TnE IMPEACHMENT COMMITTEE.


Messrs. Boutwell,, Thomas, Woodbridge,
Marshall, and Lawrence. of the Judiciary Com
mtee of the House of Representatives were
TO have met here to-day to proceed with the
consideration of the impeachment question
but oply Messrs. Thomas and Marshall were in
the committee room The other members are
pypectea in few days The evidence, as far
., it has been taken, has been printed and fur
nished to the members Of the committee.
Gen, Baker is to be recalled to explain parts of
his testimony 1t is said that this witness not
onlv contradcted himself. but in every m aterial
fact is contradicted by numerous witnesses
The testimony given by Gen. Grant is, per-.
haps, the most interesting yet taken by the
committee 1t was with some difficulty the
General was brought to the stand, believing, it
is said, that some effort would be made to draw
from him his political views. After weeks
Jeav the General was sworn, and testified that
he was consulted by President Lincoln on the
subject of restoring the State of North Carroll
na to her former relations to the Union; that
Mr. Lincoln read him a proclamation he had
prepared on the subject, and that the procla
nation issued by President johnson relative to
The State Of North Carolina was identically
the same as the one which Mr.. Lincoln had
read to him just prior to his death. 1t is fur
ther said that Mr.. Stanton testified before the
committee that he had also drafted a proe|a
nation on this subject, but he failed to furnish
the committee with a copy, although he prom
ised to do so, if it could be done. This be-
comes important, in view Of the fact that the
advocates Of impeachment rest their case prin-
cpally upon the policy Of the President in re-
storing the Southern States. The Judiciary
Committee, it is understood, stand five to four
against impeachment, and the majority report
will be made by the chairman, Hon. James
Wilson, Of Iowa. The four members tavoring
impeachment will probably each make a sepa-
rate report, taking the ground that the recon
stmction policy of the President was vlolative
Of the Constitution, and that the restoration Of
certain railroad property in Tennessee was from
mercehary considerations, and without author
ity Of law. The minority profess to find the
mercenary considerations in the fact that one
Of the conditions Of restoration was the secur-
ing Of certain bonds, for which the faith Of
Tennessee was bound and a portion OF which
the President held. = 1KuSh Cor. Boston Fost

The Impeachment of President johnson.

Fl s are aware Of the saIutarv effect

ment of the President, for miscon-
duet in office: Should there exist
positive and convincing proof of such
misconduct, and the Committee to
whom the impeachment matter has
been referred must be the judges to
take the initasory steps.
Tie object Of Impeachment of the
highest officer Of the government for
mere party orpolitical purposes, would
be tension OF powor that would rem

existence, a fragmentary despot-
ism, and establish precedent BY which
no government would be secure with

But, on the other hand, should the
President whether he be Andrew
johnson, or auy other man. 50 far
forget his oath and other constitution
al obligations. as to introduce pol
icr Of systematic opposition TO the
coordinate branches Of the govern
ment, and drive this great counter
current with the yehemence Of
maniac against the Law making power
and the Judicial Department, then IS
it the proper time and the imperative
duty Of the proper authority to cast
constitutional web of restraint about
the subject Of such inadvertency, not
to say downright violation Of Law and
solemn oaths
The proper authority Of the govern

the age fall as readily beneath its
power as the most ignorant and degra-
ded. The Madison ,To,s77laI of the lst

son Esq. Of that city, from delirium
tremeus. Mr.. Johnson was a man of
unusual gift as a public speaker,
fine scholar and rich culture. As a
lawyer he had few equals before a
Jury. But an ungovernable appetite
for intoxicating drinks was the weak
point Of his character. At times he
fought against the demon but had not
sufficient determination to conquer his
enemy, and he has fallen. as many
