PARIS, November j.
By a report of Genilfieux, made to the
Council of 500 on ill November, it appears
that serious rebellions had taken place, in a
part of the United Departments, occafiosed
by the military requilition. He fays "it was
produced by the instigation of England, and
ot fanaticifm. Tlie authors thereof are per
sons devoted partly to the former Belgic gov
ernment, and partly to the Stadtholder's par
ty. The revolters are priests, monks, va
grants and ft rangers. Liberty trees have
been replaced by crofles—a part of tin. badg
es were orange cockades—others had painted
the Imperial Eagle on their hats. The Di
rectory has taken the most efficient measures
to punifii the rebels, and has reason to expeft
a compleat vi&ory."
One million and a half of livres were in
eonfequence voted by the Council, and con
curred in by the ancients, as an addition to
the funds at the private disposition of the
direftory.
They write from Brest, that the frigate
La Semillante, belonging to Bompart's di
vision, which undertook the last unfortunate
expedition against Ireland, is returned to
I/Orient.
Letters from the Head-Quarters of th?
Italian army, dated Oft. 22, mention this
army of 12,000 men, exclusive of the Cis
alpine legions, to be in full motion in three
columns, one of which is to march to Na
ples.
BRUSSELS, November 3.
Yesterday at 4 a. m. the pelice officers,
justices of the peace and national troops were
aflembied. Lifts were haitded them of a cer
tain number of persons who should be arrett
ed—the arreftations commenced at 5 a. m.
and lasted through the whole day, several of
•he persons to be apprehended escaped, all
others were committed to the criminal prison.
It is not yet known whether these arrests
have have any connexion with the discovery
of a conspiracy, or whether the prisoners are
only confideredas hostages.
By another letter from BrufTels of Nov. 4
it appears that indifferent parts of Belgium,
larger bodies of rebeli under able leaders and
provided with cannon are aflembled. Gen- '
eral Collaud was making preparations to at
tack them ; ipean while a number of bloody
aftions had taken place near St. Amand, on
the Scheld.
Troops were marching from Paris towards
Belgium.

'' NOTES ,
On the Impeachability of a Senator of the 1
United States. t
Continued.] '
When we consult precedents hi England
and Englilh writers on the fubjea of Im
peachment, from whence the process has been ,
derived and adopted in America, We find it ,
certainly eftablilhed that any person, whether e
Lord or Commoner, is there impeachable for e
high, misdemeanors.
" All the king's Ribjefts are impeachable a
111 parliament, but with this diftinaion, that y
a jieer may be so accused before his paers of c
any crime ; a commoner, though perhaps it n
was formerly otherwile, can now be charged
with misdemeanors only, not with anv capi- „
tal offence." V n
" Such kind of misdeeds, however, as par-
ticularly injure the commonwealth by the
abuse of high offices of trust, are the most £
proper and have been "the most usual grounds a
tor this kind of prosecution, &c. &c. because n
it is apparent how little the ordinary tribunals
are calculated to take cognizance of such of
-1 fences, or to investigate and reform the ge- "
j neral policy of the state." 2 Woodefon
page 602.
In like manner we find the law of England
laid down by Sir William Bla&kftone, 4 \
Com. 160. -^
In that country all persons are liable to
impeachment, and no diftinaion is there ad- ?!
mitted exempting private-fubjeas from this
mode of trial, though most usually it is put J
in praaice against high officers of trust. It
is the nature of the crime that is considered
in determining whether it ought to be prose
cuted by impeachment, and not the qualit v of T
the offender, whether Lord or Commoner, w
filed- wi.Cthii a public officer or a jwivate-fukjfeA; L
ween I iioii'j h Coayaoaers are impeachable tor high I
low- crimes and utHilemeanors, it is not eSeiitial
roke that they Should have been committed con
'om- trary to the duties of any office or public
enqh trull. Official crimes or misdemeanors are
tual- not the i'ok and exclulive fubiefts of im
hich peachments In 1689 Adam Blair and other
Commoners were impeachedfor high treason
neg- tor having pti'oJHhcd a proclamation of James
t for the cond, and after great enquiry aed con
the iideration the prosecution was held regular.
; ar- *4 Lords a6o«i , < .
3 0 f i here is & ( i) important difference, however,
nch. between this extraordinary mode of trial in
nof -England and America, which deserves no
:iich tice. In Anirica, no punishment can be a
laft warded, affecting the liberty or life of a ci
tizen who fliall be convidled on impeachment,
therefore there is the less reason to con
st rue our constitution, so as to except any
person offending against the state, from this
lpecies of trial.
