    .11 In the silence of tbis lonely eve,
With the street lamp pale illekering on•the
wall,
An engel were to wbisper nic—"Belleve—
It shall. be given thee. Call !"—whom slionld
call?
•
And then I were to see thee gilding in,
Clad in known garments, that with empty fold
Lie in my keeping, and my fingers, thin
As thine were once, to feel in thy safe hold:
'should fall weeping on thy neck and say,
"I have so suffered since since"--but my
tears
Would stop, remembering how thou connt'st thy
day,
A day that is with God a thousand years.
Then what are these end days, months, years of
mine,
To thine eternity of full delight?
What my whole life, when myriad lives
May wait, each leading to a higher height?
I lose myself—l faint. Beloved, best.
Let me still dream thy dear humanity
gilts with me here, my head upon thy breast
And then I will go_ back to heaven with thee.
d►iNorwood,,, Ucnry Ward Beecher's
Romance.*
We turn the final pages of this romance—the
last of the five hundred and fifty pages that are
bound between the advertisement-sheet of
the Ledger, and the effusive letter of compliments
that is passed from the clergyman to Mr. Bob
Bonner. And, if confession is really good for
the soul, we may as well confess the prevailing
thought that remains in our mind after the
perusal: this reflection is, that it must be such
an odd thing to be a Beecher!
To be brought up from Infancy among the
things of the Temple, until the mysteries of the
Holy of Holies become as familiar as are the can
vas altars and groves and the jewels of the prop
erty-room to an actor—and as much a matter of
daily business and sustenance as were the meat
offerings to the sons of Eli; to retail at table for
one's very jokes the • little satires or em
barrassments of the confessional, and the
vagaries of awkward piety; to partake among
one's 610415 and brothers the feeling that
QM is behind the curtain of a scene of 'public
'effect that is not without its farcical incidents,
stud that, in the language of the French proverb,
deuce auguree non jantaie pu se regarder sans rice;
to bandy with easy lips the tremendous words
that are at the centre of our mythology—to theo
rize fluently upon "predestination," that tre
mendous ananke which shook the savage Cot
ton Mather to tbe soul oven while he ser
monized upon it; to use the names of Deity
in stories, in jests and in affairs, as we use the
terms of the counting-house; to trifle every hour
with such a word as "grace," that celestial thing;
that lost dove froth Paradise, that wandered out
of our atmosphere for four thousand years, until
it rested its wings of healing on the Cross; to
menthe and digest with our daily bread these
fatal ideas which used to pale the cheeks and still
the lips of Edwards, of Emmons, and of Hopkins;
to face the idea of perdition without a chill, and
that of redemption without a tear ; - these are
among the faculties, so ghastly to us, so facile to
him, of a Beecher.
In presenting this story, for instance, to his
"dear and venerable friend" Bonner, the Brook
lyn pastor recites a little home-scene; his father
Is listening, while he himself is preaching one
of his most favorably-remembered sermons;
the son hour of. passion Is the father's
hour of connoisseurship ; and, at the conclu
sion, Beecher tells how "the venerable and
meek patriarch" acts "tooter" to the rhapso
dlst,wlth a "Good, good as I could do myself. If
it hadn't been for me, you'd never have had him!"
But the parson's reminiseences will not be re
ceived with perfect sympathy by his lay audience.
One falls to see anything "venerable" in, the old
man's analysis and bolstering of the inspirations
of his son, or anything "meek" in his chuckle of
progeniture. The anecdote, however, is to the
purpose in striking a key note, like a leading air
set in an overture. The reader is prepared for
still more salient developments of the clerical
business-nomenclature. An incident in the
youth of Arthur Bissell, who is to be one of tilt;
martyrs of the War, has little point at all that we
can discover, except the reiteration of the name
God:
irWhat is God, Arthur," said his mother.
l'God is isa God is and God God
HRaving got safely so far, the 'mother suggests
"spirit," at which ho gasps eagerly, "God is a
spirit.'
