The Impeachment Trial.
April 18, the pending question of admit
ting testimony in reference to Cabinet
consultation upon the tenure-of-office bill,
was considered. The Chief Justice ruled
that it was admissible; but the impeach . -
ers refused to hear it by a vote of 20
. to
29. It should be noted that the President
is impeached for what is alleged to be a
criminal intention ; yet his triers refuse to
hear evidence to show his intentions in re
ference to the subject in issue. The peo
ple will not fail to observe that the Senate
has been guilty of gross injustice in refus
ing to admit the most important evidence
which has been offered. Such Senators
will of course give an equally unjust ver
dict.
Monday, April 20, the defence having
no evidence to offer except such as bad
been rejected by the impeachers, rested
the case. The managers offered some doc
umentary and irrelevant testimony, and
adjourned till Wednesday.
Oa the 22d, the following rule was
adopted :
." Ordered, That as many of the mana
gers and of the counsel as may desire, be
permitted to file written arguments or ad
dreSs the Senate orally. But the conclud
ing oral argument shall be made by only
one manager,-as provided in the'twenty
first rule."
Mr. Boatmen then commenced his ar
gument, reading from printed slips. At
four o'clock he yielded to a motion to ad
journ.
On the 23d, Boutwell closed his speech,
and Judge Nelson made an oral argument
for the defence.
Boutwell's speech was mainly a violent
partisan harangue, intended to excite po
litical prejudice against the President.
Mr. Nelson's argument was a convin
cing one to unprejudiced minds, showing
no just cause for impeachment. The Rad
ical organs boast that Senators do not, lis
ten .Lo the defence, but that thirty-nine of
them are positively pledged to vote for
conviction. If the Radical claquers are
not consummate falsifiers,the Radical Sen
ators are unfit to act as jurors in the case
on account of having entered into a crim
inal conspiracy to perjure themselves by
giving a verdict of guilty in accordance
with the party programme, without refer
ince to the law and the facts in the case.
A part or all of this week will be con
sumed with the speeches ; after which the
ease will go to the "jury;" but it looks
very much like submitting a political
question to a Radical town caucus.
Radical,. Senators and others are busy
fixing np the slates fur appointment to of
fice under Ben Wade. 1"
On Friday Mr. Nelson closed Ids argu
ment for defence. A motion to have the
official reporters present at 'the final delib
erations of the Senators,Ato report their
speeches, was rejected!
Do the Radicals intend to insist upon a
secret session, lest the people read their
reasons for conviction and condemn them?
" All the People !"
When Thad Stevens and Bingham ap
peared in the Senate to announce that the
House had voted to impeach the Presi
dent, they declared that it was done by
authority of "ALL tht, People." How
false that statement was, all the people
know ; and the impeachers bid a broad
hint of it on Tuesday last, the day after
closing the case. Chicago, Radical Chi
cago, the Great City of the West, put
Congress on trial, and sent the verdict in
thunder tones to the capital, announcing
that theJuipeacbers are impeached by
the people. A change of , almost
5,000 votes is significant. Albany,
too, gives a Democratic gain of half that
number.
So the East and the West respond to
each other; the people are being beard,
from,; and in November the Radicals will•
learn the full verdict, and feel the cost of
their folly and crime of impeachment in
the name of" all the People !"
--Snrrattis second trial will commence
on the 12th of May. Jiidir,e Black, Mr.
Merrick and Mr. Bradley, Jr. will appear
on hie behalf.
" Outside the Constitution."
The following extradt from the speech
,
of Thaddeus Steveus on- - tbe Alabama bill
shciuld lie..Orcifully read by every one who
,desires to'form n 'candid judgment with
regard,
,
to the Congress, which has qtaked
the very ' ` ' ex istence of the radical 'party
upon the the effort to drive the President
from his seat :
" " They let that bill Ile upon the table over two
months, although -nrged to take it np and pa, , s it bo
tbro the vote o/ Alabama took place. That vote toots':
place, a nd'only a minority of registered voters voted for

