right to such interpositlon against
the execution of such law by the
President.
Congress is the Legislative De.
partment of the Government; the
President is the Executive Depart
ment. Neither can be restrained
in its action by the acts of both,
when pefOrmed,are in proper cases,
subjects to its cognizance.
The impropriety of such interfer-
ence will be clearly seen upon the
consideration ofits probable c0nse-
quences. Suppose the bill filed and
injunction prayed for be allowed.
If the President refuse obedience,
it is needless to observe that the
Court is without power to enforce
its process. If, on the other hand,
the President complies with the
order of the Court and refuse to ex-
ecute the act of Congress, is it not
clear that a collision may occur
between the executive and leglsla.
tive departments Of the Govern
ment. May not the House of Re.
presentatiyes impeach the Presi-
dent for such refusall and in that
case could this Count interpose in
behalf of the President. thus en-
dangered by its mandate, and re-
strain by injunction the Senate of
the United States from sitting as o
court of impeachment
Should the strange spectacle be
offered to the public wonder of an
attempt by this Court to arrest the
proceedings in that Court, these
questions answer themselves. 1t
is true a State may file an original
bill in this Court, and it may, be
true in some cases such bill may
filed against the United States; but
we are fully satisfied that this Court
has no jurisdiction of a bill to en-
join the President on the perform
ance of his official duties, and that
no such bill ought to be received
by the United States. 1t has been
suggested that the bill contains a
prayer, that if the reliefsought can
not be had against Andrew john
son as President, it may be granted
against Andrew Johnson as citi-
zen Of Tennessee. An injunction
against the execution of an act, of
Congress, by and incumbent of the
Presidential office, can not be re.
ceiyed, whether 1T describes him as
President, or simply as citizen'of
a State. The motion for leave to
file the bill is, therefore, denied.1q

The Military Government Bill in
the Supreme Court.

WASHINGTON, April 15.--In the
U. S. Supreme Court to-day, the
Chief-Justice delivered the opinion
of the Court in the case Of The
State of Mississippi VS.. Andrew
johnson and L. o. @. Ord, on mo-
tion for leave to file bill, as follows:
A motion was made some days
since, in behalf of the State of Mis-
sissippi, for leave to file bill in be,
hall Of said State, praying this court
to perpetually enjoin and restrain
Andrew Johnson, and E. o. @. Ord,
commanding the District of Mis-
sissippi and Arkansas, from execut-
ing or in any manner carrying out
certain acts of Congress. The acts
referred to are those of March Cd
and %, 1867, commonly known as
Reconstruction acts"
The Attorney-General objected
to leave asked for upon the grounds
that no bill which makes the Pres
ident defendant and seeks an IN
junction against him to restrain
the performance ofhis duties should
be allowed to be filed in this court.
This point has been fully argued,
and we shall now dispose Of it.
We shall limit our inquiry to the
question presented by the objec-
ton, without expressing an opinion
on the broader issues discussed in
the argument whether in any case
the President of the United States
may be required by process of this
Court to perform purely, ministeri-
al acts required by law, or may be-
held amenable in any case other
wise than by impeachment for
crime.
The single point which requires
consideration is this: Can the Pres
ident be restrained from carrying
out an act of Congress alleged to
be unconstitutional? 1t is assum-
ed by counsel for the State Of Mis-
sissippi, that the President, in exc
cution of the reconstruction acts,
is required to perform mere minis
terial duty. In this assumption
there is, we think, oonfounding Of
the terms ministerial and executive
which are. by no means. equivalent

THE OLD HOMESTEAD.

All here it l., the dear old place,
Unchanged through all these years;
How like some sweet, familiar face
My childhood's home appears!
The grand old trees beside the door
Still spread their branches wide;
The river wanders as of yore,
With sweetly murmuring tide;
The distant hills look green and gay,
The flowers are blooming wild,
And everything seems glad to-day,
AS when j was a child.
Regardless how the years have flown,
Half wondering stand,
/ catch no fond endearing tone,
/ clasp no friendly hand;
think my mothers smile to meet,
list my fathers call,
pause to hear my brothers feet
Come bounding through the hall;
But silence all around me Peigns, s.
A chill creeps through my heart,
No trace OF those loved remains,
And tears unbidden start.
What though the sunbeams fall as fair,
What though the budding flowers
Still shed their fragrance on the air,
Within life's golden hoursP
The loving ones that clustered here,
These walls may not restore;
Voices thar filled my youthful ear,
viii greet my soul 10 more;
And yet quit the dear old place
With slow aud lingering tread,
As when we kiss clay-cold face
And leave it with the dead.

A White Mule.

A friend told US lately of an
amusing scene he witnessed at the
old river ford, near Natchitoches,in
this State. A negro had a wagon
and a team Of six mules which he
wished to drive across. The two
lead mules took kindly to the wat
er, but one of the hind ones, white
mule, obstinately refused to enter
the stream. Jumping from his seat
in furious passion, the teamster
began beating the perverse one
with might and main, exclaiming,
between the blows, "you thinks
you's white, does you? But I'll
show you, dam quick, colored mules
is as good as you is. Gee upp-

LITTER AIRY
How it Feels to be DrOwned--De-
scribed by a Man Who has Tried 1T.


