EVENING BULLETIN.
I uesday. April 28. 1808.
THADDEUS .s LEVENS.
When it is remembered that Thaddeus Ste
vens is one of the members of Congress sin
gled out by the President as a target for his
especial abuse before the people, the calm
dignity of his argument before the Court of.'
Impeachment, yesterday, is indeed to be
wondered at. And when to the fact of his
bitter provocations are added that power of
lime invective which is so terrible to his ad
versaries, and that intense earnestness which
characterizes the man, it seems strange that
Mr. Stevens was able to refrain from pouring
out before the Senate those passionate utter
ances which would have been the natural ex
pression of the indignation and scorn with
which he cannot but regard the "distinguished
respondent" now arraigned at the bar of the
Senate.
But Thaddeus Stevens is an old man, an
accomplished lawyer, a true patriot and a
sound etatestnan. He has brought all of his
extraordinary vitality into this splendid ar
gument, and while here and there his tren
chant native humor and withering Sarcasm
flash out with all their wonted brilliance, the
speech itself is a calm, thoughtful, very ear
nest and very able discussion of the great
question involved in the trial of the President.
It will be read all . over the land, and clearly
understood by all who read. It will carry an
irresistible conviction with it to all honest
minds, and leaves the Senate without a choice
in the execution of its high and responsible
duty.
Mr. Stevens possesses a mind which, by
nature and by long training, deals little with
small details. Those who are accustomed to
read his speeches in Congress . are familiar
with this peculiarity, and in his argument of
yesterday, he adheres closely to this habit of
mind. Passing by all prolix reference to the
• details of the case, and scarcely touching
many of the questions which have been so
elaborated on both sides, he seizes the central
idea that the chief sworn duty of the Presi
dent of the United States is to .obey the laws
himself and to see that others obey them. He
charges upon the President a willful and per
sistent violation of this duty. He sweeps
away, with contemptuous brevity, the piti- •
ful quibbles and subterfuges to which the
President and his counsel have resorted. He
shows that there arc no precedents for the&
to fall back upon, since the law which he has
so outraged is one created during his own
• administration. He proves that Mr. Stanton
•
,comes fully within the operation of the Tenure
of Office act, and offers the defence the two
horns of a (Normal on that point' between
tin
which there is little choice for them.
the question of the constitutionality of the
law which the President has brok "
StevensS holds the Senate fun:o - sr to the
-• that they have alregea
.ed it, by re
peated votes, and after thorough and re
peated debate, ennfere',ce and deliberation.
Disposing of the 'plea that Johnson only
wished to'test the validity of the
law, Mr., " Stevens denies that such a
plea in, an y way palliates the offence. He
fths':ate, what is true, that there is no author
ity by which the Executive can make himself
- "the obstructor of an unrepealed law."
Mr. Stevens establishes his charge of MlS
prision of official perjetill with Magnifi
cent effect, and then touches briefly, but with
a masterful hand, the charges of usurpation
and corruption. Ile paints with a few bold
dashes a picture of Mr. Johnson's invasion
of the sovereign rights of Congress with start
ling vividness. His continued acts of inter
ference 'with the government of the con
quered rebel States after Congress had de
clared all such acts of his to be null and void,
are proofs of a settled intent to usurp unlaw
fal powers and, upon this charge alone, all
must feel that conviction is the solemn duty
of the Senate. ,
Mr. Stevens had intended to conclude his
speech with an exposition of the corruptions
to which the President has resorted, in thp.,
use of his patronage. 'Upon further conside
ration he seems to have taken pity upon the
Doolittics of the Senate "who contracted to
accept the office of recruiting sergeants for
his shabby army to purchase the position
of a commander of this band of par
,
doned traitors and corrupted renegades." The
omitted portions of his speech were,however,
telegraphed to the country, and will be found
in to-day's BULLETIN. They constitute a fear
ful denunciation of those traitors to their
party and principles, "Doolittle, C man and
that tribe of men." The fearless old states
man and patriot tears the flimsy draperies
away from the corrupt alliances which Mr.
Johnson entered into for his own ambitious
ends, and holds them up in all their naked ug
liness before the Senate and the world. He
strips the recreant Senators of the liveries of
the Republic and clothes them with their
convict' dress,—"the faded uniform of gray."
No one can take' xception to the person
ality of these closing sentences of a speech,
which is in all human probability the final
greateffort of a long life spent in the service
of the public. This honest denunciation of a
corrupt President and his miserable tools
r.4)11103 from a man . who knows them well ;
who hates and abhors hypocrisy and treach
ery; whose tearless discharge of his own
duty may make him intolerant toward men.
._ 'who fail, through lack of moral courage and
• purity of patriotic zeal, in the performance of
their's; who counts all men as his etpiala,none
as his superiors ; who believes Andrew John
• son guilty of the crimes and misdemeanors
with which he is charged ; and whO knows
that he is doing God and his country high
•
service in visiting upon the criminal the just
xeward of his offences. ,
INSTIFIUTIONS AT , "MAIN myth% fix.
The question is now very seriously asked:
do Councils need the permission of the Legis
lature to employ vacant ground belonging to
the city for objects for which it was specially
given by William Penn? It is well known
to our readers that after a large msjority of
