The Impeachment Trial was resumed on Thurs¬ 
day of last week. Tbe Court was opened at twelve 
o’clock, with the usual proclamation. All the man¬ 
agers were present, except Mr. Stevens, and tbe 
President’s counsel were also all present. The 
members of the House of Representatives appeared 
in larger numbers than on recent occasions. After 
two or three minor witnesses bad been called up by 
the managers, Mr. Curtis, of tbe President’s coun¬ 
sel, rose and commenced the opening argument for 
the defense. Before its conclusion the Senate ad 
journed for one day. 
Upon the re-asscmbling of the Court of Impeach¬ 
ment, on Friday, Mr. Curtis resumed his address. 
He claimed that Mr. Stanton did not come within 
the terms of the Tenure-of-OlQce act; that no up* 
pointment was made when a commission was issued 
to Gen. Thomas to act as Secretary ad interim, and, 
by a sort of non xequitur, insisted that there was a 
vacancy from the moment when Mr, Stanton re¬ 
ceived his letter of dismissal. Ho then passed to 
the charge of conspiracy to obtain possession of tbe 
War office and Government property, aud claimed 
that there was no conspiracy, for Gen. Thomas had 
6imply obeyed the order of hiB military superior. 
In considering what were impeachable offenses, lie 
denied that what, the President had said ol'Cougress 
came under that head, and quoted from laws and 
letters to show that telling the truth about officers 
of the Government wis not an offence against the 
law. Passing over the eleventh article of Impeach 
ment, he dosed his remarks. Gen. Lorenzo Thomas 
was then sworn and examiued by Mr. Stanbery. No 
new points were elicited. 
Lieut. Gen. Sherman was examined on Saturday, 
and stated that he had several interviews with the 
President on the subject, of the removal of Mr. 
Stanton, both before aud after that event. Objec¬ 
tion was made by the managers to the question as 
to what conversation Gen. Shermau had with the 
President on tbis subject January 14tb, aud a rather 
lengthy and very bitter controversy took place be¬ 
tween tbe opposing counsel. Before the contro¬ 
versy ended, a recess was taken for ii/teen minutes. 
Subsequent to this, the Chief Justice ruled that the 
question was admissible, but the Senate reversed 
this ruling, and denied the question. Other ques¬ 
tions of similar purport were objected to, and the 
objections likewise sustained. 
It is thought the Trial will be completed by the 
20th inst. 
Mr. Woodward of Pennsylvania on Saturday in¬ 
troduced a bill providing that when a bill is passed 
over the President’s veto, the President may order 
the Attorney-General to test its constitutionality in 
the Supreme Court, using only rhe points urged by 
tbe President in his veto message. 
Prom tbe South, 
Thb sugar crop promises unusually well in 
Louisiana. A planter writes : — “ The freedmen are 
working better and more cheerfully than at any time 
since Ibe war. If only let alone, they will naturally 
< fall into line’ a6 laborers, help themselves aud save 
the planter.’ 1 
The U. 8. law officers in Florida have just sold the

named included four engines, thirty-four cars, the. 
Office and all the fixtures. 
In the Virginia Convention on the Sfcli inst., the 
resolution prohibiting the Legislature horn estab¬ 
lishing separate schools for the two races was de¬ 
feated by a vote of 67 to 11. All the propositions, 
including homestead exemption for relief, were dis¬ 
cussed on the same day. 
From tbe West. 
Another fearful steamboat disaster occurred 
on Lake Michigan on the 9th inst. The steamer 
Sea-Bird took fire when off' Waukegan, and in 
ten minutes was completely wrapped in flames. 
There were about one hundred passengers on 
hoard, including eight or ten ladies and several 
children. Of these, so far as known, there are hut 
two survivors. The officers of the boat lost all 
presence of mind, and no effort was made to save 
the passengers. The Sea-Bird was valued at 170,000. 
A dispatch from Omaha Bays that depredations of 
1 a serious character are being committed daily by the 
| Indians, unchecked, and that Indian agents and con- 
51 tractors are striving to suppress reports of the true 
■* state of affairs. The dispatch mentions three ranches 
! that have recently been plundered and burned by 
i parties of Indians varying in numbers from fifty to 
7 one hundred. The white owners of the ranches 
) handed together for defense, when three of their 
[ number were killed after a severe fight, during which

his brains exuded from tbe wound. 
The assassination has caused the iutensest excite¬

taken every means to ferret out nDd apprehend the 
assassin. Rewards for bis arrest arc offered by tbe 
Government and the local authorities amounting 
to $14,000, aud the police at all points are watchful.

upon the Feuiaus, and it is alleged that the assassin 
is a Fenian from New York, who was detailed for 
the purpose, the choice having been decided by lot. 
Oue James Whelan has been arrested on charge of 
committing the atrocious deed. There is said to be 
strong evidence against him, and it is alleged that

Duty’s Washer fully meets the wants of the large

15. If every poor, tolling woman could test, as 1 
tested, this valuable implement, “Washing day” 
would be ehorn of its terrors. The Public’s sincere
