IMPEACHMENT TRIAL
TUE LATEST.
Our latest advices from Washington
are to the effect that the Senate Will fix
a period about twenty days from Friday
next for the beginning of the trial; and
that it will be completed within a month
from that time, or about the 10th of
May. .
There is no ground whatever to doubt
that the l'itisinENT will be found guilty,
and removed. We are reliably advised
that this is the opinion of the leading
Dermatitis in Washington, in anclout of
Congress.
We are further advised Of the proba,
bility of Vie PRESIDENT'S resignation,
before final judgment, so as to avoid the
danger of the Senate imposing as part of
the sentence, a perpetual disqualification
for holding office. He desires to be the
Democratic nominee ; and such a sen
tence would foreclose him.
On the whole, the prospect of having
a distinctive Republican Administration
at Washington by the middle of May
is about as certain as any future event
tan be. .
SENATOR MORTON'S GREAT SPEECH
We devote the outside of to-day's is
sue to the great speech of Senator MOR
TON, of Indiana, on Reconstruction, re
cently delivered in the U. S. Senate.—
It will amply repay a careful reading.—
It is beyond all question :the ablest. ef
fort which the Reconstruction debate has
called out. Asa vindication of the policy
of the Republican party, it is thorough
at d unanswerable—terse, logical, corn
piehensive, and convincing. Let no
one lay it by without a careful perusal.
THE Republican State Convention
meets in Philadelphia to-day. A. J. Co
vEn, Esq., is the Representative delegate
from this county, and Col. .MoCLuaE,
of Franklin county, the Senatorial dele
gate. Gen. GRANT Will be unanimously
endorsed for President, and the indica
tions are that Ea-Gov. CURTIN will be
presented as the choice of Pennsylvania
for Vice: President. Gen. HAR'rRANFT
will doubtless be nominated for Auditor
General and Col. Caraispla. for Survey
or General.
MAYOR HOFFMAN of New York, is
trying to become the Copperhead candi
date for Vice President ; and lets slip no
chance to make a speech. Hence, he
says many foolish thing. In a recent
one in New York, he said the assassin&
tion:of ABRAHAM LINCOLN and the im
peachment of ANDREW JOHNSON would
hereafter be equally odious to the Amer
ican people.
We are glad that atunstakno ho m-
curred to "develop" HOFFMAN'S horror
at Booth's crime, and if nothing else had
reconciled us to Impeachment this
would. But it is singular it did not oc
cur to HOFFMAN that there is a marked
difference between the two cases ; for
JOHNSON is to be fried, by the Constitu
tional' tribunal, for high crimes, and to
lose his official life if found guilty, while
LINCOLN was not tried, but was foully
murdered by a murderous incarnation of
the Spirit of the Rebellion.
THE Copperhead State Convention me
on the 4th, and nominated CHARLES E.
BOYLE of Fayette for Auditor General,
and WELLINGTON ENT of Columbia for
Surveyor General. These are very light
men. ENT's real strength in Conven
tion was 12 votes, which he received on
first ballot ; but the necessity of balanc
ing BOYLE with a General (!) ran ENT
up to 71 on the second. JOHN M. Coor
'Eß, of Chambersburg, received 36 votes
on the first, and 37 on the second, ballot.
Wm. P. SCHELL is the Presidential
elector for this Congressional District,
and GEORGE W. BREWER and JOHN R.
DOZTAHOE (who is he ?) are delegates to
the National Convention. The delegates
are instructed to votes as a unit on can
didates and the Platform, but are unin
atructed as to candidates. The resolu
tions are tame, and evasive. They ig
nore Joaxsolc ; but denounce Congress.
Probably the most impudent falsehood
in them is holding-Congress responsible
for the non-reconstruction of the Rebel
States; but we believe they, bad and bit
ter as th'e'y are, will be unable to perpet
uate disunion. The Congressional poli
cy, with a fair execution of the law
(which Jos_NsoN refuses), will restore
them all by July next. But for the Cop
perhead opposition, they would all be re
stored now.
Wm. A. WALLACE has been re-ap
pointed Chairman of the State Commit
tee, and H. J. STABLE 113 the member
for this county.
THE Copperheads of North Carolina
bay.reaoljed the high-water mark of
outrage sdilt insult to the loyal sentiment
of the whole country, in nominating for
Governor of that State ZERULON B.
