EVENING BULLETIN.
Monday. Blarch 30, 1868.
THE IMPEA CEILTIENT.
The trial of Andrew Johnson, President of
the United States, before the High Court of
Impeachment, will go on to:day, and it is to
be expected that no further interruptions of
it will occur. The delays and indulgences
already allowed have been unprecedented ;
but the judgment of the court will be the
more willingly acquiesced in when it is re
membered how kindly the criminal was
treated.
But the people are growing weary of the
a3nderness of Congress towards Andrew John
son, especially when they see him using the
authority Mill left to him to embarrass the
sountry and its elected representatives. There
is no instance in history of a man's being left
in full possession of the dignities and powers
st his office at the very time when he is on
ltial for.offences committed in office.
Therm mug soon he an end to this auomal
leas state of affairs. The trial Must go on
with all possible' speed, consistent with the
dignity of the Senate and the cause of justice.
The accused has had favors enough granted,
and now the people expect that the) argtt-
Penis and ttai Settimony shall go on unin
terruptedly and that speedy judgment be
rendered. The beginning of to-day's pro
ceedings will probably be received in time to
present them to our readers in to-day's paper.
WRENCH FREEDOM OF THE PRESS.
The peace which is the Empire in
France, in this happy age, is not very encou
raging to newspaper men. The Emperor, a
year or two ago, promised liberty of the press
such as had not been known in the country
for a long time. The result of this imperial
promise is that there are, at this moment,
more newspaper writers imprisoned in France
than in any country on earth; probably more
than there are in all countries put together.
A little paragraph translated from the Jour
nal de /Dario illustrates this. It says : "Day
before yesterday M. Martin Gilbert, manager
of the Pldlosophe, arrived at the prison of
Bainte-Pelagie to pass some time at that plea
sant refuge of Parisian journalism. They
would not receive him. All the rooms were
occupied ! As the Sixth Chamber does not
appear likely to cease condemning political
writers, Sainte-Pelagic will have to be en
larged."
It is only by such cautious' but poignant
satirical sentences that the Paris papers dare
to speak of the severe censorship under which
they labor. But this Journal de Paris does
not content itself with a single article on the .
subject. It appears that a certain M. Greppo,
former liberal deputy of Lille, returned lately
from a visit to Belgium, bringing with him a
copy of a cheap paper called I 'Etoile Beige.
He neglected or forgot to throw it out of the
car window before passing the frontier. But
the one harmless copy of the Belgian penny
paper was found on him, after lie entered
France ; he was arrested, taken before a
magistrate, fined a hundred francs, and sent
)o prison for a month ! The saucy Journal
de Paris says: "The imperial government
has just escaped a great danger. A former
snontagnard deputy, M. Greppo, came near
introducing into France a single copy of a
forbidden paper, the Belgian Star. But
that Providence which watches over
empires permitted a person in authority to
discover the incendiary paper on M. Greppo's
person. He was taken before the judge, and,
of course, acted the innocent. Ho. declared
that. a... fellow. =tering- ear. at Brussels
might, without- meaning harm, buy a paper
or a book to amuse himself; and that thus the
Belgian Star fell to his lot, just as the Con
sfrittitionncl might have done; and so it hap
paned that having bought the pestiferous sheet
on the territory where it grows naturfdly, ho
never thought of getting , rid of it before
crossing the line of tbe territory where it liet
tomes poisonous. Nevertheless he was sent
le prison for a month. After battle the dead
are buried. 'But am alive,' cries a poor
devil on whom they are Leaping earth. A
liwiss captain passing says: 'What non
sense I Bury him If we were to listen to all
of them,not one of them would be dead.' The
tiWikli captain was u great philosopher,' who
understood the principles of authority.' nut,
doee the clever Parisian journalist, - without
I violating the law concerning the press, show
the French people' how Napoleon 111. keeps
his promise to grant liberty to the press.
