OROvILLE. SATURDAY. JAN. IL, 1867

LOOKS UGLY.--We have heretofore been under
the impression. that there would be no atsempt on
the part of Congress to impeach President John
son. more especially so sinee the determination to
pass Law converting the Fortieth Congress OF the
4th Of March next Since the recent decision of the
s1preme Court against the legality of military
commissions for the trial Of civil cases which II Is
claimed renders the Freeimen's Bills a nuliity,
the determination to impeach johnson seems to
have taken fresh start. On the 5th Of January.
Loan of Missouri offered resolution, in substance
that to secure the fruits Of he victories during the
war, it is the imperative duty of the Thirty-ninth
Congress, without delay. to accomplish the follow
ing objects: First the impeachment of the officer
now exercising the functions Of President of the
United States and his removal from Office, for the
high crimes and misdemeanors of which he is no
toriously guilty, and which render him unsafe TO
exercise the powers he uulawfally assumes; Sec
ond, to provide for the Executive Department.
Thru, to provide means for the immediate recon-
strncton OF the States lately in rebellion except
Tennessee; Fourth, TO secure by Federal authority
the right of franchise for the negroes in the South
ern States. This created great excite ment, but a
motion to lay it on the table negatived, 40 to
1903. Ashley, of Ohio, Immediately arose and OBJ
tanned leave question of privilege to have read
by the Clerk the following:
81 do impeach Andrew Johnson Vice President
and acting President of the United States for high
crimes and msdemeanors. charge him with usur-
patton OF power and violation Of lawn that he has
corruptly abused the appointing power; in that he
has corrupty disposed Of the public property Of
die United States in that he has corruptly inter
fered in elections, and committed acts, and con-
spired with others to commit acts. which, in the
contemplation of the Constitution, are high crimes
and misdemeanors: therefore. be it
Resoired, That the Committee on the Judiciary
be and are hereby authorized to enquire into the
official conduct of Andrew johnson, Vice Presi
dent, dschargng the powers and duties Of Presi-
dent of he United States, and report to this House
whether, in their opinion, said Andrew johnson
while in said office, has been guilty Of acts corrup
ting the Government of the United States or any
department officer thereof or whether said An
drew johnson has been guilty of any act, or con-
spired with others to do acts, which in the conte
plation OF the Constitution high crimes
guring the interpositon of the constitutional
powers of this House; and that said Committee
have power to send for persons and papers aud TO
administer the customary oaths."
Spaulding, Of Ohio, moved to lay the resolution
on the table, which motion was negatiyed by vote
of 80 ayes to 100 noes. After which the resolution
was adopted. So the question of the Impeachment
of Andrew johnson is now before the Judiciary
Committee of the House of Representatives of the
United States.
