Tito Directors declining to make 1 then.: pre* fcrrcd creditors, tboy invoked the assistance of , ?e^hilHt?^ their behalf; ?and an order was promulgated directing the refunding of tho entire amount deposited.

Daisy Dah\ Taju Yiew. . Tho Last. Presidential Message*. Wit t. :. 14 ? > " I -4 ? 1 " 'Thc.Vot? of the second Supplementary Act, after repeating.tho objectioiis previously urged against the constitutionality of the Keconstruc tion programme of Congress, concludes with the following remarks J ft ? Within a period-less than a year the legisla tion of Congress has attempted to ? strip the Executive department of the .Government of some of its essential powers. The Constitution 'and tho oath provided in it devolves upon tho President the power and the duty to see thaj^ the laws are faithfully executed. The Consti tution, in order to carry out this power, gives him the choice of the agents, and makes them subject to- his control ami supervision. But in the execution of thc?e laws the constitutional obligation upon the President remains, but the power to exercise that constitutional duty is ef fectually taken'away. The military commander is, as to the power of appointment, made to take the .place of the President, and the. gcheral of the army the place uf tho Senate, and any attempt on' the .part of the President to assert his own consti tutional powers may, under prctonco of law, be I met by official insubordination. It is to be feared that, theso military officers, looking to the authority given by these laws, rather than to tho letter or the constitution, will recognize no authority but the commander, of tho district and the genoral of the army. If there were no other objection -than this to this proposed legislation, it would be sufficient. Whilst I hold tho chief executive authority of tho United States, whilst tho obligation rests upon me to see thut all the laws are faithfully .ex?cutcd, I can pever willingly surrender that trust, or the power given for its execution. I can never give my assent to be made re sponsible for the* faithful execution of laws and at the same time surrender that trust and tho powers which aocompany it to any other execu tive officer, high or low, or to any number of executive officers. * If this executive trust, vested by the consti tution in the Prcsidont is to be taken from him and vested in a subordinate officer, the respon sibility will bo with Congress in clothing the subordinate with unconstitutional power, nnd with the officer who assumes its exercise. This interference with the constitutional authority of.tho executive department is an evil that will inevitably sap the foundations of our fedo ral system ; but it is not tho worst evil of this legislation. It is a great public wrong to take from tho President powers conferred upon him alone by the constitution, but the wrong is more flagrant and more dangerous whon tho powers so taken from the Prcsidont aro confer red upon subordinate executive officers. Over nearly one third of the States of tho Union military power, regulated by no fixod law, rules supremo. Each one of theso five district commanders, though not chosen by tho people or responsible to thorn, exercise at this hour more executive power, military rnd civil, than the people havo ovor boon willing to confor upon the head of the executive department, though not ehoson by and responsible to themselves. The remedy must como . from tho people themselves. They.know what it iB, and how it is to applied. At the prcsbnfc time they caunot, according to tho constitution, repeal these laws, thuy cannot remove or control this military despo tism. Tho remddy, nevertheless, is in thoir hands f it is to be found in tho ballot, and is a snT? ope, \f not controlled by fraud, overawed by arbitrary power, or from, apathy on their denco in their patriotism, wisdom and integrity/!' I am still hopeful of {ho future, and that tho rod of despotism ^ill he 'brokoh, tho armed, rule'; of power 'be lifted from tho necke of the P<?HeSgndShe ftfrrincime? ?p Violated constitution preserved. \Jt\ ^ Washington, D.

Mr. Randall (JDem., Pa.) w^uld like tho cjwijcp to mo';', ;;1C impcachcrs befyrp the peo j'pie. H'^ 0n on Id like to meet them faco to face, right in tho enemy's camp. He assorted that they did not mean to impeach tho Presi dent ; they did not dare to do it. .-? "What had tho President done that ho should bo im peached? 'Had he not been honest, faithful, diligent and correct in ovcry particular i Lot them, then, if they dare, attempt to impeach tho President. * * ? * . * * * . ? Mr. Butler ( Hop.. Mass.)?I admit that the gentleman from Pennsylvania (Mr. Randall) uttered one truth in his remarks, and that was, that wo dare not do our duty here in that re spect. With shamc.and confusion of lace, I, for ono, bow to the truth of that remark. And the question is: How,soon will we be ready to do our duty ? * . * * . , \* * * * The President declares that no particle of thq.land in the Southern States has become the property of too United States by conquest. I cannot for au instant, allow that statement to go unchallenged. Kvcry loot of land that was occupied by the enemy of the I'nited States, and was by the valor of its soldiers, repossessed by the United States, became thereupon tho property of tho United States.* To say that a title by conquest pertains only to personal property and moveablc things, is to ignore tho entire law of nations ; lot while it has not been usual in conquering nations to appropriate the proprietary title of the land from motives of public policy,"yet T think T may challenge tho entire body of writers of the rights of war, and ask if there can be found any one line in denial of the right to appropriate jaiid thus ac quired, I shall, therefore, ask the considera tion of the House to the fact whether or not the right by conquest is not a perfect one, to be exercised in our judgment as may seem best, either in incrcy, in clemency, in justice, or in right?precisely as wc please?and not other wise. Having thus brought before tho House these mi.Shtateinents of facts and wrong conclu sions of law. T, for one, am ready to vote that this shall become a law, notwithstanding the voto of the President, and then sec whether he will execute it, or whether the House of Rep resentatives will bring him, for his former vio lations ol the Constitution, before the Senate for trial, according to the mode, and the only mode, pointed out by the Constitution to re lieve the country from the oppressions of a bau j ruler. Mr. Boyer (Dem , Pa.) took the floor for five minutes Mr. Williams (Rep., Pa.) said bo sympa thised very deeply with tho eloquent utterances of his friend from Massachusetts (Boutwell). There was a time whon forbearance ceased to be a virtue, and he thought that time had come. Tor tho first time in the history of the country the Chief Executive Magistrate of tho country strode into the halls of Congress, into the Con stitutional Chamber of the nation, and flung .his mace in the way of defiance at tfie feet of Congress. When was this controversy to end'/' # He * * * * * It had been widely disseminated through the country that tho charges against tho Executive Magistrate were merely frivolous. That opin ion had found utterance on both sides of the House, but those who hold the contrary opin ion wero prepared to show, whenover they were allowed to provo it to tho House and tho na tion, that there was a case against tho Presi dent. It was not for him to say what it was, ho could not do so without a violation of con fidence as a member of the Judiciary Commit tee. * *. * *' ??* * Mr. Sclionck (Rep., ()hio)aecoptod five min utes' time, and said it would suffice fur what he had to pay Tho Socrotary of tho Treasury, in a speech delivered some time ago to u mob in this-oity, lud suid that ho regarded CongrosK, er.s.

