In the House this afternoon, the question of impeachmen: was finally disposed of, by a vot? of 57 ayes and 195 noes, on the motion of Mr. Logan for the adoption of the majority re- port of the Judicisry Vommittee, favoring im- peachment. This decisive vote pats an end to the matter, beyond any chance af resuscita- tion. ‘The vow wae taken amidst mach exc men! and with proforad silence on tiie par: of the audience, cave when & baz: ran slong galleries following spon some neexpected vote betug given preor con. The fateof im- peschment was pretty soon settied, when men of tne prominence in the Republican party of Messrs. Hanks, Baldwin, Bingham, Blaine, Dawes, Eliot, LaMin, Togersoll, Gerfield, Poland, Spaiaing, Van Wyck, the Wasbburns, Welker, Woodbridge, and James F. Wilson ‘were found voting dead against it. Some ven: to the excited feeling was afforded from time to time by the laughter occasioned by odd excuses and explanations made by different members. Mr. Hroomall rose to say that bis cclleagae. Mr. Schofield. was not bere, but if he were here he had no dowht he would vote——right. (Great laaghter.) Mr. Miller: of Pa., said be should vote “no,” or the ground that che evidence was not strong enongb to sustain impeachment. Mr. Eléridge (Dem) said that was precisely the reason why he voted against it. | Langhter.) Mr. Stevens was notin tne Hall when the vote was taken, but came in subsequently, Was the last, or fifty-seventh man to rote afiirmatively for impeachment. All the four Wasbburns, (Osdwalader ©. of Wisconsin, Eiht B.of tiinois, Henry D. of Indiana. and Wm. B. of Massacbussetts,) voted in a row against »mpeachment, The vote of 57 for impeachment is precisely the number estimated for it some days ago in the Star. Had every member in favor of im- peacnment been present, hewever, it would have secured 60 votes, and had every member opposed to it been present, the vote against it would bave reached the number of 121. The Vote of i(/ against impeachment may be set down as composed of 6 Republicans and 49 Democrats. Mr. Myers, of Penn=ylvania, stated that, having been prevented from offeriag a reso. jution of censure of tne President, ne should vote vmye.” It was expected by some ot the frends of General Butler that when the test question came he would yote no: but he seems to have felt himself committed to ine impeachment theory.
