DEAR DuNnAM; The political cauldron
boils higher and higher, as time advances.
The demurrer filed by Lieut. Governor
Johnson to the information" Of the At
torney General asking rule to show cause
why a writ of quo ,carrantc should not
issue against the Lieutenant Governor,
was overruled by the Supreme Court this
afternoon at three P. NJ. Mcclure pro
nouncing the Judgment ofthe Court oral
| ", Gregg and Harrison dissenting in the
same manner-written opinions to be
fled embracing all the points upon the
final disposition Of the case. The Court
gave until Friday morning next, for the
Lieutenant Governor to present evidence
ia support of the truth of his answer to
the information, agreeing to admit
record evidence and exparte aflidavits, to
| to establish a state of facts aiTording
cause why the Wrd shall not issue. This
! is the exact state of the cause now. The
Judgment this afternoon Overruling the
demurrer indicates that the Court will
grant the writ and declare the Office va
cant. Montgomery, Attorney General,
f. w. CAN'T, and Chancellor Yonley, are
counsel for the State Judge Rose a,ld
Benjamin, of the firm Of Rice & Benja-
min, for the Lieutenant Governor. The
Court room has been crowded during the
progress Of the cause. | took little in
terest in the argument, believing the
cause prejudged.
The Auditor has refused to issue war
rants on judgments against the State,
permitted by the Attorney General A
special committee has been appointed to
investigate and, it is thought, will prefer
articles of impeachment against the At
torney General. 1t is rumored that ar
tclcs of impeachment against Governor
Clayton are being written and will be
preferred tomorrow in the House; also
against one of the Supreme Judges, pro
badly Mcclure This will be done before
the writ against Johnson will be order
ed by the Court Bowen you will have
learned has resigned. Bennett of the
Helena circuit sits in his place. Wiltshire
will resign on the determination Of this
cause. lie takes position in connection
with railroad enterprise more lucrative.
These matters are rife here, Judge Neal
is said to differ with his friends as to the
propriety of some of these steps. The
results are uncertain to be sure. But