Some pretext will probably soon be found
• for the arrest of thid editor of the Journal .
I do Paris, who thus sarcastically exposes to
the world the fallacies of the Emperor's mode
of allowing liberty to the press. He and his.
colleagues in the prison, who are among the
brightest end cleverest of Frenchmen, max
choose to amuse themselves in their month's
of confinement by drawing up narrations of
their experiences as editors under the impe
rial regime. When this regime is ended, as
it may be before many years—perhaps before
many months—a compilation of such chap
ters of the experiences of 'French jour
nalists will prove to be among the most
curious and interesting illustrations of the
Decline and Fall of the Second Empire. In
,this country such dealings with the press as
those of Napoleon are scarcely comprehensi
ble. Americans can understand very well
that in time of war, and especially in time of
rebellion, severe measures must be used
against the cowardly treason which dares not
take up arms against the Government but at
tacks it through the press. But it is the boast
of Napoleon 111. that Franco is profoundly
peaceful' and "supremely prosperous. • And
yet at this time of supreme peace, happiness
and prosperity,Sainte-Pelagie is over-crowded
and a single copy of a cheap forbidden for
eign paper, accidentally found among the
effects of a traveler arriving in France, is
enough to condemn him. Napoleon 111. can
not feel very secure of his throne or of the
succession to it, when he dares not trust his
people and their newspaper organs to ex
press their opinions upon public questions.
SHAKESPEARE LIBRETTOS.
To the general audiences who have at
tended Mrs. Kemble's late readings, a very
entertaining feature has been the remarkable
class of people who carried their Shake
speares with them, and followed the text
closely throughout the readings. In the first
week, when it was necessary . to sit for au
hour before the performance'began, it was a
pleasant pastime to refresh the memory with
the play. But it was provokingly absurd to
see middle-aged men and women, some of
them, too, With a certain degree Of intelli
gence in their faces, poring over their books
while Mrs. Kemble was painting the charac
ters of Shalopeare for them,with all the vivid
outline and coloring of face and voice and
gesture. These remarkable people were evi
dently laboring under one of two delu
sions; Either they had gone to Concert
Hall, without any idea of what Mrs. Kern
ble proposed to do, and so never thought that
it was necessary to look at her, or they were
very anxious to note the passages which she
omits. The victims of the latter delusion
could sometimes be detected by the pencil
with which they industriously marked the
"cur passages. In some few cases, indis
creet young gentlemen were seen, sharing
this expurgating labor with the idols of their
affections, apparently in blissful ignorance of
the awkward passages which they were sure
to encounter, until they would be fairly en
tangled in them, and then there would be a
q ui ck ; closing of the book, and a slight change
of color,
onlequent upon the stupid ex
posure.
Pio. trick of following the text in such an
entertainment is a' most silly one. It was
bad enough at the Dickens Readings,
although there it was at least practicable, as
Dickens tells his stories almost verbatim,
from his adapted editions. But in the case of
Mrs. Kemble it would be almost incredible,
if it were not so frequently visible, that any
body should take the trouble, time and ex
pense of sitting two hours in a crowded hall,
to read what they could read with far more
propriety and convenience at home. Shakes
peare wrote, not for women and children,
but for the men of an age when the English
language bad a very different meaning and
use from that of' our day. The work of
putting his plays into such a form and re
ducing them to such, dimensions, as to
make them presentable to the more
fastidious taste of the best classes
of modern society, commenced by Charles
Kemble and completed by his daughter, was
one of extreme difficulty. It required the
highest mastery of the genius of Shakespeare,
the clearest judgment and the most delicate
perceptions. How well the work was done
is patent to all who have heard its results.
And when it has been so well done it would
be laughable, were it not exasperating, to see
people clumsily stumbling and bungling over
the attempt to follow Mrs. Kemble through a
play, of the revised stritture of which they
have not the faintest idea. If such people
had the slightest realization of the figures
'which they out, while, engaged in their hope
less steeple-chase after Mrs. Kemble,it would
take more bravery to pursue it than they
generally get credit for.
