His Personal Appearance and Re- cord. [St. Louis Globe-Demoerat, 8th.] Except the trial of Aaron Burrand theimpeachmentof PresidentJohn- son, no more important trial has been held in the United States since the century began than that which was virtually commenced yester- day. But there are many points of contrast between those and this. Aaron Burr, an ex-Vice-President, had to answer at Richmond to an accusation of an attempt to estab- lish a private empire of his own 1n territory which the genius of the American people had long before marked out as a peculiar province. He was acquitted after a long and tedious trial, but few of his unpreju- diced cotemporsries doubted his guilty desire to sceomplish the am- bitious aim imputed to bim An- drew Johnson eame within the peril of the law by an impeachment which accused him of using the powers of his high office for the pur- pose of defeating the expressed will of & people who bad but a few years before poured out their blood and treasure to maintuin the integrity of the Union. He, also, was acquit- ted; but by a yery small majority. Both of these men stood accused of erimes whose very grandeur is caleulated to rob them ot half their enormity in theeyes of the unthink- ing multitude, and many partisans were made for both by the magnl- tude of their treasonous ambitions. In the trial of General Babeock; the defendant has none of these meretricious advantages. A brave and faithful soldier, who won honors time and time agan 0 frout of a determined foe; the man who fought with the’ Ninth army corps of Rentucky, and thence through the Vicksburg siege, and until the date of the final surrender at Ap- pomattox, and to whom was deputed the honorable task of first meeting the fallen chief of the confederacy, to choose with him the ground on which Lee should yield his sword to Grant; this man has mow to to meet the charge of conspiring to defraud the government he has served so well. The general is 8 man under mid- dle height, probably not more than five feet seven. His blue eyes shine from a ruddy, handsome connte- nance, whieh, itself, bespeaks the good-will of all who behold it. His hair 15 dark, and & reddish military mous*ache and goatee adorn his lips and chin The main characteris- tics of his face are an expression of pleasant good nature, combined with great mental force and individual- ity. Theonly weakness he shows s in u;cn-rtum nervousness as he passes his marvelously white hand over his Lip, the slender fingers slightly quivering the while. But this, no doubt, arises from the effect ot tremendous consequences of the accusation to which he has to an- swer. A gentle, refined nature like his could not fail to evince this much of emotion under such oir- cumstances, and the modesty of the man Was shown when the reporter sought to gamn particulars of his career as a soldier of the republic. In fact these queries were only answered at all in a general outline, and then ouly through the interven- tion of one of his counsel. The st time that General Bab- cock came into prominent notice 'was when, as chief engineer of the Ninth army corps,' he tollowed his ocommand to Vicksburg. At the slege of this city, he was given charge of the outer line of the at- tacking works, opposite General Jo. Johnston. General Grant visited these works & few days after their completion, and, being struck with the skill shown in their construc- tion, asked tor the officer who had raised them, and this led to the first meeting between GRANT AND BABCOCK. Boon afterwards, when Vicksburg fell. General Grant paid Colonel Babcoek the special compliment of requesting his personal attendance at the ceremony of the surrender. When, later on, General Grant re- ceived his commission as lieutenant general, he telegraphed to New York, whither Colonel Babcock had gone on leave, to report forthwith at ‘headquarters, and on the arrival of the latter gentleman at Nashville he was notified of his appointmeng as chief engineer on the staff of the new made lieutenant general. From this time onward the utmost confidence has been reposed in Gen. Babeock by his chief, and when Gen Lee finally surrendered, it was to Gew. Babeock that was deputed the delicate and honorable task of meeting the fallen confederate chief- tain to arrange all the necessary preliminaries for ceremony which crowned the victory of the Union armies, A filendship, thus commencea on the field and ripened by mutual counsels in the face of mortal dan- gers, was continued after the war into civil life, and the president chose his trusted companion in arms for his priyate secretary; a Post which he has filled ever since until the indictment, the trial of which is now pending. What the president thinks o the gentleman can best be shown in the following words, to which he gave utterance some ten days since My confidence in General Bab- cock is unimpaired and undimin- ished. With the light before me today and my knowledge of the ‘man, if the government had any great work on haud requiring the services of a skiilful and faithful man as engineer, 1 know of no one whom, as Executive, I would select in preference to General Babcock. The work he bas done in this city (Washington) is proof, as far as can be, ofthe correctness of this estimate. Since his fime as acting commis. sioaer of public grounds and builds ings in Washington, members of congress, in peaking of his work and the improvement of the public grounds, have expressed great satis- faction, and havesaid to me : ‘Now ‘we can see where the public money goes.” There never has been a de- ficieney with General Babcock since his time as acting commissioner.” SHERIFF'S SALE.

