(Pram Evory Saturday.] LUCIFI Elr1111?.. BY At,YBll 1/..1.. • Ymn , ,, ronT LAME/all. wedded to Lneretin9. found ger waster cold c for when the morning flush Of paesion and the first ecubrate had died Bet Ween them, though he loved her none the lees, let often when the woman heard his foot Return from facings in the field, and ran To greet him with a kiss, the muster took Pain notice, or austerely. for—his mind Half buried 10 someyeightier argument, Or fancy-borne perhhps upon the rise And long roll of the Hexameter—he past TO turn and ponder those three hundred scrolls Left by the Teacher whom ho hold divine. She brooked•lt not; but wrathful, petulant, Dreamlbg some rival, sought and found a witch Who brewed the philter which had power, they said, To send an .errant passion home again, And this , at times, she mingled with his drink, And'this 'destroyed him; for the wicked broth Confused the chorale labor of the blood, Anittlekling the brute within the man's brain 3tatielavoc among those tender cells, and checked Ris power to shape: he loathed himself; and once- After a tempest woke upon the morn — tat mocked him with returning calm and cried,— " fitorm in the night ! for thrice I heard the rain Rushing : and once the flash of a thunderbolt— Methonght I never saw BO fierce a fork— Struck out the streaming mountain-side, and showed A riotous confluence of watercourses Blanching and billowing in a hollow of it, Where all but yester-eve was dusty-dry. f3fonatmd :what-dreams ye holy gods, what dreams, For thrice I wakened after drams. Perchance We do but,reeollect the dreams that come Just ere the, waking: terrible ! for it seemed A void was made in Nature; all her bonds Cracked; and I saw the ilarine atom-streams And torrents of her myriad universe Running along the illimitable inane, Fly on to clash together again, and make and another frame of things, Forever : that was mine, my dream, I know it— Of and belonging to me, as, the dog With inward yelp dud restless forefoot plies Ills function of the woodland : but the next I thought that all the blood by Sylla shed Came driving rain-like down again on earth, And where it dashed. the reddening meadow, sprang No dragon warriors from Cadmeiin teeth, For these I thought my dream would show to me, But girls, Hetairai, curious in their art, Hired animalisms, vile as those that made The mulberry-faced Dictator's orgies worse Than aught they fable of the quiet Gods. And hands they mist, and yelled and round me drove In narrowing circles till I yelled again Half suffocated, and sprang up and saw— Was it the Bret beam of my latest day ? Then, then, ,from utter gloom stood out the breasts, The breasts of Helen, and hoverlngly a sword Now over and now under, now direct Pointed itself to pierce; but sank down shamed At all that beauty ; and as I stared, a fire The fire that left a roofless Ilion, Shot out of them and scorched mo that I 'woke Is this thy vengeance, holy Venus, thine, Because I would not one of thine own doves, Not even a rose, were offered to thee ? thine Forgetful how my rich procemion makes Thy glory fly along the Italian field, In lays that will outlast thy Deity ? Deity? nay, thy worshippers. My tongue • Tripe, or I speak profanely. Which of those Angers thee most, or angers thee at all! Not if thou be'st of those who far aloof from envy, hate, and pity, and spite and scorn, Live the great life which all our greatest fain Would follow, centred in eternal calm. Nav, if thou canst, 0 Goddess, like oursolVes Tonal, and be touched, then would I cry to thee To kiss thy Mayors, roll thy tender arms Round hire, and keep him from the lust of blood That makes a steaming slaughter-house of Rome. Ah, but I meant not thee: I meant not her, Whom all the pines of Ida shook to see elide from that quiet heaven of hers, and tempt The Trojan, while his neat-herds were abroad : Nor her that o'er the wounded hunter wept, Her Deity false in human-amorous tears ; Nor whom her beardless apple arbiter Decided fairest. Rather, 0 ye Gods, Poet-like, as the great Sicilian called Calliope to grace his golden verse— Ay, and this Kypris also—did I take That popular name of thine to shadow forth The all generating powers and genial heat Of nature, - when she strikes through the thick blood Of cattle, and light is large and lambs are glad Nosing the mother's udder, and the bird Makes his heart voice amid the blaze of flowers Which things appear the work of mighty Gods. The Gods! and if I go my work is left Unfinished—if I go. The Gods, who haunt The lucid interspace of world and world, Where never creeps a cloud, or moves a wind, Nor ever falls the least white star of snow, Nor over lowest roll of thunder moans, . • • Nor sound of human sorrow mountato mar Their secret everlasting calm ! and such, Not all so fine, nor so divine a calm. Not such, nor all unlike it, man may gain Letting his own life go. The Gods, the Gods ! If all be atoms, how then should the Gods Being atomic net be dissoluble, Not follow the great law ! My master held That Gods there are. for all men so believe. I prest my footsteps into his, and meant surely to lead my Memmius in a train Of flowery clauses onward to the proof That Gods there are, and deathless. Meant? I meant ? 