Sober Thoughts for the Country.
MESSRS. EDITORS.—PUbIiO exCi Ce
ment with regard to the one question
of the day—that of impeachment—
BOOMS to bo at a standstill in the capi
tal, except in the immediate vicinity
of the capitol, when the Senate is in
judicial session. The country, as well
as the city, is heartily tired all,. But
its mark is heavily felt in business cir
cles, and it only sleeps that it may
awake as the finale approaches.
There are some thoughts relating to
it, and illustrated by it, however,
which very much need- to be said—to
be said now, and to be said by our re
ligious press. They are thoughts
which are applicable to mon of both
parties; and in the expression, they
are here without partisanship. In or
dinary times, and much more peri
ods of high excitement, wo are too apt
to regard all the national issues which
arise, in the blaze of passion and party
prejudice, rather than in the clear
steady light of reflection and candid
judgment. As in the selection of can
didates for office, as a rule, availability
rather than moral and political cape.
bility is considered, so in the decision
of oar political issues party necessity,
or expediency, rather than abstract
moral right, is too often made to de
cide the question in our minds, and
consequently in our votes. Little room
is left, in. the operation of party ma
chinery, for the independent exercise
of our moral sense. We must vote as
party goes, else we are denounced as
untrue and weak-kneed, and not trust
worthy. Failure to approve and en
dorse every party movement which
expediency may demand, is met with
reproach, and too often with personal
abuse. This is so called party disci
pline—and it is strict, to the verge of
tyranny. As a people, we are in ad
mirable training. Our leaders have
little olso to do than pull the reins to
the right or left, while the press lashes
the refractory with delightsome zest;
and fierce party men run beside the
balky with clubs and stones, till the
party car gets clean through the mud
or over the stones. And not unfre
quently religious men aro so carried.
away Villa] party zeal, that it is as
much as one's goad fame is 'worth
among his party friends to daro to hold
and express an independent view that
his party loaders have not mapped out
for_ his guidance. To ho "shaky," is to
be unsound and unreliable. It won't
do for the party leaders to allow any
body to be skaky. Every body must
stand up to the rack; and more espe
cially if that body, who ever he may
be, should chance to be a man in polit
cal life, holding office or aspiring there.
The illustration of this in the pres
ent state of affairs is striking in the
extreme. Take facts as they are ad
mitted by all. The present crisis in
our national life is most serious. We
aro moving on experimental ground
hitherto untrodden. The President is
on trial for his political life. The Sen
ate, with the Chief Justice presiding,
are trying him. An eminent English
statesman is reported as having said
that, under different governments from
ours, such a state of affairs usually
ends ire revolution. The President
may prove to be a Cromwell or a
Charles. He may overthrow or bo
overthrown, Upon the decision of the
Senate depends the issue. On that is
sue the national peace, perhaps its ex
istence, trembles. How shall the ques.
Lion be decided Shall it bo upon the
ground of party ascendency, or of ab
stract legal justice ?
Suppose now that any ono of the
Senators belonging to the opposition
should feel it to be his duty, under his
oath as a judge in this case, to vote for
conviction, how would that vote be
regarded by his party ? This is a
question which doubtless every such
member is forced to consider. Would
it be tolerated by the party powers?
Would any have the moral courage to
face the personal issue relating to him
self, which such a course would raise.
We would fain hope that every Sena
tor would be just enough to decide the
question on the abstract justice or in
justice of the case, aside from the pros
sure of party necessity. Is this too
much to hope in the present condition
of party conflict?
On the otherhand, suppose any Sen
ator of the party in power should feel
it to be his duty to vote against con
viction, how would his case stand be
fore the oyes of his party ? We have
indications of the nature of such deci
sion nlrondy presented to us. In tilt
case of the Chief Justice, sitting on the
very throne of judicial power, by rea
son of several acts, ho has already been
denounced as prejudiced—as being in
fineneed by personal considerations;
and scheming for political preference
has been widely attributed to him by
oertain portions of the press, The
party screw is thus being applied oven
to him, indirectly at least. What if
any of the Republican Senatore should
falter ? Will the country sestain them,

or in hesitating, will they not pro
nounce their own political doom? If
the President should be convicted and
removed, the undivided power of the
government would fall into the hands
of the party convicting him during the
course of the comingpolitical campaign.
