Mr. Conkiiny and the Independent
Press.

We print elsewhere this morning sugges-
tive article from our celestial contemporary
the Sun in reference to Senator Conkling as
the candidate of New York for the nomina-
ton of the republican party for the Presi-
dency. Sixty years have elapsed, says the
Sun, since tho anti-democratic party has
taken candidate from New York. The last
candidate of this character was the illus
trious Rufus King, who ran as kind of pro-
test against James Monroe. The republican
party owed great deal to the genius and
courage Of Seward. Thatstatesman would
have been its candidate in 1850 but for the
opposition of Mr.. Greeley and n few other
New York politicians who were animated by
motives Of strong personal hatred and dis
appointed ambition. That defeat was accom-
plished on the same grounds as those now
urged against Mr.. Conkling. Seward, it was
said, was too radical, too much party man,
too much involved with machine" men.
SO. in a spirit Of cant, he was beaten. Now
the republican party owes a nomination to
New York No State has so many republican
candidates for the Presidency as New York.
No State has done so much for the triumph
Of the Union. A few Yankees like Mr.. Curtis
and some Of the old fogics Of the Union
League who have no pride in the State, who
believe in nothing but the New England So
ciety, and who look upon New York as
a place to make money and to leave when
tho money is earned; cabal of Yankee poll
ticians like the eloquent essayist on man
ncrs, fashions and chow to behave, may in
triguc against Mr.. Conkling. Their success
would be a humiliation and vexation to no
one as much rs the President
The fact that tho independent press of
New York. as represented by the sun, sup
ports Mr.. Conkling shows the hold he has on
tho affections Of the party and confirms the
judgment Of the President in asking his

The Impeachment Trial

The trial of General Belknap by the Sen.
ate, acting as court of impeachment, will
begin to-day The President pro tenn. of the
Senate, Mr.. Ferry, will preside throughout
the trial, and as he was bred business man
and not a lawyer he will pass through a
pretty severe ordeal. The Senate in the
trial of an impeachment sits as court and
like ordinary courts of judicature, it must be
governed by legal maxims and the established
rules of evidence. Mr.. Ferry's Michigan col
league, Senator Christiancy, would be fit.
ter presiding officer on such an occasion, fol-
he is a learned jurist and has had long ex-
perience in the highest judicial Office in his
State. Until now there has never been an
impeachment trial at Washington which was
not presided over by a trained lawyer. The
Chief Justice presides when the President OF
the United States is impeached, but this
has happened OILY once when Chief
Justice Chase indicated his own dignity and
asserted the rights of the accused by a ruling
which probably determined the result Of the
trial. Only lawyer could have such we'll
grounded confidence in his own judgment as
would justify him in making such ruling.
Next to the case of Andrew johnson, the
most important impeachment trial was
that of federal judge in the early
part Of this century, when Aaron Burr
presided, Vice President Burr was
lawyer by profession, and remarkably
astute and dexterous one, and he presided
over the trial of Judge Chace with equal
dignity and ability. 1t remains to be seen
whether mere business man like Mr. Ferry
will acquit himself with credit as the pre-
siding judge of the most imposing court
known to ourinstitutions. If he should make
hasty or improper decisions the Senate, which
is the real court and abounds with good law
yers, would override him: but it would be
unfortunate if his decisions were often called
in question.
Not much progress is to be expected to-day
in the Belknap trial We suppose his counsel
will present his formal reply to the charges
and disclose the line Of defence. The Court
will then allow reasonable time for the
preparation of arguments and fix day tor
the hearing. 1t is expected that General Bel.
knap's counsel will deny the jurisdiction OF
the Court in a case where the person i'm
pcached is ont OF Office and if the Senate
should sustain this view She case will be dis
missed. But If the Senate decides that Il
has jurisdiction we suppose there can be no
reasonable doubt Of the result of the trial.

nomination. For this reason the President
should adopt the old Jackson method In
compelling from his party, and especially
from his Cabinet, harmonious action on this
question. When jackson made up his mind
that Van Buren, should succeed him, and
that Calhoun should not, he smashed his
Cabinet in pieces because he detected a Cal
houn intrigue and found men who would
support his IDEAS The President should
have Cabinet which gives Mr.. Conkling
hearty support, and not one that is striving
to elect one of its own number, or as it now
stands, three of its number, for of the Cab
met three-Fish, Jewell and Bristow-are
actively in the fight against Conkling and
tor themselves.