Mr. Wallace presented fifty peti- tions of five thousand citizens of Pennsylvania in favor of aid to the Texas Pacific railway. Referred. Mr. Randolph, from the commit- tee on military affairs, reported fa- vorably on tte house bill donating condemned cannon balls to the La~ dies’ Monument luo;hflon of Alle- ghany county, Pa. Mr. Sherman, , from the commit- tee on finance, reported a substitute for the resolution submitted by Mr. Davis early in the session in regard to accounts of defaulting officers, ctc. " TR subatitute diresss o soe: retary ot the treasuryto furnish to the senate, as soon as practicable, astatement of all balances due the United States from public officers and others formerly but not now in the public service, distinguishing those which have been settled, set- ting forth,as near as practicable, the period over which such accounts ex- tended, the amounts involved, etc., together with the character ofstocks held by the United States, amount of such stock, and if default has been made in payment of mterestd r. Davis said there might be some amendment to the resolution, but as it was a step in the right di- rection he would not cause any de- lay by propoeing an amendment. Mr. Mornll, from the committee on public buildings and grounds, re- ported a bill sppropriating $25,000 for continuing the work ot improv- ing capitol grounds during the pres- ent fiscal year. The appropriation made last year was exhausted. Passed. Mr, Edmunds submitted a resolu- tion instrueting the committee on public buildings and grounds to in- quire into the expediency of mak- ing adequate provision for a speedy completion of the Washington monumentin Washington, and that they have leave to report by bill or otherwise. A . Mr. Wright called up Jthe, senate bill to pay the first national St. Al- bans (Vt.) bank $28,650 the value of certain United States treasury notes held by said bank as financial agent of the United States and forcibly taken therefrom by raiders from Canada in 1864, the pending amend- ment being to strike out the clause providing for payment of interest ou that amount from October 19, 1864, until the time of the payment, which was agreed to, and the bill passed as amended. Mr. Boutwell introduced a bill to repeal the pre-emption laws and provide for the sale of timber upon public lands of the United States. He gave notice that at the proper time he would offer it asasubstitute for the bill to repeal section 2033 of the revised statutes inregard to pub- lic lands in Alabama and other states. Ordered printed. Mr. Kelly called up the senate bill to extend the time for the con- struction and completion of the Northern Pacific railroad, the pend- ing question being on amendments reported by the committee on rail- roads on January 17th and 2ith, to extend the time to eight years in- stead of ten, making the bill apply to the main line of the road via the valley of the Columbia river and terminate on Puget Sound, that it shall not apply to the branch line of said from Lake Pend de Oreille, across the Cascade moun- tains to Puget Sound, ete. Mr. Bargent moved the bill be re- committed, that the amendment might be framed to protect settlers in their rights. After discussion the bill was laid over until to-morrow. At the expiration of the morning hour the senate proceeded with the house centennial bill, appropriating $1,500,000. r. Morrill spoke at length in fa- vor of the bill, and said the centen— nial exhibition had become a na- tional question, on which congress could not turn its back. The honor of the nation was involved in ita success. Mr. Norwood said he desired to speak on the bill, but was unable to g0 on to-day. He moved the sen- ate adjourn. jected. Mr. lkdmunds said he understood the senator from Georgia was not acres, of which the railroad compa- nies require one-third. After considerable discussion the bill was rejected. The -house then went into the committee of the whole, on the con- sular and diplomatic appropriation In a brief discussion as to further debate it was uhderstood that Mr. Biaine would address the house to- morrow, promising to keep as near to the merits of the bill as Messrs. Cox and Kelly had done, and that general debate would close to-mor- ow. The committe rese and the house adjourned, NEW YORK, Feb. 9. Henry C. Bowen was waited up- on to-day in regard to the summons of the Plymouth church examining committee. He declined to state whether he had received another summons to appear before the com- mittee, or what action he should takein case he should be summoned. There was a great fire on Broad- way this morning. The flames were not fully subdued until three o'clock this morning. Careful search has been made for other vie- tims of the flames than those al- ready reported. Nine bodies have already been found. It is believed that all the firemen caught by the falling have already been taken out. Theloss will reach fully $3,000,000. NEew Yorg, Feb. 9. The total damage by the fire Iast night is estimated at $2,900,000. Braman & Hartwell have sus- pended. In Rubenstein’s trial witnesses testified that the prisoner was in Jacob Rubenstein’s house on the }wenmg of the murder, playing Lotto. ‘W ASHINGTON, Feb. 9.

