Thursday, May 14, 1868. JOHNSON'S DEFENDERS. Here and there is to be found a newspaper, nominally Republican in politics and very respectable in its literary position, laboriously engaged in the hopeless task of constructing apologies for the acquittal of Andrew John son by the votes of renegade Republican senators. Two of these, by virtue of their prominence, deserve notice. The Cincinnati Conuncreial is, in many respects, one of the ablest papers of the West, and in its literary aspect probably the very best. On political and national ques lions, however,it Is fond of assuming a mildly conservative tone, and in its discus sion of the present • situation at Washington, this mildness reaches the I point frequently exprissed by the phrase "milk and water." It assumes that, because Chase, Trumbull and Fessenden are dis tinguished lawyers, their desertion of the Republican party in this great national crisis must not be called treachery. This the main idea of an elaborate leader in Tuesday's paper, and it is an idea based upon an utter ly false, though very common sentiment. For it is not to be supposed that these men are any more accomplished lawyers now than they were a few weeks ago, when those of them who are Senators stood openly committed to the law which they now seek to dishonor and break down. When these :'distinguished lawyers" are found employing their transcendent talents upon both sides of a case, it brings them down to the same level with ordinary mortals, and leaves them to be judged by the same rule, and so the people ; will judge them. That is a very common and a very bad I sentiment which gives names to crimes, not ' according to the deed done but ac - I cording to the rank and social posi tion of the doer. There is a great need for a more general calling of things by their right names, and in the case now before the country, if Mr. Chase is the secret leader of ! this dark plot, as is daily growing more ap parent, then Mr. Chase must accept the same title that would belong to him if he did the same thing as a corrupt 'member of a State Legislature, or of some rotten municipal "ring." Messrs. Fessenden and Trumbull cannot offset perjury and treachery by an ap peal to their wonderful legal abilities. The plea Will be scouted by all honest men. "He that cloeth righteous- ness is righteous," and not he whose learning and public eminence ought to make him righteous. Fessenden or Trumbull or Chase must each "go to his own place," just as Grimes or Fowler or Henderson, or any other traitor to sworn duty and principle. The New York Evening Post is more open in its opposition to the conviction of Andrew Johnson. It is terribly unhappy be cause the thunders of public opinion have been let loose upon the heads of the men who have proved faithless in the •Senate. It is sorely exercised because. from al parts of the country the voice of the people demands that 'these men shal stand by their own record and the principles which they were sent to Washington to re present. It calls this "coercing a court," and professes to think that there will be no moral weight in a verdict of conviction under these circumstances. It advises the "Court," by which it means the Senate, to acquit John son, with a censure for his conduct, which even the Post thinks has been "ill-advised and disgraceful," quite forgetting that the "Court" has no authority under the Consti tution to do anything of the sort. The attitude of the Evening Post is not a "milk and water" one. It is one of down right hostility to the Republican party, and of complicity with Andrew Johnson. Its argument about the moral weight ,of a con viction amounts to nothing. For what "moral weight" would there be in an ac quittal of Andrew Johnson, secured by the ,success of a corrupt plot, concocted by men 'who have gone in'and out among their col (leagues as friends while they were covenant ing with their enemies for such considerations as were most tempting to their respective minds, to betray the country and its great cause into the hands of Andrew Johnson? These apologists for political treachery fail to grasp the real tone and sentiment of the people as completely as the recreant Sena tors themselves have done. They forgot that this as the case of the people against an f usurping President and that , the people w ill assuredly judge it for themselves. Nay, they hive already judged:it, and the storm of indignation that haa already muttered its first thunders is only the faint,and distant fore-runner of the tem pest that will sweep these men into a swift destruction, If they have the hardihood to consummate the crime which they have plotted. A NEW PARTY. Among the remarkable announcements Hof the last day or two is one telegraphed on from INtu3hington that the traitor Senators left the Senate after its adjournment on Mon day, and . went in a body to dine with Mr. Chase, there to lay the foundation of a new party of which Mr. Chase was to be the leader and the prospective President of the country. Whether this statement is true we do not know, and care very little. It is sufficient that the conduct of all the parties implicated, Messrs. Chase, Pessenden, Trumbull, Hen: demon, Grimes, &c., has been such as to ren der it possibia for such stories to gain belief. Xut the point that iu nost striking in the whole matter ' and which induees us to refer to it