THE IM PEA C M ENT T TRIAL. CoNirittey I froth the Third I' or hen en' parte Garland was decided, the country- was ' just unseeing from a tentliet of arms, the mile:tens and e , :ettemenv of which had found their way upon the bench. and eon e of the judem, just coming from other aervico of the, Government tied from the bar, brought with them *pinions. But Fir:cheer" l' am treading. on dangere.lB Atoned. Time Las not yet laid its softening and correct. - toe bend longer:lough ripen Ole derision to allow me fur• :her to comment upon it in this presence. Mr. President and denatoln, Can it bo said tint the pos. eible doubts throng on three or four acts of Congress ate to tictroonetitutionality during a judicial experience of eeventyffive one to a generation is a suffi cient warrant to the President of the United inlays to set ,'side that violate an t ha t theone whatever upon the plea Olathe believed Supreme Court would held tt unconstitutional when n cue, involving the question 0111011 id come before it and eeperially - one much discussed on its Pessaga to which the whole mind of the country *wail turned during the oroirrees of the disetieston. upon which he had argued with all hir power hie coestitution al objections, and nt Melt after careful reconatderation„ had been Tamed over his veto? Indeed, will you hear an argument as a Senate of the United States, a majority - of whom voted for that very bill, upon its constinit toe bitty In the trial of an executive tollicer for wiif ally violating it beforeit had been doubted by any court ? Bearing upon this question, however. it may be said that the Proident re roved Mr. etareon for the very pur pose of testing the constitutionality of !hie law before tho (Nauru. and the (peahen is asked, will you condemn him as fora crime for so doing? if this pies were a true one, it outfit not to avail; but it is a subterfuge. We will ',how you that he has taken no step to submit the quo. lion to any court. -,lthough more than a year has elapsed since the paw ge of the act. • (lathe contrary, t President has recognized its valid ity and acted upon it in every department of the Govern ment. save iu the War Department, and there. except in regard to the head thereof solely. We shall show y he forig ago canoed all the forms of commissions and official bonds of all the civil officers of the Government to be - altered to conies in to its requirement. Indeed, the fact *will not be denied—nay.i 3m in the very case of Mt. Stanton he euepended under its provisions, anti asked this very Senate, before whom he as neer ' being tried for its violation, to pass :upon the , sufficiency of hie moms for acting under it in eo doing according to, its terms ; yet, rendered , rect ifies and MOO by the patience of Congress under hie usur. patione of otherpowers, and his disregard of other Item, tie boldly avows in his letter to tko General of the army that he intendp to dle,egard its provisions, and summons the commander -of .the troops of this department to ate duce him trent his duty se as to bo able to eon mend. in vielatiordeof another act of Congress. sufficient military rower to:enforce his unwarrantable decrees. The Preelidebt knew, or ought to have known; hie offfi alai advitier, who now' appears: as Ins counsel, could, and 01 , d tell him, doubtless, that ho alone,as Attorney General, could Maai: information in the nature of a quo warrants to determine this question of the validity of the law. Mr. Stanton, if ejected from office, was without rem°. because' a *cries of decisions has Batted the law to be that, an ejected -office• cannot reinstate himself, either by tearranto,mtendamus,or other appropriate remedy, an the courts. If the President had really desired solely to teat the c , meUtutie milli) of the law, or his legal right to remove Mr. Stanton, instead of his defiant menage to the Senate on theitat of February, informing them of the romp cal, but not suggesting this purpose. which is thus shown to be an afterthought, he would have said in substance: 'Den. Demirel of the senate, in order to test the constitutionality of the law entitled 'Areact regulating the tenure of cer tain civil offices,' which I verily believe to be unconstitit:' Venal end void. I Le , o issued an order of removal of E. td. Stanton from the office of Secretary of the impart. meat of War. I felt myself constrained to make this re moval lot Mr. btenton should answer the information to the nature of a quo warrant% which I intend the Atter. ney•General than file at an each' day. by saying that he trot& tine office of Sore terry of War by the appointment and authority et Mr. Lincoln, which has never been re voked.. At:aloes that there shall be no collision or disa greement between the several departments of .he Govern. anent and the Execm tat , 1 Jay before the Senate this mem. sage, that the rea.ons for my aeti .n, as well as the a :thin dtaelf for the turpose