:'i iu ! Saps-erne'c-^--* ~..p?)ino Court
-_ ?uovicn Chose dehverod an opinion
in tho caso of. tho State of Mississippi against
President Johnson and General Ord on motion
for lea voto file a bill restraining them from tho
execution of the Reconstruction Act. .Tho Court
dissented from the argument of counsel that tho
President is required to perform merely a ministe?
rial act, >md hold that the terms ministerial and
executive arc by no means equivalent in import, i ?
A minis te rial duty, tho performance of which may
be required of the head of a department by judi?
cial process, is - ono in rospoct to wbioh nothing is
left to discretion. On tho other hand it is the duty
of tho President to soe that tho laws .are faithfully
executed, and among these laws is the Recon?
struction Act. ' :.. ?. V.-:?? -.'?.' j t
An attempt on the part of tho Judicial Depart
ment to enjoin the performance of such duties by
tho President might justly bo characterized, in
the language of Chief Justice Marshall, as an ab?
surd ana excessive extravagance. Congress is the
legislative part of tho Government. The Presi?
dent-is' tho Executive Department., Neither can
be restrained in its action by the Judicial Depart?
ment, though the acts of both, whoa -'performod,
are in proper cases aubject to its' cognizance. ?
The Court proceeded to show tho impropriety
of such mterferonce by considering the probable
consequences, and concluded as follows : "It has
been suggested that the BUI contains a prayer
that, if tho relief sought cannot bc held against
Andrew Johnson as President, it may be granted.
against him as a citizen of Tennessee, but it is
plain that relief against tho execution of an Act of
' Congress by Andrew Johnson is relief against its
execution by .the President: A Bill praying for an.
injunction against the execution of an Act of Con?
gress by tho incombent of tho Presidential Office
cannot be received, whether it describes him as
President or simply as the citizen of a State. ; Thc
motion for leave to file the Bill is therefore denied."
Bathe case of the State of Georgia against cor-,
tain officers, the Attorney-Gcnoral makes no ob?
jection to tho policy of the Bill, and ho will there?
fore grant leavo ta lile that Bill.:
Judge Sharkey said that the objection to the Bill
that he attempted to file seemed to be that it was
an effort to enjoin the-President. : The Bill was not
filed, and he could reform it' to suit tho views of
the Court and present it again.
The Chief Justice replied that loavo to file tho
motion ia refused;', .when another Bill is presented
it will be considered..
Mr. Sharkey said, 1 understand the Court to say
that an application. should.be made on Thursday :
to'wmch-tne-Ohief Justice assented. Thusende'cL
for the presBnt, the proceedings in the Court. . Sub?
sequently a : subpoena' was ordered to be issued
against General rope, 'camniano'ihg in Georgia:
According to the rule of the Court,, the process is

