Bussia is rapidly overshadowing the other powers of Europe in population, although her diplomacy may not, at this period, be able to oopo with that of Prussia, France or England.

The rumor, which has been believed and echoed in high political quarters, and by political gentlemen of eminence and authority, concerning General Grant's intemperance, is receiving contradiction from Vimntia quarters, which are entitled to confii'latation and confidence. Mr. Dana, of the I^ew York .Vim, says: "In camp, he—almost alone among all the prominent officers of the army—never tolerated liquor or win9, either at his table or about his tent. Fatiguing marches, and tho excitement and exhaustion of battles, did not make him break over his rule not to touch or taste anything alcoholic. Again and again we have seen wine offered him at public and private dinners, only to be steadily refused."

Progress of Reconstruction. The Union majorities, in the Southern States in which elections have recently been hold are full and sufficient, and» notwithstanding the great efforts made to prevent reconstruction, it is evident that t'ae last of the "waywardsisters" will soon be in full accord with the Union.— Mississippi, Florida, Texas and Virginia arts yet to be heard from.

But there was one given a few evenings ago by WmT Prescott bmith, of Baltimore, that deserves special mention n* tb* inauguration of a much ....needed .improvement in the management of social reunions.—

Smith is known to the community at large as a successful railrdad and general business man, and to his friends as the very essence of a good, well-meaning and well-doing man- Although naturally an artist and philosopher, he has been educated in the school of practical life, so

knowledge, tastes and pursuits connect hitn by Strong ties to so many varieties of his fellow men that he is just the man for leader in any social movement. Usually men of opposite pursuits look upon each other with contempt or indifference. The sculptor and the bauker do not sufficiently respect each other. The musician and the farmer often look upon and speak of each other's pursuits with undisguised contempL. ...The world will never constitute a "happy family" until men learn to appreciate fully that all useful pursuits are honorable, and that the useful necessarily includes the ornamental. Mr. Smith is one of those fe men who understand this to be true, and he aims, therefore, to bring into social contact, that they may see, know and understand each other, eminent men from the different walks of life.— Poets, artists, scientists, statesmen, man* ufacturera and mechanics mingled freely in

Mr. Smith's house, the other night, got well acquainted with each other, and had "a good time generally."

Nothing prim, nothing formal, nothing conventional.— The only drawback to the scientific completeness, so to speak, of the affair,

was

the absence of women. There is doubtless some difficulty in inducing women to take a hand in anything that is not fashionable. They are more conservative than men. But it is to be hoped that the genius of Mr Smith

will

finally surmount

this difficulty, and that, at his next reception, the light^ will shine over fair women as well as bravo men.

A new secret organization has been formed here called tho "Patrons of Husbandry/' in which your farmer readers will be interested. Young women are admitted into the order at sixteen years of age. Young men have to wait two years longer.

While Mrs. Gaines has been pushing her claim persistently to a successful termination, her quondam attorney has been passing through a series of interesting vicissitudes, and has length reached a point which is likely to attract even a wider attention than the cause of bin successful client of thirty years ago.

Mr. Dawes at the request of Butler, offered a resolution that the Committee also inquire into the allegations of Brooks on Friday, relative to Butler

Mr. Brooks would not object to the reception of the resolution if he could move an amendment extending the limit of investigation.

Mr. Dawea replied he could present his proposition as a separate matter. The House then pjoceeded to the Senata

Mr. Cameron moved to invite the members of tho Medical Convention, now in session in the city, to «eats tha gallery, without tickets, saying they numbered about 200.

Mr. Drake objected. The motion was

agreed to.

Mr. Bingham resumed his argument. Mr. Bingham, after recapitulating his argument of yesterday, took up he question whether or not it is nocessary

in this

case to prove the evil intent. He read from the records of English State trials to show such proof is not needed. Lie could not argue the point at any length because it was plainly settled by common law Hml the practice of centuries the arguments of the counsel on this question were pureile and unfit to be tittered' inthe presence of the Senate.

He then referred to the question of the power of the President to fill vacancies created by

himself during session of the

Senate, and insisted that the fact of

intimate connection of tho power of appointment with that of removal had been studiously kept out of sight by the counsel opposing him, and went on to arguo with reference to all the provisions bearing on the subject, that the right t.» appoint a Cabinet officer without consent of tho Senate was nowhere granted to the President by the Constitution,it could not be merely filling a vacancy by a temporary appointment, his letter authoritatively appointed Gen. Thomas for an indefinite time To show that it was not among the President's implied powers under the Constitution to vacate and fill offices without consent of the Senate, he read from the writings of Hamilton and Webster.

He further maintained that the speeches of Sherman and other Senators were not susceptible of the meaning put on them by tho opposing counsel. In regard to the debate of 1789, he contended loo much weight was given to utterances of partisan debate at the time, but ho argued the power of removal granted the President in 1739 was restricted by subsequent legislation.

He held also that President Adams removed Mr, Pickering before the Senate met, although on the same day, and the record was not clear. He asked of what avail would be the provision ot the Constitution limiting the power to fill vacancies during a recess of the Senate, to the issue of a commission that would expire at the beginning of the next session. if the President could create vacancies at nil during session of the Senate.

Mr. Bingham challenged the citation of any law, or section of the Constitution which would limit tho tenure of officers thus apppointed by the President by such appointments. He could keep no man

According to the Ten-ure-of-Oifice law ii made tbo removal .of Stanton and tho appointment of General Thomas a misdemeanor, and no intelligent man could deny they were impeachable,offences.

Tho only question which remained to be considered was the Constituti'nnlity of that law. He might simply saf that was a close question to acknowledge now that the Tenure of-Officeact, which after

a long discussion had been passed, and then passed over the President's veto, and again approved on February 22d, is unconstitutional. It will bo for the Senate to deny, its decision three times made, and confess it is the guilty party worthy of impeachment.

Mr. Bingham then referred to his own course and that

party in opposing impeachment

till it was

unavoidable, till the Gods had made him mad, whom they wished to destroy. In regard to the defense based on the practice of the Government-during 80,years, he denied that such practice was contrary to tho spirit of the Tenure-of Office law, but claimed that the acts of 1789 and 1792 and subsequent years all implied and assumed the power of Congress to regulate the entire subject. Jn regard to the declarations of the President, which, contrary to all rules of evidonce bad been adduced in his defense, he said thoy were all made after the fact, yet was not sorry they all concurred in showing tho President's unjustifiable purposes.

Mr. Bingham then took up the charges of conspiracy, and argued that tho joint action of the President and General Thomas was indictable under the con-spiracy-act of 1861, but said that the inoictment of Gen. Thomas would be useless until after the President's impeachment and Qonviction since the latter would nullify it by the use of his pardoning power. In the interests of justice than, conviction of the President was demanded.

Mr Bingham at this point stated it Would take him an hour more to finish, and the Senate and Court both adjourned at 4 o'clock,
