HEKALD.]
Washington, May 7, 18C8.
Ur. Biugbam concluded his windy oration
yesterday* having travelled over the dozen
articles of impeachment a dozen times or
mi ,re, and presenting the weakest and most
superficial argument ever delivered in any
gtval public trial. It was the merest frotb,
au il cannot be dignified by the name of ar
gument. One point only he made yesterday
j. n0 tic^able—he defended the alien and se
dition laws of tbe elder Adams, which no
one would have done excepting Bingham.-
Bit with tbe conclusion of that speech the
discussion of the impeachment ended. The
evidence was all in the arguments delivered,
&ni it only remains tor the Court to render
itu verdict. Before I speak of what has
since transpired, some reference should be
made to the disorderly conduct in the galle
ries yesterday. They were literally packed,
hundreds of persons in excess of the accom
modations being present. As it was under
stood only a certain number of tickets were
printed lor distribution, it is naturally en
quired “why so many more were present.”
It is quite easily explained. The impeachere
bad determined to have a popular expression,
aud extra tickets were issued aud ail sorts of
people admitted tor that one purpose. And
tbeclaquers did their duty well; they were
numerous if not respectable, and with their
manifestation of approval of Bingham’s
speech, such as clapping hands and shouts,
a ••.scene’’ was made tbe like of which was
never, perhaps, seen before in- the United
St ites Senate. The result was the crowd,
including tbe diplomatic body and gentle
men ot lue press, were ejected from tue gal
leries. With such scenes as this in the
Senate aud those ia the House of a still more
indecent character. Congress is becoming
so disreputable it is almoet a disgrace to be
a member thereof.
Yesterday and to-day the Senate sitting as
a Court have been deliberating over certain
motions and rules or modification of rules
aud tbe mode of taking the vote on tbe final
issue.
They definitely decided on excluding all
reporters, even the official reporter, but will
allow writtten opinions to be filed. They
adjourned over until Monday when they will
bold the final conference, and on Tuesday
at 12 M. the vote will be taken. There has
been much discussion as to how the vote
Ebould be taken on the lltb article. It is
the production of Mr. Benjamin F. Butler,
wiio has artfully drawn it, so as to com
prise four different counts of alleged infrac
tions of law by the Executive, and the ob
ject was if one count didn’t catch a Sena
tor's vote another would. The question is
still pending but it will be arranged proba
bly so if the President were declared guilty
on that article, thirty six Senators would
have to agree that he was guilty not of one
count in tuat charge, but guilty of each and
all of them. Mr. Butler, like tricksters
often do, has overreached himself in his cun
ning.
The great sensation just now is the re
ported deleclion of beuator Fessenden,
who refuses to become a tool of the conspir
ators. It bus been whispered about for some
days that he was “shaky,'’ but the Radicals
were loth to believe that he would desert
them. In fact, so often has this Senator,
like the rest of their public men, cowered
auil yielded under the parly lash, it was
held neither he nor any other member would
dare oppose a measure declared by their
press and their leading men to be a party
measure. But Fessenden has determined,
it seems, to be admitted to take the leap,
and it is quite certain there are others who
will tollow him. I have reason to believe
this Senator denies that btanton was pro
tected by the Civil-Tenure Bill, and declares
it was su understood by the Senate. In cor
roboration of this report about Mr. Fessen
den in the Senate yesterday, in secret ses
sion, I incidentally alluded to the lact he
had received hundreds of letters, demanding
he should vote for Impeachment, and
many of these letters even threatening him
with violence, assassination, Ac. And
these attempts at coercion are not confined’
to the people alone, tor, said the Senator,
this sort ot thing has been endorsed in this
Senate. A Senator asked Senator Fessen
den it any Senator had been guilty of such
conduct. He replied “no,” but added “an
officer ot this body has been guilty of it.”
This is understood to mean Mr. John W.
Forney, of the Chronicle of this feity. The
btnator referred to this matter with so much
deling that it is held he signified his disap
proval ot the measure as well as the sbame-
ffil attempts to infiuence Senators to vote tor
u -. Undoubtedly there is a better feeling at
this time among the Democrats and Conser-
fat ‘?ea than at any period previous; but such
trtraordinary pressure will be brought to
hoar within the four days next, that even
me strongest may succumb. Tbe New York
tribune boldly demands Mr. Johnson’s re-
ffioval, “as a party necessity,” aud adds “if
these Senators do not vote for conviction,
their previous course has been a fraud.” If
i r - Johnson is acquitted, seven of the fol-
ffiwitg Radical Senators must sustain him,
7‘z : Grimes, Fowler, Fessenden, Van
"inkle, Anthony, Sprague, Willey, Tram-:
hull, Heuderson, aud possibly Frelinghuy-
btQ - They are named in the order <of their
Probability,Senator Grimes being considered
, e most certain and Frelinghuysen the
least.
