SOME OF THE PROBABLE RESULTS
OF AN EFFORT TO DEPOsE THE
PRESIDENT.

OF AN EFFORT TO DEPOsE THE |
PRESIDENT.
Upon this subject the Albany Erening
Journal, one Of the Oldest, ablest and most
influential of Republican papers, says:
If an impeachment were ordered, il would
not merely be the trial Of AEDREw JOHN
son, but also the arraigament of party
which represents a very great and exceed
ingly active minority Ia large majority,
counting the South in,) Of the American
people That party accepts the President
as lis leader and exponent. It susiains his
policy with energy and determination. 1t
defends, upon what it calls constitutional
grounds, the very acts which are relied upon
to Justify the process of Arrangement. 1t
says that any attempt TO withdraw this
power from the Executive would, in itself,
be usurpation. We cannot doubt that, if
articles Of impeachment were to be prepared,
the Democracy would consider itself as
having been placed at the bar-would repu-
date the Judgment as the illumination of one
party against the other, and would stand
ready to uphold the President in a refusal
to submit, though that refusal should result
in civil war, as would be most likely, in the
SAClteu STATE VI Lhe puDiiC ihiiuj OSiLdi" ~
prevail.
Let us imagine the condition of affairs !:
A Chief Magistrate condemned by court
whose jurisdiction is denied at the outset by
several millions of American citizens he
refuses to obey the process. The Senate de-
clares him out Of Office but he persists in
the exercise of the prerogative. Congress
then, representing the Government, under
takes to GUST him but he summons to his
aid what military he can command, and pre-
pares to test the question of force. Mean
while, the violence and turbulence engen-
| dered at the national capital extend through
every section of a country not yet fully re-
covered from the delirium of war. Parties
are developed in each town, city or hamlet,
holding excitedly the most pronounced opin-
! ions on one side or other, and ready to fight
for those opinions. A spark might at any
moment drop into such a magazine, and
then-what then We of the North
scarcely know what civil war means, as they
have learned it, who have seen street di-
vided against street, and family against fam
| lily, law obliterated, order destroyed, civil
securities overthrow, and neighbor ar
rayed in mortal enmity against neighbOr.

ease, they purge outthe foul hum9rs which
breed and grew distemper, stimulate sluggish
or disordered organs into their natural ac-

to the whole system. Not only do they cure
the everyday complaints Of everybody, but
also formidable and dangerous diseases
While they produce powerful effects, they
are at the same time, in diminished doses,
the afest and best physic that can be en-
plcyed for children. Being sugar-coated,
they are pleasant TO take and, being purely
Vegetable, are free from any risk of HARM
Cures have been made which surpass belief,

the suspicion of untruth. Many eminent

For hlnself he could ask no pardon. Tor the

for which to be pardoned. The asking for
pardon admitted guilt, aud for himself he
was conscious Of no guilt. He had obcyed

ADJOURNMENT.


The first session Of the Thirty Ninth
Congress closes to-day. II died amid no
regrets from any quarter. TO degree ut
terly without precedent 10 the history Of the
United States. it has been distinguished by
a reckless disregard Of principle and Pro-
pretty. rancor and passion, a contempt OF
law and liberty, an extravagant waste OF
money and neglect of wholesome leglsla-
tiOn.
II found the wounds Of civil war closing |;
It has re opened and infamed them. II
found one. third OF the Union unrepresent-
ed; il leaves il unrepreseutsd. Il found
the currency bad; il leaves it worse. II

stitutlon il ended by totally disregarding

licle Of just legislation, while TO rewart
