THE CABE OF MR. STAN FON.
Events are rapidly shaping themselves into
very clear indications that Mr. Johnson is
seriously meditating a treasonable plot to re
sist the laws by every means which he can,
control. The programme for the removal of
Mr. Stanton from the War office has been
openly avowed. Mr. Johnson announces his
purpose to appoint a successor to the present
Secretary of War, without - regard to the
plain provisions of the Civil Tenure of Office
bill, sending his nomination to the Senate
without any reason for his action and pre
fering no charges against Secretary Stanton.
This is a long step forward. On the former
occasions when the President has sought to
evade the laws and counteract the public will,
he has proceeded under a specious coloring of
law, not avowedly repudiating it, but giving
it such a distorted interpretation, as would
keep him., within the shelter of the theory
that he might possibly differ honestly with
the rest of the nation as to the proper mean
ing of the laws which he desired to violate.
But in this new scheme he abandons subter
fuges and boldly moves out into the open,
and acknowledges that what he proposes to
do is against the law. He boldly declares his
revolutionary purpose to set the laws aside,
when they conflict with his judgment or in
terfere with his autocratic will. This is the
sum and substance of Mr. Johnson's last pro
4,,ramme. He claims the right to sit in
judgment upon the acts of congress, -not only
in the exercise of his constitutional veto
power, but even after those acts have passed
into laws. This is practical rebellion, and
Congress must so treat it.
Mr." Johnson can be little short of a mad
man if he supposes that the American people
will tolerate such usurpations of power in
any officer of the Government., The Supreme
Court enacting laws, or Congress appointing
postmasters, would. be no farther removed
from the sphere of-constitutional duty than is
President, in bis determination to choose
ich laws he will obey and which he will
disregard.
The late elections, in which the
.masses of
the people voted without the slightest thought
of him or his policy, have evidently stimu
lated him - to take this arbitrary step. He
has blundered, as he usually does, in dis
covering his plot to the country too soon. It
will afford members of Congress an opportu
nity to confer with ttreir loyal con
stituents before they e 6 to Wash
ington next month, and they will
assemble, prepared to meet and thwart the
desperate purposes .of the President. Mr.
Johnson's arrogance, in thus repudiating a
plainly expressed law, must be checked,
rebuked and humbled. If there is a thing
- which the American people instinetk-ely
rebel against, it is a wanton assumption of
eadelegated power on the part of their public ,
servants. Mr. Johnson, in his mad desire to
strike down the one faithful friend of Ahra
ham Lincoln who remains in his Adminis
tration, does not hesitate to trample over the
laws which lie between him and his victim.
Congress is bound to restrain this madness,
and to vindicate the law which the President
despises. The constitutionality of the law
has nothing whatever to do with the
eeestion. Mr. Johnson vetoel ,the bill,
Ls he had a right to do, and there his potier
'And his responsibility ended. All , that re-
Mena for him to do is to obey; •
net eieetzte
the law. Ii hlemses to frthil this plain
obligation, Congress must either bring him
to his senses, or put him out of the way.
When it was urged . upon the pecee that the
:Jute elections would have a direct influence
.ipon the future co=me of the President, the
fact was almost universally ignored. People
- .looked upon this as a safe time to discuss and
settle domestic and secondary questions, and
:;he national question did not influence their
votes. sensible men saw that a Man - of An
drew Johnson's character would interpret the
who , e . contest as bearing directly upon him
self and his policy, and false and shallow as
his , conclusions-are, it is easy to see that he is
flattering himself with the dPirsive idea that
he ;s safer, to-day, in carrying out his revo-
Jutionary seheme , 2, than he was before the
Actions. He has unwittingly done the
.country a service by riving it this forewarning
.fd his de,igni.. "Forewarned is forearmed.'
THE STAGE AT PRESENT.