here. is the utteoinfathation of the par ties concerned. These men, after haying appeared, dressed in a little brief authority for a certain time beford the publie,come to think that they are great powers in the State, fitted both to sway public opinion and to make it. In this lies the conspicuous absurdity of their present conduct. They are regarded by the public as simply agente; agents trusted in deed with power to act in matters of the most momentous importance, but still strictly as agents, and as such held responsible, step by step, for their conduct. As to the idea of these men swaying opinion,fonnding new parties and controlling ideas, they might just as well attempt to control the wind, and order it to blow North or South. The governing political element in this country is now the Republican party. That party has a definite policy, and when those persons whom that party has placed in power see fit to sell themselves for place or still worse for money, the party that elected them will cast them out with scorn and derision.. It is absolutely ludicrous to see these men fanCying that they can divide or reorganize a great party: one would suppose that the futile attempts of such other rene gades as Johnson,Doolittle,Dixon,and Cowan would have sufficiently indicated the fate that awaits new apostates. In fact, the past few years have , greatly altered the tendency of our people. For merly names had great influence, and when Clay or Webster threw themselves into a line of policy, they carried great numbers with them. This sort of thing has passed away, fortunately, and public men are no longer or acles, but agents. We know what we want; we do not send men to Washington to find out what is to be done ; we know that at least as well as they, and we send them there to do it. And when they fail to do the duty for which they are sent, or do it badly, we cast them aside without a second thought, just aS'ive learned to cast aside inefficient gen erals in the war. Who is Mr. Chase ? A fair lawyer,who, as a statesman, as Secretary of the Treasury, and as Chief Justice has evinced decided talents, but not greater than those of hundreds of other leading Republi cans. Who is Mr. Trumbull? A good speaker and an able lawyer (and of such we have in the country rather too many than too few), but who,if he were to resign to-mor row,would never once be missed to public af fairs. So Fessenden lost his usefulness when he gave himself up to bark at the heels of another Senator with whom he had quar relled. And are these men going to arrest public opinion and speak in the name of the United States ? This is but one step from the tailors of Tooley street and th c cir "We, the people of England 1" In one respect the people of this country have been utterly, thoroughly wrong. They have shown a most culpable leniency to wards public offenders. The man who de serts the constituents who elected him in their hour of extreme, need is not adequately punished with loss of political influence. Contempt should follow him into private life, and he should be shunned personally as one who has violated the most sacred of pledges, who has betrayed those who trusted him and who bad elevated him to, station and power. For such a man to retire into pri vate life with the price of his infamy,and yet 1 to be able to retain even a portion of his per sonal influence and position, is wholly wrong. In having in the past permitted such things, even to the extent td which they have been permitted, the American people have done a wrong from which they now suffer; for did these Senators now know to a certainty that a treachery such as is now threatened would cause them to be scorned and shunned in private life, there is not one who would dare to complete that treason. DIRTY S "BEETS AND THEIR CON. SEQUENCES. New York is paying the • penalty of an almost utter disregard for the rules of clean liness and decency. The Times of that city, in a disquisition upon the subject of dirty streets, says that in the First Ward, where the population is most dense, a stranger would infer that the contractor was paid to keep the streets dirty rather than to cleanse them. As a consequence of this gross neglect the mortality reports show that the death-rate in this filth-ridden Ward is 411 per thousand, while the average of the entire city is 27k. "The population of this Ward," says the last annual report of the Board of Health, "die of diarrhccal disorders and other diseases whirl/ riot in filth." It might have I gone farther and said that the miasma that is bred or reeking gutters and piles of de caying garbage does not stop for Ward limits; but it invades Broadway, Fifth avenue and the "up-town" streets, smites the fair cheek of Flora McFlimsey as she rolls along in her luxurious carriage, gives her aristocratic Pa such unpleasant sen sations as instigate him to send for his lawyer and the family physician, and, in short, raises • the average death-rate of the entire city. If it were not for the peculiar absorbing nature of the soil of the lower part of Manhattan Island, and for the frequent sea-breezes which sweep over the city, New York would almost constantly be as unhealthy as New Orleans is in the fever season. But even sea-breezes and a, receptive soil are not sufficient offsets for such localities as the First Ward, and Go tham has to pay the dread penalty