11.11 E CONTES TED lELIDOTION CASE.
The decision of the Court- of Common
, pie in the contested election case was
•ielivered this morning. It is in favor of the
three' Democratic claimants.
,A issrtion of
`the e sionatrous frauds in the Fourth and
Tireilty:third Wards are •'Allowed, hut they
' not suflicient of themselves to affect the
judge Allison's opinion is in , favor of
tiableing out all divisions in which the
hatted& kip been' proved, and sending - them
laic* to the examiner that ho, may sift out the
legalivheat from the fraudulent chaff. .This
seems to be the true method of procedure,
but 'it la 'overruled by Judges Peirce and
liire'wsterrupon grounds which are very ditli-
Cult to understand. Each of the judges
• itaudtii the right to throw out .whole
• dad= divisions, and each does throw
-eat' 'certain divisions. But they retain
ethers which the same fraudulent • practices
seem to have been proved, and as we under
stand Judge Brewster, after a hasty perusal
etp opinion, these are retained because it
'lksknot been the custom to throw out whole
divitdons on account of illegality in the recep
tion of votes, and it is held to be of the na
ture of a "snap judgment" to throw them
• out now.
'The judges who have thus decided this ha
portant case are all Republicans, and it can
not, therefore, be supposed that any political
bias has influenced them in favor of can
didates of the opposite party. Their decision,
though only that of two out of the four
Judges of the Court (Judge Ludlow giving
•no opinion), must stand as law, and
we have no desire to quarrel with it.
'What its effect will be upon the
purity of future elections in this
city cannot be for a moment doubted, but
that may be the fault of the law and not of
the law's interpreters. It must have a direct
influence to encourage and increase fraud at
the, polls, which is a result to be deplored by
all honest and good citizens. Beyond
this the community at large has no interest
in the decision. The personal and political
aspects of the case of little or no importance.
The purification of the ballot-box was the
great end aimed at and desired. That result
seems to have been lost, and a precedent to
be established which leaves but little induce
ment to Prevent or punish election frauds in
the future. •
PRESIDENT OR AUTOCRAT.
The President's counsel are taking advan
tage of the Senate's excessive liberality to set
up in defence of their client the theory that
his disobedience to law was only committed
in order to test the constitutionality of the
law. To establish this theory they have
tried to prove his intentions by acts and con
versations done and held after he had broken
the law. It will be a dark day for the coun
try when such a plea as this is admitted, for
the form of our government must then cease
to be republican and become a simple auto
cracy. The Constitution gives the President
a great controlling power over the acts of
Congress in his right of veto. Hasty
and injudicious legislation can be and
often brut been thus arrested and
conected,but with the exerciseof this power,
the President's right to interfere' with the
operation of the law ceases absolutely. In
the case now before the country there are
two simple propositions involved, which no
sophistry or ingenuity of the President's
t learned counsel can possibly obscure or con
trovert. The Tenure of Office law, vetoed
•by the President and then solemnly ratified
and confirmed by more than the Constitu
tional majority of Congress, is the law of the
laud. This law Andrew Johnson has delibe
ltately disregarded, denounced and broken,
'Terrified by the fear of the just punishment
of hie crime, he now pretends that he had
the right and was only trying to
test the validity of the law. If there
a single Senator that believes the
nincerity, of this,profession, there is certainly
not one that believes he had the right to carry
such an intention into effect. Until the
President of .the United States becomes its
autocrat, he cannot cease to be the servant of
the law. He has no more right to make' him
-self .its judge and master than has the mean
est beggar that crawls the streets of Wash-
Ingtatt.: This plain, bald proposition has
"been plainly and baldly asserted by the Sen
ate in its resolution of February 21st, 1868,
and •it is an insult to that body to suppose
that it will now stultify itself and repudiate
its own laws for the sake of fear or favor to
ward the man who now grasps at autocratic
powers which were never conferred uponhim
in this land and never will be. If he had 'the
intentkun which he now says that he had, they
were unlawful intentions and are no justifica
tion. If he was simply determined to force
4119 private and individual construction upon
the law, which is undoubtedly the fact, then
be *ratty of the crime of which he is
charged and must be convicted; or else the
&nate must stultify itself, and resign the
count* into the hands of a desperately bad
:.and vindictive despot.
The second proposition involved in the
trial is of a different nature, !nit of great im
rftgice. It relates to the duty of the Presi-
dent of the United states' in his relation to
Ibe people at large. Andrew Johnson is ar
raigned for his conduct during an offi
cial tour through
_the counta7,4--con