indicated, may meet your concur renee.” itad the Senate received such a message, the represen tativea of the people might never have.deemod it notes. nary to in peach the Preeident for such an . cr,to insure the Natty of too country, even if they had denied the accu racy of the legal positions. On the contrary, be issued a letter of removal, per captory in form, intended to be co in effect, order ing en officer of the army. Lorenzo Thomas to take pas...mice of the office and eject the Incumbent, which he claimed he would do by force, even et the risk of inaugurating insurrection, civil commotion and War. Whatever may be the decision of the legal question in volved when the case comes before the final judicial tri. bunaL .who shall say that such conduct of the Executive, under the eiremnstaucea, and in the light of the history of current events and his concomitant action, is not in Andrew Johnson a bitch crime and misdemeanor? !m -=glue if it were possible, the consequence of a decision by the Senate in tui negative—a verdict of not guilty upon this proposition A law is deliberately passed kith all the form of lees. fatty° promdui e; is presented to the President for his signature- it is returned by him to Congress with his ob. 3i:otter's ;is thereupon reconsidered, and by a yea and nay vote Of three quarters of the Representatives of the peoplein the popular branch, and three-fourths of toe Sometime representing the dfates in the higher branch, is passed again, notwiths rand ng the veto; -is acquiesced in iby the President—by all the departments of the Govern ment conforming thereto for quite a year, no court having doubted its validity. New, its provisions are wilfully and designedly violated kri the President, with intent to temp to himself the very power! which the law was designed to Limit, for the pur pose of displacing a meritorious °facer whom the Senate Wt briers bad determined ought not and should not be removed; for which high-handed act the President is im. Teethed in the name of attic people of the United dtatee„ by three fourthe of the House of Representatives, and presented at the bar of the Senate, and by the same Senate that passed the law; nay, more.,by the very Sena tore who, when the proceeding came to their knowledge, after a deliberation of many hours, solemnly declared the act unlan ful and in violation of the Conattution; yet that act of usurpation b declared not to be a high misde meanor in office by their solemn verdict of not guilty upon their oaths. Would not ouch a judgment be a conscious selfabnega lion of the inielligent capacity of the representatives of thetextile in 'enigma a PeeM bled to frame laws for the! , guidance in accordance with the principles and terms of their Conatitution and frame of government? Would it net be a nrtiScation—an invitation rather— etaxding to all time to any bold, had, aspiring man, to seize the liberties of the people which they had shown themselves ii capable of maintaining or defending. and, playing the role of a Caesar or Napoleon here. to establish s deepothimmtute this the last and greatest experiment of freedom and equality of right in the people, following the long Woof burled republiea,would auk to its tomb under the blows of usurped newer, from which free represents. live government shall arise to the light of a morn of re. etutection nevermore forever ! Article abate charg , s that Major General Emory being in columned of the le ilitary Deuartment of Washington, the President - celled him before hini, and instructed him that the act of march 2. 1867, ss bleb provides that all or ders from the Preeident shall be issued through the General of the army.. was unconstitutional and (neon eisteht with his commierdou, with intent to induce Emory to take orders (greedy froni himself, and thus hinder rho execution of the civil tenure act, and to prevent Ms. Stanton from holding his office of Secretary of War. If the transaction set forthin this article stood alone we might well admit that doubts might arise as to the suf. ficien . cy of the proof. But the surroundings are so pointed and erg,niticaut es to leave no doubt In the mind of an ism partial man as re the interests and purposes of the Presi dent. No one would say that the President might not - properly send to the col/inlander of this department to mike inquiry as to the disposition of his forces, but the question is, with what intent and purpose did the Pres!. dent send for Genes al Emory at the time he did Y Time titre is an important element of the act. Congress had peed an act in March. 