Senator, the late Hon. Reverdy Johnson. An
drew Johnson's impeachment trial then began,
and there were calls on the Maryland legtSla-

no objection could be advanced. but a demo-
crat, so that an additional vote could be Sc
cured against Johnsons Impeachment. At this
juncture MIR. NickerS was elected, no other
available man being thought OF at the time,
except Governor Swami. who preferred To re-
main at the head Of the state government
MIR. Vickers took his seat in the United States
Senate three days after the beginning OF the
