LATE FROM THE STATES.

The llonae impeacbmr‘m Committee is continuing its . lM’l‘MIRflMM oi the charges before it. and has sulnptu- ! lw'd the stcnograplwrs who reported the speeches of the President during his Western tour. as well as his fa- mous '22nd of February speech. It will be remembered that the reports printed of the latter differed widely from each other. The New York Times says :—"'.l‘he general impression in this reyion. and We think through- out the country. is that thc ’rrsidcnt \l'lll be L‘lllll‘tt'lt'tl and deposed from oilico; yet we see no symptoms of an earthquake either in Wall-street, or anywhere else The general belief is that the Senate will give the I'm. sident a fair trial, and will convict. and dcpnse him only if he be found guilty; and in that event the whole country and all parties will acquiesce."

I‘ltvnxnxu or a CATHOLIC Cut'nctt Ix Ilannxt.vx.—- The Roman Catholic Church of tit. Charles llorrc- men. situated on Sydney l'lacc. near the cornernf Liv- ingston street. Brooklyn. was destroyed by tire on Sun- day morning. ’l'ae origin of the fire, it appears. was accidental. caused by a defect in one. of the heaters in the basement. Loss estimated at 810,000.

Tm: Gum COIXAGE. —M r. Frelingbnyson introduced a bill in the Senate which was referred to the Finance Committee. which provides that the amnnt oi pure gold. in nne—bnlf of an eagle. or five dollar pit-ties. aim" here- ufterbe Il3 grains.

Dusrntrmox or Bans-vars Mtrsnt'sr av Fran. -— -At'two o‘clock. on Tuesday morning. fire was diet-ores- ed in the third storey of Barnnta‘a Museum. The tire was first discovered in the southeast corner of the build in. occupied by Van Ambttrgb'a tnennpritn The flatncs had attained snob headway before they were at'cttthnt. with the limited nit-ans at hand it. was found impossible to extinguish them. and attention tvns at once turned in the task of resetting those in 'be building and getting out whatever mperty could be readily nmv- ed. The fat Woman and fat boy. tantra: and other monstrosities, together with the jam tnr‘u family. were roused front their chambers and safely conducted from the burning building.

Sn rapidly did the flames a read that it was found im- possible to save any of tho nrgcr animals in the fine collection known as You Amhnrgh's menagrrie. 'I'hc yells of the animals as the ilttnws reached them were appalling. and they bounced from side to side. or dashed madly against the bars in vain stl‘nrts to freetbemselvee. A few of the animals on the Broad way aide. among them a kangroe. a small leopard and monkeys. together with polio-ans. and a variety of other small birds. Were got out. 0n the Mercer Street side the police and others were more, successful. A giraffe. Itvo camels, a pair of Japanese hogs. a Burmese cow. a ileum and a varier at small animals were got out.

meg to the foot. that the fist-apparatus was absent at a fire at Spring and Variclt streets. it was over ten minutes from the limo the alarm sounded before a steamer arrived upon the ground. and by that. time the tire had worked into the floor above and into the main portion of the building. and when sufficient force bud arrived the fire had attained such headway that it was utterly impossible to save the building. the flames raging with a force and fury that rendered the dclt'll streams directed into the building up areatly useless.

In a mmpnritit‘el short upuen optima the interior was burned out an the ad‘mt‘dng hmldlnga seriously damaged. The side of the 'rescht Home was on fire at one time. but Was saved by extraordinary exertions. The guests umnucd from 'llelr slumbera. , hurriedly rushed down stairs, many of them in their night gear. and cart in urine, of their ,pro rly.
