Congress and the President
We transfer to our columns from the
Pittsburg. Gazeteethe following masterly ex
positiOn of tho - rolative powers of Congress,
and the Presided.' It is peculiarly appro
priate in view of the' early assembling of
Congress that the people should le correctly
informed upon the law and historical prece
dent:in emergencies such ns the present.
, The conflict between Congress and the
Piesident in regard to tho.reconstruction of
—lll.o„r9h,el§tatcs,ill soon bo renewed unless
the latter gives inaiid"licknoWledges himself
beaten L—a thing it is not probable that ho
will do. The controversy-is an exceedingly
imjortant one. Except the great rebellion
of the slava ,States, so recently crushed,
nothing it the country's history lies been, so
'consequential: .
One of the west remarkable features of it
is, the claim, so continually put forth by
A
'amt. Evorything that Jis has done in re
gard to reconstruction, he claims' to - nave
been dono by the . govei - nment. Ito calls all
his acts. in regard to the matter the acts of_
the government, and everything that Con
gress hai done ho calls opposition -to the gov-.
ernment. In all his harangues he charac
terizeo the controversy, not as a controversy
between Congress and himself, not as a con
troversy between the legislative and executive
departments of the government, but as a
controversy between Congress and the gov
ernment. It is in pursuance of this theory
that ho characterizes Congress as a body
hanging loosely on the verge. of the govern
ment, and stigmatizes the leading members
of Congress ass - traitors who
_deserve to he
hung. . _ _ .
It must be obvious to every one that this
claim is a very extraordinary and a very
dangerous one. lirentirely ignores the leg
islative and judicial departments, and makes
the executive department all in all. It de
stroys nt ono blow the whole system, of
cheeks and balances which- our fathers in
framing the government, •so• carefully pro-
vided, and which the Constitution so anx
lously.cherishes. It put% not only the pow
er to make and to execute the laws, - butAho
Purse and the sword, all into the hands of
the President, and 'makes hini j- an absoltite 1
and irresponsiidegespot.
:Out government is framed after the model
of the British government. Th6 . lyb6 have
the same departments, and in both triofunc
tions of the several departments aro "the
same: With us the President standS in
place of the King, Congress ,in place of Par-
Hament, and. our courts in the place of -the
. English courts.'. Under the British consti
tution the members of the House of Com

In England the House of Commons, being
chosen by the people, represents the people;
and the same is the case with our Hottio of
Representatives. In England Parliament
is omnipotent, and its omnipotency rests ul
timately in the House of C. in mons. In our
government Congress ocCupics the same po
sition that Parliament does in the British
• govern - meth= Whatever id - °mill - potency
- there is in our government, is vested in Con
gress, and it rests ultimately in the House of
Representatives, The HousP"of Commons
' having the absolute control of the national
purSeican, by stopping the supplies, lay the
King and House of Lords prostrate at its
feet, and our House of Representatives hay
' ing the same Oootrol over the national purse,
can, with equal case lay the President- and
the Senate prostrate nsits feet. This not
only so' as a fact, but it was intended by the
' . framer's of the Constitution to be so.
. nut that Which more than anything else
\ Makes the Rothe of Commons irresistible, is
- 1 the power of impeachinent, and the same
-_,,power in Our House-of Representives,, i maes
'' '' '' it equally irresistible. The people are the
ultimate source of all political power. The'
• House of Reprentstives stands in the place
of the people. It speaks foithe people, and
~. _acts for the-people. Its vac°. is-the people's
voice ; its acts the potpie's acts ; its articles
of impeachment the people's articles of itn
. ,1 peachment ; its condemnation the pee
pie'i condemnation. The judges of the
. Supremo Court may pronounce an act
of Congress unconstitutional, but the House
slrf Representatives may impeach them for
doing so, and the impeachment being sus-•
tained s , they are not-only removcd froth 'cif

to hold.;•any-office_ under _the_government_
'' The judgment of,: the Senate upon an im
peachment by-the Heil's% of Representatives
' r is final and conclusive. There can be no
peal from it—uo escape from it. 'The Pres
ident may bo impeached for an_sbuse of any
of the powers which the constitution vests in
him, as, for instance, the veto River ort.lie
power to grthitdiardens and armistice. He
may veto an act passed by both Reuses of

to repeat itself from time to time as human

of to-day are made of the same stuff as the
Anglo-Saxons who beheaded CHARLES and
STRAFFORD ; they have the same love of

