"DRE3SING FOR CHURCH."
Iles any body heard the bell?
You have? dear me, I know fall well .
I'll never dress in time.
For mercy's sake, come help me, Jane :
I'll make my toilet quite plain,
(This for the sake of rhyme).
Here, lace this gaiter for me—do;.
"A hole," you say? plague take the shoe!
Please, Janey, try and hide it.
I knew it's Sunday—but, my soul,
I cannot wear it with a hole!
the men will spy it.
They're always peeping at our feet
(Thu to be sure they needn't peep
The way we hold our dresses).
I'll disappoint them tho' to-day,
"And cross myself," pray did you say ?
Don't laugh at my distress.
Ilow beautifully this silk will rustle !
(Please hand lay self-adjusting bustle, c7
My corset and my hoop).
There now, I'll take five skirts, or six ;
110 Inirry, Jane, and help me fix—
You know I cannot stoop !
"How shall say my prayers to-day?"
As if girls went to church to pray!
How can you be so foolish?
Here, damp this ribbon in cologne;
" What for?" to paint, you silly one—
Now, Janey, don't be mulish!
it's no more harm than 4 4 Lilly White "
(Please see if this cheek's painted right,
And hand my box of chalk).
Now damp the towel. Janey, dear,
And wipe this eyebrow—much 1 fear
I shall be late to walk.
Now my bonnet, if you please—
That's as big as all out doors,
The awful sugar scoop !
Then, my mantle's handsome, tho'
It cost enough to be, I know.
(Straighten this horrid hoop!)
My handkerchief and gloves you'll find
Just in that drawer—you're very kind.
(Does toy dress trail?)
It's all the fashion now, you know.
(Pray does the paint and powder show
Thro' this lace veil ?)
Thank you, my dear! I believe I'm dressed
The saints be praised ! the day of rest
Comes only .nets in seven;
For if on all the other six
This-trouble I should have to fix,
I'd never get to Heaven.
OUR DEAD.
Nothing is our own ; we hold our pleasures
Just a little while ers they are fled;
One by one life robs us of our treasures;
Nothing is our own except our dead.
They are ours, and hold in faithful keeping
Safe forever, all they took away;
Cruel life can never stir that sleeping,
Cruel time can never seize that prey.
Justice pales; truth fades; stars fall from Heaven;
Human are the great whom we revere ;
No true crown of honor can be given,
Till the wreath lies on a funeral bier.
How thochildren leave us; and no traces
Lin& of that smiling angel band ; '
Gone, forever gone; and in their places
Weary men and anxious women stand.
Yet we have some little ones, still ours;
They have kept the baby smile we knew
Which we kissed one day and hid with flowers,
On their dead, white faces, long ago.
When our joy is lost—and life will take it—
Then to memory of the past remains;
Save with some strange , cruel sting that makes it—
Bitterness beyond i present pains.
Death, more tender,hearted, leaves to sorrow
Still the radiant shadow—long regret;
We shall find in some far bright to-morrow
Joy that he has taken, living yet.
Is love ours and do we dream we know it,
Bound with all our heart-strings, all our own?
Any cold and cruel dawn may show it,
bhattered, desecrated, overthrown.
Only the dead hearts forsake us never;
Love, that to death's loyal care has fled,
Is thus consecrated ours forever,
And no change can rob us of our dead.
So, when fato oomes to besiege our city,
Dim our gold or make our flowers fall,
Death, the angel, comes in love and pity,
To save our treasures, claims them all.
THE PRESIDENT'S PROTEST.
We publish to-day in full the Presi
dent's protest to the illegal constitution
and proceedingl of the late Covode Com
mittee. It is a masterly document, written
in a concise, logical style. Its deductions
entirely abrogate the legality of the Com
mittee, and put a quietus on the proceed
ings of one of the most iniquitous and de
graded special inquisitions ever authorized
in the National Legislature :
To the 'Luse of Representatives :
In my message to the House of Repre
sentatives of the 28th March last, I
solemnly protested against the creation of
a committee, at the head of which was
placed my accuser, for the purpose of in
vestigating whether the President had,
Eby money, patronage, or other improper
means, sought to influence the action of
Congress, or any committee thereof, for or
against the passage of any law appertain
ing to the rights of any State or Territory.'
I protested against this because it was
destitute of any specification, because it
- referred to no particular act to enable the
President to prepare for his defence, be
cause it deprived him of the constitutional
guards which, in common with every citi
zen of the United States, he possesses for
his protection, and because it assailed his
constitutional independence as a co-ordi
nate branch of the government.
