CHARLESTON. : <. r MONDAY MOENISG, LECEMBEE 18, 18C5. THC. PRESENT POSITION of antagonism be? tween die President and thc Congress of thc United States presents a case in which it he comes of interest and importance to determine what arc thc relative powers of these depart? ments, and what tho probable results of Mich a controversy. I If they were merely functionaries of the I Government, thc effect would simply he, of course, to stop its operations. Co-ordinate, and ? equally necessary to thc validity of acts, a [want of concurrence would neutralize the j whole. Rut they aro not functionaries me/ely. ! Congress at present is, also, thc exponent of j a party ascendant in almost all thc Northern ! States, which has won and seeks to wear thc j Government, and which, taking the form uf : Congress, infuses into it the hopes, fears, tcu I dencics and nature of that organization. The ; President, also, is not merely thc executive j agent, hut is thc'conservator of thc State ; charged tc ice that the State receive no dc I trimem; and, at present, the especial exponent I of whatever sentiment there may he of a rc , integrated and individual Republic. ir..jn? >.>.,.. . J..,.ui.-!iuuces, ii i-< not only possible for them to depart from their char? acters ns departments of thc Government, but, from the loree of circumstances, it must bo conic necessary that they shall do so. Tho mere protraction ol' thc controversy will bring them ti. that result. If thc President can lind means to administer the Government for a terni sufficiently extended, without transcend? ing thc limits of his authority, Congress will bc compelled to strike with what power* ii may possess within tho Government, or go before thc country fur support. Thc lapse .vf time might send them Liane for funds they cannot draw without appropriations requiring the approval of the President; or that avoided,; would send them home for re-election: when j the party, stripped of borrowed forms, would ! be forced to enter thc arena, und contest, with its real antagonist, thc Union, for the helm of Government. Rut such protraction may. sooner, try the President, and force him to acts which will bring tho issue to another forum. But little must elapse before he will have reached of appropriations. The present rc Government arc. doubtless, suf it. The receipts from itn UC, thc public lands and ;y, mny be made wants of the Co iy be, hy an ?f motives ources he JAILY NEWS....DECE upon the icsuo, will overlook ait nc ; of illegal- i hy, and remit their fortunes to thc conlingen- j c?es of snell election. Thttt election cnn, nt best,but give them thc control of Congress,! which Ibcjtjiiave already, and if forced at hist to vindicate its power?, it jvcu os safe to vindicate thom now. " In the way A impeachment there would I seem to be li^^drfficulty. Tho House can j I frame ibo articles, thc Senate try their, and, j both hostile, the conviction would seem, nf ! necessity., to follow: and if thc President and ! . Congres* were hal functionaries of thc Go ! vcrnment, this would bc the easy and final . , solution of thc difficulty. Congress would be i sustained hy the sentiment of the country, and j the President could have ito option but to sub- ; mit. But herc, again, the variant and vital . principles represented by the President uud j Congress assert themselves. Thc Congress will have been moved to its proceeding, not ! by thc scutimeut of tho country, but by lho j ! impulse of faction; tbe President will meet if. j i not as n functionary of the Government, but, ? j as tho representative ol'thc T'nitrii. As such j , representative, it will not be bis pleasure, nor j will it lie his privilege, to Bubmi. Whatever ?he may hove done, will have been dono to j sustain tho lunion against this faction; and j when ho .shal l reflect that thisv:ry faction,in tito guise of Congress, shall propose to im jpeach him-when it shall assume jurisdiction ' in its own cause, and u?c thc form of the na j tioual l?gislature but as thf iustrumcut willi ' which to inflict punishment for offences not i H tra i ns* ?Lc Republic,but against itself, asa fnc ; lion, spoking power over thc Republic-it is ' not clear that ho will feel tbe moral obliga ' tk.;i to submit; or that, with thc present pub . lie sentiment ?u favor of thc Union, bc is so I instant to assert, he wilt bo powerless to re? sist it. On the contrary, it would hot only I not bc hia duty-to submit, but lia would bc J very much more unfit for the trusts of his high : position, and very much le?? apt for emergen ; cics t!::in he is lisna I ly esteemed, ii" lie shall ; full before <a. i: adversaries; and if there yet ; exist thu nenliuicnt of nationality, if ?.??i.; ! Union be slrongor than a section, if thc con? servatism of thc Republic bc stronger than tho tendencies to dissolution, ho can do no net in support of Iiis position in such a contest that will not be avowed and sustained by thc country. In what form he inny make resistance, or what may be the further consequences, it were idle, perhaps, to conjecture. Eut to this issue thc occasion points, and iti? of satis? faction to perceive that tho President will have the motive to resistance and the power to sustain bini. OKITUA RT.