1867, restraining the Fred dent from issuing military eiders save through the General of the army. The President had protested against that act. On the 12th of August he had at tempted to get POOPPI34OII of the War Unice by 'the re. /naval of the ineun.btrat, but could only do so by ap. pointing the General of the army thereto. Failing In Lis attempt to get fell posses..lon of the office through the Senate, he uad determined, as ho admits, to remove Stanton at ell hazards, and endeavored to prevail on the General to aid him in HO doing, He de clines. For that, the respondent quarr.ls with him, de trounces him in the uevespape. s, and accuses him of bad faith anduntruthf eines*. Thereupon. asserting his pre rogatives as commander herb ief, he creates a Lew mili tary department of the Atlantic. He attempts to bribe Lieutenent.Gener al r benzin to take command of It by promotion to the rank of General by brevet, trusting that his military services would compel the Senate to coutirm . If the respondent can get a General by brevet appointed. he can then, by simple o. der. put hire on duty according to his brevet rank, and thus have a General. of Alto army in command at Washington, through whom he can trans. /nit his orders and comply with the act which be did not dere transfuses., an he had approved it, and get rid of the hated General Grant. Sherman spurned the bribe. The reepocident. not discouraged. appolutod Maior•General George IL 'Thomas to the Beare brevet rank, but Thomas declined. • %bat stimulated the ardor of the President just at that time, almost three years atter the war closed, but just after the ele.Late had to instated Stanton, to reward mili tary et rvice by the appointment of generals by brevet? Why did his zeal of promotion take that form and no other? There were many other meritorious °Means of lower rank desirous of promotion. the purpose is evident to every tlut.king mind. He had determined to set aside Grant, with whom he had quarrelled, either . by. force or fraud, either in conformity with chin spite of the act of Con• *Orand coetrol tiro military power of the country. On bit of February (for all these events cluster nearly about the same point of time) he appoints Lorenzo Thomas Secretary of War and orders Stanton out of office; Stanton referes to go; Thomas le about the streets declaring that he will put him out by force--"kick him out"—'lie has c smart his master's' word. VD t se evenine,of the list a resolution looking to hn peaehenent is offered In the House. The Preddent, on the nun nine of the 22d, "as early as practicable." is seized with a sudden desire to know how many troops, there were In Washington. What for, just then? Was that all ho wanted to know? If so, his AdjutentGeneral could have given him the official morn ing report, which would have shown the condition and etetien of every man, nut that wee not aIL Ile directs the candor o the department to come as ear.y aa practi cable. Why tide caste to learn the number of troops 1' ()beery, the order does not go theme) Gen. Grant as by law it ought to have doum General emory,not knowing hat is wanted. of course obeyed the order as soon sta pew , ethic-. 7 he President asked him if he remembered the conversation which he had with him when he drat look commend of the departures/toss to the strength of the, garrison at Washington. and the general Mopes Gen of emote In the department. Emory replied that "he did dfreirmtly;" that was last September. Theo, after explaining to 61m fully as to all the changes, the President staked -tor recent changes of boom. Emory denied they could have been Suede with. out the older soing through him, and then, with soldierly frankeere (as he evideutty suspected what the President was after), said by law no order could come to him save through the General of the army. and that had been ap, proved by the President, and p. oraulgated in gene. rat order No. 17. The President wished to see it. It was produced. General s mory say& "Mr. President. I will take it as a great favor if you will permit me to call your attention to this order or act." Why a favor to Emory? Because he feared that be was to be called upon by the President to 4 s o something in contravention of that law. The . Prod. dent read head eald, "Thhs is not la accordance with the Cone titution of the United Ststes, which' makes me Coin. mosseerdn.thief of the army and no, y, or with the lam gunge of /out commiselon." Emory then said, "That is nota sniffer for the °Meets to determine. T..ere was the order t to its, &Pero , . ed by him, and we were all go. yeivod dry order.' Head "Ain Ito understand , then , that the President of the Up States cannot give an melee but through General rant." Gen. Emory then made the President a shed speech, telling him that the officers of the army bad been consultle g lawyers on the subject, Reverdy Joh a4OO and Robert J. Walker, and were advised they woro bound to obey that order. Said he, "1 thank it nicht to tell you the army aro a unit On thin subject." After a short 1 , 1111F4% "seeing there was nothing , more to arty:. Guars Fruory loft. What made alt the officers convrit lawyers about obeying a low Of the 'Steil States? What intl. mice had been at work with thorn? The course of the Pr. sldent.