There is an enlightened justice as well
as a beautiful symmetry in every part of
the • constitution. This is conspicuously
manifested in regard to impeachments.—
The House of Representatives possesses
the sole power of impeachment ; ' the
Senate the sole power to try all impeach
ments,' and the impeachable offences are
treason, bribery, or other high crimes or
misdemeanors.' The practice of the House
from the earliest times had been in accord
ance with its own dignity, the rights of
the accused, and the demands of justice.
At the commencement of each judicial in
vestigation which might lead to an im
peachment, specific charges were always
preferred, the accused had an opportunity
of cross-examining the witnesses, and he
was placed in full possession of the precise
nature of the offence which he had to meet.
An impartial and elevated standing com
mittee was charged with this Investigation,
upon which no member inspired with the
ancient sense of honor and justice would
have served had he ever expressed an
opinion against the accused. Until the
present occasion it was never deemed
proper to transform the accuser into the
judge, and to confer upon him the selec
tion of his own committee.
The charges made against me, in vague
and general terms, were of such a false
and atrocious character that I did not en
tertain a moment's apprehension for the
result. They were abhorrent to every
prinoiple instilled into me from my youth,
every practice of my life ; and I did not
_believe it possible ' that the man existed
Who would so liasely perjure himself as to
swear to the truth of any such accusations.
In this conviction, 1 am informed, I have
not been mistaken.
In my former protest, therefore, I truly
and emphatically declared that it was made
for no reason personal to myself; but be
cause the proceedings of the House were
in violation of the rights of the co-ordinate
executive branch of the Government, sub
versive of its constitutional independence,
and, if unresisted, would establish a pre
cedent dangerous and embarrassing to all
my successors. Notwithstanding• all this,
if the committee had not transcended the
authority conferred upon it by the resolu
tion of the House of Representatives,
broad and general as this was, I should
have remained silent upon the subject.—
What I now charge is, that they acted as
though they possess unlimited power, and,
without any warrant whatever in the reso
lution under which they were appointed,
have pursued a course not merely at war'
with the constitutional rights of the Ex
ecutive, but tending to degrade the Presi
dential office itself to such a degree as to
render it unworthy of the acceptance of
any man of honor or principle.
The resolution of the House, so far as
it is accusatory of the President, is con
fined to an inquiry whether he had used
corrupt or improper means to influence the
action of Congress, or any of its committees,
on legislative measures pending before
them. Nothing more, nothing less. I
have not learned through the newspapers,
or in any other mode, that the committee
have touched the other accusatory branch
of the resolution, charging the President
with a violation-of duty in failing to exe
cute some law or laws. This branch of the
resolution is, therefore, out of the ques
tion. By what authority, then, have the
committee undertaken to investigate the
course of the President in regard to the
convention which framed the Lecompton
constitution 1 By what authority have
they undertaken to pry into our foreign
relations for the purpose of assailing him
on account of the instructions given-by the
Secretary of State to our Minister in Mex
ico relative to the Tehuantepec route ?
By what authority have they inquired into
the causes of removal from office, and this
from the parties themselves removed, with
a view to prejudice his character, notwith
standing this power of removal belongs
exclusively to the President under the
constitution, was so decided by the first
Congress in the year 1789, and has accord
ingly ever since been exercised. There is
in the resolution no pretext of authority
for the committee to investigate the ques
tion of printing the Post Office blanks ;
nor is it to be supposed that the House, if
asked, would have granted such an au
thority, because this question had been
previously committed to two other com
mittees, one in the Senate and the other
in the House. Notwithstanding this ab
solute want of power, the committee rushed
into this investigation in advance of all
other subjects.
The committee proceeded for months ;
from 22d March, 1860, to examine exparte,
and without any notice to myself, intc
every subject which could possibly affect
my character. Interested and vindigtive
witnesses were summoned and examined
before them ; and the first and only infor
mation of their testimony which, in almost
every instance, I received, was obtained
from the publication of such portions of it
as could injuriously affect myself in the
New York journals. It mattered not that
these statements were, so far as I hive
learned, disproved by the most respectaole
witnesses who happened to be on the slot.
The telegraph was silent respecting these
contradictions. It was a secret committee
in regard to the testimony in my defence ;
but it was public in regard to all testimony
which could by possibility reflect on my
character. The poison was left to proeuce
its effect upon the public mind, whilst the
antidote was carefully withheld.
In their examinations the committee
violated the most sacred and honorable
confidences existing among men. Private
correspondence, which a truly honorable
man would never even entertain a distant
thought of divulging, was dragged to light.