Mr. Morrow B. Lowry, of Erie, made a
characteristically indecent speech in the State
Senate last week. It was an attack upon the
judges of the Court of Common Pleas, of this
city, and particularly upon Judge• Allison and
the District Attorney. There were honest dif
ferences or opinion as to the exercise by the
judges of the right of remission of sentences,
a question that has been settled by the Su
preme Court; but there is no difference of
opinion in the community where they are
best known, as to the purity and uprightness
of the judges of the Court of Common Pleas.
Mr. Lowry's attack upon them was gross,
scandalous and indecent, and consequently in
keeping with the character of the man. Nor
did he hesitate to assert falsehoods for
the purpose of better enabling him to make
out a case against the officials whom he - was
slandering. Besides the injustice of thus as
sailing pure and upright men, there is a grave
responsibility attaching to the legislator who
either ignorantly or maliciously attempts to
lessen the hold of the judiciary upon the
respect and confidence of the community.
This course of conduct, particul'arly in any
question where Philadelphia 19 concerned, is
characteristic of the Senator from Erie; but we
confess to a feeling' of surprise and mortifica
tion to• see a spirited morning potempararY
siding with the Senatorial ranter in this at
tempt to throw dirt upon the character of
men who should stand ra3' above . the reach of
the bbafts of malice of such 14 reviler as NJ o; -
row B. Lowry.
THE DAILY EVENING BULLETIN PHILADELPHIA., MONDAY; MAROH 30 , 1868.
The vulgar_actiAg of one or two of the pm
formers in the Grande Duehesse,, which
made that pleasant and really harmleSs piece
of satire revolting to people of refinement,
appears to have taken new license in Offen
bach's opera of La Belle Helene, which has'
just been produced by the same company in
New York. Even the journals that praised
'Mme. ToWe in the Grande Duchene re
volt at the filthiness of La Belle Helene.
The new and excellent evening paper, called
Every Afternoon, concludes a notice of the
new opera as follows :
"The time has come, we beheve, when it is
the absolute duty of the press to speak as plainly
and as forcibly as it can against the shameless
.wickedness of the Filthy Drama. Indecent cos
tumes, lascivious gestures,foni innuendos,women
uttering words at which the galleries yell and
the boxes blush—what sort of thing is this for a
respectable theatre? We can understand how
there may be two opinions about the morality of
the ballet, but this is a very different affair. We
can understand how ladies and gentlemen should
sit through a performance of the Grand Duchesse
without observing the indecency which was hid
den under the language of certain parts of that
play; but the indecency of La Belle Rear there
is no attempt to conceal. It is essentially a dirty
piece, and no amount of paring or scraping will
make it, clean."
Such criticism shows the beginning of a
healthy reaction in the public taste, which
has lately tolerated a kind of indecency on the
stage that would have been forbidden by the
officers of the law in better times. The re
spectable drama and the refined and artistic
opera have almost been destroyed in New
York by the passion for the nearly nude bal
let and the vulgar opera boutle. It is to be
hoped that the gross outrages upon decency
offered in La Belle Helene, may be sufficient
to offend the public taste even in its present
degraded condition, and that thus good plays
and good operas may again have a chance of
raising their heads in the so•called metropolis.
The Abyssinian Elephant is growing in the
hands of great Britain. The costly expedi
tion sent out to punish King Theodore has,
thus far, accomplished nothing. The tele
grams concerning. General Napier's move
ments are provokingly short and unsatisfac
tory; but they reveal the fact that after great
delay, difficulty and trouble on account of
sickness, want of water and other supplies,
the British force has penetrated pretty far
into the kingdom of Abyssinia, but has had
no engagement with the ener9y. The latest
report is that they have at last come in front
of a position where King Theodore is strongly
entrenched, with an army represented to con
sist of 130,000 men. To attack these General
Napier has 6,000 men, many of whom are.