How could •General Emo y tell that In the Judgment of the President that .limnhadnotcome.and hence.wae- anxious to assure tho Pr, Adept that ho could not oppose the law? in his answer to the first at tido he Berens that ho had fully cone to tho conclusion to remove Mr. Stanton at all events, notwith4anding the law and the action of the Senate; in other words, he intendod to make and did nlekr, ex, entire resistance to the law duly *matted. The consequence,' of such resistance he him" told us in his MOS. sage: C C. 4Y 4 • \V here'an act has been pasted according to the forme of the Constitution by the supremo legislative authority, and ie regularly mu ollt d among the public stat•ttes of the country, Executive resistance to it, especially in thus of high tnr y incitement, would be likely to prod lee violent collision bets', stn the respective adherent* of the two branches of the Government. This would be simply civil n ar and civil war must be resorted to only u the last rs • medy berths, worst evils. • • * • • • It is true that came may occur in which tho Executive would he compelled to stand on his rights, and maintain them, regardless of all consequences. • • • • Ile admits, in substance, that lie told Emory that the law was Vl holly unconstitutional, and. in effect took a vay all hi. power se oinctionder-im Chief. Was it net just Suet' a law as he had declared h. we Wei resist? De you not believe that if General Emory had yielded in the least to lie suggestions the President would have offered him pre motion to and hint to his purposes, as he did Sherman and '1 homes? I raj remember that this Is not the case of ono gentle man conversing with another on moot questions of I.tw; but it is the President, the Commandenin-chief "the fountain of all honor and the source of all power" in the eye of a military officer, teaching that officer to disobey a law which he himself has determined is void, with tie power to promote that officer if he finds him an apt pupil. Is it not :thigh misdemeanor for the President to assume to instinct the officers of the army that the laws of Con. gress are not to be obeyed? Article 18 alleges thatintendiag to sot aside the rightful authority and powers e f Congress, and to bring into dis grace and contempt the Congr.ss of the United States, anti to destroy confidence in and to excite 011111 M against Congress and its laws, he, Andrew Jobnson„ President of the United States. made divers speeches set sat therein. whereby he brought the office of President into contempt. ridicul- and disgrace. To sustain these charges there will be put in evidence tho ahort-hand notes of the reporters in each instance who took these speeches, or examined the sworn copies thereof, and in one instance where the speech was exam. ined and corrected by the private secretary of the Presi dent himself. To the charges of this article the respondent answers that a convention of delegates (whom, he does not say) sat In Philadelphia for certain political purposes mentimed, and appointed a committee to wait upon the respondent, as Preeldent of the United States ;th they were received, and their chairman, lion. Ileverdy Johnson, then and now a ' , elicitor of the United States, addressed the reapom d eet in a speech, a copy of which the respondent believes is from a substantially correct-report, is made u part of the answer; that the respondent made a reply to the ad dreee of the committee. While, however, he gives us iu his answer a copy of the speech made to him by Mr. Rev erey Johnson, taken from a newt paper, he wholly omits to give us set authorized version of his own speech, about !ich he may be supposed to know quite as much, and thus save us sehte testimony.g lie does not admit that the extracts from his speech In the article are correct,nor does he deny that they are so. in rewind to the speech at Cleveland, he again does not admit that the extracts correctly or Maly present his eptech; but again, he does not deny that it do as so far as the erne he act out. As to the speech et St. Louis, he does not deny that he made it; says only that he does not admit it, and rAutree, in retch case, that the whole speech shall be proved. In that case, I be. leave to assure him and the Senate that his vs lams shall be gratified in their fullest fraction. The Semite shall see the performance, so far as is in the power to Ittelogi aph the scene by evidence, en all those occa 41011P. and shall hear every materiel word that he said. ilis dt fent e. however, to the at time is th at "be felt him eelf in duty hound to expro.s opinions of and concerning the public character, conduct, viesvo, purposes motives, and tendencies of all men engaged in the public service, as Is ell in Congress as otherwise," "and that for enythtng he may have said on either of thee- occa•ione he is justi fied tinder the constitutionel right of freedom of opinion and freedom of epoeth, and is net subject to greater in• quisition, impeachment, or inculpation in any manner or he us w hattioever." lie denies, however, that by reason of any matter in veld ariele or its specification alleged he Lee Sint or done anything indecent or unbecoming in the (Alb f Magistrate of the United States, or tending to bring hi:. high ofitea into contempt, ridicule, or disgrace. 