Impeachment Court Continued-The Court was
densely crowded. Mr.. Bingham concluded in eff
feet, as follows &c He might be pardoned for
quoting the words Of Engand's great historian
that had the case against James failed, the tree
of liberty would have crumbied, and shall it be
said in history hereafter that through the defec-
ton of the American Senate, the fair fabric of
American liberty crumbled into dust, and the
of our Republic faded away before the ma
ions a.? 1t is the spirit Of justice, of liberty, of
equality that makes your Constitution respected
everywhere. 1t gives tho people the right to
make their own laws, and it is this right
which is challenged by your recreant President
He claims the power to make their laws, and to
be their dictator. If he is allowed to do So it will
be by the voice of the Senate not by the free will
of the American people, or through any neglect Of
their representatives.. Will the Senate set him
above the Constitution which he has violated, and
he swore to obey? Perhaps he was saying too
much but he asked the Senators to remember
that he speaking to day in behalf of u violated
Constitution and laws of the rights Of free PEG
pie that he was speaking in the name of half
million of braves who slept in death to-day, who
had died that the nation might live. It only re-
mained for him to thank the Senate for their at
tention, and to demand in the name Of the House
Of Representatives, and of free people, the con-
viction Of this accused President, who stands
guilty before God and man, of the high crimes
and msdemeanors of which he stands impeached.''