Buttering from dysentery and fever, while
forage is scarce and the roads are very bad.
Truly this is not a cheering prospect for Tier
Majesty's government. Her Majesty's sub
jects, too, will begin to think the cost of this
invasion of a remote and savage country, to
gether Vrithits sacrifice of thousands of lives,
is pretty dear to pay for the liberation of a
couple of adventurous Englishmen, who had
no business in Abyssinia, and who went
there with their lives in their hands.
Last week a bill, copied in another column,
was hurriedly passed through both houses of
the Legislature, and signed by the Governor,
which makes new discriminations in_favor of
the already favored - inhabitants of the rural
portions of Philadelphia. Senator Connell,
who has a late onstitmency in the rural
Wards, managed the bill, and through his
cleverness it was put through , without any
serious examination of it by the other mem-
bers. As the new assessment of city prop
erty had already made a sufficient discrimina
tion between the rural and the built-up por
tions of the city, it is to be regretted that Mr.
Cionnell's bill was not arrested in its passage,
so that its intent could have been examined.
Its effect will be to undo much of the good
aimed at by the new assessment, and to throw
an undue share of the taxation upon the built
up parts of the city.
It is authoritatively stated by the friends of
the Secretary of State, that in the event of
the removal of Mr.. Johnson by the High
Court of Impeachment, Mr. Seward will not
remain in the Cabinet. There once was a
gentleman named Sawney who refused to eat
his supper. Mr. Seward may have profited
by his example.

WASIIINi:TON, March 30th.—In the Senate, Mr.
Sherman to-day presented the report of the Con
ference Comniittee on the TeX Repeal
bill. it 1s substantially the same as before,
retaining the section allowing no draw
back unless first done. Also, the two-mill tax on
manufacturers' saki over five thousand dollars.
It changes the Whisky section sons to subject to a
forfeiture of the distillery and materials and a tine
of not over $5,000, and an hnprisonment of not
over three years. It punishes revenue officers
guilty of conniving at fraud in the same way.
An additional section is added forbidding com
promises except on the written permission of
the Secretary of the Treasury and Attorney
6eneral.
Considerable discussion ensued, and it became
evident that no vote could be reached to-day from
the opposition manifeAed, therefore Mr.
Sherman gave notice that he should move an
early adjournment of the Impeachment Court
to-day, in order to take up this bill with a view
to getting a vote.

Correction of an Error
WABiIOI4:ToN, Mardi 30.—1 n the report of the,
House proceedings of Saturday, as published
this morning, a great portion of the speech of
Mr. Williams, of Pennsylvania, in opposition to
the Alabama bill, appears as if delivered by Mr.
Bingham, of Ohio, in advocacy of the bill. Mr.
Bingham's speech was as fellows:
Ildr. Bingham addressed the louse in advocacy
of the bill, putting it on the statesman-like axiom,
that if you cannot get all you wish, you should
get all you can. lie thought, however, that
sufficient restriction had already been imposed
on the people of Alabama, and, therefore, he
was opposed to the third section. It was au
thorized neither by the laws nor the Constitution.
It was the right or the people to alter or amend
their Constitution, subject only to the Constitu
tion of the United States, and they could not be
deprived of that right. The American system
would be a total failure if the people could not
be trusted with the right. There was no color
able excuse for attempting to engraft such a pro
vision on the statute book.
What follows was properly Mr. Williams'
speech. It commences thus: "I cannot," he
said, "shut my eyes to the great fact that this
government was built by white men upon Ideas,
if net instincts, that were peculiar to the race—
that the predominating element is still the same,
and that there is no reason to expect that in the
long future it will ever put on any` other com
plexion," •ke. • •
Agaves ILawstilt-The Cost or ""Spark.
