THE QUff HPS CLEARLY STATED.
BT EEVi THOMAS K. BEECHES. .
Ia ill the discussions of the political
.-Unions that have abwrbed the public at:
yntion during the fcst three months, we do
ot remember to Lave seen the point ia con
troversy between the People, as represented
ia Congress, and the . President of the U
nited States, more lucidly or happily pre
sented than ia the following paragraphs,
from the pen of Rev. Thomas K. Beecher.
We copy from Klmira (N. Y.) Advertiser :
For the President to originate a policy
and use every influence at his command to
carry it through, contrary to the will of Con
gress is unconstitutional, however custo
mary ; and in a high decree dangerous in
its tendency. . '
The power of government are classed un
der three heads legislative, executive, and
judicial. The duties and powers of each are
clearly defined by the Constitution. These
cannot clash, except by one or the other
iiertepping itsconstitutional bounds. Th
JiwJtiiit is the executor of laws the na
uoa'i right hand. He is not law-maker.
(!)D.?ress is the sole law-maker. Shall the
iind say to the bead, " hare a thought of
mil oicn ?"
The hand may send information to the
b?ad, but the head directs the liaiid. A
President "may give information" to Con
gress. He may ''recommend" laws and
measures to their consideration. liut
turely he can aonstitutionally do no more
than this.
tiball Speaker Colfax dictate decisions to
Judge Chase? Shall Judge Chase reverse
military orders issued by the President ?
May Congress meddle with court, or court
with Congress? As little inay the Presi
dent interfere wjth either court or Congress.
The permanence of our government depends
upon each department respecting the digni
ty of the other two, and thus avoiding col
liaion. What shall we say, then, when, a Presi
dent's policy seeks to preocccupy . the
place of a congressional policy ? I reply
that the executive is not charged with the
duty of policy-making. Its duty is to ex
ecute laws and measures, pot originate them.
He may recommend this or that '"to the
consideration" of Congress--. But it is im
pertinent and unconstitutional for the Presi
dent to endeavor to ' carry 1 his measures
through Congress. ' '
I know that it ha been for many years
tustomary for Presidents to do so-, I kficvv
that, since Martin Van Bureo taught An
drew Jack.-on how to use Presidential pa
tronage to intimidate Congressmen or buy
them, it has come to be a thing of course
that the President should endeavor to mold
leitislation and dictate laws in this unconsti
tutional and indirect manner.
But all this is wrong and dangerous. It
will eventuate sooner or later in a colli.-ion
letvrcen the nation's head and the nation's
land leaving government stunned as to
witdom, aud helpless as to strength.
A President should not make decrees, di
rectly or indirectly. And when, as now, a
President, during recess of Congres--, devises
a policy upon questions ot vital and peruia
mint moment, and next hastens toexecute it,
without any advice or authority from Con
gress; and next imparts it to Congress as
"my policy," working finely already ; and
then, when Congress would examine thor
oughly and deliberate on the matter, is vex
ed and angered bv criticism and delav. and
at last undertakes to be himself a tribune of
the people, and ppeak maledictions on the
people's chosen representatives, and by ar
Kament, threat, and patronage endeavor to
carry out "my policy ' rather than aid and
ecute the laws and resolves ot Congress !
it is time for citizens to be startled, and by
sober and respectful admonition declare
that legislative power belongs exclusively to
vongresj?, and does not belong in any degree
to the Executive.
Congress m: y err, no doubt The Presi
dent may be wise, and Congress - foolish.
Hut a temporary error of Congress does not
threaten such wide disaster as" an overshad
owing executive power prophesies. A con
gressional error is but a blunder. A law
nS president u a revolution. ,
hen in 1861 the nation was cannonaded
t Charleston, and her very capital threat
ened by gathering rebels, the modest Presi
dent called for 75,000 troops, to serve three
months and keep the peace against insur-wtion,-
And in the same proclamation he
!ed for (jorjgress Come, come as
qwasron can, and give me the lines by
which to raise an army and save the nation.
Ynj?jess came. And in his first message
the President apologized for the vast re
Ppnsibility he had taken, pointing to the
crisis that compelled the act. " Congress
promptly legitimated all bis proclamations
nd orders, and listened respectfully to his
commendations."
But in 1S65 another President staftled
tne nation by the haste he made on matters
profoundly intricate and momentous the
readjustment of a whole nation, but yester
day convulsed and sweating in the agony of
war. Wait! oh -wait for Congress 1 or at
ejt ask counsel ..- ' i -,,V , '
lut no. Whereas one President, when
oaty was simplest and most emphatic, did
the very least he dared do, and then ap&lo
Pzed; the other, when duty was most com
plex and difficult, made baste to do all that
mld do, hurrying lest Congress should
meddle with the tlan ......
1 uus Abraham Lincoln showed himself a
institutional ruler, even amid wr r's explo
; while Andrew Johnson , has shown
fimself unconstitutional in the use of power
"TSust when peace was promising abundant
tune for deliberation-'"- '.---
. His intentions, I doubt not, have been
r"ost and patriotic. But his zealous haste
" led him into a very conspicuous and dan
SWoub irregularity. . -' '
A bad custom must not plead ks age as a
reason for longer life and larger growth.
Presidential interference with Congress, al
ways an evil, is to-day grown up to startling
roportions. And therefore, even though
approved the President's policy as wiser
than that of Congress (in fact, they are very
nearly the same,) I should by my vote tfr
bold Congress,- bwcause in my judgment the
President errs grievously when he accounts
himself in any sense a representee of the
people, and . responsible for a policy. By
the Constitution a President is required to
execute the laws of Congresss and defend
the Constitution. If be does more, he is
acting unconstitutionally. Congress alone,
and not the President, represents the peo
ple and makes laws and establishes policies.