One of the projects to insure the verdict
conviction ia to'force Ben. Wade to
abdicate, and a plan has beeu agreed on
Provided it will have the necessary effect.

Senators, and the proposition is to get him

[From the Philadelphia Age ]
UORIBOGLAH.GAH,
One of Mr. Dickens* inimitable characters is
the lady who leaves her children in rags to
devote herself, entirely, to the Work of a so
ciety engaged in making flannel, jackets for the
little Africans, at a. place within the tropics,
which Dickens calls “Boriboolah-Gah.”
We are reminded of this by a society which
makes known to us its existence in a neatly
printed newspaper, styled The Cretan. It is
published at Boston, and proposes not only to
raise money, but to obtain political action for-
the cause of Crete--tfie island in the Mediter
ranean in which there has been a rebellion
against the Turkish power. > The addresB of the
committee says : * The committee urge you
to express, upon every occasion, your sympathy
for the Cretans, so as to swell that rising voice
of public opinion which calls for intervention
on the part of the Christian governments. *
* * If fou can only express yout-
sympathy by words you will help. If you can
do more, the committee will be happy to re
ceive your contribution, and will guarantee its
safe application. A contribution in churches
would give both moral ijnd material aid.”
But there are other matters in this publica
tion in whjch we find an interest that comes
nearer home. Q$ite unconscious of its wider
application, the writers in this paper portray
the inextinguishable hatred of hostile races.
The lapse of two centuries, with intermixture
and intermarriage, have not reconciled the
Turk and the Greek; and, in high-sounding'
phrases, the Boston committee call Upon us to
take the part of the Cretans in “an antagonism
arising out of difference of race, language and
religion.” (Page 5.) The committee go on to
say : “ This silen . struggle for national exist
ence, this death grapple between raees, is now
going on between Greeks and Turks in various
parts of Old Greece, insular and continental, in
soft Samos, in flowery Rhodes, in blood-stained
Seio, in rugged Epirus, in fertile Thessaly, in
rich Macedonia; aid the end is sure to be—
extermination of the Turks, or their expulsion
from Europe.”
These facts, and many more like them, prompt
thoughts that only the fiercest political fanati
cism can smother. Is there not, nearer than
Crete, a race allied to us by a thousand ties of
blood and ancient service and common interest?
Is there not the people whom we, in Pennsyl
vania, once spoke of always as “ our Southern
brethren ? ” The descendants of the men who
stood firm, just up the river, when the British
army marched on Philadelphia. Then it was
that the Father of his Country, in calling
Pennsylvania to ohe field, said; “ To defend
Philadelphia I have little left with me but one
regiment from Maryland, and five regiments
from “Virginia.” Then, the States that touched
us on our Southern border were knit to Penn
sylvania with links of steel—kept brighter
even than the lwords which they have since
turned upon each other in fratricidal strife.
Southern troops dyed with their blood the
ground where tbe streets of Philadelphia run
to-day; they fought at Germantown to drive
the enemy out of Philadelphia, as stoutly as
they fought upon the Delaware and the Bran
dywine to stop his march upon our city. This
is. the breed of nien whom a clique of Radical
politicians have doomed to subjugation-rand
to the Negro! We absolve the masses of the
Northern people from any wilful participation
in this, the great crime of our age and country.
The majority of the present Congress, who
sinned, in this matter, against light and reason.
ere elected in 18-56 on the most solemn pledges
to leave the whole question of suffrage to the
determination of the people of the Southern
States. They vio ated their pledges, under the
rod of Thaddeus Stevens; the grand Turk
never played the master over the Cretans more
openly than Thadceus Stevens did over his fol
lowers in the House. The moderates in the
Senate, Doolittle, Cewan, Dixon and others, he
drove into political exile. His earnest fanaticism
has impressed his policy upon his party, and
has blackened their fame in history with an
indellible stain.
And who are these men in Boston whose
sympathies gu9h out so freely towards the
remote Cretans? They take care to let us
know. They are I adicals wild with fanaticism.