The Dansville (N. Y.) Express is responsible
for the following : One day last week a lawsuit
took place before Justice McCartney, the case in
point being Charles Ackly against O'Reara. The
action was brought, we understand, for me of
room, lights, fuel, meals, ttc., while defend
sat was "sparking" his Lucinda at plain
tiff's house. The prosecution showed that de
fendant was at the house from three to five
nights In a week, and ' usually stayed
until four o'clock in the morning, and
sometimes till after breakfast—that he
burned his lights and wood, and used his room,
sad naturally concluded, we take it, that as he
had all the fun to be derived from "sparking" at
such late hours, ho ought to pay for the privi
lege. The case was exceedingly amusin g,
, and,
of course, attracted a large crowd of the 'spark
ing" fraternity, who were interested pecuniarily
in the result of the action brought, as It might
set a precedence whereby they might be called
upon to "fork over" a liberal allowance for
lights and fuel, if for nothing else, and they felt
materially relieved, no doubt, when the Justice
rendered his verdict of "no cause for action."
Jam Urowinlow on Indians.
Capt. James Brownlow, the military son of
the "old man," In a letter to the Knoxville Whig
from California, says : "I think I have become
pretty well acquainted with that 'poor Indian'
generally known as `Lo.' I think if J. Fermi
more Cooper could spend two or three weeks
with me in the Sacramento Mountains, he would
cease-writing the life of 'Lo' M the shape of
, cheap novels, or if he could only see his 'lovely
Indian maid' wading into the entrails of a coyote
or a lizard as long as one's arm, and Winding up
with glandered horse-head for desert, he would
come to the conclusion that there was more
r hyena than romance in her nature.'-'

(Special Despatch to the Philadelphia Evening DillletklJ
WAsineerros, March 80.—The fourth day of
the Impeachment Trial opened similar to the pre
ceding ones. Tha Senate galleries were densely
crowded, a majority of those present being ladles.
The Senate assembled at 11 o'clock, and the case
of the Hon. Mr. Butler was taken up, and the
question was discussed some little time whether
he should be allowed to take his seat in the
House on taking the modified test-oath.
The Conference Committee on the Tax Repeal
made a report, and this consumed the time until
half-past twelve o'clock, when Mr. Wade vacated
the chair, and the Chief Justice called the
Im
peaehment Court to order.
The Board of Managers and the House then
entered, and the journal wae read. The
House assembled at noon, and the brief half hour
they were in session was consumed by the read
ing of the journal.

An Abstract of the Argument
Ilith Consress-necond Session.
WABLIMITON, March 50
Srisare—Tbe Senate reaseembled at II o'clock. The,
Cheplain asked a Hes sing nron the Senators, the Epee.
utive, the Miefeters a' State, the officers ant privet, of
the army, and all to who public Omits are committed.
or who have neremed respongbilities in reference to the
nation, especially in regard to the vest trial.
He prayed teat (lod would give grace to his servant
presiding over this high court, wisdom to those man luting
this important cline, and a spirit of Justice and righteous
nem to those with whom rests the tem..
Mr. Edmunds (Vt.) called up the bill to regulate appeals
to the Court of Claims, which was amended and poet
ported until tomorrow.
Mr. Trambull (Ill.) called up the bill pending en the
adjournment on Saturday, to relieve Roderick R But
ler. of 7 entirsree, from political disabilities.
7be gneetion wee on Mr. Bvekslew's amendment to
strike out the word constitution from the clause pm.
poring to relieve the disabilities impeded by the Connti
teflon and Reconstruction laws.
Mr. Buckalew (Pa ) resumed the floor. He argued that
the reconstruction laws having no application o Tennes
see, Mr. Butler could net properly be relieved from the
disabilities imposed by thorn. He quoted the testimony
taken in behalf of Mr. Butler, and discussed his record at
length, claiming that he had never rendered any actual
military service.
At ten ininutee part l 2 Mr. Buckalew gave way at the
srEgt stion of Mr. Sherman (Ohio), who presented the ra.
port of the Committee of. Conference on the bill to relieve
certain manufacturers from internal tax.
