101111111110121 WARDEN COCEEltzv4glty„9l
The phrase at the head of this saw° is of
English origin. It is applied oAitdide of Lon
don to the narrow-minded bigotm the wilful
1, ignorance and',.the sublbre conceit of the
people in t4at flirt of the old City of London
5,1 that is presumed to be within the sound , of
t,t .Bow Bells. It is in that region that the
it principal papers, daily and weekly, of the
'22 'Great Metropo li s, are published. It is there
l v - 'that th e public sentiment of England is pre
,: sunned to be directed, at least, if not mann
i factored. The ideas there transferred from
de' anuscript to tapes are presumed to be of a
ce-superfine quality, and they possess a sort of
21 t semi-religious sanction from being developed
ras and published in the region where the. Dean
'.-.. '' tind Chapter \
of St. Paul's and the i
church
'wardens of varied adjacent parishes are
• ..,- supposed txrexercise a certain spiritual super
vision.
~ el Very naturally there are, at times, certain
loud protests from the provincial towns of
England, where more liberal ideas prevail,
and where people recognize a world outside
of England, against , this species of London
dictatorship. The Liverpool Post lately ut
tered such a protest in an editorial article,
• wherein it told the London Times and bther
- ..journals df its class, that a large part of the
English coUstantly abuse their own intelli
genceiand shut themselves out from mankind
by "a sort of chFchwarden cockneyism
(• -which cannot possibly be brotight into any
t, harmony with things as they are beyond the
the, belt of water which surrounds and isolates
( England." Any one who may be in the
exP habit of reading such papers as are here re
the ferred to, must see that there is a great deal
lefl
of truth in the remarks of the Liverpool
writer. There is a lofty arrogance in their
articles concerning all foreign countries that
is ridiculous now, when the influence of Eng
land, saw nation, in .the politics of Europe
and America, is reduced to nothing, and when
the people of other nations carry on their
affairs, social, political and commercial,with
out asking or taking the advice of the dog
matical writers of the churchwarden cockney
school.
The Liverpool writer farther exposes the
futile vanity he describes, by saying: "There
is no better example of our inabilty to deal
with foreign affairs than our wretched failure
as a nation represented by the Times, the
- Saturday Review, the Pall Mall Gazette
(when not asssisted by Mr. Conway), and
other leading journals, to understand the
doings of a people, like the Americans, allied ,
to us by blood and religion, and undivided
w„,,
from us by language or any of the other bar
.,
, t if i i,,. ; riers which necessarily separate us more or
:I*.t,k, e less from continental peoples." The igno
r ranee thus laid bare was so fully exposed
during the war with the Southern rebels, that
it might be supposed,that it would have been
corrected; or ' ; least it might have been ex
pected that some little modesty would restrain
the writers for the London journals when
-•• they undertake to criticise American public
men or discuss American affairs. But this is
not so. They are as pompous and super
cilious as ever, and they find a pretty large
number of people, in all parts of 'the world,
that eagerly swallow all that is thus offered
to therm
But, happily, whatever influence Church
warden Cockneyism may have among people
not able think for themselves, there is a large
and ever-growing class, on the Continent of
Europe and in the 'United States, , who have
enough independence of thought to disregard
all such dictation. The American war
against the'rebellion was carried on in utter
violation of English rules, and in opposition
to English advice. Its results falsified all
) London prophecies except those of the Lon
don Daily News and a few other journals of
liberal and enlightened views. The recon
struction schemes of Congress have been op
posed in London as warmly as they have
been by the Southern rebels, or their present
leader, Andrew Johnson. But this has ef
fected no change in the policy of Congress;
and although the Atlantic Cable newsman
every now and then sends word what , the
London Times says about America, there is
not one of the majority in Congress that gives
the despatch a moment's serious conaidera
lion. _ _
Cu.
kf,
It is a good sign that there should be at last,
in England, a show of manly opposition to
the presumption of the London 'newspaper
Writers. In Liverpool, litlimchester, Birming
ham and the other great provincial cities
there is a much better comprehension of
American affairs, and ,AS the newspapers of
these progressive towns gain confidence and
strength,there may be a prospect of suppress
ilia the "Churchwarden Cockneyism."
l''
HANCOCK AND SHERIDAN.
Why Mr. Johnson should have wilfully
exposed General Hancock to the rebuke
which Congress was compelled to give
that gallant soldier yesterday, is difficult to
guess. The preposterous message which the
President sent to Congress, in reference to
the inaugural order of General Hancock,
comparing him to Washington, and exalting
him above all other soldiers in America,
_could have but one result. It was intended
as a fling at and an insult to Congress, and
b- has been so accepted. When Mr. Eldridge
t alt yesterday put his neck into Mr. Johnson's
collar ' and proposed that Congress should
i r o n , atultiflaudatory y itself by passing resolutions
opin in reference to General Sheridan's successor,
:cde ~iip,Xnew, and his master knew, that he was
uth :only` invoking the official condemnation
• 1.4 which was convoyed by the action
' +atilt! , Rouse. The resolution:raising Ran
i, ; ,„0 If cock for restoring -Johnsonism p to Louisiana
fia and- Texas was tabled without debate by an
e ovcrwhelming vote, and that officer has his
' wofeaed friends to thank ,for being thus
f ' , faced upon the records of Congress, as one
bt worthy to be thanked for the course
haS chosen to accept in his new
ptsiticin.
`irhieis.,not the first tame that Congress has
• dup`on:a resolution of thankii to General
4)n the 11th- of April, 1t366, the
• • ittie fOnnal vote of thanks to
, 444 , distingnished gallantry at Get
-o There is Joy for his fortune ; honor
and *alb for his twabition.,
- it is a subject for honest regret that Mr.
,
Ici l Antsort has forced General Hancockinto
rids disagreeable position, and that he has
- consented to occupy it. It has
only 'resulted, thus far, in fastening a rebuke
upon an officer whose former record was a
bright and unsullied one, and in conferring
upon Sheridan, whom Hancock has been
used to disgrace, new honors at the hands of
Congreso-Mr. Washbum's resolution, Which
passed by the same large vote which
defeated that of Mr. Eldridge, "utterly
condemns the conduct of Andrew
Johnson in removing,that gallant
soldier, Major-General Sherian," and warmly
compliments General, Grant for his manly
protest against the removal of Secretary
Stanton and General Sheridan. This is all that
Mr. Johnson has taken by his motion, and
Congress could scarcely have done lees, in
vindicating its honor against the gratuitous
and stupid insult offered to it by the Presi
dent. o