The degeneracy of the modern drams. has
- been a frequent text for newspaper and other
dissertations. In Paris, the home of polite
learning and refmenient, this degeneracy is
most strongly marked : and as Paris sets
:he fashion in all things, other cities follow
A even in this. There'has not for years been
play produced in Paris that can take a per
manent place in French literature. The plays
that succeed are merely sensational specta
cles, and the most succesSful are those where
rhea is the greatest amount of indecency in
dress, and the greatest amount of immorality
in plot and coarseness in language. The
tragedies of Corneille and Racine and
the comedies of AloWle are neglected ; but
the showy spectacle or the Blclic, «?; Bois,
and other dramas and ballets in which the
"nudities" are prominent features, will draw
crowded "muses for many montl i f As for
the opera, it produces nothing new that is
good. The extravaganza of the ';rand
Due/ass of'Gcrol4tein, by Offenbach, per
formed at, Ida little theatre, is "the only
'Parisian musical, novelty that is very attrae-
AS compared kith the works of Itorz+-
S i n s, Aub#, kteyeateer, Gounod and
other ; composers for the French stage, it is
itio - yeyJest trasb. /dal extrwal
Ntw STIOLE FRO:1( COATS

NEW STYLE FE.T2Ji COATE+.
This is a 4ismal view to take of the drama,
but it is the correct one. The stage unques
tionably exercises a great influence upon the
general tone of public morals, and the influ
ence now is positively bad. Managers are no
more to blame than the public, for they have
to supply what the market demands. There
is no remedy that can be suggested for the
depraved taste of the present time. But there
may be a reasonable hope that, as in past
times, the public will weary of shows and
"nudities, - and that a reaction may set in in
favor of well-written plays performed by good
artists. The present condition of things can
not exist long, and it is even now worth
while for some enterprising manager to to try
whether be cannot hasten the reaction by a
bold adventure with legitimate plays. Mr.
Booth's commanding talents always make
Shakespeare attractive. This is a proof that
the public taste is not wholly vitiated, and
there is reason to think that if other mana
gem and. actors were to labor as earnestly
and wisely as he does, their efforts would be
rewarded.
The European advices this morning bring
exciting but not unexpected intelligence
from Italy. The insurrectionary hordes
which•dashed across the frontier of the papal
dominions a few days ago; and have since
acted without organization or any definite
plan of operations, have concentrated under
the leadership of Garibaldi% eldest. son, and
had a battle—a sharp skirmish probably—
with the Papal Zouaves Sent down to pre
vent the 'union of the liberal forces. This
action took place at Veroli, a town in the
province of Frosinone,a few miles distant from
the border; and about Co miles in a direct line
from Rome. The papal troops were utterly
routed, and the insurgents were pre
paring to move upon the Eternal City.
The news of 'this encounter seems to have
created the greatest excitement in Italy, and
to have developed the latent.feeling of sym
pathy with the cause of the extreme Liberal
party. Garibaldi, from his prison house in
Caprera, has sent forth another fiery bulletin,
urging the Italian nation to arm and assist
him in redeeming the ;whole peninsula into a
united Italy; and the red ren;:ihilean 7 ;4lazzini,
who, it has been . stspected, is the adviser and
supporter of Garibaliii, apptars once mote
upon the scene Oi action with a revolutionary
x n al ) lf:,--ko, appealing to the Romans to rise,
now that the city is depleted of troops, and
declare for a republic.
But Republicanism will hardly be the order
of the day just yet. Victor Emmanuel is fully
aware that lie has lost popularity by his
recent timid resistance to Garibaldi at the
command of the French Emperor, and now
that the latter is out ofAthe way, it is not
unlikely that he will attempt to redeem him
self by giving hearty support to the popular
movement. It may be, after all, that there
has been an understanding between him and
• Garibaldi, and that the cordon of Italian
troops placed along the frontier,manifestly to
resist invasion, were really, as asserted by
the French, fixcd'in that position that they
might the more readily occupy the papal ter
ritory when the proper time came. It seems
to have come now, and we are informed that
gant and broad, and it suits the present taste.
In London there is as little to be :fOund to
gratify the lovers of dramatic literature .of a
high 'order as there is An Peri& Indeed the
Londoners seem to besatisfied to have repro
duced in the theatre a the extravagant dramas
and the showy spectacles of Paris. There
has been no really good, original tragedy or
comedy produced in London for many years.
n America the same state of things exists.
The rage of the people in New York is for
The Black Crook, The Devil's Auction
and other gorgeous spectacles, where the
ballet dancers are the chief personages of the
drama. The theatres that tai , to keep up the
legitimate drama try in vain to compete with
these. Even Mine. Itistori,who was so much
in vogue last year, fails to attract full houses.