THE CAPITA!,, April 13,18G7.
THE SUPREME COUBT PETITIONED TO ENJOIN THE
PRESIDENT.
Nothing hos lately attracted public inquiry and
prosouce to the United States Supreme Court, so
much as the arguments Tanda yesterday be "ire
that tribunate in behalf of Mississippi's petition
for a writ of injunction against the President, as
tho administrator of the new military Reconstruc?
tion Law in that State. Friday being the regular
day for tho presentation of "motions," legal circles
and public-minded men, genoially, wcro in attend?
ance in great numbers to hoar tho argument .upon
tho issue in question. Tho bar and encircling
aisles presented an array of distinguished person?
ages not ordinarily brought together. In favor?
able position sat General OBANT, and, in indispu?
table exemplification of the saying tiiat the devil
always has an oye to courts, stood impeacher ASH
tst, or tho lower House, attitudinizing and frown?
ing niclo-dramatically in rear of the Bench itself.
1'lic Georgia injunction case, which comes up
after tho disposition of tts sister suit, was fully
represented by its counsel, ready and vigilant to
forestall the points of the Attorney Genoral, made
in the prosent instance and which", in c'l probabil?
ity, will be apphed to their own side of the ques?
tion., ab a later dato. . .
THE - 00UNSET,
For the case in point appeared for the petitioners
Governor Sharkey and Robt. J. Walker. Opposed
stood Stansberry, tho law adviser of tho Adminis?
tration. The latter, of courso, had tho opening of
ibo argument, and a rare and powerful plea it
was, Stansberry hos the very air and presence of
a great lawyer. Grey, grizzled, and augu !ai*. As
BtilTas a Sergeant-Major, and aa war-? -~'
?>."??itt?Timong lus craft., ho is calmly seif-ruhant.
With a face as ?irv and pointed as his logic, keen,
heavily arched eyes, and a certain conciseness of
trttoran.ee that is eminently a sonrco ot satisfac?
tion to their Honors: In all respects the' Attomey
Grenerol looks the craft of which he is ono, and
?anveys to the observer a strong sense of power
md professional eminence He hos not advanced
ten1, minutes into tho protest against this endeavor
to restrain his chief in the exercise of tho late Con- j
rressional enactment before it becomes evident
hat the advocate is entering upon no new ground
>f jurisprudence, so far as he is concerned, but is
idvancing with all the rapidity and fluency of pre
udgment and careful research. The whole theory
if tho case is instantly made to turn upon thai, to
is, novel consideration of the inviolate nature of )
hu Presidential office. Wo are told that "An
Lraw Johnson, of Tennessee," garbed in the ma
-istorii? robes, becomes, for the term of omeo, a
lerson and a name too sacred either to associate
is a party principal in a suit before the Courts,
ir as tho subject of a writ of attachment or quo
oarranio. The petitioners must learn that there
night exist exceptional cases, where the posses
lion of a right did not thereby insure a remedy.
Ind this was one of them.
The pedestal of the Presidency was raised above
ho positivo assertion of authority by tho. courts,
ind r> -, as the law adviser of the present head of !
ho Government, would so instruct his chief, and j
.oirnsol prompt refusal to comply with any writ of
ittachmcnt which this Court might direct against
ns poraon. True, there woe a tribunal,which could
take authoritative cognizance of the President's acts
ind demeanor in office, but that came in no closer
'elation to this Court, than by tho provision of the
Constitution which provides that tho Chief Jus
icti shall preside ovor the Senate during the time
t,tnay rosolve itself into a high Court of impeach- .
nenfc. After being stripped of his robes of office,
.nd deprived of his dignity as tho Chief Ruler of
he nation, by this latter judgment, Andrew JTohn
on, or any other occupant of the executive chair,
rho might happen. to bo impeached, could be
ironglit before tho Supremo or other Court, not.
o be dealt with as President, but for a sentence
is a citizen, who had betrayed his trust, and as a
nan who bad sinned against the State.
This portion of the Attorney-General's argument
ras inexpressibly fine, and evoked not a little dra?
nane sensation among the distinguished legists
ritliiu the bar, and the , straining and attentive
trowd, which encircled them. Tho Bench itself j
.ppesred unnsoilly animate even Justice Field's
.iterante naps and yawnB being fitful, and not en-,
holy accompanied by unconsciousness.

?llr. Stansberry occupied nb out an hour in open
ng the argument; Mr. Walker held the floor'
louble tho. time, and is yet to finish. It was dif
icnlt even for thoughtful-minded men within and !
rithout the bar to repress a smile at the inc vi- 1
able contrast that would force itself upon tho
lotice regarding the difference in the personnels
f. the two advocates. If Stansberry ; had thc
sngih and directness of. a Parrot gun, Walker
nay certainly be classed among those, .powerful
ittle engines, the "Cohorn mortar." His snots ar?
hrays directed upwards, and in tho fall aro sure
o burst unexpectedly right in tho enemy's midst. '
lois a' wond -rfaUy effective pioco of jullioial oi-d
an'ce; is tl c florid, gray-headed little - associate
ounsel of Go\ ernor Sharkey, and the long-ranged,
omcal-pointc:! shells of - thc Attorney-General
lust needs he aimed with more than ordinary pre
ision to harm him in a vital spot.
In the latter instance the. argument was moro
liscnrsive, because it hot only analyzed the open
ng plea, but reviewed nearly the whole field of.
irecedent and analysis embraced in the petition,
t vrau a capital commentary upon the. character' of
epablican institutions as compared with monar
hleal customs and immunities. "That the King
an do no wrong," was shown to have no shadow
if adaptation to the acts and discretion of our
'r?sident. A British crown, indeed, might set
side the mandate of England's court, if, indeed,
neb. a tribunate had the temerity to issue process
gainst the sovereign \ but that was a bench whose
cry name of the "Queen's Court" denominated its
ubordination to the executive
The wholo argument was replete with quotations
rom eminent jurists and precedents in point, pro
touaced, it is true, with the simplicity and. shrill
roble of a child, but with a fluency and exhaust-!
sss energy that indicated the fire and master in
Bllect within. ? If the Bench had been wakeful and
tan ti ve before it was absorbed' and doubly |
atchful now. Pencils were in requisition,.:and
heir Honors were pleased to make frequent memo- :
inda of the opinions .quoted and referred to, as
ho indefatigable advocate progressed. Charles
('Connor, ?' Ex-Attorney General Black,- Beverdy |
ohns??, Ex-Senator Cowan, Sharkey,.- Jenkins,
tansberry, all followed the line of argument with
vigilance' that was proof in itself how well
he way of advocacy had been chosen: .
Though not complete, the argument in question
3 already classed among the finest plea? that have '
icon made before the Court; and its resumption,
.pon the opening of. tho Court on Monday, will un
lunbtedly be attended with even more evidence
f public interest than at the outset. - VIDEX.

