The Reports ot the Committee i ri--r
ashinqton. NvembejF 25 The evil
deiiceiUpon. which the majority of the Cim
mittee reprt in" favour of Impeachment
discloses the following ficts:f; An uncon3ti-
tutiorial" usurpation 'of the power on the
part in the President to organize and reor-1
ganize civil State Governments; tlie denial
of the right of Congress to control the-work1
of : organiz ition, and the exercise ot, power:
ana omission . or tiuues in support u uhs
usurpation'and denial ; the wilful and uncon
stitutional assumption of power to suspend
the operations of the acts ot Congress,, and
the corrupt, wilful and unconstitutional re
fusal to execute the laws : the authorizjd
and illegal s'urrenler and sale of Govern
ment property, and the fraudelent breach if
the public trust, wherein the action of the
President in relation to -the Southern rail
roads is detailed at length, arid much evi
dence is given relati ve to the safe and surren
der of railroads and rolling stock, and other
property in whicl) it is shown , that all this
property was turnod over. against the advice
of the Secretary of War, ami Quartermaster
.General. It is also shown that the President
,extended the time for the payment of install
merits of principle and interest ; on the rail
roads purchased by the rebel companies.
The evidence further shows that at the same'
time these railroad companies had sufficient
aiuount of money on deposit F to meet their
indebtedness. By Jus connection with the'
Southern rpads, it shows that lie . realized , a
profit tit over eighteen thousand dolrars.
:. The other . grounds of impeachment are
the corrupt and unconstitutional abuse ot
the veto power : the abuse ot the pardoning
Yower; the surrender of , property ; to rebels ;
the disregard ot the rights of the property
t refugees and f reednien, and of the Uuited
States, and the unconstitutional and corrupt
exercise of the appointing 'power. Under
the litter head, a vast amount of testimony.

A Gentle Reminder.
Lord' Eldon was sitting in his study over
a table of papers when a young and lovely
girl slightly rustic in her attire, slightly em-
barrassed by the novelty ot her position, but.
thoroughly in command ot her witsantered
the room and walked up to the lawyers
chair. Iy dear," said the Chancellor, ris
ing and bovving with ,OIl . World courtesy.
"who are you ?'VLord Eldon," answered the

he had plulged hiuisejf.
a promise. K Yu wcre standing over my
cradle when papa said to you : !Mr. 'Scott,
promise me if ever are Lord Chancellor, when
my little girl is a poor clergyman's wife, you
will give her husband a living; and you. an
swered, Mr. Bridge, my promise is not
worth a crown, but I give it to you.-wishing-i
it were worth more. " Etithusiastically - the
Chancellor exclaimed :: xou are quite right.
I admit the obligation. I remember all
about it and then, after a pause; 'archly
surye ing the damsel,' whose, graces were the
reverse of matronly, he added : "But surely,
tlie time for keeping, my promise has not yet
arrived ? You cannot be any' one's wife at
present?"
For a tew recondg Bessie hesitated for an
answer and then, with a blash and a"' ripple
of silver laughter, she replied : No, Imt I
do wish tube somebo dy 's wi te; I a mengag
ed to a young clergyman, and there's ally
ing in Herefordshire, near my old home, that
has recently fallen vacant, and if you will
give it to Alfred, why then Lord Eldon; we
hall marry beforei the end of the year." Is
there need to say that the Chancellor forth
with sum'mond uis Secretary, that the Secre
tary forthwith made out the presentation to
Bessie's iover, and that having given? the
Chancellor a kiss of gratitude, ilsiie. made
good speed back :to Herefordshire,' hugging