of filthy highways. Philadelphia, although more favored than New York, still offers a wide field for the broom of the scavenger, and the exertions of the municipal reformer. City CounciLs,before which the question of cleans ing will come this afternoon, should be ad monished by the experience of New York, and notymit for the death-rate to get up to the New York figure before insisting that contractors in this important department of the public service shall promptly and dil e iently perform their duty. The master bricklayers of this city held meeting, last evening, to take action concern ing the apprentice-restricting regulations of the journeymen, and a copy of their resolves will be found upon the inside pages of the BULLBTIN of to-day. The resolutions, al 'though temperate in their tone, set forth very clearly and emphatically the evils resulting from the blindly selfish policy of the journey men, and they should influence them to aban- THE PATIN EVENING BULLETIN-PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY, MAY 14, 1868. 4 don their system of arbitrary interference with the business of the emiiloyers. There is one thing that trades' unions cannot be made to understand until the conviction is foteed upon them by practical experience ; this one thing is the fact that demand will inevitably bring about a corresponding supply, and that if the native market will not furnish this sup ply it will be obtained from abroad, and the effect of the non-apprentice system has already been to stock certain trades almost exclu sively with foreign workmen; trades which twenty-five years ago were in the hands of skillful Americans. If the foreign workman, resident among us, were equally competent as the native born, it would make but little real difference to the community at large; but it does make a very wide difference where our American youth have to lead lives of en forced idleness, while Irishmen, Englishmen, Frenchmen and Germans cross the sea in swarms to fill the places which they should occupy. This opposition upon the part of journeymen to the taking of apprentices is about as unwise and as bootless as the old opposition to the introduction of machinery and scarcely less stupid than the exploit of Mrs. Partington in her en deavor to sweep away from her door the rising tide of the Atlantic. The rules of trades' unions are of no more ultimate ac count than the broom of the old woman in stemming the water's progress ; but men who are engaged in doing foolish things may Incidentally do a great deal of mischief, and it is thus with the associations which are depriving an entire generation of youth of the opportunity to become good and useful citizens. In this view of the case the evil calls for a more prompt and active cure than will be furnished by the regular operation of the laws of trade. Quite a little parade ill made of Senator Henderson's telegram to St. Louis, in answer to a very direct question whether he would vote for the eleventh article of impeachment. Such a straight-forward question addressed to ordinary, honest men, would receive a prompt and categorical reply. A single word, "Yes" or "No," would answer every purpose, and save trouble and expense.. But Mr. Hender son dodges the question, and sends a "glitter ing generality' about "doing his duty as an honest man," &c. There is a savor of. Pecksniff about Mr. Henderson's telegram, and we shall wait to believe in the purity of his intentions when we see how he votes.

PROBABILITY OF CONtICTION Vessenden's F.xcuse. THE APPROPRIATION BILLS. The Impending Verdict. Special Despatch to the Philadelphia Evening Ballettni Wirtnintotos, May lA.—Considerable anxiety has been felt at the sickness of several Senators,' and the doubts surrounding the verdict in the impeachment case have been increased by the uncertainty of all the members of the Court being able to appear in the Senate Chamber on Satur day. Senator Howard Is much better this morn ing, and,Conkling,who has been seriously ill since the adjournment of the Court, is also much better. Grimes, who was attacked with paralysis yesterday, Is not serious, and the prospect now is that a full vote can be had at 12 o'clock on Saturday. The delay is believed to have strengthened the Impeachment cause. Letters, telegrams and copies of resolutions adopted by meetings of their constituents have been pouring in upon Senators who are supposed to be wavering and to Re publican members of the House. Thad. Stevens is confident that his 11th article, at least, cannot be defeated. The President and his friends, who ilhve been confident of aequittal. are known to, have been far less sanenine last night The Approprigithon BM. (Special Despatch to the Philadelphia Evening BonethLi VAbIILNIGTON, May 14.—The House Committee on Appropriations have finished their work upon the Indian bill, and it will be reported to-day if an opportunity offers. The whole amount ap propriated is $2,214,283, about one third less than the aggregate of last year. The Secretary's estimates called for st 3,240.152. The same Committee will finish the Deficiency bill, which is nearly completed, at their meeting to-morrow, and report it at once to the House. The work of the session, so far as appropriation is concerned, is nearly done, and if the session is prolonged it will be upon questions of finance. Senator ressencienN ,trgament. Wssitisi . :Tos May 11.