1 have forgotten what I meant: my mind Stumbles; and all my faculties are lamed. Look where another of our Gods, the Sun, Apollo, Delius. or of older use All seeing Hyperion ; what you will Has mounted yonder; since he never sware, Except his wrath were wreaked on wretched man, That he would only shine among the dead Hereafter ; tales ! for never yet on earth Cotild dead flesh creep. or bits of roasting ox Moan round the spit ; nor knows he what he sees, King of the East although he seem, and girt With song and flame and fragrance, slowly lifts His golden feet on those impurpled stairs That climb into the windy halls of heaven : And here he glances on an eye new-born, And gets for greeting but a wail of pain : And here he stays upon a freezing orb That fain would gaze upon him to the last; And here upon a yellow eyelid fallen And closed by those who mourn a friend in vain, Not thankful that his troubles are no more. And me, although his fire is on my face Blinding, he sees not. nor at all can tell Whether I mean this day to end myself, Or lend an ear to Plato where he says, That men like soldiers may not quit the post Allotted by the Gods: but he that holds The GodErare'eareless, wherefore need he care Greatly for thorn, nor rather plunge at once, Being troubled, wholly out of sight, and sink Fast earthquake—ay, and gout and stone, that break Body toward death, and palsy, death-in-lite. And wretchetkage—and worst disease of all, These prodigies of myriad nakeduesses, And twisted shapes of lust unspeakable, Abominable, strangers at my hearth blot welcome, harpies miring every dish, The phantom husks of something foully done, - And fleeting through the boundless universe. And blasting the long quiet of my breast With animal beat, and dire insanity. Bow should the mind, except it loved them, clasp Those idols to herself ? or do they fly Now thinner, sod now thicker, like the flakes In a fall of snow, and so press in perforce Of multitude, as crowds that in an hour Of civic tunault . jam the doors, and bear The keepers down, and throng, their rags and they, The barest, farinto that council-hall • Whes eft the best and stab:heat of the land ? Can I not fling this horror off me again, seeing with bow great ease nature can smile ; 3:3 u/rnier and nobler from her bath of storm, At random ravage ? and how easily The mountain there has cast lils cloudy slough, Now towering O'er him in serenest air, A mountain Oita mountain; ay, and within All hollow as the hopes and fears of men. But who was he that in the garden snared Piens and Faunus, rustic Gods? a tale To laugh at—more to laugh at In myself— For look! what is it? there ? yon arbutus Totters ; a noiseless' riot underneath Strikes through the wood; sets all the tops quiv ering— The mountain quickens into Nymph and Faun ; And hero an Orend (how the sun delights To glance and shift about her slippery sides And rosy knees; and supple roundenness, And budded bosom peaks) who this way runs Before the rest—A satyr ; a satyr ; see— Follows ; but him I proved impossible ; Twy-natured is no nature ; yet he draws Neater and nearer, and I scan him now Beastlier than any phantom of his kind — That ever butted his brother brute For-lust or lusty blood or provender; I hate, abhor, spit, sicken at him ; and she Loatheshim as well; stets a precipitate heel, Fledged as it were with Mercury's ankle-wing, Whirls her to me ;'but will she fling herself, Shameless upon me? Catch her goatfoot: nay, Hide, hide them, million-myrtled wilderness, And cavern-shadowing laurels, hide! do I wish What? that the bush were leafless ? or to whelm All of them in one massacre ? 0 ye Gods, I know you careless, yet careless, to you From chilly want and ancient use I call— I thought 1 llyed securely as yourselves— No lewdness, narrowing envy, monkey-spite, No madness of ambition, avarice, none: No larger feast than under plane or pine With neighbors laid along the grass, to take Only such cups as left us friendly-warm, Affirming each his own philosophy - - Nothing to mar the sober majesties Of settled, sweet, Epicurean life— But now it seems some unseen monster lays His vast and filthy bands upon my will Wrenching it backward into his: and spoils My bliss in being ; and it was not great ; Fcr save when shutting reasons up in rythm, Or Heliconidn hoiley in living words, To make a truth less harsh, I often grew Tired of so much within our little hte, Or of so little in our little life— Poor little life that toddles half an hour Crowned with a flower or two, and there an end— And since the nobler pleasure seems to fade, Why should - I, beastlike as I find myself, Not manlik e end myself ?