Federal Union; the maintainance, the
defense and enforcement, inviolate Of the
Constitution anu laws; the recUIIsur uU
ton of the rebellious states, and the res
toration thereof to permanent relations

of those VINO foughtia the nation sservice,
on land and sea and the eternal perpet-
uation of liberty, good order, and the
enlightened interests Of the people.
ResoIUed, That, while we deplore the
necessity which has compelled the House
of Representative to impeach Andrew
Johnson, President of the United States,
the thanks OF the nation are due to the
House OF Representatives for the prompt
and energetic action by which they seek
to vindicate the constitution and laws OF
the country, In bring him before the con-
stltutlonal high court of impeachment
Resotced, That we have full confidence
in the two houses of Congress that in
this crisis of public affairs, brought upon
the country by the ambitious and wicked
acts Of bold. bad man, they will main
tain and preserve inviolate the constitu-
ton and laws, and vindicate their author
lty; and that the loyal people of this
nation, who have once saved the country
from the fierce and bloody assaults of the
late rebellion, will sustain and support,
and, if need be with the sword defend,
such action of the national legislature.
Resolued That it is for the interest OF
the republic that the disturbance of the
public peace, created by the wanton acts
of Andrew johnson, should be brought
to speedy end, by bringing him to trial
| on the impeachment as soon as the ends
of justice will permit.
ResoZyed, That in addition to the great
qualities as soldier displayed by Gen
eral Grant and to the prominent services
rendered by him in suppressing the re,
bellion, he has shown capacity for civil
affairs and a statesmanlike comprehen
siveness and breadth of intellect which
point TO him as the man above all other;
fit and worthy in the present crisis to be
chosen President of the United States
to restore peace, order and harmony
throughout the country, to insure the
due execution of the laws, and to intro

penditures in all branches of the public