"Infinite," says the mother. •
"Infinite," says Arthur. •
And then blushing and twisting in his chair,
ke seemed unable to extract anything more.
"Eternal," says the mother.
"Eternal," says the boy.
"Well, go on; God is a spirit, infinite, eternal;
—*hat else?"
"God Is a spirit, eternal, infinite,—what else?"
"Nonsense, says the startled mother. •
"Nonsense," goes on the boy, supposing it to
be a part of the regular answer.
"Arthur, stop ! what work you are making!"
The tiresome, vulgar side of Calvinist °WM
doiy is set 'out with some relish in Hiram's re
mark in the meeting-house yard, a few pages
further on:
"Them pesky Methodists is gittin in this town,
and preachin up failiu from grace, and
ridiculln election. Now them Calvin doc
trines belongs to this town. They've always
growed here. You might as well cut dow - n
these old elm-trees, and put up some of your
mew fangled splindlin trees, that look like brooms
bottom upward, as to set out" these Methodist
notions here."
The eccentric but "stern moralist," Uncle Eb.,
roughly declares, with the dogmatism of' experi
ence, that "half the grace that's going on is
nothing but food." Arthur, the same boy who
concluded that God was nonsense, grows up to
enjoy camp-life so much, but with such theolo
gical associations, that he puts it thus to the
heroine, his sister Rose: "My enjoyment reminds
xne of Parson, Buell's favorite expression in
prayer, 'Thy mercies are now every morning and
fresh every moment.' " Agate - Bissell, a camp-
Janne of very practical qualities, is convinced of
the dogma of total depravity by the selfishness of
the young surgeons; but as the assurance first
dawns upon her in a colloquy with President
Lincoln, which is not without pictorial force, we
kw quote the interview entire:
c.Within half au hour she was admitted. The
room was large, and furnished searelly better
than a country lawyer's ollice. A large open
fire-place was on the right side of the room as
she entered. On the left hand wall hung many
maps. One also there was over the mantel
piece, apparently jtist drawn in ink. and giving
the country between the Potomac and Richmond.
A large, long table covered with green baize
stood in the middle of the room, and beyond it,
near to the windows on the side opposite the
door, was ti similar table, at which sat a long,
lean, grandfatherish man. lie was running his
left hand through stiff and king black hair, now
beginning to be struck through with gray. ills
features were huge, and seemed, like chance
travelers at uu inn, to have put up together for a
night, rather than to have been a family of rola
geom. - • -
"Well, ma'am," said he, in a broad, country
AOCCaII, his voice somewhat drawling and shrill,
"this is Agate Bissell, I s'pose. What can I do for
you?"
ton can do nothing for me;" said Agate BlB
firmly, but with great respect; for she had a
`und New England reverence for a Chief
rate of the nation, queer as -she thought

"'he specimen now before her--"you can do noth
ing for.rae,bot you can do a go'od deal for the, sal
I diers." •
"Well, what is it ?" ,
Agate briefly narrated her experience, to which
the President listened gravely, and • she ended by
saying:
'I wish, Mr. President, that you would ask the
chief, edical director here, to look into this
xa er with.his own eyes, and not to take his
.01, Mien from ,drunken underlings, who, while
so Mrs shot down in battle are lingering and
dying before him, is lying beastly drunk, and
then would turn out of charge those who rebuke
him. Oh ! Mr. Preaident, how can anybody
doubt the doctrine of total
: depravity when they
see the wretches robbing wounded soldiers,
eating the delicacies sent to them, and drinking
their cordials, and letting their wounds stink and
rot, from carelessness ? It's enough to touch a
stone's heart."
Mr. Lincoln's heart was no stone.
"Madam, I will give you a note to the doctor,
and du yon go and talk to him just as you have
to me."
Be sat down and took nn unglazed visiting
card and wrote with a pencil :
"Dr. -----. Please hear this woman's state
ment, and make inquiry in person, and if it is
true,. put her back, and pray for twenty more
such women. A. Lisicoi..n."