THE ,SOLDIEII9 9 ORPHAN SYSTEM.
One of the most interesting departments o
our State Government is the Department of
Soldiers' Orphans, of which Col. (leo. F.
McFarland is the able Superintendent. The
extent of this noble institution in Pennsyl
;crania may be partially comprehended by an
examination of some of the statistics of its
operations for the past year which
have been carefully prepared and will
appear in the Superintendent's forthcom
ing report. Since the inauguration of the
Soldier's Orphan'system by Governor Curtin,
3,446 children, the orphans of Pennsylvania
soldiers, have been admitted into the schools,
homes and asylums selected by the ; State fbr
this purpose. Of this number 244 ave been
discharged, either on age or for other causes,
and 22 have died, leaving 3180 in charge
of the State on the Ist of Deceinb er, 1867.
Orders have been issued for 640 more chil
dren, while 540 applications are still under
consideration. These children; left destitute
by the death of their fathers in the service of
their country, are distributed among to t rty
schools, in all parts of the State, and are di
vided in the proportion of 1,847 boys to 1,333
girls.
The cost for maintaining the system during
the past year has been $449,925 430, within a
small fraction of the estimated amount. At
the last hours of the last Legislature the
Senate very unwisely cut down the appro
priation $lOO,OOO, and the deficit for the
twelve months represents precisely that
amount.
The good that is being accomplished by
these orphan schools cannot be fully esti
mated. Four thousand otherwise destitute
boys and girls are being well cared for by
the Commonwealth, which thus recognizes
a solemn obligation to those who
went into the field under a 'pledge
that their children should not suffer
loss by their death. The system is
so administered as to raise the children to
positions of usefulness in the State, by im
planting in their minds a good English edu
cation, by inculcating sound moral princi
ples, by encouraging habits of neatness, dis
cipline and industry, by stimulating all
laudable ambition and in all ways preparing
them, as good men and women, to take hon
orable places in the community.
The Legislature, in its appropriations,
should take broad and liberal views upon this
subject. It is not only that the honor of the
State is pledged to do a solemn duty to her
fallen heroes, but the future prosperity of the
State is to be promoted by the education, im
provement and elevation of these orphan chil
dren. Money wisely spent in this way is a
safe and good investment, which will be re
turned a hundred-fold in the future influence,
mental, moral and physical, which these chil
dren will exert as they come upon the busy
stage of life.
0.7319LA1NT WE THE PO3LicE.
correspondeq Who suffered at the hands
of the police at the sale of the tickets for the
Dickens Readings, wrote to uS, too late for
yesterday's paper, the following note:
Mr. Editor: Permit me to call attention to the
. •
manner in which the police performed their du
ties this morning at Concert Hall. I sent a per
son in my employ to procure tickets, and he took
his place in line at three o'clock, remaining there
until a few minutes past eight, when I relieved
him. There were about twenty, persons ahead
of him, and owing to the crowding and pushing
of those in the rear, these were huddled together
on the Steps. I remained at my place about half
an hour, when, without any explana
tion, a squad of police rushed upon us
with uplifted maces, and pushed us out
into the • street. My 'remonstrance against
the injustice was met by a threat and a farther
assault. Finding it impossible to recover my
place, I applied to Chief Ruggles, .who referred
me to the Lieutenant of the - District (Fifteenth
and Filbert). The only satisfaction I received
from him was that, it I had any complaint to
make, I could do 80 to—morrow morning, at ten
o'clock. My offer to substantiate my charge
availed nothing. Ile knew nothing of it, and
would not investigate it. Now, I desire to call
the Mayor's attention to this matter; for if peace
able citizens; in the pursuit of legitimate busi
ness, are to be thus imposed upon by those whom
they are taxed to support, it Is time the public
were informed of it. VICTIM.
It is to be hoped that on future occasions
of this kind there will be sncl4 orders given
to the police on duty as will save gentlemen
from the kind of violence and abuse described
in this communication. The public do not
care how partigo employed by speculators
may be watched, and ,at times restrained.
But even they have a right to be protected
from such treatment as our correspondent suf
fered.
The French proposition that the coin of the
civilizeirivorld should be unified by the adop
tion of some standard, to which all should
conform, has found general favor in this
country, and it has advocates among all
persons who have, transactions : with, foreign,
firms. The subject has been thoroughly dis
cussed, and the advantages of the system in
doing away with complicated accounts, sys
tems of exchange and the perplexities which
beset travelers, have been amply proved. The
matter assumed tangible shape yesterday
when Senator Sherman introduced a bill
to the Senate • arranging for the al
most immediate conformity of our coinage
to that of France, with the Jive
franc piece as the unit. This was the
original design, and while it met with opposi
tion from certain unreasonable patriots, who
conceived that the United States dollar should
lave been selected as the unit, and all the
world should have conformed to it, reasonable
men perceived that the French coin was
better for several reasons, among which was
the fact that nearly every. nation in Europe is
already familiar with it and its subdivisions.
The only really nettessary qualification was
that the standard should belong to a decimal

