Reconstruction.

The impeachment trial has so overyhadow-
ed all other political events in the country
that but little has been heard of late concern
ing the reconstruction of the late rebel States
under the laws, and the advance that has
been made towards the representation in Con-
gress of the loyal element in these States.
All of the Southern States, with the ex-
ccption of Virginia, Mississippi and Texas,
have held elections on the ratification Of their
new Constitutions Virginia has completed
her Constitution, but no election has been
held on its ratification; while the Mississippi
convention is yet in session.
Texas is far behind her sisters in this
good work, but has held her preliminary
election for delegates to Constitutional Con-
vention, which resulted favorably, and that
body will meet on the LIST Of June The
work of framing Constitution will probably
consume two or three months however 50
that election on its ratification can hardly
take place before fall
The current seems to be setting in the right
direction at last, on this matter. Let us
trust that the time is not far distant when
the whole country shall be represented in the
counsels of the nation.

From Our Washington Correspondent.


MEssRs EDfroRs This evening closes a
week of excitement, anxiety and suspense,
such as Washington, if not the whole country,
has not experienced before for many years.
The action of Che Senate this afternoon has
gone far to substitute certainty for suspense
but the excitement and anxiety will continue
to exercise the public mind until the final dis
position of the impeachment question, if not
till the close of the presidential campaign
Rest is a condition practically unknown to
the American mind, but it is seldom that il
is wrought up to that painfully intense aud
eager condition Of excitement that has char
acterized the past week.
Tuesday being the day designated for TAX
ing the vote on impeachment, at an early hour
an immense throng had congregated in and
about the capitol those holding tickets Of
admission, intent upon securing desirable
seats, and those less fortunate lingering
around the building, hoping, if not to gain
admission, at least to be able to obtain carly
information of what occurred within. lmme-
diately upon the opening of the court, Senator
Chandler, of Mich, announced that his coli
league Senator Howard, Was dangerously i'll,
and could not be present, except at the peril
of his life. but that he insisted upon being
brought to the Senate, if the vote was to be
taken. Thereupon the court adjourned until
Saturday, much to the disappointment Of the
galleries, who thus found the coveted cards OF
admission, which had been obtained with sd
much difficulty, suddenly grow worthless in
their hands

4 New Political Scheme.

For some time past there have been oc-
casionally suggestions that Chief Justice
Chase may be put into the field as a Pres-
dental candidate against General Grant.
Though we have long supposed that Mr..
Chase was ambitious for that Office and indeed
so much so that he would be likely to fall in
to any scheme which but family promised
success, we have not discovered reasonable
signs Of even such scheme, and Of course
have given very little attention to the rumors
FROM Washington In this opinion of the
matter we were recently confirmed by an APP
parcntly authorized denial, in Cincinnati
newspaper, that Judge Chase had any
aspirations for the office Now. however,
there is renewal Of the report, so decided
as to leave no room for doubt We annex q
special dispatch to this effect sent from WASH
ington to the Boston Daily Advertiser, under
date Of May H. Assuming it to be true,
let us speculate little upon the plan The
leaders seem to be men who were prominent
in the National Convention Of Southern

What would He Do!

The Nation discusses in its last issue, at
much length, the probable course johnson
would pursue if acquitted. 1t maintains that
he would interpret it as an Endorsement, di-
rect and unequivocal, of all his usurpations,
especially in connection with reconstruction,
and shape his course accordingly. With a
clear insight into his peculiarities, it says:
" His head is not a strong one, and we can
not conceive of any combination Of circuh2
stances that will be likely to enable him to
put the true construction on his escape, if he
does escape. He has one quality of barba.
rian, and that is total incapacity to under.
stand a persons refraining, under the in1u.
enee Of either moral or intellectual considera.
tons, from using all the power at his disposal
The prevalence of this quality at the South
has led the President, ever since his quarre
with Congress, into one blunder after another
People in Tennessee seldom keep their fingers
out of the enemy's hair, their thumb out o.
his eyes, their knives out of his ribs, anC
their tongues off his character, except under
the influence of fear; and Mr.. johnson has
never been able to believe the slowness, the
moderation, the dislike to extreme courses
which he has witnessed on the part of both
Congress and the Northern people, to be any
thing else"

A MAS BITTEN TO DEATH by AN ENRAGED
HoRsE.-On the Goth ultimo Mr.. William
Garrett, Of Greenvlle, S. c., was riding a
live year old stallion in Laurens District. and
on attempting to remount him, jerked the
bride, thus engaging the horse which sprang
at Mr.. Garrett and bit him severely IN the
arm. A fight then began between the man
and the furious horse, which succeeded in
biting several pieces Of flesh out of the side
of his rider. The struggle continued for some
time, when he bit off two of Mr.. CARROTS
fingers, and threw him down, stamping ON his
chest four or five times as he lay upon the
ground. Mr.. G. then managed to twist the
bride and halter around small tree. and
then crawl off a short way He was found
by neighbor who was passing, and carried
TO the house of Mr.. j. II. Jones. Medical
aid was called in, but Mr.. Garrett died the
same night. The horse remained for hours
IN an enraged condition, and severe means
were obliged to be made use of before he
could be even approached.

Mr.. Chase and the Presidency.
HE WILL ACCEPT THE CONSERVATIVE NOMINATION.

HE WI AtNEfI TIE tONEftN AIlN y NOMINATION..
WASHINGTON, May II.
The stories about Chief Justice Chase and
the Presidency are finally coming into some
tangible shape, He has formally put himself
into the hands of his friends and after the due
amount of counting said that while he is not
a candidate he cannot object to his name and
will run if nominated by the conservatives.
The movement in his behalf seems to originate
in Philadelphia. He was waited upon last
Thursday by a couple ofgentlemen representing
the Citizens Conservative Association of that
place, one of them being the assessor in Mr..
Kellys Congressional district, the other the late
democratic nominee against Mr.. Kelly for Con
gress and the report Of the interview is furn-
ished by the former. Both gentlemen were
delegates to the Doolittle Philadelphia Conven-
ton of 1866, and both are now in full fellow
ship with the democratic party. They told
the Chief Justice of the high respect they
had for him said the people were all turning
towards him to lead them out of the perilous
condition into which they had been brought
by the revolutionary conduct of the republican
party, and tickled his ear with some fine phra:
ses about sweeping the country from ocean to
ocean with his name Mr.. Chase responded
that he was much gratfed with their visit
that his position forbade him from entering
much into politics that he was, however, the
servant Of the people, aud should they call
him to preside for the next four years over the
destinies of the country, he should feel it to be
his duty to comply. He further said that the
office of President never is an agreeable one
would not now be necessarily agreeable-but
he deeply felt the deplorable condition of the
country, and would do anything he could to
restore confidence, and so if the people called
him to the presidency he should not feel at
liberty to decline allowing them the use of his
name. The gentlemen said they were much
pleased with the talk of the Chief Justice.
and after they left him called on various lead
ing democratic congressman to concert meas
ures for placing him in the field as a regular
conservative candidate against General Grant.