Different persons in official and confiden
tial relations with myself, and with whom
it was. supposed I might have held con
versations, the revelation of which would
do me injury, were examined. Even
members of the Senate and members of
my own Cabinet, both my constitutional
advisers, were called upon to testify, for
the purpose of discovering something, if
possible, to my discredit.
The distribution of the pate onage of the
government is by far the most disagreeable
duty of the President. Applicants are so
numerous, and their applications are
pressed with such eagerness by their
friends, both in and out of Congress, that
the selection of one for any desirable office
gives offence to many. Disappointed ap
plicants, removed officers, and those who,
for any cause, real or imaginary, had
become hostile to the administration, pre
sented themselves, or were invited by a
summons to appear before the committee.
These are the most dangerous witnesses.
Even with the best intentions they are so
influenced by prejudice and disappointment
that they almost inevitably discolor truth.
They swear to their own version of private
conversations with the President : without
tie possibility of contradiction. His lips
are sealed, and he is left at their mercy.
He cannot, as a co-ordinate branch of the
government, appear before a committee of
investigation to contradict the oaths of
such witnesses. Every coward knows that
he can employ insulting language against
the President with impunity, and every
false or prejudiced witness can attempt to
swear away his character, before such a
committee, without the fear of contradic
tion.
Thus, for months, while doing my best,
at one end of the avenue, to perform my
high and responsible duties to the country,
has there been a committee of the House
of Representatives in session at the other
end of the avenue, spreading. a drag-net,
without the shadow of authority from the
House, over the whole Union, to catch
any disappointed man willing to malign
my character—and all this in secret con
clave. The Lion's mouth at Venice, into
which secret denunciations were dropped,
is an apt illustration of the Colode Com
mittee. The Star Chamber, tyrainical and
odious as it was, never proceeded in such a
manner. For centuries there ha s been
nothing like it in any civilized country,
except the revolutionary tribunalof France,
in the days of Robespierre.
Now, I undertake tp._state .and prove,
that should the proceedings of he Gout-.

LANCASTER Cfl: Y, PA., TUESDAY MORNING, JULY 10, 1860.
mittee be sanctioned by the House, and
become a precedent for 'future times, the
balance of the Constitution will be entire
ly upset, and there will no longer remain
the three co-ordinate and independent
branches of the government—legislative,
executive and judicial. The worst fears
of the patriots and statesmen who
,framed
the Constitution, in regard to the usurpa
tions of the legislative on the executive
and judicial branches, will then be realized.
In the language of Mr. Madison, speaking
on this very subject, in the 38th number
of the Federalist: In a representative
republic, where the exeutive magistracy is
carefully limited both in the extent and
duration of its power ; and where the
legislative power is exercised by an assem
bly which is inspired by a supposed influ
ence over the people, with an intrepid
confidence in its own strength, which is
sufficiently numerous to feel ail the passions
which actuate a multitude, yet not so
numerous as to be incapable of pursuing
the objects of its passions by means which
reason prescribes, it is against the enter
prising ambition of this department that
the people ought to indulge all their jeal
ousy and exhaust all their precautions.'
And in the expressive and pointed language
of Mr. Jefferson, when speaking of the
tendency of the legislative branch of
government to usurp the rights of the
weaker branches The concentrating
these in the same hands is precisely the
definition of despotic government. It will
be no alleviation that these powers will be
exercised by a plurality of hands, and not
by a single one. One hundred and seventy
three despots will surely be as oppressive
as one. Let those who doubt it turn their
eyes on the republic of Venice. As little
will it avail us that they are chosen by
ourselves. An elective despotism was not
the government we fought for, but one
which should not only be founded on free
principles, but in which the powers of
government should be so divided and
balanced among several bodies of magis_
tracy as that no one could transcend their
legal limits without being effectually
checked and controlled by the others.'
Should the proceedings of the Covode
Committee become a precedent, both the
letter and spirit of the Constituion will be
violated. One of the three massive col
umns on which the whole superstructure
rests will be broken down. Instead of
the executive being a co-ordinate, it will
become a subordinate branch of the gov
ernment. The Presidential office will be
dragged into the dust. The House of
Representatives will then have Tendered
the executive almost necessarily subservi
ent to its wishes instead of being indepen
dent. How is it possible that two powers
in the State can be co-ordinate and inde
pendent of each other, if the one claims
and exercises the power to reprove and to
censure all the official acts and all the
private conversations of the other—and
this upon exparte testimony before a secret
inquisitorial committee •, in short, to as
sume a general censorship over the other
The idea is as absurd in public as it would
be in private life. Should the President
attempt to assert and maintain his own
independence, future Covode committees
may dragoon him into submission by col
lecting the host of disappointed office
hunters, removed officers, and those who
desire to live upon the public treasury,
which must follow in the wake of every
administration, and they in secret conclave
will swear away his reputation.
