The NoMINATIoN OF GENERAL ScHOr

day morning are singularly quiet in reference
to the Presidents new demonstration on
the War Department, The Iateiegeaccr sim
ply announces the nomination as made in
place of Edwin NJ StantOn-t0 be remOred
The Republican says:
The nomination of General Schoield for
Secretary of War has taken men OF all parties
here about slightly aback The question
was freely asked last evening, what does 1t
mean? That the President has seen tit to
withdraw the name Of Hon. Thomas Ew-
ing and send in the name Of Major General
John d. Schoiield for tie Department of
War, has astonished manyof Mr.. johnson S
friends and all Of his enemies.
Even General Thomas, who was at the
Cabinet meeting yesterday, knew nothing
of this purpose and action OF the President.
When told oft he expressed strong doubts
of its truth, but contented himself when the
fact was made apparent to his comprehen-
sion with saying that he was still Secretary
Of War; ud interim.
The nomination is regarded as a good
one, bat it may be doubted if the Senate
viii act upon it till after the impeachment
trial is closed
The nomination Of General Sehofeld
places the affair in a singular position,
which only the laundering Inconsistencies of
Mr. johnson could have effected. The
nomination OF General Scho6eld completely
oyersaughs and ignores the ad interim ap-
pointment Of General Thomas, and is an
admission by the President that all his pre-
viOus action in regard to the Department
has gone for naught.

he consequently changes the form Of the
government
That is the very head and front Of this
case. Forif the violation Of one law may
be justified, if ''tho mere formal, technical
infraction Of the Tenure-of Office Act is
Of no consequence, provided the Executive
pleads Constitutional doubt, then his plea
of Constitutional doubt must equally JUS
tify him in formal and technical infraction
of every other act and of every law upon
the Statute Book. Such an argument ex-
cuses him from obeying any law until he
has chosen to bring the question of its va
lidity before the Supreme Court, and until
the Supreme Court has chosen to decide.
1t is no answer to say that there are some
laws that can be tested in no other way.
For it is better that some laws should not
be tested than that the President should be
permitted to decide what laws he may vio-
late under plea Of testing them. Nor is it
sufficient to offer to show that there was no
bad motive. A Dictator may have no bad
motive; but the President, even with the
best intentions, can not be suffered to be-
corae Dictator If the Tenure. of Office
Act was a law, it was binding upon the
President with all other laws. IfMr Stan
ton stood within the terms Of the law and
the President removed him without con
sulting the Senate, the President is guilty
Of deliberately violating the law IF this
shall be established by the Managers-and
it seems to US as plain as any proposition
can be-and the President be acquitted by
the Senate, its decision will confirm him as
Dictator.
The elaborate effort of the defense to
show purity Of motive seems to us useless
The Senate did wisely in admitting rea-
sonable number ef declarations Of the Presi-
dent that he had nothing but the noblest
purposes in view, for really there is moth
ing else for him to say, except that Mr.
Stanton is not within the law. We are
glad to know all that We can of the Presi-
dents communications to men like General
Sherman, and as little as possible of his or.
ations to correspondents with notebook in
hand. We know that the Cabinet thought
the law unconstitutional His counsel with
the utmost ability will present his case. 1t
is clear that the Senate is as candid and up
right tribunal as any impeached officer
could desire. It's conduct from the begin
ming shows that it means to do justice.
But we shall await with curious interest the
argument that shall attempt to prove to the
Senate of the United States that President
Andrew johnson, in the present condition
of the country and with his notorious sym
pathies, associations, and hopes, may at
bis pleasure formally and technically violate
the laws. Hdrper's Weekly.

IMPEACHMENT is steadily progressing.
Since the evidence in the case has closed,
speeches have been made or published, on
the part of the managers by, Boutwell,, Lo-
gan, Stevens and Williams, on the part of
the counsel for the President, and by Nelson,
Groesbeck, Evarts and Stanbery to-day;
Mr.. Bingham will close the case. The
President friends confidently assert that
two Republican Senators win vote for his
acquittal. They express great confidence;
and do not disguise the fact that money will
be freely used, if it can be made available in
convincing weak or needy Senators of the
Presidents innocence. 1t is reported that
parties in New York are busily engaged in
raising funds for this purpose. No fears
however are entertained that they win be
able 20 win over the seven Republican
Senators necessary to acquit. There scarcely
seems to be a possibility Of the President s

The ABYssTNIAE WAR-Later adyices

troops had laid down their arms to Napier.

wounded or captured Theodorus, two sons
were taken prisoners. The interior of the
fortress of Magdala presented an extraor
binary and splendid sight. the place glowing
almost with barbarie splendor. The British
troops plundered it atonee. The men found
four royal crowns made of solid gold, twenty
thousand dollars in silver plates, several lots
of very rich jewels, and other articles of
great value.
After the works were completely taken
King Theodorus was found dead by the En-
gllsh soldiers on entering the centre of his
stronghold. He was shot through the head
Some persons say he was killed during one
of the battles; others incline TO the opinion
that he committed suicide when he found

the ratification Of the Constitution by a de-