Vaxca, who was its Governor during
the whole of the Rebellion, and who
Was One of Jeff. Davis's most efficient
agents in keeping up Southern determi
nation, and thereby prolonging the war.
Velma did violence to his better nature
in joining the Rebellion. Like STE
PHENS of Georgia, he resisted it in its
earlier stages. But when he drowned
his conscience, stifled the prompting' of
patriotism, and gave his adherent* to
the cause of Treason, none was more
faithful to its fortunes, and none more
identified with its crimes. At the close
of the War, he refused to accept the sit
uation in a loyal spirit, and he has done
much to obstruct the reconstruction of
North Carolina.
It is monstrous to clothe with power
and deck with honors the very men who
gave Treason its power over the Union
ists, and Move the South into a four
years' carnival of blood. Yet this is the
inspiration of the whole of the Copper
head organization, North as well as
South—the only differenoe being that the
Southern Copperheads are a little more
fully blown than their Northern breth
ren. Their Common .purposes are alike
infamous; and demand the ludiguant

If so, the PRESIDENT has no right to
disobey the law,; and, when does, it
Is at his peril. Here Is the whole contro
versy. No .President, before JOHNSON,
ever undertook to create a vacancy by
removal during the session of the Senate
and fill it by an ad interim appointment.
This was never authorized by any stat
ute, but was expressly prohibited by the
Civil Tenure Act. So that, leaving the
latter law out of the question, his act is
none the less illegal. The only question
remaining is as to his purpose, upon
which those =wbo know his desperate and
shameless courses the last two years can
have no doubt.
On this duty of obedience to law, ROB
ERT J. WA_LKER, Polk's Secretary of the
Treasury and a distinguished Democrat,
has recently well said that :
." The President has no right to - disobey
a law of Congress Upon . the assumption
that it was unconstitutional, and that if
this were not so the President might set
aside all the laws of Congress since the
foundation of the Government, upon the
ground that they were unconstitutional That
the President possessed no. power, be
cause it was not an executiAlpht exclusive-,
ly a judicial power, and that all the laws
of Congress infiat be obeyed and executed
by the President, unless their execution was
restrained by the highest judicial authority.
That to declare a law unconstitutional
was not only the exercise of judicial power,
but the highest judicial power, and only to
be resorted to by the courts where, in their
judgment, the act was clearly unconstitution
al, and that in all doubtful cases the court had
uniformly refused to interfere with the execu
tion of the law."
IT will be recollected that when the
vote was taken on the original resolution
of Impeachment, our representative,
Hon. WILLIA - at H. KOONTZ, was absent,
attending the Somerset Court.' Upon
Mr. K.'s return to Washington he had
his name recorded in favor of the adop
tion of the resolution, and on the 2dinst.,
pending the discussion of the Impeach
ment articles, Mr. Koorrrz got the floor,
and made a brief but earnest argument
in favor of their adopticin by the House.
We regret that the pressure on our col
umns precludes its publication in full.—
We give the closing paragraph :
"I have, then, shown conclusively, Mr.
Chairman, that this proceeding is not only
within the provisions of the Constitution, but
that the circumstances attendant upon the
President's course, prior to and at the time of
his attempted removal of Mr. Stanton, evince
a determination to wilfully violate the law ;
and I now wish to say, in conclusion, to gen
tlemen on the other side of this House who
insist that the people `never, never will stand
the impeachment of Andrew Johnson,' that
these fears are not well founded. This nation
has stood against greater shocks. It remain
ed firm in the midst of a civil war unequalled
in history. Its peace and stability were un
disturbed at the murder of its honored Chief
Magistrate, an event which in other nations
would - have produced revolution, bloodshed,
and anarchy ; and if its people could bear
stiihnnt inmult land --- • •
of an honored and faithful Executive, I ask
inn they not bear the removal, under the
forms of law, of a dishonored and faithless
one ? All that we demand is that the laws of
the country be faithfully executed ; and if the
highest officer in the Government has will
fully viclated any of them and subjected him
self to removal from office, a law-abiding and
intelligent people will acquiesce in the ver
."
Gov. SWANK, of Maryland,
_has been
again defeated in his Senatorial aspira
tions, having been trotted out by his
friends - to fill the vacancy created by the
non-admission of Hon. P. F. Thomas.
After several days' balloting, on Friday
last Swarm was dropped, and Hon.