—our privilege— What beast has heart to do it? And what man, What Roman would be dragged in triumph thian Not I, not he, who bears one name/with her, Whose deathblow struck the dalelesa doom of kings, When brooking not the Tarquin in her veins, She made her blood in eight of Collatine And all his peers, flushing the guiltless air, Spout from the maiden fountain in her heart. And from it sprang the Commonwealth, • which breaks As I am breaking new! • And therefore now Let her that is the womb and tomb of all, Great nature take, and forcing far apart Those blind beginnings that have made me man Dash them anew together at her will Through all her cycles—into man once more, Or beast, or bird, or fish, or opulent flower— But till this cosmic order every where Shattered into one earthquake in one day; Crack all to pieces—and that hour perhaps Is not so far when momentary man Shall seem no more a something to himself, Blithe, his hopes and hates. his homes and fence, And even his hones long-laid within the grave, The very sides of the grave itself shall pass, Vanishing, atom and void, atom and void, Into the unseen iorever,—till that hour, My golden work in which I told a truth That stays the rolling Ixionian wheel, And numbs the Fury's ringlet-Snake, and plucks The mortal soul from out immortal hell, Shall stand : ay, surely: then it fails at last And perishes as I must; for 0 Thou, Passionless bride, divine Tranquillity, Yearned after by the wisest of the wise, Who fail to find thee, being as thou art Without one pleasure and without one pain, Howbeit I know thou surely must be mine Or soon or late, yet of season, thus I woo thee roughly, for thou carest not How roughly men may woo thee so they win— Thus—thus: the soul flies out and dies in the air.'.' With that he drove the knife into his side : She heard him raging, heard lain fall; ran in, Beat breast, tore hair, cried out upon herself As having failed in duty to him, shrieked That she but meant to win him back, fell on him, Clasped, kissed him, walled: he answered, "Care not thou! What matters ? All is over : Fare thee well ?" 4.- A French 4.Arlist.” man named Riche was charged at Paris a few days ago, before the magistrhte, with being a vagabond. The Magistrate—What are you ? Prisoner—An Artist. Magistrate —This is the third time during fifteen months that you have been in prison. Prisoner—Ali ! to be. sure ! I gave myself up when I had neither house nor bread. Magistrate—You say you are an artist. What art do you prac tice ? Prisoner—l was with a quack dentist for fourteen months. I left him on Feb. 15, be cause he gaVe me little or nothing. Magistrate —Well, what did you perform for this charl atan ? Music ? Prisoner—No, Monsieur, I was his patient. Magistrate —What do you mean? Prisoner —You see, it was abSo lutely necessary to get clients. Ile had to persuade people that he could exiract teeth without pain, and as this was not to be done, he had to employ a decoy. Well, then, 1 represented sometimes a peasant, sometimes a workman. I was several times a woman, and also a soldier. This was the way to. do business; for, you see, if I did not disguise myself I should soon be known. I stood amongst the crowd, a simple listener to the fine promises of my patron; who was explaining, like fun, how, having studied physics, metaphysics, optics and mathematics, he was now able to extract teeth with a sabre, with a key, with a pipe -stem, a two-sou piece, or in fact any thing. Thereupon he invited any bystander who was suffering from a bad tooth to come forward, at the same time depositing fifty francs to be given away if he did net take out the tooth without causing pain. It was I who came forward. The Magistrate—And you bad all your teeth taken out? Prisoner —Ah, Monsieur, no! It was a sham. I had a false tooth which I put into my mouth be fore stepping up to my patron. That was the tooth he always pulled out. Magistrate— And is that what you call being au artist? Prisoner—Phew ! You know —lls but a word. Magistrate—You must go to prison for a month. A Literary Curiosity. The Boston Couricr says; "In the fifth volume of Carlyle's 'History of Frederick the Great' there is quoted a very remarkable letter of the Marquis of Montcalm, dated August 24, 1759, only about three weeks be fore his death, and addressed to a kinsman in France. .Carlylo copies it from a work by Lieutenant-Colonel Beatson, called 'lle Plains of Abraham; Notes Original and Selected,' printed at the Garrison Library Press in Gibraltar, .1858. Colonel Beatson linds it in 'a book entitled : `Lettres de M. le Marquis de Montcalm a MM. De Berryer et De la Mole: I 727-4759; Londres, I 777,' which Carlyle says is not in the British Museum, and is a forgotten book. But though not in the British Museum,'a copy is to be found in the library of the Boston Athenteum. It is a pamphlet, and not a book. It contains three letters only, and one of these is partly composed of a copy of a curious communica tion to the Marquis from a Boston corres pondent, 'S. J.,' under date of January .1, 1757. The publisher is j.- Almon, and the • lettera are in French and EnglielLr The . Courier gives in English a considera ble part of the letter, which Carlyle quotes in French. It was addressed. by the Marquis de Montcalin to Mona. de la Mole; First Presi dent in the Parliament of Paris. THE DAILY, ICVENING BULLETIN PHILADELPHIA, SATURDAY, 'Ana 20 0.868. • ~ . .

