The Impeachment Trial.
The President of the United States is
now fairly before the Senate for trial ou ar
ticles of impeachment preferred by the
House of Representatives. A summons has
been served on him to appear before the
Senate on Friday next, the 13th lust.; but
whether he will appear in person or by coun
sel is a question. From all that we can
gather Lu may adopt either course, but judg
lug from the revolutionary plane heretofore
pursued by the Romp, they may contrive
mid attempt to carry out a scheme for bring
ing the President in person before their fie.
gust assemblage. But we doubt whether
they will be able to induce the chief magis
trate of the nation of his own free will and
accord to submit to the degradation of ap
pearing in the capacity of a criminal before
a body which avowedly has been acting "out
side of the Constitution." However, the
trial is announced to begin on Friday nest;
"we shall see what we shall see."
First, as to the manner of trial which
seems to have been adopted. The President,
at the time designated, either by himself or
counsel, appears at the bar of the Senate
and is arraigned, very much after the fash
ion of persons against whom indictments are
found in our common criminal emits. The
trial then proceeds very much in accordance
with the well known forms in criminal eases,
only that the Senators, not sitting as swell,
but as constituting a High Court of Impeach
ment, act as judges and jurors, the Chief
Justice of the Supreme Court of the United
States discharging the duties only of presid
ing officer. So far as we cars understand,
his voice is not to be more potential in that
body than that of any other member—in
fact less so, for it seems be shall not be al
lowed to voti. However, the rules for the
government of the trial are new, and there
may be a modification of the views we have
expressed as t..) their bearing and effect.
The seven managers on the part of the
House procure counsel learned in the law,
to conduct the prosecution, and the Presi
dent may do the same if he shall to wish,
and the trial goes on. The verdict of guilty
or not guilty, or a verdict to that effact, is
then obtained through a vote of the Sena
tors; "and no person shall be convicted
without the concurrence of two-thirds of
the !embers present."
Various speculations arc indulged in as to
tho result of his trial; and public opinion,
as expressed by individual persons who arc
ordinarily well informed on current political
topics, and by the public journals of the
country, is so divided that it would be pre
sumptuous in us to attempt to lead our read.
ers by any set of soluences, which after all
must be mainly imaginary, to what we would
dare to call safe conclusions. We can only
say that it is manifest to us that the extreme
radicals in Congress seem desperately deter
mined to push ANDREW JOHNSON to the
wall, and that if a conviction does not fol
low this trial it will mainly be owing to the
fact that the revolutionists who have been
trying to hurry the country into war and
anarchy are afraid that not only ANDY but
their own ignominious party will be submer
ged by the rapidly approaching torrent of
irrezistablo DEmoCRACY.
1=11=:IMIICIC
JESSE C. AMMERMAN, of 31oz/tour:county,
has been selected as au Elector for the 13th
District. In looking over the electoral ticket
we notice the names of many of the best
men of the Democratic party. Crites L.
Ptastutto in the 17th District, WILLIAM P.
Ecazu. in the Htli, A. 0. Bitommizzin in
the 11th, and CHARLES BUCKWALTER in
the 3d, will be a tower of strength to the
ticket in their respective districts. The Con
vention acted wisely in the selection of this
whole ticket. A better one has not been
' , resented to the people of this Common
wealth for their suffrage within oar recollec
tion. With the right kind of a nominee for
President this ticket will run through the
State like wildfire. SErmoutt, of Connec
ticut, or PENDLL - rev, of Ohio, either one,
would carry the State. The only real differ
ence in the two men as regards running, the
former could not be attacked by the bond
holders and National Banks with any chance
of success, as he Las not made public his
views upon this great financial question.
There is no doubt in our mind but that
l'Esnuros's views expressed in his speech
on this important subject arc right, and
would carry him triumphantly through the
campaign if he should receive the nomina
tion on the 4th of July at New York.
Tut /itss of Philadelphia does not like

suspect such a loyal paper as the frees to
support any man who avisted in putting
down the rebellion. The men who stayed
at home to hound down their neighbors and
create all the disturbance possible in their
vicinity, are the men who receive the
entire support of such papers as the loyal

