A meeting of the Republican Union Stand

53f"Tho impeachment of President John
ton is all the absorbing topic. Tbo forbear.
anco and wisdom of Congress in approach
ing this subject, must bo manifest to all
thinking and liberal minded men. Even
the democrats uro Icbs boisterous than one
might liuve expected but is apparent that
some of the President's lute acts bavo dis
gnstcd the more considerate and intelligent
men of that party. The usual blue tcr among
some of the democracy, that the country is
going to destruction, is of course indulged
in. It wus the sonio when President Lin- j
coin called lor troops to put down tue ue
bcllion. Mr. Buchanan and many of his
weak-kneed followers then declared that the
rebel States could not be coerced, and to call
out troops to prevent them dissolving the
Union was unconstitutional. It is therefore
now unconstitutional to impeach Andrew
Johnson, no matter whether he is guilty or
innocent of the crimes and misdemeanors
for which ho is to be tried. This govern
ment is a government of the people and the
President and all his aiders and abettors,
rebels and all others included, arc not able
to overthrow it. But that the democracy
ehould favor tbo one man power, as they arc
now doing, is a doctrine that would have
found no place in tho creed of Jefferson, and
is better fitted for the subjects of RtiBsia or
Turkey than of freemen.
53T"The Pennsylvania Rail Road.
The annual meeting of the stockholders of
this road took place on Tuesday last. The
receipts from 1807, were $10,8-10,000. The
expenses $12,080,000, leaving the net earn
ings at 14,239,000. The earnings of the
Philadelphia & Erie road, of which the
Pennsylvania road is lessee, is as follows :
From passengers, $635,131 63
From troops, 1,806 82
From freight, 1,631,002 02
From exprem matter, 25,875 IS
From mails, 18.4Hii OS
From miscellaneous sources 16,605 C9
$2,333,753 9.1
The operating expenses during the same
period were :
Fur conducting transiiorlu-
tion S565,2V5 61
For maintenance of way 64S,3M) 43
For motive power 624,772 60
For maintouuneo of cars 172,415 22
2,638,112 37
Showing a loss to this company, in ope
rating the lino under the lease, of $354,352 43
or 75,690.80 in excess of the same item in 18t9.
The report proposes to run slow freight
trains through from Philadelphia to Erie
and back, without change of engines, cars,
engineers, conductors or hands, at a speed
not exceeding six miles per hour. This is
intended to carry heavy freights ut a low
figure.

When tho Puris Exposition was in

one in graud prizes und exceeded every
nation excepting France in the general pro
portion of gold aud silver medals and hon

the impeachment of the fbesi- '
dent.
The IIouso of Representatives, after a
long and cxhaustivo debate, votod that
'Andrew Johnson, President of tho United
States, be impeached of high crimes and
misdemanors." Upon this resolution 130
Representatives Toted Yes, while 47 voted
No. It will be seen that tho Republicans
acted in a body, while Mr. Cary of Ohio,
and Mr. Stewart of New-York, Independent
Republicans, voted with the Democrats.
Impcachmeut, defeated beforo by a large
Republican vote, is now accepted without a
single dissenting Republican voice.
Whatever may be said of Congress, it has
shown crcat forbearance. ' There has been
no general disposition to impeach Mr. John'
son. The issuo was of his own seeking,
The dignity of tho Presidential office ig such
that tho Republican party felt, that impeach
ment should only bo used as a last resort ;
that it would bo far better to bear with Mr.
Johnson than to brino upon the country an
uncertain, doubtful, angry issue.
The following article from tho New York
I Tribune sums up only a portion of tho crimes
and misdemeanors of which tho President
gtanU8 guiity
,irjut Jt .g
clear that Johnson intended to
get possession of tho War Department as a
means of controlling the army. His tenders
ol promotion and command to prominent
military officers liko Sherman and Thomas,
who have spurned his offers with such
honest and patriotic contempt, and his
overtures to minor officers to ascertain whe
ther they would put their troops under his
orders iu deliauce of those of Gen. Grant, all
show that Johnson wanted, not to test the
constitutionality of the law, but to get con
trol of the army, or at least a cousiderublo
portion of it, to employ it iu resistance to
the measures of Congress and the orders of
Gen. Grant and Secretary Stanton. Elud
ing himself foiled in this, ho now talks ot
testing the constitutionality ol the law. If
he did not know that tho tribunal before
which his acts would como for judgment
was the same which passed the law, and
that before such a tribunal he could subject
it to no new test, lie deserves impeachment
for his stupidity.
Were this the first step in tho President's
career of ollicial crimes and usurpations,
Congress and the country would have re
garded it with intiuite forbearance. But
designed as the climax of a long series of
offences aud crimes which he calls his "poli
cy," he can claim no such forbearance. It
was not to test the constitutionality of any
law thut he violated from tho outset the act
of Congress forbiddiug the appointment of
Rebels like Gen. Humphreys and Governor
Sharkey to office. He did it as a clear vio
lation of law, because ho thought the law
unwise. Aud Congress overlooked his of
fense. His usurpation of the legislative
powers of Congress relative to reconstruction
was a serious political crime, but Congress
overlooked it iu consideration of his knowu
unfumiliarity with all questions of constitu
tional law. His abuse of the pardoning
power by allowing his signature to be hawk
ed about by harlots, and his abuse of the
appointing power by levying contributions
on his office-holders, have been a stench in
the nostrils of the nation. His use of the
whole patronage and power of the Govern
ment as a graud corruption fund, to bribe,
buy, and bully all offico holders into the
betrayed of the very principles aud party
he was himself elected to sustain, revealed a
depth of personal depravity unprecedented
in the history of public men in America.
His complicity with the Rebels and traitors
in their anti-negro riots at Memphis and
New Orleans, rendered him morally respon
sible for scores of innocent lives, and showed
uiiu cuimuiu oi wiuitiug nr, any tuons 10
iuuugurute a war of races. His drunkenness
when taking the iuaugural oath, and wheu
swinging around the circle, condemned him
to everlasting contempt, yet was treated
with apparent forbearance. HU treachery
to his oath and constitutional duty iu de
liberately striking down tho most distin
guished heroes ot the war, and our most
trusted civil officers, for their fidelity to the
laws, and their desiro to see them faithfully
executed, merited prompt impeachment,
conviction and removal mouths ago, but
Congress furtbore and condoned these of
fenses. At last, however, Andrew Johnson, as
sured aud self deceived by this loug for
bearance and oft-rcpeatcdelay to punish,
assumes a position w hich would enable him
to revolutionize the Government and make
himself Dictator within twenty days, if Con
gress should couccdo the power lie claims.
For if he cou remove and appoint ml interim
all the officers, civil and military, in the
couutry, without usking the consent of the
Scuate, ho cuu remove Grant and uppoiut
Lee to tho command of the army, remove
every loyal inau from every office iu the