CLOSE or VISTERDAY'S rEOCEEI)IKfIS The court here, at a quarter before two o'clock, took a recess for fifteen minutes After the recess Mr. liaison continued his toga !trent. and referred again to the debate on the.reinoval of Mr. Duane by General *Jackson, and to the part which Mr. Clay and Mr. Webster took in the debate. He also referred to a the fourth by Mr. Madison. and to be found in the fourth vohtme of ?Addison's Works. The argruneut on the other eider he con tinued, is that, the President of the United States le, under the Constitutiom a mere man in buckramt that he has no power or authority to deckle anything; that he can do nothing on the farm of the earth except it is nominated in the bond; that he mast be GM Waste° instrument of Congress 01:18 that he must be stodect to the government and 'tontrol of the other depart ments. The argument which we make is, that under the Constitution there are many powers the United vested in and imposed on the President of the United States, and that he must of moony have,a right, in cases ap propriately belonging 40 hie depattment, to exercise something like judicird .opinion; thuit lie must set upon his own authority and upon his one construc tion of the Conatitution; and ehether be does thst in reference to the removal of an officer, or in reference to anythieg else, Linaintath that it differeot from( the :Leticia of a private individual. Mr, mom proceeded to quote frog) another speech 'of Mr. Madison,. to the effect that the co-ordinate de partmente of the government have a right, each for itself and each within its appropriate sphere, and in reference to its own appropriate duties, to construe .the Conatitutimi. If this view, be' right, then .the President of the United Orates bad the right to Con strue the Constitution for himself, notwithstanding the Wane of the elyttrtentire act, and he had the 1101 to act We it 'lithe manner in which he did; and you cannot tnake.a crime you cannot make an offense out of Minh au action, you cannot justify it In the view of the American people, you cannot justify U, to the chilizedworith Mr. Nelson then referred to the famous protest of Gemmel Jackson; elatmlng the rights of the President to remove office% and said: Yon will see that (len eral sTariteml, with shuseteriatic energy and meagre, stood- up tilithfully, vindication of the executive power, while he Was President of the United States. I term now a few wordato say in relation to the Preei dent's action in unmoving Mr. Stanton, and in further answer to the first'artiste eigaiest him. Yes, you have observed the filet proposition that I have endeavOted ter , demonetrate is, that the' civil tenure bill is unconstitutional and void, for if the doctrines be correct, whicb I have endeavored to main tain before you, and, if, this long chain of authority is entitled to the slightest degree .of respect, then it foliewstnevitably that Congress had no power to pass the law, and it follows, furthermore, that the Peed dent bed the right ter:mercies a judgment in reference to retaining or. mmeoving one ed the .connzellors, whom the Constitution bad Pht.W . . around bbn for the purpose of aiding him in the administration of public Affairs. Statile other View In which I wish to argue the case is tbis: It bair ire to indicated in various etatemente from time time made by me In the progress of ' ray remarks. suppose that the pWosition which I have"endeavored to maintain beTore you is erroneous; suppose that Congress is right and the President is wrong t suppose that Con gress bad the power th pass the d tenure bill : suppose that the Preeiderit had no right to act con trary to it--again the question comes np whether or not he le guilty on any of these articles of impeach ment. Chitty lays that '4.ntent is not aidays inferrable from thetmealone,larsti I maintain that only when there was intention, there can be crime or misdemeanor. In continuM= of this line of erguffimt Mr. Nelson referred to Wharton Roscoe, and other writers on criminal laws, and continued : now can it be said that the President had any wrong or =awful intent, when the Constitution gives him the power to jedge for himself in refereace to the particular act charged ? How can It be said that he bad any wrong , or unlawful intent, when the practice of the government for all the periods of time to which I have referred was satil olent to justify him in exercising the powers which he attempted to exercise. If May's view is correct, aid if the other writers are correct, :tape President believed the law waren. coostitutiowd,then. , at. least until the question was adjudicated in the highest court in the United States, the President bad a right to exercise his judgment, and you cannot hold that he was gni ty of any crimi nal intent. Was tbarefflier such a case presented?' Bow, bold, bow naked doei this charge appear when you* look at the principle inverted. I will not take up time to turn to the evidence of the witnesses, which you all have fresh in the him Was there ever such a scene in the history of the world, among men claiming to have intelligence, among per sons in the exercise of ordinary reason and judgment, as the scene which occurred in reference) to Mr. Stanton's removal, and at the at tempt to bring this question before a court of justice, There was old General Thomas, who has been tole =Mired a good deal on the other side, bat whom I take to be a plain, simple-hearted. honest old man. Ile has been forty years in the military service of the mental, Ilan no suspicions such as the gentleman (Mr. Boutwell) Minded to yesterday, as to whether he was in favor of the rebellion or against it. If he was in fever of it, It was very extraordinary in Mr. Stan ton to send him Into the Southern States, and that he should mantra seventy or eighty tho mend negroes