...nammimemin
systetn, and the French five-franc, piece
conforms to this requirement. ; 0
Mr. Shermim's bill is, upon the Whole, a
good one. The two principal objections to
it are that it proposes, first, to place upon
the unified five-dollar , gold piece, an an
nouncement of the equality of its value with
the French twenty-five franc piece, and of
the British pound, if the English govern
ment conforms to the standard. If this is
done in the case of all the nations who agree
to the proposed plan, we shall have the whole
alphabet and a few letters over, placed upon
our cash, and the fair Goddess of Liberty,
who has always reposed thereon amid her
circlet of stars, will be literally crowded
off. The second objection is that the bill
provides for the abolition of three and five
cent pieces. With the first we can
'easily dispense, but the five-cent
coin is necessary to the convenience of the
people, and, as its existence does not conflict
in any manner with the proposed unification,
there is no good reason for doing away with
it. The public will readily compteheml that
the five-dollar coin will pass current in cer
tain countries, without carrying about them
metallic reminders of the fact, and they will
agree more pleasantly to the alteration of the
whole coinage, if they are, not robbed of their
small change. The bill has been referred to
the Finance Committee, and it is to be hoped
it will be subjected to these modifications
when it is reported upon.
J. B. Lippincott & Co. have received from
Hurd & Houghton ,a new work on Spanish-
America. It is called "Four Years among
the Spanish Americans," and comprises the ex
periences ynd observations of the Hon. F. Hasi
saurek, late U. S. Minister to Ecuador. It is re
markable that so little is popularly known of the
social, domestic and political condition of so
ciety in South America, and especially In the
countries lying along the western and north
western coast, Columbia, Ecuador, Peru and Bo-
Rm.
Mr. Hassaurek has evidently written his book
with a determination to tell the plain truth, the
whole truth and nothing but the truth, and a
melancholy picture it is that he paints of life in
Ecuador and in Spanish-America generally.
With a lovely climate, a productive soil and a
healthy temperature,
."Every prospect pleases,
And only man is vile."
The personal habits of the people of Quito, the
disgusting filth of the city, the wretched moral,
intellectual and political condition of the coun
try, the cruel administration of law, the general
absence of all elements of personal or national
nobility, industry, energy, or greatness of any
sort, aro all sketched by the author with a vigor
ous, unsparing and impartial pen. The volume
is a valuable one, and sheds mush light upon a
portion of the Western Continent of, which very
little has been written or known. For sale by J.
B. Lippincott & Co.
Ticknor & Fields have issued the fourteenth
and last volume of their beautiful little "Diamond
Dickens." It contains several "Uncommercial
Traveler" papers,not included in any other Ame
rican edition; a number of Christmas Tales—
contributions to the annual Christmas Stories—
especially collected and revised for this Edition
by Mr. Dickens himself; a complete index of cha
racters introduced in Mr. Dickens's novels, and a
synopsis of the principal incidents, prepared for
this edition. The "Diamond Dickens" was a
happy thought of the publishers, presenting a
pocket edition of the greatnovellet not only won
derfully compact in form,but beautifully printed,
illustrated and bound. Since Mr. Dickens has
recognized Messrs. Ticknor &Fields as his autho
rized publishers, this enterprising house has is
suellthree new and handsome editions, the
"Charles Diy:kens," the "Illustrated Library" and
the "Diamond," each of which is, of ifs kind, a
model of typography and the book-making art..
They may be found at G. W. Pitcher's.
"Child-Pictures from Dickens," is the happy
title of a pretty volume just published by Tick
nor & Fields. This volume contains "Little
Nell," "The Marchioness," " Paul & Florence,"
" The Fat Boy," " Smike," and " Oliver Twist."
Each is told as a distinct story, preserving, in the
main, the original language, with only such
additions as are necessary to weave the frag
mentary narratives into consecutive shape. The
idea is a very attractive one, and In the
beautiful form in which it is presented, with
handsome illustrations by Eytingc, it will be a
most popular juvenile. For sale by G. W.

Harper & Brothers WINO just issued a new book
of fairy tales. It is called "Comfort's Folks and

never seem to surfeit the youthful appetite, and
this new contribution to the stock will be hailed
with as much pleasure as if it was the first book
of the kind ever published, For sale by T. B.