-
duet' sogrossly vulgar, violent, undigni-
Ace. And blasphemous that the whole
riper yet feels the tingle of shame when-
Itoter the subject is revived. The truth of the
reports of these infamous harangues of the
*toident diming his Chicago trip has been
:Cortipletely proved by the Managers. Much
time was wasted yesterday in attempts to
controvert the mass of evidence by which the
published reports were verified, but the at-
temptvas a signal fluluto, might have
been expected.
' It is true that Congress should never have
given Andrew Johnson the chance to make
these speeches. It is true that he should
have been impeached and deposed for his
drunken performances of the 4th of
March, three years ago. nut, there
was then a generous desire to cover
up hie shame, and to hope better things for
him in the future. How he has abused that
mistaken confidence the world now knows,
and the Senate is called upon to.declare judg
ment upon a series of exhibitions of official
indecencies which have int:tided irreparable
injury upon the national honor and reputa
tion, and brought the office of the President
into contempt before the eyes of the common
people. This is a very serious charge and
the Senate must meet it. The past tolera
tions of intoxication
,ainong its own members
excite a doubt whether the Senate of the
United States considers such conduct as that
which Andrew Johnson exhibited dur
ing the Chicago trip a misdemeanor.
But there is no question in the
minds of the people on this subject.
They felt then, as they feel now, that they
have been humiliated and degraded in the
person of their 'Chief Magistrate, and they
pronounce him unworthy, "weighed in the
balance and found wanting."
With •qiese .plain propositions before the
Senate, the Senator who failed in his obvious
duty would do so at a fearful personal cost.
He must impnilch and convict himself before
the people, before he can acquit Andrew
Johnson. must prove himself unfit to
hold his own high office, before he can lend
his VIEC to•sustain Andrew Johnson in his.
!Hs commonly reported that one or two
Senators have been bought up by Johnson's
friends, but we shall not believe that there is
one such, until his final vote fastens his dis
grace upon - him forever.
This•is-no pre-judgment of the case. Every
fact and every principle involved in the im
peachment of Andrew Johnson was as well
known to every Republican. Senator before
the trial began as it is 'known now, and the
man Who is mad enough to change ground
under the pressure that is now brought to
bear upon him, must make up his mind to
sink under that weight of opprobrium and
contempt that belongs to him who, through
timidity, or personal spite, or sordid interest
of any kind,deserts a high principle to which
he is openly committed, and fails in a
responsibility which he is bound to meet and
obey.
TIRE PROSPECT ON rule, PLAINS.
Last • fall; when the Indian Peace Commis
sioners announced that they had effected
treaties with most of the savage tribes upon the
plains,. and that the active hostilities which
characterized the summer had finally ceased,
grave doubts were entertained in many quar
ters as to the stability of the peace thus ob
tained. The Indians had been successful at
all points, and• the United States government
had not so impressed them with a sense of its
power, that they would have yielded unless
compelled to do so by some other cause.
From the fact that the treaties generally were
not concluded until late in the fall; it was re
garded as probable that the savages entered
into negotiations simply because they could
not fight excepting at a disadvantage during
the winter months, when food could not be
obtained for their horses, and because, by
consenting to the proposals of the Commis
sioners, they could obtain an armistice during
which to recruit for the Spring campaign.
It will be remembered that all through the
winter of 1866-7, even friendly Indians spoke
boldly of the war which was to be inaugu
rated "when the grass grew," and these pro
mises had a terrible and bloody fulfilment.
it seems not unlikely that the fears of an
outbreak during the season now opening,
will, despite the treaties, be, in a meassire
realized. By every mail from the far Wes;
we learn of individual cases of outrage on
the part of the Indians, and past experience
with these barbarians teaches nothing, if it
does not demonstrate that these petty acts of
lawlessness, are the precursors of an extended
system of organized war.
This anticipation may not be realized ; we
sincerely hope it will not be; but even as
good authority as General Sherman sustains
the belief that there cannot be enduring peace
with the Indiana while they are permitted to
remain in contiguity to the routes of travel,
subjected to the provocation of bad white
men, and exposed to the temptation to rob
and plunder. General Sherman holds to the
theory advocated by him last summer with
partial success, that danger of war will not
cease until the Indians east of the Rocky
Mountains are collected within the two North
and South reservations designated for them,
and there subjected to such influences as will
lead them to conform to civilized modes of
life. The difficulty is to induce the savages to
accept this arrangenient; General Sherman
