articles. Grimes, of Iowa, came next. He spoke

The Impeachment Court convened on Tuesday,

time the Managers proceeded to take some testi¬ 
mony regarding certain influences said to have been

On Saturday the ConrL re-assembled. The most 
intense feeling prevailed among all parties. The 
first question arose on an order, submitted by 
Senator Williams on Monday last, that the eleventh 
article be voted on first. This was decided in the 
affirmative, by a vote of 34 to 19. The Chief Justice 
then directed that the galleries should maintalh 
order, and the Clerk read the eleventh article, after 
which the Chief Justice addressed the first Senator 
thus : “ Mr. Senator Anthony—How say you, is the 
respondent, Andrew Johnson, President of the 
United States, guilty or not guilty of a high misde¬ 
meanor, as charged in this article?” Whereupon 
Senator Anthony responded “ Guilty,” and the like 
question was asked of every Senator. The vote re¬ 
sulted in an acquittal upon this article, by a vote of 
35 to 19, as follows : 
Guilty — Senators Anthony, Cameron, Cattell, 
Chandler, Cole, Conkling, Conness, Corbett, C’ragin,

derson, Hendricks, Johuton, McCreerv, Norton, 
Patterson of Tennessee, Ross, Saulebury, Trumbull, 
Van Winkle, Vickers. 
Senator Williams then made a motion that the 
Court adjonru till Tuesday, the 26th inst. While 
this was pending, the Chief Justice announced the 
vote and declared the Resident acquitted on the 
eleventh article. The Chief Justice then, at the 
suggestion of Senator Hendricks, declared the mo¬ 
tion of Senator Williams out of order, on the ground 
that the Court was then in process of executing an 
order, the vote not having been taken on all the 
articles. Senator Conness appealed from this de¬ 
cision of the Chair, and the decision wasrevereed, 
by a vote of 24 to 30. Various amendments were 
then offered and lost, and the motion of Senator 
Williams was carried, by a vote of 32 to 21, so the 
High Court adjourned till Tuesday, the 26th inst-., 
at 12 o’clock.

ticed on Parliament.

The Sultan at Constantinople opened his new 
Council on Monday, the 11th, with a remarkable 
speech. He said the time had come when Turkish 
manners must yield to European civilization. 
An ecclesiastical deputation waited upon the 
Queen at Windsor Castle on the 14th inst., and 
presented to Her Majesty an address from the hie¬ 
rarchy of the Irish Church, giving their views in 
News from Hayti.—T he latest HaytieD news is 
important. President Sal nave had escaped from 
Cape H&ytien, and had reached Port au Prince. He 
and Gen. De Lorme, who acts as Secretary of State, 
Interior, War and Navy, arrested many of the citi¬ 
zens and ordered some to be shot Numerous mur¬ 
ders and robberies had taken place. The stores of 
six American merchants were robbed by tbe troops, 
Salnave threatened t o seize and burn them to ashes, 
at the same time he used violent measures to the 
foreign consuls. Many Americans had been shot at 
in their own windows, and were forced to seek refuge 
in the American Consulate. Mr. Hollister and hie 
attaches had an interview with President Salnave 
and Gen. De Lorme. They demanded protection 
and were received defiantly and denied protection. 
The American Minister at once sent a dispatch to 
Havana for some American men-of-war to go to his 
assistance, lie also sent to Jamaica for a British 
war steamer, which was sent to his aid. The whole 
country is reported to be in amiB against Salnave, 
excepting Connives, Jacmel and Freecape. The 
Revolution iu the North has been successful under 
the lead of Gen. Fissage, Sage and the Cacos. The 
entire South is against the Government 
Mexican News. —Advices from the city of Mexico 
to May 1st, via Acapulco, state that Juarez is in the 
quiet possession of the Presidency. All attempts 
at revolution in the different portions of the country 
had been suppressed Gen. Martinez had passed 
through Tcpsic on the way from Sinoloa to submit 
to the mercy of the Government. All was quiet 
at Sinoloa and Guerrero. Overland advices from

