Speculation an to the Result of Han
peHehment-Wagers Rs 80 the Final
ResuIG-JOhnsOn the FRVOrite-Wade
Certain the President Will be Re-
moved.
Special to the Louisville Courier
WASHINGTON, April 21.-Speculation is
rife on the result of the impeachment trial
and betting men are laying wagers thereon.
A large amount of money has been bet, and
notwithstanding the impression that the
President will be convicted, several wager
that he would not be, were declined. In
racing parlance, johnson is the favorite
tonight.
An enthusiastic Western Radical offered
TO put up one thousand dollars that Trum-
bull, of Illinois, would vote for conviction.
1t was not taken, as he, next TO Sherman,
is considered the most doubtful by both
sides. Wade told friend to-day he felt
certain that johnson would be removed,
but he intended to keep his own counsel
about appointments until the duty devolved
upon him to make them.
The statements that he contemplates this
or that person for the Cabinet are alto
gether unreliable, but it is uniformly con-
ceded that Butler can have the Treasury,
and il Stanton determines to retire. he will,
at the request Of the party, accept the War
Office. In such event it is believed that
Senator Morgan, of New York, will be
McCulloch's successor.
Radicals having failed to coerce Senators
Fowler and Sprague, Whe treat their threats
with contempt, now swear Fowler has
abandoned the party, because he is a suitor
for the Presidents daughter, and that
Sprague is afraid of his handsome and
spirited wife.
During the interval of the illness of the
Hon. Mr.. Stanhery, ne has, from time to
time, by leave of his physician, dictated to
his Secretary the positions and points
which he had in contemplation for his
speech on the impeachment trial. As there
is some doubt whether he will be able,
personally, to appear before the Senate, his
argument will be fled
At consultation of Presidents counsel
to-day, the understanding was that Mr..
Nelson will follow Mr.. Boutwell, to-mor-
row, and Mr.. Evarts will deliver the closing
argument in behalf of the President.
Mr.. Stanbery's health il much improved
tonight.
New YORK, April 22.-The Tribune's
Washington dispatch states that j. K Her
bert was never on Buffers staff, nor in his
department, and if he wrote letter to s.
D. Campbell urging Buffers appointment
in Johnson's Cabinet, he did it without
Buffers knowledge and on his own respon-
sibility.
The Suns Washington special says that
Wade will return Sheridan to New Or
leana McCulloch will % IN Now YORK In
reside; Welles will remain in Washing
ton Seward will go TO Auburn, and Sen
atOr Fessenden will probably have the
mission to England.
Senator Nyei is seriously ill.
The Herald's Washington dispatch says
Messrs. CONFESS, of California, and Thayer,
of Nebraska, are candidates for the Secre-
taryship of the Interior under Wade.

THE Duty OF THE DEMOCRACY.

The letter of Mr. Belmont, Chairman
of the Democratic National Executive
Committee, which we publised o few
DAYS since, was framed in The proper

that should receive the assent Of the en-
tire Democratic and Conservative people
and they should be acted upon in every