SMALL CHANGE
Tho-Philadelphia North Ainerican, of is
recent date has the -following article_on_ari_
important question of National linanccf: •
By reference to the November statement
of the coinage at the United States Mint, it
will be seen that the month of Oetober has
been busily occupied by the new director in
following up the suggestions wfi'mado - some
time back, as to the necessity of providing
more of the new copper coins immediately„
in order to enable us to dispense with the
three and five cent fractional currenby. -
Dating October the enormous number of
1i043,000 new copper. five cent piecos-were
coined and put in circulation, which will nc
count for the increased numbers of them now
in use. Previously the "heaviest of the work
done at the Mint was in coining cents, but
the new manngoment, rightly deeming that
tivn-have-new a greater need of something
else, bits reduced the cent COhlago to sus,goo
LpieeesTand-in-addition---to-the-fives-before
mentioned, has coined 85'7,000 twos and
164,000 threes. - . .• • .
Too mush. attention cannot be given to
this work, for until we'have the means of
accommodating the people • with the coins
they need so much in change, it is sheet
nonsense to talk about a return to a specie
basis. The coins fqr actual use are-not now
in-thcountry, and we must make the Mint
provide them at the earliest . possible mo
ment. have coined enough cents to
answer every possible purpose. Lot us now
give the people tho same abundance of twos,
threes and copper fives, pad. in ties mean,
time let us continuo to deneand orthe Trons
ury department the Cancelling of the filthy,
ragged and abominafiTTe throe cent notes.
It is certainly a disgrace to the currency of

Wo are now able tc; " "aiap ' ense with it, and we
ought to do so at-once. Vs do not know
whether the Treasury Department is now
issuing any fresh throes ; but it ought not to
do so. Moreover, a time should be fixed
for theredemption of all now in use, and all
received at the Treasury Department should
without exception bo cancelled.
We must make a begining in this molter
somewhere, and we could no better do so•
than by thusgetting rid - of - W. - I - lowest and
worst forms of -- our tsed- and - misaruble
paper fractional currency. 'Phis„would••bo.
much better employment for, the Treasury
Department them reducing the greenllack
currency, which - is so universally preferred
by the people. If the Mint keeps on issuing

fractional currency afloat except fifties and

is an affair of no small consequence. The

The General, id closing remarked that the
Methodist Church is ono of progress, its
cotirso is onward and upward. Everywhere

where you go in the mountains and the

National Bank Note Currency

have 'always been .par all over the United

CARL Suunz, in his- papur, the Detroit
Post, "lets up" on anybod or •-
thing. In speaking of the conversio the
Chicago Times and Philadelphia Age, it
says : "It has been considered in Democrat

phia hzquircr says that Hon. Thaddeus Ste
vens has arrived in that city and taken up
hirold - quarters - on - Capitol - 1.10 - has
prepared a bill for immediate passage to reg
ulate removals from office. It provides that
no ono_rejected by the Senate stroll be again
nominated or appointed to any office . for.
three years. Mr. Stevens says ho was rather
conservative last winter, but is now radical'
and expects to continuo so the remainder of
his days. • The idea of attempting to barter
with the South to-buy-from -them what - ini
considered Congress has the right And ought
to demand--is very distasteful ,to :him; and
the adVocates of universal amnesty for uni
versal suffrage will find in him a bitter and
effective opponent. Ho does not consider
that' the Southern, Stiitcs aro needed to ratify.
the QonstitutionAV: - AtheAdmonterand-7 that
when two-thirds of the twenty-six States
now, represented, have . ratified the amend 7,
Monts he 'considers them carried. • •

