eld man bad well recovered the use of his eyes. When he had, however, he merely glanced up at the sky, saw that it still stormed, shook his head, hailed a passing cab, and jumped in, saying : To the Perfect cf Police, in haste," and away he went We will now follow the cab containing the masked stranger, which at once car ried hirn back from whence he started and hastily alighting he entered, but, in stead cf proceeding to the chamber of death, as before, he now opened the door of a room situated cn the first floor in which he found seated three persons of distinguished appearance ; they were quitly-pa?4aking.of winebfjyde a table. All is well," said he, doffing the maik, and revealing a face anything but handsome, though of a somewhat stern and forbidding expression. But do you think the priest will keep a stilftongue in his head !' inquired" one who, by his dress denoted tha physician. Undoubtedly ; he is one of us, and, further, I well nigh scared him out of his skin ; so there is nothing to fear irom him. Dut I dread this work." "Be cautious, count don't waver but remember our oath. It must be done. Already our President and cine mem bers are in the clutches of the police and were it for naught else but revenge. I -would kill her." exclaimed one of the tliree, with all the veherr.er.ee and impel uosity ot a trenenman. : . .vft'fcll, ire'.!,-to your work, th r ; but, .r, ycu s.iy - Yes, vt : . i . - ' -via a ' to i fii- me. :it- r. -.vwuy . it.' ..t'i ; then, I cannot ro with It is iist as v.. . i tnu yourself ea?v ue will be with you soon. .. With which all three left the room, leaving the count looking sad and deject ed enough, for be it known, he did really leve that is, as far as he was capable of loving his fair kinswoman, and had actually proffered her hand in marriage; in doing which, however, he had more than one object first, of course, he de sired to gratify his passion, and this was most apparent; but under all was tne secret purpose of (as she had justly sus pected) securing to himseli ner weaitn, into the possession of which, it should he here remarked, shs had been (though it was once confiscated1) permanently rein stated by the Emperor, who it will be remembered, adopted this delicate policy to ingratiate himself into the good gra ces of the nobility, whom he was anxious to have reccirnize him as Emperor, if not King, of France, hence the wealth of our heroine of which we speak, and which, failing to gain by marriage, the count hoped now to secure by her death, and with this pleasing prospect he now consoled himself, while the others pro ceeded to the chamber of death, into which we find them assembled, all masked, for they dreaded the gaze of their victim. She seemed perfectly calm when they entered, and apparently engaged in prayer, which they seemed loth to inter rupt, 60 they, in silence, stood by, wail ing for her to finish her devotion. Very near half an hour had elapsed since the priest had left her presence, and it was with increasing hope that each moment now passed ; till presently the physician became impatient, jingled his probe and -scalpel together, and at length actually bade her haste. She pleaded, and was again permitted to go on until again interrupted, and again ehe pleaded a moment more ; but he protested and presently bade his assis tants advance with the basin, which was placed beside the bed. Then directing each to lay hold of her frame on either side he seized her arm, and was in the Tery act of reopening the wound, when suddenly the door opened, and in walked not the count as they supposed but a rery gentlemanly sort of a person, all smiles and graces, who excused himself for this intrusion, 8nd then drawing from his pockets three handcuffs, two of which he laid upon the table, the other of which he quietly slipped ;pcntve dumb founded M.

They r.il knew their fate, as they submitted without a murmur. As they were led down the hall, they met their friend the priest, who politely recognized the count with a bow, and then passJ on to the chamber. Here he found the young creature he had thus marvellously rescued from cer tain death. But she was insensible, through a combination of terror, exhaus tion and joy. He as not long, however, in restoring her; and then well, we shall not pause here to describe the cene that ensued, or recapitulate the msny words of thanks and gratitude she poured out upon the worthy priest, who wis, to tell the truth, as happy as she. Suffice it then to say, they parted very good friends, and in a short time after, he officiated at a marriage, where, it was reported by the crowds of Republi cans who so delighted to level all distinc tion, that a sous lieutenant was wedded to a countess of great wealth, and that report, it is unnecessary to say, was true. The count and his companions were incarcerated in the jail, and that is the last that was ever known of them. Hence it will be seen how rapid and eure were the French police, who with no other clue than a bit of blood stained bandage in the door-way of a house somewhere within the limits of Paris, succeeded in the short space of half an hoar, in ferreting out and bringing the offenders of the law to its tribunal. At Placervills, a Methodist minister Trent to a tin shop to buy a blowinghorn. Selecting one, he asked the clerk wheth er it would make a loud noise, 'Oh, yes." said the clerk, " a h 11 of a nois." Well," replied the miniser, 'as I want it to blow at camp meetings, I don't think that kind of a nois will suit," and walked off.