to fight the battles of the country. Perhaps he was a little vain at the Mesa being appointed Secretary of War, ad interim.' but who that heard his testimony here in this court doubts for a moment ble intention to speak the truth in everything he said. Be goes there, arid you love that wonderful scene that takes place, when he attempted to get poseeselon of the office of Secretary of War. Was there ever such a thing seen since the world begleor. Was there ever such as act of force as that with. toot alace between Mr. Thomas and Mr. Stan ton while this proceedieg was going on? They meet together like twin brothers, they almost embrace each other. I believe he said that Mr. Stanton did bug him, or something like that. [Laughter-] If he did not hug him be came very near it. [Laughter.] And in the fullness - of his heart Mr. Stanton became exceedingly kind and liberal, and called for liquor, and had it brought out. The little vial - con tained only about a spoonful, but it was fairly, honestly and equally divided between those two aspiring Secretaries. [Laughter.] It was done in a spirit of fraternity and love such as I Ap pose was never before witneaeed in any forcible eon test. [Load laughter.] Mr. Stanton says to him in effect, "'This 111 neutral ground, Thomas, between you and me; there is no war here while we have this liquor on hand." [Laughter.] Not only did Mr. Stanton divide that sful, but he felt so good that he sent .out and got' a bo poon ttleful more, and I suspect, Sena tors, that our old friend General Thomas not only felt , a little elevated about the idea of being appointed Secretary of. War ad in terim, atter baying served the. country in inferior positions, for a condderable length of ttme, but I i tu =gine that the old man took so much of that good liquor on that occasion that he felt his spirits very mach elevated, and that he was disposed to talk to to. Mr, Karsener.add the other men as hg did. But they tell you he was to take the office by "'force. Ota yea, force! Ile was forcibly to eject ktr. Stanton from the office of Secretary of War by drinking a spoonful of liquor with him, and then dividing a bottle. [Laugh er.] Was there ever such a farce before? Was there ever such a lame and impotent conclusion as the tes timony on the other side? and then Mr. Stanton goes out that night, or somebody else for him, and awakens up Mr. Meige in the dark hours of the ntght; they go and arouse up Mr„ Moto as if felony was aboet to be committed; they go there as if they were attempting to raises hue and cry They awaken him from his slum bers and require him to go to his office and make oat a warrant against the old man Thomas for trying to vi olate the civil tenure bill. Mr. Metes arises and goes to 1113_90:Ice in hot haste, with something like the haste with which < these impeachment • proceedings were • gotten up. He goes to hie office and lakes a warrant with all proper gravity and decorum; it is \put in the hands of an efficer, and poor old Thomas 1843elzed before he had got his whisky in the morning °sligh ter), and is to be tried for this great offense of violat ing the civil tenure bi 11... But lo and behold, when the • old man gets counsel to defend hint, and goes before the judge, and lawyers get to discussing the question, this terrible offense which it took the midnight war rant to meet; this terrible offense which it required a sheriff, with his tip-staff, to take care should not be • committed, begins to sink into insignificance. When the lawyeis got up and argued it before' the judge they began Wend out that there was some idea of taking the thing up to the Supreme Court, and .then, all at once, the offense which two hours before Vas so terrible,• trunk into insignificance and the old -man Thomas was disclunneffi. his own recogni .z,ance. cause is to be made out for settlement or adjudication in the Supreme Court of the United States. • Mr. Nelson then proceeded to recapitulate briefly the eharges„made in the second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth and Seventh articles, and, the answers of the 'President to each of - them. Mr. Nelson read a portion of the eighth, article of the rtnewereand contiuned: I remark that there is nothing in the tenure of civil-oftice act againet the intent, lawfully to control the diebureement of the rat:ineye miproprlate.d for the military service In the War Department, and no pretense can be lawfully lin- Pllteeitie Oda. an intent. Under, the Constitution the President is to take care that the laws shall be faith fully executed. The President is to make army rules and regulations, there being no limitation on the subject! lie may lawfully exercise control over the acts of hie subordinates, as was determined by the •Suprerne ,Court' of the United States in the case of the_ United States against Ellis (16 Peterea'49l; 14 Curtis, 804). , The precedents have been declared by the Supreme Court of the United States to be such as we maintidn—that no offense can be predicated from such acts. • - `Mr:" 'Nelson read the 'ninth article, charging the President with erideavpring to induce General Emory to violate the provOloris of, the tenure-oforffice act, 4c., and also the President's answer thereto, and continued: Yon will see that there is no