Tas Wons or RECONSTRUCTION. —
Phe events of the past few days have
given the work of reconstruction
_ upon the Congressional plai a new
Btart and—the Radical party has now
more friends among the people than at
anytime since Johnsen became Presi, gress and the determined opposition of
. the President until he found Congress
-‘wasin earnest, served to make them
friends of loyalty. The President’s
sneaking message,in which he attempts
. te crawl ont of the difficulty in which
he had placed himself, shook the con-____ fidence of his admirers, and he now ocgupies the position of a man fearing
the consequences of his own work,
ae It is very probable that he will here_ _ after cease to be an obstacle in the way
of the unity and harmony of the country, andthe unreconstructed rebels,
_ finding themselves deserted by the
President will quietly submit to the
plan of Congress and help forward the
work in their section,
Had it not been for the course of Johnson, undoubtedly every rebel State
would have been represented in Con' gress before this time. He has nourished the rebellion and attempted to keep
_. .plive the jealousies that existed, de-~siring to ride upon the curent into
popularity. He has failed in this, and
his failure is the triumph of liberty and
the right. He has served his purpose.
The loyal men after the fall of Rich~ mond fancied the country saved and
"took it for granted there would be no
imore trouble. The fact that Johnson
would have plunged the country in war
if he could have secured the co-operation of the army or.any part of it, has
unearthed his design and opened the
eyes of loyal men so that they fully
somprehend the crisis through which
the country is passing. The way is
now open to complete triumph, and if
__. Joyal men are true to themselves, free
Republican government will pierced
in the approaching contest.
THE IurEAGHMENT.—The House
Committee have reported ten articles
of impeachment. In addition to the
points already given, they charge the
President with tampering with a General of Department to induce him to
_._ treat. a law of Congress. as unconstitutional and to use force in violation of
said laws. ‘The Committee reserves
the right te present other articles.—
The House was to vote upon the resolutions yesterday. A committee of the
best lawyers in the House has been ap~
pointed to conduct the case in the Senate, as follows: Thad, Stevens, Butler,
‘Bingham, Williams of Pennsylvania,
Wilson of Iowa, Boutwell and General
Logan.
Dinty Wor«.—The Democratic
members defeated a vote on the resolutions indorsing Congress, by leaving
the Senate without a quorum er refusing to vote, after a windy speech
. against time by Johnson. Their friends
ag)
Brownlow brought them to time. The
Senators who engaged in the dirty work
on Saturday are a part of the material
which disgrace. our legislative assen—
THE cup and chest of.Alexander Selkirk, the world~famed Robinson Crusoe
of Defoe, has now become the property
of Mr. James Hutchison, of the Seotch
Warehouse, 48 Warwick street, London. These interesting relics have up
to this time remained in the possession
of Selkirk’s descendants at Lado, Fife,
where he was.born, The cup was put
upon a stale and mounted with -silver

cocoanut, and rudely carved. The chest

performed their daties well as a general
thing, and the new ones come with the
confidence of the people, as expressed
in their election. All the bonds were
filed and accepted by the proper authority, with the exception of Public Ad

In Prospect.—In addition to the
announcement of coming amusements,
which we have copied, in another place,
from the TRANSCRIPT, says the Grass
Valley. Union, we'hearthat Miss Emilie
Melville will make the tour cf the inte‘rior of the State, taking Grass Valley
and Nevada in her way. She is said to
be the most finished artiste, in the line
of characters she performs, who has yet
made her appearance in California. As
2 vocalist she has won plaudits from
the San Franciscans and the most unstinted praise from the press of that
city.
SuPrERvisors.—The Board of. Supervisors were yesterday engaged in examining the report of District Attorney
Caldwell upon Delinquent Taxes. As
the report includes the-business of the
entire term it requires some time to go
through with it. So far as examined it
was found correct, and it proves ‘that
this branch of business, so often neg>{
lected, was well performed by the outgoing officer. ae
Store RosBpepD.—On Saturday night
the store of Wm. Wolf, on Main street,
was entered, and the money. drawer,
containing about $12 in coin, was carried off. Mr. Wolf locked up his shop
and left the gas burning low while he
went across the street to get shaved.—
He was absent only twenty minutes,
during which time the robbery was
committed. The rogue was evidently
well posted about the premises.
THe AmMounT.—Each new officer
yesterday subscribed five dollars for
the Nevada Benevolent Society, making
in all $75.
