The Bee maintains that all the pro
ceedings of the House tending to i'm
parchment have been strictly legal an,
conformable to accepted usages, whereas
the action Of the Senate was not onl,
without precedent but also violative o
the plain provisions of law. The in
decent haste shown by this latter bod,
in orgdiiizing the court Of impeachmen
land ,acquitting Kellogg before The
charges against him were presented b,
the House. 1t considers, besides being
tlagrahtly violative of the constitution
and the law. as having all the appear.
ances Of a conspiracy to shield the
pseudo.Governor from the dangers of 4
trial. II calls upon the House topresent
the articles adopted yesterday, and II
the Senate refuses to receive them it be-
comes a revolutionary body, and the
House must then take steps to secure to
the State constitutional government.

The Republican, considers that tho
House will effect nothing by the re-
newal yesterday of it's persecution of
the Governor, as it's attempt to present
the charges adopted by 1t to the Senate
will probably be foiled by the adjourn
ment sine die OF that body Immediately
on its assembling to-day. It says that
Kellogg will not be removed from office.
for If the Senate adjourn as above the
Indictment, not having been presented
to that body, can have no force or effect
and If it is presented, the House cannot
hope for convictions, as 1t will be the
work Of, no more than Ave minutes to
obtain a vote of iacquittal. 1t accuses
the Conservatives in the House of hay
ing neglected their duties to make
political capital, and suggests the posi-
bility Of things being 50 complicated on |
the adjournment to-day that martial |
law will be required to straighten them
out. .il3@l}'.i,4i sl gnoi -
The Picayune thinks that the Senate
having, in the impeachment matter,
upon a bold assumption and,
Of every rule Of law, reason
and justice, having acquitted its leader,
chief and dictator OF charges which had
never been preferred before it, the
House could not receive the announce
nent yesterday Of trial In the conduct
Il which they had not been allowed to
AXE part, 1t thinks this trial null, and
hat Kellogg being at this moment ac-
used before the bar II the Senate,
hould Antoine refuse Il, assume the
'ffice which now devolves upon him,
speaker Estilette should do so, he being
he next in the order OF succession.
The Bulletin says that an uneasy feel !
ng exists in the public mind lest some Z
may grow out of the differ
noes between the two branches of the
and thinks that this feeling 2
ives its origin to the Senate's refusal to i
i've effect to the, implied conditions of a
ne compromise, and to the improper 7
tanner in which the House approached y
ne question of impeachment by voting n
le Impeachment before it had drawn i,
p the charges, The grecom OF. the lat a
'r be dy was, however, completed YES /"
'rday, and the Republicans must bear
le odium Of the subterfuge by which i
le Senate avoided trial. q, .a.h = /" !, :