The Italian opera also, with its great works
well performed, has . been eclipsed by
Offenbach's extravaganza of the Grand
Duchess, played by a moderately good
/com
pany at the French Theatre. There seems to
be but little chance for a successful season at
any of the theatres except those that present
gorgeous spectacles and ballets in excessive
undress.
The same state of things may be said to
exist in Philadelphia. The Black Crook is
altogether the most popular and profitable
of all the productions of the season. The
effort to revive legitimate comedy, with that
excellent actor and gentleman, Mr. Mur
doch, in the leading parts, has been less suc
cessful than that of last season. At another
theatre, where a new Irish drama has been
produced, the success has been very small,
and at another, where a clever actress has
appeared, first in legitimate drama and next
in adaptations of foreign sensational plays,
the same result has followed. In none of the
American cities has there been a good origi
nal play produced, and in the present
condition of public taste there is no reason
to believe that such works would be appre
ciated.
THE ASSAULT ON HOME.
the commanding officer, General Marmora,
will march his troops across the border and
possibly occupy Home itself. Tide, is simply
rumor, but it is at least plausible.
In the meantime the harrassed and dis-
consolate pontiff, caught in the whirlpool of
this revolution, and utterly helpless to resist
the current which is sweeping away from
him the last poor vestige of that mighty
temporal • power which his prececessora
wielded with such terrible effect, is looking
about for a place of refuge.. He would
probably be safe in Rome, if he would con
sent to resign his authority colic - fly, and
wield only his spiritual sceptre; but
this he will probably not be willing
to do, except under bitter Protest. It
is reported .that Catholic Bavaria has
offered him an asylum, and that he
will fly from Rome as soon as the insurgent
forces approach it. It has been asserted,
also, that our American Bishops, upon the
occasion of their recent visit, broached the
subject of the establishment of his spiritual
throne in the United States. Whether this'
is true or not, he could not place it in auy
land where he would be less liable to moles-.
tation. That he will be compelled to leave
Rome at any rate may be considered as a
fixed fact; and it is to be feared that the sons
of the Church in Italy, in the excitement of.
consummating Itallan•unity, will not bestow
much thought lipon the aged Pontiff whomth , iy have dethroned.
THE DAILY ENENINGIBDLLETIN.-PHILADELPHIA, WEDNESDAY, OCTOB
The President seems to have agreed with
Governor Swann, to make their rebellious de
monstrations simultaneously. It may be that
the President imagined that the parade of
BWRILM'S militia in Baltimore would impress
the country with the immense risk of inter
fering with his own revolutionary programme
at Washington. Governor Swann has
labored hard to break down the Union sen
timent of Maryland. An outspoken, dis
tinctive loyalty is an offence which he can
not endure. At Antietam he openly insulted
the loyal Governors of Pennsylvania and
New York, and from the time of his base
desertion of the Union party he has left no
effort untried to humiliate, weaken and
destroy the loyal sentiment of his
State. Added to this purpose of
currying favor with the rebel
element of Maryland, is an inordinate share
of personal vanity and conceit, which came
out yesterday in full blaze. His grand review
of the Maryland militia was a wonderful
opportunity for Swaim to display himself
before his rebel friends in Baltimore. His
chosen escort was a regiment of infantry
commanded by a rebel colonel,and composed
chiefly of ex-rebel soldiers, dressed in the
rebel color. Swann was in his element.
The pomp and circumstance of glorious war
girt him about. The men whose hands and
swords are forever red with the blood of his
country's defenders were his body-guard, and
he doubtless felt prepared to enact the Pratt
street tragedy over again, on' a
grander scale, whenever the President
should give the word. Swann has
not wisdom enough to know that he and his
grey-coated militia would be swept out of
Baltimore like a swarm of noxious insects,
at the first sign of a new rebellion. His
militia has been organized at a very heavy
expense to the State, not merely to gratify
his personal love of pomp and show. He
has other schemes in view in thus arming
and organizing a horde of returned rebels.
But his schemes, like those of his master at
Washington, are badly contrived and weakly
executed, and like many another scheme
which has been concocted against the peace
and liberties of the people, they will come to
naught.