Hendricks (Intl) moved that the report be laid over.
and printed.
Mr. Sherman (Ohio) urged immediate action, saying
everything objectionable to the Senate had been stricken
out, and the bill, PO important to the ceinntry, would go
into effect on Wednesday next.
Several Senators opposed acting, on the report Immo.
dietely
Mr. Sherman consented to have it go over, giving no
tire Ma' he would press it tie early am possible.
Mr. Howe (Who explained that lie had only learned
this , morning that he had been appointed a member of the
committee, and having received no notice to attend its
me etinge, that Mr Howard had attended in stead.
Mr. Stewart (Nev.) said he had been notified to attend
and bed therefore signed the report.
Mr. Sherman said he,as chairman, had misapprehended
the announcement of the committee, and had therefore
notified Mr. Howard instead of Mr. Howe.
Mr. Hendricks' motion was modified eons to order the
printing simpl'e, and was .agreed to.
At 12.30 the President Pro tem vacated the chair, which
wee immediately taken by the Chief Justice.
The Sergeant-at-Arms made proclamation commanding
silence.
The PresidenVe cement entered and took their seats as
before, at 12-45. and the Hergeanbet-Arms ennonneed the
managers on the part of the House of Representatives,
who took their places, with the exception of Mr..Stevene,
who entered soon afterward and took a seat slightly
apart from the manager.' table.
-The House of Representative!' yrns then announced. and
the member! , appeared. heeded by Mr. Vs ashhume (Hi.),
on the crust of the Clerk of the hawse, end were seated.
The minutes of the last day of the trial were real, and
Mr. Butler commenced his opening at a quarter before one
o'clock.
Mr Butler opens his argument by "alluding to the
onerous duty that has fallen neon him, and the novelty
of the proceedings In which. for the first time in the his
tory of the v orld, has a nation brought before Be higheg
tritenal its Chief Executive for trial on charges of mit
ado fristration of the power! , and duties of his office. The
Constitution provides that the President, Vice President
and all civil ollieers shall be removed from office on im
peachment for and eenvictioreof treason, bribery, or other
high c Imes and minis meanors.
The House of Repreeentatives shall solely impeach, the
Senate only shall try, road in case of conviction, the Pule
ment shall alone he removal from office and disqualifien
tion for ollicmene or both. These mandatory proviaiens
came necessary to adopt a well-known procedere of the
mother country to the Institutions of the then infant
Republic. But a single incident only of the
business was left to conshnetion, and that concerns the
effneee or incapacities which are the ground work of
impeachment. This was wisely done, tIPCI4IISO human
foresight is inadequate and human intelligence fella in
the task of anticipating and pre viding for, by positive en-
R eims !ft, all the infinie graduations of human wrong
and sin by which the liberties of a people and the safety
of a nation may he endangered from the imbecility, con
ruption and unhallowed ambition of its rulers.
Ile then examines the question—What dye inaveachas
bee offence* tinder the provisions of our Constitution? He
states that lie will give the result to which he has art
rived, and at the close of his argument the anthoritlei
and discussions. both in this country and in Englandi
from which the Managers deduce their propordtion", pre,
pared by the Hem Wm. Lawrence (Ohio). member of the
Hoagie Judiciary Committee, in which he fully concurs
and stopte.
We define therefore an impeachable crime or minim
meaner to be one in its nature or consequences subversive
of Aonieftintlantental or essential ..nrinetple of own.

this may sanest of a vfolatitm of the Comsat/Honor law,
of, en oath,,- of duty, by on act committal. or omitted,
or without riolatnao a positive law, by the abuse o f discre,
flown, powers from improper motives, or for any ins:
proper purpose.
in examining this question Mr. Butler quotee Mr. Medi.