Method of Impeachment.
At tho trial of tho President the Chief-
Justice of the Supreme Court of tho United
states must preside, rue mam points in
the procedure against tho President will, be
as follows i
A committee appointed by the House will
appear before tho bar of tbo Senate and offi
cially announce the resolution of impeach
ment. Tho President of the Senate will ap
point a Select Committee to hear the report
of the Committee of the House. A report
will then be mode bv the Senate Committee
to the Senate. The Senate will take action,
and its action will bo officially communica
ted to the House. Tho Speaker will ap-
ioint a Hoard of Managers to conduct the
mncachmcnt: thev will carry to the Senate
the articles of impeachment. The action of
the House will be read to the Senate, which
then appoints the time when it will "resolve
itself into a Court of Impeachment." Euch
Senator takes tho oath that he will do im
partial justice. Tho Board of Mnnngcrs of
tho House being introduced to the bar ot
tho Court, formally present tho articles of
lmpeacnment. A summons Is issued to tue
party accused to answer the articles of iiu
pcachment, fixing the day returnable, which
is served at least ten days before the return
thereof. The day of tho trial having arrived,
tho House, resolving itself intu Committee
of tho Whole, proceeds in a body to the
Senate Chamber, and is admitted. The re
turn is read by the Secretary of tho Senate
Arrangements are then mode for tho sum
moning of witnesses. The trial being com
pleted, each article is read by the Secretary,
and the roll called, when each Senator an
swers "Guilty" or "Not Guilty," two-thirds
being required to declare the accused guilty.
The decision is given, and communicated to
the accused. If found guilty, tho President
will from that moment be deprived of his
office, the functions of which will devolve
upon the President of the Senate, tho Hon
Benjamin F. Wade of Ohio.
The trial of President Johnson will rank
in history as ouo of the most celebrated
state trials of all times. Rarely has the
world watched tho proceedings of a legisla
tive body with so iuteuso an interest as it
will watch the actiou of Congress in this
impeachment case, und the decision of the
Senate, whatever it may be, will make
profound impression throughout tho world.