GEORGE VICKERS, of Kent county, was
elected—the vote on lastballot standing,
Vickers 59, Thomas 41, Earle 2. Mr.
VICKERS was originally a Whig and an
earnest outspoken Union man during the
early part of the War, but went over to
the Democracy on the issues growing
out of the Slavery question, and has
since been acting with them. He has
the reputation of being an able lawyer
and a gentleman of Mined courtesy.
TEE Pennsylvania Democratic Con
vention has resolved That "in enacting
the Tenure of Office law, the executive
and legislative branches of the Govern
ment each had a right to judge of its con
stitutionality." Very trim The Presi
dent, judging of its constiintionallty for
himself, disobeys the act. The House,
judging for itself, impeaches him for it;
and the Senate, judging of the same
question for itself, will, we hope, convict
and remove him from office.
WE have reoehr from our esteemed
friend JOSEPH S. Grrr, Esq., of New Ox
ford, a severe rejoinder to a scurrilous
and grimily personal attack on him by an
anonymous correspondent in the last
Compiler, which we withhold for the
present, deeming its publication unneces
sary to Mr. G.'s v_indication as a high
toned gentleman. Such attacks are beat
met by silent contempt.
GENERAL GRANT has recently overru
led Several of EfeNcocz's orders of re
movals in New Orleans, and HANCOCK
sought consolation by polite attentions
to JEFFERSON Dews who is now in that
city. What a pity JOHNSON hasn't par
doned Davis, and made hini eligible and
a delegate to the Copperhead National
Convention! 'Ete would be welcomed
with open arms andimight be made its
President.
THE New Hampshire State election
took place yesterday. We hope to re
ceive the result before going to press.—
The canvass has been very active on both
sides. Both parties claim the State,
which has been very close for the last
five years. In 1863 it went Democratic
by 2,798, but in 1884 Ltucionx carried it
by 3,560. Last year it went Republican
by 8,146.

On Thursday last, at'] o'clock, 4 iiitief ins
tice Chase made his appearance in the Senate'
chamber, clad in his loosely flowing black
silk robes of office and supported_on the arra
of Senator Pomeroy, chairnian of the com
mittee
appointed to inform him of thC action
of the Senate. He was followed by 'Associ
ate Justice Nelson, of the .Supreme Court,
and Senators Wilson and Buckalew, also of.'
the Senate Committee: A death-like - stillness
reigned throughout the chamber, the galleries' 1
being densely crowded and every available
seat on the floor being occupied by Senators
and members of the House.
The Chief Justice advanced slowly up the
middle isle, and as he did so 31. r. rWade an
nounced that all business would besuspended
and the Senate would proceed to the trial of
the impeachment preferred against Andrew
Johnson. After saying this, Mr. Wade vaca
ted the chair, which was then taken by the
Chief Justice, who stated that in obedience
to the summons served upon him by the Sen-
ate he was ready to proceed with the trial of
Andrew Johnson, President of the United
States, and was prepared to take the oath re
quired by the Constitution. Associate Justice
Nelson then administered the oath to him,
standing at his right hand and reading it from
a manuscript copy.
Amid an almost oppressive stillness, that
seemed most aptly calculated to impress all
with the solemn and momentous ceremonies
that were taking place, the Senators, one by
one, as their names were called in alphabeti
c al order, advanced from their seats to the
Chief Justice's desk, where he administered
the same oath as he had himself taken, read
ing it in a distinct but not fond tone of voice.
When the name of Senator Wade was called,
Mr. Hendricks rose and made objection to his
being Avon', on the ground of interest, inas
much as Senator Wade, in case of the Presi
dent's conviction, would succeed to the Presi
dential office. A prolonged discussion ensu
ed, lasting until the hour of adjournment.
On Friday, at 1 P. IL, the Senate again re
solved itself into a Court of Impeachment,
Chief Justice Ohm presiding. After some
further discussion Mr. Hendricks withdrew
his objection to the swearing in of Mr. Wade,
and the roll of Senators was completed,
whereupon the Chief Justice rose and said—
Senators having taken the oath required by
the Constitution, the Senate is now organized
for the p ee of proceeding to the trial of
the im , 4 ent of Andrew Johnson, Presi
dent o the United States. The Sergeant at-
Arms will make proclamation.
