1t is Il little singular that this North
Carolina proclamation is one of the most
serious charges brought against President
JOHNSON 10y the majority OF the Impeach-
meut Committee. Who claim that If Presl-
dent LINCOLN had lived he would have
turned over tho whole matter to Congress.
And what is not SO singular, but equally
trllc, IS that the individual upon whom the
President conferred the appointment OF
Provisional Governor Is one Of the leading
Southern * loyaIists who is bounding on
the party cnr5 against his patron.
General GRANT is sustained i'll his state
ment in regard to the North Carolina pro-
clamation by the testimony OF Secretary
STANTON, before the same Committee, who
saws that in discussion of this question

the assassination, the power Of the Execu-
tive branch Of the Government to fe-or-

the Southern States since they were placed
under military rule q single instance of dis