Under such circumstances he must be a
very bold man should he not surrender at
discretion, and consent to exercise his
authority according to the will of those
invested with this terrific power. The
sovereign people of the several States have
elected him to the highest and most honor
able office in the world. He is their only
direct representative in the Government.
By their Constitution they have made him
Commander-in-Chief of their army and
navy. He represents them in their inter
course with foreign nations. Clothed with
their dignity and authority, he occupies
a proud position before all nations, civil
ized and savage. With the consent of the
Senate he appoints all the- important
officers of the Government.. He exercises
the veto power, and to that extent controls
the .legislation of Congress. For the
performance of these high duties he is
responsible to the people of the several
States, and not in any degree to the House
of Representatives.
Shall he surrender these high powers,
conferred upon him as the representative
of the American people for their benefit,
to the House, to be exercised under their
overshadowing influence and control ?
Shall he alone, of all the citizens of the
United States, be denied a fair trial?—
Shall he alone not be informed of the
nature and cause of the accusation
against him I Shall he alone not be con
fronted with the witnesses ' against him ?
Shall the House of Representatives,
usurping the powers of the Senate, pro
ceed to try the President, through the
agency of a secret committee of the body,
where it is impossible he can make any
defence, and then, without affording him
an opportunity of being heard, pronounce
a judgment of censure against him? The
very same rule might be applied, for the
very sam?, reason, to every judge of every
court of the United States. From what
part of the Constitution is this terrible
secret inquisitorial power derived? No
such express power exists. From which
of the enumerated powers can it be infer
red ? It is true the House cannot pro
nounce the formal judgment against him
of removal from office ;" but they can,
by their judgment of censure, asperse his
reputation, and thus, to the extent of their
influence, render the office contemptible.
An example is at hand of the reckless
manner in which this power of censure
can be employed in high party times. The
House, on a recent occasion, have attempt
ed to degrade the President by adopting
the, resolution of Mr. John Sherman, de
claring that he, in conjunction with the
Secretary of the Navy, by receiving and
considering the party relations of bidders
for contracts, and the effect of awarding
contracts upon pending elections, has set
an example dangerous to the public safety,
and deserving the reproof of this House.'
It will scarcely be credited that the sole
pretext for this vote of `censure was the
simple fact that in disposing of the numer
ous letters of every imaginable character
which I daily receive, I had, in the usual
course of business, referred a letter from
Col. Patterson, of Philadelphia, in rela
tion to a contract, to the. attention of the
Seoretazy of the Navy, the head of the
appropriate departatent,." .without. express-
ing or intimating any opinion. whatever on,
the subject.; and to make the matter, if
possible, still plainer, the Secretary had
informed the committee that the Presi
dent did not in any manner interfere in
this case ; nor has he in any other case
of contract since I have been in the de
partment.' The absence of all proof to
sustain this attempt to degrade the Presi
dent, whilst 'it manifests the venom of the
shaft aimed at him, has destroyed the
vigor of the bow.
To return after this digression. Should
the House, by the institution of Covode
committees, votes of censure, and other
devices to barrage the. President, reduce
him to subservience to their will, and
render him their creature, when, the well
balanced government which our fathers
framed will be annihilated. This conflict
has already been commenced in earnest by
the House against the Executive. A bad
precedent rarely if ever dies. It will, I
fear, be pursued in the time of my suc
cessors, no matter . what may be their
political character. Should secret com
mittees be appointed with an unlimited
authority to range over all the words and
actions, and if possible the very thoughts
of the President, with a view to discover
something in his past life prejudicial to his
character, from parasites and informers,
this would be an ordeal whiclt scarcely any
mere man since the fall could endure. It
would 'he to subject him to a region of
terror from which the stoutest and purest
heart might shrink. I have passed tri
umphantly through this ordeal, My vin
dication is complete. The committee have
reported no resolution looking to an
impeachment against me ; no resolution
of censure ; not even a resolution pointing
out any abuses in any of the executive
departments of the , government to be
corrected by legislation. This is the
highest commendation which could be
bestowed on the heads of these apart
ments. The sovereign people of the
States, will, however, I trust, save my
successors, whoever they may be, from
any such ordeal. They are frank, bold
and honest. They detest delators and
informers. I therefore, in the name and
as the representative of this great people,
and standing upon the ramparts of the
Constitution which they have ordained
and established,' do solemnly protest
against these unprecedented and uncon
stitutional proceedings.