In view of the unreconstructed posi
tion of the Southern States, many party
men boldly declare such a course to bo
an absolute necessity for the safety of
the country. And they regard what
they are pleased to suppose the ulti
mate safety of the nation to require, as
rising in its demands above any strict
operation of judicial logic. To fail to
convict the "illustrious respondent,"
they argue, would insure the downfall
of the party, and that would insure
the downfall of the principles of liber
ty in the land.
Can we over be self-possessed enough
to remember, that the only security of
any nation lies in doing justly before
God? IS the moral sense of the nation
so dead, or so befogged by the mists of
party excitement, or so fettered by the
chains of party discipline, that the
Christian people in the land will fail
to sustain in their esteem and confi
dence those who darn to do what
seems right and just to them, oven
though it may seem to boar unfavour
ably for the time upon groat interests
immediately at stake. The future is
long, and what course may best insure
justice, and truth, and security to the
nation, is known only to God. Our
duty is simply to he faithful to right
and truth, and to abide the result. The
end does not sanctify - the means.
Under the present pressure of af
fairs, in the midst of what is always
au exciting and tryieg- season, that of
the Presidential campaigs, no nobler
sight could be afforded, nor one more
brilliantly illustrating the intrinsic rec
titude and stability of our national in
stitutions, than the acquittal of the
President, it the evideneo and argu
ment thereon should fail of rendering
his conviction a clear duty to the na
tion. It would display the majesty of
justice, and the independence of our
free institutions in such a light before
the eyes of tho world that none could
either fail to admire our present, or
cease to repose confidence in our fu
ture. And we have assurance enough
of the power of the moral sense exist
ing in the midst of our people to in
sure the sustaining of such a course,
on the part of those who dared to do
right, notwithstanding the political
clamor of those . whose intolerance
would transform .our liberty into ty
ranny, could they but rule. For there
is no tyranny more galling and more
intolerant than that of party spirit
seeking its own ends. Its iron rod is
that of selfish ambition, that is alike
insatiable and fanatical. It is insatia.
blo because it never ceases to cry
"Give, give ;" it is fanatical, because it
runs its own ambition under the guise
of a conscientious principle, or the_ de
mands of abstract human rights; shout
ing fir the people, but driving for self.
But, on the other hand, if the Presi
dent be clearly found guilty of wilful
infraction of the laws of the land, and
of malfeasance in his high office, then
his conviction by his judges will be sus
tained as just and right by those who
can so far divest themselves of- parti
zanship as to look upon the truth that
ever lies between extremes, no matter
to which party they may belong.
The question at issue in the trial at
hand, is not whether the President has
forsaken the party that elected him,
clogged the wheels• of its legislation,
and thrown himself in the path of its
progress and its -prosperity ; nor, in
deed, is it the more serious question as
to whether he is responsible for the de
lay of the healing of our national
wound until it has become a chronic
ulcer; nor is he upon these grounds to
be convicted in, this trial. Neither, on
the other hand, is the question, as oth
ers may view it, whether ho has oppo
sed oppressive enactments and stood
up for the rights of the downfallen,
and saved the Executive Department
of the government from absorption by
the Legislature; nor is ho on this
ground to be_ acquitted in this trial.
Yet these are the political aspects in
which he is regarded by those of op
posing parties. To decide in this case,
its governed simply by these views,
would be to decide in_a - spirit of parti
zanship. •
The question in which ho is being
tried, however, is simply ono of law.
lfas the President broken the law, and
in so doing, defied it, and drawn .his
own sword against justice as enacted
in the codes ? It involves the -legal
question as to the dividing line be
tween the authority of the Executive
and Legislative department of the gov
ernment. It is theinterpretation of the
Constitution which is in legal dispute,
as well as the intention of the Presi
dent, in pursuing a course which seems
to be in conflict with legislative enact
ment. This is the abstract question.
Of course, its political relations. aro
most important. But it should con
fessedly be decided not by political
preference, but by constitutional jus
tice. And wo should all bear this in
mind, in regarding the - question at is
sue, and in preparing ourselves for the
decision, and the issues to grow out of
it. When this matter is thus in course
of solemn judicial decision, it will not
be very modest in any of us to be too
dogmatical in our decision of the ques
tion beforehand, nor will it be right to
regard the decision simply in the light
of partisans, rather than as those who
love and respect the law, and adhere
to justice as just forall times. For
mere
,partisan decisions aro liable to
bo turned against those who have ren
dered them. Nothing is more frequent
than for such instruments to be the
guillotines of their builders.