Easter Sunday for some years back has
and as the HERALD as a representative news
paper follows the natural laws of business
we note that Easter Sunday is generally the
busiest and most prosperous day in the year,
so far as the advertising columns of
the paper are concerned. This tide
begins with the beginning of the
spring trade, and comes to its fitness
about Easter Sunday. Thus, yesterday
we printed two more columns of adver-
tisements than we did the Sunday previous,
although on both Sundays we were COM
PEELED to have twenty page paper. The
aggregate number of the advertisements thus
printed was more than three thousand three
hundred and fifty, within few Of the num-
Der we printed the Sunday previous. There
are some features about the character of this
advertising which would justify careful
study and might be basis of an interesting
article. Thus, in one department alone. that
of real estate about this time of the year in
normal times our columns have hun
dreds of advertisements from those who
wish to sell city property. But this
year there are few Of this class.
On the other hand there is an unusual in
crease in the advertising which represents
persons who live in the country and wish
either to sell their places or exchange them
for city property. Whether it is because
rapid transit is driving people from the Jcr-
scys and Long Island into Westchester and
on the Island we cannot say; but the subject
is curious illustration Of the fidelity with
which the representative newspaper of the
country rchects every phase of business life
and necessity.
We think that as far as we can read the
columns Of the Herald, the business pros
poets of tho city are better now than many
have anticipated. The fact that the owrers
of real estate in the city prefer to hold their
Investments to selling them at panic prices
is good sign. Altogether we may feel that
We arc to have better year than we
have had for some years past. There is
tho Centennial as an artificial impulse
to help Us, as well as our plucky
and well deserving city of Philadelphia.
We shall have the election, also, in its way Il
stimulus to business activity and enterprise.
So that, looking into the future from the emil
nencc of our seventy-threc columns Of nd
vcrtiscments, and the hundred and forty
thousand papers which contained them, VIC
may feel that the centennial year will be n
year Of prosperity as well as rejoicing
The New York herald. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1840-1920, 1876-04-17
. tho Cabinet Pull Together for
Grant and Conkling.

The fact that the President has come to
the conclusion that, in the absence of any
chance for third term, he can find no re.
publican who can give better expression
to the views of his administration and
whose election would be more complete
justification of his policy than Mr.. Conkling,
simplifies the canvass SO far as the party
is concerned. But fact calculated to do
harm is that the Presidents own Cabinet is
not in harmony with his policy. Thus we
have three members of the Cabinet who are
now candidates for the Presidency. The
first is Mr.. Fish, who has a strong following
in New York, headed by such men as Mr..
Pierrepont, Mr.. Jay and other eminent citi
zens. Then we have Mr.. Jewell, who comes
from strong, hard-headed State; hand
some man, who would make as popular
candidate with the ladies as our own incom-
parable Wickham, the Tammany candidate
for the Vice Presidency, and who has
strong following in New York and Con-
necticut. The next candidate is Bris.
tow, whose nomination is senti.
ment and bids fair to assume new
and bold prominence. Unless checked by
the power of the administration now there
would be no reason for the republicans OBJ
iecting to either of these most estimable
gentlemen; but as we have programme
laid down by the President there is no rea-
son why it should not be observed The
power of these statesmen over the canvass
is marked when we remember that one has
the Foreign Department, the other two the
Post Office and the Treasury, the two most
important departments in the government
so far as patronage is concerned.
When Mr.. Chase allowed his ambition to
be President to go beyond all restraint he
was hustled out of the Cabinet by the anna
BILE Lincoln, who could stand many things,
but would not permit any brother near his
throne. When, in Jacksons time, Samuel
d. Ingham, also Secretary of the Treasury,
showed a desire to support Calhoun against
the wishes of the President, to whom CAL
houn was especially obnoxious, he, too, was
hustled out of the Cabinet. Now, we do not
see why Grant should have different rule
in his Cabinet from that of jackson and Lin
coin.
More than all, if we have the President
holding one opinion about the Presidential
nomination and members of the Cabinet
holding different opinions the result will be
that the friends of the Presidents candidate
will think that he is not sincere in his devo-
ton that he has another policy from what
he avows that he has, perhaps, ''darl
horse" of his own to run in at the last mo.
ment. Let there be no misapprehension, no
double dealing, about this matter. To that
end let the President say to his Cabinet that
he means not only to support Mr.. Conkling
for President as his personal choice, but to
rally to his support the whole strength of the
administration

CoSxIINo.-From the Tennessee papers
we gather the fact that of the three probable
Presidential candidates, Blaine. Morton and
Conkling, the two first are out of the race
and Conkling stands alone. In North Caro-
lima the foresight of the HERALD in making
Conkling the probable candidate is SO far
appreciated that the election of that states
man is prognosticated. Virginia, too,
seems to recognize the fact that Conkling is
as legitimately tho follower Of Grant as Van
Buren, was the follower of Jackson. In each
case the successor represents the statesman
ship which follows an administration based
on military popularity.