uuder Guerrera. Three hundred rebels were killed 
and wounded, and six hundred captured. Ten staff 
officers were shot. Col. Crespo of the State troops, 
was killed. The General escaped. The revolution 
is a failure. 
Education at the South.— One of the best signs 
of the times is the increased attention given to 
education at the South. In Wilmington, N. C., 
fourteen hundred colored children are now studying 
in schools which are said to compare favorably with 
those of New England, while a system of schools for 
poor white c hildren has been in successful operation 
for over two years. Since the oiler of assistance from 
the agent of the Peabody fuud, the trustees haveen 
joyed greater facilities for extending the work, and

commodatione for every child, white or colored, in 
Wilmington. Other Southern cities are also mak¬ 
ing progress in this direction. 
Brazilian News. —By advices from Rio Janeiro 
to April 24th we learn that some changes had taken 
place in tbe Brazilian Cabinet; Senor Albuquerenne

tion recently held in Hartford, the report on the 
cause in Connecticut showed that there were thirty- 
seven circles and a full regiment of infantry enlisted 
in the Irish Republican Army. The usual appeal for

THE PACIFIC RAILROAD. 
RURAL NEW-YORKER OFFICE, ) 
Roorkbtbb. May 19,1888. > 
Our local money matters remain much as heretofore no¬ 
ticed. The banks are well supplied with funds, and the de¬ 
mands of borrowers are light. The New York market is 
easy. The past week has shown decided improvement in 
P.ohton. AU the principle money centers closed up the last 
week with a better feeling '.n financial Allaire than has been 
experienced In some time. The banks are now exchanging 
their May compounds for 3 per cent, certificates. The 
amount of compound interest notes presented for exchange 
at the 6ab-Treaaary In New York up to the closeof laBt week 
was nearly $16,000,000, Cash redemption of compounds are 
only made at Washington. 
Gold was rather active last week, though there was no 
great fluctuation In prlceB, The impeachment excitement 
nnd but little effect on the market. Sales were made yester¬ 
day at 139*. 
Wool.—T here is no change to notice in the market for 
wool. Sales in Boston last week were to the amonnt of 761,- 
000 Its. at about former rates. 
Wheat and Flour.— There is hut little change in prices 
in the Eastern market. Receipts are light, hut holders both 
in New York and Boston manifest a disposition to realize. 
Local Mvv.ket— Owing to a protracted season of falling 
weather the local market Is without the usual animation at 
this time of the year. The wool market ia especially dull, as 
the new clip is r.of yet offering, and probably will no: be for 
a month or more to come. Prices of tteece are nominal at 
quotations. A few hales of No. 1 pnlled, were taken on 
Saturday nt 33c—a. top ngure for this class of wools. 
Grain—T he grain tnarket is dull with no quotable change 
in prices Barley ia especially slow and bnt little offering. 
Provisions hold up with no immediate prospect of declen¬ 
sion. Butter 58 In limited supply and is taken at Improved 
rates. Vegetables are scarce. Shipments to New York have 
left the market quite hare of potatoes and prices are higher. 
Hay !b down a trifle, hut still higher than ia customary so 
late in the season. 
The progress of the Pacific Railroad is so steady 
that no one wonders at its rapidity. Few consider, 
fewer still estimate the grandeur of the fact, that 
both rauges have been surmounted. The Sierra 
Nevada Mountains were regarded as the great obsta¬ 
cles to its construction. These have now been over¬ 
come by the Central Pacific. Railroad Company, and 
the locomotive is now advancing across the Salt 
Lake Basin, to meet the Union Pacific Railroad, 
which is successfully crossing the Rocky Mountain 
ridges. The interval remaining to be constructed 
presents no engineering difficulties equal to those 
already overcome. It is confidently predicted that 
the whole line will be open for business in about, 
two years from this time. 
Accustomed a6 we are getting to the story, the 
Pacific Railroad is the marvel of our day. Nor can 
we easily exaggerate its effect on the development 
of the interior of the continent, and on the course 
of the commerce of the world, and the boldest can 
hardly over-estimate tbe financial success of the 
companies which control it. 
It will be seen by the advertisement in another 
column that the completed portion of the Central 
Pacific Railroad is already earning vastly more than 
its expenses and the interest on its Bonded debt. 
The First Mortgage Six-Per Cent. Gold Bonds on 
that end of the line are offered at par and accrued 
interest, in currency.