Admitting for argument sake that the Miliiary Governments established in and for the Southern States, are as tyranous as the President, the Democrats, and the Rebels represent them to be, still we have no sympathy for the unrepented rebels, whose conduct has made such ffovernment necessary. onsrress is willing, and more than anxious that the men ot tne Doutn may nave uovern ments of their own formation, eo they are republican in form, and give prom ise, ever so slightly of remaining loyal to the union. We then say that if the present government in the rebel States is obnoxious, galling, or intolerant, the conditions on which the citizens of the South may change it for cne more suita ble, are so wisa, lenient, and just, that if they will not comply therewith, will not "look and live will not accept the sit uation ; or will not come back into the Union upon terms of loyalty to the Gov ernment, and injustice to none of its subjects; in other words, if they are determined not to be reconstructed, un- ess upon their own terras, then we most pmphatically say that their appeals to the national Congress to save them from the 'dominion of an alien and inferior race" will not reach the Republican heart. Democrats may rain tears of sorrow sorrow, not because they are badly gov erned, but because the present milita ry Governments, and because any re constructed governments likely to be ac ceptable to the country, would be alike unavailable for the trusts and uses of the Democratic party. Men true to the Union, to the Government, and to the fu ture good and prosperity of the country, are not likely to care whether the Dem ocratic policy is sustained or ruined, so that the best interest and good faith of the nation is cared for, and untarnished in the reconstruction of the country". The Republicans are men who are above mere party considerations. Men who left the ranks of the Democracy, the Whig, the Abolitionists, and have united on a common platform for the country's good. They are statesmen. who have no party interest to subserve, so that the beloved country is at peace, prosperous, united and happy. So long as such men have the controlling power in the land, the nation will rest content ed, it is only the fear that they may be undermined and their power usurped by the active and zealous place hunters and demagogues of the counliy, that renders the affairs of the government unstable or uncertain. It then behooves every true lover of his country, every well wisher of his country's good, to be ac tive, walchful, and vigilant, to see that the power of the Republican party is un trammelled by irreligious, dissipated, and unprincipled leader.

Tipton, Hewett & Church, on the evening of March 26th, for the purpose of nomi nating candidates for ihe various corpo ration offices of this city. The County Central Committee at their last meeting, also recommended the nomination and election of Republi can candidates for every office in the gift of the people.-; . .. : We hope every Republican within the corporation will attend the Convention, and not only attend, but express his views with regard to the policy to be pursued, and if the Convention decides to make nominations, let each man state his preferences for the men to be selec ted. The Convention should present a good ticket. Do not sit quietly and see bad nomination made, either through modesty, or the fear of hurting some body's feelings. No man should be cho sen merely because somebody presents his name. Each nomination should be well considered. The selection of good officers is very important. Experience for ten or twelve years past, has shown our citizens that it is sometimes difficult to procure suitable persons to fill teveral of the offices especially marshall and mayor. No city office is now so trivial, a3 to render it immaterial who fills it. It is difficult to say which office will not during, the year become the most impor tant. The interests of Rrownville are be coming of more and -more . importance every year. The future of our city may be vastly affected by the policy of our City Council, hence the importance cf selecting men of energy, experience and ability cautious and economical, yet free from timid old fogyism. Even the prosperity and business f Brownville the coming summer may be much influ enced by the action of the Council far more than most people imagine. It is more important this season than usual that Republicans, where they are in the majority, should carry their mu luupai eiemuus. mis is uie year oi a -1 tl:. .i. - e I very important residential election, and republicans should keep up their party organization ; a custom of the Democracy ,rtr,0 of JmifaMnnlW loxra moir,- 7 J J . tain n tnnrniifTn nrrrnnirnttrin Thpw mjnr b b j ' advocate a mixed or "people S ticket, . . ... ..i where they are in the minoritv, but, who ever heard of such a thine where thev , , T.t, , i.l tt-nrfl in he mi.iri!B t IV nuro Ihatr hart I the power, tney never voted lor a poiiti 1 cal opponent, even for supervisor or con stable, ihe liepublicans, as a party never cared so much for party success It is owing principally to this apathy that the Democrats are enbled to claim elections 'a a few Republican towns in New York, this Spring.