Councils directed the dedication of this ground
to the purposes of educational institutions, a
certain number of the members of the Legis
lature, from the interior counties, 'decided to
withhold their sanction (for what it was
worth) from this very excellent plan. When
the ordinance was before Councils, it was
thought better and more respectful to frame
a bill assenting to it on the part of the Legis
lature. This was supposed to be almost a
mere matter of form, and that so evidently
proper a law would pass as a matter of
COMBO.
Others,however,knowing the peculiarities of
our State Legislature, were in favor of having
as little to do with it as possible. They were
over-ruled, however, and a bill was framed
and sent up to Harrisburg by Councils, with
the active co-operation of many of our most
public spirited citizens The city delegation,
to whom, as a committee, was referred the
bill, reported favorably. But the country
members, with their old hostility to the ad
vance of this city, and led .off by a well
known politician, interposed and prevented
the passage of the law. We will venture to
affirm in the most positive - terms that there is
not a city, town, or borough in this entire
state, Philadelphia alone excepted,that would
have been refused such a permission by the
legislature, and that there is not another city
in the :Union that would, by. its State Legisla
ture, have been refused such a law if asked
for.
Many persons believe that, under the terms
of the grant to the city, the city government
has no nee - d.to ask. any consent to what it
shall dolvitlf this ground. And we ask par
ticular attention to the point which we are
about to state. This ground was given by
Penn to the city to be used in any of cer
tain specified ways. Now if this present
proposed disposition of the ground pe of
such, no legislative sanction is needed;
if not of such as contemplated in the
grant, legislative sanction could not
make it good.
We earnestly hope that a plan so excellent
as that which has now been put into shape,
will not be sacrificed at the behest of a few
ignorant country members, incapable of
judging as to whether the proposed move
ment were a good one or not. As to the
view which we here take, to wit, that the
consent of the Legislature is not needed, a
member of that body who voted against the
bill, informed us that he considered the appli
cation. to the Legislature superfluous, and that
the city could appropriate the Square in the
manner proposed, without .needing any ena
bling act from Harrisburg. This, atter all,
is a question for the Courts, and we sincerely
trust that means will be taken to test it
without loss of time. Nothing so conducive
to the permanent prosperity of the city has
been proposed for a long time, and there is no
doubt the more the plan was. examined and
canvaszed, the more it grew in strength and
favor,so that it ended in obtaining the appro
val of almost all our most public-spilited
citizens, and the active aid of many of them.
We trust that these gentlemen will not aban
don &movement that bas received a ell- e ft
a l" rent tha " "L an° their efforts
Hl Vittn „ f= •
Wil: Li to a prosperous conclusion.
Statistics are often valuable, but • some
thoughtless people are carried away by them !
to very absurd conclusions. A writer in the
April number of the Cornhill Jlaga inc,
said to be "An American," furnishes an arti
cle
on two cities, New York and San Fran
cisco, which begins by announcing that New
York contains 726,356 human beings, the fig
ures being apparently derived from the State
census of 1 stts. He goes on to say : "Of
these 720,386 human beings there are :55,().',6
more females than males, It follows, there
fore. that all are not and cannot be married.
Indeed it appears from the last census that
423,121 persons in this city are not married.
The question will be asked, why are these
people in so unnatural and dangerous a con
dition? The answer is most complex, and no
two persons would give the same reply.
Nevertheless the principal reason is precise
ly, because they do not wish to raise the
food they eat."
Perhaps it has not occurred to this philo
sophic statistician that all of these 726,:;81;
human beings were not'of marriageable age ;
that about one hundred ,thousand of them
were under one year old, and nearly half of
them had not reached the age of fifteen. Celi
bacy may be "an unnatural and dangerous
condition" for infants in arms, but is' the
C`Oi:Orii/ writer quite sure that they persist
in being unmarried, because "they do not
wish to raise the food they eat ?" Do not all,
or most of them, "raise their food" by a pro
cess which instinct teaches them,and without
any sensible amount of reasoning as to the
nature of the process, or of the dangerous
nature of their unmarried condition? Have
they not a kind of inductive philosophy,
the practical working of which commences
almost with. their breathing, and which
"raises their food" for them in a very natural
and easy way, and without any of the risks,
the anxieties, the joys and the hopes of love
making and matrimony. Again, is it fair to
conclude that a couple of hundred thousand
New York girls and boys, aged between two
and sixteen years, remain unmarried be
cause they also "do, not wish to raise the
food they eat?" Have they all thus seriously
considered the great questions of marriage
and food-raising, and reasoned themselves
into a resolution of confirmed singleness?
Are.they all so precocious as to have fore_
sworn the happiness of conjugal and paren
tal love . before 'they have thoroughly
master,ed the mysteries of the alphabet and
the more complex mysteries of the multipli
cation table? And is their principal reason
for this that "they do not wish to raise the
food they eat?" The writer candidly says
that no two persons would give the same
reply to the question he proposes. It is
quite certain that not
.another besides him
selfwould give his own reply.
New York is now in the throes of prnpara

