THE MKAt'TMiN CONTINDKM.
It i8 stated by our NCw England Demo
crat ie exchanges that the political campaign
in New Hampshire is progressing With
great vigor. Many of the Democratic meet
ings are largely officered by accessions Irom
the Republican party, and 4he Statf> was
never before bo aroused. The advices are
to the effect that Mr. Binclair, the Demo
cratic nominees will be eleeted by two thou
sand majority. . • > \
From this we irifer that even the New
Englanders are becoming tired of the cry of
“Nigger, Nigger,” and want to see-their
representatives both State and National do
something else than vociferate, legislate and
appropriate money to the blacks for political
purposes. A people beginning Co feel the
pangs of hunger, are apt to look more to
ward their own relief than to the pam
pering and feeding of an indolent class of
negro os thrown upon the government by
Radical measures of reconstruction. The
New England mechanics themselves need
the assistance Congress is giving to the
African, aud they will deinaud it of their
representatives. Want swallowing up
politics and the bitter animosity to the
South, will succumb to the pinching, of the
stomaoh. We think that we can live in the
8>uth yet.
It is noticeable, .too, that notwithstanding
the arraignment of the Chief Magistrate oi
the nation to au«vver a groundless charge of
maladministration of office, the tinauces and
trade of the oountry have not been deranged
thereby. It was natural to suppose that si)
violent a proceeding in our national councils
would tend to aggravate the present unfavor
able prospects u£. trade. But it seems that
these fears will prove groundless, and that
no appreciable effect in this, respect will bt
experienced. The nation has passed through
so many trying scenes withia the past few
years, in which its liuancitfl interests have
been greatly jeopardized, that an event oi
this character, however extraordinary, and
calculated to excite public attention, Will not
of itself, it is believed, under the circunstnn
ccs, be likely to seriously affect its material
affairs. It is true, sadly true, that we of the
South, are bankrupt, in a measure, and can
not indulge in luxuries; but we have bread
for our children, and with tbs flag of hope
flying at the prow, Wo expeot to weather the
troubled seas of political- strife and despot
ism, and got safely into the harbor at last.
Departure ot tt'erge.ant Bate*.
At half-past two o'clock yesterday after
noon, Sergeant Bites, dressed in his travel
ling suit of black velvet, and bearing the
flag, came riut of the Lanier House, and
took his departure for Milledgeviile and
Washington. He was accompanied by
Mayor Obear and Colonel Cumpning, and
followed by a large crowd of citizens as far
as the city bridge, and there, finally, through
our Mayor and Chief of Police, took leave
of us. He was given a letter of introduction
to Colonel Pitts, on the Milledgeviile road,
where he designed stopping last night.
Two or three hundred people assembled
to see him leave, but there wi t bo noise or
demonstration, but all present wished the
Sergeant a sqfe journey, and hoped that he
would always cherish pleasant recollections
of the South aud the Southern people.
We copy the above from the Macon Mes
senger, of the 5th instant. The friendly re
ception of’ Sergeant Bates and his flag at
Macon fs but a repetition of* what he haa
met at every foot of his march from Vicks
burg to that, place. He haa carried the
United States flag through three Sontbarn
States, and Up to this time has met only
friendly greetings, free board and lodging,
and God speeds from the people. The New
York journal of Commerce noticing this re
markable jonmey, calls attention to the fact
that had the flag or the bearer anywhere
been insulted; it would surely have been her
alded by a dozen special correspondents,
who would have been delighted to telegraph
to their Radical employers bo capital a 4exi
for thrilling editorials. It declares that
Sergeant Bates, with his flag, is a living and
moving refutation- of that spirit, of slander
which denies to tiro vanquished inhabitauts
of the South any respeot for the Union.
They will not bend their necks to the yoke
of negro Buffi age, but they are no more re
luctant to admit the politioai and social
equality of the black man than the 'North*
cruets generally are.
UUhop Bee It wills.
We take from the New Orleaaa Picayune
of the 28th ult., the following description oi
what transpired in TriniiyChurch on the
occasion uf the* farewell of Rev. Dr. Beck
with who' has accepted the position of
Bishop of this Diocese:
There was a sadness in Trinity Church
yesterday. At the tiuiuofgivjug out the no
tices, the pastor, the RcV. Dr. Beckwith,
announced what lma so generally become
knowD, his proximate departure, to be in
vested with the mitre in Georgia. He said
it would be impossible for him topreach to
them a farewell sermon; his,.heart waa too
full, and words were too inadequateior this.
He had struggled against leaving them.
Twice he had. refused; but the Standing
Committee of Georgia, to whom the matter
had been referred by the Convention of that
Diocese, had refused to -accept a denial.
When he left here last summer, it was upon
the express command of his physician, who
alio assured litfu that he could never With
safety remain during the hot months in New
Orleans. A number of the Bishops had
written him letters while he was at New
York, urging strenuously upon him the ac
ceptance of the see of Georgia. His heart

