pension OF President johnson But, finally,
after specifying the exclusive powers Of Cor
gress, the con tiiution further says that Con-
gress shlll have power !"to mike all laws
which shall be necessary and proper for car
rying into execution the foregoing powers, and
all other powers vested by this constitution in
the government Of the United St.tes, or in any
department or ofacer thereof" Under this CLAUSE
Congress may as ume the power to suspend
the President while on trial, as necessary to
carry into effect certain other powers with
which the two houses are invested and the
powers Of the Executive Department Under
astrained construction Of the constitution two
third majority in each house OF Congress may
do anything against the Executive but IRON
the very silence OF the supreme law on this
question Of suspension from Office OF parry
impesched while on trial for high crimes and
msdemeanors we may safely assume that no
such thing was ever contemplated, and espe-
the President, on impeachment, may be sus-
pended, he may be virtually removed from
Office by bare majority of the House in bring
ing him to trial before the Senate; for once
there, as before court, the trial, by bare
majority OF that body, may be indefinitely
prolonged.
Mr. Stevens, at any ratio, in this proposed
bill on impeachment is only aiming to reach tle
actual removal OF President Johnson by less
than The required two-tlird vote of the Senate.
He has probably mad tho discovery thas two
third vote in the Senate for this removal by
impeachment does not exist, and, il SO, he
would do we'll TO abandon this half way
measure of suspension; for If this law te
passed the President, in contosting its consttu-
tionallty, may make case Tor the Supreme
Court which will hold bin in Off ce to the end of
his term. The proposed impeachment to
amount to anything, must be conducted accord
ing to the explicit terms of the constitution
The President must first be tried on charges
from the House, and then, if declared guilty
by vote Of two-tlirds Of the Senators present,
he is removed, and will have to 60. If this
cannot be done, the prosecu ion ought to be
dropped, for no halfway trick OF suspension
will reach the case as contemplated by Mr..
Stevens
His second bill, deemed necessary for the
safety o. the country, is simply the scheme OF
Mr. Senator Sumner, of establishing universal
negro suffrage by act of Congress-the expert
mcnts made in this direction in the Northern
States, in Ohio mos! emphatically, having
failed. Mr.. Stevens will hardly mend the mat
ter by this bill. The republican party in Con-
gress have been admonished that they have
followed him little too far ALREADY. Their
true course is to fall back upon the pending
constitutional amendment, which, if we are not
mistaken, has been ratified by sufficient num-
Der Of the States to make 1t part of the supreme
law, and which, in leaving representation and
suffrage to balance each other as each State
may choose in regard to the blacks, and in
binding the government, the States and the
people to redeem the national debt, settles the
two most important questions Of the day.

state COnstabulary-How tho Law
Works In Massachusetts,.

The State Constabulary law does not seem
to work well in Massachusetts. The latest case
Of opposition to its officers occurred at West
field on last Saturday evening, and resulted in
the death OF one of the citiz ms of that place.
Four Springfield constables, 1t appears, made
descent upon a West6eld faro bank, and
captured eight gamblers and oil the1 imple-
ments OF trade, including cards, dealing cases,
tally boxes. the board Of green cloth and
several stacks of tempting red and white chips.
The residents Of the usually quiet town took
this unwarrantable interference with their
rights with very bad grace, and, after drawing
together large concourse Of people. by the
ringing Of the fire bells, they besicged the ofa-
GERS in their turn in the building they had pre-
viously captured, drove them out Of possession
by means Of brickbats and boulders, yelled at
them like tigers. rescued their prisoners and
stole their horses, compelling them to beat q
hasty retreat on foot. The assailed constables
fired into the crowd, killing one man, after
which they were pursued, arrested on charge
of murder and lodged in Jail.
These acts OF violence and bloodshed are not
the result OF disposition on the part Of the
Massachusetts, people to shield malefactors
from the penalties Of the law. They spring out
of the popular opposition to class Of legisla-
ton, arbitrary aud oppressive in its character,
that has prevailed wherever the radical Puritan
ical element has held sway. In this State and
in the West II has manifested itself In acts to
suppress ths sale Of liquors and beer, and to
prevent the artisan and the laborer from enjoy
ing any recreation on their one day OF rest out
Of the seven days OF the week. In Massa-
chusetts II takes the shape Of State con-
stabulary, in addition, to enforce these
sumptuary laws through officers strange to
the community. II the Wesileld police
had made descent upon q wcstHeld
gambling den the pious people Of that usually
virtuous town would no doubt have submitted
with becoming patience and resignation. II
was the oficious interference OF constables
from Springfield that excited their Ire, drew
forth their yells, and caused the death Of one Of
their number.