"There—do you go yourself. It' anything
turns up, and it don't go right, you come to me
again. Let me see. Agate Bissell—Agate Bis
sell--yes, I'll remember your name and some
time I'll come down and see how you are getting
along."
From this picture the reader may see that there
are other qualities in Mr. Beecher'a narrative
style than this poor point of shocking the reader
by showing how flippantly he can "put up" a
dread name or a ponderous theory. Vivacity is
observable, and graphic force, and ingenuity, and
an odd faculty of illustration. All these
ornaments you must have, or you would not be
a Beeoher. But there is no harm if the pictur
esqueness be a little nanseous, as whore the man
with the wooden leg bOasts that he has "no toe
nails to cut," or where an old lady declares that
Roxy could not be caught with a fine-tooth comb.
Nor need the vivacity be expressed in words
ordinarily admitted to the vernacular. Eb. is
"clipper," and we are glad to hear it, though it
conveys no clear, Idea to our minds. Black Pete,
after his dram, "sizzled out a laugh." As for
wit, the speeches intended to be comio should be
gin with a "Wal."
In fine, to be a Beecher, acute powers of ex
ternat-observation must take the place of any
intimate psychological penetration, and a ready
faculty of matching such and Such a natural oc
currence with such and such another natural
occurrence must relieve the habit of getting
analogies out of the books of other thinkers. A
fine landscape, with a swart negro in it, for ex
ample, reminds Mr. Beecher not a whit of
Othello at Cyprus, or Aaron in Titus Androni
cue; it hints of no deeply toned scenery by
Titian or Salvator; it suggests nothing in Burton
or Sir Thomas Browne, in If Penseroso, iu Mar
lowe, in Spenser, that glorious landscape-poet of
the English Renaissance, or iu Chaucer, in
Boccaccio, or Rabelais. But it gives place for
much minute observation of ordinary nature, of
squirrels, grasshoppers and dogs:
Rex seemed really penitent, and might have
finished the journey with credit, if Widow Hub
bard had not kept geese. The moment ho ran
up the little hill which overlooks the brook, he
saw them. Slipping through the bushes and over
the fence, 'fu a twinkling the whole flock were in
a whirl. Some rushed for the water, some
tumbled over, all were screaming and trumpet
ing, and several having got wing flew squawking
for a hundred rods, and came down from sheer
inability to keep up. But long before they
alighted, Rex had let all alone, and stretched
away up the brook to take a smell and a scratch
at a woodchuck's hole which never failed to throw
him into a paroxysm of excitement since the day
that he ran a marmot into it.
The great, succulent leaves of the skunk's cab-,
bage were fully expanded.
We will conclude our notice of ails loose-hung
prolix, thoroughly inartistic, brilliant, good,
hearted, tasteless salmagundi by quoting the
most offensive page we found In it:
"Doctor, do you believe in Revivals ?"
"Certainly."
"You surprise me! I bad supposed that you
were too firm and intelligent a believer in Natural
Law."
"It is on , that ground that I believe in Revivals.
In every department of life men are moved in
masses, and, as it were, with social contagions.
Few men in any thing act alone. They kindle
themselves in the simplest employments by social
Contact. Social enthusiasms have characterized
the progress of the race in every department of
society."
"Because societies have been rude," said Tut] r.s.
Bacon, "and men have been animal in nature,
and it is no wonder that their animal feelings
should be excited."
"On the contrary,"replied the doctor, "animals
are not subject to social enthusiasms, or only in
the most rudimentary manner. Men arc suscep
tible of such excitement in proportion as they re
cede from animal conditions. In art, in amuse
ments, in social improvement, in patriotism, men
tend to act in masses, to be kindled by each other
to enthusiasm, and such conditions. develop, not
obstruct,the active powers. This social excitement
is favorable to taste, affection, judgment and rea
son. Ido not know why moral emotions should
be exempt from this same law."
"Brit you can plainly see that these things
I are got up. can give you a prescription for a
revival."