South Carolina.
For thirty years South Carolina has been
the leader of Southern thought. Uer.opin
ions have not been commonly to our liking ;
but we have admired the ability and cour
age with which she has maintained them.
Nor is she now disposed to abdicate her
leadership. In some particulars she has al
ready formed a just estimate of the actual
situation, and is adapting herself to the new
order of affairs." Of this nature is a law of
her Legislature making all people equal be
fore the laws, irrespective of tn'or. While
the Northern Democracy is still grovelling
in the dirt, basing all hopes of recovering
power upon coase appeals to brutal passions
and prejudices, South Carolina rises from
the mire in which she sat, and nobly decrees
that the blacks shall have the full prot"C
tion of the laws. By this Mep she places
herself at the bead of the new Southern
movement, and if she shall have the cour
age to go on will maintain beneficently her
old pre-eminence.
A Terrible Outrage Copperheads
Stone the Soldiers' Orphans. V hen Cop
perheads s oned and brii kbatted processions
of Republican voters., all decent people de
nounced the outraee but we have just learn
ed that these Noi l hem rebels are capable of
it s t i v
stni meaner acts, un loimar evening uct.
8th, a Union meeting was held in Cassville,
Huntingdon county, within one hundred
yards ot the Soldier' Orphan Schools, loca
ted in that village. The orphans of our fal
len heroes were permitted to attend the
meeting, in charge of their teachers, and
upon returning to the institution to which
they belonged, stones were thrown at them by
Copperheads, and two fatlierless children
a hoy and a girl were struck and seriously
injured. When the opposition resort to
such contemptible outrages, they orly ex
hibit their love for treason, and their enmity
to the Government, to save which, the
fathers of the orphans laid down their lives.
SnooTiNG A Negro for Sport. A cor
respondent informs the Memphis J'ist that
three men two whites and a negro resid
ing near Holly Springs, Mississippi, were
recently returning from Memphis; '1 hey
stopped for dinner at a bridge on Cold Wa
ter Creek, when the white men ordered the
negro to bring them some water. While he
was stooping down to dip up some water,
they fired upon him, wounding him, buf not
so seriously as to prevent his getting into
the woods and making his way to some
neighbors, to whom he told his tale, the facts
of which have since been corroborated. The
negro is still living, and has endeavored to
obtain a warrant lor the arrest of the men
who fired upon him, but had not succeeded
at bust accounts. The white men are his
near neighbors, and belong to the chiv
alry of that section of the country. They
claim to have fired upon the negro in sport,
as a nere matter of pastime.
John Bull appears to be warming up
against the Spaniah Government. The
Secretary of State has just dispatched a
missive to the court of Spain, which will
perhaps make Signor Espagnoli open his
eye. It appears that a vessel belonging to
a British merchant was, while sailing on
her voyage from Leith, in Scotland, to Rio
Janeiro, under English colors, taken to Ca
diz as a prize ; and that the ship and her
crew are still detained at that port as pris
oners of war, and refused all communication
with the English Consul. In this matter
the English Government has taken prompt
measures. Lord Stanley, it is asserted, has
demanded 20,000 damages for illegal de
tention of the vessel, besides an apology for
the insult to the flag, and the surrender of
the ship.
Old and New. "What do Arabs of the
desert live on, pa?" asked a roguish girl of
her father. "1-udge, Nelly, that's an old
conundrum. They live on the sand which
is (sandwiches), there." "Yes, but,-, pa,
how do they get 'em?" "Well, really,
Nelly, you have me there. " I give it up."
"Why, pa, you know that the sons of Ham
are bred and 'mustered in the wilderness?"
Come, come, my daughter, that is too kill
ing; don't say another word." ''Oh, yes,
do tell me what they eat on their, sand
wiches?" "Eaton 'em; why what do they
eat on 'em ?" "Butter, to be sure." "But
ter? How do thw got their butter ?"
"Why, you know, p:i, that when Lot's wife
was turned into a pillar of salt, all the family
pnt lierr an into the wilderness." l-
- A Heavy Verdict. The suit tried in
the Snyder county court, between Solomon
Brooks and the Pennsylvania railroad com
pany, was decided a few weeks ago, the ju
ry rendering a verdict in favor of the plain
tiff in the sum of thirteen thousand dollars.
Thi9 suit aroe out of the accident atThorn
sontown a few years since, and was removed
to Snyder from J uniata county.
A Herald Toranto dispatch says : A full
Cabinet meeting is called for at Ottowa, to
vn5ir what the position of Canada wonlrl
be if President Johnson made a demand on !
England to settle the Alabama claims.
j An Infamous Act by the Texas Leg
j islature. But a few weeks since the Leg
islature of Texa3 passed, through both
; Houses, a bill providing for the removal of
j the Federal dead to at Potter's Field. The
; cause assigned for this act, indorsed on the
j bill and placed o record, and on the statute
books of the State, was that the "vile dust
j of the Yankees might not be permitted to
i contaminate the dust of brave Confederate
soldiers ot the State," This bill was push
; ed through both Houses in the short space
! of two hours, and after short and bitter
speeches m favor of the resolution.
A person was walking in one of the
streets' of London, the other day, when a
projecting piece of iron from a plane, which
a 'workman was carryiug, tore his coat
sleeve, lie sued the work man for the value
ot the sleeve and recovered, the magistrate
remarking that it was the duty of a work
man carrying tools in the public streets to
take care that no injury was done to passen
gers. "
A Western correspondent, who expects to
be believed, says be met a big Indian on the
Plains a few weeks ago, who had with him
a large bundle of scalps. Upon venturing
to ask the gentleman his occupation, the
latter, with great gusto, answered, "Ugh,
me been skirmishing for waterfalls."