thinks it could be accomplished eventually,
by refusing annuities and all other favors to
those Indians who will not agree, to the plan,
while especial kindneis is displayed to those
who do accept it. Perhaps this would have
the desired effect. At any rate it is worth
trying. The Government owes it to the best
interests of the country to use its greatest
endeavor to settle this Indian question
speedily and forever. The treaty business is,
at present, little better than a farce, and if,
with each recurring summer, we are to have
war upon our western frontiers, we may well
despair of pushing our civilization to its
legitimate extent in that direction during this
generation.
ABOUT PHILADELPHIA. DIRECTO.
RIES.
We have before us a copy of Gopsill's
Philadelphia City and Business Directory for
18(38-69. It is a formidable and rather un
wieldy volume, and it compares with the
earlier city directories much as the city itself
compares with the Philadelphia of old times.
The city bad grown to De a hundred years
old before it could boast of a directory, and
the first works of the kind, issued; by
Captain McPherson and Mr. White, and both
published in the same year, were unbound
pan:filets of a few score pages, and in point
Ofalie they are no more like the Directory of
IE6B than child's primer is like a respecta
ble family table. Much of this, bulk
is due to the advertisements that
are plentifully interleaved through the work,
THE DAILY EVENING . BULLATIN PHILADELPHIA; SAIURDAY, AYR
d that WO liberaily spri Wed in i dl played
form through the text, The directory pro per
seems to have been prepared with great care,
and piobably it is as reliable and as free iron
error as any similar work that has preceded
it. In addition to the names of citizens and
business firms, which occupy 1952 double
columned pages, the volume contains a, map
of the city, an index and a street index, a
business directory and an appendix, in which
churches, hospitals, banks, branches of city
government, iron and coal companies, secret
societies, &c. &c., are conveniently ar
ranged.
There are some whimsical peculiarities
about the names of persons that are illustra
ted in each successive edition of a
city directory. Thus we find in the
volume before us that the universal•
Smith family has over 1,900 representatives
who figure upon its pages. Of this army of
Smiths, 217 rejoice in the name of John, just
forty more John Smiths than there were
Smiths in all in a Philadelphia directory of
sixty years ago. Next to the Smiths in point
of numbers come the Browns. No less than
1,100 persons of this popular-hued designa
tion have "a local habitation and a name"
accorded them in the directory of the current
year. The Johnsons loom up 950 strong, and
the' Joneses come forward with a proud ag
gregate strength of 767. City directories are
usually esteemed dry reading; but they are
by no means deficient in interest and in a
certain value °Weide of their strictly prac
tical character.
Lippincott 7 s.lnagazine Nor May.
Mrs. Rebecca Harding Davis's romance,
"Dallas Galbraith," continues to move forward
in the resolnte,incisive-style which is the speciality
of the writer. A hash of gossipy anecdotes about
John Nagle, the artist, by Col. T. Fitzgerald, will
be relished by most natives of Philadelphia, where
so many of that brilliant portrait-painter's works
are preserved. " Valdemar the Happy," by M,
E. M. Sangster, is a dramatic ballad, republished
in these columns. The ablest article in the num
ber is that on the Talmud, by Rev. Louis C.
Newmann, D. D., full of study and sugges
tiveness; it richly supplements 'the article
in the British Quarterly for last October.
No one who participates in the least degree
in the increasing taste for oriental study can af
ford to miss the perusal of this paper. A Succinct
and neatly arranged essay upon the means of
communication with the Pacific, representing the
route by the contemplated railroad as the most
commodious connection between Europe and the
far east, is by R. T. Colburn. An otherwise racy
article •n. "Boston Wit and Humor," by Rev.
Walter Mitchell, is defaced by such a sentence is
th:s : "Humor belongs to Philadelphia!"—the
very accent of country-tavern brag. We shall
do the editors of the magazine the kindness to
point out whateyer we shall notice in the way 01'
this kind of localism, this 'village stolidity, than
which nothing does more to give an enter
prise the stigma of provinciality. We wish
needs
to be the purveyor to the literary
needs of a nation, not the pottering "tooter". for
a single circle. "From the Woods," a poem em
bodying the reverie of a poor scholar, is by Paul
13. Mayne. Short sketches, articles, ac., are by
C. M. Martin, 0. H. Procter, Kate P. Kereven
("Loyal en Tout"), G. M. Towle and Rosamond
Dale Owen. "Our Monthly Gossip" is like a
salon which one can drop into with the constan t
assurance of hearing pleasant people detailing
rare and pointed anecdote. The "Literary
Notices" this.month are meagre, reviewing only
one solid book—the "Evidences" of Dr. Barnes—
and one sensational one, Gail Hamilton's well
known "Counter-irritant." As a whole, the
number strikes us as being the brightest and best
ballasted of any yet, issued, and perhaps the most
attractive of all the monllies.