"Why not ?" replied Dr. Wentworth. "Is not
education 'got up ?' Is not art culture 'got up ?'
I Is not your own profession, and mine, 'got up ?'
IWhy should men be afraid to speak of moral
states as the result of deliberate and intentional
effort? Why should not men apply the term edu
cation to moral faculties as well as to others ?
and to study for moral results as they do for
social or :esthetic? Are not the moral sentiments
subject to laws as much as any other parts of the
mind ,!,"
"Yes—but church people imagine that
revivals descend upon them from above; that
they are mysterious and divine; that the loss hu
man agency is concerned in them the purer they
will be."
"It is only another instance," said the doctor,
"in which a tact is recognized before the theory
of its causation is understood. Ido not less be
lieve that a divine influence is experienced be
cause It pursues the channels of established law.
Men account for phenomena by natural laws, as
far as their knowledge goes, and then they
ascribe whatever is left over, beyond their
knowledge of causation, to superior beings.
The higher ranges of human experience are the
most complex and subtle, and seem mysterious,
'because the lines of causation are Liner and more
spiritual. But the protoUndest mysteries of
human experience will one day be found to
furnish the most admirable illustrations of the
universality and constancy of natural laws."
[From Every Afternoon.]
The Art of Applauding.
Mlle. Adelina Patti's baptdme, as it is
called, on the occasion, some years ago, of
her dcbfit at Paris, is described as having
been severely trying. At the first appear-,
ance of Amina, not a hand in that distin
guished audience gave one note of welcome.
With apparent indifference, but with sensa
tions, perhaps, she had never experienced in
her life before, the young singer proceeded
in her r7le, and had pronounced but a few
sentences of recitative, when a murmur ex
tended throughout the delighted house, antici
pative of a furore of applause. At the con
clusion of the first act, she was more than
once recalled. Flowers fell around her, and
when she finally withdrew, tears of triumph
stood in her proud eyes.
To know when to applaud, and how to ap
plaud, is an art with which every American
audience is not as familiar as the sealers of
Mlle. }?sti's success proved themselves to be
on the - night of her dilit. The most of those
who assist at a public entertainment are un
consciously transformed into an army of
elagueurs, if any one has the audacity to set
them going. A child shall lead them. Noth
ing is easier than to raise the applause, when,
THE DAILY EVENING BULLETIN PHILADELPHIA, MONDAY, APRIL 6 ,1868
like the conjuror's plates, it begina to droop.
There are many kinds of applause. 'rue
acclamations that await the renowned ar
tiste, -whose debit among us or whose rat
tree has been awaited for years; the plaudits
bestowed on favorite actors at benefits; the
infrequent bursts of recognition with Which
latent merit is rewarded in the hitherto
"stick," who blushes and stands confused at
his short-lived success; conventional, made
up welcomes of the superfluous veteran who
is compelled to lag upon the boards, because,
In his palmy days, he never laid by,in the
bank; the trances. and shocks of enthusiasm
wherein we shrine some sweet young debu
tante, whom we burn to know and to caress,
and whose beauty and genius we remember
with pleasantangs for years—these are sonic
of the varieties of an applause not only
national, but universal. To them ought to
be added the applause of the Bowery, which,
in itself; is a wonder in this Christian age.
That swarming gallery, that steaming pit,
where the men with batons, who are techni
cally termed Pods, keep order, aro infallible
in their discrimination. They are the strict
est dealers of poetical justice in all the world.
They groan down vice, and they giggle up
virtue. The heavy villain with the long
cloak finds no mercy at their hands. Him
and his myrmidons they devote to death and
destruction, and (if the manager permitted
it) they would walk through that same red
fire and sulphurous smoke in which. at the
falling of the curtain, virtue becomes trium
phant.