As to men for the Presidency, We thor

the attack from the moment the nomins-

The Oshkosh Northeastern, Of last week
contained an editorial favoring the re-
nomination Of Hon p Sawyer for the
third term as the Republican candidate
for Congress from this 9Th Congressional
District of Wisconsin, Our first feeling
was of surprise and distrust at the move
merft, 1t being contrary to precedent in
this District to give a representative more
than two terms in office. But reflections
convinces us that this will be the wisest
policy our party in this District can adopt
for the Fall campaign Of 1868. Our rea
sous can be briefly given; Mr.. Sawyer
has given unbounded satisfaction to large
majority of his constituents, during his
term of Office Our harbors and other
improvements never received the atten-
ton before that has been given them by
our Representative, and he has pledged
by his acts to still favor our local interests.
Mr.. Sawyer has gained by experience a
more than average knowledge of the
routine of business combined with his
extraordinary endurance and persever
ance, will make us a valuable member
of Congress for the next two
years. And there is another
reason; Mr.. Sawyer has beea a servant
Of the people during four years Of bitter
political STRIFE while from circumstances
he was compelled by keen sense of right
justice to stand firm on the radical plat
form, when he knew he must by so dong
rehnquish all hope of obtaining any share
OF those fayors accorded to Representa-
tives when the Congress and executives
of the Nation act on the same political
basis. 1t is but due to Mr.. Sawyer that
he have at least one term in Congress
under Republican President 1t is due
to one who has proved faithful to his
trust and efficient to his duties; who has
never swerved one hair breadth from the
course his political friends had right to
except from him who is as firm as the
rock in his action, and whose judgement
has been ever in the right He has
served US faithfully in a time when politi-
cal trouble was his only recompense.
Now let US give him a term in Congress
when he can have quietness and harmony
with a President. Our Congressman
has saved the ship Of State in stormy
and troubled sea-let him now enjoy
pleasant passage Oh its tranquil bosom,
and with a trusty anl capable captain
1t is due to him from the Republican
party of this District-and we move that
this nomination be by reclamation and
unanimous. Island City Times.
Second the motion.

SEYMOUR AND INSANITY the
course OF an article attempting to account
for the nomination of Seymour the New
York Indepcndeat says:
''Leymour, who had been looked upon
as candidate. had, nevertheless, months
ago, been commanded by his physician to
refrain from the excitements of a pollti-
cal canvass. With no opposition to speak
ungenerously Of any mans infirmity, we
think it nevertheless due to the public to
state that Seymour is not without painful
apprehensions of a stealthy approaching
insanity which creeps ike a shadow in
to his brain; calamity from which we
sincerely hope he may be spared-for his
worst political enemy could not wish such
an affiiction to befall him. 1t was on ac-
count Of these approximations that, months
ago, he published lettel declining to be
candidate. Then again, just before
the convention assembled these forebod-
ings still in his mind), he stated to the
New York delegation, in positive and
peremptory words, that his name must
not be presented. He had, moreover.
some time time before, informed MIR.
Pendeton that, while he would not be
| his supporter, he would not be his rival;
and it was to this pledge to which Sey-
mour referred when he said, in one of his
! speeches in the convention, that he could
not in honor be candidate.

PendletOn'S Speech.

Mr. George III. Pendleton, having been
rejected at New York as a candidate, has
taken the stump of explanation and de-
fence Of the Democratic platform as he
says, Mr.. Seymour must understands it.
Pendleton has no reserve now. 1t is not
has funeral IL is not his chance of cleo
ton that is to be helped or injured by
anything he may say. He, therefore, ex-
plains the platform as he would have it,
and then says to Horatio Seymour, RE
pudiate this explanation, if you dare. .
Mr.. Pendleton is forced to admit that
the taxation for 1869 is reduced from
what it was last year. With equal truth
he might have added that the taxation
of 1866 was 500, 900, 900 less than the
year previous, and that last spring anoth-
er reduction equal to 800, 900, coo
was made. 1t was not a reduction on
New England fabrics but upon all the
fabrics of the country it was a removal
of the boxes on boots and shoes woolen
and cotton goods, hats and caps. all the
articles used in making up the clothing
of the people. 1t was Tightening of the
taxes on tools of the workman, cutlery
and glass and other articles entering into
the domestic uses Of the people. The
taxes upon these articles were reduced by
eighty millions of dollars in March last,
and had it not been for the course of Pen
dleton and Seymour, and their associates
in opposing and delaying reconstruction,
that reduction might have been made
three years ago. In his array of the ex-
penditures of the government since the
close of the war, Pendleton carefully omit
ted the fact that $3.50, 900, 900 of the ma
tional debt have been redeemed and paid
off. Had democracy co-operated with
the government in restoring the rebel
States, the military expenditures, now
reduced to peace establishment, might
have been brought down to that point
years ago, and a corresponding amount
OF the debt discharged Chicago 731i-