'llie iseue , then, finally. is this: That those utterances of his, in the manner and form in which they are alleged to have been made, andunder the circumstances and at the time they were made, ate decent and becoming the ' President of the United etates, and do not tend to bring the office into ridicule and dlegrace e accept the issues. They are two: Firvit-1 list he has the right to gay what he did of Con gress in the exe. Glee of freedom of speech; and. second, that or hat he die say in those speeches was a highly gen tlemanlike and proper performance in a citizen, and still more becoming in e President of the United otates. Let us first consider the graver matter of the assertion of the right to cast contumely upon Compress; to de nounce it as a "body hanging on the verge of the Govern nit tt;" 'pretending to be a Congress wilen in fact it was mint a Congress;" "a Congraea pretending to be for the Ilion when its every step and act tended to perpetuate disunion, and make a disruption of tho States inevita ble:" "a Congress In a minority assuming to exercise power whichot allowed to be consummated, would re sult in despotism and monarchy itself," . Congress a Inch had done everything to prevent the union of the States:" "a Congress factious and domineering ;" "a Radical Congress, which gave oriel° to another rebel lion;" "a Congress upon whose skirts was every drop of blood that was shed In the New Orleans riots." You will find theeo denunciations had a deeper mean ing than mere expressions of opinion. It may be taken at en axiom in the alibi, s of nations that no usurper has ever eeizsd upon the Legislature of his country until ho has famillaaized the people with the _possibility of so di log by vituperating and decrying it. Denunciatory at tack's upon the Legislature have always pale ded. slan derous abuse of the individuals composing it has al WaYll nes °lnputted a seizure lay a despot of the legislative prove' of a county. Two memorable examples in modern history will spring to the recollection of every man. Before cromwell drove out by the bayonet the Parliament of England, he and his partisans had denounced it, derided it, decried it, and defamed it, and thus brought it into rdicule and con tempt. lie vilified it with the came name, which, it is a lieulficant fact, the partisans of Johnson, by a concerted cry, applied to the Congress of tne United State. when he commenced his memorable• pilgrimage and crusade against it. It is a still more significant fact that the j esti beation made by Cromwe 1 aid by Johnson for setting aside the authority of Parliament and Congress, reapec tiv ely, was precisely the same, to wit: thst th ey were elected by part of the people only. N'S hen Cromwell. by his holdiers, finally entered the hull of l'arliainent to disperse its members. he attempted to cover the enormity of his usurpation by denouncing this men pet venally as a libertine, that as a drunkard another as a betrayer of the liberties of the people. Johnson started out on t recisely the earno course, but, forgetting the parallel too early, he proclaims this patriot an ass as. Fin ; teat stateeman a traitor; threatens to hang that man ahem the people delight to honor, and breathes out "threateninge and slaughter" against this man whose cervices in toe cause of human freedom nave made his name a household word wherever the language is spoken. ' here ix, however, an appreciable difference between Cromwell and Johnson, and there is a like differeuee in the rehulto accon.plisheo by each. W. hen Bonaparte extinguished the Legislature of France. he waited until through his press and lila par. tisane, and by his own denunciations, ho brought its au. tholity into disgrace and contempt; and when tinnily, he drove the council of the nation from their chamber. like CD MU ell. be justified hitneelf by patented abuse of the budividuels themselves as they pas ed by hint That the attempt of Andrew Johnson to overthrow Congrere has I ailed, is because of the want of ability and power, not of malignity and will. e are too apt to overlook the danger that may come from words. "We two inclined to say that is only talk—wait till some act is done, and then it will be time to move. But words im.y be. and sometimes are, things—living, burning things th,kt set a Is odd on lire." As a most notable instance of the power of words, look et the inception of the reheLlien through which we have it 4;40 , 0. Fora quarter of a century the nation took Ito notice of the talk of dlst.nion and secession which was beard in Congress and on the "stump," until in the South a generation was taught them by word, and the a old suddenly. %burst forth into terrible; awful. ,r. Deed any one doubt„ that if "JaCkson lnd tumuli Calhoun in 1832 for talking nullification and efeceasion, which woo embryo treason, the cannon of booth Carmine against tort tyumter would never have been heard, with all their fearful and deadly