The Impeachment Trial.
;pedal Despatch to the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin.]
WASIIINGTON, May 5.--Mr. Bingham in contln.
nation said: Every bill which shall 'nisi Con
gress, with or without the Preildent's consent, is
a law. It is in vain to say that only constitu
tional laws are binding. That can only be decided
by the Supreme Court. The laws must be pre
sumed to be binding until otherwise adjudged by
competent authority. Why do the President's
counsel claim that he may adjudge every law?
Censider, from the operations of the President'
mind hitherto, what will be its operations if this
claim to decide upon the validity of all laws i
now conceded by you. He Is capable of much
originality in this Iway. May . be not think
that every statute of yours infringes upon some
prerogative of his? This is the discretion which
clothes the Executive with more than kingly
prerogative. It places the servant above the mas
ter, the created above the creator. The laeopk will
never submit to such an usurpation. They know
that an Executive is created to execute the laws
and nothing else. • The counsel need not talk
about the clanger to flow from the omnipotence
of Congress. The managers have not claimed
omnipotence for Congress. What meaning is
there in this term ? What does the omnipo
tence of Congress mean, when Con
gress is a creature of the people and come
from the people afresh every two years ? It is
not like a Parliament of a long duration in a
hereditary monarchy. If Congress grasps too
much power, in God's name let them answer for
it Let them answer, as they must, to the people,
and not to the PreSident.
It was well to intimate that these articles of
impeachment were conceived in a spirit of hate
It was inammadvertant upon the Senate in Court
iu not concurriuc , with hie action in regard to the
Department (4,-Wer, to insinuate that such
action unfitted them to sit in judgment upon this
case.
Mr. Bingham then recited different charges of
violation of the Constitution and the Civil Ten
ure-et-office bill, conspiring to prevent the exe
cution of the acts of Congress, &c. Th.:se several
crime& are impeachable. The Constitution make-
biro amenable for maladministrations. Are these
violations of the law, this maladministration,
these high crimes and misdemeanors? It Is op
posed that if the facts were found as charged the
President cannot be punished, because he has a
right to construe the laws. There is no vested
power in the President over the Tenure of Wiles
beyond the power of Congress.
His only power's jointly with the gduate, and
depends exclusively npoa the provisions of the
.existing law. No distinction between the Wilco
and the person who holds its will avail. The
ipubble is settled by the act of 1867.
Mr-Bingham red from the Civil Tenure bill and
explained its provisions.
£here is no escape from the provisions of this
law. It cannot be urged that heads of depart
mt appointed by Mr. Lincoln are c Yeepted by
tl a act. When the Senators may have said that
it Mr. Stanton refused to resign they would con
sr to his removal, the facts had not developed
themselves which made it necessary that the
War Office should remain in his control. r.
But the President is conclusive as to Mr. Stan
ton's being included by this ease, for he him
self issued an order suspending him
under this very act. He quotes
the words of the statute when be suspended
him. lie thquglat he was within the statute when
he reported to the Senate that he had not revolted
the suspension. Ills letter to Secretary Meo.ll
- was a furl an' recognition of the fact that
Mr. Stanton was within the provisions of this
The President cannot plead error of judgment
+when he said to hitnself—"l will disobey the law if
Ine Senate non-concur and then sit in judgment
on it. The crime charged against hill) in the

no justification that Mr. Stanton bad become dis
qv N lined according to the terms of the low.
Mr. Bingli a in' spoke with distinctness and offeet;
and was followed With marked attention both by
the Senators and the oppoamg counsel. Measrs.
Groeabeck and Evarts followed every word with
evident interest: ' •
Mr. Bingham announced that he expected to
finish to-day. At , quarter past two the Senate
took a recess.
Mr. Bingham after , the recess, began byOulo
gizing the character , and public services of
E. M. Stanton. Ile said he agreed with the
counsel on one point, that unconstitutional law
was no law,but it is not void for Congress,for the
Executive, for the courts or for the people, until
decided to be unconstitutional in the mode and
manner provided by law. •
Mr. Bingham. finding that his increasinn
hoarseness would. make it fatiguing to close dur
ing the day, concluded to take arrhour and a half
to-morrow in summing up. In continuing his
argument be said the President knew that If he
prevented Mr. Stanton from renewing the func
tions of his office it would be impossible for the,
ousted Secretary to test the law. Any bov
should know that. This pretence of the Presi
dent's that the object was to test the law is an
afterthought. He had already avowed that his
object was to keep Mr. Stanton out. If he had
.been kept out, the question could not have been
got into the courts.
I.OOItIIFSPONITENOE Oh Tll is ASSOCIATED PEES3,I
The President himself had acknowledged as
much by susendinStanton under the act. No
where else is p the power of suspension given him.
Even the wording of his message was borrowed
in part from the language of this act, and the
excuse was an after -thought to cover up his vil
lainy. Be held that the President was' responsi
ble for having abused the power granted him by
the set to suspend Stanton, without alleging that
or proving that the latter had become disqualified
in any way from exercising his duties. The
court then took a recess.
