Th9 observing traveler through this
district will note with evident interest
the hedge fence in all na stages of
growth, and ihe extended and extending
preparations to encircle quarter section
tfter quarter section cf uncultivated
prairie with ihe best of all live fence,
This is emphatically a prairie country,
and ihe climate of this latitude being so
favorable to lhe growth and durabiliy of
th.8 hedge plant, it disarms ihis State of
the great dread all northern and eastern
men have of settling on broad prairies,
miles from timber, when ihey are made
to feel lhat no timber is needed for fen'c-
ing. Three years enly sufikes to make
a gcod fence, and seventy-five cents is
estimated as the entire cost of each mA.
There is a gcod and substantial sus-
pEnsica bridge ever the Big Nemaha
river near Tecumseh, end the citizens of
this town g've the citizens cf Brownville

agricultural aiid stock raising country.
The town site is a good one, and the
place must prosper. M. W. & R. Cook
have a large stock cf goods here, and they
supply the country north and west for
twenty miles, with such articles as are
demanded, as cheaply as at any other
point. We alsa noticed that the mill
yard belonging to A. J. Fassing was
well filled wiih good saw logs, which he
was fast convening into good lumber.
As this is tbe only saw mill between the
Nemaha river and the Big Blue river, it
evidently. must be a paying institution
All things considered Vesta has an air
of thrift and vigor which betokens enter
prise and progress. The people here
appreciate the good qualities of the Jld'

First and foremost we need inrreased

before our mail reaches them. Now,
this is intolerable, and needs doctoring

Impeachment.
"v7asmxGTOX, March 30: -Gen. Buttler com
menced bis opening speech before the court of Im
peachment at a quarter to one. He reviewd the
impeachment trials cf other countries in order to
show in the light of those precedantj what really
constitutes impeachable offences, ne defined im
peachable high crime or misdemeanors to be acts
overt in their nature or consequences', subversion of
some fundamental or essential principle of the Gov
ernmant, or highly prejudicial to the public inter
est, consisting of a violation of the constitution, of
law cf an "omtil oath, of duty or of abuse of dis
cretionary powers from improper motives, or for im
proper purposes. He referred to tbe impeachment
of Lord Dolby, in which the judgments was that the
Executire Administration was subordinate in ail
great matters of policy to the superintendence or
crontrol of the two non?es of Parliament. He said
the people thought their Representatives had joined
issues with the President as to bis riht to act as
he has. He discussed at some length the power of
removals, and gave the early opinions and practice
upon the subject, all of which were against the
President's position.
Mr. Butler cited further acts cf Congress in sup
port cf his position, and after stating the events of
February last, the romoval of Mr. Stanton and ap
pointment of Thomas, and the interview with Gen.
Emory. Ho concluded his argum;nt a3 follows :
Who docs not knowtbat from the hour the Presi
dent began bis usurpation of power, he everywhere
donounccd Congress, the legality and constitution
ality of its actions, and defied its legitimate power,
and for that purpose announced bis intention and
carried out his purpose as far as he was able, of re
moving every true man from office who sustained
the Congress cf the United States; and it is to
carry out this plan cf action that he claims the un
limited power of removal, for the illegal use of
which he stands before you this day. The respon
sibility is with you. The safegards of the Consti
tution, against usurpation, aro in your bands. The
House of Representatives has done ita duty. We
have presents! tbe facts in a constitutional man
ner, we have brought a criminal to your bar and
demanded judgment ai your hands for bis so great
crimes. Never again, if Andrew Johnson go quiet
and free this day, can the people of this or any
other country, by constitutional checks and guards,
stay the usurpations of an Executive power. I speak
therefore, not language of exaggeration, but the
words of truth and soberness, in saying that the fu
ture political welfare and liberties cf all met,
han trembling on tbe decision cf tbe hour.
Mr. Wilson then offered in evidence certifiel
copies of the oath of oSce of President Johnson, of
the appointment of Sccretaiy Stanton by Prcsi-
iient Lincoln, and of the ratificatien of said nom
ination, of Mr. Johnson's communication to the
Senate, as igning reasons for suspension of the
Secretary of War, after which the Com t adjourn
ed to. twelve to-morrow , and the Chief Justice va
cated the chair. The president, pro tern, called the
Senate to order. The report of the Committee cf