conse qu nee-Y Nay, more ;if the United States officers, della, tors and llepreoenta ivee had been Impeached or die qualified from office in 1822 for advocating secession on the "stump," as was done in 1882 by Congress. then out tons and brothers, now dead in battle, or starred in prh sun hod been alive and happy, and a peacefui solution of the question of olavery had been found. Does any one doubt that if the intentions of the respond ent could have been carried out, and his denunciations had weakened the Congress in the affections of tho pee. Fla so that those who had in the North sympathized with the rebellion could have elected such a minority even of the representatives to Congress as, together with those sent up front the governments organized by Johnson in the rebellious, states, should have formed majority of both or either house of Congress, that the President would have recognized ouch body as the legitimate Congress, and attempted to carry out its decrees by the aid of the army and navy aid the Treasury of the United States, over a filch he now claims such unheard-of and 11- Suitable powers, and thus lighted the torch of civil wart In all earnestness, Senators, I call each one of you upon 1116 conscience to say whether be.does not believe, by such preponderance of evidence drawn from the acts of the rranondrut since he has been in oilier. that If the people had not been, as they ever have been, true and loyal te their Coverers and themselves, such would not have been the result of these usurpations of power in the Emeutive? Is it, indeed, to be seriously argued here that there is a constitutional right in the Preeldent,of the United litotes, who, during his Whole' life can never lay aside his of fi cial charade', to denounce, malign, abuse, ridicule and con teinn, openly and publicly, the Congress of the United Btatee—pi co-ordinate branch of the Government? • It cachet fail to be observed that the President (shall I dare to Bay his counsel, or aro they compelled by the exi gencies of their defame?) have deceived themselves as to the gravamen of the charge In this article. It does not raise the question of freedom of epefich,. but of propriety and decency of eporch and conduct In a high officer of the Grovel nmcnt.

If you wilt take up the riot at New , Orleans, and trace it bnc,k to its source, of to its immediate cause, you will find out who was responsible for the blood that teal abed there. "If you take up the riot at New Orleans, and take it ' bock to the Radical Congress—" Thin as we might expect was received by the mob. composed. doubtless, in large part of unrepentant rehab, with great cheering and cries of "Bully." It was "bully" for them to learn on toe authority at the President of the United States that they might shoot down Union men and patriots and lay the /in of the murder upon the Con. grees of the United States! And this wee another hit of opiniom which the counsel say it NS - Be the high duty of the Pre•ldent to express upon the Justice, the worthiness, objects, "purposes. ana public political motives and ten. denciea of the legislation of your Congress." After some further debate wi:h the mob, some one. it seems, had balled "Traitor." '1 he President of the United States, on this fitting, con. atitulional occasion, immediately took this as' personal, and replies to it, "Now, my countrymen, it is very easy to indulge in epithets; it is very easy to call a man Judas, and cry out traitor • but when hate called upon to give arguments and facts he is very often found want leg." What were the the "facts that were found wanting," which in the mind of the President prevented him from leeks a Judas Iscariot? We shall state the wanting facts in his own language on this occasion. when he is exerci hi+ his hish coned ational prerogative: "Judas Iscariot! Judas ! There was a Judas once— one of the twelve Apostles. lib, yes ! the twelve Apo ties had a ( lutist [A voice—'and a Aloses teo'—great laughter.] The twelve Apostles had a Christ, and he never could have had a Judas unless he had had the twave Apostles. of I have I laved the Juds s who has been ray Christ that I have plated the Judas with? Was it Thad Steven.? Was it `Pendell Phillips Y Was it Cha , les Sumner?" 11 it were not that the blasphemy sheet a JFI, we should gather from all this that it dwelt in the mmd of the Presh dent of tlte United Mtatea that the only reason why he was not a Judas was that he bad not boon able to find a Christ towards whom to play the.ludas. it would appear that this "opinion," given in pursuance at his constitutional obligation, was received with cheers and hisses. Whether the cheers were that certain paid. otic persons named by him might be hanged, or the hiss ing was because of the inability of the President to play the part of Judas, for the ruasona before stated, I um sorry to say the evidence will not inform us. Ills answer makes the President say that i .1s hie "duty to express opinions cot cerning the public characters, and the conduct, views, purposes, objects, motives, and ten dencies of all men engaged in the public service."

