We read of numerous bills tabled, referred to Committees or pass ed, resolutions ce1,( fustian indulg ed in, etc., but for the' life cfua 'we can't see its practical bearing. There eems to be a willful heedlessness on tho part of many of our legislators in tlio way they "do" their sittings. It is nn enquiry of every one why more decision iTnot nianifestWhy the exhibitions of party rancor when calm judgment and wise action Is pressing, why the "siiperfloiis shilly-shally of in vestigating committees all that fills time and takes from the public treas ury ? Important questions arc left undecided whilst tho country must listen to the senseless twaddle of eoaft survey reports, report concerning the Mississippi levees and much elsecqual ly interesting. The financial problem must bo solved and that, too, before long. Reconstruction is being rapidly worked out. Our revenue and tariff - laws must bo revised. "" Thcso duties devolve upon Ui-puliii'-Mi Statesmen, and the people will liuM Iiom respon sible to a gn at extent.. GrAST, Siiermaii and Sheridan, is a triplet dear to the hearts of American freemen. ThiiS:) three heroes ot the war have shown that they arc in sym pathy with thoso who sustained them. Our admiration for them is unbound ed, and though the latter has his whims and dogmatisms his heart is right and he would again march to tho sea at the command of loyal millions. The taciturn' ''silent riinii" knows his "know" and we are perfectly willing that ho should smoke his weed, nnd drive fliat horses. If he wants to be President let him say so, if he don't, we have yet others thntMvill lttuioN the position. "Phil."

Do you understand, neighbor? Mew rnger. We confess not to understand. If our neighbor has a heavy eharpe in wo beg him to out with it. We have no knowledge of the case in point. One such incident did occur in the Fall of '66 but it was a "white man" that was discharged by a "nigger." The darkey stated, that by deceit and lying he had gained the "privclege of catin, at do fust table nnd at last one of dc boys agreed he might sleep wid him, and den fo' him to vote dc Dem ocratic ticket ho wouldn't hub him no longer."- The darkey-, however,-was oescrving ot censure and wo bv no means intend to champion his cause, The principle is Democratic, the "white man's" prerogative. Though taught it in the school of adversity the negro ins ivi right to retaliate. Tns project of impeachment is spoken of as having fallen into disfa vor since the report of the Jadiciary Committee. It was never, in favor among the great mass of the people. They would bo glad to have tho : ob stinatc, wotld-be Dictator removed, but the time it will" consume can be much better Improved. ' fie has done m'swrat already and. can harm the . country no more, in fact, will feel less inclined to, if he is made to know that Congress "dares"; and will impeach him should he persist in tantrums. At present ho is obedient and will remain so long is the whip is ready drawn. A Washington dispatch says, the President message is , concilliatory in tone, but it argues that the Congrcssion al plan of reconstruction a failure, and that the country had pronounced against it at the Full election?.

Gcuoral Grant lately paid a visit to West Point, and being desirous of avoiding thatgrcatest of nuisances to a modest man like himself the over civility of the people along his route traveled incognito j uot exactly in disguise, but dressed so differently from his usual habit that ho was re cognizable to but few. : But our artist, Mr. Jewett, had made during tho war too many portraits of the General to be deceived by a change in his wear in:! apparel, and at a elance recognis ed in the shaded f; the features of the "first General of the age." While General Grant remained in tho cabin of the boat ho was approach ed by one of thoso disabled veterans who nre employed, or who employ themselves, in selling tho newspaner known as "The Soldier's Friend, ' a journal, by-the-way, of unusual merit aside from its charitable object, and a copv was laid on his knee. The, .Gen eral, recognizing and admitting the claim of tho disabled veteran on his aid nnd charitv, drew from his wicket a $ greenback and quietly handed it to the mucti astonished soldier. J. lie latter was in doubt what to do until the General, with a nod, dismissed him. As he turned awnv, the soldier, observing his friend more closely, re cognized his old leader, nnd would have spoken ; but a glance from the General silenced him . atid ho bowed and passed on. Vcry.fuw persons on the boat notic cd tho incident or recocrnized the Gen eral. the incognito was not generally penetrated, ami General Grant had the satisluetion ot getting tnrougu iew n ... .1 I X York without one ot thoso involun tary" ovations which the people every wiiere pav mm, ami wiucu iiresu vurj lisasrcaiblo t lis retiring nature, The modesty of General Grant is as "... T 1 excessive as it is genuine, in ins manners, dress, nnd style of living General Grant displayed during the war more republican simplicity than any other general officer of tho army, and maintains tho sama customs still. In manner ho is very unassuming and approachable, and his conversation is n ticcable forils !iiipre;e:idiiig,plaiii,aii(l straijchtlorwnrd style, lucre is no thing declamatory nor pedantic in his tntin np lmrtinyn Tf!a rliofnrw more remarkable for the compact struc ture than the elegance nnd the hnisli o his sentences. ' lie talks practically and writes as he talks;and his language, written and oral, is distinguished by strong common-sense. He dresses in a careless but by no means slovenly manner, and wears no article which attracts attention except the three stars which indicate his rank, Har pers Weekly, A strict count shows that under the most favorable circumstances not more than fortv votes out of one hundred and ninety can be relied upon in the House in favor of impeachment. Of this nniuberscveral are said to pe doubtful, and should the tone of the forthcoming message of the President no tlrmwt moderate, many who are now inclined listen to arguments urging impeach ment will throw their voices nnd influ ence against it. Skvf.iiai. more battles have taken place in Crete, nnd ngain prove the de termination of ilia insurgents to hold out to the last. It is likely that now, after the mnrrinire of the Kins of Greece with a Russian princess, foreign aid will not niiieh lonirer be withheld from the heroic Cretans.