There was still another committee raised
by the House on the 6th of March last, on
motion of Mr. Hoard, to which J. had not
the slightest objection. The resolution
creating it was confined to specific charges
which I have ever since been ready and
willing to meet. I have at all times
invited and defied fair investigation upon
constitutional principles. I have received
no notice that this committee have ever
proceeded to the investigation.
Why should the House of Representa
tives desire to encroach on the other
departments of the government? Their
rightful powers are ample for every
legitimate purpose. They are the impeach
ing body. In their legislative capactity
it their most wise and wholesome pre
rogative to institute rigid examinations
into the manner in which all departments
of the government are conducted, with a
view to reform abuses, to promote econo
my and to improve every branch of ad
ministration. Should . they find reason to
believe, in the course of their examinations
that any grave offence had been commit
ted by the President or any officer of the
government rendering it proper, in their
judgment, to resort to impeachment, their
course would be plain. They would then
transfer the question from their legislative
to their accusatory jurisdiction, and take
care that, in all the preliminary judicial
proceedings preparatory to the vote of
articles of impeachment, the accused
should enjoy the benefit of eross-examin
ing the witnesses, and all the other safe
guards with which the Constitution sur
rounds every American Citizen.
If in a legislative investigation it should
appear that the public interest required
the removal of any officer of the govern
ment, no President has ever exisfed ' who
after giving him a fair hearing, would
hesitate to apply the remedy.
This I take to be the ancient and well
established practice. An adherence tp it
will best promote the harmony and the
dignity of the intercourse between the
co-ordinate branches `of the government,
and render us all more respectable both
in the eyes of our own countrymen and of
foreign nations.
JAMES BUCHANAN
WASHINGTON, June 22, 1860.
The Land beyond the Mountains.
The child was dying. His weary limbs
were racked by pain no more. The flush
was fading from his thin cheeks, and the
fever that had been for weeks drying up
his blood, was now cooling rapidly under
the icy hand that was upon him.
There were sounds and tokens of bitter
but suppressed grief in that dim chamber,
for the dying boy was one very dear to
many hearts.
They knew that he was departing, and
the thought was hard to bear; but they
tried to command their feelings that they
might not disturb the last moments of
their darling.
The father and mother, and the kind
physician stood beside dear Eddy's bed,
and watched his heavy breathing. He
had been silent for some time, and ap
peared to sleep. They thought it might
be thus he would pass away ; but sudden
ly his clear blue eyes opened wide, and a
beautiful smile broke over his features.—
He looked upward and forward first, and
then
_turning his eyes upon his mother's
face, said in a sweet voice : Mother,
what is the name of the beautiful country
that I see beyond the mountains—the
high mountains !'
I can see nothing my child ;' said the
mother ; there are no mountains in sight
of our house.'
Look there, dear mother,' said the
child, pointing upwards, yonder are the
mountains. Can you see them now V he
asked in tones of the greatest astonish
ment, as his mother shook her head.
g They are near me now—so large and
high, and behind them the country looks
so beautiful, and the people are so happy
—there are no sick children there. Papa,
can you not see beyond the mountains ?
Tell me the name of that land.'
The parents glanced at each other and
with united voice replied, g The land you
see is heaven, is it not, my child?'
6 Yes, it is heaven. I thought that must
be its name. 0, let me go—but how shall
I cross these mountains 0, take me in
your arms and carry me, for they call me
from the other side, and I must go.'
There was not a ry eye in that chamber,
and upon every heart there fell a solemn
awe, as if the curtain which concealed its
mysteries was about to be withdrawn.
My son,' said the father, g will you.
stay with us a little longer ? Yon shall
arose the mountain soon, but in stronger
arms than mine. Wait—stay with your
mother a little longer.; see how she weeps
at the thought of losing you.'
0, mother-0, father, do not cry, but
come with me and cross the mountains-0
come'!' and thus he entreated with a
strength and earnestness which astonished
all.
The chamber was filled with wondering
and awe stricken friends. At length he
turned to his mother, with a face beaming
with rapturous delight, and stretching out
his little arms for a last embrace, he cried,
Good bye, mother, I am going ; but don't
you be afraid--the strong man has come
to carry me over the mountains.'
These were his parting words, upon his
mother's breast he breathed his last, and
they laid the fair little baby down again
upon the pillows, and closed the lids over
the beautiful blue eyes, over which the
mist of death had gathered heavily, and
bowing, by the bedside they prayed with
submissive but bleeding hearts, and said ;
The Lord gave, and the ord taketh
away ; blessed be the name of the Lord.'