—During the secret session of the Senate on Monday, Senator Fcssen den delivered a long speech on the Impeachment question,in which he defined his position. He quoted the provisions of the Constitution giving the President the right to appoint, and instanced the case of the removal of Timothy Pickering by the elder Adams, as an instance of the constitutional construction and the practice under the laws. He said It has bean argued that even if this right of removal by the President may be supposed to exist during the roces3 of the Senate, it is otherwise when that body is in session. I am unable to see the grounds of this distinction or to find any grounds for this distinction. The Constitution nsakee no such distinction. as It says nothing :about removals, Ysequent instances have oc curred where the President thought proper to re move an officer at once before sending the name of his successor, and prior to the act of March 2d, 1867, I found never his right to do so seriously questioned. He says, judging from the short experience we have had under the law Of 1867. the supervisory power of the Senate over removals is purely calculated to secure a prompt and vigorous correctionlof abuses in of fice, especially upon the modern claim that when offices are of a local character, the representative has a right to designate the officer, under which claim,this branch of executive authority, Instead of being lodged where the constitution placed it, passes to one of the legislative branches of the government. He next considers the removal of Mr. Stanton, and says that before the passage of the Civil Tenure of Office act the President had clearly the right to remove him, and argued that the case of Secretary Stan ton did not come under that act, because ho had never been appointed by President Johnson, arguing that as he was appointed by President Lincoln he merely held the office under sufferance and was liable to removal at any time. lieconclu des his argument on the subject as follows: As Hr. Stanton was appointed to hold during the plea sure of the President for the time being, and his tenure was not affected by the act, of March 2d, 1867, the President had a right CO remove him from office on the 21st of February, 1868, and consequently cannot be held guilty under the first article, and even if I were - not satisfied of the construction given herein of the act of 1867, I should 'still hesitate to convict of a high misdemeanor for what was • done on • the 21st of February, 1868, because it was the mere issuing of a written order, and failed in accom plishing the act intended, and it would be an abuse of power to depose the President on the part of the Senate, which could not be justified to the country or the world. With regard to the letter of authority to Gen. Thomas he con cludes that as the President had a legal right to remove Mr. Stanton, he had a right to designate Gen. Thomas to discharge the duties of the office ad interim. Alluding to the speeches of the President in re lation to Congress, ho asks is the President alone excluded from the privilege' of expressing his opinions of the constitution of a particular Con grestqandlof denouncing its acts as encroachments upon constitutional rights and the fundamental principles of government. In process of time there might possibly be a Congress which would be wetly liable to the severe criminations of a resident. In such a case is he to remain silent, and is he forbidden by the Constitution on pains of removal from office to warn the people of the United States of their danger. If he believed his structures to be true he had a perfect moral right to speak; if he did not, his offence :is against good morals, and not against any human law. There lamothlng in these words to prove t,he allegation that the President's intent in speak ing, thorn was to impair and destroy the respect of the people for Congress, or the laws by it duly and constitutionally enacted, or to Est aside its rightful authority and powers. He has not been able to discover any measure or throats against Congress unless theyoire found in the declaration that he would Veto their measures. The speeches at Cleveland and St. Louis, though higWr objectionable in style, and unbecoming a PreEdent, afford nothing to justify the allegation that they, were menacing towards. Congress or VI the laws of the country. In considering the 11th article, he says that however objectionable and reprehensible the claims of the President might be, ho cannot be convicted of a high misdemeanor for asserting an uricOnstitutional doctrine If he has made no attempt to give it practicable effect. In closing, he states that it is evident that the offence for which a Chief Magistrate is removed from office, and the power entrusted to him by the people transferred to other hands, and espe cially Where the the hands which receive it aro to be the same which take it from him, should be of such a character as to commend itself to the minds of all right thinking men as beyond all question an adequate cause. It should be free from the , taint of party, leave no reasonable ground,of suspicion upon the motives of ' those ' who inflict the penalty, and address itself to the country and- the 'civilized ' .world as, a measure jufffly b,fthe• gravity of the crime and the necessity of its punishment.

