination be not confirmed.
We can't see why Mr.. JOHNSON ex-
pected Gen. SHERMAN to do other
wise than he did. He had no reason
to believe that gallant officer who
had done SO much to destroy the
Southern Confederacy, would willing
ly do anything to restore it to power
and influence. Work of that kind
ought to deyolye upon soldiers of the

The Louisville Courier regrets to
witness the continued bad feeling ex-
listing in Indiana, growing out Of the
recommendation of PENDLETON by
the Democratic State Convention. 1t
also regrets to learn that there is
much bitter feeling manifested in the
discussion of the question in Illinois.
1t especially regrets the declination Of
Judge CATION, Of the nomination for
Governor, en- the ground that the
nomination of PENDLETON will ruin
the party.
The Courier thinks the Democracy
of Indiana and Illinois cannot afford
to indulge in such folly. II thinks
the party will have hard work
to succeed by hearty and united ae-
ton, and the folly of becoming parti-
sans of particular candidates is abso-
lutely ruinous. The New Albany
Ledger echoes this opinion of the
Courier. and hopes the Kentucky
Democracy, at their State Conven-
ton, will avoid the mistake of com
hitting their delegation to the
National Convention to the sup
port of any particular individual.
The Ledger is very decidedly Of the
opinion that the question is not
so much whom we t0iU elect, but
whom we can elect.
So, from these facts, we learn that
the Courier and Ledger are not so
confident, with regard to the great
reaction last year, as they pretended
at the time. They still recognize the
Republican party as a power in the
land. In this they act wisely. But
is the Courier any less, or the Ledger
any more, in favor of PENDLEToN
than heretofore?