It will be seen by reference to the
biii published to-day, that there is now
full authority given for extending the
line cf railroad from West Quincy via
Canton, lo the Missouri river, at Brown
ville, and all. that is needed fer the sue
cess of this great, enterprise, is a mani
fet'aticriJef liberality on the fart cf the
people who are to be benefitted by the
prosecution cf the work. President
Davis visited Quincy last wsek, and
after consultation with leading men, it
was resolved to call a mass meeting on
Saturday next, for lhe purpose ol consid
ering tbe propriety of recomroeiding a
municipal subscription cT SlOO.rjOO, to
be expended on the first fifty-five miles
cf the road. We have no doubt that this
will be carried with very little opposition;
nud it is now time for Canton and la
Grange to lake hold of ihe matter i
earnest, and render all needful assistance.
We telieve LaGrange some time ago
premised, ihruugh its official head, to
grade and lie ihe road between thai point
and Wesi Quincy, and we hope lo see
lhat premise verified in early and effi
cient action. Canton having virtually
cancelled ihe bulk of her former bonds,
is now in a position lo renew her sub
scription, and we hope to see these once
rival towns join in an enterprise thai
will unite them in iron bands and carry
them boih forward in the path of true
progress, until iheir consolidated corpo

THE VERY LATEST.
SECRET SESSION OF THE SENATE.
AN IMPORTANT DECISION
Chicago, April 1.
The Republican gives a full report cf
the proceedings of the secret session of
lhe Senate. The discussion was as to
the powers of lhe Chief Justice, and was
participated in by most of the benators
Ferry held lhat the Chief Justice had
the right of Vice-President had a cast
ing vote in case of a tie ; but had no right
to decide law points.
Conklin thought he neither had a
right to vote cr to decide law points, or
other points except pomt3 of order.
Sherman offered a resolution that un
der the rules the Chief Justice had no
right to decide law points. That this
right is vested exclusively ia the Senate
Upon this resolution an interesting de
bate sprung up, in which a majority cf
the Senators engaged. There appeared
to be a great diversity of opinion among
benators on this question.
The Chief Justice made a very good
tempered personal explanation of his
views regarding his position while pre
siuiug over iue court ol lmpeacuiuuLii.
j: .i. . c t i .
He was of lhe opinion lhat he was
clothed with certain powers as Chief
Justice, even when presiding over the
Senate as a Court of Impeachment.
Williams,Bayard and several other Sen
ators, maintained that the position of the
Chief Justice was correct. The Consti
tution was so framed lhat the Senate
might have the benefit of the suggestion
of the highest law officer cf the Govern
mem ; bui he admitted he had no judicial
authority, only advisory powers. Great
difference cf opinion prevailed.
Henderson moved lo lay Sherman's
resolution on the table. Motion carried
He ihen moved an amendment to tbe
Senate rule, that ihe presiding office rule
on all questions of admisibility of evi
dence, unless some member ask lhat the
question be submitted to tb.3 Senate for
decision, which shall thsu be done.
Sumner offered an amendment, setting
forth that the Chief Justice was not in
fact a member cf the Court of Impeach
ment, and nad no right to vote upon
any question; upon which the ayes and
nays were called which resulted ayes 22
nay 3 2o.
The question then recurred on Hen
derson's motion, which carried 2-5 to 19
The question whether the Chief Jus
tice had a right to vote, will be again
resumed to morrow. There appears to
be a considerable feeling upon the sub
ject.
Some Senators think the action giving
the Chief Justice lhe powers he now has
under the 7th rule, will be reversed.
The court returned to the Senate
Chambers at 6-31, and announced the
result of deliberations, which produced a
shade of disappointment on the part cf
the Radicals. The action virtually sus
tains the views cf the Chief Justice.
The court immediately adiourned un
til to-mcrrov.
