THE TEyURE OF OFFICE VETO.

lmmsGlAbtly IoAADHitif- 10y ~ -
which we publish this morning the
President returned to the Senate the
measure known as the Tenure Of Office
Bill, with message Disappearing 1T.
The substance of the bin is in the first
section, which provides that any person
holding any civil Office, to which ne has
been appointed by and with the advice
and consent oft Senate, and every per
son who shall hereafter be appointed to
any such Office shall become duly quail
fed to act therein, is and shah be elected
TO hold such Office until a successor shall
have been appointed by the President,
with the advice and consent Of the Sens
ate, and duly qualified, and that the Sec :
retaries of State, ofIthe Treasury, Of War
of the Navy and Of the Interior, the Post
master-GeneraI. and the Attorney Gener-
ais shall hold their Offices respectively for
and during the term Of the President by
whom they may have been appointed, and
for one month thereafter subject to re-
moyal by and with the advice and con-
sent of the Senate, and in effect deprives
the President of his power to remove Oh
ficaIs without the concurrence of the
Senate.
The message goes back to the origin OF
the government, and citing from historical
records, prove conclusively, both from
them and such commentators as story,
Kent and Webster, that the power OF res
moval is vested in the Executive. 1t
proves also, that the power has been adj
mitted to exist by previous Legislation Oh
Congress, and adjudged to be an indie
feasible function of the President by the
Supreme Court In addition to this array
Of testimony in behalf of the constitu-
tional power over this subject which IS
sought to be transferred to Congress, the
inexpediency of their revolutionary pro-
ceeding is cogently argued. The message
concludes with manly and vehement
protest against legislation unwarranted
by the organic law, and pronounees tins
to be such in its letter and intent
The Radical majority, however neither
needed neitherIfact, argument, authority OF
the great expounders nor protest, but
proceeded to pass the bill over the obJec-
tons, and effected another step in the rev
olution of the government
The Thirty ninth Congress has closed,
and sent its work into history. Its ma
iority has displayed all the will, and it
remains to be seen whether it has not ac-
eomplished its object of subverting the
constitution, and constructing for the
people, a portion of whom seem to have
been willing dupes, while another portion
have been passive and helpless spectators,
an oligarchy in substitute for free Repub-
ican government But no part of their
wicked work is chargeable to Andrew
johnson. With unswervering faith in
the people, without the cooperation OF
the people, nobly contending fOrthe rights
Of the people, he has stood upon the
battlements of the constitution, and for
every blow stricken against it, he has re-
turned a goodly one in its defence. If
faction has triumphed, the constitution
and its sworn upholder, faithful to the
last will Gnll together

us to- d0gmatize or dictate; the South is
just as free to refrain from action as it is to
act. But "there is tide in the affairs of
men" and it IS for the South 10 judge for
itself whether there is prospect of COM
pensating advantages, sufficient to justify it
in withholding its assistance in the Presi-
dental election.

A Notable Case.

The Superior Court in session at Worcester,
mas just tried, for the second time. a some " hat
exceptional case, with features which ma se iG
worth noting briefly in this correspondence.
Inc plaintiff on his way TO q camp meeting At
Martbas Vineyard, took passage on a steam.
boat running thither from New Bedford. ana
CROWDED With an excursion party OF q thoa.
sand or more. AS he stood on the deck a sm III
life boat, suspended over his head, became de-
tached from its fastenings, several passengers
havihg stepped into 1t, and, makinE too heavy
load for the suspsndRg bolt, the plain tin
was struck with a blow which has ruined his
health, rendering him incapable Of labor, and
VIII probably ultimately send him to an In
sane asylum. The steamboat company were
sued, in the inland county where the plain
un lived, for damages, and verdict OF nine
thousand odd dollars 1.-THE sum claimed being
fifteen thousand dollars) was rendered some
time ago. This verdict being set aside. for va
rious uses. by Chief Justice Allen, Just be-
fore his retirement, second trial took place
last WEEP, and the defendants, naturally
alarmed at the magnitude OF the first verdict
for the capital of the company is only thirty
thousand doliars-made a desperate effort to
reverse the result. Ex-Governor Andrew was
engaged as the most eminent and able counsel
TO be had, and his plea, which was so fortu.
naie to hear, was most ingenious and elo-
quent. The ground taken, OF course, was
that the accident, caused, ss it was, by the
conduct OF passengers in getting into q place
where they had no business 10 be- was
one Of those occurrences which no human
foresight can prevent and for the re-
suits Of which The corporation on whose
deck 1t occurred could not properly
be held liable. Mr.. Aldrich, OF Worcester, ar
gued the case, as before, for the plaintiff, and
put his case with a great deal of skill and
power. The jury, TO the astonsh ment OF
everybody, the case being generally regarded
as at least doubtful, We're out only fifteen min.
uies, ind brought in a verdict OF ten Thousand
eight hundred dollars for the plaintiff con-
sidelably larger amount than before. The ten
dencIes of juries to hold passenger carriers
responsible in the strictest sense OF the word
fkfv ~ 10 "a nd 1frnh Anfr
them was never more strikingly manifest.
The case goes up on exceptions for the rul linR
OF higher court on questions OF law, and the
damages, when paid, Will be more likely to go
to the widow and children Of the injured man
than to the sufferer himself-BostOn Cores

EI0pement of a Base Husband.

A heartless wretch named Richard Burk a
carpenter, who has been employed in this ctty,
and has wife and three childres in New AL
bany, few months ago formed the acqu quaint-
ance OF woman named Lizzie Smith, and
became deeply enamored OF her. He repre-
sented himself as widower, and they were
on terms OF the grs atest intimacy. / or sew
eral months past Burk has failed to provide
for his family, and bis wife, who has been sick
and confined to her bed. and her children have
been left utterly destitute. Indeed, she did not
nave sufficlent money 10 pay for the medicine
prescribed by her Physician. The wife also
observed that he had grown excesdi q gly abn-
sive to her and the children, and apparently
indifferent to their suferipgs.
Burk failed to 60 over to his home on Satur.
day night last, and Sunday having elapsed
without hearing from him. his wife became
uneasy, and resolved TO come here and see
what was the matter. Accordingly she visited
our city on Monday, and soon ascertained the
heart-rendipg tact that her husband had de-

templated leaving the city that night, in COM

their effects were packed together and a. the

accounts they had got no tidings Of the recreanu
lovers, and it is believed that they got away on
Monday night. : y h..
Burk as been married nearly twenty years,
during which time, until he was smitten with
the charms Of Lizzie Smih b, he has treated hts
family kindly and provided for their wants.
Mrs. Burk is highly respectable lady, and
generally esteemed by her friends and ac-
quaintances IN New Albany. We hope that a
swift retribution will oyertake the unnatural