substantial difference as I understand it, between the conversa tion as set out in the Preeident's answer and the con versation as stated by Generel Emory himself • Ile Nuys that he did not request General Emory to disobey reprieve that he merely expressedthe opinion that the law was in conflict with tbe Constitution, and General Emorgeuetained that. to ail intents and purees* for when the subject was introduced General Emory in terrupted the President and called hte attention to this appropriation act. Now, I have to say, in reference to this ninth article, that the Constitution, article two, section two, with which yoo. are anismiliar,jprovides that the Prosiden , shad be ' . Commander-in-Chief' of tAo,l4:rely of the United Statue. The ehieet .0f thin t aa. stated , in 9 Bent, thih :1 Blliott's debates,btory on the on stitution, section 1491; 92 Maranon, G 8343 the C oh ject was to give the excrete° of power to a single h tud. In lhe Meigs' case, Mr. Attorney-General Black (and I presume, from the culogy;.assed on Atiorney-(4en eral Black by the honorab le member yesterday, his opinion ought to be a very authoritative opinion) —in Captain Meigs' case,Attorney-General (slack says: "As Commander-tnChlef of the Army it is yoar right to decide according to your own judgment what Dill cos shall perform any f particular duties, and as the finprone Bzecutive meg strate you have the po ger of appointment, and no one can ; take away from the President,' or In anywise diminish the autho.ity conferred on him by the Constitution • And now, 'ask, is there any proof shown berate the first place, that there was any unlawful or imprnper 'conversations between the President 'and; Goleta! Emory. 31rOlanager Batler,with that fertility , of inven tion which be has so eminently displayed at every stage of this proceeding, argues that it VMS eithet tO bring about a civil war, by resistinng a law of Con gress by force, or to recognize a Congress composed of rebels and Northern sympathizers, that this cow versation was had. When genUernen talk of his trying to turn usueper. and his havings purpose in sendingforpeneral Binory, do they prove any improper design on tee part? f'one on the face of the earth. Was it not natural in this state of things, when the whole country was agitated and excited, when men's minds were aroused every where in the ,unfortanate condition of parties in the United States to such an extent as that they Were of fering troops. on the one hand, to sustain Congress, and on the other to sustain the President, and when the Lientevant-General of the Army and the Presi dent bed differed in their opinions, I maintain that the very fact that lobes done notte lag of a military ammeter. &owe that he had no in tention to do the acts which are imputed to him. But It MA right. It was natural when he saw these dis patches,' when he knew that there was a difficulty be tween General Grant and himself; when he knew that there were persons sending dispatches through the newspaper goventees, and prominent men in various States In the Union; sending dispatches stating how they were to stand up for the Vongrese of the United States. In-that controversy, it was natural and right apd within the.agitimate scope of the powers con ftrred upon Ida by the Conatitutton, that he should send for this officer. that he should inquire what was the meaning of these new troops that were brought in to the Department of Washington. He hada right to lie and the fact that he did' it is no evidence of an un lawful designate his part, bat it proves that he was endeavoring to understand. as it was his duty to understand as the Commander-in-Chief of the -Army and Navy of the United States, What 'was the meaning of the introduction old these forces,. What did he know but teliet General Grant in the progress of this quarrel might assume the power of -a military dictator? How did he know but what General Grant might be endeavoring to surround him with troops to have him arrested? Had not he a right to send for an officer and inquire if he knew of the introduction of these military forces here, and when he found that it was only a trivet force ; when he found that there was no expressed design on the part of anybody to violate the Constitution of tee United States, didn't he stop ? No effort was made on his part to manage the army or to persuade the army to go to war with the Congress to the United States, but he retained his counsel., and. in a peaceful manner, submits himself to the judgment of the Senate; and I stand here in the face of this Senate and say that- the history of the whole world does not furnish anything in moral sublimity andgrandure surpassing the triumphant spectacle which we now behold. Mr. Nelson quoted the tenth article in regard to the President's at speeches the Maneion, at Cleveland,, and at St. Louis, andExecvtive continued: A great deal of testimony has. been taken about this. I might make an argument as to whether they are faithful representations of what the President said or not, bat I thrill not worry your patience, after having delayed you so hog with my argument, on that point. Mr. Nelson then quoted from the answer. He proceeded: We es y, therefore, that this is a personal right in the President and in the citizen. I say, further, that