WAsnotyrow, AprillB.—The Democratic mem

prevented that body from taking a recces until 11
o'clock this morning, the hour to which the
Court adjOurntid. Considerable interest
was Manifeated to know how the House could
be announced at the bar of the Senate when the
hour arrived for it to assemble. When 11 o'clock
arrived, however, Speaker Colfax ascended to
the Clerk's desk, and giving one rap of his
gavel, said, "The hour has arrived to
which the Impeachment Court adjourned.
Such members us desire to be present cm accom
pany the Board of Managers. "All Republican
members then fell into line, and went to the bar
of the Senate with the Managers. The Democrats
were completely chagrined at thus being outwit
ted, and none of them accompanied the I4:pub
Bean s to the Senate.
The advantage of the Senate assembling at It
o'cloCk, was evinced when the Court assembled
to-day. Nearly every member was in his chair,
and the galleries were tilled with the same
fashionable audience which occupied them yes
terday.
I The first business in Com t was the offer of the
President's counsel to prove that while the
Tenure of Office bill was before the President for
approval, he• submitted it to his Cabinet and was.
advised by them that It was unconstitutional;
that Secretaries Seward and Stanton were dele
gated to prepare a message setting forth his ob
jections to it.
Before the discussion of this point was pro
ceeded with, Reverdy Johnson put en interroga
tory to the council, whether they offer this testi
mony m support of the answer and allegations
contained in the President's message, which has
been offered in evidence. ,
Senator Howard alio put a question as to what
effect the validity of-the Tenure of Office act has
on the case now before the Senate, wishing to
know whet position, in that respect they propose
to take.

air. Wilson, in arguing the case on the part of

the laws were expositions of the national wil

legislature. He said that the Civil Tenure

motor of the President to curtail his control of
oftikers in the civil service and to provide a way to

Its effect, If disregarded by the Executive, tended
to bring about an hapesehment. He said the

Important Arrest in Chicago.•A
adelphia Clerk Bobs His Employer
said i• Arrested.
LFrem the Chicago Republican of the 16th.)
A letter was received by General Superintend
ant, Rehm, from John Lemon, Chief of the Phila
delphia Detective Police, asking that a sharp
lookout be kept for a Capt. Fred. Schaffer, who
bad robbed his employer of some $2,000. It
seems that the Captain was, last December, the
confidential clerk of a Col. Kohler, in the "city
of Brotherly Love," and who, during a visit
to Eu rope, left tbe entire managemen H t of
affairs in the bands of the Captain. ardly
had Mr. Kohler left the country, before the clerk
commenced a series of larcenies, and finally rais
ing as large a sum as possible, left the city. He
was next heard of in Chicago, and consequently
the pollee of this city were notified, and a war
rant sent for his arrest when found. It Was in
course of time discovered that he had made ap
plication, through Charles S. Hotchkiss, Esq.,
for a pension, basing his claims on the grounds
that be bad lost a leg while in the army, and it
was by the aid of this important discovery, that
his whereabouts became known to the detectives
of this city.
Detective Charles F. Schuman, of the Superin
tendent's staff, was intrusted to work up the case,
and yesterday afternoon he was successful in ar
reatine, the thieving Captain, although his ill
gotten gains had long since been disposed of in a
manner best known to himself. Chief Limon, of
Philadelphia, was at once notified by telegraph,
and Captain Schaffer will soon undoubtedly be
- sojourning in the silent pt,incts of Moyamen