Stay Mt Home.

The Montgomery Advertiser, re-
tierring to the return of number of
Alabamians who had emigrated to
Brazil. says:
'The advice of the gentlemen with
whom we conversed, is to dissipate
the idea that Alabama is not still q
great country-to cease dreaming g
over the unhappy past-say nothing
that will assist to keep mp political
troubles-stay at home, but work,
work, work, and Alabama Will yet be
what she ought to be, and can be-a
great and glorious country"
There can be no better advice than
this to all the people of the South. 1t
would have saved large numbers of
its citizens very severe and unneces-
sary additions to the troubles they
already suffered from the war. If
'the Southern press, as the Phpni.c
did from the beginning of this emf
grafton mania, had universally dis
countenanced all of these emigration
schemes, it would have been better
for our people.
The Baltimore .Sun, in noticing the
return of emigrants, says that it is true
wisdom not to abandon hope in the
republic, and if the worst that is ap-
pretended here comes to pass, it can
scarcely be more miserable than the
condition to which many of the
Southern emigrants to foreign re-
gions have been reduced. But the
industrial reconstruction to which the
Adoertiser urges the Alabamians is
the surest road to political recon
struction, and with the exercise of
patience, perseverance and forbear-
ance, we shall yet have prosperous
and happy country.

The letter of Gen. Pope to Gen.
Grant occasions some comment, and
the improbable statement is made
that the latter officer will order the
arrest of B. 81. Hill and other discon-
tented persons. We prefer to give
Gen. Grant credit for better sense.
Mr.. Hill was strong Union man
during the war, but does not hesitate
to controvert the policy of the Con-
gressional Acts of restriction. He
has perfect right to do so. of course,
using such arguments as his convic-
tions may suggest, though it may all
be of no utility whatever.

The Two Races.


The Baltimore Sun, last week, had
an admirable article on the relations
of whites aud blacks in the Southern
States. It took the ground, as gene
ral rule, that the inferior race must
disappear before the superior. Speak
ing of the freedmen, the Sun said
very truly, that their worst enemies
=are the men who would SOW in their
breasts the seeds of animosity to-
wards any material portion of the
white race, and who would stimulate
them to acts of violence, by invest
ing, for party purposes, every acci-
dental collision between whites and
blacks with significance and impor-
tance which only serve to increase the
evil, and who even connive at the
introduction among them of q prac-
+ dee, of which only the disorderly and
rnffianly element of the white class is
guilty, that of carrying concealed
weapons, thus endangering the peace
and safety of the community. and
assuming the position of men in an
enemy's country, who must go armed
FOR the protection of their lives. On
this point, the Sun is very emphatic,
and remarks that, in view of the pre-
sent relations Of the two races at the
South, it can only be in the event Of
the freedmen becoming perverted
from their true instincts and proper
sphere, into q jealous and hostile po-
sition towards the whites. that it will
be found impossible for the two races
TO occupy the same territory.
The Sun concludes its article as
follows:
lit is to be hoped that the colored
men will not permit themselves to act
upon the belief, which incendiary
white men are seeking to instil into
them, that the laws of the land are
insufficientfo for their protection, and
that, in order to be secure, they must
adopt practice of the most vicious
and degraded class of whites Every
one recollects the execration and
loathing by which that class, who for
merly disturbed the peace of this
community, were looked upon by all
good citizens, both white and colored,
and why should colored men permit
themselves to be degraded to the
level of such habits, which will inevi-
tably render them objects of the same
execration and loathing? Their true
friends feel profoundly solicitous to
elevate them above such a fate, and
to encourage them, everywhere, by
good order and industry, to show
that two races, which have every rea-
son for mutual good will and co-ope-
ration, can continue to live together
on the same soil in amity and peace. I"
We commend these views to our
readers, especially to our colored citi-
zens. Ii this State, we hope we have
little occasion to urge the admoni-
tions of the SIN; nevertheless, they
are worthy of the calm consideration
of all. History is being written with
Apid penElet it not trace anything
dishonorable to either race in the
Southern territories.