ROM Who,llll the firsts ongresa, when discussing the power
of the President to remove an officer, twee the following
words: "The danger consists mainly in this: that too
Preeidi nt can displace from office a man whose merits re
quire he should be continued In it. In the first place, he
will be impeached by the House for such an act of malad.
ministration. ter I contend the" the wanton removal of
molten - Imm officers would subject him to impeachment
and renewal frem his own high trust."
In considering the question. le this body now sitting to
dt‘termir e the accusation of the House of Representative.,
against the Preening, the Senate of the United States or
a Conn? he says. "We claim and respectfully insist that
ells Tribunal ties none of the attributes of a Judicial
Court, op they are commonly received and iinderstoods,
I Of course thIP question must determined by the

no word, an is well known to you, Senators, which riven
the elightest coloring to the idea that uhf. if, a

respondent the Chief Justice of the Supreme
Court must preside. But even this provision can have no

Senete of the United States when sitting on the trial of
all - ether officers. and a G nrt only when the President is
at the bar. solely because in this case the Coudttution has
dr signoted the Chief Justice as the presiding officer?
lie then states that the first eight articles set out in
several distinct forms. the tine of the respondent in re.
moving Mr. Stanton from etlice and appointing Mr Till.

for which and the intent a ith which either or both of the
„acts were dens d the legal duties and rights infringed
PM) the nag of Congress violated in en doing. Afton ape.
Cify inn there article sin detail. he es p. that in addition to
the proof already adduced, it will be shown that after
appointment of Thomas. the President caused a formal
notice to be served on the Secretary of the Treasury, to
the end that the Secretary might answer the requisitions
fir money of Thomas, and this woe only ti-OVPnt.iid by
the firmness with which Stamen retained possession of
the hooks and papers of the War Office,
It will he seen that every fact charred in Article 1 is
admitted by the answer of the respondent; the intent id
also admitted as charged; that it to say, to net aside
the civil tenure of office act, and to remove Mr. Stanton
(teen the office of the Secretary for the Department of
Warwithout the advice and content of the Ssnate, and,
if not justified, contrary to the provieions of the Conetis
tutlon itself. On this the respondent avers that by the
Conetiliition there is 'conferred ou the President, att
part of the Execiltive power, the power at any and all
times of removing from office all executive ()Moore for
cense. to be indeed of by the President alone. and that
beverilv believes that the Fxrective power of reinoval
from office, confided to him by the Constitution. includes
the pow er of einmenei n from %lice indefinitely."
The plain and hen-Sable lento before the Senate and
the anzerlren people ie—Has the President, under tile
Conetitet ion, the wore than kingly prerogative at will to
remove from office and suspend from office, indefinitely,
all executive officers of. the United States, either civil,
military or naval, at any and all. times, and fill the

The Famine in Algeria.
An Incident (says the Courner de l'Al9erie)
took place lately at the market of Affreville, near
lillianah, which might have been attended with
deplorable results. A great number of Arabs,
supposed to be as many as 1,000, all at once
made their appearance there, ostensibly for the
purpose of buying. They were ragged in their
attire, but each man carried under his burnous a
matrak (a species of large knife). They soon
crowded all the avenues of the market, the
only representatives of European authority
and public force on the spot being
the ' deputy-mayor, the garde-champetre,
and two gendarmes. About 10 in the Morn
ing, when business was at its height, the Arabs,
acting like one man, suddenly precipitated them
selves on the stalls of persons selling articles of
food, and in an Incredibly short space of time
bread, meat, vegetables, fruit, and grain disap
peared before this famished hOrdo. European
dealers took to flight, while those of the Arab and
Jewish races manfully defended their property as
best they could, using their tent-poles, and resist
ing the assailants bravely. The deputy-mayor
and the few men at his disposal aided the dealers,
and at length succeeded in quelling the disturb
ance, and even made some arrests. The band of
strange Arabs disappeared as suddenly as they
bad come, and avoided doing anything more than
seizing on articles to eat.
