| WASHINGTON May 1.-THE House resolu-
\ tion setting the impeachment managers to
work AGAIN has fhp fOli0vuiTor or,,l,N
| WHEREAS, Information has come to the
managers which seems to them TO furnish
| probable cause to believe that improper
| influences have been used to influence the
determination of the Senate upon the arti-
| cles OF impeachment exhibited to the Senate
| by the House of Representatives against the
1 President of the United States" etc.
| The statement that Chase paid congrat-
ulatory visit to the President yesterday is
untrue.
Salutes in honor of acQuittal were fred in
| several Northern cities.
| Ii the Senate, yesterday, Mr.. Nye said:
| Let Arkansas come in to-day. Let us have
a birth with death. Let us pass a concur
rent resolution admitting the State of Ar
| kansas, and relieve him of his embarrass-
I meEt by passing a concurrent resolution,
and not sending it to him at all to have it
sent back here at the end of ten days with
| another defiant veto. We have had enough
of him. Let US admit Arkansas before the
sun is down, and let the President have
another sweet morsel to roll under his
| tongue
This mornings Chronicle says: "The
| House of Representatives should prepare,
forthwith, new article of impeachment
and arraign the Presidential culprit at once;
and the Senate, as constituted after the ad-
mission of the Southern States, should take
short sharp, and decisive action upon it."
! 1t is stated that Cabinet change is pend
ing, and 1t is asserted that the new Cabinet
| will tend to harmonize Congress and the
| President, and that the President will cease
| obstructng reconstruction on the Con-
| gressiopal plan, the progress Of events haV-
| ing rendered his own plan impracticable,
and the material interests of the South re-
auiring immediate rsPrcsse littstviioT 0f soIlv
| kind. This statement is made on high Re
publican authority.
| General Breokinridge has returned from
the Holy Land, and was TO have left for
Quebec on the twelfth instant.