The nominations of Hon. Charles M. Boyle
for Auditor General, and Ueu. Wellington

nuiversal favor. Both are young wen, and
Mr. Boyle has distinguished himself as a
member of the Legislature from him native
county of Fayette. His exampla is a good
one for the young men of Pennsylvania to
imitate. But a very few years since he was
a journeyman printer; at iutervals he studied
law, was admitted to practice, and is now
one of the rising lawyers of Western Penn

a fine speaker, and idiot is best of all, is a

left the Bar, to which he had just ken cil

became Company A of the Sixth Pennsyl

known, became the "heroes of a hundred
tights," and it was through bravery and he
roism at such battles to South Mountain and
Antietam that he won and wore the eagle as
a Colonel. The brevet rank of General has
since ken bestowed upon him.
The ticket k a strong one, and Democrats
throughout the State are confident of its
success.
Sorritrart ltenus only desired to separ
ate the States of the South from the rest of
the Union, and they asserted the right of
States to separate when they became dissat
idled ; but the northern rebels, who have
thrust their Puritan forward to inaugurate
civil war, are without any excuse. Their
assaults upon the President aro utterly false
and malicious. Not only have they been
unable to show any law made in accordance
with the Constitution which has been bro
ken by the President, but they have been
again and again chalkuged to show that he
has violated any principle which is contain
ed in their own plattbrui, upon which he
was elected. Ile has refused to aid them
in their effort to make their power perma
nent and they wish to get him out of their
way ; and, to accomplish their nefarious
purposes, they have already brought dis
tress upon the most useful portion of the
people. and are striving to introduce a con
flict which will destroy every vestige of free
government, as well as all hopes of the fu
ture prosperity of the people. A more ex
cuseable effort to destroy the most liberal of
of all the governments Jok tho
history of the world does not present.
Tim MEN who claimed• to be Johnson's
special friusls and supporters, for position
in the "bread and butter brigade," are at
this date chof-fallen. They arc trembling
in their bouts. They know not what to do.
The Democratic part• as a party have noth
ing to do with Johnson and his quarrels.
There are many things that the President
has done that the Democratic party never
can endorse, while on the other hand he bus
done little to be commended by that
party; and for those things alone be will
and does receive the support of the Donee
racy and nufarther.
e.E. —On last Sunday morning about
three o'clock a fire broke out in one of the
stables on the alley eastward of Mill street,
between Mahoning area and the canal.
Thu alarm was given, and the Continental
and Washington Company fire bells were
rung, and soon a crowd was upon the ground
ready to aid in extinguishing the flames.
But this was not affected until six stables
had been consumed, together with four
horses, and a quantity of grain, hay, &a. The
stables were owned as follows : One by
Mrs. T. Brandon, insured, one by Mrs.
Hammer, one by Geo. D. Kipp, two by
Peter Biddy, one occupied by M. J. Grove,
and one by Mrs. Alexander Best, insured.
Two of the horses were owned by Win.
Keiser, ono by Win. Mowrer, and one by Dr.
Ely. The origin of the fire is of course a
mystery. It is supposed to be the work
of an incendiary. But for the calmness of
the night and the heavy body of snow cover
Mg the ground and buildings ; there is no
telling to what extent the flames would have
spread.—Danville Inttiligencer
NEW COURT BOUM- TIIO last Grand
Jury concurred in tbo earnest recommenda

erectior of a new Court House, in Danville.
As this matter has been so often brought to
the attention of the County Commissioners,
by the almost unanimous action of several
grand juries of the county, representing as
they do every township, the Commissioners
will, we doubt not, act promptly in carrying
their recommendations into effect. That a

AFTERNOON BE4NION•
The Committee on Credentials reported
in favor of Lewis C. Cassidy and Robert
Peter, of l'hiladelphia. The Committee
on Permanent Organization reported for
permanent officers ga follows :—President,
Honorable William Hopkins, of Wash
ington, and a long list of Vice Presidents
and Secretaries. Mr. Hopkins returned
Isis acknowledgements fur the honor done
him, and said that today ten States of the
Union were subjugated to an odious system
of military despotism, and that the whole
military power of the government was used
for the avowed purpose of forcing negro su
premacy upon the United States. The par
amount question in the coming Presidential
campaign was whether our republican insti
tutions should be subleettxl to the domination
of the negro race. Time was when the Sen
ate of The United States was adorned by
such members as Clay, Wright, Calhoun,
Forsyth, and a host of others. But how
deplorable was the contrast to-day I As to
the impeachment of the President, he said
that the Coususitteo of Congress had been
unfortunate in the selection of the charges.
Wo have Governors through the country
who are telegraphing to their confederates
in crime, "Stand firm—we will send you a
hundred thousand, and if needs be, three
hundred thousand men." Now, what do
these loyal Governors propose to do ? The
question is simply whether a President hag
the right to select his own cabinet officers,
and if ho has not that right, whether he
has the right to have the opinion of the
Supreme court of the United States upon a
certain question.
Nominations fur Auditor and Surveyor.
General were then made. General George

