Everts continued his argument for the defence. He
contended that Mr. Johnson had a right, and was in ditty
bound, to procure the decision of the courts in cases
where he honestly behaved the laws of Congress to be
anconetitutienal. Mr. Stanton's removal had only been
attempted, not accomplished, and no forte had either
base toed or intended. The evidence had proved that
the removal of Mr. Stanton was necessary for the har-
monious working of the government, yet the managers
sough, to procure the removal and disqualification of Mr.
Jobactilm, which was the maximum punishment the court
mold enforce.
