    rich country, the richest iii natural resort!,
ces the world % ever saw, is worse than
lost, if it, be not soon placed under the
protection of it free - constitution. Instead
of being as it oughtto be, • a source of
wealth and power, it. will become an in
tOrerriblebtheien to the-vest of the nation.
Anotler.evaann for retracing our steps
will douleiee: be see; by Congress in the
late manifest at ior sof public opinion up
on this subject. We live in a country
where p.lpulnr will always enforces oho
dierce to iteelf, Fortner -or later. It is
vain-to think of opposing... it with any--
t hinte Short, of lege] authority, backed by
firer wheltering fin ce. It-cannot -have es
caped your attention that, from the day
on which .Cun s e'ress ,fairly and formally
presented the proposition to govern the
Southern Stat.ee by militaryforce, with a
view to the Ultimate establishment of ne
grt su-pre tency, every expression of the
general sent intent has been more or less
adverse to it. The affections of this gen
eration cannot be detached from the in•
stitutions of their ancestors. Their de
termination to 'preserve the inheritance
of free government in their own hands
and transmit, undivided and unimpaired,
to elsesir-own posterity, is ton strong to be
enecesstitlly opposed. Every weaker ;
passion will disappear before that love of
hherly sad law for which the American '
people are distinguished above all others
in the world.
How far the duty of the President "In
preserve, protect, and defend the Consti
tution" requires him to go on in oppos
ing an unconstitutional act of Congress,
is a very serious and important question,
on which I have deliberated much and
felt extremely anxious to reach a proper
conclusion. Where au act has been
passed according to the forms of the
Constitution, by the supreme legislative
authority, and is regnlarly entered among
the•public statutes of the country, Exec
wive restraint to it, especially in time of
high party excitement, world be likely to
produce collision between the respective
adherents of the two branches of the gov
ernmerv. This would be simply civil
war, and civil war must be resorted to
only as the last remedy for the worst of
ev ils. Whatever might tend to provoke ;
it should be most carefully avoided, '
faithful and conscientious magistrate will
concede very much to honest error, and
something even to personal malice, before
he will endanger the public peace, and he
wi.l not adopt forcible measures, or such
aq tnight lead to force as long as those
which are peaceable remain open to him
or to his constituents.
It is true

which the Executive would be compelled

ENORIV)I. - 5 FRAUDS
It is well and publiely known that
enormous frauds have been perpetrated
• on •the Treasury, and that colossal for.'
tunes have been made at the public ex
pense ; this species of corruption has in
creased, is increasing, and if not ditnin
i4hed, will soon bring us into total ruin
ant dtsgrace. The public creditors 'and
the tax-payers are alike interested in
h me , t admittigtration of the finances,
and neither class will endure the high
''fratul.-d robberies that have already oc
curred. For this discreditable state of
things there arc several causes. Some of
the taxes are so laid as to present. an ir
. t.esistable temptation to evade payment.
Th..-o . r eat slims which officers may' win
e
by connivance at fraud, create a pressure
which is more than the virtue of money
can withstand, and .there can be no doubt
" that the open disregard of constitutional
• obligations avowed by some of .theibigh
• e=t lull most influential men in the coun
try, has weakened the moral sense of
those who serve in subordinate places.
The expenses of the United States, in
cluding interest on the public debt, are
more than six 6111(41 as much as they' were
'seven years ago. To Collect and disburse
this vast amannt requires careful snper•
vision as well as systematic vigilance.—

] am entirely persuaded, that under such
a tide the President cannot perform the
great duty n4Sirrneli to him, of seeing the
law faithfully executed, and that it dis
ables him more e.peciall y from enforcing
that rid ac 000ntabili!y is neves

'The .Constitntion invests the President
Stith anthoriiy to• decide whether a re.
moval shall be mnde.in any given case;—
the net otCongreSe, declares in substance
that I'm shall only accuse such .as he sup
poses unworthy of their trust.. The Con
stitution makes him the sole judge in the
premises; - but the statute takes away his
jurisdiction, transfers it to the Senate,
and leaves him nothing but the odious,
and sometimes impracticable duty of be
coming a pOsecntor. The prosecution is
to be conacted before a tribunal whose
members are not, like him responsible to
the whole r eople, but to separate constit
uent bodies, and'who may hear his nem
cation with great disfavor. The Senate
is absolutely without any known stand
ard of decision applicable to such a case.
its judgment cannot be anticipated, for it
is not governed by any rule.
The law does not define what shall be
deemed good cause for removal ; it.is im
possible even to conjecture what may or
may not be so considered by the Senate.
The nature of the subject forbids clear
proof. It the charge be incapacity, what
evidence will support it ? Fidelity to
the Constitution may be understood or
misunderstood in - a thousand different
ways; and by violent party men, in vio
lent, party times, unfitithfulness to the
Constitution may even come to be con
sidered meritorious. If the officer be ac
ensed of dishonesty, how shall it be made
out? Will it be interred-from acts un
connected with public duty, from, private
history, or from general reputation ? Or
must the President await the commission
of an actual misdemeanoi. in office ? Shall
he, in the meantime, risk the character
and interest of the nation in the hands of
men whom he cannot give his confidence ?
Must he forbear his complaint until the
mischif is done and cannot be prevent.
ed ? If hie zeal in the public service
should impel him to anticipate the overt
act, must he move at the peril of being
tried himself for the offense of slander
ire, his subordinates ?
In the present circumstances of the
country, some one must be held responsi
b'e for official delinquen e ey of every kind.
is extremely difficult`to say where that
;f , hrw r nt
left where it has been placed by t e Con
stitution L • hut all just men will admit
that the President ought to he entirely
relieved from such responsibility if he
cannot-meet it by reason of restrictions
placed by law upon his action. The unre
stricted power of removal from office is a
very great one to be trusted even to a
magistrate chosen by the general suffrage
of the wholveoplo, and accountable di
rectly to them for his acts. It is un
doiibtedy liable to abuse and at some
periods of our history, perhaps has been
abused.
if it be thonght desirable and constitu
tional that it should be so limited as to
make the President merely a common in
fernier against other public agents, he
should at least be permitted to act in tit-A
capacity before some open tribunal, inde
pendent of party politics, ready to inves
t agate the merits of every case, furnished
the means of taking evidence, and
bound to decide according to established
rules. This would guarantee the safety
of the accuser when he acts in good faith,
!and at thesamoime secure the rights of
the other party, I speak, of coarse, with
all proper respect for the present Senate ;
but it does not seem to me that any leg
islativ.e body can be so constituted as to
insure its fitness for these functions.
It is not; the theory of this gozernmr.T.t
that public offices are the property of !
those who hold them. They are given
merely as a trust for the public benefit,
sometimes fur a fixed period, sometimes
during .good behavior; ba generally
they are liable to be terminated at the
pleasure of the' appointing power, which
represents, the collective majesty and
speaks the will of the people. The fore
ed retention la office of a single dishonest
person may work great injury to the pub
lic interests. The danger to the pubic
Service comes• not from, the power to re
move, but *ern the power to appoint ;
therefore, it was that the framers of the
Constitution left the power of removal
uttrestricte'd, while they gave the Senale
a right to reject:, all -appointments which,
in its opinion, wets' not fit to be made.