Tho majority of tho Judiciary Com mittee, to Miora the' ' impeachment question has liecnTeflrred, hr.VJ as you were informed. by telegraph yesterday reported in favor of impeachment nnd, their report 'discloses the following Jacts viz : An unconstitutional usurpation of the power on the part of the Presi dent to organize and recognize civil State Governments; tho denial of the nht ot Congress to control tho work of organization, and tho exerciso of power and omission of duties in sup port of tins usurpation and denial ; the wiltul nnd unconstitutional as sumption of power to suspend tlie op erations of tho acts of congress, and the corrupt wilful and unconstitution al refusal to cxecuto tho laws; the unauthorized and illegal surrender and sale of Government property, ami tho fraudulent breach ot the public trust, wherein tho action of the Presi dent in relation to tho Southern rail roads is detailed at length, and much evidence is given relative to tho sale and surrender of railroads and roll ing stock, and other property iu which it is shown that all this property was turned over against tho advice of the Secretary of War, nnd tho Quarter master General. It is also shown that the President extended the time for the payment of installments' of princi pal nnd interest on the railroads pur chased bv the rebel companies. The evidence further shows that at the same time these railroad companies had a sufficient amount 'of n.o icy on do- unci r tn niKi'f. their inilclif imIiicas. Bv his connection with the Southern roads it shows that he realized a profit of over eighteen thousand dollars, The other grounds of impeachment are the corrupt nnd unconstitutional abuse of the veto power; tho abuse of the pardoning power; the surrender of property to the rebels; the disre- mml of the rnrhts of the nrnnertv of refugees and frccdiucn, and of tho Uni ted States, nnd the unconstitutional and corrupt exercise of t!i:v appointing power. Under the latter head, avast amount of testimony has been taken relative to the suspension and appoint ing of civil olheers, nnd,tho cause therefore, in direct violation of the law. Tho report ends with the rcsolu tion : "if(W(W, That Andrew Johnson, President of the United States, bo im peached for hirh crimes and misde meanors." The reading of tho resolution was erected with an outburst ot nppiause from certain parts of the galleries, lappinsr of hinds on the lloor, et while counter demonstrations of hissing were also made on the floor nnd gal lerics,the Speaker all tlie time ham morins with his gavel to restore order. in liomliin li'c'illmt-k. TiiePhilahelphia L -iher comments i this wise on thepio o ition to pay the live-twentv bonds in greenbacks One of the manv propositions like! to come before the country touching the finances and the public debt, is that to pav the Five-twenty United States bonds by an issueof greenbacks in their place. Js'otwit'is'.an ling it is apparent that a policy of this character, even adinilfng that it was at all practicable, which it is not, would be to injure ev ery workingnian and woman in the country, there are men claiming to be intelligent who will favor its consiiina tion. It is the iiockcls of tho man or woman who works, in which is found the great bulk of the amount of circu lating money. The capitalist hardly carries more money, perhaps not as much, iu his pockets as the mechanic keeps no bank account. The capitalist has his warehouse, his. dwelling, his mill, his cotton, his wool, and his real property of all kind ; be might lose the paper money in his pocket and all his United States bonds, when they were gone ho would hold a larger rela tive proportion of the property of the " country than he bail be fore, while the mechanic and tho la borer, whoso nil would be in his pock et or in the saving bank, ,would lose bis all ho would have no property to represent his past labor. tow, to the extent that money is cheapened by nn increase ot its amount, will those hold ing it suffer, nnd as the laboring class es hold the greatest ainount,.thcy must nccc:irily be the severest sullcrers. It is desirable fo have enough ourreu- to carry on the exchanges of the coun try beyond that, currency is nflt only useless, but absolutely detrimental to tho industrial interest1'.' : As to pay ing the 5-20 debt with an issue of greenbacks, the idea is preposterous. In North Carolina a convention has been called for by a largo majority. The Radicals' have secured the larger number' of delegates. Few negroes were elected.

He failed to make the one hundred miles but reached Chicago. ' He walked 1, 27G miles in less than twenty-six walk ing days.