V. bat answer have you when an intelligent foreigner nays: "....00lt: neel this is the culmination of the ballot um reitirdned in the hands of a free peeple in a country where any man may aspire to the office of President. Is not our government of a hereditary king or emperor a better one. where at least our sovereign is norn a gentleman, than to have such a. thing as this for a ruler?" Yes, we have an anawer. We can eay that this man woe not the choice of the people for the President of the United States.

To sustain this (tarp., proof will be given of his denial of the authority of Congress, as charged; also, his letter to the Gemmel of the army, In which lie admits that he endeavored to prevail on him, by promises of pardon and indemnity, to disobey the require. meats of the tenure-of-office act, and to hold the Oboe of Secretary of War against Mr. Stanton after he had been reinstated by the Senate; that he chided the General for not seceding to the request, declaring that had he known that ho (Grant) would not have acceded to his w lathes, his Rdmisaions in ilia answer would have taken other means to 'prevent Mr. Stanton the ant the suspension of Mr. f th ro a m t bie men putT min o g ee h w is ,s ofi ft i o o n e!

The.words aro not slisgeo to be either false or defama tory. because it is not within the powersof any man, hes er high his official position, in effect to slander the citi zens of the United States. in the ordinary sense of tnut word, so as to call on Uougresa to answer to tho truth of the accuoition. We do not go in therefore, to any quo.. flea of truth or falsity. Worcsa upon the scandal of the seeno.We would as soon think in tho trial of an indictment against a tem:lament as a common tumid, of summoning witnesses to prove th it what she said was not true. It Is this noise and disturbance in the neighborhood that is the offence,and not a question of the provocation or irritation which causes the outbreak. At the risk of being almost offensivo,but protesting that if so it was not my fa ult,but that of the person whose acts isni describing, lot me but fatuity picture to you the scene at Cleveland and St. Louis. It is evening; the President of the United States, on n journey to do homage at the tomb of nu illustrious states nom, eccompaided by the heads of the army and env." and ecretary of State, has arrived in the giant central city of the continent. lie has been welcomed b. civic authorities. lie has been escorted by a procession of the v, lent charitable societies, and citizens ant sobliers, to his hotel. lie has ret u rned thanks in answer to the address of the mayor to the citizens who have received hire. 'I he hospitality of the city Tins provided a Mum° 1 for him and his suite, when his ie again expected to ad. dress the chosen mete of the city. where nil things may be tonducten in decency and in eider. Wentz he was resting, as ono would have supposed ho would have to do. from the fatigues of the day, a noisy es owd of men and boys, %milted and unwashed, drunk and sober. black and whits, tuisembled in the street. who made night I Woes by their bawling; quitting the draw ing.room without the advice of hi, frisnde. the President of the United Staten rushed mirth onto the balcony of tho hotel to address what proves to have been a moo. and this he calls in his answer a'"fit occaelon"\on which ho has hold to the high dpty of expressing opinions of and con. ruing the legislation of Congress, proposed or cont. pleted. in respect of its wisdom. expediency, justice. worthiness, °ejecta, purposes, and public and political motives nod tendencies. Observe now, upon this Sit occasion, like in all respects to that at Cleveland, when the President is called 'won by the eonntitt Hotta requirements of his Wilco to explain the evident' e, expediency, Justice, worthiness. objects. purposes and tendencies of the acts of Congress," what ho says, atd the manner in which he says it. !toes ho speak with the gravity of a Marshall when expounding consti tutional law? Does he use tne polished sentences of a Wirt? Or. failing in these; which m Ay be his misfortuue, does he in plain, homely words oi truth and