these speeches were not official like hireZtenmcmica dons to Congress, bat mere private and personal, and in answer to the call of his fellow- citizens. Why, ten years ago It would have struck the American people with astonishment that such a charge should be preferred against the President ad the United States,Why, almost from my boyhood,down to the commencement of the war, I had talked time and again about what was known as the old sedition laws. and if there was anything that stunk in the nostrils of the American people, it was that. The object of that was to prevent the publication of mat ter that might affect the President or the government of the United States. We, in this country, like to exercise the freedom of speech which our father" guaranteed to us in the Constitution, and like the liberty of the press, which Is also another cherished right of every American citizen. We look to have the largest liberty in the exercise of that right. The American people have been si , ,:- customed to it ever since they were a nation, and it tea great deal better to tolerate even impropriety and indecency of speech, and to tolerate Inc licentious nees of the press, than it is to impose such restrictions as are imposed in other countries upon these things. Public opinion, as a general rule, will I regulate and control the indecency of speech, as it wQi regulate and control the licentiousness of the press. if public opinion does not do it. why, as a general rule in a great many cases, the arm of the law is long enough and strong enough to apply any cow rective that may be necessary, but the American people will sneer no restriction of the freedom of speech. Members of Congress have the right to speak, and to speak with perfect freedom of the conduct of the President; and the President, in turn, has a right to carry the war into Africa and speak about Congress when he is united. And, if be does this, he has jest the same right to do it as any other citizen In our government. And, when you destroy the right of the President of the United States to defend himself against charges made against him, either in Congress or out of Congress, why then you put the President at the feet of Cm ere's, andyon destroy that independence which was intended by the Constitution to be secured to each of the co-orainate departments, of the government in their appropriate spheres. We all know that the venerable leader of the House of Representatives, who had opposed the Pre sident's nomination at Baltimore, and who. if I am not much mistaken. just a few days before the Presi dent made one of his speeches which he has made in tbsecause of this cent oversy, spoke in the House of Representatives about Charles the I. The President made a speech in the Executive Mansion on the tad of February, in which he noticed that speech, treat ing it as * sort tre incentive to assassination. That incentive so far as I know, was never noticed by the managers of the House of Representatives he had a perfect right to say anything he pleased about ttu, President of the United States, bat when these things were, done by members-of Congress and circulated ail over the land, published broadcast in the newspapers, what is there in the situation of the President of the United States that pre vents him from exercising the ordinary right of self-defense, that belongs to every citizen of the land. I admit that the President of the United States, in a communication to you officially as members of Congress. ought to preserve a proper decorum• ' that amenity of expression, if I may use such a term, which, should be employed in the intercourse between one dettattpient and the other. Bat I mention that when Andrew Johnson took his tour from Washing ton City to Chicago, and St. Louis, and Cleveland, and Obleinnati, and returned to the City of Wash- Witten,' be was nothing bat a private citizen; to be sure he is president of the United States, but nettling in the Constitution. nothing in the laws au thorizes any one to , regulate his movements. He goes as a private citizen, and if he is called to make a speech and be chooses to respond to it, and some se veriptillipiN have been hurled against him by mem bers of Congress, and he chooses to answer them, and members of Congress have insisted in the strongest terms en their right to hold this, that, or the other doctrine, cannot the President answer the charges in the same way? I believe it has been proved. In regard to every one of those occasions, that it was sought, not by the President, bat by others; as when Senator Johnson and others called upon the President at the a:Nestles,' Mansion, they called upon him in their character as citizens, and he replied to them as he had" a right to reply to them. When he went to Cleveland it is shown that he did not deeire • to' do anything more than to make a -salutation to the people, but he was urged by his friends to do more, , and I think it very, likely from the circumstances which were de tailed here in evidence that Mall probability there as a mob there in Cleveland ready cut and dried to insult and abuse the President in the manner they did, so as to prevent him if possible frets speaking, and when they gave hills provocation he replied.just as any other man should do and had