the Union. With the War Department In
his hands, and the tenure Of Office act
broken down, he would be able 10 remove
Generals Grant, Sherman or Sheridan, or
any other officer who stood in his way,
aud all to his own personal advantage.
Under the circumstances it is certain be
would secure first the Democratic nomina-
ton, and second, the electoral votes
of these ten States. This done, he had
only to secure enough of the States repre-
sented Ia Congress he would defy the
House and Senate, should they attempt to
reject the votes of the ten States. He would
be sustained by his friends and supported
by the War Department, the Treasury De-
partment and the army and navy. He
would have been inaugurated On the 4th
of March next President for four years.
Mr.. Boutwell, then detailed the effects of
Mr.. Johnson's course as seen in the con9i-
ton of the South, and eontrasted his case
with several other public officers in this
and other countries who had been inn
peaehed, and appealed to the Senate to do
justice.
He closed by saying that his conviction
is a triumph of law of the order of Justice.
| do not contemplate his acquittal, it is i'm
possible, Senators. The people of America
will never permit an usurping Executive
to break down their securities for liberty,
provided by the Constitution. The cause
Of the country is in your hands, and your
verdict of guilty is peace to our beloved
land.
AT four o'clock, Mr.. Boutwell,, at the
suggestion of Mr.. Conkling, yielded to a
motion to adjourn, stating that he would
occupy about an hour and half tomorrow.
Accordingly the court immediately, and
thereafter the Senate adjourned.

READING CHIEF JUSTICE CHASE
OFT or THE PARTY

Whenever Radical shows disposi-
ton to act fairly towards his oppone nts
he is sure to call down upon himself the
maledictions of his party. This is very
iorcibly illustrated in the case Of Chief
Justice Chase. Assoon as be manifested
a disposition to be guided by the law in
the trial OF the President, he at once be-
came the target for the abuse Of the
Radicals. Prominent among his assail-
ants is the New York Independent, which
has assumed the task of reading the
Chief Justice out Of the Radical party.
That paper was one of the earliest advo-
Gates Of the election Of the Chief Justice
to the Presidency, but now it announces
that it will not any longer solicit the
Republican party to unfurl at their head
the banner Of has name And the rea-
son assigned by the Independent for this
course is, that the Republican party
can no longer with propriety look to Mr.
Chase to be one of its leaders, and least
OF all to be its chieG" That paper adds /:
eve now have reason 10 believe that
Mr. Chase would not accept the Republi
can nomination, even if it were rendered.
We have equal reason to believe, also,
that he would accept the Democratic
nomination if it could be rendered on a
platform not inconsistent with his we'll
known views Of negro suffrage"
This incident shows that party consid,
erations rise higher with Radicals than
justice and right Simply because the
Chief Justice did not pander to the wild
demand for the conviction and election OF
the President he is denounced as recre-
anti the party with which he has acted
since its organization This is the style
m which Judges are dashed into constru-
ing laws and rendering decisions to suit
the usurpers Of the present day.

confidence Of success which is the all in ali
in every fight We implore the people TO
sink passion and prejudice in respect to
men and things, and ponder grayely and
continuously as 60 what union Of elements
In the choice Of candidates will best insure
success. Let them weigh deeply and well
the whole matter, and be able TO counsel

first, should be TO well consider and weigh
the strength Of the enemy; and, second,
what men as means should be selected to
overthrow him. We do not know that we
can do better thing on the first head than
TO refer TO the late terrible struggles in New
Hampshire and Connecticut. 10 the for
mer State General Pierce took the ground
that the "battle was one Of the people, and
not Of party )" but the union of Democrats
with Conservatives was not what il should
have been practically under the idea sug-
gested by him, and therefore we lost the
State under the tremendous moneyed pres
sure brought to bear upon it. In Connec-
ticut, where last year and the present year

Radicalism was approximately projected,

that event a grand fight over the spoils
viii soon commences.
New Orleans elects a Democratic Mayor

boards in the Council are Democrats. Two
Democrats and two Radical Recorders are
chosen.
Accounts from the interior Of Alabama
and Mississippi report serious damage to
plantations from the late rains, and the
creeks are very high 10 many places and
running over the banks. Ii is feared a
general replsnting must be done.
Phelps, Of Maryland, endeavored to get
an investigation Of the facts concerning
WHY sherman was not called before court
by the managers after examining him in
committee. The conspirators refused to
allow the question to be sustained, as il is
known the conduct Of the managers will
not bear investigation.
A full-grown male panther was killed in
one Of the most populous parts Of Mobile,
on the morning Of the 10Th inst. He mea-
sured Elk feet ak inches between the tips

water, drove him from the swamps around
the city.
In Tampico, Mexico, a few days since,
Canales and an envoy Of Gen. Negrete pro-

murder.
A sea fowl commonly known as the
man-o' war bird, was captured in Selma,
Ala, a day or two since. 1t measured six
and half feet from tip to tip, and ia re-
garded great curiosity, having been ex-
amined by hundreds. He was doubtless
blown inland 10y the late storm, and
having lost his reckoning, he struck a tree
and crippled himself, so that his capture
was easy.

would dare approach Davis with such
proposition that his lofty pride and sense
Of honor would scout such an idea, and
Davis would he in court at the appointed
time.

AnAMAGsNa CONTRAST.

The New York Nation, as Radical
journal as is publshed in this country,
and which is one Of the ablest and most
respectable Of that class of papers, thus
speaks of the manner in which the trial
of the President has been conducted:
1--WE have nothing to say against the
ability Of the managers, but we have much
to say against the use they have made of
their discretion in committing the greater
part of the conduct of their cause 10 that
one of their members who cares least
for courtesy, for decorum, and for the dig
nifty and fairness of the trial. The con-
trast in demeanor between those who rep
resent the President and those who repre-
sent the House has been already sufficiently
marked, and il is q contrast on which few
people will look with anything but morti-
tication after the trial is over. If there
was to be a lack of decency on either side,
certainly it ought to have appeared on the
side Of the defendant, the more particu-
larry as the case against him is largely
made up Of a charge Of bad language and
rowdy behavior"
This is the language of a Journal which,
in the same number, urges the conviction
of the President, and to which end all its
energies have been directed The Nation
can hardly be accused of any favorable
leaning, either personally or politically,
toward the President, and yet it is forced,
by the necessity Of the circumstances, to
disembarrass its friends from the dis
grace Of being responsible for Butler.
Still, in spite of all this, says the Nation
al IHtelbgencer, he is the prominent &C
tor he dictates the rulings Of the ma
jority in the Senate, and, in case of sue
cess, he is to be the power behind the
throne greater than the throne 1t may
well be asked, to what pass have we
come when such things are possible ?
But revolution has no reason; and who.
ever reflects upon the condition Of affairs
must see that the extreme causes which
have brought into prominence such un-
worthy characters, will in their natural
reaction, consign them to an infamy
such as crushed and branded with eter-
nal detestation the chief actors in the
French revolution