The most unsatisfactory of all applause is
the heavy dose which amateurs and debu
tantes with many friends are expected to
swallow; but which, to give them credit, they
do swallow without wry faces. The amateur
never seems to know when his audience is
"guying" him. Every now and then one
witnesses a really modest and shrinking
amateur, who is ,weak enough to have al
lowed himself to be persuaded into pnblieity,
or with a really modest and shrinking de
butante, whose merit he recognizes and would
applaud but for the officious hand-clapping
and ostentatious bouquets of friends destitMe
of the best taste.
On these occasions the applause is of the
most absurd and frantic character. It re
sembles that bestowed upon the members of
a graduating class, whose blushesare hid by
the armfuls of bouquets showered upon them
by gaping friends and families. It is all , in
vain. No amount of meretricious applause
will transform an amateur goose into a pro
fessional swan. When the amateur or the
debutante appears, the house is so packed
with his or- her friends that the genuine
artiste,,,who is very good-natmeci in having
-consented to appear, meets with a poor re
ception, and. receives not even the compli
ment of a- recall. 0 no; every one is elbowing
and twisting about, in order to get a better
view of "Our Alice" or "Our Tom," whose
name stands next on the programme, and
the whole affair resolves itself into a miserably
Mean and selfish apotheosis of exceedingly
ordinary merit.
Let us be conscientious, then, alike in our
applause and in our criticisms. Occasionally
some sweet young thing appears before au
audience, whom it takes at once 'twits 'heart,
and never thinks of seriously criticising, or of
doing anything with but apphiuding and ca
ressing, and fitin . g in every kind of way.
When that brilliant little gentleman, _Master
Betty, whom Richard Cumberland slicers at
with such paltry bitterness in his memoirs,
was in the height of his popularity,duchesses
loved to stroke his yellow curls, and dukes
drove him to rehearsal in their carriages.
And so in more modern days when a Rich
ard Coker bewilders us with his golden voice,
or a Teresa Carreno with her precocious ef
forts on the piano, one can only remember,
one only bears in mind the extremeyouth and
beauty and airs of innocence of these respec
tive professionals, and ceases to be discrimi
nating in his applause. .
Then, there lb the applause of silence—the
best applause of all. The quiver comes to
the lip, the tear oozes from heart to eye, the
chill and tremor of delight make low music
in the alcoves of our natures. Through
many a 3 ear, that which enthralled us at the
moment, survives and repeats itself, like a
dying echo never dead. Our memories aro
undertones, floating forever, and exquisite as
the music-murmur of the insect-world—that
eternal soliloquy of nature.
Under the title " Who Cares ?" the Lond
don 7on: ahawi thui criticises a bit of British
snobbery:
"Occupying a prominent position in the
columns of a daily contemporary, appeared a
paragraph a few days ago, informing the
devotees of Snobbism that `on Saturday,
February 8, Mr. Alfred Tennyson, the Poet
Laureate, had gone on a visit to. the Master
of Trinity, who had invited a select party to
meet him at dinner; and that the said Mr.
Tennyson had attended service at the College
Chapel on Sunday evening.' Now what does
all this mean? Was it inserted by the Mas
ter of Trinity as an advertisement for his
College—or an advertisement of himself ?
Perhaps the latter—for no doubt the present
master, whoever he may be, feels
uncomfortably extinguished by the
robes of his colossal predecessor. Or
is the paragraph meant as an
elevation of Mr. Tennyson, that all pious
snobs may fall down and worship ? Who
cares one straw to know where Mr. Tenny
son dined—above all to know that he dined
with the Master of Trinity? And then aa,to
the church-going : What are Mr. Tennyson's
religious exercises to the public? Does he so
rarely go to church that it is necessary to tell
us when he does? Or is he a pagan, and is
this his first appearaike at any Christian ser
vice ? Or are we not intended rather to gather •
that the service was held for Mr. Tennyson,
than that Mr. Tennyson went to' College
Chapel for the service, and that the congrega
tion was assembled simply that the great man
might be looked and wondered at? More
over, why the evening ? Where wast.the great
man all the morning ? There is something
sadly suspicious in the connection between
the Saturday evening dinner and the Sunday
evening service. Surely the poet was not em
ploying this unaccounted-for hiatus in bed!
