The fisherman wades in the surges ;
The sailor sails over the seas;
The soldier steps bravely to battle:
Tho woodman lays axe to the trees
They are each of the breed of the heroes,
The manhood attempted in strife;
Strong hands that go lightly to labor,
True hearts that take comfort in strife.
In each is the seed to replenish
The world with the rigor it neede—
The centre of honest affectione,
The impulse to generous deeds.
But the shark drinks the blood of the fisher;
The sailor is dropped in the sea;
The soldier lies cold by his cannon ;
The woodman is crushed by his tree.
Each prodigal life that is wasted
In many achievements unseen,
But lengthens the days of the coward
And strengthens the crafty and mean
The blood of the noble is lavished
That the selfish a profit may find;
God sees the lives that aro squandered
And wo to His wisdom are blind.
FROM WASHINGTON,
THE IMPEACHMENT.
What Chief Justice Chase Said.
WASHINGTON, May 11, 1868.
The doors wore closed at 10.20
o'clock.
The doors having been closed, the
Ohiof Justice stated that in compliance
with the desire of the Senate he had
prepared the questions to be address
ed to Senators upon the articles of im
peachment, and that ho had reduced
his views to writing, which ho read :
The Chief Justice aroseand address
ed the Senators as follows :
Senators, in conformity with what
seemed the general wish of the Senate
when it adjourned on last Thursday,
the Chief Justice, in taking the vote on
the articles of impeachment, will adopt
the mode c,anetioned by the practice
of the cases of Chase, Peck, and Lunt
phreys. Ho will direct the Secretary
to read the several articles successive
ly, and after the rending of each ar
ticle will put the question of guilty or
not guilty to each Senator, rising
in his place - ---tho form used in the
trial of Judge Chase: "Mr. Sen
ator —, how say you, is the respon
dent, Andrew Johnson, President 'of
the United States, guilty or not guilty
of a high misdemeanor, as charged in
this article ?"
PIULADELNUA, PA
In putting the questions on articles
fourth and sixth, each of which charg
es a crime, the word "crime" will be
substituted for the word "misdemea
nor." The Chief Justice has carefully
considered the suggestion of the Sena
tor from Indiana [Mr. Hendricks],
which appeared to meet the approval
of the Senate, that in taking the vote
on the eleventh article the question
should - be put on each clause, and has
found himself unable to divide the ar
ticle as suggested. The articles charge
several facts, but they are so connec
ted that they make but one allegation,
and this charges as constituting one
misdemeanor the first act charged, for
instance, that the President publicly
declared in August 1808, that the 39th
Congress was a Congress of only parts
of the States, and not a constitutional
Congress, intending thereby to deny
its constitutionality to enact laws or
propose amendments to the Constitu
tion, and this charge seems to have
been made as introductory, and as
qualifying that which follows, namely:
That the President, in pursuance of
this declaration, attempted to prevent
the execution of the tenure of office
act by contriving and attempting to
contrive moans to prevent Mr. Stan
ton from resuming the functions of
Secretary of War, after the refusal of
the Sonato to concur in his suspension ;
and also by contriving and attempting
to contrive moans to prevent the exe
cution of the appropriation apt of
March 2, 1867; and also to prevent the
execution of the rebel States govern
ments act of the same date.
The gravamen of the article seems
to be that the President attempted to
defeat the execution of the tenure of
°Mee act, and that ho did this in pur
suance of a declaration which was in
tended to deny the constitutional com
petency of Congress to enact laws or
propose constitutional amendments,
and by contriving means to prevent
Mr. Stanton from resuming his office
of Secretary, and also to prevent the
execution of the reconstruction act in
the rebel States. The single Substan
tivo matter charged is the attempt to
prevent the execution of the tenure. of
office act and the other facts alleged,
as introductory, and exhibiting his
general purpose, or as showing the
means contrived in furtherance el that
attempt. This single matter, connected
with the other matters previously and
subsequently alleged, is charged as the
high misdemeanor of which the Prosi
dent is alleged to have been guilty.
The general, question of guilty or
not guilty of high misdemeanor, as
charged, seems fully concurred in as
charged, and will he put to this article
as well as to the others, until the Sen
ate direct some mode of division. In
the tenth article. the division suggest
ed by the Senator from New York
[Mr. Conkling], may be more easily
made. It contains a general allega
tion to the effect that on the 16th of
August, and on other days, the Presi
dent, with intent to set aside the right
ful authority of Congress and bring it
into contempt, uttered certain scanda
lous harangues and threats and bit
ter matinee against Congress, and the
laws of the United States enacted by
Congress, thereby bringing the aloe
of President into dis t graue i to the great
-PERSEVERE.-