Legislation for the accomplishment of
a result so desirable is demanded by the
highest public considerations. The Con
stitution contemplates that the circulating
medium of the country shall he uniform
in value and quality. At the time of the
format ion of that instrument the country
had just emerged front the war of the
Revolution, and was suffering from the
existence of a redundant and worthless
currency.
The sages of that period were aniions
to protect their posterity from the evils
which they themselves had experienced
Hence, in providimr '
a circulating medi
um, they conferred upon Congress the
power to coin money and regulate the
valu e thereof, at the same time prohibit
ing the States from, making anything but
gold and silver a tender for the payment'
of debts. The anomalous condition of our
currency is in striking contrast`with that
which was originally designed. Oar eir
ciliation now embraces—first, notes of the
national banks, which are made receivable
fur all (hies due the government, exclud
ing imports, and by all its creditors, ex
cepting payment of interest upon its
bonds and the securities themselves: 2d,
,1113 unite d
States, and which the law recriires shall
be received As well in payment of ad debts
between citizens as of all government dues
excepting imports ; and 3.1, gold and sil
ver coin. By the operation of our pres
ent system of finances, however, the me
talii when ooilected is reserved
only for one class of gevernment
creditors, who, holding its blinds, semi
annually receive their interest in coin
from the national treasury. •
They arc thus made to occupy an invid
ious position which may be used to
strengthen the argutnents of those who
would bring into disrepute the obliga
tioris of the nation. In the ment of
all its debts, the plighted faith of th egov .
eminent shwa d be inviolably maintained.
But while it aets with justice towards the
bondholder who loaned his . money that
the integrity of the Union might be pre
served, it should, at the same time ob
serve good faith with the great mass of
the people wht2 having rescued the Un
ion from the 'Mrill of invasion, now bear
the burdens of taxation that the govern
ment may be able to fulfill its engage
ments.
There is no reason which will be accep
ted as satisfactory by the people why
those who defend us on the land and pro
tect us on the sea, the pensioner upon the
gratitude of the nation, bearing the scars
and wounds received while in its service,
the public servants in the various depart
ments.of the government, the farmer,who
supplies the soldiers of the army and the
sailors of the navy, the artisan whojroils
in the nation's workshop, or the mechan
ics and laborers who build its edifices and
construct, its forts and vessels of war,
should in the payment of their just and
hard earned dues, receive depreciated pa
per, while another class of their country
men
no more deservinff 6 are paid in coin o ';
gold and silver. Equal and exact justice
requires that all the creditors of the gov
ernment should be paid in a currency pos
sessing a uniferm value.
This can only be accomplished by the
restoration of the currer.cy to the stand
ard established by the Constitution, and
by this means we would retrieve a dis
crimination which may, if it has not al
ready done so, create a prejudice that may
become deep rooted and wide spread, a , td
imperil the national credit.
The feasibility of making our currency
correspond with the constitutional stand
ard may be seen by reference to a few
facts derived from our commercial statis
ties. The production of precious metals
in the United States frqm 1849 to 1857,
inclusive, amounted to $579,000,000;
from 1858 to 1800, inclusivei, t0*137,500,-

A disordered currency is one of the
greatest po'iti..al evils; it

against industry, frugality and economy,

and speculation. It has been asserted by
one of our profound and most gifted

these hear lightly on the happiness of the
mass of the community compared with a
fraudulent currency, and the robberies

own history has recorded' for our instruc

the demoralizing, tencitney, the injustice
and intolerable oppression on the virtuous
and well-disposed of a depreciated paper

maintained by government.
It is one of the most successful devices, l
in times of peace or war, expansions or ,

All the precious metals from the great
mass of the people into the hands of the
few, where they are hoarded in secret
places, or deposited in strong boxes under 1
bolts and bars, while the people are left
to endure all the inconvenience, sacrifice
and demoralization resulting from the use I
of a depreciated and worthless paper mo

The condition of our finances, and` the
operations of our revenue system are set
forth and fully explained in the able and 1
instructive report of the Secretary of the
Treasury.
On the both of June, 1866, the public
debt amounted to $2,783,425,879; on the