The Delaware Peach Crop.
(From the Smyrna (Del.) Tlmee.i
The cold snap of Sunday night, It is feared,
has greatly injured the peach crop. It was gene
rally believed that the buds were much] injured
previously, especially in orchards away from the
river, a, great un.jority of thorn giving evidence
of the ITFUCII blight produced by cold and frost.
In the "rusks," however, it has been thought
that the prospect was good for a fair yield, par
ticularly of the Troth variety. But the snow of
Sunday night, and the severe cold of Monday
morning, has worked destruction, it is thought.
It was worse on the trees than any night during
the winter, from the fact that the buds. being
swollen, were made wet by the snow and then
frozen. Our fears are usually magnified on the
peach question, but they are by no means ground
ss on this occasion.

FROM WASHINGTON.
THE IMPEACHMENT COURT.
Mr. Wilson's Argument Continued.
The Impeachment. Trial.
(Special Deproatch to the Philade. Bveninalietirt.l
WASSILNGTON, April 18.—Mr. Wilson discussed
the relative powers and duties of the President
and Congress under the Constitution, holding
that the legislature is the supreme power. Ills
rightful means of resistance - to the will of
Congress are circumscribed by the veto which•
allows him to resist the enactment of laws;
beyond that he cannbt go. tie cannot. after they
are enacted, either set them aside himself or ad
vise others to disregard them. To do so Is to
commit a grave misdemeanor; as to the
penalty for which, Congress is constituted the
only judge. .
He may not disregard the laws because his
cabinet advise him that they are unconstitu
tional. This would make the Executive supreme,
if he can secure unanimity through the advice of
his cahinet officers. And it this theory that the
President' can do no wrong, but, as is the case
with the monarch in England, can shield himself
behind the advice of his cabinet, it is plain that
the proposed evidence cannot be admitted. The
argument was delivered with much earnestness,
'an - d was Intently listened to throughout.
Mr. Curtis, in replying, said that ho could not
sea how the de fi nition of the powers of the differs'
out branches of the Government could affect the
admissibility of this testimony, which is offered
to prove the latent of the President. He
is expressly charged in the various articles
with intent to resist the law, and to meet these
allegations this testimony is offered. In answer
to the question of Senator Howard as to whether
the constitutionality of the Tenure of Office act
is to be determined by the Senate on this trial, he
said that that is a question solely
for the consideration of the Senate itself. It is
not within the province of counsel to say. If
Mr. Btanton's case is not within the
terms of that law, this question
does not come be fore the Senate
at all. The object is to show that the President
honestly believes the law invalid. Whether he
, had committed an infraction of the law or
I not, it cannot appear from that alone
that he has committed an Impeachable offence
and therefore claims the opinions Of the Cabinet
officers. In answer to a question of Mr. Johnson
Mr. Curtis said that this testimony was considered
corroborative of the statements in their answer,
though he did not understand the Managers to
deny the points of their answer as far as related
to the advice the. Cabinet gave to the President.
Mr. Williams asked if counsel considered the
advice given to the President as to the prepara
tion of the veto messages pertinent to show his
innocence when violating the act wheti-it became
a law.
Mr. Curtis announced that they did consider it
pertinent,as showing the intent. They hold that
the President honestly believes this law uncon
stitutional, and in that view, to prove his intent,
offer this testimony.
Mr. Curtis occupied but a short tine e iu stating
his point.
Mr. Chase then said that as the unlawful Intent
is the subject at which much evidence ou both
sidts Is directed, he thinks this litlestion admissi
ble to show the intent.
The ayes and noes were demanded, and it was
ruled that the testimony was not admissible—
ayes 20, noes 29. The Republicans voting to ad
mit were Anthony, Fessendem Fowler. Grimes,
Henderson, Ross, Trumbull,! Van Winkle and
Willey. Mr. Sumner did not vote.
The action of the Senate in overruling Mr.
Chase's decision seemed to take the President's
council by surprise. They held a short consul
tation, and then kaslied Secretary Welles a ques
tion, whether at any time, while the Tenure of
Office act was before the President, the subject of
Mr. Stanton being within its terms ever came be
fore the cabinet. -
This being objected to as substantially the
same thing as the one just decided, the offer to
prove, when committed to writing, was, that at
the Cabinet meetings at which Mr. Stanton was
present while the Tenure of Office bill was before
the President for his decision, the members of
Cabinet were asked by the President. and gave
their opinions, that the case of Mr. Stanton and
the other Secretaries appointed by Mr. Lincoln
were not within the restnctione of the act.
Mr. Butler objected that this was an attempt to
prove the construction of the law, as the other
was to prove its unconstitutionality. Both are
therefore substantially the same in their nature.
Mr. Evarts argued that this did not come with
in the previous ruling.
Mr. Butler replied that in the President's Mes
sage, he says that all his Cabinet officers come
within its provisions and he objects to it for that
reason, founding his principal arguments against
its enactment on that fact.
Mr. Evarts argued again that this testimony
was admissible and replied that Mr. Butler's
statement that the present theory of the President
was not the same held by him in his Message.
He Bald the qubstion as to whether Mr.
Stanton came within the law could not possibly
have anything to do with the objections to it on
constitutional grounds, while it bad everything
to do with the President's subsequent removal of
him under several of the alternatives which
might be presented to the minds of the Senators
in deciding this case.
The Chief Justice said he was unable to decide
how far the Senate desired their previous reading
to govern in this case. He would therefore sub
mit it to the Senate. The Senate refused to admit
the testimony by a vote of 22 ayes to 26 noes.
Messrs. Sheraton and Sprague changing and
voting to admit, while Mr. Conkling did not
vote.

