NELSON TO FOLLOW MR. BoUTwELL-MR
EyARTs TO CLOSE.
WASHINGTON, April q, 1sss
During the intervals Of his Illness Alr. Stanbery
has, from time to time by leave of his ply sican die
tated to his secretary positions and points which hs
had in contemplation for his speech on the Impeaeh-
ment trial. AS there is some doubt whether he can
personally appear before the Senate, he will file his
argument. Mr. Stanbery's health is much improved
to-day.
At the consultation of the Presidents counsel to-
day. the understanding was that Mr. Nelson will fol-
low Mr. Boutwell, tomorrow, and Mr. Eyarts will
make the closing oral argument for the President.
Our Consul at st. Thomas, West Indies, under date
of the 14th inst says that Cholera has entirely dis
appeared and that clean bills of health are now is
sued by all consnls But few cases of fever occurred
and they were of mild form.
The officers in the redemption division Of the
Treasury have within the last day two detected
a new counterfeit ON the five cent fractional cur
rency.
The Washington correspondent Of The Telegram
telegTaphs hence the following which you may take
for what it is worth
1t Is rumOred that II the President acquitted he will
request Congress to repeal the obnoxious
bill II they decline TO accommodate him. he will tender
his resignation TO the Senate He w IN his resignation,
give his opinion OF law which c0mpels the President 10
retain as his adviser man devoid Of all honor. The
President will by this step give the lie 10 the assertion
that he is q usurper. tyrant, and wOuldbc king.
New-York tribune., 1868-04-23

The County Tax Levy, which is now before
a Committee of the Senate, is bill OF abomi-
nations, unparalleled in its rottenness and
rascality, loaded with items OF enormous mag
tude to be manipulated and disbursed by the
Board of Supervisors of this County. In every
other legislative body in Washington, Albany,
or New York, the concurrence of two Boards
is necessary for the passage Of every law or
ordinance expending money; and with the
Common Council of this city, not only is the
concurrence of the Aldermen and Councilmen
necessary, but it is requisite that twO-thirds of
all the members of each Board shall vote for
any bill involving the expenditure of money
and no such bill can be legally passed through
both Boards on the same day. In contrast with
this, the Board of Supervisors is endowed with
power to expend millions of dollars every year
upon the vote of seven members-a simple
majority-and should the Mayor veto bill,
the same seven have power to pass it over his
veto The request that we earnestly urge upon
the Senate Committee is, that they will incOr-
porate into the Tax-Levy of this year the
provision that no resolution presented in the
Board of Supervisors shall be passed the same
day upon which it is offered or reported; ;
and, also, that no such resolution shall
become law unless it receives nine votes Of
the twelve members elected to the Board, two
or three are believed to be honest, and personal
jealousies and the rvalries of factions would
probably enable them to secure the votes Of
one or two Others. At all events, if the public
know that they can be saved by securing an
additional vote or two in the Board, they will
be encouraged to make an effort TO elect two
trusty men next November, in place of Super
yisors Tweed and Roche, whose terms expire
this year. Such an amendment to the Tax
Levy can do no harm. 1t will probably do
incalculable good. 1t is not much to ask of
the Senate, and we sincerely hope that our
appeal will be needed. Such men as those
who compose the majority of the Senate Com
mittee, we feel convinced are willing to give
us a chance for salvation without consigning
us absolutely to tile remorseless clutches of
the eormorants who act as Supervisors of this
County.

Mr. Boutwell, yesterday began the delivery
of the opening argument of the summing-up
on the side of the Managers of Impeachment,
and will conclude to-day. The whole argument
is printed herewith. The Senate has voted to
permit as many of the Managers and the
Presidents counsel as desire to do so to file
arguments or address the Senate. Under this
decision we shall probably have arguments
from Messrs. Stevens, Williams, and Logan of
the Managers, and from Judge Curtis and Mr..
Groesbeck. MI. Stanbery, it is thought, will
not be able to attend the trial any further