Proceedings on Impeachment. Wasiiiwgton, March 13. Early this morning Washington as sumed that active, excited appearance for wrhich it was so noted during the re cent war, when the city was hourly an ticipating an attack from the rtbel hosts. Notwithstanding the fact was well known that no person would be admitted to the Senate without a ticket, it served not to keep multitudes from hastening there with very faint hopes of obtaining an en trance. The doors of the Senate wing of the Capitol were thrown open at eleven o'clock, and throngs of people hastened through the halls, corridors and galleries. The police arrangements were excellent and the scene was not marked with those violent demonstrations so often witnessed at the Capitol. At 13 o'clock, when the Senata was called to order, not twenty Senators were at their desks, while the galleries were clmost entirely filled, with the excepiion of the diplomatic gallery. It was notice able that no colored people were admitt ed into the galleries, and two thirds of the others present were lacjies, but few gentlemen being fortunate enough to ob tain tickets, At one o clock senator Wade vacated the President's chair and Chief Justice Chase, entering by a rear door, ascended the steps and took posses sion. After the SergeanNat-Arms had made proclamation, Mr. Howard moved the House of Representaives be notified that the trial was about to commence. The Journal was then read by the Sec retary of the Senate. The chamber be came very still, and the scene was solemn and impressive, the occupants cf the galleries leaning forward to catch every word uttered, At a few minutes past one the front door of the Senate Chamber was opened, and the Board cf Managers, with the ex- ception of Messrs. Butler, entered slowly and took their teats around the table to the left of the Chif Justice set aside for them. Then came the House of Representives, who likewise took seats to the rear of the Senators. By direction of the Chief Justice the roll was then called, and those Senator; who were absent on the organization of the Court were sworn in, including Gen. Vickers, of Maryland. After all the Senators had taken tha oath, the Sergent- at-Arms, by direction, called in a loud voice "Andrew Johnson," the accused, three times without any response, how ever, being given. On motion, his counsel were then noti fied to appsar, and tbey did so, being Henry Stanberry, Judge Nelson, of Ten nessee, and Judge Curtis, of Massachu setts. They look thair seats at the table assigned them. Judge Stanberry, amid Drofound si- Ience, said that he, by direction of the President, was engaged as counsel He lhen read a statement from Mr. Johnson .V. nt ln.cl fn.(n A .IJ U 1 .

Mr. Stanberry expressed great surp rise at this claim put forward by tha Managers, saying there seemed to be a disposition to hurry thro1 this momentous trial a3 if it were a case before a police court; he argued from the working of the other rules that the appearance day was not intended to be the day for answering and trial day. He said two of the Pres ident's counsel were not present; that no apportunity had been offered for the preparations of a defense or call of witnesses: and that in the worst days of the Star Chamber such attempt to hurry through a trial had never been made He spuke very warmly, saying- there seems to-have been a trap set for the President and his counsel. Mr. Batler asked to be heard on be half of the managers, and asked why railroad speed should not e used on this trial. He contended that the rules and precedents of ordinary courts were not applicable to this trial. In ordinary trials no dangers, resulted from deloyjin this case the necessity for prompt action was pres sing, and the respondent at the Bar con trolled the power of the nation, and might in any moment of passion, prejudice or wrong, use it for the injury and ruin of the country. The business of the War Department would stop until the result of this trial was reached. The pulse of the ration beats in perturbation while this trial goes on; he claimed an early day should be fixed on for the defendant's appearance, and if then he can show that he has not had lime to prepare, grant him the indulgence of farther time. We, on the part of the House of Rep resentatives, which we are here repres enting, ask that the rule adopted by the Senate for the government of this cass, may be observed, and it is for the Senate to say whether it shall be changed ; but. standing as a rule at this time, we ask ta enforcement. After an hours discussion, the Senate rmc! for deliberation, which resulted in n lcfur.il u recirid ihe rule, and the CM-'' ,r u --1 announced an order that i Hi" j iv;'J''jit Li; rt'i'iiiireu to n hia ans- ! - n Mwit.Ly ilit; k2o'd of March.

It is positively known that spras of the Presidents connsel were both greatly sur prised and very much discouraged by the temper of the Senate regarding the ap plication for continuance. It appears that Mr. Johnson and those immediately around him had great confidence that enough Republicans would go with the Democrats to secure all the time that he asked. Up to Friday evening he had hopes of delay, but after the action of the Senate was made known to him he lost hope and became despondent. The greatest possible effort will be made to gain time. new -mmnwEsm Election Proclamation.