scandal of all good citizens, and sets
forth in three distinct specifications
the harangues, threats, and menaces
complained of in this respect to the
several specifications; and then the
question of guilty or not guilty of high
misdemeanors as charged in the arti
cle can also be taken. The Chief Jus
tice, however, sees no objection in put
ting general questions on this article,
in the same manner as the others; for
whether particular questions be put
on the specifications or not, the an
swer to the final question must be de
termined by the judgment of the Sen
ate whether or not the acts alleged in
the specifications have been sufficient
ly proved, and whether, if sufficiently
proved, they amount to a high mis
demeanor within the meaning of the
Constitution.
On the whole, therefore, the Chief
Justice thinks that,the better practice
will be to put the general question on
each article, without attempting to
make any sub-division, and will pur
sue this course if no objection is made.
He will, however, be pleased to con
form to such directions as the Senate
may see fit in the matter.
Mr. Sumner, after this statement,
moved on order that the question
should bo put by the Chief Justico as
proposed, and that each Senator should
rise in his placo and without debate or
explanation, answer to each article
"guilty," or "not guilty," which order
was adopted. The articles of impeach
ment were then, about eleven o'clock,
taken up for consideration, and an op
portunity given for an expression of
opinion.
Mr. Sherman was the first speaker.
Ho had,his views but partly written
out, and did not confine himself to
manuscript. He said he could not vote
for the first article, that charging high
crime in the remoual of Mr. Stanton,
for the same reason, as he had exprdss
ed while the act was under discussion,
that he did not believe Mr. Stanton's
case covered .by its provisions. He
hold that under the act of 1789 the
President had authority to make the
removal, and that it had not in this
particular case been taken from him
by the tenure•of office act. Ile an
nounced, however, that in his judg
ment the President had grossly and
willfully violated the law, and far
transcended his powers in appointing
General Thomas as Secretary ad inter
im, and had thereby rendered himself
liable to impeactimentr by the House,
and punishment by the Senate. He
spoke briefly on the other articles, and
on the whole indicated that while lie
should certainly vote against the first
article, ho would vote for the second
and third, and perhaps others.
Mr. Stewart vas the second speak
er, and look strong ground in favor of
conviction on all the principal articles.
Mr. Grimes was the third speaker.
He has been reported for acquittal for
some days,
and the truth of this report
had been learned by everybody who
took proper means of inquiry. There
was great interest, however, in hearing
what he would say, and when ho had
occupied the allotted fifteen minutes,
there was a general request that he
should read his whole opinion. Mr.
Grimes began with the consideration
of the President's power of removal of
the heads of departments under the
Constitution; quoting many authori
ties to show that his power was not
denied or abridged by the passage of
the tenure-of-office act. He then pass
' cd over the question of the eonstitu
tional validity of that act, and took up
the discussion of whether Mr. Stan
ton's ease came within its provisions.
He did not consider the Secretary of
War either within the first section of
the act, or the proviso, and quoted the
declarations of Mr. Schenck and Mr.
Sherman in the debate on the passage
of bill in March, 1867, to sustain the
theory. He thought Mr. Stanton held
office under the pleasure of the Presi
dent alone, under the act of 1739, and
that the President could remove him.
He did not think there was any dis
tinction between the power of the
President to remove in the recess and
his power to remove during the ses
sion of the Senate, an officer who
hold solely by his pleasure.
Taking up then the second article,
he said the temporary designation of a
person to discharge the duties of an
office until the office could be filled was
made legal by the act of 1795, which
ho is satisfied has not been 'repealed by
that of 1863. But even if he thought
otherwise, Mr. Grimes said ho should
be unable to convict the President of a
crime in such a temporary appoint
ment, not doubting that the President
acted in good faith, and believed he
was' acting within the laws. Ho dis
missed the conspiracy articles very,
briefly, as he did the eighth and ninth
articles. He then took up the ques
tion of intent, saying he had no doubt
that the President thoroughly believed
the tenure-of-ofhee act unconstitutional
and void, and that he was advised of
its unconstitutionality by Mr. Stanton
and other members of his Cabinet, and
Mr. Grimes thought it not strange that
under the circumstances the President
should doubt or question its scope. He
hold, however, that the Stanton case
was not included in the provisions .of
'this net, and that therefore the ques
tions of intent need not be considered,
as the President had done no lawful
act. But even if ho were included, the
guilty intent was not such as warrant
ed the judgment demanded by the
house.
The Senator went on to say that if
the President might not in this way
make a case for the courts to pass up
on, the - completo supremacy of Con
gress over all other branches of "the
government was established, and ho
was no believer.in such doctrine.

