-PERSEVERE.-
The Trial 'of Andrew Johnson.
WASITINCITON, Maroh 30, 1868.—At
12:30 the President pro tempore vaca
ted the chair, which was immediately,
taken by, the Chief Justice.
The Sergeant•at-arms made procla-
mation commanding silence. •
The President's counsel entered and
took their• seats as before, at 12:45, and
the Sergoant-at-arms announced the
managers on the part of the House ?f
Representatives, who took their places
with the exception of Mr. Stevens, who
entered soon •afterwards and took a
seat slightly apart from the managers'
tables.
The House of _Representatives were•
then announced;.and the members ap
peared, beaded by Mr. Washburne, of
Illinois, on the arm of tho clerk of tho
House, and wore seated.
The minutes of the last day of trial
wero read, and Mr. Butler commenced
his opening at a quarter before 1.
GENERAL BUTLER'S SPEECH
Mr. Butler opens his argument by
alluding to the onerous duty that has
fallen upon him, and the novelty of
the proceedings in which, for the first
time in the history of the world, has a
nation brought before its highest tri
bunal its Chief Executive for trial on
charges of maladministration of the
powers and duties of his office. The
Constitution provides that the Presi
dent, Vico Presidont, and all civil offi
cers shall be removed from office on
impeachment for and conviction of
treason, bribery and other high crimes
and misdemeanors.
The House of Representativea'shall
solely impeach, the Senate only shall
try, nd in case of conviction the judg
ment shall alone be removal from of
fice and disqualification for office, one
or. both. Those' mandatory became
necessary to adapt a well known pro
cedure of the mothei country to the
institutions of the then' infant republic.
But a single incident only of the busi
ness was left to construction, and that
concerns thePoffenseEi or incupacities
which aro the groundwork of impeach
ment. This was wisely done because
human
,foresight is inadequate,' and
butnaa intelligence fails in the task of
anticipating and providing for, by pos
itive enactment, all the infinite grada
tions of human wrong and - sin, by
which the liberties of a people, and the
safety of a nation May be endangered
from the imbecility, corruption and
unhalloWed 'ambition of-ita worlso.-
He then examines - the qUestion--
"What arc unbearable offences under
the provisions of our Constitution
He states that ho will give the result
to which he has anived, and at the,
close of his argument the authorities
and discussions both 'in this country
and in England, from which the bian•
[tows deduce their propositions, pPo
pared• by the Ilon.•Williaim Lawrence,
of Ohio, member of the House JudiCia
ry Committee, in which he fully con•
curs and adopts.
We define, therefore, an impeachable
crime or misdemeanor to be one in its
nature or consequences subversive of
some fundamental or essential princi
ple of Government, or highly prejudi
cial to the public interests, and this
may consist of a violation of the Con
stitution or laws, of an official oath, or
of duty, by an act committed or'omit:
ted, or, without violating' a positivo
law, by Die abuse of discretionary
powers from improper motives, or for
any improper purpose.
In examining the question, Mr. But
ler quotes Mr. Madison, who, in the
first Congress, when discussing the
power of the President to remove an
officer, uses the following words :"The
danger consists mainly in this—that
the President can displace from office
a - man whose merits require he should
be continued in it. In the first place,
ho Will be impeached by the House for
such an act of maladministration : for
I contend that the wanton removal of
a meritorious officer would subject him
to impeachment and removal from his
own high trust."
In considering the question, Is this '
body now sitting to determine the ac
cusation of the House of Representa
tives against the President, the Senate
of the United State's as a Court ? ho
says :—"We , claim and respectfully in
sist that this tribunal has none of the
attributes of a judicial court, as they
aro commonly received and under
stood. Of course this question must
bo legally determined by the express
provisions of the Constitution, and in
it there is no word, as is well known
to you, Senators, which gives the
slightest coloring to the idea that this
is a court save that on the trial of this
particular respondent, the Chief Jus
tice of the,Supreme Court must pre
side. But even this provision can
have no determining .effect upon this