Tas SERGEANT-AT-ARMS--Hear ye ! Hear
ye ! Hear ye ! All persons are commanded
to keep silence on pain of imprisonment
while the &Atte of the United States is engag
ed in the consideration of articles of impeach
ment against Andrew Johnson, President of
the United States.
At the suggestion of the Chief Justice, the
Court unanimously adopted the rules for the
trial, which had been previously adopted , by
the Senate.
At 2:45 P. M., the . Managers of Impeach
ment, on the part of the House of Represen
tatives, with the exception of Mr. Stevens,
were announced.
The Cams. JrsTlcz—The Managers of Im
peachment will please come forward and
take the seats provided for them within the
bar.
The Managers then came forward and took
their seats.
Mr. BMGHAM, Chairman of the Managers
then said—We are instructed by the House of
Representatives, as its Managers, to demand
that the Senate take process against Andrew
Johnson, President of the United States, that
he may answer at the bar he., Senate time
Artieles of Impeachment heretofore present
ed at the bar of the Senate by the Managers
on the part of the House of Representatives.
Mr. HOWARD then offered an order' that a
summons be issued, according to the rules' of
procedure in the trial of cases of impeach
ment, against Andrew Johnson, President of
the United States, returns'ble on Friday,
March 18th instant, at the hour of 1 o'clock
in the afternoon, which was adopted, and , the
Senate, sitting as a Court, adjourned until
Friday next.
TEE PICEBIDENT BI7NIMONED
At four o'clock on Saturday afternoon, the
Sergeant-at-Arms of the Senate called at the
White House and delivered to the President
the summons of the High Court. of Impeach
ment to appear before it on Friday, the 13th
instant. The President quietly remarked
that it would receive attention, and the Ser
geutt-at-Arms retired.
Some of the President's friends state that he
will respond in person to the writ, and that he
will then wait the action of the Senate in
giving him time to file his gnawer. He claims
that the proceedings in this ease should be
conducted exactly the same as similar pro
ceedings in cases before ordinary courts.—
When called on to file his reply, he will re
spond with a demurrer that thecharges agabtst.
him do not amount to high crimes and mis
demeanors in the meaning of the Constitn,
that.
THZ CENTS ARTICLE
Some discussion, has occurred among the
Managers on the part of the House upon the
advisability of withdrawing the tenth article,
the ono introduced by General Butler, con
taining quotations from the President's
•speeches, as in the estimation of Congress
men generally it opens the door to a wide
field for investigation in case the President
Chooses to hamper proceedings and protract
the trial. It heti been intimated by those in
the confidence of the President That on that
article alone he intends to subverts' as many
witnessed as will consume the time of the
Court three mon t 4. The Board of Managers
however, in reply to these assertions, say that
they will admit all on that article that the
President may wish to prove by a cloud of
witnesses, and that therefore they will not al
low him to waste time on that point. The
matter, however, is still under advisement ;
but though the question has not been definite
ly
decided it is nearly certain that the tri.
will be made as short as possible.
I.OBMON OF CHUM A:TOFU= CRASS.
It having leaked out that there has been
some disagreement between Chief Justice
Chase and the Senate as to the rules adopted
by the latter, the Copperheads, With their
usual propensity to pervert facts, have under
taken
to represent the Chief Justice as hostile
to the Impeacthment movement and disposed
to interpose. difficulties end delay. The
Washingtoncorrespondent of the Boston Ad--
vertiaer gives the facts in the case :
It seems * that when the Senate Oommtttee
to prepare rules first met, it was suggested
that it would not be improper to consult with

INIPEACIIIIRIN'T TRIAL.
Since the adoption of the Constitution there
have been five trials of impeachment by the
Senate. The first of these 'was that of Wm.
Blount, a Senator from Tennessee. It com
menced December 17th, 1795, and concluded
January 14th, 1799. The next was - the trial
of John Pickering, judge of the New Hamp
shire district, which lasted from March 3d
to March 12th, 1803. The third was that of
Samuel Chase, one of the Associate Judges
of the Supreme' Court:of the United States,
which was commenced November 30th, 1804,
and lasted Until March lst, 1805. The fourth
was' he trial of James" H.' Peck, Judge of the.