NEW YORK, April 13, 1867=-When gentlemen of
a speculative- turn of mind embark on tbe seas of
fortune (or misfortune), and indulge in (rambling
operations, as for example in the classic game of
faro, it is said by philosophers, that some congo a
tion is afforded even to the heaviest losers by a
knowledge of thc fact that the game has been a
fair and a square one, and that their money has been
gotten rid of in a legitimate and straight forward
manner. If such bo the case then should JJEON
ABD W. JKEOHE derive some satisfaction from the
report of the Committee appointed to examine into
tho affairs of the Pacific Mail Steamship company,
on whoso stock, bo came out minus a million of
dolLtrs, for the report says that there was nothing
rotten in Denmark, -or rather among the Danes
themselves who rulo tho kingdom. JEEOTUE .him?
self is one of the Danes ; he still bas faith in the
stock and will make a fortune on it yet, no doubt
long before the South is reconstructed.
Tho split in tho Democratic party here between,
the Miles O'BelUy faction and those of Tammany
Hall, &c.,'is something more than a tempest in a
teapot, as tho Herald denominates it, for it hap?
pons nt a most inauspicious, time. The result of
the Ute elections gave some*hope, but the party,
still so ?Argcly in. the minurity, cannot afford to be
weakened oven by such t??"ot tempests as this.
When the Democrats hei - quarrel among them?
selves, and correspondents from the South, aye,
oven from Charleston, tell us that Badicalism is
gaining ground even there, things do look most
gloomy, and naught is left to feed the ghost of a
I hopo on. The letter from Charleston, oubliaherl
in th" iTm.a.u.-'-- -??erteil me .Democratic stan?
dard, does not gain credence here among those'
who know him.
The World, which delight B in sensational articles
and lengthy descriptions of the horrible,'is ont to?
day with a very lively description of tho ; dead
house ; not only describing the Morgue-in. horrible
detail, but telling us ai' about th? price of dead
\ bodies hero and in Europe. In England a body
any body-is worth from ' three to five guineas,
whilst in New York a dead man costs one dollar
tho price for riding him from his last resting
place. .. -' -~- ;

ago, but, nevertheless, there aro finishing touches
to be added before it can' bo thrownfopento tho

Notwithstanding the immense amount of real
estate now on tho market here for sale, prices re-,

knowing ones say that a crash is coming sooner

scription. ' - - ' . - - .
There is great excitement among the sporting
mon of the rowing fraternity on the subject of the
proposed international regatta to take place on the
Seine,.and some of the .best oarsmen will be sent
from this city. I remember to have witnessed a
regatta in Charleston many years ago, in which
the prize was won by a Georgia boat, the "Becky
Sharp,''rowed by negroes, who were at the time
owned by Butler, a Georgia planter, who married
Fanny Kemble. It was evident then that the sons
of Ham could outrun'tho^hest bf. the New York
oarsmen. It would be aigbod /idea for Ute freed?
men of the South' to make up a purse among them
selves and send over to Pans such a boat as the
"Becky Sharp," with a crew of. picked hands.
Tho strikers are still op the^Btruto^wbrkmgm?n
in every, department aro., uotermined that if they
must earn bread by the sweat of their brows that
they will have- more bread-for loss sweat. As a
general rule.they now re?oive three, dollars and a
half per day, but as a particular rule' they all de?
mand four, wherefore they hold meetings night
.and day, andar? resolved to keep np a war to the
knifo against the bosses. Said, bosses know .not
whati'to.-dor; bntit is probable that tbe majority of

the wages of - their employees.
; Tho tiro romantio .(and too romantic) little girls
who^-drank a bottle of laudanum between them

that they had loved each other, had lived together
'and had died together, have carriod thothmg opt

mice are boarded and sold on commissi ou.: These
little animals are quite as pretty as squirrels,.and
much moro sagacious, and can be taught to per?

accomplish. They aro sold inutile ca gos, and can
twirl around in the miniature tread-mill m-a-style
that would astonish the most intellectual and high?