a right , to do, and if he need strong expressions in regard to Congress they were not stronger than he had a right to use. I tell you Senators, he has a right to speak of any act of Congress in any mode that he sees proper. There is no law and nothing in the Constitution to prevent it. One of the greateet righta secured to the people under the Constitution would be invaded if this privilege was dented. Mr. Nelson then elicited from the eleventh article and from the President's answer, and continued: Time and time again the President in his veto messages has asserted his views and opinions as to the rights of the Southern States now excluded from representa tion. And although the phraseology ten little more courtly elegant in the messages than in the speeches, yet, substantially the President has in almost every one of these tommunication a insisted that these Statea are entitled to representation in Congress. The gentleman who lasi addressed yon (air. Bout well) said that the President wish , dto obtain control of the army and navy, and to regulate the elections of '6B and '69, allowing rebels to swords° the elective franchise and excluding negroes from voting. What authority did the honorable manager get in this case to make that assertion? He says that the South has been given up to bloodshed. I live in the South, had beennot the slightest doubt that, although there had been a bad state of things in Some wrtions of the South, nine-tenths of the murder+, and assassinations, 'that have been reported in the newspapers arantere ' seneation etoties, matte with a view to excite met. THE DAILY EVENING BULLETIN.-PHILADELPHIA, SATURDAY, APRIL 26. Is6B. As to the Preeident assuming powers at warraate Iltbe Conetitution,l have endeavored in my feeble way to show you that be is not guilty. I say to you, defla tors, that you have a'solemn responsibility. ' , I have the tram! , faith now that I have had ever sine° I under if oft this CBl3B, the same confidence which ought to be reposed In the Aniericari . Senate. I-tbinkisven tbo benate of the United Stites may look Weis to'the history of the world for the 'purpose of denying some instructive lessons. Without under taxing to travel along the whole cburse of history, some three or four examples have occurred la the b I etory.of the world that are pot unteerthy of a pairing notice. The account which, has been, transmitted, to utrof 'the murder 'of Cesar by Brunie, has raised the question for nearly twenty centuries whether that act was an act of patriotiera, and whether it was justified or not?, The execution of,Charles the First is another of the 'historical problems which bas never been and never will be. settled: In the opinion of, mankind some regard Cromwell as a patridt osiimated by the purest motives. Others as an ambitious man craving for power and property. violencete still remains open, but the deeds of committed in the world have not always been folitnied by peace and quiet to those Who have done them. A few short years after the execution of. Charier' the First, the bodies of Cromwelt and Bradshaw, and one or two others who were concerned in his execution, were, in consequence of a change in public opinion, taken from their graves and hung by the party that came into power. Louis NAL was executed by the people of France. Did that act give peace and quiet to the French king. don)? No; it was Boon followed by deeds of bloodshed such as the worldnever sew. The guillotine was put in motion, and the streets of Paris ran with human gore. These deeds that are done in times of high party and political excitement, are deeds that should admonish yon as to the manner in which you dis charge the duty that devolves upon you. I have no idea that consequences such as I have 'described will re sult, but yet deeds that are done in excitement often come back in after yearef and cause a de gree of feeling I will not attempt to de scribe, God grant that you may so act in the discharge of Your duty, that there shall be no painhil . remembrance, Senators, to come back upon yon in a dying hoar. God grant that you. may so act that you - will not only be able to look death and eternity in theft, but feel that you have discharged your duty an ur whole duty 'o (3od and your country. If so yon I receive the approbation of men and angels and the admiration of posterity. I do not know, , Mr.ChiefJustice and Senators, that it is exactly in accordance with the etiquette of a court of justice for me to do what I propose to do now, but I trust the Senate will take the will for the deed, and if there is anything improper in it you will overlook it. I cannot close the remarks I have made in this case without relating my profound thanks to the Chief Justice and the Senators for the very kind and patient attention with which you have listened to me on this occasion, imperfect and lengthy as has been the argument I have offered. Yon have extended a patient attention which I had little reason to expect, and t cannot take my seat without extend ing to you my thanks, whether it be in accordance with the usage or not. Mr. Nelson hiving concluded his argument at grunter past four o'clock, the Court adjourned until twelve o'clock tomorrow, and the Senate immedi ately thereafter adjourned to the same hour.