Lewis C.Cassitly, from the Committee on
Resolutions, reported the following:—
Resolved, That the happiness of the peo
ple and the preservation of our power as a
Itepublic, depend upon the perpetuity of the
Union and the preservation of the Consti
tution and the prompt restoration of each
and al( of the States to the enjoyment of
their rights and functions in the Union is
essential to our progress, our prosperity, and
the protection of our liberties, and Radical
legislation is the barrier thereto.
Resolved, That the Constitution of the
United States it the supreme law; it is
binding upon the people and upon every
department of the government, and it is
the highest duty of those in and out of offi
cial places to yield implicit obedience to all
its provisions until it is changed in the man
ner provided therein ; that the recent at
tempt of the legislative branch of the gov
ernment to usurp (lief:aim of the Executive
and to destroy inc halependenee of the Ju
diciary are deliberate attacks upgp the
plainest provision of the Constitution, in
utter violation of its spirit, and tend to the
government itself.
Resolved, That the Radicals in Congress
have wrung from the people enormous sums
of money, which they have squandered in
reckless extravigance ; that their system of
revenue is ill devised, incongruous and in
equitable ; that rigid economy in every
branch of the public service, a lecrease in
the number of o ffi cials, a reduction in the
army and navy, reforms in the collection of
the revenue, are imperatively demanded;
only by this means can a reducti o n in the
amount of taxation now burped on the in
dustrial and manufacturing interests be at
tained and the payment of our iudebtedness
. .
Resoked, That the Republican pa y
responsible to the country for the delay in
the restoration of the Southern States to
their just relations in the Union, and for the
govennuent of their people by military rule;
that the pm-pose of these measures is to
perpetuate Radical power tltrough the votes
of the illiterate negroes.
Resolred, That in enacting the Tenure of
()they law, the legislative and executive
branches of the government, each for itself,
bad a right to judge of its Constitutionality,
and that in thus exercising the right the Ex
eeutive was only complying with that or
tion of his oath of o ffi ce which required hint
to preserve,protect and defend the Consti
tution of t he Uuitod States, and that it is
the right of every branch of the government,
and of every citizen, to live questions in
volving the Constitutionality of any law
speedily
_adjudicated by the Supenie Court
of the United States, and the nght of the
people to bade said decisions enforced.
Resolved, That the pending impeachment
of the President of the United States is a
gross and reckless abuse of partisan power
without justifiable cause, ant i intended for
the attainment of party purposes at the sac
rifice of the most vital interests of the coun
try.
Resoked, Tbat to return to the specie
paying basis at the earliest possible moment
is essential to the-interests of the people and
the prosperity of the nation.
Resolved, That the national debt should be
paid as rapidliy as is eousistent with the
terms of the laws upon which the sev
eral kites are based.
Resole, ii, That the 5-20 bonds and the
legal tender notes are component parts of the
same financial system, and until the govern
ment is able to redeem the legal tenders in
coin, the holders of these bonds should be
respired to receive legal tenders in payment.
Resolved, That every species of property
should bear its fir proportion of taxation,
and that the exemption of government bonds
therefrom is unjust and inequitable.
Revolved, That we recognize with emotions
of the deepest gratitude, the efforts of the
gallant volunteer soldiers who so freely took
up arms to protect the flag and preserve the
Union, and wo denounce as injustice to them
the efforts of the Radicals to prevent a res
toration of the Union until nepto supremacy
is established in certain Stater:, and negro
equality made the rule in all.
Rcso/ved, That the naturalization of for
eign -born citizens places them on the saute
footing as those born in this country, and it
is the duty of the government to see that all
citizens, naturalized and native, are proteCt
ed in their rights of life, liberty and property
abroad as well as at home, and that in the
view of the Democracy the flag of the coun
try ought and must be made to protect all
our citizens.

