raigns Grant because he did not remain in
the War Department in defiance of that law
Andrew johnson stands forth in this cor
respondence as one who has the wish to dis
obey the law, but hardly the courage to put
his wish into action while at the same time
he is revealed as the cowardly criminal who
is enraged because he has not been able to
accomplish by another hand the crime ~ hich
he did not quite dare boldly to commit
with his own: and he has no shame in
publishing his own criminal purpose, and
cowardly scheme for its accom- plishment, to
the American people. 1t begins to be ap-
parent that the fear Of impeachment has
alone held Mr.. johnson back from becoming
the chief of law breakers. lie has only MOI
been the greatest criminal in the land, be
cause he has not had the courage for Tho
work himself. The country owes nothing t.
his head or his heart, but to his want o
pluck it really owes much.

{ Question for EeUiaf,S.

The New York Evening Post in Il recent
article has started Il new question of impor-
lance to the Fenians. in connection with the
bills now before Congress to protect Ameri-
can citizens whether native or naturalized.
The Post is decidedly III favor of giving nat
uralized citizens the same protection given
to the native-born, and fully recognizes the
right OF the citizens Of any country to change
their allegiance 50 that they shall no
duties TO their former government, while
that government is relieved from any obi
cation to protect them, or to give them any
of the rights Of citizenship.
But-the Posi- inquiries of the Irish
Republic? Is that a nationality? DO ou1

try, who have taken upon themselves the oh
legations Of that republic, and have contrib
uted their means to its support, and have
elected its officers, head-centres, congresses
presidents, &c and have been enrolled il
its armies, and fought its battles, still re
| main American citizens, or have they change
! their allegiance to the Irish Republic? The,
cannot be citizens Of both governments q
| the same time-to which do they owe allegi
ence?
| This inquiry is not only important to tn
! Fenians, but it is important in determinin:
the course Of our government in respect t
the Fenians who have got INTO British dun
geons. Our government is under obliga
ton to protect citizens of the Irish Republic
anywhere, any more than it is under oblig,,
/ tions to protect the citizens of any othe
| government This naturalization law whicl
Gen. Banks is pushing, may prove tw,
edged sword, for, while it aiHrms in its broad
est sense the right Of any person to chang
his citizenship with its obligations and right
it releases the government from all obliga
ton to protect persons once American citi
zens who have transferred their allegiance t
ony other Republic than the mite
States. The Irish Republic has issued bond
and exercised the functions Of government
in raising armies and levying war, and hold
itself out the beginning Of new govern
ment Of ireland and we trust those VIII

as attorney general of the United States
not as Mr. Johnson's private and contiden-
tial legal adviser has declined to argue in