"When west Vir ginia Was introduced. I first made

The boldness of this avowal shows that
the Jacobins 'Count upon go great an

when they openly acknowledge that they

Impeachmerit a Failure.
The impeachers have so lift failed to make out a case
against the President that they resort to partisan at/-
peals to press Senators Into voting for conviction.
Under thelaw and - facts, there is a clear cause for ne
onatal: but where party.passion is to deckle, the result
may be different.
The alleged violation of the tenure of office bill is the '
only point to which the impeachers cling for hope.
But no legal conviction can be had upon that, for these
reasons : let. The act is unconstitutional ; 2d. It does
not by its terms protect Stanton because be was not up
pointed by Johnson : 3d. And finally, Stanton has nut
been actually removed, but continues in office.
As to mere party numbers with title!' to vote him out
the ease stands thus: Tliereare 54 Senators, of which
vumber36 aro two thirds. Of the 54, Q 2 are radicals, 9
are Democrats and arerUnlop Republicans. These 12
will no doubt vote for acquittal ;and the votes of 7 radi
cal. will also be required, if. Wade votes. Ten radicals,
Anthony, Fessend4, Fowler,' Grimes, Ross, Sherman,
Sprague, Trumbull; Van Winkley ithd Willey, have, od4
several occasions during the trial, shown a disposition
to deal fold); bat wider threats of being readout of the
party, the impeachers boast that they can hold at
least 7of them to vote as the party caucus dictates.
"Sittest thou to judge me after the law, and comvaan.
dest me to be smitten contrary to the law' God shall
smite thee thou whited wall."
Radical Anticipations.
In the Roston letter of the New York
Indep - enfient, a Radical religious journal,
we find the following choice morsel:
"In art we have several novelties. John Brown
blessing the-slave child'on his wey to execution has
gone blew Torkward. It is not equalled in variety
and vitality to the slave sale at St. Louis, by the same
artist, bpt Is stilispoirerful r eomposition. The great
martyr, with his aureola,rotuld his soul gleaming sa
credly from his eyes set on eternity, puts his hand—
his arms being tied behind him—with difficulty on the
pretty baby'a heart. It has handsome mother, with
that fall, voluptuous form of soft, luscious flesh, that
so stirred the hearts of their white kindred with fer-
vent hope and warm desires, and that will henceforth
win them. from the same class, honorable love and
marriage."
What perfect bliss the Radicals must
anticipate when their theory of " equali
ty" becomes so :firmly tstablisbeal that
they can enjoy " honorable love and mar
riage" with the colored maids, who, az ,
they claim, have "full, voluptuous forms
of soft, luscious flesh :"
Women's Itights.
Mr. Benjamin F. Wade, the expectant
President of the United States, in place of
Andrew Johnson, is one of the champions
of the Women's Rights party. A few
weeks ago he sent the following letter to
the President:
To his Excellency, Andrew Johnson, Pecsi-
dent of the United Stoles
"Sire: Believing es'we do that the time
has come when women of'eapacity and
talent rimy properly represent this gov
ernment at foreign courts and foreign
countries, we, the undersigned, most
cheerfully solicit for and recommend the
appointment of Mrs. Francis Bond' to such
embasayas may be compatible with the
interests and honor of the Country.
Respectfully, B. F. WADE.

Bogus Legislation.
It seems to be admitted that the Regis !
try act is a fraud upon the people; that one
bill passed the legislature, while another
one was signed by the Governor to be de
clared a "!ant." The Inquirer a radical
organ while atknitting the fraud, regrets
that its party assumes the risk of defeat
for this fraud, and sets a bad example for
the future. We quote from it as herein
under:
The proceedings of the Legislatnre show that it wee
stated by n member of the Rouse, In piece, on Monday
last, that the Registry law. as died in the office of the
Secrettaary of the Secretary of the Secretary of the Com

Legislative Record and certified to bare been signed by
the Governor.
The Rowe ought, in our opinion, to haveallowed the
Inquiry to be made; bat thecontroversy was not settled
aecorng to-the Jest aspect of the matter, but as a "po-
Mica I question. in which it was assumed, as amatter of
course, that the party of the minority was in the wrong.

A Voice from the West.
The solid` men of Chicago, the 'mer
chants, manufacturers, capitalists, and
workingmen, are tired of Radical rulers
in city affairs, as well as in the State and
nation. Boston is in the hands of the
Democrats. So are New York and Bal
timore. Philadelphia gave a Democratic
majority last fall, and will make the work
of redemption complete at the next elec
tion. Tothis array of cities and commer
cial centres must now be added Chicago.
This is no inure coincidence in political
history. Like causes are producing like
results in ail parti of the country. The
The decline of business caused by the sec
tional and despotic action of the Radical
party, hits the people on the borders of
the lakes as well as those on the seaboard.
Merchants are standing idle in their
stores in Philadelphia and Boston, and
the seine fact is equally apparant. in
Chicago.
In the meantime property, incomes and
business are taxed to the uttermost verge
of endurance, and yet the party in power
are still driving on the political car with
reckless unconcern as to the real interests
of the country.

its full import and meaning can be Lath.