A few days ago workman en-
ployed at one of the tanneries on
this side of the river, but living on
east side, named Grace, attempted
to cross to his work upon the ice.
When part way over, the ice broke
beneath Grace, and he fell through.
He sank immediatly to the bottom,
hut was taken up by one OF those
hooks employed for the purpose,
and by strong efforts the spark of
life, which had apparently departed,
was brought back, and Grace still
lives, although having been as near
deaths door as a man could very
we'll go and return to this subluna-
ry sphere.
Yesterday a reporter of the Wis
consin met Grace, and had a con-
versation with him relative to his
narrow escape. . During the con-
versation the man gave sketch OF
the sensations which he experience
ed while under the water, which we
will endeavor TO give as the words
fell from his lips. SAID Grace: |
thought that morning, as it had
been stiffening over night, that the
ice would be stiff enough to bear
me, as / was a little late that morn
ing, and as it was long way round
by the bridge, l would save time
by going across the ice instead OF
around by the bridge. went on,
thinking about what ] should say
the foreman to save being docked
a quarter of a day, and wasn't thin.
king but what all was safe enough,
when trod on a weak spot. /
then went right through. 1t was
so sudden like, and the water was
so cold and suppose | was so frigh-
tened, that all my senses went away
in a flash. l hit my head on he
edge of the ice, and that made me
stupid, and that's what made it
look so like dream, perhaps. 1t
seemed like | kept sinking, sinking
all the time-not going down like
a man would in the water, but go.
ing down fast--so fast that it took
all my breath away. Although
know l kept my eyes shut all the
time, it seemed like | could see al
about NE, and like was in the
midst, first of geat field of black
ness, which came up all around me
and was very thick.
AS / went down, this kept grow
ing lighter and brighter, and from
being sort of gloomy at first, soon
began to grow pleasanter, and my
head, which seemed at first all stuff
ed to be clearer and clearer. have
heard great deal about paradise
and all sudden like it seemed had
come to that place. I didn't feel
like l was any body else, but all
my senses came to me, and the first
knew | was wondering where ]
was, and how l came there ! felt
as if l was just so full of happiness
as | could be. Every thing | had
done in my life seemed like it was
written on little page, and | had
it right before me, and could tell
1T all, even down to the little things.
Before me l could see great green
and purple and red clouds floating
along, and would hear angels and
fairies singing, and | knew they
were happy, and when tried to
help them, | felt as happy as they
were.
! tried to think it was dream;
but couldn't and didn't feel as
if it was at all like death, and while
every thing seemed so clear to me,
even to what the foreman would
say when he found did not come.
The Vinton record. [volume] (M'arthur, Vinton County, Ohio) 1866-1891, 1867-04-25

| wondered if ever / should go
hack agaln, and if l did, what q
time | would have telling the boys
where / had been and what 1 had
seen. Evry good action l had
done came up and looked me in the
face, and although some of the bad
actions, all of which l could see
standing at my back, tried to come
up, they could not. l can not tell
you how happy | felt, and how long
! felt so. 1t was drowning, l knew
and if man only knew about it and
there wasn't any danger OF being
brought back again, it would be
the happiest way to die that ever
was invented. But the coming
back, oh! that was awful
While | was feeling so good as |
tried to tell yon about, and it didn't
seem as if it was a little while, but
like it was years and years, while
| was thinking, it seemed like one
of the bad actions crowded away
one of the good ones, and came up
and looked me in the face, and in
stantly all Of the good actions, and
all the angels and the fairies, be-
came devils of the worst kind, and
all the colored clouds became black
and the devils closed round me,
and they yelled in my ears, and
pushed me this way and that, and
then all the clouds became preci-
piceS and caves and holes, and it
seemed as if the evil ones were try
ing to push me into all of these at
once, yelling and bowling all the
time, and when | resisted, tearing
whole hands full of flesh OFF my
bones and hair out of my head
And they seemed to 60 into my
mouth, and my nose, and my ears,
and tear away inside of me until |
was so full of misery that / prayed
that they might kill me at once
and when / tried to tell them so it
was like as if my head would burst
asunder. AS | can't tell you how
happy | was before, so can't near
tell you how l suffered now. Ihad
heard great deal about hell, and
thought l was there for certain.
Sometimes the devils inside of me
would be fine and burn me, and
then they would be ocean, and |
would strangle and be drowning.
And when | seemed to be suffering
most, all of sudden | came sort
out of it, and the boys were stand
ing about me and trying to bring
me to life, and then l knew that
had been nearly drowned, but they
had saved me. But l tell you as
told them. ifI should ever come SC
near drowning again, don't try to
save me, for | had ten thousand
times rather die feeling like did
when l seemed in paradise, than to
be brought to and suffer all the tor.
ments | did afterward.
