CnWF JUsrICK CHssE-W Whatever may be the result of the Impeachment trial now pro- gressing at Washington, (ssys the San Fran cisco CaiJ the presiding Justice of the Court is evidently determined that, SO far a, he can control il, the trial shall le conducted with dignity, and in conformity with law and jus ticc. He feels that his position is q most grave and responsible one-knuws that he has reputation 10 sustain and does moi wish to be handed down in his history as second Jefiries His firm promptness in ruling out certain evidence sought to be introduced by the prosecution, shows that he is not dis posed to allow the great Court over which he prcsidcs to bc made the instrument of the malignant and the tool of the vicious. It has been known all along, that Chief Justice Chase is an nemyof the Impeachment move mcnt. As legal man, he knows that there is no lawful foundation for it, and as q citizen and a man, filling the next to the highest uo- sition in the United States. he knows that it has been pushed forward from the most un- worthy motives, and that, if successful. it can only result in disgrace tO the entire Ma tiOn. These considerations, and his inherent regard for justice, impel him to exert all bis power to secure far and impartial trial for the accused, ana if the President has that the country will not be disgraced by the sue cessful termination of the most outrageous persecution of modern times.