Washington, Feb. 21, 1863.
At about tw o i m. the President's Secre
tary brought to the Senate several commu
nications, and when they were quietly open
ed were found to contain the nomiuutiou of
Geo. B. MeClellau to bo minister to Eng
land ; Gen. George II. Thomas to be Lieu
tenant Generul by brevet ; and an announce
meut that the President had removed Hon.
E. M. Stanton as Secretary of War, and or
dered Adjutant Geuerul Lorenzo Thomas to
assume thu duties of the War Department,
under thu authority of uu old statute ex
humed for tho occasion, und which dates
prior to tho Tenure of Office bill, which lat
ter Mr. Johnson docs not admit wos repeal

of this action of the Executive flew rapidly
over thu Seuutc, and soon a motion was
made to go into Exccutivo Session, which
was cunied by a party vote.

how summary he intended his process to be,
und if he w ould have time to gather up his'
paper aud put on his cout. Gen. Thomas
responded "that he would;" and Mr. Stan
toil said that he would like some time to
consider upon it, und desired to have a
copy of tho notice served upon him in wri

soou after sent in a copy of his order from
the President, which Mr. Stanton immedi
ately had copied and transmitted to the
House of Representatives.

THE SENATE'S VIEWS.
About three l. m., a committee of Sena
tors, consisting of Messrs. Cameron, Chand
ler, Cattell aud Thayer arrived, aud were
grunted an immediate interview. They in
formed Mr. Stanton that they came at the
request of their Republican colleagues to
usk that he should not surrender except to
physical force, and on no account to leave
his office long cuough for Geuerul Thomas
to move in and get possession, so us to put
upon tim the necessity of resorting to any
unusual moans to retain the office.
SECRETARY STANTON'S 1'OSITION.
Mr. Stanton replied that if tho Republi
can party were united upon tho question,
and they considered it to be his duty to re
main, he would do so until be was removed
piecemeal ; that this was not his quarrel,
but that of the loyal people, and be wanted
it so understood. That if they would act
in tho matter, and act promptly, ho would
wiu it through; but he was uot "dispoed to
keep up this tiht ainglo handed aod aiono.

On their return they found the Senate in
Executive Session, and Mr. Sherman making
a speech aud repudiating the pretense of
the law which tho President had set up.
No question was beforo tho Senate except
the point as to me power oi tne rresiucni
remove Secretary Stanton. All the Repub
licans were clear in their views that he hud
not tho power, and were anxious to get
some actiou to-day, but the Democrats were
equally anxious to secure delay, and indulg
ed in long arguments in defense of the Pre
sident, and the Republicans accordingly
took up the gauntlet; and now. at hall-past
eight, tho debulo still goes on.
MOVEMENTS AND VIEWS OP OEM. THOMAS.
After leaving Mr. Stanton, General Thom
as, who had previously promulgated an or
der by direction of the President, closing
the department to-morrow in commemora
tion of Washington's birth day, left the de
partment and went to tho White House ;
from there back to the department, and
then down to his hotel, stating to several
persons who asked him about his intentions,
that ho considered he was Secretary of War,
but as to-morrow wos a non die on account
of its being a holiday the department would
be closed by his orders, and also upon Sun
day, but that "on Monday he should take
possession" of his office, but declined to
state how he would "take" it if Mr. Stanton
refused him.
THE NEW lMl'EACnMENT PROJECT.
The Reconstruction Committee are to
meet at Mr. Stevens' room in the morning,
and there seems to be no doubt among tlio
leading Republicans but that they will find
articles of impeachment under the sixth
section of the Tenure of Office act, which
makes the issuing of a commission to Gene
ral Thomas as Secretary of War a misdemea
nor. THIS TENURE Ol' OFFICE
Section 5 of this act provides that if any

Upon the evidence collected by tho com
mittee, which is hereafter presented, aud in
virtue of tho powers with which they have
been invested by the House, they are of the
opinion that Andrew Johnson, President of
the United States, should be impeached of
high crimes und misdemeanors. They there
fore recommend to thu House the adoption
of the accompanying resolution.

lUtuletd, That Andrew Johusou, President
of the United States, be impeached of high
crimes and misdemeanors.
The report having been read, Mr. Stevens
said : Mr. Speaker, it is not my intention in
the first instance to discuss thu question, and
if there- be no desire on thu other side to
discuss it wo are willing that the questiou
shall be taken on the knowledge w hich the
House already has. Indeed, the fact of
removing a man from office whilo the Sen
ate is in session without the consent of the
Senate, is itself and always has been consid
ered a high crime and misdemeanor, and
was never before piactised. But I will not
discuss this question uuless gentlemen on
the other side desire to discuss it. If they
do, I shall for tho present give way to them,
and suy what I have to soy myself in con
clusion. .
The report of this committee was discuss
ed until eleven o'clock on Saturday night,
when it was mutually agreed upon that a
vote on the Impeachment should be taken
at five o'clock this (Monday) afternoon.
Judging from the debate, it is generally
concceded that the Republicans are united,
and will vote in solid phalanx for presenting
articles of impeachment to tho Senate. If
such articles of impeacbuicnt are presented
to tho Senate, the third article of tho Con
stitution of the United States prescribes tho
following mode of trial, viz:
"0. The Senate shall have the sole power
to try all imeachinenls. When silting for
that purpose, they shall lc on oath or affir
matioa. Whan ths President of tbo United
States is tried, the Chief Justice shall pro
side. And oo person shall be convicted
without tbe concurrence ol twothirdi of
1 the member, prejent.
"7, Judgment, in case of impeachment,
shall nut extend further than to removal
from office, and disqualification to hold and
enjoy any office of honor, trust or profit