Forney's Trouble.
We copy from the Morning Post of the
16th inst. the following:
After the court of impeachment bad ad
journed on Wednesday the Senate held a
session for legislative business. A bill ap
propriating $117,000 for the contingent
expenses of the Senate was discussed and
passed. in the course of the debate on
this bill, Senator Cameron spoke
of the accounts of the Secretary of
the Serr:t. as being in a condition that
needed investigation. He alluded to the
fact that a few months ago there was a
defalcation of $40,000 on Col. Forney's
books. He knew it had been said that a
Mr. Wagner, who is a relative of Mr.
Forney's, and who at that time was a con
fidential clerk, was said to be the guilty
person, and it had been affirmed that
Wagner confessed it, and that Mr. Forn
ey had made restitution. lie dill not be
lieve this, however. Me knew Mr. Wag
ner very well, and be knew him to be an
honest and upright man. He was confi
dent that a proner investigation would fix
the crime on some one else. Senators
Thayer and Cragin attempted to defend
Forney, and said that Wagner had con
fessed hts guilt, saying that he had used
the money in speculations, and that Mr.
Forney had made good the loss from his
own pocket. Mr. Cameron insisted, how
ever that such was not the fact, and on
his motion the committee on contingent
expenses was ordered to examine the Sec
retary'saecounts and report on them.
On your Oaths, Senators !
A court never sat under circumstances
more trying to a conscientous man than
the Senate of the United States. Nu mat
ter what political party a Senator repre
sents, his position is delicate, his tempta
tion great, and his responsibility perilous.
The peculiar feature of the case is that
nearly every judge has formed, expressed
and defended his opinion as to the guilt
or innocence of the accused on trial. An
other danger lies in the bearing which the
case has upon the Presidential election.—
Senators are tempted to look at the re
sults of the trial upon their own and their
party's prospects. And so strong is this
sentiment in the country, that leading pa
pers, and even religious papers, do not
hesitate to declare what verdict the Sen
ate is bound to pronounce.
Al! such considerations and appeals are
indecent and unjust. They go upon the
presumption that Senators are not. honest
men ; that they have no sense of the so
letnnity of their office or their oath ; that
they will try this case merely as a neces
sary step in the accomplishment of a polit
inl measure, a party necessity.
It is a sad-commentary on the state of
moral sentiment in the nation when the
press, secular and religious, sinks out of
sight the duties and the oaths of Senators
of the United States, and prescribes the
verdict before the trial is begun. —N. Y.

—The Charleston Mercury concludes an
artiele"upun the negro vote in the South
as follows: "If it is the purpose of the
United States Government to negroize
he Southern States,. they may as well
know now as any other time, that it has
to be done with the bayonet and has tc be
preserved with the bayonet in all time to
come. Earnestly solicitous as the South
ern people are in good thith to abide the
result of unfavorable war, and to meet
fairly the issue of defeat, in yielding an
honest acquiescence to the premises up
on which the war was declared to be
fought by the United States government
—the preservation of the Union—this
people will not debase themselves under
negro rule; they will .not assume the level
of the negro."
—The Methodist Conference lately in
session at Brooklyn, denounced the use of
tobacco in any form, but declared in a se

President Johnson, who uses no tobacco,
and of e lecting to next Presidency Gener

ference also adjourned on Saturday to al
low such members as resided in Connecti
cut to return to that state to vote for
" Grant, victory, and Jewell," and the
money was generously furnished to de.
fray the traveling expenses of these cler
gymen.
Poor, misguided priests! the rebuke
given them by Connecticut must have
been severely felt.
Grant's Pastor.
Ole Bull gave a concert in ITashington
a few evenings since for the benefit of the
Lincoln Monument. It was a decided fail
ure, and did not pay expences. The Rev.
Byron Sunderland, whose church Grant
has joined since he became a candidate for
President, tendered his service to open
the concert with prayer. lie prayed that
the Almighty would tl)rever deprive the
Democratic party of
. power, mentioning it
by name. We wonner what Grant's pas.
tor thinks of the efficacy of his prayers
since the elections in Connecticut and
elsewhere. The chances oft he Rev. Byron
Sunderland's prayer being answered seem
to be very slim indeed.
er'When Abraham Lincoln violated
the Federal Constitution, assumed doubt
ful powers, usurped limit-legated authori
ty, and trampled ruthlessly upon the
rights of the people, the Rump Congress
passed an "imdemoity act," to 'legalize
his doings, so far as it could, and to pre
vent those who had suffered from bring
ing him to punishment under the laws.—
When, however, President Johnson un
dertakes to secure a legal decision upon
an act passed by a partisan majority to
fetter him in his authority, the Rump
Congress undertakes to throw him out of
office. Such are different faces of radical
ism under di&rent circumstances.
Want. to be Brevet Nigger.
The Illinois State Regterter proposes, as they have in
the army brevet Oeuerafs, brevet Colobels, and so on,
that Congress establish the office of brevet nigger. In
illustration of its meaning, the Register nays that, du
ring the war, the quartermaster's impartment, instruc
ted by the ulggerloelng authority at Washington, paid
negro teamsters $2,5 per month and rations, while white
soldiers. detained for duty as teamsters, were only paid
eta and rations. An /11Inols soldier put on duty as
mule whacker, sent a written application to his cap
tain " to be promoted as nigger by brevet and asking
that the President order him on duty, with pay in ac•
cordanee with his rank." The Register thinks, if the
people can be induced to vote the radical ticket next
fail; and thus continue that party, It will not be Jong
before white men will be applying for protection. All
want to be brevet niggers, that le, made equal to nig
gers in title of rank and pay, though they couldn't hope
to be made equal In authority.
What a Contrast.
What said John A- Logan, one of the great Impeach
ing Champions in Congress, in a speech which he made
in Southern Illinois Just before President Lincoln issue
hie first call for troops t Hear him :
" Men of the South ! stand to your arms ! the itanati

Never, so longs* God lets me live, will I consent to the

ance of all the devil's whelps, that ever voted for that