He thought -common courtesy re- quired that the bill be laid over un- til to-morrow, that the senator might speak. Therefore he moved that the senate proceed to consider- ation of executive business. Mr. Merriman submutted a reso- lution that the committee on rules be instructed to prepare and report an appropriate rule to the senate to prohibit the annoyance of sending Visiting cards to senators while the senate isin sessfon. Laid over. The senate then went into ex- ecutive session aud soon adjourned. HOUBE. Mr. Banning usked leave to offer & resolution calling on the secretary of war for information as to the number of draught horsesand mules in the service of the army, their cost, place of purchase, etc. Also as to the cost of mounting regi- ments of cavalry. Mr. Thornburg objected on the ground that the information called for would occupy the whole clerical force of the department till the close of the session. The speaker then called on com- mittees for reports. Mr, rarsons, from the committee } on private land claims, reported a bill authorizing the secretary of the treasury to sell, atprivate sale, such portion of Sublle prog;r!y at’ Vin- cennes, Ind., as may be required for tracks , switches, shops and other purposes of the Ohio and Mississip- pl,the Evansville and Crawfords- ville, and the Indianapolis and Vincennes railroad companies, real estate having been acquired by the government for debt, and being commonly known as the ‘‘steam mill tract,” or the ¢ Hall-Neilson’ property. Mr. Holeman objected to that provision of the bill allowing the transfer ot property at private sale, and argued that it should be opened to public competition. Mr. Parsons replied that mr. Hol- man’s proposition would be unjust to those railroad companies which were using the property. ul{r-[flramlmln Illllltf ted thatat least al of the property not needed by the railroad &ert panies should be ot oy public com- priv: Enhn, not by ate sale. e property consists of about 80 pense, connected with the uncertain- ty of its benefitting them while at the same time, had they confidence in that remedy, tho expense would be the least objection. With this fact in view we make the following proposition : Any person suffering with & _cold, cough or sore throat, that will call at Martin & Kennard’s drug store and purchase a bottle of Hale’s Congh Cordial, use one-halr of it, and if they then conclude that it is doing them no good, they can return the bottle and receive back their money.

The Trial of General Babcock. BT. Louis, Feb. 8. The opening of the case for the government by District Attorney Dyer occupied over two hours, clos- ing before 2 p. m. It was largely devoted to a review of the whisky conspiracy as shown in previous trials, afterwards out-living the ev- idence upon which the government proposed to show Gen. Babcock’s connection with that conspiracy, includi. g the payment of money to bim by the ring in this eity. In conclusion the District Attorney stated that the evidence against the plaintiff will be largely circumstan- stantial. The court adjourned tili 3 p. m., at which hour Joseph Fitz- roy was called as the first witness for the goverument. His testimony was the same as given in previous trials; his story wasthe same, and his manner was as comfortably self- assured as when on the witness stand several times before. Objec- tion was made by the counsel for the defense, who claimed the inad- missability of evidence in this case prior to June 6th, 1872, as the tax on distilled spirits was only fifty cents per gallon up that time; while indictments claims a conspiracy to deiraud the government of a tax of 00 cents per gallon. Subsequent to that date the counel for the government claimed the point of the indictment was thé fact that such a conspiracy existed, and that under ordinary rules. Of the eyidence, the testimony is com- Ppetent, which show the organization and growth, and the progress of the conspiracy. NEW YOREKE. Another Commercial Failure.