The Stanton Case.
[ Special Degpatch to the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin.]
WasitiNGToN, January 7.—The report of Sena
tor Iloward in the case of Secretary Stanton,
considered by the Military Committee this morn
ing. and which will be laid before the Senate in
executive session to-day, is very lengthy, cover
ing upwards of a hundred sheets of foolscap pa
per. The following is an abstract of the docu
ment:
On the 12th of August last the President of the
United States suspended from office the Hon.
Edwin M. Stanton, Secretary of War. It was
during the recess of the Senate, and, ae the Ten
ure of Office act, of March 2, 1867, requires, the
President has sent to the Senate a message re
porting to them the suspension, with the evi
dence and reasons for his action in the case.
He designated General U. 8. Grant to
perfoten,temporarily, the duties of the office, and
General Grant has since acted in that capacity.
That act
m
eection 2, provides that when any ofli
r who is appointed as aforesaid, that is, by and
with the advice and consent of the Senate, ex
cepting Judgea of the United States Courts,
shall, during the recess of the
Senate, be shown, by evidence
satisfactory to the Preeldent,to be guilty of mis•
conduct in office, or of crime, or for any reason
shall become incapable or legally disqualified to
perform its duties, in such case, and in no other,
the President may suspend such officer, and
designate some suitable person to perform, tem
porarily, the duties of such office until the next
meeting of the Senate. and untirthe cam shall be
acted upon by the Senate. The etatute adds :
"And if the Senate shall coneur in such
suspension, and advise and consent to the re
moval of ouch officer, they shall so certify to the
President, who may thereupon remove such of
ficer, and, by and with the advice and consent of
the Senate, appoint another person to such of
fice. But if the Senate shall refuse to concur in
inch suspension, such officer so suspended shall
forthwith resume the functions of his office, •and
the powers of the person so performing its duties
in his stead shall cease, and the official salary of
such officer shall. during such suspension. belong
to the person so performing the duties thereof,
and not to the officer so suspended. Provided,
however, that the President, in case he shall be
come: satisfied that such suspension was made on
insufficient grounds, shall be authorized at any
time before reporting such suspension to the Se
nate, as above provided, to revoke such suspen
sion and to reinstate such officer in the perform
ance of the duties of his office."
From these provisions it is entirely plain. that
Congress, in the act referred to, intended that no
removal of such officer should take place but by
the coneent of the Senate, or any suspension
from office of such officer except for his mis
conduct in office, or for some crime, or on ac
count of some physical or mental incapacity. or
some legal disqualitication. The act requires
that before the President can order such suspen
sion, ho shall have evidence satisfactory to him
that some ono of these causes exists. He
must be satisfied with the evidence, and the
evidence must be such as tends to establish
the existence of some one of those distinctly
enumerated causes, and not merely that there fs
a difference of opinion between him and the in
cumbent, or mere mutual dislike. Both are ap
pointed by the Constitution. Both are officers of
the law, bound to perform, for the people, the
duties imposed by the law, and the one no - more
and to no greater extent than the other. Their
duties may greatly differ in public Importance,
but the obligation is exactly the same. It is to
the law that each is responsible. The first prin
ciple of constitutional government involves this
responsibility, and no official, however high, is
above the law, or entitled under our system to
claim for himself impeccability or immunity.
That, monarchical principle finds no place in
the republican system cinder which we
live. Ho - who seeks to resort to it
seeks to destroy - liberty. Your committee do
not stop to discuss the constitutionality of the
Tenure of Office act. Mr Johnson,notwithstand
leg his strenuous opposition to and ,his former
veto of the 'measure, chiefly on the ground of the
want of constitutional warrant has, by his pro
ceeding now under consideration, recognized its
binding force. He has adopted it as the
rule of his condnct by actually using and
employing the power created and existing only
by the act itself—the power of suspension ; and
it only remains for us to give our views of the
sufficiency of the evidence and the reasons on
which he relies to justify his action.
To this duty wo now address ourselves. A'
careful perusal of his report to the Senate shelve
that his first or general reason for the suspension
of Mr. Stanton was that he refused to resign when
requested; and stated in his reply to the request
that public considerations of a high character.
which had induced him to continuo at the head
of the Department, constrained him not to re
sign before the next meeting of Congress.
The correspondende is as'follows:
' On the sth of August, the President addressed
him the following curt note:
"Sir Public considerations of the highest
character constrain me to say that your resigna
tion as Secretary' of War will be. accepted."
This was saying to Mr. Stanton in plain lan
gauge i "Your continuance in officels injurious
to the highest interests of the country." H.ad Mr.
Stanton been guilty of official misconduct, had
be committeffsome trime, or had he become in
capacitated or disqualified for the perforatanco of
_ his duties as the law contemplatekthis note would
have perhaps been faultless in the point of ofilifial
courtesy; but as nothing of the kind was intended,
the style of the -communication we think was
abrupt and 'overbearing, and such as to excite
feClillg. , The• law, protected 'Mr. Stanton in his
place. He had exactly the same right to it as
Mr. Jolturion had to his. .
Onthe same day Mr;lltenton sent to the Presi
dent the following reply:
Wan Derastrarsuer, Aug, 6,---A9ir: Your note
Lae beerereceived, stating that publle.eonsiders
tons of a high character constrain you to say
' that my resignation as Secretary of War will bo
accepted. In reply, I have the honor to say that
public considerations of a high character, which,
alone have induced me to continue atsthe head
of this Department; constrain me not to retagn
the office of 'Secretary of Var. before 'the bout
meeting of Congress." And thereupon and with
out any further correspondence, intercourse or
.explanation s thePresident,on the; 2th et the same
month, suspended him frOm his office. The order
of suspension was made,putting Mr. Stanton oat
and putting Gen. Grant into the office, before
the writing of the letter of the 12th by Mr. John
son, and Mr, Stanton's reply of the same date, so
much commented upon in the report, and which
we are about to notice.
Mr. Johnson, in his report, as one principal
reason for the suspension, characterizes the note
of Mr. Stanton as "a defiance and something
more." It was no defiance. What it asserted
WAS plainly this, that those "public considera
tions" which moved Mr. Johnson to desire to get
rid of him were those which induced him to re
main.. The fact was already made public by_ Mr.
Johnson himself that in the Cabinet councti,the
preceding June Mr. Stanton bad dissented , from
the opinions of the Attorney-General in reference
to the true meaning aid effect of the Reconsinte-
Oen acts of March '2d and Marin 23d,1867, which
opinions Mr. Johnson had adopted and acted