moving, and while carmen and furniture-

smashers look forward with delight to their
corning harvest, hapless housekeepers antici
pate yvith fear and trembling the approaching
dny which brings with it the wreck of homes
and the dislocation of everything like domes
tic comfort. This "Pussy-wants-a-corner"
system of changing domicils on a given
day in every year, is peculiarly a New
Yolk institution, and as each tenant
generally goes from bad to worse, from
"frying-pan into the fire" with each move
ment, and with the added infliction of rents
going up as the scale of comfort goes down—
the blissful predicament of house and room
renting in New York may be imagined.
Philadelphia, with its 101,000 dwelling
houses, has no May-day movings. Rents go
up as the value of real estate and the scarcity
of houses increase; but there are no such
long prices for short commons in the way of
homes, as in New York. There is probably
not a large city in the world where so many
housekeepers own their own dwellings as in
Philadelphia, and while this fact insures sta
bility in the character of the population and
gives each housekeeper a direct interest in
the general welfare, as in the careful keeping
of the property which he occupies, it tends
to the encouragement of a good local govern
ment and to the wide and general extension
of the refining influences of well ordered
homes, a, condition of things that is strange to
New York.
DEATH OF A PHILADELPHIA JOITENAIIST.—The
telegraph announces the death of Mr. James
C.
Warner, of this city, at Panama, on the 16th inst.
Mr. Warner was a native of Philadelphia, the son
of Mr. Francis Y. Warner. He has been for
several years past connected with the newspaper
business , of this city-and New York, occupying
positions in the offices of the Pre.is and other'
Philadelphia papers as Cheis editor, and after
wards as one of the correspondents of the New
York World and Tribune. He also conducted
the Chess column of llrilkes's Spirit,
after the retirement of Mr. Marache. He
was well known among the younger generation
of American chess-players as A clever problem
-Ist, and a player of very considerable originality
and strength. He was a young man of much In
tellectual promiSe, and his early death will be
sincerely regretted by a largo circle of friendA
and acquaintances. At the time of his death lie
was in the employ of the New York Tribune, snd
was stationed at Panama as the regular corre
spondent of that paper.

