NEVADA oats. CALIFORNA
SATURDAY, MAY 16,1868.
A
Tue Jury.—The jury will be called
to-day and the votes of Senators recorded for or against sustaining the charges
made by the House of Representatives
against Johnson; Jt will mot be uninteresting toknow how the Senate is
--gonstituted. Of the fifty-four members
of the Senate, forty-two are Republicans and twelve Democrats. Thirtysix votes will sustain the charges and’
therefore six Republicans may vote
against impeachment without defeating
a verdict. Among the doubtful Republicans some six or eight have been mentioned. Fessenden, Trumbull and
Grimes have taken ground against it,
and are probably so far committed that .
’ they will not vote for any of the articles. .
The Democrats have all through the
trial acted: as partizans and not as
judges. Even when the testimony
was being given,they showed by speechae es.and votes that before_the evidence
was given they had determined upon
a course of action, while on the other
hand the Republican Senators dealt impartially in the matter, excluding all
evidence of a questionable character
and giving the counsel for the President every opportanity to vindicate him
if it were possible. It may therefore
-—be concluded that. the Democrats will
vote as partizans and not as jurors in
Law existed and had been violated b
the Prosident, even under plea of test
ing ite constitutionality, with the evidence now before the Senate in the
case of the Tenure of Office Law, every
Democratic vote could be counted on
for impeachment. The President has
only violated a law of the Rump Congress and of course he will be sustained
by the Democracy. 1t will therefore
require seven Republican votes to clear
him and these we do not believe can
be gained. The evidence in the case of
the removal of Stanton and appointment of Thomas is so clear that the
charge must be sustained unless Senators are false to their records. If the
Tenure of Office Law doesnot apply to
the Cabinet as some of the Republicans
claim, then the President is guilty of
appointing an officer during the session of the Senate without its concurrence, in violation ofa law which has
been in force for years and he ought to
be adjudged guilty. If the Tenure of
Office Law does apply, as he has himself held, then he is equally guilty and
should be removed. If the Senators.
the case. But if the Fugitive ot
_ dose this opportunity to rid the nation
of a dangerous and despotic ruler, they
. will ‘be held accountable by the country for the evils which will follow. It
is not likely that Johnson, after being
cleared, will remain inactive. He will
soon have control of the War Departmeat and will continue to set aside the
laws of Congress in defiance of the will
of the people. The decision of the Senate to-day will tell for good or evil oP
‘on the future of the wong:
Was Ir Poison %—The sudden and
violent illness of three Republican Sen{
ators on the eve of the vote upon im_ peachment, has aroused the suspicion
that they were poisoned. The parties
affected in this way are Senators Grimes,
“Howard and Conkling. The first has
declared for acquittal, and the others
were for conviction, The symptoms
-‘were alike in the three cases, enly
that Grimes was not so severely affect
ed as the others. It is said foul play
was apprehended and the Senators
were cautioned against drinking ont of
pitchers in the Capitol The diabolical .
spirit of the Johuson party indicates
that they are capable of any infamy.
PEANUTS.—We hear, says the Sacramento Bee, that this crop, which
grows 80 luxuriently along the banks
of the Sacramento, and which has been.
cultivated with profit, is not likely to
amount to much this year, because the
land has been too wet for cultivation,
and therefore but small 5 cama have
been sowed,
THe MvcrpERER.—Ex-Sheriff J. C
] Glark arrived if this dity yesterday
morning from San Fran¢isco, says the
Virginia Enterprise of the 14th, bringing with him Eugene Lefevre, the
Canadian Frenchman who some two
years since killed a German on a wood
ranch north of this city by stabbing him
with a sheath-knife while at dinner,
merely because the German said that he
talked more than he worked, and the
. man who inflicted injuries upon Jailor
Gregory in making his escape from the
county jail which resulted in Gregory’s
death some seven days after. Mr. Glark
found Lefevre in the California State
Prison, to which he was sent from Calaveras county in 1867, for an assault
with intent to kill. Theterm for which
he was sentenced had almost expired,
not two days of his time yet remaining,
when Mr, Clark recognized him. He
knew Mr. Clark the moment he saw
him and attempted to dodge out of
it. Finding at last that it was uselens $0 ay.de bide Gn ainonh bie tats he
acknowledged that he was the Eugene
Lefevre who broke jail in this city—he
was sentenced in Calaveras county under the name of Jules Dana. Mr. Clark
then told him that ho was going to take
him back to Storey county, when he
quickly said: “You can’t do anything
with me for killing old man Gregory—
. he didn’t die soon enough after he was
injured.” Mr. Clark told him that he
thought something could be done with
him for thé deed, but first he had the
killing of the German to answer for.
He then said: “Well, take, me where
you please and do with me what you
please. I-have never had anypeace
since I have been here. I knew that
you would come at last.” He said that
during ull the time of his confinement
in the prison he had suffered terribly
from fear, and was always expecting
Clark to come and find him out. Whenever he saw a party of Strangers coming he thought Clark was one of the
namber, and tried to hide himself._He}
said he-never felt safe for a moment .
. exeept when locked in his cell or: shut
“up by-himeelf ina room. He said that
in case Mr. Clark had not come and discovered him, it was his intention, upon
being set at liberty, to have gone to
Mexico, thence to Texas and from there
to have made his way home to Canada.
Mr. Clark has never ceased to keep a
. bright look-out for Lefevre, and was
determined, cost what it might, to capture and bring him back if he ever
caught sight of him. This determination and watchfulness Lefevre seems to
have constantly felt and dreaded. It
has been so long since the murder of the
German that it will now perhaps be a
difficult matter to find the wood choppers who were witnesses to it, yet for
aught we know they may still be in
this vicinity—it will be hard for him
to escape from both of his bloody deeds.
A Pre Fieut.—Yesterday morning @ couple of individuals under the
influence of fighting whiskey retired to
Prospect Hill, beyond the corporation
line, for the purpose of testing each
others fighting qualities. They fought
about three rounds, throwing out their
“feelers” after each others “peepers” in
the most approved style of the ring, At
the end of the third round one of the
parties failed to come to time, and
“threw up the sponge,” so to speak.
Some “claret” flowed, but neither party
got half as badly punished as he ought
to have been.
Coming Bacx.—A bill has_ passed . ?
the House of Representatives by a vote
gia, Louisiana, North and South Carolina to the Union, and for the admission
of their representatives to seats in Congress. The work of reconstruction goes
bravely on.
#
THERE are rumors to the effect that
two Republican Senators have sold out
on the impeachment for large sums of
money. ‘The managers are investigating the charges, and if established, the
Senators will probably lose their votes
as well as their seats.