upon. The whole country had seen that if those
opinions were carried out in practice, as Mr.
Johnson proposed they should be, and as he in
structed his subordinates to carry them out, the
plain intention of Congress in regard to the re
construction of the rebel States would be de
feated. Mr. Stanton had expressed his dissent
from those opinions, and refused' to countenance
an artifice which had occasioned the assembling
of. Congress on the :k1 of July. Congress, to the
exclusion of all other business, passed at that
meetina third act on reconstniction, setting
aside the
dangerous interpretations of the Attor
ney General of the prevotts acts. As he had done
to the former bills, Mr. Johnson had vetoed this
also. It was notorious, as notorious as the
elaborate vetoes aided by his spagehes and con
versations and •the corps of presses in his
interest could make it, that he was .strongly
opposed to everything of the kind, and that
be intended to render all• such legislation
abortive. He had not only used his influ
ence and patronage to that end, but
had strenuously opposed, denounced and
endeavored to defeat and even to veto the amend
ment to the Constitution, known as artiste 14th,
passed June 16th, 1866, intended at that time as
a basis of reconstruction. His whole course of
conduct was notoriously in open, violent an
tagonism to the will of the nation, and as
expressed by the two Houses of Congress,
evincing ut times a disposition, unawed by
the Constitution and his oath of office,
to disregard their legislation, and even
to disperse them, and seize, if possible, the reins
of absolute power; and many of the isest and
most patriotic in the land were filled with appre
hensions by hie angry fulminations. Mr. Stan
ton, on the other hand, favored a faithful execu
tion of these acts., They were laws of the
land, and he would not Beek to defeat their
• object by any means direct or indirect,
and he had reason to believe, and did believe,
that if lie resigned his post Mr.
Johnson would fill the vacancy by the appoint
ment of some person in accord with himself in
his plans of obstruetion.and resistance to the will
of congress. Such .appointment would, by the
Constitution, have remained in force until - the
end of the session of the Senate. The Senate
wasinot to meet on the 21st of November, and
the session would not probably have expired un
til the first Monday in December, the commence
: ment of the next regular session of Congress.
Thus the appointee would have remained in
office four months, during which the reconstruc
tion acts, the registrations and several dections
were to take place in the rebel States. ItWas
undoubtedly the aim of Mr. Johnson, if we may
judge of his previous conduct, to avail himself, if
practicable, of this lapse of time to carry out his
scheme of obstruction. and by every
means in his power, and they' were
many, to hinder and thwart the intended
operation and effect of those statutes. And thus
when bluntly asked to testa under the pretext,
of public considerations of a high, character,
which to him meant obstruction and hinder
anee, Mr. Stanton refused to yield his consent to
such considerations, and strongly and manfully
opposed to them the duty incumbent upon him
to resist their accomplishment by remaining at
his post and seeking to execute those statutes
faithfully and effectually. Such, and such
only, were the public considerations
of a high character, which he. re-echoes back to
the President for not resigning his office. They
were considerations due to law, considerations
of the very highest import for the promotion of
the peace of the country, the early readmission
of the insurgent States, the return of commercial
prosperity and of an honorable and lasting re
conciliation. On this subject the report of the
President contains this singular language:
"Whatever cogency these considerations
may have had upon Mr. Stan-.
ton, whatever sista he may have
had to entertain such considerations, what
ever propriety there might be in the expression ,
of them to others, one thing is certain, it was
official misconduct, to say the least of it, to
parade them before his superior officers." Is
this so? Has it come to pass in the United
States that because a public officer refuses to
resign his place on the demand of the Executive,
and refuses because in his own opinion public
interest requires it, he becomes guilty
of official misconduct and worthy of beingsic
graded from his office? Ilse; then the Presidetit.
for the time being dressed in a little brief author
ity, is the final and infallible judge of what puts
lic interests require. Congress and its laws are I
nothing,and however wanton and wicked he may
be it becomes official misconduct to differ with
him in opinion and make known to
him the difference. Is Mr. John
son serious in this - most arbitrary
assumption ? Can he longer brook to be told
that his course is wrong ? Does he regard a mere
difference of opinion as to the propriety of carry
ing out the legielation of Congress as official
'misconduct? Itwould seem so from the position
here taken, but we cannot countenance a doc
trine so absolute and despotic, It is not merely
a step towards tyranny, but is itself the es
sence of tyrann'. Mr. Johnson, in a
subsequent part of his report, tells us that
what he claims is, that he is the responsiblethead
of the administration and when the opinions of
the head of any department are irreconcilably
opposed to those of the President in grave' mat
ters of policy and administration, there is but
one result that can solve the difficulty, and that
is severance of relation. This he adds, in the
past - Watery - of the - Government, - has-always.
been the rule, and it is a wise one, for
differences of opinion• among its members
must impair the efficiency of any administration.
It is unnecessary to explain the field of discus
sion and speculation bore presented. Washing
ton retained both Jefferson and Hamilton in his
Cabinet, although they were obstinately and vio
lently opposed to each other on the gravest mat
ters of policy and administration, and although
Jefferson - freely criticised and endeavored to
thwart nearly every great measure favored by
Washington; - or if. either of the
Secretaries was seeking to render
nugatory acts of Congress already passed and
in force, the duty of the Executive to carry out
the laws had not then become the subject of
debate in the Cabinet. That this startling pur
pose of Mr. Johnsen was formell on the differ
ence of opinion between him and Secretary Stan
ton, is sufficently sustained by the facts already
referred to; and still more significant is the fact
that the report before us does not undertake
to state what real difference of opinion there was.
Its daring was not quite equal to this. • It no
where sets forth the subject of the matter which
was the theme of this difference of opinion, while
the, surrounding facts and circumstances, taken
in connection with this studied silence, leave no
doubt that the real question'of °difference was
whether, the Reconstruction acts of Congress
should be faithfully executed according to their
true intent and meaning.
To entertain a contrary purpose was ,suffi
ciently high-handed., To:confess it to. the world
in solemn communication to the Senate required
more nerve than the writer posseesed.
Mr. Stanton, then,was asked to resign becatum
he Would not be a party to such a scheme, and
because,foreseeing that the scheme would be ear
-1 ried out in case he should give Mr. Johnson a
chance to appoint a pliant 'and censenting Sees
retary to. Wattle vacancy, he refused to fe. 8 ,44.1:

THE DAILY EVENING BULLETIN.-PHIL

LATER 'FROM WASHINGTON,
JOHNSON-STANTON CASE.
The New Orleans Riot
MR. JOHNSON'S RESPONSIBILITY
Senate Recommended to Re-instate
Continued from the Second Edition
When &teat and discouragement darkened the
land, be was not appalled, but his genius , pierced
the gloom and saw' the light of approaching
triumph. We cannot sympathize with that
spirit which, without fixing upon him so much
as a plain charge of misconduct, would cast him
down and ruin his well-earned reputation.
The President's report. not content with
,stating and relying upon the causes which existed
anterior to the suspension, goes further and
presses into its service a fact that transpired
afterwards, 'which, of course, is not entitled to
the slightest weight as a reason for it. it com
plains that on being informed by a note from Mr.
Johnson that be had been suspended, Mr. Stanton
replied in the following note, August 12.
(Committee here quote SecretarY Stanton's
letter replying to the note from the President in
forming hire of his suspension.]
The report next takes up the charge made by
the President, that Secretary Stanton concurred
in the veto of the Tenure of the Office bill, and
says that Mr. Johnson alleges that when he
vetoed the Tenure of Office bill, Mr. Stanton con
curred with him and the rest of the Cabinet,
holding it to be unconstitutional, and he
now charges Mr. Stanton with a
change of opinion, partaking of
had fa.th, in lava ing the act as a prot.ction against
the efforts to suapend ohm Ile aticaks to the effect that
the Secretary ought still to regard it as invalid and !nom
erative, and declares that if anyone of his Cabinet oftleent
bad then said to him that he would avail himself of the
he
of that Bill in case it became a law,
be should not have hesitated a moment as
to his removal. It is true that Mr. Stanton thought that
the bill was unconatitutional. and was opposed to its be
coming a law. Such' was sincerely his view. Some of
the opinion, ean others country have entertained the
mule while equally able have held a con
trary doctrine, among whom was Mr. Webster. This
controversy is almost as old as the government, but
does it follow that because a public officer has
entertained ouch an opinion of a proposed measure, he is
to carry his opinions ao far as to treat it as cold when
lot malty enacted into a law by a two-thirds vote of each
flume of Congress? Mr. Johnson has not dared
to do this, for his very order suspending Mr.

The next point of the President's message noticed by
the committee is that wherein he charge's that Mr. Stan
ton wae in accord with his (Mr. Jo mon e) policy and en
detivolea to make him partly responsible for it. The re
po; t of the committee pays in this relation that it is not
tr lie, and in mu pport of the assertion, quote at length Mr.
Stantou's testimony on the gelded, given before the Im
peachment Committee of the House, wherein he
details what took place in the Cabinet after
Mr. John. on became Pi ealdent together with the action
of Mr. Lincoln, Jaet previous to his death in reference to
reconetructicn.
This report says it Is evident that Mr. Stanton was not
the originator of the plan adopted, but that Mr. Seward
Cc ea the responsible author and assignor. That it if,
evident that Str. Stanton was opposed to the exclusion of
the blocks in commencing reconstruction at the Bouth.but
finally gave assent to Johnson's in actions to the North
Carolina Convention, from the fact that it was regarded
ntemorary to control Congress b all the Cabinet and
at pe p ars. hi the various in. - truction y s
given to the , pro
visional governors by Mr. Seward. In regard to Mr.
Johnson's claims as being rest ontible for the con
duct of the Executive Department, the report
sag whether be submit his reeponeibility for
the drtpatches from the Secretary of State to
the Pronsional Governors and maintains that he must
admit it, and be bound by them. Yet in hie message to
Congress in MS. be suppressed such intimations and
astonished the country by announcing that ho had fully
reorganized and reconstructed the rebellions States, and
nothing remained for Congress to do but to pros upon
the naked questions of regulating the elections,
and qualifications of the Senators and Repre
sentatives elected. Who, then, has committed
the offence, if it be one, of changing front on
this great question of power- Congress ? Who has been
the only and original opponent of granting the colored
man the ballot, for hit protection, and for the security of
the country against another tehellion ? Not Mr. Stanton.

the same, and Mr. Johnson knew teem full

rate your committee have in vain searched fur others.
Moth. r and rpecisi ground of , complaint alleged
against Mr bummon. in tile message, is that he omitted
to con laillnicate to the President the telegraphic despatch
of (..en. Baird. dated :18th July. 1066, relative to the State
Con\ el bell of Loustana, then about to meet at
sew Orleans, and that the Secretary did nut send Gem

that these passages tram the message show plainly enough
that the purpose of the author is to pm ove that hi had no

Secrotary's delinquency in not sending Gen. Baird in

necessary to show the President's rtiepontiellity, he surely
is
ave ne re mon to complain, for the charge itself
naturally challenges a careful consideration of the facts.
First—ls there redeem for supposing that Mr. Johnsen
would, in caw this despatch had been made known t,
him immediately on its receipt by Mr. Stanton, haul
n each steps as would have averted the riot?
,',econd—Vilna Mr. Stanton in fault for not Bending irs

Third—Was he in fault for not communicating this
despatch to the President?
After quoting the despatch, as sworn to by Gen. Baird.

frunieried and sworn to by Gen. Baird. In the copy
thereof inserted in the President's message, the words
'at once' are found between "me" and "by." The copy

that furnished by the President implies it strongly. The
comparative expressions aye as follows:

The report dart not'attempt to account for this dis
crepency, merely mentioning the fact. The report detain
at length the origin of the Convention. the fans relating
thereto being taken from the report of the Select C
mittee of w
the Hoe of Representatives on the Nee