'I ho Trial of Jell Davie..
especial Deepateh to the Philadelphia Evening
been WASH MCI ON, April 28.—Statemnts have been
extensively circulated that the trial of Jeff. Davis
is likely to come off at the next term of the Dis
trict
Court at Richmond. There is no ground
for the billet that such will be the case. It is
true that M. O'Conor, when here a few days
10 ago, had some conversation about the
probabilities of an early trial,' but it is also true
that be neither knows nor learned anything de
finite. This matter is 'dependent upon things
beyond the control of Davia's counsel or
the District Attorney. The question
of further continuance must be decided by the
Attorney-General for the President who may be
in office at that time. it is not likely that Mr.
Browning, on the, part of Mr. Johnson, will
take the responsibility of having the' trial
proceed if • the queetion of the Pre
sident's retention or removal should
still be pending before the Senate. Should John
son go out of office, it will easily be se e n that the
course of action which will be determined on by
his Enceepsor can only be the subject of guess
work. That so important a trial should
not be proceeded with in the first weeks
of the new Prealdent's incumbency seems to be
generally agreed, even if the excitement of a
Presidential canvass and the necessary recon
struction of various departmentsof the Govern
ment do not make it an inconvenient time to
attend to the trial of a State criminal.

Accident on tne Baltimore Railroad—
* ni um Run over and Bitted.
IFrom t"e Wilmington Compatrciol of too 27th.1
The express passenger train on the P., W. and
B. Railroad, which belt this city at 1254 o'clock,
on Saturday night, ran over a man who was sit
ting on the track about, opposite Dr. Brown's, or
nearly midway between this city and New Castle
Junction. The train was stopped and it was
found that the man bad been cut in two at about
the abdomen. A brakeman was sent back for
aid, an engine and car were , sent out and the
mangled remains brought to the depot, where, ou
the tollovving morning, Coroner Bellew held an
inquest on the remains.
The deceased proved to be Morris C. Barrett,
employed on a schooner under command of Capt.
Blizzard, engaged in carrying powder from Du
pont's wharf. He belonged at Magnolia, in Kent
connty, where be leaves a wife and two children;
also a mother and sisters.
He was seen sitting in the south-bound track
by persons on the midnight train coming North.
Persons who saw him at 10 o'clock, bat two
hours before the accident, say that he was per
fectly sober, and those who knew him say ho
was not addicted to the use of strong drink. Let
t( ra on his person show that he has had great
domestic trouble, and It 1.9 thought by many that
he took this terrible method of ridding himself of
a life of which he had grown weary. Captain
Blizzard took care of the body until this morning
when the railroad company forwarded it to Mag
nolia. Deceased was apparently about thirty
years of age. The Coroner's jury renderci a
verdict of accidental death from being run iver
by a locomotive.
Fire in Allegheny, Pa.—Destruction
of a Wiinnery.
(From the Pittsburgh Chronicle of the 27th IM it.]
Fire was discovered at about live o'clock yes
terday morning, in the engine shed of Stackrath
& Co . ,'s tannery, situated in the Seventh Ward,
Allegheny. For some time the fire was confined
to the shed where it originated; but eventually
burst into the lower story of the tannery proper,
which was a two-story frame building, com
paratively new. In here were two barrels of oil
used for dressing leather. These were soon
caught by the flames, and the burning oil spread
ing over the floor, almost instantly filled the •
entire building with flames and smoke. The
building was totally destroyed, together with a
large amount of the stock contained in it. There
were about $50,000 worth of hides, dressed and
undressed, in the establishment. Many of the
dressed skins in the second story were saved,
and a large portion of the others in vats
were •uninjured. There were five hundred
cords of bark stored in the yard, worth
$7,000. This was all destroyed. The building
and the machinery it contained were valued at
$lB,OOO. The total loss, as at present estimated,
will amount to $30.000. On this there is an insu
rance of $20,000, all in home companies. The ,
dwelling of Mr. Henry &lilac, a member of the
firm, adjoins the tannery, and • was slightly
scorched. and the furniture a little damaged by
water, The fire is supposed to have caught from
tke furnace.
About a dozen men of the neighborhood - trent
into the second story of the building, when the
fire was first discovered, for the purpose of get
ting out the dressed hides stored there. The sad
den burst of fire and smoke blinded and half suf
focated them, and they rushed to the windows to
escape. Most of them jumped to the ground,
and in the darkness some jumped upon the
others. That some were not killed Is wonderful.
Another Coup DlEtat by the Erie nail.
road Directors—a esnoval of their
Headquarters to Houton.
(From the limton Elerald of April 27.)
Another grand movement occurred in the Erie
Railway imbroglio on Saturday, which amounts
to a complete coup (TOW on the part of the shrewd
financiers and railway rings Interested in this sin
gular affair.' The announcement was made a few
days since that the Erie party, located in Jersey
City, bad taken up its line of march-from that
city for other latitudes, and that the hotel at
which they had been encamped and guarded by a
cordon of police had been sold. These facts were
not then fully verified,and it was noticed that the
familiar faces of the directors were not seen at their
former favorite haunts In and around Wall street.
It was also noticed that the President of the road
bad not been seen old 'Change. notwithstanding
the announcement that the Erie war was over,
which is probably not the case. The dir4ictora
not'liking the circumscribed limits of their late
temporary residence. and being deprived of the
benefits, pleasures and comforts incident to a re
deuce in a metropolitan city, resolved to change
tht Ir base of operations without allowing certain
• watchful friends on the other side of the river
any knowledge of their contemplated' move
ments. This design was carried out Saturday after
noon, when the directors determined upon Bus
ton as their future headquarters. Their exodus,
under the circumstances, was necessarily per
formed in a quiet manner. The captain of one
of the Sound steamers was prevailed upon to
stop at Jersey City Saturday evening, after leav
ing the regular dock on the way for Boston, and
the distinguished party of railway officers em
barked about G o'clock, the boat immediately
steaming for her eastern destination. The party
arrived here Sunday morning, but kept them
selves secluded during the day. How long the
"exiles" will remain here is unknown to us at
this writing. By this change of base it is said
that certain interested parties have been dream
vented and that some legal trap about to be
sprung has failed to catch the game.