We are glad to see that the Union men of
"Maryland have not allowed Swann to
make up his militia from the pure rebel
element of the State. They have
formed thei own regiments, and showedthe
Governor and his friends, yesterday, that the
loyal men of Maryland do not mean to leave
him a clear field for his operations. It is
galling enough to Union men to be forced
into a military association with traitors and
rebels and to be compelled to lend their pre
sence to grace the triumph of a renegade like
Governor Swann; but it is better that they
should submit even to these insults, than to
leave him to carry out his disloyal designs
unwatched and unchecked. If Governor
Swann has been assigned a phice by Andrew
Johnson, in his Congressional programme,
as many persons believe is the case, it is well
that there should be a few — Cition regiments
in Baltimore, to back th'V little force which
General trant is quietly concentrating at Fort
The National tni . on Club, of this city, as
will be seen by an advertisement in another
column, yesterday took decided . ground,
through its executive committee, in favor of
the nomination of (eneral (irant tor the next
Presidency. As this is a thoroughly Repub
lican organization, the movement is an im
portant one. They recommend a thorough
organization and the formation of Grain
Clubs in all the Wards of the city.

I cm now prepared to furnish railroads throughout the
United !States with my Patent Railroad Switches. by the
use of which the MAIN TRACK IS! NEVER BROi EN.
andrit is Impossible for any accident to occur from the
misplacement of switches.
The sac ing in rails, and the . great saving in wear of tha
rolling stock, which is by this means provided with
level, smooth, and firm track at switches in place of the
%usual morable rails and the consequent severe blows
caused by the open joints and battered ends, is a matter
deserving the especial attention of all Railroad Companies.
AS A MATTER Or ECONOMY AI..ONE, this inven
tion needs only to be tried to Insure its adoption; bat
beyond the economy THE PERFECT IMMUNITY
FROM ACCIDENT caused by misplaced switches
is O. BIM ec t not only of importance in respect •to

The offerings at the banks are far in excess of their

has ever met with at one time, and
it is seldom the case avhere so many go from oar

sixteen fatherless children left, and the most of
them have lost their only support. These men
were some of the best ot, the town. The vessel
was built this year, one of two that was to start
a new business here, that of maeliereling, and

The petitioner appeared by counsel, and the
Chief Justice inquired of the respondent if he
hadeounsel in Court? He replied-in . the:,nega
; tire, and said he would let the Matte be settled
by the Court.
The Chief Justice stated that he would prefer
that the case Should be fully argued. The re
spondent stated that the child and its mother
were formerly his slaves, and were set free by_ the
Constitution, which went into operation on Nov.
Ist, 1841. The child was" apprenticed Nov. 3d,
186-1, two days after she was emancipated, and the
law of Congress, called the Civil Bights bill, was
passed since the child was indentured, April 9tb,
18+1,1, and everybody told him that the law did
not interfere with this ease.
The petitioner under this indenture is not enti
tled to any education-"-a white apprentice must
be taught reading, writing and arithmetic. The
petitioner is liable to be assigned and transferred
at the of the master to any person in the
same county the white apprentice is not thus
liable. The authority of the master over the pe
titioner is described in the law as a property and
interest; no such description is applied to autho
rity over a white apprentice.
It is unnecessary to mention other particulars.
Such is the case, and I regret that I have been
obliged to consider it without the benefit of any
argument in support of the claim of the respon
dent to the writ; but I have considered it with
care, and an earnest desire to reach right conclu
sions. For the present, I shall restrict myself to
a •brief statement of these conclusions, without
going into the grounds of them. The time dyes
not allow more. The following propositions,
then, seem to me to be - sound law, and they de.
fide the case :
First—The first clause of the thirteenth amend
nient of the Constitution of the United States in
terdicts slavery and involuntary servitude, ex
cept as apunisliment for crime, and establishes
freedom as the constitutional right of all persons
in the United States.
Second—The alleged apprenticeship in the
present case Is involuntary servitude, within the
meaning of these words In the amendment.
.Third—ll this were otherwise, the indenture
set forth in the return does not contain impor
tant provisions for the security and benefit or the
apprentice which are required by the 'laws of
i
Mland n indentures of white apprentices,
ands therefore In contravention of that claws°
•of the first section of the Civil Rights law,
enadted by Gongret.s on April 9th, 1.866.
