WASHINGTON, April 90 1868.
..e closing Of the testimony for both sides is
subject OF universal congratuation, and the pros
poets OF now speedy termination Of the impeach-
mcnt trial is received by both radicals and demo-
Gratis with equal anticipations Of triumph. During
to-days proceedings Manager Butler took occasion
70 display his coven foot in species Of browbeating
which he attempted to practice upon the Chief
Justice the latter having ordered Butler to submit
question in writing, which request was received by
rude reply. Both the Managers, Boutwell, and Bing-
ham, and the counsel, Evarts and Stanbery, are
busily at work upon their arguments. Mr.. Boutwell,
has very nearly completed his speech 1t will require
at least the whole Of Wednesday for Mr.. Boutwell, TO
dispose Of his effort for the benefit Of the High
Court.
Before the final argument is commenced another
attempt will be made allow those OF the Managers
and counsel who are debarred from speaking by the
persstency Of the Senate in adherng to the twenty
nrst rule to file the arguments which they have pre-
pared In advance, to form sort Of appendix to the
o0icial report after trial. General Logan has an
elaborate argument finished, covering the whole
ground Of the controversy and making ffty-fve
printed pages. Thad Stevens has also lucubration
which he is anxious to get in in some shape.

The Impeachment Trial-Confession Of a Radi-
c cal Sheet.
from the Springfield Republican (radicaD Apri 2O1

Many OF the reports and dispatches from Washing
ton throw doubt upon the result OF the Senates vote
on the conviction OF the President But our
private advices sustain the Judgment we have
all along expressed that conviction Is inevitable,
and win follow not so much rom q JeelinJ
or the Presidents technical quit or Innocence
ON this or that charge as from the feeling that Ii is
a necessity or the political condition Of the country
and earned by its victim by his interference with the
with the public peace. We are assured that no more
than three republican senators are likely under any
circumstances, to vote for the President These are
Grimes, OF Iowa; Van Winkle, OF West Virginia, and
Fowler, OF Tennessee. The withdrawal Of these
from the republican vote against the President still
leaves it several In Of the number necessary
conviction. The present week viii undoubtedly
witness the conclusion OF the whole matter-the de-
posal Of one President and the institution Of another
in his place.
The New York herald., 1868-04-21

anomaly In our political system OF person pun
sed for an act which the highest judicial authority
decides NOT only not to be crime but 10 be IN strict
conformity with our constitution. Congress enacts
that it shall be q miedcmeanor to remove certain
persons from once; the President disregards the
enactment Congress impeaches and removes him ;
the Supreme Court subsequently decides that the
deed declared to be misdemeanor by Congress Is
not in point OF fact q misdemeanor, and that Con-
gress had no right TO declare 1t sO Is IL to be sup
posed that under these circumstances, viewing the
great exigency OF the case the Supreme Court would
refuse to take cognizance OF an application made by
the depOsed Executive for review of the Judgment
Of tue Impeachment courtf Common sense and jus-
tice would seem TO demand imperatively that the
court should hear such an application and decide It
on It's merits. Because the Senate has the sole
power to try impeachment cases Is no reason
why their Judgment should not be reviewed
when the question involved Is whether law s con-
stitutonal or the reverse and whether the President
ought to have enforced 1t or not To believe other
wise would clearly to believe that Congress absorbs
both the legislative and judicial powers OF the
countrya belief inconsistent with the spirit and let
ter OF the constitution.
