TERMS FOR 1868.

congressionaI Proceee,tne,s.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 26.-In yesterday
House proceedings under the call of Estates,
bills to amend the national currency act,
pledging the faith of the country to pay
the 5-20s ifseoin, to repeal the tax on cot
ton, to fix the value of legal tender notes,
and in reference to the annexation of Mexi.
co were all referred.
Under the same call Mr. Butler, of Massa-
chusetts, introduced bill providing for
the payment of portion of the national
debt in lawful money of the United States,
which was referred.
Mr. Robinson's resolution for the in~
parchment Of Minister Adams was referred
to the Committee on Foreign Affairs.
The reading of the report on impeach-
ment was commenced, but on motion was
dispensed with and only the conclusion of
ii was read. 1t declares Andrew johnson
guilty of high crimes and misdemeanors,
and embraces resolution for his impeach
ment. The minority report was also sub
mitted by the four dissenting members of
the committee. The consideration of the
whole subject was postponed until Wednes-
day, December 4th.
A bill was introduced declaring the effect
of the impeachment of any civil officer of
the government.
Under suspension of the rules, resolu-
ton forbidding any further purchase of
territory was adopted.

admission as a new State but when
once invested with that high character,
the question passes beyond the power Of
Congress. The clause in question rs IN
tended as a protection of the States
against the overthrow Of their republican
constitutions by the more powerful cen>
trail government 1t commands a guar
anty of their perpetuity by Congress,
and forbids that body to make, or permit
any power, interior or exterior to the
State, to make infractions upon a repub-
lican form of government existing in a
State The very term guaranty as
Mr.. Madison says, presupposes the exist
ence of the thing to be maintained and
made sure.
The opposite view to this is rank Radi-
ealism, and the fourth section OF the
fourth article cannot be invoked to sup
port it,