Surely the Laureate was not sleeping off the
orgies of the previous night! Surely the
`select party' had kept up its exclusive cha
racter with respect to the Master's, choice
vintages! Perhaps there was an offertory at
the morning service, and the Poet Laureate
had nothing but 'coppers' to contribute, and
those too hot to be handled with impunity!
These are, of cOurse, but vague surmises, and
must be taken for what they are worth, but
when such impertinent batches of twaddling
information are obtruded upon the public we
May well be excused for being inquisitive and
suggestive."

pleasure.
We propose now, unless it is objected to to show
that that is false under his own hand. I offer his tot
ter to that effect, which, if there in no objection, I will
read. . .
Mr. EITANtIERY, after examining the letter—We see
no ineousisteney in that nor falsehood.
Mr. lirri.an—That is not the question I put to yon;
asked Not/ if you had auy objecrion. -
Mr. SiatillaftY—l have no Abjection.
Mr. BUTLy-n-- The falsehood id not in the :titter; It
is in the answer. _
De then read the letter, dated WashlnZton, D. C.,
August It. nfi7. as follows:
Silt: In compliance with the requirements of the

To the Hon. Hugh McCulloch, Secretary of the Trea,-;
Mr. .I.3uTL'en--1 with to call attention to this again.
because it tray have escaped the a.tentibn of Senetore.
Mr. Cr Irrle:-We object. We wish to know What
all this discussion means. What geesti..m is now be
fore the Senate: /low It is that Ms Ftatemeut is
made.
Mr BUTLER--I em endeavoring to stow that when
the President said that he did not onspend Mr. Stan

come to the conclusion that he bed the ti.rtit to sue

Mr. Cunm --We do not object to the honorab!.l

Mr.131,-rt.ei
-I am arguing nothing, sir. I read the
The joinnal asked for arrived at this point; and ivas
elected to Mr. Butler. He read the proceedings of
Mo n day, ma) 12, 24,70, and tee subsequent action of
the Senate on the following day. as follows;
"On Tee May, May PI, 2soo, thelsenate proceeded to
.consider the message of the Prestaunt of the.Cnited.
States of the Pith instant, and the nomination
tainted therein of John Marshall, of Virginia, to be
Secretary of State, whereupon it was '
Itev)h ., ,l. That they do advise and consent to the
appointment wording to the nomination."
Mr. IiTANIMIY—PIease to read when it appeared
there, at what hour this was done
Mr. BUTLER—I will not undertake to state the hoar
sir. I state directly to the Senate in answer to you
that the nomination went to the Senate, as it will ae
penr front an Claraltlatlo7l of the whole case, prior to
the letters giving to Mr. Pickering—
Mr. STAEMERY—WIII the honorable manager allow
me to add that he said he expected t 3 prove it.
Mr.'Brat.gu--1. expected it would appear from the
whole case. He tent it first, lam quite sure ; now.
then, as it was the duty of Mr. Adams to send it first
eo the Senate, I presume he did hie duty and sent it
to the Senate first before he sent it to Mr. Pickering.
(Laughter.) I want to say for them that, being all on
the same day, it must be taken to be done at the same
time in law : but another piece of evidence is that he
asked Mr. Pickering to send in his resignation. be
canto it was necessary to tend the suspension to the
Senate as soon as they eat, which be did?
Mr. STANIIERT requested a certified copy of the
Executive document in' queetlon.
CRETUT EXCALLED.
C. Eaton Creecy recalled.
Mr. BtT7i.rn--Q. Upon receipt of that notification
!Ay the President of the United :states that he had sus
pended Mr. Stanton according to the provisions of the
oh-11-tenure act. what was done? A A copy of the
Executive communication was sent to the First C'omp.
'roller, the First Auditor, Second Auditor, and Taird
Auditor.
Q. Base you the letters of transmissal there? A.
Witness produces and reads one of the letters promul
gating the information by the Secretary of the Tress
ory to the First Comptroller; he stated that the others
were similar.
