They are just now working more vigorously to secure a favorable recognition of his administration in the Convention in the shape of a resolution. It is truly stated im to-day's Worid that Cali- fornia and Nevada are talking very strongly tor Judge Field, aud are making some head- ‘way in pressing his claims. Those two States will cast 8 solid vote tor him, and consider that Oregon will be with them after one or two ballots.

Butler's report on the impeachment investigation was Treperted inthe House at? p m. to-day, and ordered to be printed. It starts out with @ statement of the difficulties whioh lay in the way of the committee's investigation. Relative to the raising of money for impeach- ment purposes, the rt states that a paper was passed through the New York tom-house, taxing employers $5 head. ‘The paper was headed, «We, the undersigned, gratuitously appropriate the sums opposite our pames for the cause of our country. and are op) to the impeachment of President Jobuson.” The ast words were added to the paper by Collector Smythe. Smythe refused to tell! the Committee whnt was done with the ™oney so collected. The testimony of General Egan, formerly Col- lectorof Internal Revenne, is to the effect that as early as the 30ch of March, it was known to the President that Senators Fessenden, Trumbull, Grimes, Headerson, Fowler, Ross, Van Winkle, and others would vote for ac- quttal. The Committee say that they have testimony toshow that Perry Fuller boasted that it cost him $22,000 to procare the elec- thon of Rose as Senator by Kansas Legis- lature.
