BELKNAP'S REJOINDER.
Why He Rcaigued.

WASHINGTON, April 2.-Mr. Belknaps coun-
sci in the impeachment matter filed their re-
joinder to the House replication to-day. The
only important portion is the last plea. In
sign as Secretary of War, he did not do it to
avoid impeachment. After setting out that
the testimony of Marsh affected persons con-
nected to him by domestic ties SO as to make
him willing to secure the suppression OF the
committees statement as affected other persons
his plea says that he the said Belknap, pro-
posed to said committee that if said committee
would suppress that part of said statement
which alluded to said other persons, he, the
said Belknap, although contrary to the truth,
would admit the receipt by him of all the
moneys stated by said Marsh to have been re-
ceved by him from one Evans, mentioned in
said statement, and paid over to Marsh by any
other person or persons, but the committee de-
clined to consider the proposition, and the
Hon. Hester Clymer, chairman of said COM
mittee, then declared to said Belknap that he
(Clymer) should move in the House of Repre-
sentatives, on the statement of said Marsh, for
the impeachment Of him (Belkuap) unless said
Belknap should resign his position of Secre-
March I'd, 1S76,and Said Belknap regarding this
statement of said Clymer the chairman as be-
foresald, as an intimation that he (Belknap)
could by thus resgning avoid the affection in
separable from protracted trial in a form
which would attract the greatest degree of
public attention to the humiliation of
availng himself of the defence disclosed
in said statement itself, which would
cast blame upon said other persons,
he yielded TO the suggestion made by said ely
mer, believing the same was made in good
faith and that be (Belknap) would by resigning
his position as Secretary Of War secure speedy
dismissal of the said statement from the public
mind which said statement though it involved
no criminality on his part was deeply painful
to his feelings, and did resign his said position
as Secretary of War and caused said committee
to be notified of his resignation and of the
acceptance thereof by the President of the
United States, all of which was in pursuapce
and consequence of said suggestion SO made bv
Clymer and therefore said committee declared
they had no further duty to perform in the
premises.
And he (Belknap) submits that while said
House of Representatives claim that said
Clymer was acting on its behalf in said pre-
tended examination of Marsh, said House
ought in honor and law to be estOpped to deny
that said Clymer was also acting on behalf Of
said House In suggesting the resignation of
said Belknap as aforesaid and ought not to be
heard ia complain of resignation thus in
duced. And this he (Belknap) is ready to
verify, wherefore he prays judgment if said
House of Representatives ought to have or
maintain the impeachment against him.