Missouri district, which NX:EtIS prolonged
through two sessions, viz : from .May llth to
May'2sth, 1830, and from Decembar 30th of
the same year to January 31st, 1881. The
last trial by the. Senate was on the impeach
ment of Judge Humphreys; of the Tennessee
district, about the year 1853; we think ; but
the record is not before us.
LENGTH OF Tll TRIAL
There is• midi diversity of opinion as to
the duration of the trial, and although no ac
curate estimate can be formed at this time, it
is most likely that the trial will last until the
middle or last of April. No one hero who
has an opportunity to judge and who'ean iook
upon the issue impartially, doubts a convic
tion.
AD DiTERLY TIIOMAii TO BE RECOGNIZED
It is said the President has finally'determiu
ed to recognize ad interim, Thomas as Sec-
retary of War, by inviting him to attend the
regular Cabinet meetings. , What demonstra
tion he will make to get possession of the
Wert. Department none can tell; probably
none beyond his usual demand. He may
open a War office in the White House, or in
the Navy Department, both of which are open .
to hlm.
Secretary Stanton remains at the War De
partment day and night, having his meals
brought to him, and holds levees day and
night, which are attended by hosts of friends,
including members of both llmses, promi
nent among whom is Senator Wade.
For over a week past Adjutant-Gene ral
Thomas has only called and humbly asked
for his private letters, which are riven him
by Assistant Adjutant-General Towmend,
who acts as Adjutant-General. The room of
Thomas is.being kept locked up and the key
is in the personal castAy of Mr. Stanton,
who refuses to give it to him unless he will
resame his duties as Adjutant-General and*
abantlon - his assumptions to the office of the
Secretary of War.
1 112 PitEIIIEENTs INTENTION
The IrYashingtou correspondents of various
papers,. Republican and Democratic. agree
that it is, the President's purpose.. to object to
every Senator who has expressed au opinion
the Senate, as pow constituted, in the absence
of representatives from ten States, is not com
petent to try hlra—bOthof which pleas will of
course be over-ruled. It is said that promi
nent Democrats are urging him, after making
these points, to refuse to submit to a trial, in
view of the certainty- of conviction, but to
tender his resignation, and appeal from the
Senate to the people. Conviction will debar
hint. from forever holding office, while a res
.
iguation and appeal tb the country would
strengthen his chances fur the Democratic
nomination for the Preaddoncy. Good advice,
but not likely to, be follow -pd.
All the counsel of the President have not
yet been selected, but .T.udge It. It. Curtis, of
MassaelnueLts, and David Dudley 'Field, of
New York, have been regularly retained.

A SOUTHERN DEYIOCRAT
• While conversing with a highly distinguish
ed Southern gentleman yesterday afternoon,
a native of Georgia, (says "Occasional," the
Washington Corresponaent, of the Philadel
phia PreBB 7 ) I could 'not restrain the wish
that what he said to me could be heard by the
Democrats of the old free States.
Re said : "The removal of Andrew John
son would be lifting from the Southern people
a greater load than any under which they have
ever suffered. We are like men struggling
with a fiend--uur steps are watched, our
words noted, our livea threatened, our labor
plundered, our best men slandered, our great
improvements retarded,our friends kept away,
our brethren driven,off—:all because Andrew
Johnsion pardons, pays, and pushes on our
enemies. We shall make Georgia* Repub
lican State by a tremendous vote, but no
tongue can tell what we have had to endue
to accomplish itand yet wo are better off than
our brethren of Mississippi, Texas,and Lotisi
arta., In the first the reign -of terror is more
severe than it ever was during:: the rebellion,
while General Hancock, excited to :his. bad
work by Andrew Johnson, refuses to arrest
it. Give us a Republican in the Tresidenbll
chair,and we shall require nothing from Cot
grew. Millions will be immediately saved to
the public treasury, and there will be spin
stud submission on the part of the public
enemies. All that is needed to make the
South bloom like a garden, is to notify the
emigrant and the capitalist that they will be
protected by the laws. I belonged to the.De
mocratie party in its best days, voted for
James Buchanan in 1866, and for John 0.
Breekinridge in 1860 ; but when I realized that
the overthrow of the Democratic party was
simply to prepare the way for the rebellion; I
took my stand, and now, regretting the , de
lusion under which I labored, I am resolved
to do a ll I can to repair my mistake."