The house there cites the order of Gen. Banks, March
i11th.1864, directing en election of Delegates for the Coe

prived of its power in only one of three ways—an ad
journment sine die with the consent of the Commanding
General; a revocation of the military order convoking
them, ore formal readmission of the State by its Senator ,
and Representatives into Congress "
In discoursing of the powers of the Convention in re
ference to its own sittings, and so forth, the report reform
at length to the principles of parliamentary law appdra

impending violence. and ft is' vain for hint to
deny a fact so well established. Mr. Stanton wait not

there was any danger of popular violence arising from the
threatened arrests on the writs that were to issue. There
was nothing in it to raise an ADpreherlziptl of math a dan

soriounced no armed violence and no danger of vomiter
outbreak, while that tent to Mr. •Johnson the same day
by Voorhees and Herron, and which Mr. S anton never
raw till long afterwards, not only advised thatthe Grand
Jury were acting on charges against the delegates, but
that "It would be impossible to execute civil process
without certainty of riote' Was not thin despatch (rem
the LieuteGovernor and Attorney-General a warning to
Mr. Johneon of the approaching riot?
Mr. Stanton, as the evidence shows, had no knowledge
even that the convention was going to assemble save
what was contained in Gen. Ilaird's despatch. Is It not
preposterous, then, to suppose that if he had at once car
ried the GentraPe despatch to the President, the latter
would havepaid any attention to it?
The cemtnittmenext proceed to point sot what the Pre
eideut should have done, and in reply to the statement
that Mr. Stanton should have instructed General Baird,
they give Mr. Stanton's letter to the Committee on New
Orleans Riot, dated January Slat, 1867, wherein the Sec
retary explains at length the eircumstanees under which
ho received the telegram in question and his reasons for
not sending Instructions to General Baird.
The Committee then conclude their repost as follows :
"And we think these reasons for withholding further in.
structlons from General Baird entirely suilicient, core
sidesing the ignorance in which Mr. Stanton actnatly
was of the real state of things in New Orleans. Mr. John.
eon, however, can plead no such ignorance, for ho was
kett fully informed by Reeler. Voorhees, Herron. and
others, of °whet was going on, and seems designedly - to
have concealed it, from the Secretary.. Ought not
such alarming facts to have been Made

the fact of that incendiary and fatal despatch
to Voorhees an the 20th, end yet deliberately velthnolds
all these pregnant facts front the Secretary. Re now has
the heart to reproach hint with not having sent the nee
mesary orders to prevent the riot. Such an accusation
needs no further comment. The President, in a
complaining mood, says: "It is not the fault or error
or omission of the President that Bite military coin
mender was left •without instructlens, but for all
omissions, !or all errors, for all failures to instruct, when
instructions might have averted this calamity, the Peed
dent was openly and pereiatentiv held responsible. In
stantly, without waiting for proof, the delintr , ency of
the P esident wee heralded in every form of utterance.
Mr. Stanton knew that the Peesident was not responsible
for this delinquency. The exculpation wars in his power
but it was not given by him to the public, and only to the
President in obedience to a requisition for all the de.
steadier." Such an assertion as this, in view of the fact?,
an accusation co unjust, eo bold and audacious; will bear
ho further examination. When the character
of a faithful public officer is thus Restated,
end. the Chief Magistrate, in order to
acre niplith his ruin, presents himself as a false accuser,
e think the duty cf the Senate le plainly to ref met their
coLcintence in the euspenslon. The Committee therefore
recommend the passage of the following resolution, and
that the some he certified to the. President:
"Reeoived. That having considered the evidence and

From Harrisburg.
HART:MiI:RC, Jan. 7.—There is much excite
ment In legislative circles to-d . The House
le
meets at noon, and has a Repu an majority of
eight members. But in COOEC ence of the re
fusal of nine of the Republican embers to enter
the caucus, this majority is powerless to elect the
officers who were nominated last evening. These
Officers were Col. Davis, of Philadelphia, fur
Speaker; Gen. Selfridge, of Northampton; for
Chief Clark; Mr. tee, of Philadelphia, for Assist
ant Clerk.
The nine dissenting Republicans declare that
their opposition is based on principle; that they
are advocates of a free railroad law and cannot
vote for Col. Davis, whom, they regard as an
enemy of that measure. They express at this
hour (10 o'clock, A. 31.), a determination to sus
tain their opposition to the last. The result will
be in that case that the organization of the House
'will be retarded and the first vote for Speaker
may be forty-five for Davis, forty-six for Jones,
(Democrat) and nine (9) for McCamant, or some
other independent candidate nominated by the
dissenting nine.
Various reports are afloat that the i'bolt," as it
is called, is intended to affect the state Treasurer
ship. and is designed to operate against the
claims of the Western candidates for State
Treasurer.

Destruction off the Military Asylum,
, hear Auguste, Me.
AUGUSTA, Me., Jan. 6.—The destruction of the
main building of the United States Military
Asylum, by tire last night is complete. The ,
building was of wood, and was formerly what
was the hotel building before the Government
purchased the estate, which belonged to the late
Horace Beals, embracing what is known as the
Togus Mineral Spring property. It contained
not only looms for the men and officers'
quarters, but also the hospital, school-room,
and library, Nearly adjoining k, was the
new brick building erected the past summer,
containing a dining-room and sleeping apart
ments. This building was slightly damaged.
The other buildings saved were of wood, and are
the laundry, stable, four barns, and two ice
,bouses. The total loss will reach, it Is estimated,
about 0.50,00. The officers lost all of their
clothing. 31,pidr Cutler, who was In charge
of the institution, was not present, he
being in this city very sick. The fire broke
out about 934 o'clock, in the upper story of the
south wing of the main building, and in an hour
and a half it was a plle of charred remains. This
building was lighted by gas made of gasoline
manufactured on the premises, the machine for
manufacturing being in the upper story,
and the gas sinking by gravity, and
carried in pipes over the house. It is sup
posed that the fire originated from some imper
fection in the machine. The building being of
wood, and very dry, it was speedily, enveloped in
flames. It contained two hundred and seventy
patients, thirty-one of whom were in the hospi
tal department. The steam fire-engine on the
premises wasworked with but little effect, the
fire having got under such headway that it was
impossible to stay it.
. The patients had all retired when the the was'
discovered, but every efibrt was made by Dr.
Breed, Surgeon of the Asylum, and his assistants
to arouse thein and get those who were sick to a
place of security. Unfortunately, a barrel of
whisky, that was rolled out and ordered to be
destroyed. was taken in charge by some of the
soldiers, the head knocked out, and nearly every
soldier who could hobble about was In
a state of intoxication in a very
short time. Fights took place between
one-armed and one-legged .men. The scene in
the laundry building was one fearful to witness.
Nen fought each other with the fury of demons.
They were so crazed by the liquor they had
drank that they obeyed nothing. Men lay dead
drunk in the snow, and could not be aroused.
One of these intoxicated beings, while being con
veyed to this city, died from the effects of the
cold, absolutely frozen to death.
The Mayor of this city, on being informed of
the fire, immediately despatched teams to bring
the patients here. "'we hundred and forty are
now quartered in Waverly Hail where every
provision has been made for their comfort. A
tew have been carried to private dwellings. Ad
jutant-General Caldwell and Major Everett W.
Stetson, of the Governor's Council, were at the
fire,and rendered every assistance. Great praise
is ue to Col. Henry S. Osgoodttof this city, for
his valuable aid.