FROM WASHINGTON.
die Cat*, Ac.
Washington, March 6.—Mr. Dudley Field
in arguing the .McCardle case took the
ground that Aha preambles to the recon
struction acts are false, hence the extreme
measures are unnecessary as well as uncon
stitutional. The speech is much praised.
Senate.—The Secretary of the Treasury,
waa asked, fox information relative to the
disposition of the $800,000 in the hands of
Colonel Hallabird, Chief Quartermaster of
the Department of the Gull, accruing from
captured and abandoned property.
At 1 o’ciook'Chief Justice Chase entered
and called the Senate to order. The journal
of yesterday’s impeachment proceedings
was read.* The Chief Justice announced
that> the first business before the Court was
a motion to postpone Senator Wade's swear
ing bntil die other Senators were sworn,
Mr. Dixon commenced speaking, when
Mr. Drake called hint to order under the
procedure rules.
The Chief Justice decided that the pro
cedure rules could only apply after the Court
was organized.
Mr. Drake appealed from the decision, but
the Chief Justice was sustained by the fol
lowing vote:
Yeas—Anthony, Buckalew, Corbett,Davis,
Dixon, Fessenden, Fowler, Frelingliuyseu,
Grimes, Henderson, Hendricks, Johnson,
McCreery, Morrill of Maine, Norton? Fat
tersoD, of Tennessee, Pomeroy, Ross, Salis
bury, Sherman, Sprague, Van Wiukle, VYH-
i«y aud Williams—21.
Nays—Cameron, Cattell, Chandler, Cole,
Coukling, Connor, Drake, Feiry, Harlan,
Howard, Morgan*. Morrill of Vermont, Mor
ton. Nye, Stewart, Suihner, Thayer, Tipton,
Wilson and Yates—20. -
Applause followed the announcement of
the vote, which was promptly suppressed.
The deba'e proceeded when Air. lit ndrieks
withdrew hi8 objection and .Wade was
4woru, and the organization, of the Court
was completed.
Reverdy Johnson alone took the oath
upon a bible, which he called for. Other
Senators simply held up their hand.
Mr. Howard moved to inform the man
agers that the Court was organized.
The Chief Justice said belore putting that
question to the Senate he thonght it his
duty to submit to the Senate the rul«9 of pro
cedure. Iu the judgment of the Chief Jus
tice the Senate is now organized as a distinct
body from the Senate sitting in its legisla
tive capacity. It performs a distinct func
tion, the members are under a different oath,,
and the presiding officer is not the Presi
dent pro tampore, but the Chief Justice of the
United States. Uuder these circumstances
.the chair concurs in (he opinion that the
rules adopted by the Senate in its legislative
capacity are not hole* for the government
of the Senate sitting for the trial of
impeachment unless they lie also adopted by
that body. Iu this judgment of the Chair it
it be erroneous he desires to be corrected by
the judgment of the Court. Therefore if it
be permitted, he will take the sense of
the house on this question, whether the
rules adopted on the 2d of March shall be
considered as the rules for the. government
of the proceedings of this body. The Senate
responded ay© and the Chief Justice said:
“Then these rules will be considered the
rules of this body.” The managers then en
tered and at their instance, on motion, a
summons was issued to the President, re
turnable on Friday the 13th instant, to which
day the Court adjourned.
Senator Wade then took the Chair and af
ter a short legislative session the Senate
went into executive session and adjourned
to Monday.
House.—The general business to-day was
unimportant.
The impeachment managers are allowed
to sit duriDg the sessions, to pend for per-
soos and papers and examine witnesses uu
der oath.
The debt statement shows a decrease of
the public debt, and leas cash in the Treasu
ry by $7,500,000 ; coin in the Treasury,
$115,500,000; currency, $21,750,000. The
amount of Revenue Receipts to-day was
$500,000.
There was a very short Cabinet session
to-day, all being present except the Secre
tary of War.
Air. Vickers, elected Senator from Mary
land, was an officer in the Union army.
The House to-day passed a bill modifying
the iron-clad oath, to bo taken by persons
from whom political disabilities arc removed
by act of Co igress.
In consequence j»f the absence of Chief
Justice Chuse Irom the bench ot the Su
preme bench to-day, the McCardle case was
passed ever till Monday.
It is stated that the President said last
night that- General Hancock would not be
relieved. #
Iq a whiskey revenue raid in Claybourne
county, Tennessee, thrpe men were killed.
A company of cavalry is eft rente to aid the

New,Orleans, March 6 —The city cur
rency has again declined, few bankers buy
at 2d per cent and tnost of them decline to
purchase on any terms, A card is published
to the effect that the venders in the mar
kets. will wholly refuse to take it as currency
after 10th inst. There is a general distrust
owing to General Grant’s action In re-in
stating the deposed city officials. This
evening’s Picayune has a caustic editorial
upon the partisanship in Grant’s late action
with regard to the municipal government of
this city. . . .
In the Convention to-day a resolution ap
proving the impeachment of President John
son was offered and laid over.
A resolution was offered by Cromwell to
the effect that, as the presence of Jefferson
Davis, the arch traitor, Ac., was detrimental
to peace and order, he be notified to leave
this State within twenty-four hours. The
resolution caused considerable indignation.
Mr. Blackburn said it was barbarism to order
Mr. Davis, who is now in one sense jn
shackles and a prisoner, out of the State.
He said he regarded him personally as a
brave and candid man, but.politically a trai
tor, and moved that the resolution be re
turned to the delegate from whom il ema
nated. His motion was carried by a vote of
55 to 5. ,
A resolution was adopted that no member
lie elected a Registrar who is a candidate
for any office uuder the Constitution.

Theodore Tilton does not wish the
Radicals to admit Alabama, because the re
cent election there has demonstrated that a
majority of the registered voters are against
them and so they cannot rely upop the sup
port of Alabama for any great leugth of
time, in aid of their nofarions schemes. He
says: “Congress wants the loyal vote, of a
rebel State whose loyalists outnumber Its
rebels;” that is, the exigencies of tbs Radical
party require more Radical votes in Con
gress to overoome. the gains constantly being
made by the Conservatives of the North,
and as Alabama cannot, much to their die
appointment, be relied opoft, he proposes
that they leave Alabama “oot in the cold,”