"1 express no views upon any of the
questions upon which the Presidenthas
been arraigned at the bar of public
opinion •outside of the charges. I
have no right to travel out of the rec
ord. Mr. Johnson's character as a
statesman, his relations to political
parties, his conduct as a citizen, his ef
forts at reconstruction, the exercise of
his pardoning powers, the character of
his appointments, and the influences
under which they were made, are not
before us on any charge; nor can I suf
fer my judgment of law governing this
ease to be influenced by political con•
siderations. I cannot agree to detitroy
the harmonious working of the Consti
tution for the sake of geting rid of an
unacceptable President. Whatever my
opinion of the incumbent, I cannot con
sent to trifle with the high office ho
holds. I differ widely with the Presi,
dent respecting his political viows and
measures, and I deeply regret the dif
ference between him and Congress, but
I cannot in my judicial capacity re
cord my vote that ho is guilty of high
crimes and misdemeanors."
Senator Edmunds was the next
speaker. He drew up the tenure-of
office act, hhd entire charge of it before
the Senate, and was thoroughly con
versant with its intent and meaning.
There was consequently great curiosity
to hoar his opinion on the case now
prosecuted. He spoke nearly an hour,
reading entirely from manuscript very
carefully prepared. Ho said at once
that the charges specified in the first,
second and third articles were clearly
proved, and the only question to con
sider was whether they constituted
high crimes and misdemeanors. He
found that the President's ditties were
all defined in the Constitution, and the
chief of these is, he shall see that the
laws aro faithfully executed and shall
execute them by such means and such
means only as are provided in the laws
themselves. The President could not
rightfully violatelaw in order to en
force it, and could only use the power
of appointment in the manner fixed by
the legislative department of the gov
ernment, and could .not accomplish le
gal purposes by illegal means. From
these premises Mr. Edmunds argued
that the President's course in remov
ing Stanton and appointing Thomas
was not only illegal, but so grossly il
legal as to constitute a high crime. He
could not support any of the conspira
cy articles, but should vote for the first
three.
Mr. Williams was the fiifh speaker.
Ho reached about the samo conclusion
as Mr. Edmunds had. lie would vote
for the first, second and eighth arti
cles, and left the impression on the
minds of his associates that he might
also vote for some others.
Mr. Rowe followed, with a brief
statement of his conclusions, which it
was found did not materially differ
from those of Mr. Sherman. He would
not votefor the first article, but would
support the second and third and 'part
of the eleventh artiele,if it were divided,
Mr. Hendricks was the first speaker
on the Democratic side of the chamber,
He spoke from notes, but had no writ
ten opinion. Ho of course took ground
against the whole thing. Such of the
allegations . of the House as rested on
documentary evidence ho admitted
were proved, but if everything charged
were admitted, he held that there was
no guilty intent, and therefore no case,
Ho would vote against every article,
and charged that impeachment, if car
ried at all, would be carried as a parti
san measure, and not as a measure of
justice.
Mr. Pomeroy and Mr. Morrill, of
Maine, followed, and indicated that
they would vote for all the principal
articles, but against that about tho
President's speeches and that resting
on the evidence of G.eneral Emory.
At this point a recess of fifteen min
utes took place ' and during the time
thero was much comparing of notes
among impeachment mon inside and
outside the 9enato. It was generally
admitted that the case against the
President began to look doubtful, but
all said that it was not yet Limo to give
it up, though Wade and Wilson said
there did not appear to be much chance
of conviction. There was talk about
postponing the vote from to-morrow
till some time next month, but the
proposition did not seem to be consid
ered with general favor.
Mr. Doolittle was the first Speaker
after recess. Ho followed Mr. Ilencl
rick's views, and made a forcible and
eloquent speeeh against the body of
the articles.
Mr. Davis took an extreme Demo
cratic position in relation to the.mat
ter, and of course will vote not guilty
every time his name is called, whether
it be to-morrow or at some future day.
Mr. Henderson came to the floor
next, and his statement-was of such a
character as to bring 'upon him the
wrath of every impeachment man
about the Capitol. It had been, as
sumed entirely without warrant, it
appears, that ho would veto with his
colleague for all the principal articles
and his name was so marked down by
all who had not taken pains to inform
themselves as to his position. He road
a carefully prepared opinion of no
groat length, takinu• b ground that tho
tenure-of-office act did not apply to
Stanton's case, us ho had not been
appointed by Mr. Johnson, • and had
only hold office by the President's as
sent since the close of Lincoln's term.
He did not think it necessary to dis
cuss the question of intent, because no
law had 'been violated. He said he
had no sympathy with the President's
political course, but could not decide
the question now in issue on party
grounds. lie indicated that ho would
veto against the principal articles, but
as ha said nothing particularly about
the 11th, his Missouri friends try to
flatter themselves that he will at least
vote for it.

Mr.-Dixon .and Mr. Johnson then
spoke in the order named, both, deelan
ing that there was no case against the
President.' The.latter had a very long
and elaborate paper, going over all
the points in issue, but only part- of
it was read to-day. It will all be
printed in the report of the trial.
Mr. Trumbull next stated his
.opin.
ion. He had been counted by the out
siders as sure to vote for two or three
articles; but this count it also appears
was not well founded;'for the Senator
made a strong speech against the first
and second articles, 'which are the ba,
sis of the whole case. He said the net
of 1789 creating the War Department,

its, head, and this - power was in nq

Mr. Fessenden was the last speaker
of the afternoon session, and spoke„ at
more length than any,_ other Senatir,
treating the whole question presented
by the House with mach fullness, and
declaring against every ' article.
Al this time, viz : about half past five,
