as well il might for they were trying
the chief magistrate OF the most aug uSs
of the nations OF the earth. The eyes
Of the whole world were upon them.
The business began, and continued
through March and April, and Wen
along toward the end of May. Mouons
and counter motions were made. ChleI
justice Chase preside dand the most
powerful lawyers OF the nation deIlV-
cred speeches for and against the Illus
trious defendant.
All things must end, even the trial
Of a president of the United states, ana
the day came when the arguments were
closed. A vote was taken, by way OF
testing the strength of the presidents
foes. It was upon the 18th or last artl-
Gle, which read:
rs the respondent, Andrew Johnson,
guilty of a high misdemeanor' as
charged in this article?"
One after another the grave and rev.

desks and voted. In the midst of the
deepest silence the cIeIh ISau Lhs re

vote of tWO-thirds being required by
the constitution to convict the article
failed OF adoption.
The court adjourned until the 26th of
May, when a vote was taken on the
second article with precisely the same
results to 10. The third article was
then voted on, the result remaining the
same, Whereupon, on motion, the court
adjourned sine die
The great trial was over, and the
president had been saved by a single
vote.