A Florence correspondentreports the reappear ance of brigandage in the neighborhood of Ros sano (Calafirla Citerioro). band,of which nothing bas beez.',heard for some time, made a haul of some Meaty persons at a village called Sealaretta. The captives were carried off into the wood until they reached Guardia where the band made a halt. n bad been determined 'to make an example' of two of the poor wretches. The victims were named Falcone and Berra. The brigands and their captives formed a circle round the place of execution. Falcone was to suffer the first, the office of beadsman devolving on a man named Salvatore Caravetta, who, at a signal given by the captain, stepped within the fatal ring armed with a gleaming cutlass. 'Tore' war ogly reminded the eyes of all the band were upon him, and that it behoved him to show that his right hand bad not lost its cunning during the repose of the winter recess. "Jealous of his fame, Tore seized rioor Fal cone by the hair, and severed the head from the body in two blows, amid the encouraging shouts of his comrades. 'The head was then flung over the mountain side, and speedily bounded away out of sight. Now came ,Serra's turn, and the same reeking instrument of death was handed over to another ruffian, one Plattiti. Serra threw himself upon his knees, by turns imploring mercy and recommending his soul to Heaven. A stroke from the cutlass was the only answer to his en treaties; but,whether from a refinement of cruelty or from awkwardness, the blow had to be re peated ten times, and still without putting an end to the sufferings of the helpless victim. "'Derided by the other brigands,' says the nar rater, l'izzuti threw himself like a famished beast upon the body of the still breathing Serra, plunzieg a dagger into every part of his'oody. It was the most terrible scene ever witnessed, hut with all this Serra was not yet dead. At last the eaptain saw fit to interfere, and a revolver dis charged in the ear of the mutilated wretch brought the dreadful proceedings to a close. The other prisoners were then set at liberty.' "It is needless to acid that these - facts have spread consternation through the whole province. We have, furthermore, the news of two encoun ters with brigands, with the capture or surren der of four others. In another part of the coun try two presented themselves of :heir own ac cord, to !has, ndie of San Vittare." STATE OF TUE THERMOMETER TEDB DAY AT THE BULLETIN OFFICE. lu A. deg. II M. Weather clear.

DIXON FEARS THE RESULT. THE POSITION OF HENDERSON. THE PRESIDENT UNCOMFORTABLE EATER CABLE NEWS. State of the Markets. Waiting for the Verdict. (Special Despatch to the Phila. Evening Bulletin 3 WASHINGTON,' play li.—There is the same earnest feeling this afternoon in regard to im peachment which has existed for the past week. The excitement is as great as at any time, al though not so open and violent. The news last evening that senator Grimes had be,en stricken with paralysis created a pro found sensation and caused a great deal of com ment. The impeachment men are confident this after noon that the 11th article, at least, is flare to go through by 38 votes. The friends of the President are not as certain this. morning of his acquittal as yesterday or day previous. Senator Dixon expressed his fears this morn ing to your correspondent that, the delay in the vote on impeachment would be sure to result ih the President's conviction. He said he was less sanguine to-day tLan he had been at any time, during the last two weeks. This feeling extends to many other of the President's friends, who have heretofore been among those who were equally as confident ag Senator Dixon. A gentleman who had an interview with the President at quite a late hour last night, says his conversation indicated that he was by no means sure that the Senate would acquit him on all the articles. Senator Henderson, having given the Missouri delegation to understand that be would resign if he coul(P , not support the eleventh article, and not up to the present time having presented his resignation, the delegation believe it is his in tention to support that article. This fact has served to strengthen the cause of impeachment, while depressing the President's friends. A rumor was extensively circulated this morn ing that there had been a'caucus of the renegade Republican Senators at the residence of Chief Justice Chase, last evening, but inqui,y fails to substantiate the truth of the statement.

"These synods had repudiated the liberal and conservative por tion of the general synod, and were aiming at the symbolic and the ritualistic. The withdrawing Synods had brought false ac cusations against the General Synod and were re sponsible to God for their acts.
