iuouI, III WHICH, tuo independence OF
the Executive in the matter of re.
moval from Office was fully sustained.
I think it will be found that in
subsequent discussions of this ques-
ton there was generally, if not at all
times. q proposition pending to in
some way curtail this power of the
President by legislation, which fur
nishes evidence that to limit such
power it was supposed to be neces-
sary to supplement the Constitution
by such legislation. The first en-
actment of this description was
passed under stress of partisan
ship and political bitterness, which
eliminated in the Presidents i'm
parchment. This law provided that
the Federal officers to which it ap-
piled could ouly be suspended dur
ing a recess of the Senate, when
shown by evidence satisfactory to the
President to be guilty of misconduct
in Office or crime or when incapable
or disqualified to perform their du-
ties, and that within twenty days af-
ter the next meeting of the Senate it
should be the duty of the President
to report to the Senate such suspen-
sion with the evidence and reasons
for his action in the case. This
statute, passed in 1876, when Con.
gress was overwhelmingly and bit
terly opposed politically to the Pres.
ident, may be regarded as an indi-
cation that even then it was thought
necessary by Congress determined
on the subjugation of the Executive,
to lesislate in order to furnish itself
with a law for that purpose, instead
Of attempting to reach the object in.
tended by an invocation of any pre-
tended constitutional rights. The
law which thus found its way to our
statute books was plain in it's terms,

President was subject to reviow by
the Senate, yet if the Constitution
and the lays have placed this respon-
sihility upon the Executive branch
Of the Government, it should not be
divided. nor the discretion which it
involves relinquished.
It has been claimed that the pre-
sent Executive having pledged him
self not to remove officials except
for cause. the fact of their suspen-
sion implies such misconduct on
the part of the suspended official
as Injuries his character and reputa-
ton, aud therefore the Senate should
review the case for his vindication.
1 have said that certain officials
should not, in my opinion, be re-
move during the continuance of the
term for which they were appointed,
soley for the purpose of putting in
their places those in political affilia-
ton with the appointing power, and
this declaration was Immediately
followed by a description of Off
cial partisanship which did not en-
title those in whom it was exhibited
to consideration. tits not apparent
how an adherence to the course thus
announced carried with it the con-
sequences described. If in any
degree the suggestion is worthy OF
consideration, IL is to be hoped that
there may be defense against the un-
just suspicion of the injustice of the
Executive.
Every pledge which 1 have made
by which l have placed limitation
upon my exercise OF the executive
power has been faithfully redeemed.
OF course the pretense is not put
forth that no mistakes have been
committed, but not one suspension
has been made except it appeared to

The Two Texts.
lNe,0 YORK Graphic.l

John Quincy Adams and John Hancock,
/" the Signer," married two sisters, the daugh-
tiers of a noted Methodist divine in Connecti-
cut. John Quincy was fayorite with the old
people, and Mary's choice was approved by
them. So, when the banns were published,
the parent said: Mary, if you will furnish
me the text, / will preach you a wedding SER
mon" She was equal to the task, and gave
the text, Mary hath chosen the good part,
which shall not be taken from her" Needless
to say that justice was done to the occasion and
the text. Not so with Margaret, who in the
meanwhile was receiving the attention of her
John in a very inexpensive way, as far as her
parents were concerned, for it is said that " he
never crossed his legs under their festive
board" So when the banns were published,
she said to her father: " Father, you preached
avoiding sermon for Mary cannot you preach
one for me?" He at first demurred, but ct
last consented, and called for the text, when
Margaret, who was equal to the occasion, said

A Good Reason.

In school in a college town the practice of
chewing gum became one of the popular en-
poyments of the smallest scholars Each child
followed the custom, until the chewing was
part of the regular routine The teacher finally
called stop to the proceedings, and gradually
the habit lessened. Finally all the pupils
obeyed the law except the son of one of the
college professors. This little boy chewcd and
chewed in great independence, regardless of
the teachers commands. At last she called
him out before the school. Tommy" she
said, have not told you not to chew gum ?"
"Yesm," he replied cheerfully, but l comes
of a family what chews gum"

II Puzzled Her.

The champion stupid girl in young ladies'
seminary approached her teacher the other day
and said How could John Adams, when he
was dying, send some toast to be drunk at the
Boston Fourth of July celebration? 1t says in
the history he sent a toast to be drunk" The
teacher endeavored to explain the matter. but
she heard the girl, who is l6 years old and
belongs to a wealthy and fashionable family,
remarking TO one of her mates later that Miss
c. might try to explain away things. but for
her part she would never believe that people
could drink toast, even if history did say so
