Another Article.

Mr. Butler, of Massachusetts, proposed to
add another to the articles of impeachment
charging the Executive with the design to set
aside the rigbtful authority of Congress and to
bring it into contempt, together with the laws
it has duly enacted, and of this he makes sew
eral specifications, of which we merely give
the substance:
First Ia this District on August 18th, 1896,
he spoke of Congress hanging on the verge Of
the Government and pretending ito be for
the Union when its every step and act tended
to perpetuate diSunion and make a disruption
of the States inevitable"
Second AT Cleveland Ohio, September Sd,
1866, he spoke of Congress as trying to break
up the Government aud having dome every
thing to prevent it, the Uuiou,l etc.
Third At ST. Louis on Sth September,
1866, charged that the New Orleans riots were
planned in Congress, and, among other things,
that "another rebellion was. commenced, hav-
ing its origin with the Radical Congress. -
This specification makes extensive quotations
from the St. Louis speech.
If it were not for the nausea that might be
created, it would be proper Offset to collect
specimens Of disgusting ribaldry and course
invective INDUCED by congressman in regard
to the President But "the game is not worth
the candle

by the majority in violating tie sacred rights
of free debate aud usconstrained dehberation
upon the greatest questions ever brought before
an American Congress, but the protest was not

In the civil courts neither Judge nor juryman
can act in a casein which he is personally inter-
ested. In the course OF debate in the House
Mr. Paine SAID it would be a singular spectacle
20 allow the President Of the Senate % preside
at the trial Of an officer 20 whose functions he
would succeed And we may ask whether Il,
would no, he quite as singular a spectacle to
find q Senator SO situated rotgg 10 r1cais a
chair into which, in the event Of success. he
would be scated2 Yet Senator Wade is count
cd as one of the tLirty->ix necessary to carry