In this appeal for a foreign object they cannot
even sacrifice, to i ts advancement, the chance
to utter thnir raneerous domestic politics. We
are actually assured that the Cretan question is,
in Bost -n, “Next to impeachment; the most
popular topic.” We are told tliat,,**#^ soon as
this administration is overthrown, there shall
be a radical change of our foreign policy in this
respect.” Was ever a good cause disgraced
and prejudiced by more imbecile advocates?
For we have, as strongly as any one, a sympa
thy in the cause of the oppressed Cretans. Our
sympathy is the stronger for the conviction
which we hold upon the general subject, nar
rowed by no partisan bigotry. To the Africafi,
whether at home at Boriboolah-Gah, or on this
coctinent, we would give the? help and further
ance that will raise him to his place among men;
but to put him, by sheer force, all ignorant and
barbarous as he is, above or on a level with our
own race—that we will not do. No ; that as
white men, as the o-gan of white men, we will
not advocate nor countenance, nor,-if we'can
help it, suffer.
uouDces his retirement from the editorship
nf the Church Journal, a post which he has
held lor a period of fifteen years. He dies
this, he says, partly iu order to prepare lor
the press several treatises which his father
had in hand when his health failed him. He
says:
“My father left two treatises iu manu
script, which would have been put to press
this winter had he lived. Indeed, at the
time when the telegram announcing his last
and brief illness reached me, I was daily, in
expectation of receiving tin manuscript, to
be placed in the hands of the publishers.—
One of these works will prove to be of pe-
cnliar interest; for he wrote it as a ‘retracta
tion’ of an opjoiou which he found he had
expressed in' oue of his previous works,
that there is good ground for regarding tbe
Pope to be the anti-Christ. In reviewing
bis books for final correction, with a view to
a new and uniform edition, he felt that a
mere alteration of the text in a matter of so
much importance was not a sufficient tribute
to the truth; aud he therefore wrote this
little treatise, acknowledging liis error,
showing that he was misled by high au'ho-
rities without sufficient examination on his
phrt, and going on to demonstrate that the
common Protestant notion cannot be cor
rect. No nobler proof could be given of his
fearlesss and conscientious honesty of
character than such a close to such a career
as his.”
The fact6 stated above, says the Richmond
Dispatch, is an interesting one, but by no
means justifies the inference that Bishop
Hopkins had any leanings towards the
Catholic Church. Surely a man may believe
that the Pope i9 not anti-Christ without being
a Catholic.

Indian Antiquities of Nashville.
[From the Nashville Times.]
f There are many indications that upon tbe
sike of Nashville there was located a great
and populous city of an ancient people. The
early settlers found on these hills vestiges of
fortifications, of buildings, of vaults, of un
derground passages,;and of these the Indians
confessed they knew nothing. These latter
aborigines, to be sure, had ibeir camps and
villages thick over the surrounding emi
nences. When Nashvillee was a beleaguered
town, and the suburbs and adjacent country
were cu t up and ridged with long lines of
Works, many were the queer aud deeply in
teresting relics exfiumcci.
It was at that time discovered that in
North -Nashville was an immense cemetery
of the dead, where probably thousands had
been buried/ It is a singular fact that among
all the remains exhumed here none but those
of grown or adult people have been found.
VVhere are the children ? Six miles from
the city, and towards the mouth of Stone
river; is a vast maosoleum of the dead, and
none but the bones of pigmies have beeu there
discovered. .,Hore is what a letter, written
td one of the metropolitan newspapers nearly
five years ftgo, wye about these diminutive
graves, which have since been examined, to
gether with their contents, by scientific
nien, and decided as we have stated, to be
skeletons ot’children:
, “3ome interest has been excited in Ten
nessee by the discovery of graves from eigh
teen to twenty-five and 30 inches iu length.
Tbfe operations of mining and oil companies
l : h£ve disclosed the cariosities, which contain
bbinan akelefons, whose teeth are : extremely
diminutive. Gen. Milroy has deposited
some of the bones in the Tennessee S ate
Library, but could elicit no information from
foe inhabitants concerning these Lilliputian
sepulchres except tbe fact that a large num
ber of similar graves have been fount! at the
mouth of Slone river, near Nashvilel. They
Were examined thirty years ago, and excited
considerable comment at the time-” We
spoke ot the relics wpich were exhumed by
tje soldiers who labored upon the numer
ous fortifications. Many of these we have
sben. They comprise curiously figured
shells, vases, utns, water jogs and various
queer ornaments, some of them exhibiting a
great deal df artistic taste and skill. In the
cibineta of more than one college in the
North may be found relics strange, peculiar
apd pregnant# with |be istory of .an aqcient
