The Programme.

-hJi to the Reconstruction Com mittee
meant nothing more or less tlan re-
ferring to the new Congress, which
commences its session on the fourth
of next month. Believing thus, the
Herald proceeds to lay out work for
the new body. The first thing to be
done, of course, is tire impeachment
and trial OF the President, which it
expects will be completed by his CON
vlctlon and removal from Office.
With his arraignmcnt, the Herald
says, he will probably be suspended,
and, by new law passed for the pur-
pose, Gen. Grant may be appointed
70 supercede him during his suspcn-
sion and after his removal, for the
remnant OF his uneXpircd term.
In the next placH, with a new Con-
gress, o new President Of the Senate
will be elected; the choice will be
made, in the absence Of any new law
onthe subject, as & temporary elcc-
ton; and the Wc.,N,{ suggests Fessan-
len, Trumbuli or Wade for tl!2 posi-
Gion.
After having thus got ria OF ''tho
stumbling-b!ocll nov at the head of
the Executive Department., the rati-
:ication of the constituti utional amend
anent will have been perfected, not
Dy all the States, but by "thrcc-
iourths OF the States now constituting
She Government Of the United
States The Herald says that only
threc States are lacking to complete
the work, and that, then, the duty
will aeyolve upon Congress OF pro-
claiming the amendment part and
y;arcel OF the Federal Constitution
the supreme law Of the land-bear-
ing alike upon the inside and outside
States and the Territories
The oracle then says:
<'With this Proclamation by law, it
%lll become the duty Of the Presi-
:teslt, under such All enabling Act as
Congress may pass, on the basis of
This amendment, to proceed to the
reconstruction of the rebel States;
and a refusal, in this matter, to exc
cute the law, will of itself be Il suf!i-
scIent cause for mpeachment. This
IS the right way for Southern recon
struction-it is building on consti-
tutional foundation TINT will stand,
and it covers all the securities needed
for the future The States and pco-
pie represented in the Government t
are the Government: the excluded
States and people torfciting their
rights i'll the Government, by their
rebellion, are subject to tn" will Of
Congress rs to the terms of their
restoration. President johnson, in
recognizing Them rs members law
fully restored by lis own acts, and,
IN defiance of Congress, clearly be
comes !, su!,jecj for impeachment.
With his removal, US the Constitution

ans place, the saving virtues of the
amendment will nj once be undo =

TIE IMrEA AcHMENr-GIx. GRANT.
The Washington correspondents Of the
Heruld, under date Of the 3lst ult.
says:
1t is stated that tho Committee on
the Judiciary will soon summon Gen.
Grant before them, for the purpose
of obtaining such information from
him, if possible, as will test his fealty
to the President. Should they find
him leaning toward his policy so
strongly as to forbid the hope that he
will desert it, it is said the impeach-
mcnt project will be abandoned; !;
while, on the other hand, if there is
rerson to believe that he would not
actively interfere for the execution Of
that policy, impeachment will then
be prosecuted. The committee have
other designs i'll bringing Gen. Grant
before them, which will appear in
due time.

be the proceedings Of the Souther

AN INSTANCE OF PERsEvERANCE.--One
morning during the late war an officer,
riding through the woods of North Ala.
bama, was attracted by tall, lank coun.
trymau, who seemed to be using his
best endeavors to reach the top, of a
large hickory tree, Scarcely had he
gained the summit, when, rapidly de.
scendlng, he started up another one
few yards off, This strange proceeding
was continued at least dozen times,
the countryman climbing and descending
one tree after another for nearly quarter
of mile. The officer at length, over,
taking him, inquired the cause of his
eccentric gyrations. 4 was lynn asleep
under yon hickory, when darned
squirrel dropped a shell bark into my
eyei I'm goin' to worry him; I'm goin'
to worry him TILL he leaves the settle-
meut, if die in the attempt