The Ex.Empreen of Mexico Among

General m Mo II al Widow at Court.
illrueeels (April 14) Correspondence of the Louden Poet.)
The royal family are tang daily drives an"'
horse exercise among their loyal subjects, and it
is most touching to see the Empress Carlotta of
Mexico seated in an open carriage, driven by the
Queen, saluting with graceful but sad smiles the
people, whose idol she is and always has been
from• her childhood.
The Empress is looking very pale. and is
dressed In deep mourning. The attention paid
to her by the Queen is beyond all praise, and
there can be no doubt that her recovery from the
mental prostration brought on by the sad events
so well known to every one is chiefly owing to
the energy and devotion of her royal sister-in
law.
The widow of the late General Miramon, the
bosom friend of the late Emperor Maximilian, has
arrived here with her children within the last few
days, with the intention of making Belgium her
permanent home. It is said Mat she has had an
audience at the palace.

While General Schofield was here a few days

than he to learn that the President had nominated

Coroner Daniels testified that he made a post

of Twenty-third and Market streets, and found a
penetrating wound, entering the body below the
kit nipple, between the fourth and fifth rib, and
making a wound in the heart about half an inch
longs the derensPd came to his death in conse
quence of this wound.
Elizabeth Shiftier testified that she resided at
McLaughlin's house, and identified the body
viewed by the Coroner as that of the deceased;
OD the night of February 19th, she heard the
prisoner knocking at the door down stairs, and
looking out the upper window, saw him in the
trvet picking up a stone, with which he beat
upon the door; the deceased - got out of bed and
let him into the house, and said to him.
"Mr. Carey, couldn't you come in by
the side door without disturbing
the neighbors at this time of night?
:nd he replied, "No, not for such a red bead
as vou;" the deceas&l asked him what he had
each - d him, and he repeated the words ; adding,
-Take it out of me. if you can;" the noise of a
scuffle followed, and upon going down stairs,

