Something we need vert much, We
have,, before, in common with the local edit
ors of the other city papers, urged earnestly
the necessity which exists herein Wilming
ton for a City Hospital, in the hopes that
something of the kind could be had, but so
far no step whatever has been taken looking
to the desired end. . ! . : ? . '
i A City Hospital is something which the
people of Wilmipton have long felt the need
of, and which the necessities otrthe incoming
.summer may imperiously demand. " Should
any epidemic afflict us, then the poor people
among us, yes, and many of the more wealthy
classes, would suffer untold miseries for the
want of accommodations. The lesson which
we were taught in 18CS should be sufficient
to induce rs to take some steps .looking to'
watfs the erection here of such an institution
as we have spoken of. i
The poor of a city arc the peculiar care of
lue xeopie ot tnat.city, ana n utsatn or in,
life, must be succourecL Appeals to private
benevolence are too slow and unsystematic,
and withal too unproductive for the pur
pose. The people must be taxed to erect it,
and no matter what other taxes may be
hanging over a man, this one, the most im
perative of all,- should be laid hd enforced.
An especial tax, levied for the especial bene
fit of the poor of the city, and to be applied
to no other purDOse. would meet with but
little, if any. opposition from the public
All, or nearly all of them acknowledge! the
obligation as a primary one, and while they
will readily pay the tax Collector their le

when solicited as a private subscription. :
j A City Hospital is needed, and a .City
' Hospital we must have. We have made
-many careful -enquiries into the matter, and
have profited by the conversation and advice
of some gentlemen in this city -whose po
sitions entitle them to much information in
the matter, and we really think the matter
in every way fully worthy of the serious Son
sidei atijbn of our people. 'The benefits
which, in case of a visitation by disease, , it
. would confer upon the people, are too many 1
and too obvious to need recapitulation. here..
The Hospital should bet built ; and our
fears for the future relieved We believe
that this Hospital has become an actual ne
cessity with us; that it should have been
long since established,' but that the time has
now arrived when the subject Can be no
longer avoided; that the good name of our
city demands that her poor should be cared
for, in suffering and distress; that the only
practicable way in which this can be now
done, is thrnucrli the exertions of the citv
authorities, as such; - that from the city
. '. . O : r Z if
treasury must .'' come T the financial support,
but yet that treasury cannot furnish the
funda unless a decided change is adopted in
the present method of taxation.
The poor of this city, in b.ealth, iu sick
ness and in death have been too often and
for too long a time thrown unon the not al-
i wjs tenaer mercies of a private charity.
The few should never be made to bear the
burdens of the mass of the people, and in
jthis instance it is time that the emboaied
public should assume charge of its own re
sponsibilities. . .
I . or lone time nnst snmn of our.citv
PJBicians have charitably attended those
. Were unable to pay for their attend
ance, thereby civini? their time and labors
and oftentimes money for medicine, in cases
jwnere tuey, no more than the community a
arfcV are especially interested, and yet
apropos of fml fact, these same physicians
are compelled to pay into the city treasury
ave aouars each a'month for the license un
der which they practice, oftentimes benefit
ing the indigent, poof as ell as themselves,
while in some other businesses, the municipal
tax is entirely disproportionate.
We have, already, usetl up more than the
space which WailoTtei.HhU subject on
first entering upon it, I and must therefore
close this article, with the full intention,
however, vof again resuming the subject at
an cany day.
The Re ulatob. Among the many dry
goods establishments in thfs city which of
fer their inducements to the ladies to enter
and purchase, there are none perhaps, that
present more attractio ns thancan be; found
at Waldron's store, ycleped " Thk Wilming
ton Regulator," on South Pront street.
Mr. Waldron, it will be remembered, is one
of those; who suffered severely by T the late
disastrous fire on Market street, but yet, with
an energy and enterprise that is worthy of
much encouragement, he went f busily to
work, and very shortly after the fire opened
again at No. 4, South Front He has but
recently wturned, from .New York with a
fine: neW stock? oft the I latest Spring styles
which he offers to sejl at the lowest of low
prices for cash. Numbers of his old, and
many of his new customers have already
found the ay to .his new location,, but, as
he is prepared to accommodate the millions
everybody else is invited to call and exam
ine his selections. . ' V
An Incident. Thejoldr saying that it
takes more than oncswallow to make a
spring is sometimes subject, to queer tests.
So thought we yesterday as we saw a bache
lor friend bf ours take swallow after swallow
at a saloon counter, and afterwaras attempt
to spring nimbly aside as two ladies of his
acquaintance passed him in the street. Rut
alas for the mutability ot human hopes!
Our friend was too busily observant of the
fair ones before him to notice that a wheel
barrow was at hand, and instead of spring-,
ing gracefully aside he fell upou the wheel
barrow and was most beautifully rolled
overboard in the gutter. Two or three
charitable. Samaritans, who were near at
hand,' assisted our friend to rise, when he
immediately started in pursuit of another of
those swallows which do riot make a spring.