GENERAL GRANT'S POSITION.
If any assurance Is needed as to the inten
tions of General Grant in this crisis, and j
there is no one here who doubts, we have it J
in the fact that he has rcmcted the old guard
of the War Department, the 12th inluntry,
and bus detailed picked men of his own
body guard, the filth cavalry, to the duty.
It comes officially from the General's head
quarters, that tho President has made ap
proaches to Colonel Wallace, and sounded
Emory, with the hope of binding them to
his purposes.
At this hour, twelve o'clock, the President
sends dispatches that his interfering with
these officers was merely to demand an ex
planation of movements of troops ordered
by General Grant, and that he mado no effort
to shake their loyalty. This is pronounced
untrue here by nearly everybody, but John
son's audacity and lying does not occasion
any surprise. Generul Grunt issued an order
yesterday morning calling the attention of
commanders of posts to the rcceut act of
Congress namely, that all orders to the army
must pass through his bauds ; thut his head
quarters aro in this city, and that orders em
anating from auy other sourco must not be
obeyed.
The President has been baffled at every
point, and there is not the faintest prospect
that ho will be able, if he should feel so in
clined, to muster a corporal's guard of the
regular army, to aid him in his opposition
to Congress.
THE WAR DEPARTMENT,
From the War Department, Secretary
Stanton notified the City Postmaster, of this
city, last night, that he should not deliver
the War Department mails to anybody with
out on his order. Last night, and to dav.
the muils have been regularly received, and
thus fur there Ima been no interference ou the
part of the Postmaster General.
Should any attempt be made, either by
him or uny of the other Secretaries, to inter
fere with or ignore Mr. Stanton, the Recon
struction Committee will bring in articles of
impeachment against the offending party.
It is suid that McCulloch will not pay any
requisitions from the War Department, un
less they are signed by General Thomas.
Should he take this course, he will be noti
fied at once of his impeachment, and will be
on trial at the same time as the I'rcsidct.t.
Secretary Stanton is constrained bv a sense
of duty to avoid all possibility of an armed
collision and resort to violence, and follow
ing the experiences of the dark hours of the
war, when for days he did not leave his post
in tho War Office, has remained steadlustly
in his office since this trouble began. His
meals are served in his office, and his bed is
there also. His family have culled on him,
but he has not left the Department. His
rooms are thronged all day, and to a late
hour of the night, with the" best, ablest and
most eminent members of the Republican
party in both branches of Congress.
The Secretary is quiet, thoughtful, nlinost
sad and in every utterance und act shows
that ho is inspired by no personal feelings,
but wholly by a sense of duty to his country.
The Secretary's course in rctaiuing continued
possession will be accepted as prudent and
wise; it avoids on the part of Congress and
the people the initiation of force. If revo
lutionary violence is to be displayed, the
crime has got to be Andrew Johnson's.

The prompt uction of Secretary Stanton

Gen. Thomas, immediately on being released,
repaired to tho White House, uud hud an
interview with the President, who instruct
ed him to go to the War Department at
once and take possession.
Gen. Thomas at fifteen minutes of twelve
presented himself at the War Department,
and went up stairs to tho office of the Secre
tary. There were assembled Secretary Stanton,
General Grant, Gcucral Howard, aud several
Radical members of Congress.
General Thomas demanded the keys of
tne otnee, but Secretary Stanton refused to
give them. They are now discussing the
matter.
The President was waited upon this morn
ing by Senator Doolittle, General Bunks,
General Gordon Granger, aod several other
Congressmen. About 11 o'clock, the Presi
dent sent for Attorney General Stanbery for
consultation, and he arrived at the White
House a few minutes ago in obedience to
the summons.
LATER.
Washington, Feb. 223 p. xi. The Re
construction Committee, at its meeting this
morning, agreed to report articles of im
peachment against the President to-day.
Mr. Stactou, iu very decided terms, de
clined to comply with Thomas' request, and
gave him orders to leave the War Depart
ment building at once, which was complied
with. Although he threutcned that he
would have possession before night, the last
move on the part of Thomas has only in

It is admitted on all sides at Washington
that Secretary Seward's letter destroys the
force of the President's allegations against
Grant. A friend ot the fresiuent remon
struted with him against sending in Seward's
letter, but Mr. Johnson said that Congress
could see from the letter the dependence that
could be placed upon him. In snort, tne
President doesn't like Seward's letter, but it