There appetite to bo a strong inclination
In sotto quarters, to identify President
Johnson with the Democrat/a party. That
such au inclination should manifest itself in
the illotigrel ranks is not surprising ; but
that prominent democrats should attempt
anythinc of the kind, is seriously objection
able. Hu is nut our man ; we had nothing
to do in placing hint in the position he oe
copies ; and he has given us no special rea
son to think that ho desires our support as
a party. In what particular has ho favor
ed democracy? Has be not steadily and
steadfastly thrown him official patronage into
the hands of the mongrelises? Is not that
party strung now, by means of the official
patronage bestowed upon them? What
right or reason then dietates that we should
do battle for the wan that cripples and stabs
us?
o belcive Johnson to boa shrewd, intel
ligent Dian; disposed to do right. In the
main, we thank him heartily for having
stemmed the current of the mongrel trai
tors in Congress; but he has done many
things wo cannot approve : many things
bard to forget.
We feel it to be our duty to sustain Mr.
Johnson, in every act we believe to be right,
and we shall do so ; but his tight is not
necessarily ours. We believe him to be
neatly right now. We Wiley() him to be
eminently right, and that he will triumph,
in opposing the mongrel treason of Con
gress ; and if necessity should compel, we
shall not find fault with any democrat that
may shoulder the musket in support of" the
best government,"—Johnson and the Con
stitution, when called upon.
The country never did flourish under any
other rule than that of the Democratic par
ty. l'eace, prosperity and happiness have
always suffered:when under republican and
mongrel rule.
To chock the wane of prosperity, the de
struction of free institutions, and restore the
Union under the old flag—which mongrelists
pronounce "a flaunting lie," wo boleive it
to be our duty as a party, to steer clear of
all entangling alliances," and enter upon
the contest with dean hands.— Woachezice

override the Constitution, sot the Supreme

WANIIINOTON, March Bth.
At I o'eloelt to-day the Senate suspended
its ordinary businoes and Chief' /Turtle. C a in .
took the chair as the lira/Ming Orion of the
" Court of itnpeaeliment." The journal of
the proeeedings of yesterday haring been
read, Mr. lAstion, who bed the floor upon
the adjournment yesterday, rose to speak to
the question of permitting Mr. Wade to be
sworn as a trier in the impeaehment against
the President. The Jacobins, by preconcert
had arranged that 'lower(' should makol a
point of order upon further debate under
the twenty-third rule adopted by the Sen
ate and insist that the question should be
decided by the Chief Justice without disons-
Niel), which he (Howard) did. The Chief
Justice required the point of order to be re
duced to writing, and after that had boon
done, and the same read by the Seeretary,
lot (the Chief Justice) decided that the rules
adopted by the Senate for the government
of the " lligh Court of Impeachment'
were not then in force, inasmuch ar the
court had not been organized. From this
decision Meseta Drake and Howard
and the Chief /lustieo submitted the
question to the Senate. hits decision was
sustained. At this point the impeachers
became alum* furious. Mr. Dixion attempt/
ed to proceed with his remarks, but wag
again called to order by Commie. The
Chief./ ustioe decided that he might spa*
on the question. This increased the Itrath
of the Jacobins, and while Sumner, Drake,
and 'Toward were consulting with regard to
the situation, Mr. Ifettdricks obtained the
floor, and after speaking a few minutes in
opposition to Wade's right to be sworn, but
preferring to hare the question decided here
after, withdrew his objection to allowing
Wade to take the oath, and accordingly that
gentlemen presented himself at the Presi
dent's desk and was sworn. The oath was
then administered to the remaining Sena
tors present. On motion of Howard, the
11 , JUM was notified thereof, and soon after
Illes , rs. Bingham, Boutivell, Butler, Will
iams, Wilson, and Logan, managers on the
part of that body, appeared at the bar of
the Senate. Mr. Bingham, on behalf of
the managers, demanded that the President
be called to answer the impeachment prefer
red against him, and then, on motion of
Howard, a summons, returnable on Friday I
next, the Ulth instant, was ordered to be'
issued to the Presidentof the United States,
to appear at the bar of the Senate, or high
Court of Impeachment, at 1 o'clock on that
day. The Court then, at 2 o'clock and fitly
minutes, adjourned until the 13th inst., the
Senate resuming its ordinary legislative
character.
