ANDREW HUNTER Skins a YANKEE.--A AT
Winchester, the other day, o Mr.. Ella made
a speech in favoro the negro Constitution.
The Times says that Mr.. Hunter was call
ed on. Taking up the educational subject
treated by Mr.. Ella, he gave IA graphic
sketch Of the New England system, which
brought down the house In thumb of APP
plause. There are few men who can use
the scalpel of sarcasm with such dexterity
as Mr.. Hunter. He traced out this educad
tional system of New England as the foun-
tain-head Of oil the isms which have cursed
the land which have entered the pulpit,
and turned the religion of the meek and
lowly jesus into political enginery, and
corrupted the morals of the North to such
an appalling degree. The speaker then
charged Mr.. Ella with entire ignorance Of
the Federal Constitution, and sustained the
charge by positive proof. He then asked
him if he had read the new Constitution
which he had recommended for adoption.
Ella at first claimed to have read it, but
when pinned down to the point, admitted
that he had merely glanced ct it, and was
ignorant of its provisions! Here Mr..
Hunter poured hot shot into Radical impu-
dencesin coming as missionaries amongst
us to advise upon subjects upon which they
were profoundly ignorant, if indeed they
could be profound in any sense of the term.
His excoriation was unmercifnl, and laid
bare the malignity and ignorance of our
wpuld-be instructors. NJ

srN.TioRs RESoEE THE MANAGERS.

SENATORS BEFORE THE AANAeEsss.t2
WASHINGTON, May 2l.-Sendte The
President transmitted the Constitutions OF
North Carolina, Louisiana, and Georgia.
They were referred to the Committee on the
Judiciary. -. =
Mr.. Davis, of Kentucky, introduced o
preamble and resolution appointing COM
n,ittee of three to investigate the attempts
TO influence and intimidate senator's.
Mr.. Henderson, Of Missouri, made per-
sonsl explanation, stating that he had been
requested to appear before the Managers,
and desired the sense Of the Senate on his
duty in the matter. e
long desultory discussion ensues, the
Radicals maintaining that the object OF the
Managers was to elicit facts 70 support an
additional article, the graUasnen OF which
was the Presidents attempts 70 corrupt
senators, and to this end it was proper that
Henderson shouid testify. The Democrats
maintained that the proceedings we're no.
thing less than prosecution Of senators
and III this sense Henderson would rightly
refuge b appear before them.
ithout action, the Senate adjourned til
Monday, q

IapEAcHMENT.-The Managers are said
to be much at fault what course to pursue
in respect to impeachment. 1t is said that
General Butler is of opinion that the best
course is TO take the vote on Tuesday, as
fixed by the present order of the Senate,
with view to separate the impeachment
sheep from the non-impeachment goats.
Others advocate a postponement, so as to
hold the sword over the Presidents head
with view to cosrce his action and others
still propose new or twelfth article, on
which they will have to vote the carpet-bag
senator's from the South, about to be brought
in under Mr.. .Trumbull's auspices. Some
of the Radicals affirm and protest that I'M
parchment is not dead, but only sleepeth
until Tuesday next, when the second arti-
Gle, say they, is sure to be carried. But
the almost unanimous opinion is that Inn
parchment has utterly failed, and this
opinion was more strongly entertained yes
terday than on any previous occasion. This
idea has induced many to drop Mr.. Wade,
upon the popular theoryiof assisting q man
in his progress down hill. The opinion of
good judges is that the future policy of the
impcachers viii depend largely on the de-
yelopment ut Chicago, where great efforts
are being made to smother, mp the differ
ences in the Republican party .-.NatSondl