'McLaughlin; the prisoner said to his wife. "Stand

The Impeachment Trial.
WASHINGTON ' April 28.—When the Court had
been opened in due form, Mr. Sumner said: I
send to the Chair an amendment to the rules of
of the senate upon the trial of Impeachments.
When that bas been read, if there be any objec
tion, I will ask that it go over until the close of
the argument, and take its place with the other
matters which will come up for consideration qt
the time. It was read, as follows:
Whereas, it is provided in the constitution of
the United States that on trials of impeachments
by the Senate no person shall be convicted with
out the concurrence of two-thirds of the mem- •
hers present, bpt this requirement of two-thirds
is not extended to the judgment in such trials,
which remains subject to the general law that a
majority prevails; therefore, in order to remove
any doubt thereupon,
Ordered, that any question whichl may 'arise
with regard to the judgment shall be determined
by a majority of the members present.
Senator Davis objected, and the Chief Justice
said—lt will lie over. To the Managers—The.
Honorable Managers will proceed.
MI. Manager Williams then, at 12.15, resumed
his argument.
After recapitulating his position — oryesMrday,
ho took up the subject of the President's alleged
justification by reason of the advicegiven him
by his cabinet; He held that the President could
not shield himself behind the opinions of his
own creatures, whose sentiments were prompted
by fear of losing their positions. He characterized
the cabinet in its newly appointed functions as
a fungi growth which sought to puke itself a
directory. He argued that if members of the
cabinet were intended to be the framers of our
government, to advise the President on qtestions
of general policy and shield him from responsi•
bility for his actions, they would have been made
independent of his control.
He claimed that the President had failed to
show any sufficient cause for his desire; to re
move Mr. Stanton. True, he - was a thorn in his
side, but so.was Congress and so was Grant and
every loyal man.
Air. Williams held that the removal of a meri-
tollous °Meer from motives of personal dislike
was of itkelf suftleient warrant fol. impeadttment.
He referred to the President's failure to com
mence legal proceedings, which he maintained
would not bare suited his purpose to have an
interregnum, when his own will would be su
preme.
lip awn have a satirical and humorous descrip-
don of the conduct of General Thomas on the
, 21si and leo ut February, including his appear
ance at o the masquerade ball, with regard to the
defence set up by the President that he has the
right to resist and bring to judicial decisions
laws he considered unconstitutional. Mr. Wil
liams maintained that no provisions of the
Coe sitution required such judicial con
fermation, and that extreme cases of clearly
unconstitutional laws are not supposable. He
would admit that the Senate is now sitting as a
court, but it was a court holding exclusive juris
diction, which couldLdecide this whole matter ac
cording, to its own idea, guided by,but not hound
by, precedent and law.
Mr. Williams then argued that the suspension
of Mr. Stanton was made under the Tenure of
Office law, which the President thereby mom
nixed.
He then maintained that the averment of evil
Intent was not necessary in this case. As in all
others, it was inferred from the act Itself. Com
paring the conduct of Johnson with that of
James 11., he said it only now remained whether
the parallel be completed. He contended that
safety of the people, the supreme law was the
only law by which this case should properly he
tried. It was belittled by trivia and impertinent
legal technicalities,and he besought the Senate to
take the larger view.
In regard to the 11th article, ho had not the
heart to dwell upon the disgraceful conduct
which formed its subject. If the President, like
his counsel, made merry over It, he coull only
say that "Nero fiddled while Rome was burning,"
and that one culprit would find in the Senate a
censor more stern than Cato.
In conclusion, he said the result of the trial
would determine whether the President or the
Senate would go down, and, depleting a series of
fearful consequences which be said would follow
from acquittal, contrasted them with a glowing
picture of peace, prosperity and happiness to
result from the President's conviction.
The Senate then took a recess.
Railroad Accident.
Pirrsittwn, April '2B.—The Brady's Bend ac
commodation train on the Allegheny Valley Rail
road, near Burning Well, jumped the track and