roefess also that the course of administration which the
Turkish government has pursued since that timeline con•
elusively vindicated ilte character of the Sultan for an
gacity. ability and vigor. Certainly no State ever had lees
rennen to complain of bad faith, inattention or want of
comity on the part of a foreign government than the
I' nited States had° now to complain of the Sultan and his
government.
It in manliest, therefore, that your statement was made
through misconception. rind generous reparation is
therefore duo to the Sultan and his government. The
misconception was probably the effect of free partisan
debates iu the Turkish capital. It inevitably .happens
that the wisdom to+ well as character and talents of
statesmen and magistrates are misapprehended in PCll2Olll+
of great political commotion end excitement,. The Eastern
question atibe timesif your despatch was ezeiting pro
found attention throughout all Europe, and especially 50
in tbe Turkish capital. in such cases miscorideption is
penalty which falls not less on republican presidents and
secretaries than upon imperial rulers and their ministers.
It is a renalty which all pay for the grave and responni
ble trusts with which they aro charged.
I frankly confess that the injustice In the present case
is more the fault of this depa. Uncut than your own. It
Is not doubted that the despatch wee honestly and
sincerely written, and wilth a just expectation that the
onservations and reflections, confidentially cotmouni
rated for the infwmation of yo calculated`nment. would
not he'pliblished in a manner to wound the
sensibility of the government to which yen areAceredited.
Tbo publication here was the result of accident and
would not have been made if duo care and attention had
been bestowed.
We cannot, however, and we ought not to seek to die
pose of the case by dividing responsibility between the
department and yourself in regard to the affair.
This Government rem eta the error sincerely and with
out any reservation, and it will endeavor to see that suchi
justice and discourtesy shall not hereafter be repeated.
You are authorized and directed to pbtee a copy of this
paper in the, hands of his Highness the Minister for
Foreign A tfaire, to the end that he may. if he please, lay
the same before the Sultan and his Corerutnent:
