From tile Charleston Courier.

There is one circumstance attending the
impeachment of Judge Chase, which we
will notice at present, viz. the publication
of the documents accompany the report OF
the committee appointed to enquire, &c.
Thatprecoguitory evidence taken for the
purpose of establishing charge of INSIDE
meanor, &c. may be ex-parte need not be
questioned but as this is in its nature par
tial, it should only be presumed to be truth
before trial, for evidence must only be ac-
knowledge truth, or proof, when it fails
to be overthrow or set aside by emendato-
ny or exculpatory evidence; and that such
defeat hath been the result in some cases is
well known; different perceptions and pre-
dispositions producing different testimo-
MES concerning the same fact, aided by the
distinction between telling the truth and
telling the zUl0le truth.
But the committee, or rather the house
itself, have published this e~-tarte testimo-
ny, whereby allegations or presumptions
OF proof pass for proof itself, and thereby
appear not only to prejudicate but to de-
ceive the people, by inducing them byi0ri
to conclude that Judge Chase must be gull
ty.
Ifjustice was their only object by pu.
nishing crimes and misdeme anors in the
person of Judge Chase, and that upon full
probation or proof only, they certainly have
taken singular way of obtaining it; for
they have unquestionably Gas far as they
coaldl anticipated the result without pro-
baton, and pledged themselves to the ma
ton to find him guilty. Injustice was their
only object could they not have satisfied
themselves with what evidence they had
collected as authorizing them to substanti-
ate a charge, and have let the report go be-
fore the house Immediately (and not to re-
tain it fourteen days on purpose to prevent
its being acted upon this SESSION. that the
charge and documents might SO before the
senate, that the trial thus speedily had
might be published, and that the zOh0ls
truth might go to the public at once.
When these things are fully represented,

brothers were insulted, and our Gallo
patriots trembling Expresses were sent
to Amsterdam and to Germany, to an
nounce this joyful news. What made this
report gain ground was, the oisible anxiety
of our Directors, and the surprising modest
language of the French Generals, who, in
four hours, sent SIX couriers to Zealand
AID to North Holland. From the want Of
patriotism, however, in our uagratefM
countrymen, they were SO long detained
on the road, that it was not until last Mon
day, we knew that the firing originated
from Admiral Verneul, trying the strength
of our gun-ooats, Of which many broke to
pieces, troes carrying too heavy metal.
At che return OF the courier, our French
oppressors laaghed in their turn. The
Government achieves, which had been
packed up, weIe unpacked the orange CO.
lours disappeared; a gloom of discomfort
was universally spread, and while one sex
were sjghing, the Others were crying. Sc
veral of our citizens were arrested by or

of our French tyrant. For forty-elght
hours, nothing was talked of but hanging,
guiIlotinng, or shooting en- masse. But

head-quarters al Utrecht, last Wednesday,