Upon looking into the state constitutions
prior to the constitution of the United
States, we firfd some of them declaring all
persons impeachable for any offences endanger
ing the safety of the state, in which they fol
low the custom of England ; while we find
others limiting impeachments inexprefs terms
to officers ofthe state tor official misdemeanors.
9- Ot the former kind are the constitutions of
1 Virginia and Delaware ; and of the latter
are those of New-liampfhire, Maffachiifetts,
and New-York,
end Virginia has declared " that the governor
F - when he is out of office, and others, offending
e " against the state, either by mal-adminiilrat;- '
on, or other means, by which the fafety of '
the state may be endangered, (hall be im- '
pcachable by the house of Delegates'."
Nearly in the fame words Delaware has de- '
dared, that " the President when out of of- J
iice, and within eighteen months after, and
all others offending against the state, either [
by mal adininiftration, corruption, or other J
means, by which the fafety of the eommoii
t wealth may be endangered, -within eighteen
months after the offence committed, fliall be
■ cl " impeachable by the house of AfTembly before
Ith the Legislative Council." In these conffitu- 1
•ty tions a time is limited, within which their 0
1 impeachment lhall be commenced, the crime "
is generally described for which there may be h
,h " an impeachment, viz. mal-adminiftration,
corruption, or other means endangering the
r ~ > ' state and under these provisions, all persons •
lce are impeachable. This was placing impeach- 11
la ~ ment as it ought to stand, up<jn principles-os b
re - found reason and general policy, and as it
was praclii'ed in that country from whence
ld " it hat been brought into this. Conformable
t0 to these ideas so reasonable and proper in 0
themselves, this kind of prosecution has
:ar been recognized and provided in the confti
:s > tution of the United States.
■ c * New-Hampshire has declared that " the w
tr Senate shall be a court with full power and v "
!S ' authority to hear, try and determine all im
«- peachments made by the House of Reprefen- &
:a " tatives against any officer or officers of the E
state for bribery, corruption, mal-praaic«, P :
ed or inal-adminiftration in office," &c.
hf Massachusetts has declared that " the Se
et nate fliall be a court with full authority to
u- hear and determine all impeachments made th
he by the House of Representatives against any ne
I i officer or officers of the Commonwealth, for th
n- mifcondudt and mal-adminiftration in office." U1
ly New-York to the like effeft. ta
6 . 5 ' s admitted have imposed J."
x- limitations and reftridtions relative to im
-n peachments, which they deemed necefTary
0 and proper, and because they hav? provided
thete limitation* and Teftriaions, it is in
e- ferred that without them, all persons would
or have been liable there to impeachment for of- '
7 fences endangering the state. "- 0
The convention who formed the conftitu- n,<
tion of the United States is presumed have blt
f understood not only the common lawdoftrine 12
relative to impeachment, but the differences
II which exrfted in the constitution of several
e * ate s on this fubjedl. Having omitted
;e wonls ot " 'imitation, as to perform, it is pre- n
- iumable they meant that no iuch reflations x \
Ihould exist, as were to be found in the state J.
"" constitutions of Massachusetts, New-Hamp- D,f
,e (hire and f y l,
1 In some states their constitutions are si- Me
d lent upon impeachments, and do not em
brace the fubjea at all, unless the express a- 3t
adoption ot the common law (hould be suppo
sed to embrace it iniperiedHy. of
Subsequent to the constitution of the U- JS
nited States, several- states, viz. Pennfylva-
? ilia, Kentucky, South-Carolina, have form- f nrr
ed new constitutions. It is remarkable tViat f j V
they have copied ftriftly from the words of
the Federal Constitution refpefling impeach- ~
ments, so far as they go ; and have added j e ip
a clause declaring the governor and all the }
' end officers to be liable to impeachmentybr ja
' in office, by ' which an impli
cation is railed, that impeachment is restrain
ed to officers and for official misdemeanors
only. i his may have been the intention f
and may be a reafonahle iniplicatibn ; but wiih
it so, it affords a strong argument that the Seco
constitution of the United States which has ftlte
not any such clause, has not limited im- —li!
peachments to officers and for official misde
meanors.
This view of the Englifti law and of the and
state constitutions has been taken for the pur
pose of illustrating the doarine which was ? e „ rl>
advanced relative to the impeaahability of
any person under the constitution ofthe U
nited States. If it does not afford conclu- 3'
sive, it certainly affords corroborative argu
ments of the truth of that proposition. , 1
