DIGNITY. OF THE IMPEACHMENT CASE
On this subject, the Springfield (Mass)
Republican discourscs:
1t is not altogether clear yet whether
the Congress will impeach the President,
or the President impeach the Congress; or
both, indeed According to present ap-
pearances- it will be just about nip-and-
tuck between them. The brilliant array
of counsel retained by the President are
not likely to come before the Senate in
any very apologetic, deprecatory, or bor-
row leave. to.be attitude. All of them
doubtless believe the President to be guilt
less of any high crimes or misdemeanors
in the constitutional sense Of those terms.
All of them are thoroughly yerscd in con-
stitutional law and in political history
There is no doubt that counsel on both
sides will find enough to say. 1t must be
borne in mind that the strict rules of legal
trial do not apply in impeachment trials.
New testimony can be brought in at any
time. Special pleading Is allowable. The
offense charged is malfeasance in office, not
technical crime. Hence wide verge
must be allowed to court, counsel, and
witnesses. 1t is sort of loose and popular
court, consisting of fifty or sixty Judges.
The prosecutors are the representatives OF
the majesty of the people. Counsel ac
cordingly cannot be tied down to petty
technicalities, but must have free range
over the whole field. just think Of it
Somebody will get i,npeached badly
There is little doubt about that.

The Air Line Railroad.

The Atlanta Inteltlgencer, after express
ing it's qualification that public attention
is being again called to this important line
intended to run from that city to Char
lotte, North Carolina, publishes the follow
ing statement made by b. Y. Sage, ESQ.,,
Chief Engineer of the road, which gives
many points of interest. We append the
flowing extracts:
think the work on the road swill be
commenced early the coming spring, pro-
vided the negotiations now i'll progress
shall be carsied out successfully.
In the first place, this road will offer
facilities to portion of the citizens of this
State who are now destitute of the same,
and must ever remain so until such COM
munication is opened. This road will pass
through Its entire length one of the finest
grain as we'll as mineral regions in the
United States. This, Of itself, should be
sufficient to direct the investment of capi-
tai to it, and open, at the same time, new
and valuable sources of wealth to the poo
pie, enhance largely the taxable property
of our impoverished State.
In national point of view, it stands
pre-eminent 1t is the only line needed to
complete the Great Northern and South.
crn Grand Trunk Line, as we'll as the
Eastern end of the Great Southern Pacific
Railroad, which is the shortest line that
can be built between New York and the
Pacific coast.
Our route from Mobile to New York, is
one hundred and thirty miles shorter than
any road that can be built, being nearly
an air line between these points.
AS postal road, it has many superior
advantages over any other route. We are
one hundred and thirty miles shorter, and
have maximum grade of sixty feet per
mile OIL the present shortest route, which
will give us great advantage III point OF
time and speed.
AS military road, having the shortest
line and lightest grades, and running near
ly parallel to the Atlantic and Gulf coasts,
and on the east side of the mountains, and
at the same time being so FAR inland as to
be safe from the raids of an enemy, and
crossing and connecting, as it does, with
all the rivers and railroads running from
the interior TO the coast, it has no equal ;
none can be built Troops and munitions
can be thrown or transported to any point
on the coast in the shortest possible time.
AS regards the investments i'll the stock
of this road, there can be but one answer
to any one who knows anything of the
amount of business that has heretofore
been done by the great routes from the
South to North. a glance at the map of
the country will be- sufficient to satisfy the
most timid as to the fact, and the feasbil
ity of the same.
The unsettled state of the country has
retarded the work, and the great scarcity
of money may for a time still delay the
same, but ultimately the wants of the
country will demand and force its compile.
