Tho STAMINA.

A very interesting question arose in
the Circuit Court day or two since, in
volving a construction of the revenue
law. The plaintiff sued on q note, (which
had the requisite amount of stamps on
it. but the stamps had not been cancelled,
and the question was, whether the fail
ure to cancel rendered the note invalid.
Judge Cary held that it a party
fails to put the requisite stamp and
cancel it, with the intent to evade the
law, that then such party is liable to a
fine of fifty dollars but the note, il
stamped properly, is not void merely for
want of cancellation. He held that the
object of the law was to secure The reve-
nue. to the government, and if it was APP
parent, by the stamp, that the govern
ment had got its dues, the note was good,
and proper to 60 in evidence before the
Jury. We do not see how the Judge
could have decided otherwise, and such
was the sentiment Of the bar. 1t quite
an important decision, and certainly
correct; otherwise it is in the power Of
every one to defeat his own note, unless
the stroke of pen is across the stamp,
after the government has received its
dues. Messrs. Bate and Williams for
plaintiff; Burch and Parker for defend

Mr.. Evsrts then asked what passed
between them
Mr.. Butler objected, and before The
question was put 10 writing the SENATE

Mr.. Evarts asked o few preliminary
questions, eliciting the fact that the con.

Stanton; and, In answer TO a questlon
from Secretary Welles, had said thai zen

Mr. Butler argued against admitting
this testimony, aud reiterated his views
regarding the duties OF members OF the
Cabinet, viz That they could not give

neeted with their own departments, and
also said that the evidence OF the wit.

Yesterday referred to the appointment Oh

opinion that it was admissible, and the

Secretary Welles then testified that the
President told the Cabinet that he had

time enough to remove his papers. Inis
communication was made in conformity
with the regular routine, and after the

The Tenure Of. Office law was first brought
before the Cabinet in February, 1866,

that they had advised its return, with the
objection that it was unconstitutional and

Terrible outrage I'm Baisimerc.


The Ku-Kluxes are at work again. A
great outrage was committed in Baiti-
more last week. A peaceful citizen was
arrested in broad daylight, and torn from
bis own house and family under circum'
stances Of unparalleled atrocity. The
following account of the matter, which
we take from the Peoples Weekly, shows
q state of things calling loudly for i'm
parchment and the immediate attention
Of Gen. Scho6eld. The country is in
danger
As John R. Johnson, the artist, was
quietly at work in his studio, getting
ready for his trip to Europe, he was in
vaded by the X. X. KS. The terrible
John Morgan of this raid was recognized
as no other than Squire Hayward. His

rendered at discretion TO overpowerlng
numbers. He was taken prisoner, but
not handcufGed. Then his peaceful pur-
suit of art gave way to fun, frolic, cham
payne, speeches, toasts, songs. etc., etc.
After putting him through the ceremo-
MES of leaveiakinr, in due form Of the
Order, the X. K KS released their pris-
oner without bail or ransom, with many
wishes for safe voyage, a prosperous
visit to Europe, and a speedy return to
his many friends in Baltimore.

The high Court Of Impeachment.

Such are the provisions of the Consti-
tuition that the trial of the President OF
the United States on articles of impeach.
ment must take place before the Senate.
However violent the bias Of the members
of the Senate may be against the person
on trial, or however strongly they may
have committed themselves directly to
his conviction, or indirectly upon the
suffieiency of the evidence, there are no
means, either through challenge of the
panel or of its individual. members, by
which the element that is unfit for the
purposes Of justice may be eliminated,
This does not prove that men, because
they are members of the Senate, have a
right to sit aud vote the officer on trial to
be guilty or innocent accordingly as they
are moved by their passions, their inter
ests or their prejudioss, They are none
the less under moral obligation to do
Justice because there are no means to
remove them in case they are aotuated
by feelings which might prompt them to
do injustice.
The attempt to show that the Senate
of the United States, when organized
under the presidency Of the Chief JUS
| tice, is not a court, implies desire, on
the part Of those who take this positiop,
to escape the obligation which they
admit would attach TO them as members
Of a court-the obligation to do Justice
according to the law and the evidence. II
the trying body Is not court, then (such
is the idea) the members OF which it is
composed are. TO use the Often repeated
phrase OF General Butler, "a law
unto themselves, in other words, the fact
that they want TO get rid Of Mr.. johnson
is a sufficient reason for voting him cut
Of Office. II, on the other baud, il is q
coart, the Constitution and the common
law OF the land, including the established
rules Of evidence, are binding upon them
and the President must be proven, BY
competent testimony, guilty OF high
crimes and misdemeanors, specifically
charged in the articles, before he can be
removed.
The Senate becomes q court from the
necessity Of the case, and BY the force Of
CIRCUMSTANCES To put man on trial
without charges would be contrary 10 the
spirit Of the Constitution-for impsach-
msnt implies charges-contrary 10 the
plainest principles Of justice, and TO the
Iast degree absurd. Charges imply
proof and the confinement Of the testi.

NASHVILLE, April l6.-Some Of the
counties in this Slate are moving on the
matter Of appointing delegates to Dem
ocratic State Convention, although the
latter has not yet been called. There is
a good deal of timidity manifested in
calling a State Convention, as Brownlow
has repeatedly threatened to suppress
such gathering if it should inaugurate
a movement, peaceful or otherwise, look
ing to the enfranchisemsnt of the whites.
Among the Conservatives OF the State
johnson is the first choice for President.
In case of his removal ineligibility, the
more far-seeing and prominent men in
the party are decidedly in favor of some
other candidate than Pendleton, mainly
on the ground that the latter is not avail.
able.
There is a great dealot dissatisfaction
against Superintendent Innes, of the
Northwestern railroad, for ordering his
trains not to run to Hickman. The
State Board of Finance has demanded
an explanation of his strange action. II
is not improbable that this road, owing
to the complications and difficulties with
which it is surrounded, may soon pass
under the control of the Nashville and
Chattanooga road. Els