Q. Are those officers the proper accounting and die
buraing officers of the department? A. They are for
the War Department.
Q. Then I understand you all the dishursingofficera
and accounting officers of the Treasury for' the War
Department were notified in pursuance of that act?
Objection by Mr. CURTIS.
Mr. Brxmut—Q. Were thereupon notified? A. Yes,
sir.
Q. Were you there to know of this transmission?
A. Yee, sir.
.
Q. Did ,you prepare the papers? A. Yes. sir; but
not in pursuance of any other act of Congress except
the civil tenure.
On motion of Mr. CorrsrQs the Senate took a recess
of fifteen minutes from half past two.
After the recess Mr. CONN T.S.i suggested an adjourn
ment, whereupon
Mr. CURTIS said: Ur. Chief Justice—lt is suggested
to me by my colleagues that I should make known at
this time to the Senate that It is our intention, if the
testimony on thopart of the prosecution should be
cloned to-day,as we suppose it will, to ask the Senators
to grant to the President'', counsel, three days in which
to prepare and arrange their proofs, and enable them
-elves to proceed with the defense. We find ourselves
in a condition in which it is absolutely necessary to
make this request, and I hope the Senators will agree
to it,
In response to an intimation from the Chief Jos
bee that the request be postponed until the Senate
was fuller, Mr. Cantle said he had merely suggested,
it now lest it should not be in order at another tune.
Mr. BdUTWELL called the attention of counsel to the
statutes as explaining the nature of the proceedings
In the case of the appointment of Mr. Pickering. Ile
-said the only appointment of the head of a department
which appeared on the record to have been made tier
, ing a session of the Senate was I,n first Statutes of
September. 1769, in which it is' provided that there
• shall be a Postmaster-General, with powers and com
pensation to the assistant clerks and depntles whom
he may appoint, and the regulations of the postoffice
shall bb the same as they were under the resolution
and ordinances of the last Congress. It was provided
in the second section that this act shall continue in
force until the end of the next session of Congress
and no longer, showing that it was merely the con
tinuance of the Postoffice Department that was cen
t templated.
On the 9th of August, 1790, Congress passed a sup
plementary act, in. which it was, provided, that the act
•of last eession, entitled an act for the establishment
of a Postoffice Department, be and the same is hereby
• continued in force until the end of the next session
•of Congress, which was a continuance of the Conti.
nental system of postoffice management. On the 9th
• day of March, 1791, Congress paned another act, con
tinuing the act for the temporary establishment of
Postoffice Department, in full force and effect un
til theend of the next session of Congress and no
-longer. On the 20th of February, 1792, Congress
passed an act making various arrangements in regard
tO the administration of the Postollice Department
.and to establish certain postal routes; that act pro
vided. that the act of the preceding 'session be con.
, tinued in full force for two years and no
longer, This act did not provide for the
.eatablishment of a Poatoffice Department as a
s
branch or the - government, - - Po ' 'that - the - act
of the previous session was continued by it until
'1794. On May 8, 1799, Congress paesed an act cover
ing the whole ground of the poatoffice system, provid
ing for a General Postoffice. And it appears from
- the record that it was then that Timothy Pickering
was appointed, althdugh the Senate was not in ses
sion; and they confirmed his appointment. This
fully explains the appointment of the only persons
.who was appointed during the recess of the Senate.
Mr. WILSON called attention to several entries in
'that journal - of 1800, showing that the Senate met
before noon.
Mr. BINGHAM offered 9n evidence the Executive mes
• sagas to the Senate of December 36 and December
19, 1867, and January 18, 1868, -in which the Tres.
Ident gives his reasons for the suspension from office
of several officers: also, a 'communication from the
secretary of State, accompanying one of the rues
sages, in which he reports the action under the ten
ore-of-office laws.
Mr. BUTLER then informed the'Senate that the case
onthe part of the House of Representatives was sub
stantially closed, although they might call a few more
' .witnesses whose testimony would be only cumulative.
