johnson formed deliberate design and determined TO
prevent The said Edwin NJ Stanton from forthwith re-
suming the duties of his Office, theeby committing q
high misdemeauor and offence; and that when de-
feated in accomplishing tho design BY the integrity and
fidelity Of The Secretary dd interim he sought 10 arrive
a. the end BY giving letter Of authority to Loren
Thomas Adutant General OF the army to act as SEQ
rotary OF War al intertm and severely censurod the
former Secretary of War ad ie,im for not yielding 10
his efforts to make him beray his trusts This charge,
said Mr. Stevens nowhere contained In the articles
reported Dy the committee, and unless II DO inherited

to practise at the Court OF Quarter sessions.
II that article be inserted the Presidents own letters
show both the removal and the attempt to deeat the
reinstatement; and although the Senate should decide
the other charges In his favor how could he or his coun
sci hope to escape from this one and is worth all the
Others pat t0geherl, unless u be the demonstrations
aty Of the Tenure OF Omce bill3 Let look and
what chance he has to escape there Tho Senate has
four times voted the c0nsttuonalty of that very
bill. The first vote stood-yeas 90, nays lam sorry to
say that was party voe but every republican voted
in its favor. Let me see. continued Mr. Stevens, shak
ing his finger above his head The recreans VINO dares
to tread back upon his steps and vote the other SIDE
There was report OF committee OF conference after
wards the bill and the vote hcn stood 2 nays
TO- republican voting In favor oft9e measure. Then
came the vote 1t overung the Presidents veto. and
that vote was yeas So nays ii, every republican voting
in favor OF the bill. Now, then, let him who can
expect to get the only ground left II my article
is adopted Let him hopo, who dares TO hope that so
high body as that Senate will betray It's trust Will
forget It's own act will tread back Its own action will
disgrace itself in the iace OF the nation Point me out
who dares TO do it. aud you show me one who dares
10 be regarded as infamous by posery What chance,
then, has Andrew johnson with an article which was
left out in order 10 give HIM loop holeY You say how
fair We are tiausbterl What Chance has Andrew
johnson If that article be inscrtedP Unfortunate man,
thus surrounded hampered tangled in the meshes OF
his own wlcsedness! Unfortunate, unhappy man, be-