question, because is not this the same
tribunal in all its powers, incidents
and duties, when other civil officers
aro brought to its bar fur trial, when
the Vice President (not a judicial offi
cer) must preside ? • Can it be conten
ded for a moment that this is the Son
ate of the United States when sitting
on the trial of all other Meet's, and a
Court only when the'President is at
the bar, solely because in this case the
Constitution has designated the Chief
Justice as the presiding officer?
Ile then states that the first eight'
articles sot out in several distin9t forms
the acts of the respondent In removing
Mr. Stanton frbm office and appointing
Mr. Thomas ad interim, differing in
legal effect in the purposes for which,
and the intent with which, either or
both of the acts , woro dope, and the le
gal duties infringed, and the acts
of Congress violated in so doing. Af
top specifying those articles in detail,
he says, that in addition to the proof
already adduced, it will be shown that
after the appointment of Thomas tho
President caused a formal notir.A In ho
served on 'the •Secrettr:ry bf'theTroasu
ry, to the end that the' Secretary might
answer the rbquisition; for inoney of
Thomas, and this was only prevented
by the firmness With' which) Stanton
retained possession of the books and
papers of the War Office.
It will be seen that'oVery fact char
ged in article 1 isladinitted by the an
swer of the respondent; 'the intent is
also admitted as' charged; that. is to
say, to set aside the Civil Tenure of
Office act, and to remove Mr. Stanton
from the office of the Seerettiry for the
Department of War, without the ad
vice and'etinsenVof the Senate,' and, if
not justified; contrary to the proviSion,
of the Constitution itself. 'Oh thiS'tho'
respondent avers, , that by the' Consti
tutiOni there is "conferred on the Pre
sident as a part of the Executive pow-.
or, the power at any and all times of
removing from - office all Executive offi
cers for cause, to be judged • 'of by the
President alone, and that he verily be
lieves that the power of re
moval from office confided to him by
the Constitution includes the power of
suspension' from office indefinitely.",
The plain and inevitable issue before
the Senate and the American' people,
Has the President, under the Consti
tution, the more than kingly preroga
tive, at will, to remove from office and
suspend from office indefinitely, 'all ex
ecutive officers of the United States,;
either civil, military or naval, at any
and all times,• and . fill , the vacancies
with creatures of his own appointment
for his own purposes; and without any
restraint whatever,' Or' possibility 'of '
restraint ; by tho Senate or by Congress
through laws duly :enacted It the
affirmative is maintained, then , so far
as the first eight articles are concern
ed—unleis such 'corrupt purposes 'are
shown'as will of theMdelves - make the
exercise of a legal power a crime--; the
respondent MUst 'go and 'ought . to go
quit free. ' • •. ,
• Therefore, by these -eight 'articles
and the answers there tho momentous
question, here and no*, is raised whe
ther the Presidential office (it it has
the prerogatives ' and • poWers chimed

Mr. Burleigh, delegate from Dabotah,
was the nextrwitriess. On being asked
if he knew - Gen. Thomas, Mr. Stan

DOSS.
Mr. Butler announced that they ex
pected to prove that, Gen. Thomas ,in
tended to obtain possession of tho War
Office by force.
Mr. Stanberry objected to the testi
mony of the witness, and the Chief
Justice decided that the evidenCe was
inadmissible..
Mr. Drake made a point , that the
Chief Justice had no power to decide
such a question. He proceeded to
speak in support of his view, but was
called to order by Mr. Johnson, the
question not being debatable.
Mr. Chase stated the position to be
that the Chief Justice, as preSiding of
ficer, had avight to decide legal points,
and that any Senator differing could
appeal to the Senate'whether such de
cision should Stand as the sense 'of the
court.
Mr.,Butler rose add asked, if this
right also extended to managers, and
the 'Chief Justice said, he thought 'it
did not. -
Mr. Butler proceeded to speak, in•
opposition to the decision of the Chair.
He did not corisider.the Chief Justice
a member of the court, and insisted, ati
a vital point, that he could not stand
between,the managers and the Senate,
to prevent them .forn subinitting, on
the part of the House ; of Representa-•

courtesy of some of the Senators: Ho