then they have a Constitutional right to tin

that we can Mee by which the country can be

" The great Democratic majority in Now
- York city was overcome by the still greater
gains for the Radicals in the counties in the
State, and victory remains with - the latter.
—ln-the-other-States-which--held-elections
on Tuesday, Radicalism ran wild', except in
'Delaware and Maryland. The State of
Butlenand Banks took the.lead in the ex
travagance, both in majority, and by the
,election_of_ several _ffegroes to the Legisla-_,
tore. The latter circumstance, indeed, was
- very appropriate for Massachasetts; and .it
would. have been still more - happy and fit
ting if she had elected none but negroes,

in Congress.
What game the Radicals propose to play
With - -the peace and prosperity of the country,
now that they have established their sway
for another Congressional term, we shall see
soon enough. There is only one solace for
the - South : Southern oppression is national
wholeness. Southern unrest is greral finan
cial disorder. rSOuthern prostration is,gen
eral disturbance and distress.
Tlic result of the oleetionh n - Del Ware

The Lynchburg Virginian thus comments
upon tho Legislative election of two colored
citizens of Massachusetts :- •
Our readers were advised by telegraph
yesterday that Massachusetts had done her
sell' the high honor of sending two colored
men to her Legislature. She might have
done still bettor, atußconstituted the whole
Legislature of geritfol l nwq_celor_.
the - two niihappy gentlerutinlipho have:been
chosen inay be embarrassed by the - litek - o - f
suitable associates. They cannot have mach
respect ,for lt the poor white trash" by which
they will be surrounded. They may claim,
also, that something more is duo to the sen
timent that is all-prat/tiding in Massachusetts
than this meagre representation of a class
-for whom white seen in the Old Bay State
are willing to enslave and degrade their - own
race.
Two gentlemen of color, amid several
nuncirect howling dervishes of abolition and_
Miscegenation, 'is not 'a 'fair - proportion, as
MI must admit, of the law-makers: - But
this, perhaps, is only the liegining ; the first
auspicious sign of that glorious era that is
before us, when the shape, of a man's nose
and heel; the color - Of his skin, and the odor
exhaled from his body, are
_to be - of triviid

. We havo the pleasure of informing all who

ment of this- plice, that Mr. J. C. Strong
has lately undertaken the entorpriso of mak
ing and publishing a Map and Directory of
Carlisle:- The-Map is to-be-engraved on a
large scale ; it will. contain twelve. square
feet, and will show all the town lots, giving
the name's, of their owners, and show whoth
or they are occupied by thorn or by tenants ;

lieve that the publication will prove of great
advantage in faciliating people in town, as
well as those from the surrounding country,
in the transaction of their business, as well
_as a source of gratification to those who have
'it, and will havo an influence' in concentrat
ing the trade of thu Cumberland Valley
here, and, in short, give us the character
and reputation of a city. Wo hope that Mr.
Strong's enterprise will prove a ;success, and
receive patronage sufficient to enable him to

ANOTHER —.Last week ABA
LIAM glitillFl: 4 , copperhead Justice of the
Peace, was appointed Seger Inspector of this
district vice Wm. M. CIiENOWETII, removed.
This office is worth from-thirty to fifty dol
lars,per annum and can only be equitably ad
tuiniSt'ered by a person acquainted practi
cally with the manufacture of segars; Mr.
CIIDNOWETII though a cripple, is a practical
niter maker, and has been a faithful officer.
But helves not poor enough to do reverence
to "My Policy" and had to be sacrificed;
and as the scholarly and astute DEIVUE'F had
only one office, the appointment was given to
to him. If it were possible for the copper.
head party to feel any such emotion as shame,
we would think this transaction would pro
duce it.