The President stood now as an obstacle iu tho path way. .*. * * * *? * - Mr. Stevcps? (?cpX f? lk&y* ? I agree pro-j ci?cly with the eloquent speech of my amiablcj ] colleague across the Way (Randall) that We can-j not impeach the President of the United States. But I say to our friends on this sido who arc urging that measure that they are urg ing it in vain. The result of my motion the other day clearly disclosed that, and, without; | attempting to make disclosures, T uudcrtako to say that there arc unseen agencies nt work?' | there arc invisible powers at work in this coun try which will provent the impeachment of the I Prcsidont. I have taken some pains to Under stand the composition of the House and the composition of the Senate, and. I am quite cer tain that there arc enough of persons in the House 'first/to prevfaht the pfeBcntatjotf Of ar-i tielca of impeachment; and secondly, that there arc enough porsons in the' Senate if ur-' ticks of impeachment were voted, to prevent the conviction ^f the President. So that I re peat any ftttcnvpt rd inipcnclothe President will be vain and futile. It is imnp/.'uie l0 picrco the pau?phy v;Vichsurroun<}sthc White House. T.lv%! President starfs by assorting in his mes sage what, if true, would support all th ehrest of his argument. Ho says the Constitution of the United .'tntcs'js theoretically operative iu the cobqnered provinces of 'the South. ?Hi that" was two thon rill wd' havo done here ??is rank usurpation. I deny that the Constitution, is .-cither .theoretically.or actually iu operation iu any pf theso S.tates. I am sorry to say that not all ?ur statesmen, profound as they are, and that not all of our judges, learned as they arc, not even the highest'among them, seem to havo J lookod sufficiently to the bottom?of the law of nations to understand tho truo condition of u conquered people. And yet a slight examina tion of one page of, Froflips, of half a page or half a lecture of lluthcrforu, one page of Vut tol, and even less than th?! of the last, niid best, and tcrsct of publicists?Scigeant Wild man?wi'l convince every mtih that the truo position of the late (Jon.fedursta States > is. thai of a conquered territory uf tlie .United States. That bei tig admitted, all the rest of reconstruc tion is as easy us niiy of the. problems of Euclid. Many of our people have relied on Blackstonc and Whoaton and other ancient and modern publicists, and havo become familiar with them, while tho occupant of the White House was engaged in a very laud..blo business, but one not much calculated to instruct and adorn that cud of the human frame, There fore, sir, I make allowance a mil indulgence on the errors of that honorable gentleman. 1 now mov^thc previous question. Messrs. Wilson (Hep.. Iowa) and ?Pntyn ( Dem., Ni Y.')appealcd to Mr.Steveus to allow each of them sonic time to address tho House. Mr. Stevens consented, to do so, and j'ielded first to Mr. Pruyn, who said : I agree with tho gentleman from Pennsylvania as to those first principles which he nt the foundation of the national law to which he bus referred, nnd that the authors he has named are authorities which cannot be di.-rcgurded hero, but whose opinions and views uro conclusive on the question be fore tho House. The difficulty is iu applying that law to tho case before it. The gentleman from Pennsylvania in the Thirtieth Congress announced what 1 considered to be, and wlmt the country considered to bo, a startling propo sition ; that by reason of tho proclama tion of blockade so-called, the war had become a war between nations, and hence forth it was a struggle betweon two great par tics, and that the conquering party hau ri right to do with the conquered what it p' ?u. jd. That was in the face of tho solemn proolama tion of both Houses of Congress, passod un animously after tho struggle had reached its height, after the first battle of Bull Bun, that it was not a war between nations, but it was a wor to enforce the provisions of the Con stitution, acknowledging all tho rights of the States, aud declaring that as soon as the strug gle terminated, terminate how it might, these States wore to bo restored to their relations to the Union. Tho facts of the case horctofore do not bear out tho inference which the gen tloman from Pennsylvania endeavors to give, the very sound law to which he has referred, but, on tho contrary, places us in a position iu which ,we have said to tho world that those principles of law do. not apply, and did not .ap ply to vho struggle iu which tho North was en gaged with the South. As to the gentlemen from Massachusetts who first spoke (Mr. Bout well), wo all know that this subject of impeach ment has become so thoroughly imbedded in his mind, that on no occasion docs he fail to .present it to tho House. Wo arc here called upon to discharge a solomu duty under the Constitution, and declare v.hcthcr, notwith standing tho reasons which tho President has assigned against the passage of the bill, it shall become a law. Instead of discussing that ques tion, the gentleman from Massachusetts has honored us with tho reason why thc.PycaJaqnV should bo. iiepoaahed< .
