Reception at the Executive Mansion.

Last night was dreary and cherries; a
driving storm OF hail and sleet, keen blast and
bitter cold welcoming those who encountered its
pitiless effects. 1t would have been thought
that but few persons would dare the hardships
of the night, yet the reception at the Executive
Mansion was more largely attended than upon
any evening previous during the season.
There was but one feature OF the reception
which we noted varying from others, viz: the
absence Of any OF the prominent members of the
dominant party of either House of Congress.
The party gathered was as gay, social and bril-
liant, and those present were delighted and the
throng most enjoyable.
As usual, Marshal Gooding presented visitors
to the President, when they were taken charge
of by Gen Michler, who introduced them to Mrs.
Slower and Mrs. Patterson, as also the Misses
white, of Tennessee, who assisted in doing the
honors Of the evening. The President was ap-
parently in excellent spirits, and received those
who called kindly.

Secretary of the Treasury by President Hsrri-

wards expunged by the persistent efforts of the
Hon Thomas H. Benton.

The War Department.

Adjutant General Thomas called at the War
Department about 10 a. m. yesterday, and de-
manded from Secretary stanton the possession
of the Office, books papers, &c. The Secretary
received the General very courteously, but per-
emptorily refused the demand made OF him. and
remarked that it would only be surrendered by
superior force. The interview lasted about If
ten minutes, Gen. Thomas departing going to
us room on the floor below, and subsequently, re-
visiting the White House, and then returning to
his residence, corner Of Tenth and II streets
The General complained of being unwell, and he
did lot return to the War office. Senator Chsnd'

we could learn, nothing was done up to q late
hour last night,

seconded by tho President, we were very willing
sued by Congress. The last events show that
forbearance is misconstrued, and has ceased to
be q virtue. We trust, therefore, that Congress,
in whom we have the highest con hdence, will no
longer delay to act, but that by instant and de
cisive conduct IL will remove the great htn1rAnce
and danger OF the hour assert Its own proper au-
thority, limit the functions Of the Erecutiye
within safe bounds, and put us In the true path
way to peaee, order, progfess and tranquilllty."

CONGRESS YESTERDAY, AND THE
PROGRESS OF THE IMPEACH'
MENT BUSINESS.

We devote a large space to the proceedings OF
the House yesterday upon the impeachment
of the President, and we also lay before our
readers all the material facts and incidents
which we have been able to collect which bear
upon this important movement. 1t has been and
still is our purpose to avoid the sensational, the
visionary and the mere speculative aspects OF
this question, while we keep our readers advised
of just what occurs at either end Of the Avenue,
and also of the temper and spirit of the people,
both in the national capital and in other por-
lions OF our great country.
The resolution was adopted by strict party
vote; and though this may be regretted BY some
that It so, 1t was not possible, under the cir
cumstances, for 1t to have been otherwise.
One marked feature characterized the proceed
ings throughout-there was no excitement
Everybody seemed to regard it as a foregone con
clusion, and when the vote was announced IL
for and Al against the resolution, 1t was receives
without any Manifestations OF applause, or an!
fymptoms Of sensation whatever.
We could protract our remarks descriptive o
the scenes then and there but we forbcar tina
we may make room for the recital Of such Incl
dents az will more particularly interest thu

THE PRESIDENT sent a communication to the
Senate, yesterday, explaining or giving his
reasons for removing Mr.. Stanton. 1t is a docu-
ment Of some forty legal-cap pages, and is in the
Presidents own handwriting In defending his
course he says that under the law and the tenure
Of office act itself, Mr.. Stanton's term OF office
expired on the 4th of April, 1865, one year after
the expiration Of Mr.. Lincoln's term, for which
term he was nominated and confirmed He
argues that Mr.. stanton hos acted ever since AS
Secretary of War by suferance, and that not
having been nominated and confirmed since the
expiration Of his first term, the Senate has 10
control over his tenure of office.

nation of stay-at-homs patriots, who
have supported the Government"
chiefly by feeding upon its patronage,
and who have subordinated every other
interest to their own personal ends, it
will have y salutary effect. Whatever
men their downfall may bring forward
cannot possibly exercise worse iu-
huence upon public affairs, than they
have welded, and the chances are that
any change will be for the better.
The feeling against the men to whom
We refer, is evidently very strong
amosg that portion of the soldiers who
vote with the Republican party. Moth
ing shows this palmer, than the precip-
itate retreat of the Intelligeacer. Our
neighbor feels that he has aroused a
very considerable amount of. indigna-
tion against the men whom he repre-
sents, and he further knows that they
cannot dispense with the aid of the in
dignant military. Hence he abandons
the controversy with more haste than
dignity. The purpose is evidently to
effect by wire-pulling what caDuet be
won in an open fight. If the organ
dared to continue its assaults upon the
soldier element, the consequenceswould
be disastrous and it is perfectly aware
of the fact.
The soldiers are now iu a condition to
dictate their own nominees, and they
are conscious of their strength. The
suppression of their Convention was in
tende to prevent their combination for
self-protection and they seem to be
aware of it. Nevertheless they will not
acquiesce without an effert, and we
much mistake the symptoms if Mr..
HUBBARD is not compelled to yield the
track in favor of military man.