Toy, desperate straits of a desperate party

are being brought to light every day by the at

PRESBYTERIAN REUNION.—The joint com
mittee of the Old and New School Presbyte
rians, appointed by the general assemblies of
1566,. and continued by the assemblies of 1867,
are to meet in Philadelphia to-day, for the
purpose of making a final report. The re
sulis of the Pan-Presbyterian Convention, in
Philadelphia, in November last, and the
many ratification meetings since hold, East
and West, are said to have made sure the
union of the Old and New Schools, though
the United and Reformed Presbyterians may
not come in for the present. ••
ME Democrats of Philadelphia have placed
at the head of their delegation to the Nation
al Convention, Alderman William McMullen.
This is a very worthy selection. Mr. McMul
len has been distinguished in public life. He
was the referee in the celebrated prize fight
between Collyer and Barney Aaron, at Aquia
Creek, has been engaged in innumerable
rough and tumble tights on his 'own account,
and is an adept in all kinds of political dice
teq. The Democrats of Philadelphia will
probably send-him to Congress to keep Mr.
Morrissey in countenance.
GniNr,'sA Cinctis RIDER. —.Mr. J. R. Grant,
father of, General Grant, is writing a life of
his illustrious son, for the New York Ledger.
The following anecdote, is toll of the Hero
of' Vicksburg and Richmond:
"Once, when he was a boy, a show came
alongin which there wasamischieveous pony
trained to go round the ring like lightning
and ht. was expected to throw' any boy tha
.r'--,oted in Mac 1,h..
"Will any boy come forward and ride this
pony ? shouted the ring -master.
Ulysses stepped forward, and mounted the
pony. The performance began. Round and
round and round the ring went the pony, fas
ter and faster, making the greatest effort to
dismoimt the rider. But Ulysses sat as
steady as if he had grown to the pony's hack.
Presently, out came a large monkey and
sprang up behind I.7lyases. The people set
up a great shout of laughter, and on the pony
ran ; hitt it all produced no effect on the ri-
der. Then the ring -master made the monkey
jump up on to Ulysses' shoulders, standing
with his feet on his-shoulders, and with his
hands holding on to his hair. At this there
was another and still louder shout, but not a
muscle of Ulysses' face moved. There was
not a tremor of his nerves. A few more
rounds, and the ring -master gave it up ; he
had come across a boy that *e pony and the
monkey both could not dismount.
A. SNAKE Caalvxs me •AN LTFANT . EI STOM -
Acu.—The BuctiruS (Ohio) AFterTtac states
that during the great snow a lad near that
place went out to a potato mound to get po
totoes ; after clearing away the snow, and
breaking into the mound, he found a kind of
nest in the straw, in which was a compact
ball which he took to be a largo ball of
string such as our wool men use. He brought
this in with the potatoes, and laid it on the
baby's cradle near the stove. His mother
just then sent him off to a neighbor and con
tinned about her work. He was gone an
hour, and when he returned, upon looking:
for his ball, he found it had resolved itself in
to a pile of.squirming snakes, many of which
were seeking the warmth of the infant's
body, one having actually entered the infant's
mouth. A . cry of alarm from the boy at
tracted the attention of the mother toward
the cradle, and• seizing the child she sought to
extricate the reptile, but was too late, and it
actually drew itself within the baby's mouth
and down its throat. Dr. Ingraham was sent
tor, but he recognized the snake as being the
common "eerpens noctus;" and therefore
perfectly harmless. - He declined worrying
the baby with medicine, and the child seemed
unhurt by its singular accident. The mother
declares, however, that its appetite is much
increased, and that in its sleep it frequently
hisses lOndly.
Ax interesting and Importtint discussion on
the Alabama claims took place in the British
House of Commons on Friday last. Mr.
Shaw Lefevre made an eloquent speech urg
ing the settlement of the question on the plan
propOsed by our Government. Lord Stanley
replied , on the part of the Government in a
temperate speech, complimenting our Minis.
ter, Mr. Adams, for the conciliatory course
he ha 4 pursued but asserting the neutrality
of England• during the war and defending the
refusal to submit the matter to arbitration.—
He thought a friendly arrangement, of the,dif
acuity is still practicable, and spoke of the
reception of Mr. Thornton at •Washington as
a pledge of peace. Mr: W. E. Forster
thought that the claims• of the United - Stites
descried better treatment and more careful I
consideration than they, T ad received. Mr. I
John Stuart Mill spoke of the hasty recogni