QuAiiANTiNE.-r By the midnight telegrams
of ycsterdaymorning'8 paper, we learn that
Gen. Grant has issued an order to the Com -manders
of the several -Military Districts,
relative to the quarantine on vessels arriv
ing at ports in their several districts. The
instructions 'are that all veseels arriving at
any of these Wits from places infected with
the yellow fever, cholera Or other
disease, but having had no case
epidemic
on board
during thopassage, be j quarantined, for fit-
ieen uays ana luorouguiy iumigaiequ
It will be recollected that a late order
from Geu. Canby establishes quarantine here
on the first of May.
Fatal Accident. An accident
occurred
on the Wilmington and'Manchesterj Railroad
yesterday morning, a few miles from this
citv, which resulted in the death of! a colored
man namea uranaisen jn.cj.myre. j ic Beems
that Mclntyre attempted toct upon the
mall train while it' was m motion, and in
doing soffell upon the track when the cars
passed over him. killing him almost in
stantly. A jury of inquest was
held upon the body and a verdict
yesterday
Tendered
in accordance with the above facts.
Dave Merrick. The invincible Dave
was again on the rampage yesterday. He is
generally considered as about half crazy, and
is almost invariably half drunk. He is, in
general, harmless, but sometimes delights in
frightening women arid children, and should
therefore be kept from the streets when on a
frolic. The authorities should see 1 3 it.
A Suggestion.- Why don't somes ot our
young " lads and lassies" take advantage of
the present- beautiful weather and betake
themselves to" the Sound and there, dance
and flirt a few of the hours away, within
full view of old ocean, and with the delicious
sea-breeze to cool their brows and give them
an appetite for dinner ? '.,
Beautiful: One of the prettiest things
hat we have seen for many a long number
of days is that beautiful flower basket which
yesterday adorned the soda fount in Ltppitt's
store. It was maae Dy a iaay oi wus cuy,
whose taste in such matters is exquisite, and
is, we think; the most beautiful thing of the
kind we ever saw. sri-vi:

Senator Gates writes a letter to the citizens of

telegraphed last night.

affair is still a State secret.

Defeated, 20 to 27.. ,
Mr. Sumner submitted a motion that a vote on
the several articles proceed at 12 o'clock of the
day after the argument of the managers and coun
sel closes. , . i.. - ' : : '
Objection was made, "and it goes over under
the rules to Monday. t
Mr. 8umner proposed two additional rules;
first, that Chief Justice Chase shall ask each
senator,' How do you vote? and he shall reply,
guilty or not guilty ; and, second, that upon con
viction, it 6hall be the duty of the presiding offi
cer to order the convict's removal forthwith. '
Objection. The matter goes over to Monday.
Chief Justic Chase ordered the argument to
proceed. ,
Prosecution not responding, Mr.' Groesbe;k
commenced.
He argued that the body he was addressing was
a court, arguing from Constitution, which per
mitted neither bills of attainder, nor irresponsi
ble tribunals, and especially such as Were laws
unto themselves. .
Mr. Lincoln's plain violations of the Constitu-
ion had been ratified by Congress, because his
motives were good.
He then proceeded to argue that the first eight
articles rested on whether the President had a
right tp remove Mr. Stanton and give General
Thomas an ad interim appointment.
He argued that had Mr. Lincoln lived, and had
the tenure of office bill been passed on hostility
o Mr, Lincoln, he under its provisions during
nis second term, could have legally removed
a Cabinet officer appointed bv himself dur-
ng the first term; and that Mr. Stanton had in
finitely less claim to tenure under Mr. Johnson's
crm.
Mr. Groesbeck was suffering from "Bronchitis.
Adjournment proposed but Groesbeck feared
a few days delay would not help him, and asked
to be allowed to proceed through. Circumstances
compelled him to make important omissions in
his argument, that President having consulted
advisors indicated by the Constitution, was guile
less of crime. --
It was comparatively, useless to urge uncon
stitutionality of the act with those who framed
it; but granting its Constitutionality, ho denied
he President's criminality. The President's
oath of office required him to maintain the Con
stitution and Union. The officers swore only to
support it. "..'-' I?-'.- - ''
Answering Mr. Bout well; that the President
was bound to execute all laws.Groesbeck en
quired about the President's duty when the
Supreme Court had declared a law unconstitu
tional.
Mr. Groesbeck quoted a largonumber of pre
cedents against which was alone the act of '67,
claiming there was abundant room lor doubt and
hesitation on the part of the President, sufficient
at least, to induce him to resist, with a view of
obtaining a judicial decision. ; t . .
Mr. Groesbeck asked whether the President
was to be convicted and disposed of before he
had acted on the interpretation sanctioned by his
constitutional advisers, by the Thirty-eighth Con
gress, by the Supreme Court, and uniform prac
tice of Government? The evidence shewed that
the President acted in the public interest in re
moving Mr. stanton. :
Mr. Groesoeck contended that the President's
acquiescence in the Tenure of Office bill as long
as possible was a point in the President's favor.
As Mr. Groesbeck rproceeded he recovered his
voice, and held the floor and galleries spell-bound.
In concluding, ne expressed bis confidence intne
final result, and characterized the precedents of
conviction, reierred to by the managers, as
rather beacon lights oi warning than examples
lor guidance.. In conclusion, he pronounced a
gib wing eulogium upon Mr. Johnson's life, char
