found that from the archives of the
Rebel government had been unearthed

CAUSE OF THE SUPPRESS
SION OF THE LOUISIANA
MESSAGE.
The Presidents fear OF Impeach-
mCnt.

The real cause of the suppression of
the Presidents Message un the Louis
ia:.a nUuStrosiiy was revealed to-day
by very ordinary circumstance. 1t
appears Thar the President. determined
{" carry into effect his des ire to unload
proposed L. pui upon Congress the re-
spuTsii.iiitY of setting the Louisiana
matter right. When. however. il was
made o appear that his message might
eutraP him aud he used naaiust the
republican party - good grounds for
his parchment. he suddenly became
converted. ahd realized that he had
been guided Icy lawyers who were net
Statesmen aud statesmen who were
nat lawyers. Now, what Senator Car
peEter prupust is tn relieve ne Prcsi-
dent ot the 0iium of impeachment
fame, and lie will claim, IN the con-
cluSi"n al his speech tomorrow, that
the Louisiana case never presented
facts giving the President jurisdic-
ton under constitutional law. so far as
political issue or the legal status of the
state of Louisiana were concerned, -
II Is well known that at one time the
President stated tha; lie never designed
to recognize The Kellogg government,
and M. Carpenter will maintain that
wherein the President has been. unau-
thoriZed or inconsidcratc i'll his action,
tie loose and CXtravaGant advice and
supcrserviceablc intcrmedling of AT
tOrnCy-Gcncral Williams has been the
occasion and the excuse of all qScs-
tinnahle Executive action. This is all
that Mr.. Carpenter can allege i'm de-
fence Of the President, and whether
the case is decided for or against. by
the Committee on Privileges and Eiec-
tons, the President will find himself
in an uncomfortable position, worthy
of Impeachment, through the assump-
ton Of authority or its exercise at the
suggestion of such partisan advisers.
