The Washington special correspondent of the Jtf'iasouri Demoorat, under date of the 20th iuatat, says It is reported hero that General Palmer has written a letter, ic which lie says he is not a candidate for Governor of Illinois, and does not intend to be; but that if tho nomination be tendered to him by the Republican State Convention, ho shall deem It hia duty to accept the same." "We know nothing, personally, abofct tho truth of this report but sincerely hope a it is true.

It wan expected that tho case would bo closed on Saturday, but since there lo to be no session of the court to-day, it is not probable that a decision will be reached before tho middle of next weok. This will be a disappointment to many who aro becoming very impatient at tho length of time alrekdy occupied by the court; but it be borne In mind thatthe whole moral effect of the impeachment cla- pftnda on the evidence whloh, is fur lahed the people that the President has had a fnir and impartial trial; and all the time necessary com-, plete vindication of his official' conduct, if a all defensible.

Metcalf-- Edwards ville. J. Barnsbaok-- Troy Isaac C. Moore, Collinsville. i The Committee to draft resolutions reported the following, which were unanimously adopted: Resolved, 1st, That as the party of progress in opposition to the inert and regressive or the so-called "Conservative" party, wo 'hereby renew our declarations In favor of radical principles and radical policies ae the only fitting ones to be advocated in a nation that leads the vanguard of civil ana religious liberty In the latest and most enlightened age of the world: and that we cannot too strongly condemn the maliguaut spirits that in this time and country can resort to barbarous ages for their practices; and seek by the persecutions of cnste, and the assassin's dagger to silence the arguments and the men they can not answer.

Jtesotved, That tbe -events of the last eight years fully justify the necessity of the organization of the Republican party, and prove that its principles and policies are essential to the maintenance of National Union, Public Faith, and Personal Liberty; and that the co-operation and sympathy of Democratic parties composed of rebels in the South and their sympathi'Aers in the North -identify, as heretofore; these two branches of that organization as substantially one in treason, disloyalty, and dishonor, and render the continuance of the Republican party in power a national necessity. Resolved, That we endorse the Reconstruction pohpr the States; as the ouly protection for Union men from insult, robbery, and violent death, and as the best means of securing the permanent ascendancy of the principles of the Constitution by placing in Union hands the powers of government which, have been wrested from rebels at the sacrifice of so much of the blood and treasure of the nation. Resolved, That the repudiation of debts fairly contracted, is no less censurable in public than in private affairs, and that Jefferson Davis, of Mississippi, and George H. Pendleton, of Ohio, in their advocacy of the contrary doctrine show themselves alike wanting in a due regard to tional honor and a statesmanlike understanding of the requirements of public faith; and that we arraign their bubservlent followers in the late Demoeraiic Convention at Springfield, us wanting in discernment and in the simplest principles of common honesty. JSesolved, That the Reconstruction measures of Congress, by aecuriug protection to the negroes in the rights and privileges of freeman, at the request of the loyal whites in the South is the best means and only practical scheme of colonization, aud the only effectual method of preventing the late rebels from driving the negroes into the Northern States, from a climate more suited to their constitutions, by means of oppressive legislation.

Hesolved, That in the impeachment of Andrew Johnson, by the people's representatives Jn Congress, for tbe violation of laws which he had sworn to execute, we recognize another triumph of the principles of the Constitution its enemies; and that his removal from the high office that he has disgraced would be an appropropriate and deserved punishment for his treachery, usurpation aud defiance of the laws. Mr. M'Pike offered the following resolutions, which were adopted: Resolved, That Major General John M. Palmer is the first choice of the Republicans of Madison as candidate for Governor of Illinois. Resolved, That Jehu Baker, our present member of Congress, is our first choice for a re-nomination: aud that iu his sterling integrity aud eminent ability, we recognize qualities that make his re-election to Congress, creditable to his constituents and useful to the country.

The sljowing crooks. a waste of 144'' miles' Importance of One Vote. From the Norwich (Ct.) Bulletin. The recent election In the town of Lisbon so demonstrates the value of a single vote, that we cannot forbear giving some of the details of that most spirited contest: Ten days before the election, the Democrats nominated one of their strongest and tho Republicans, Mr. H.

Against this odds the Republican nominee fought, from the hour of his i a i till the morning of the election. When the vote was counted, at live o'clock, it was found that English was eighteen ahead, but that neither of the candidates for the Legislature had been elected, each a i received the same number of votes.

Two men that might have voted did not, for reasons not necessary to i one living in the town of Lisbon, aud one out, and so the election was lost. Next day the contest was renewed, amid the peltlnga of the most pitiless A i i storm we have had for years. Meii who wore hardly able to sit up were carried iu carriages to the polls, and when five o'clock came the Democratic i was three ahead, with three Republicans in the town and one out that the storm had kept away. And an able and efficient worker was lost to the Stale, a Dem- of tho bitterest type elected, one men lost each a day, beshlo damage to harnesses, wagons, carriages, clothes, and all the ex- petiHe of bringing voters home again who had gone away. All for the lack of one vote.
