QUESTION.
Go with me now, gentlemen, into
the dominions of the race ofHam. and
into what has been the vexatious
questions of other days. We will find
the Gordian knot to have been sew
cred, and therefore this question en-
tiers not into this contest, only so far
as appeals to passion, to race and
prejudice, has made it SO. 1t has
been and is a question OF great sur
prise to me, that men who looked upon
US as the brightest lights in the Demo
cratic school, should labor and argue
so earnestly in making this a ques-
ton In issue. This cannot be done.
The questions arising by reason Of
him as a negro, have been before the
people, and to the grave are they now
consigned, never to be resurreeted
only so far as States in their " pc
culiar governments may call it forth.
The right of suffrage by the negro
is one that in the palmy days of
Southern slavery was given to and ex-
ercised there by him. It stands OF
record so. He has always been rep
resented, not only indirectly in Con
gressional representation, but, at diff
ferent times, by a ballot dropped from
his own hands. When history shall
give the correctness of the tale OF our
public doctrines, laws and meas
ures, the unbiased and unprejudiced
reader will remember and mark that
this was the case, and will naturally
turn to this moment of history. and
then, gentlemen, will he find that the
Democratic National Platform pro-
claims, Equal rights and protection

zens at home and abroad" He

II is admitted on all hands that Il pri.
vate citizen may proceed in peaceful
manner to resistany law which violates
| his personal rights under the Constitu-
tion, and may bring such law before the
courts for judicial condemnation. And
even if he should be mistaken as to his
right and as to the invalidity ofthe law,
his error will not be imputed to him q,
q crime.
And 50, where a question arises as Ia
the constitutional right of the President
to change his constitutional advisers
the men who constitute his political
household, and for whose acts he is re.
sponsible TO the people and to the law
as against a statute which invades or
denies to him such right, can it be
doubted that he may challenge the
statute and carry 1t into the courts of
law for judgment And where the
statute is plainly in contempt of the
past practice of the Government, and
of the very highest authorities which
can be cited upon question of consti.
tutional law, and no one but the Pre-
sident can bring 1t to the test ofjudicial
examination and judgment, is not his
duty to challenge il rs incontestible ~
his right?
CONCLUSION.
| have now concluded my exainina.
ton Of the several articles Of impeach-
ment and of the act of Congress upon
which most of them are founded. The
general question Of presidential power
under the Constitution to remove Off
GERS of the United States from Office at
discretion, has been but slightly noticed,
and no attention has been bestowed up
on those topics of defamation and in
vective which has been intruded into
the trial. The constitutional question
was discussed by me at length when
the tenure-of-oflice act was passed, and
| do not find it necessary to repeat the
argument then made by me in order to
explain or vindicate my judgment up
on these articles of impeachment. Az
to the eXtraneous and irrelevant mat
ters introduced into the trial, and par
ticularly into the argument, put them
wholly aside. This case is to be tried
upon the laws which apply to it, and
upon the facts which are duly proved.
The issue joined is not political but lu-
dicial, and it is upon specific articles of
accusation. They are to be decided
honestly and firmly, and nothing be
side them is to pass into judgment.
In my opinion the acquittal of the
President upon all the charges prefer
redagainst him is authorized by lawand
demanded by justice. He has commit
ted no high crime or misdcmeanor. He
has tramplcd upon no mans right; he
has violated no public duty. He has
kept his oath of Office unbrokpn, and
has sought in a lawful manner to win.
dicatc and preserve the high constitu.
tioDal powers cOntided 10 him by the
people. He cannot and ought moi To
be punished for his opinions upon pub
lie measures and public policy; and, in
contemplation of law, his conduct in all
the matters brought before US for review
has been irreproachablC. What he has
done indicates not criminal intent but
patriotic purpose; and besides, that
true courage, sustained and invincih!c.
which grappies with difficulty and dc.
iies danger.