soberness, endeavor to instruct the men and youth before him in their duty t obey the laws and to reverence their rulers, and to prize their inetitations of government? Although ho may have been mistaken in the aptness of the occasion for suck di dactic instructions, still good teaching is never thrown away. lie shows, however, by his language, as he had shown at Cl. veland, that he had meant to adapt himself to the occasion. He has baldly opened hie mouth, an we shall show you. when some one in the crowd cries, "Bois about our British subjects? The Chief Executive, supported by his Secretary of State, so that all the foreign relations and diplomatic ser vices were fully represented, with a dignity that not oven hie counsel can appreciate, and with an amenity which must have delighted Downing street, answers: 'sWe, will attend to John Bull after &wit - no e s° far , as that eon‘ cerned." Tht mob, ungrateful, receive this bit of expres sion of opinion upon the justice, worthiness, objects, put. times and public and political motives and tendencies of our relations at ith the kingclunt of Ureat Britain, as they fell from the honored lips of the Preside', tof the United States, with laughter, and the more unthinking with chews. Having thus disposed of our diplomatic relations with the first naval and touthwrcial nation on earth, the Pre sident next proceeds to Instruct in the manner aforesaid and for the purposes aforesaid this Imlay mob, on the subject of the riot,,hron which his aniwer mays: "It is the err stitutional duty of the President to express opinion for the tuposes aforesaid." A voice calls out "Now Orleans! go on!"Atter a graceful exordium, the President ex pressen hits high opinion that a massacre. wherein 111 , ‘ pa , dolma and unparcened rebel insecirtes and frinirds deliberately shot down and murdered imarnred Unidn nun without provceation—even Ile , on, the mi sister of the living trod, as his hands were raised to the Princ. , of Peace, praying in the language of the Great Martyr.

Ido not propose to comment thither on this article, because tf the St nate shall have decided that all the acts charged in the pi ucedinit articles are Jo-tilled by law, then so largo part of the intent and purpose. is ith which o respondent is charged in this article would fail of proof, that it would be difficult to say whether ho might not, with eft , as irn, unity, ',gotta° the laws 11001{90 as the recent atruction acts, which in his message he declares ' as ',minty unconstitutional as any that cantle inaugurated." if that pest, why should he not violate than? if, there fore. thejudgment ot the Senate shall manila us upon upon the other at titles, no thuil take Judgment upon this by tonfessiom as the respondent declares in the acme mettotge that he does trot futeud to execute them. o the bar of t h n high tribunal invested wilt all it. gn nt i•ov ors and duties, the Mouse of neoreaentativant bus brought the l'residvid of the hutted States by the most toleu,u form of accusation, charging him with high unmes and mitdemeanois lq office, as set tout in the several laticks iihdch I have ens feebly P resented Cr) your attention. how, it seeing necessary tlint 1 alt 'old briefly touch upon and bring freshly to your ruiners'. brume the history of some f the ev- tits of his Marini,- I Nation of affairs in high t flice. tu order that the in'onts oMr sr bleb and the purposes for which the respondent corenatted the acts alleged against him may be folly un derstood. tr,on the first reading of the articles of imposchmenL tine question might have art-en in the mind of some bceator, wily are these acts of the President only pre sented t y the house, when history Intones us that others equally dsngerous to the liberties of the people, if not n,re so; and others of equal usurpation of powers, if not gat:stet, are passed aY silence? 10 such possible inquiry we reply that the acts sot oat in the S st eight 'ankles are but the culmination of a settee of wiongs, smalfeasancts and usurpation cow milled by the retpoudent, and therefore need to be exit mita d W the light of his precedent and concomitant acts to gra.p thel scope and design.
