THE KENoSHA TELEGRAPH.
THURSDAY. DECEMBER %, 1870.
SAN DOMINGO.
-

q
The Senate of the United States had
sn all-night session on Wednesday night
of last week, on the question of appoint
ing commission to go To San Domingo
and investigate its affairs and report to
the Senate, having re ference to its annex
alton. Senator Sumner opposed the ap-
pointment of the commission, and, IN the
course of his remarks, was very severe on
she President. Senators Morton and
Chandler defended the President, and
sthers replied to them. Altogether, it
sas the bitterest discussion that has
:ranspired in the Senate for a long time.
The vote was carried by 80 to II, there be
ing % absentees. .,@'s..g "a IS.
Sumner having spoken of the President
desiring to have the COMMITTEES of Foreign
Relations remodeled, the defenders of the
President in the Senate, it was given out,
would make an effort to remove Sumner
and appoint some. one in favor of the
acquisition of San Domingo as chairman
of the Committee. Late reports say it
willnot be attempted for the reasons
list. it cannot be accomplished, and I'd,
no one can be found as competent for the
place as Sumner.
The House has yet to pass the resolu
ton for appointment of the commission
before the Presidentis authorized to ap
point them. There is but little doubt Of
the passage of the resolution by thu
House. The President being in favor O.
the acquisition of San Domingo ana hav
ing recommended the appointment of 6
commission, 1t would seem but just that !
commission should be appointed, an in
yestigatlon had, and the facts reported
This will bring the matter fairly before
Congress and the people. If the people
are in favor of the acquisition, Genera
Grant will be- And if the people art
opposed to it, he will have no policy ii
opposition to the will of the people. &
We are in favor of the acquisition o
San Domingo on equitable terms and
without dishonor. Whenever San Do
ningo is ready to become a part of the
United States and give an equivalent fo

If both parties are to be equally benefited

there should be no payment on eithe
side. Ifone party is to be benefited
more than the other, that one should pa

IMPEACHMENT OF GOVERNOR HOLDEN
The late Republican Legislature OF
North Carolina passed law providing
for the impeachment of State officers for
high crimes and misdemeanors. The
Legislature is now Democratic, and the
House has impeached Gov. Holden for,
rs alleged, improperly using the military
power of the State to control the election.
The Governor has appeared before the
Senate and asked time to prepare for
trial and he has been given thirty days.
Governor Holden used the military rs he
claims, only as his duty required HIM, to
secure fair election. Judging from the
result of the election and the known
operations of the Ku Klux, the Governor
failed to secure to large number of Re-
publicans their right to vote. He, how
ever, used the military, and the Demo
cratG now being in the ascendancy have
impeached him. The Governor feels Ger.
Rain of acquittsl even by Democratic
court. It will probably be an interest
ing trial. and We shall try to keep our
Rcaders informed of its progress.

Triton, Bowen, THE INDEPENDENT
AND THE BROOKLYN UNIoN.-Theodore
Tilton's valedicsory appears in the last
number of the Independent, and from i,
we learn of his retirement from its edi
torship to be succeeded by its sole pro
prietor and publisher, Henry G. Bowen
Mr.. Tilton takes the editorial charge Of
the Brooklyn Dolly Union, and ha.
agreed to write, As special contributor
to the first page of the Independent
The change Is satisfactory to
all parties. Mr.. Bowen, in re
marks following Tilton's valedictory
says he "is happy to announce to the pub
lie that this change is not the fruit of any
misunderstanding between Mr.. Tiltor
and himself. His retirement, though in
volving many regrets to both parties and
sunderlng an official tie which has always
been marked by the largest mutual conf
dence, is based on reasons in the wisdom
and propriety of which they are both
agreed" Mr.. Bowen closes by saying
" we shall in our next issue announce our
plans for the future. We assure the pub.
tic that arrangements have already been
perfected to make the Independent worthy
of its past history, and as much better al
lies in the compass of earnest human
effort"

The systematic routine of official bust
ness in the D partment of Washington
which so often excites tho admiration
and amazement of outsiders-was finely
illustrated the other day, in the dispo 81
tion of the case of Engineer Kellogg, OF
the Aavy. That officer, it will be rec
objected, was killed in an ARRAY at Key
West on the 9th of November. His
funeral occurred next day, and, q week
later, on the 23d, the Department, with
delicate consideration for the circumstan
ccs in which tho deceased was thus plas.
ed, published general order " relieving
Chief Engineer Kellogg from further
duty on board the gunboat Terror" But
aor the issue of this timely order it would
probably have been necessary to court
martial the dead man for absence without
leave.

A MINISTER 70 ENGLAND has at last
beer found. The President has nominal
ed Gen Schenk, and the Senate, without
referring the nomination to the Commit
tee ON Foreign Relations and without
r ing into executive Session, on motion
OF Mr.. Sumner, confirmed the nomination
unanimously. The President, the Sen
ate and the people think Gen. Schenk
will make good minister and it is hoped
he will effect speedy and satisfactory
settlement of the Alabama claims.

THE COLLEGE BOAT-R1CE.

CAMBRIDGE vs. OXF0RD-THE LIGHT BLUE AND

The college boat-race which is an event to
Londoners II not the whole British people second only
TO the Derby, took place yesterday over the Morake
Putney course the same which Harvard sustained de-
feat last August against oxford. In this country the
meeting Cambridge and oxford this year is possessed
OF much interest. college boys taking silent
part in it. for the reports tell us that Cambridge aban
doned the stroke long peculiar TO themselves and adopted
that OF Harvard This Of itself is fatterng but who
can measure the bounds Of satisfaction which the intel
lgence will arouse that in the very first encounter after
the adoption Of this stroke. Cambridge not only won the
race but covered the distance in MrtsI and hdH sec
onds less time than recorded beforel II con

style of the Harvard lost them the on the
memorable 27th OF August 1862 but rather their phys

chilling to the crews. Yesterday it clear and pleas

thronged the hanks OF the river every available point

also crowded and every kind of craft that could be
obtained including steamboats, and barges' were moored
along each bank Of the river, while the middle stream
was kept clear by Mr. Lord of the Thames Conservancy

Tho rested on their IN mdsream nearly eight
minutes when the Cantabs made their appearance and
took up position the Middesex side Of the river.
They also had most enthusiastic reception from the
multitude. and seemed TO DO In splendid condition.
An oven start was Effected and the boats went of with
strong tide in their favor. At the Aqueduct go YARDS
the Cantabs began to gain. and when they reached
Craven Cottage hreo quarters Of me) they were half
length ahead. Here the oxfords spured, and kept 1t
up for some distance. ,.-~ -
Their friends on shore wildly cheered them on. but
without effect The momentary struggle turned In favor
Of the Canabs, though the latter evidently rowing
within their strength; and at Hammersmith Bridge the
Cambridge clear Of the Oxford boat Under the arch
the Oxonans again spurted aud succeeded In reducing
the gain Of their opponents TO half length sharp
struggle followed Corney Reach, but as they passed
the Isle OF Ait i miles, the Oxonians began to fade and
the Cantabs who were still fresh rapidly drew In 'front.'
and won the race.
The astOnishment and enthusiasm OF the spectators
found expression in q storm OF screams and cheers as
Cambridge reached tho stake-boat
The time OF the has been varouslyl reported but
authoritatvely stated to be 20 minutes and 80
seconds.
The Cambridge crew the morning OF tho race
weighed eleven pounds than the Oxfords. The
winners owe in small degree their success to tho ad
