ing everything from political criminal to a

pensions he intended to examine. Nelson
proceeded to sketch the Presidents early
career and passed a high encomium upon
his patriotism and public services. He did
not address the Senate as politicians but as
Judges. He referred to the outs de pressure
which unworthy persons and journals sought
to bring to bear upon them and said he was
confident they would repel it with indigna-
ton. If he could believe the result of the
trial was a foreSoue conclusion he would not
consent to address them. He proceeded to
defend President Johnson's policy at some
length. He said the Senate was clearly d

denounced the statements advanced BY the
Managers that the Senate is bound bv no
common or statute law, but was law unto
Itself, and that common fame was sufficient
evidence and ground for its action as start