Fourth—This law having been enacted under •

[Special Despatch to tho Philadelphia Evening Bulletin. i
WASHINGTON, Oct. 16.—Whisky men from
New York appeared this morning, to continue
to impress on McCulloch the importance of
having the Revenue Board abolished. Wise
well's friends are firm in pressing his claims for
Messmoreis position, but with a slim chance of
being successful. Affairs relative to this case are
all quiet on the Potomac to-day.
It has been stated that the Impeachment ques
tion would be dropped now since the recent
elections, but a member of the Judiciary Com
mittee now here stated to-day that a majority of
the committee were in favor of Impeachment,
and he was confident that the project will receive
the approbation of a majority of the members
of the House—that the committee will press it at
an early day during the session of Congress.
Messrs. Thomas, Boutwell, Lawrence, Churchill
and Woodbridge, members of the Committee, are
now here. Of these, two opposed it last session
but now it is claimed that one has changed into
favoring the scheme. A member of the Com
mittee states that Mr. Wilson, chairman also
favors it. One member absent (Williams)
is known to be as eager for it now as at the last
session. This would give six out of nine mem
bers in its favor.

Important Judicial Decision:
BALTIMORE, Oct. 16th.—In the U. ..S. Circuit
Court yesterday, a hearing was had before Chief
Justice Chase, upon the petition of Elizabeth
Turner, eolored,by her next friend, Charles Henry
Minckey,addressed to the Hon. Salmon P. Chase,
Chief Judge okothe Circuit Court of the United
States in and for the Maryland district. The
petitioner alleges that she is‘the child of Elizabeth
31inekey, formerly Elizabeth Turner, that.ahe is
restrained of her liberty and held in
custody by Philemon T.Hambleton,Talbot county
Maryland, in violation of the Constitution and
laws of the United States. Also, that the peti
tioner is restrained of her liberty by virtue of
certain alleged indentures of apprenticeship
made not in accordance with the
laws of the State of Maryland,
as applicable .to binding of white
children. The petitioner prays the Court for a
writ of hal/Oil.? (Ylipts addressed to said Flambleton,
requiring him to produce in court the person of
petitioner,.and to certify the true cause of her de
tention, and to show cause, if any he has, why
petitioner should not be discharged.
Signed by IL Stockbridge and Nathan M. Purdy,
Attorneys for petitioner.
The petition was flied September 20th, and en
dorsed—" Writ granted as prayed, returnable
October nth, 1867.
"[Signed] S. P. CmAss:,
"Chief Justice of the United States."
The master, P. T. Hambleton, made the follow
ing return to the Court:
"In obedience to the command of the above
writ, I herewith produce the body of Elizabeth
Turner, together with a copy of the indenture of
apprenticeship, showing- the cause of her
desertion, and respectfully await the action
of sour honor."
The Chief Justice said the questions in the case
‘
n
were so grave and i portant that he wished to
be advised by , . he rgument of counsel on the
part of the-elai
. t, and that 11.. t would adjourn
the Court nn l taiday at 9 A: M., in order to
nive.the Oulu) nt or any person interested in the
deelskaroVtide case, au opportunity to appear,
apd If no person appeared he would dispose .of
the ease.
The Court eonveued at V _l. M. to-day, when
the Chief Justice delivered the following deel
elon :
The petitioner'in thii: case seeks relief from
restraint and detention by Philemon T. Hamble
ton, of Talbot county, in Maryland, in alleged
contravention of the constitution and laws of the
United
.States. TIT facts as they appear from
the return made by Mr. Hambleton to the Court,
and by his verbal statement made in Court and
admitted as nart of the return, are substantially
its follows:
, The petitioner, Elizabeth Turner, a young per
son of color, and her mother, were, prior to the
adoption of the Maryland Constitution of 1864,
slaves of the respondent. That constitution wont
into operation November first. 1864, and pro
hibited slavery. Almost immediately thereafter
many of the freed people of Talbot county were
collected together under some local authority,
the nature of which does not clearly appear, and
the young persons were bound as apprentices,
usually, if not always to their late masters.
Among others Elizabeth, the petitioner, was
tipprenticed to Hambleton by an indenture dated
Nov. 3d, two days after the new Constitution
went into operation. Upon comparing the terms
of this indenture, whl3ll is claimed to have been
executed under the law of Maryland relatimr, to
negro apprentices, with those required by the
law of Maryland in Indentures for white persons,
the variance is manifest.