mErETTNO OF THE EII NATE.
The Senate waa called to order by Speaker
Graham.
The Secretary of State presented the returns.
Mr. Graham was re-elected Speaker, and do
livered the following address
ADDRESS OF SPEAKER GRAHAM
Senators: In assuming the responsible duties
of the Chair to which your partiality has called
me, I can only promise you to devote to their
discharge whatever ability I may possess, and to
give an earnest attention to the , business of the
Senate. The rules which govern this chamber,
if observed with ordinary strictness, are sufficient
to enable us to transact the Wariness of our con
stituents, and to frame such laws as may be
needed by the people of the State with due de:.
liberation, without protracting the session to an
unusual period. I shall in all kindness endeavor
to have those rules observed, and by every means
• in my power to preserve the dignity of this body,
and to expedite, as far as may be consistent with
a proper regard for the deliberate character of the
Senate, the consideration of the various legisla
tive measures to which your attention may be in
vited.
The important Interests of a great State are
entrusted to our care. The enterprising people
of a mighty Commonwealth, stretching from
Lake Erie to the Delaware, with resources as di
versified as they are boundless, look to us to leg
islate for their advancement in material pros
perity and moral greatness.
Let ns then see to it, that whatever measures
will develop the buried wealth of the State, will
make available the now inaccessible forests and
minerals of our mountains and the products of
our PC il, or whatever will encourage the labor
and industry of our citizens, and diffuse intelli
gence awing our children, shall receive our
prompt and cordial support.
Prominent amongst these,l take it forgranted,
a liberal "Free Railroad Law," which will extend
the benefits of our railroa system to every
corner of the Commonwealth, and to every re
cess in our valleps, however obscure or remote,,
will receive your early and careful attention.
The day for grants of special and exclusive privi
leges in the canyffig trade has passed. They
might possibly have been justified, or at least ex
cused in the infancy of our Commonwealth,when
money was scarce and capitalists few and timid;
but now, when wealth Is abundant, when capital
seeks everywhere for remunerative investment,
and while the larger part of tho vast resources
and productions of...the State lie hidden from
public view, and and shut out from the markets
of the world for want of transportation,a broader
and more liberal policy is demanded by the re
quirements of the times.
Not "the greatest good for the greatest num
ber," but the general good of all, should be our
motto and our aim. The voice of the great no
litical party, which for seven years has controlled,
the Legislature, and wielded the destiny of Penn
sylvania now represented by a,majority in each
branch of the Legislature, was heard in unmis
takable language on this subject, by its appointed
representatives in • convention at Williamsport
last summer; and the emphatic declarations of
the candidate of the minority for Gubernatorial
honors, both on the floor of this Senate, and
elsewhere, during the canvass of 1866, were en
dorsed by the other three hundred thousand
voters of this Commonwealth. In good faith and
in all sincerity, then, let us carry out the clearly
expressed will of the people of the State on this
all-important subject.
The war for the suppression of the rebellion
has left the nation burdened with a debt, the
magnitude of which seems to stagger the minds
of many, and crude schemes for its Meth:lite
postponement or virtual repudiation are openly
agitated. Though that debt, contracted to pre
serve the NATIONAL UNITY, had been teatimes
greater than it now is, the successful defence of
our common country against treason and de
struction would have been cheap oven at that
cost. The breaking. or this once hatted land into
fragments,anefffnierthrow of the work of our
fathers.would have been a calamity far above all
computation in mere dollars and cents. I think I
but utter the voice of Pennsylvania,a'State which
has been prodigal of the precious blood of her
eons, a-sacrifice costlier far than all money or
property, when I say, let that debt contracted for
a sacred object, dear to the heart of every patriot,
be sacredly and honestly paid. I mean not that
its whole weight should be imposed upon this
generation. Let there be no imprudent or un
necessary haste; but let the WORLD KNOW that
as our resources are ample and are constantly in
creasing. ODIC NATIONAL FAITH SHALL DE rag-
SERVED INVIOLATE and every obligation of our
Government shall be honorably redeemed.
Not at all inconsistent with these views would
be a large reduction or repeal of. the Internal.
Revenue taxes on the principal manufactures of
--the country. All the leading industrial interests
of the nation, and especially of our own State,
are now depressed and suffering in consequence
of the heavy and unnecessary burden or taxation
laid by Congress on our manufactures.
Vain are all our tariff laws for protection
against foreign competition, if our manufactu
rers are weighed down by an enormous and
grinding system of taxation at home. I trust
that Pennsylvania will demand of the National.
Congress immediate relief from the , heavy
burdens which oppress her labor and which
experience has shown to be no longer necessary.'
Grateful for the confidence reposed in me,
thanking you for the honor conferred by this
election, and soliciting your kind indulgence for
my errors, I have now only to ask you to, desig
nate a Senator to administer the official obliga
tion I am resulted to take on this occasion.
The Senate proceededto the election of other
officers.
Several ballots in the House resulted the same.
as the first. The House then adjourned till 12
o'clock to-morrow. Mr. MeCamant's friends will
not sup . ort a Democrat in any event,
