TIIK LA XV OK IMPKA? HfilKXT.
A writer in tho National Intelligencer, who signs
himself "A Member of tho Baltimore Bar," hu?
pubhshod a moat interesting ai tide on "Arrotit
and Suspension from Office in case of tho Im?
peachment of thc President," from which wc ex?
tract the following lengthy quotation from Profes?
sor Theo. W. Dwight, prepared as a lecture to Hie
students of thc Columbia Colicgo Law School, New
York, and published at length in thc American
Law Register, Marou, 18G7 :
"impeachments aro but a method of trying
offences." 15 How., S. T. C8. "An impeachment
ia a course of proceeding for treason, the aame as
in case of grand jury, which is anothor method."
15 Id. 705. "Tlu-y (impeachment aud indiotmont)
diffor in point of form.*' Id. 886. "Impeachment
is in the natara of au indictment. lhere must bo
a sufficient statement to bring the accused to plead
and not to demur," per Finen, 16 Id. 354. Such is
the language of mmy authorities.
"Upon this topic it is important to maKO two in?
quirios : Pi- st. Wbat were tho subjects under tho
English law, which could bo tried by impeach?
ment ; second, what casts under our system can
ho tried iu this manner. lu examining flu- first
question, it must bo conceded that thc judgments
of the courts are not absolutely uniform/ This
could hardly be expected both because there is no
system of appeal, by moana of which authoritative
precedents could bo established, and because tho
House of Lords has been at times impelled by fac?
tion, or overborne by imp?ttumty, or overawed by
fear. 1 he weight of authority is, therefore, lo be
foll J wed." So said tho great* Beldon, in a speech
which he mado as ono of tho Committee of tho
House in tho impeachment of Katclifle. "It were
better to examine this matter according to the
tules and foundations of this House than to rest
upon scattered instances." (4 How. S. T. 47.)
The decided weight of authority is, that no im?
peachment will he except tor a truo crime, or in
other words, lor a breach of the common or statute
law, which, if committed within any county of
England, would bc the subjoct of indictment or in?
formation. This ptopositton is plainly inferrod
fr in tho doctrino already ostablished," that im
peachmont is simply a method of i roce Jure. It
presupposes tho existence of the crime, for the re
dross of which a trial is instituted. What would
have been tho check upon the most arbitrary ac
tiou of the li ouse of Lords, if it might decide thc
existence of a common law crimo, without refer
euee to already settled m?os V This tribunal was
only rarely called to act. Buring the reign of the
Tudor family its functions wore entirely suspended.
Tho rules of the common law courts were in daily
discussion and exercise. The fundamental dis?
tinction between felonies and misdemeanors was
fully recognized hy the Hotvse of Lords in cases of
i m peach me n I.
It ia assorted, without fear of successful coutra
diction, both upon authority and principio, not?
withstanding a lew isolated* instances apparently
to tho contrary, that no impeachment can bo had
where the King's Bonch woul l uot have 1 old tu at
a crime had been committed, had the case been
properly before it. There are, no doubt, extreme
cases favoring an opposito view. Thus, tho Duke
of Richmond was impeached in 1641, among ot .er
frivolous charges, on tho ground that ho had pro?
posed an adjournment while a member ox* tho
House of Lords. The (.'ominous were so offended
with him for attempting to check thc enactment of
a bill which they 1 ad much at heart, that they ac?
companied the impeachment with a petition to the
liing to remove the Duke from all offices ot public
trust, In which petition tho Lords refused to join.
(4 How., S. '?. 120.) This is but th? excess or tho
lower House, resolved that no obstacle shall staud
in the way of its shortest patti to its destined goal.
Ia early times a quarrel between great noblemen
excited tho interest of the public to such au extent
that tho matter waa brought up tor disposition in
Parliament. In such a feud between tho Bishop
of Winchester and tho Duko of t'lou,?cat*r, A, 1?.
1451, there was a formal award of the acquittal of
the party accused, and tito Lords "enjoined thom
to be lirui friends for the future, aud by such in?
ducements wrought upon them that they shook
hands, and parted witu all outward signs of love
and agreement, which gave a mighty satisfaction
to all people." (1 How., 8. T., 152.) Perhaps no
ingenious plan has boon devised to settle the
strifes of embittered politicians, since, while it
soothes tho aptrit it secures notoriety.
A strong instance of the exercise of a 1 road
power of impeachment is found in tho last charge
of a series made by tho Commons against ono of
the worthless judges of Charles II. s reign. (Ch.
J. Scrogga.) Ita words nre: "Whereas said W.
Scrogga bong advanced to bo Chief Justice of the
Court of King's Benoh, ought, hy a sober, grave
and virtuous oom er.-at ion to nave given a good
oxamplo to tho King's hege people, and to demean
himself answerable to the dignity of ao eminent a
atatiou; yet he, aaid Sir W. Soroggs, on tho con?
trary, by hid frequent and notorious excesses and
debaucheries, and his profano and nt-he'utieal dis?
courses, doth daily affront Almighty God, dishon?
or his Majesty, give Countenance and cucourago
ment to all manner of vice and wickedness, and
bring the highest scandal on tho public justice of
the kingdom."
This was au article in au impeachment ibr lpgh
treason ! Th? .artlulos were never triod, so that
tbey only servo tb show how far tho doctrine of
"constructive treason" may bc pushed by inge?
nious committees. (13 Lords Journals, 737. )
Thu danger of a lobao construction of tho ju?
dicial power of a legislative body was most strik?
ingly shown When tho House of Commons, during
the revolution, in cousequonoo of tho abolition of
the House ot IiOrds,.had.cont(red within it both
the power of impeachment and tho power of trial.
At tno trial of James Naylor, an insane rautor. who
would now be sent to a lunatic asvlum, there \\iia j
a large minority voting VM put Ipn? HI death ibr
blasphemy, The majority preyaUed by deciding
to ?hip him, ?bt him in the pillory, bore his
tougue tbroup h with a hot iron, and to confine
hun in Bridewell at hard labor.
While the irregular eases upon tn. subjeot are
fow, tho rule that a true crime must nave been
committed ia aettled beyond diapute. Thia is
dourly shown by the way iu which the House of
Commons when flushed with power or chafed with
iudignution rebel against it. Over and over arjaiu
they assert that tho groat statute of 25 Edw. ill,
defining treason, is not applicable i o trial by im?
peachment.
They plausibly maintained that thc statute was
only for the courts of ordin?r}* criminal malice,
and (hat the statute itself applied a ditlbrdnt rule
to trial by impeachment.' Lut the law w'iia set?
tled, aftor the most extended and prolonged dis?
cussions, in favor of the doctrine that tho court of
impeachment must administer tho same law as
the criminal court. (12 How., S. T., 1213; 8 ld.,
346.) Th os tho Earl of Oviery was not tried iu
A. D. 1669, as the offeuco charged was thought not
sufficient to constitute treason, and tho case was
directed to bc heard in a court of law. (6 How ,
t?. T., 917.) In the case of Inigo Jones, against
whom a nhargo was made* nf pulling down a
church, the commons reiiised to impeach, on the
ground that it was A watter of private ~:,ut
(4 Hatsoli's Precedents, ?32.)
The stringency of these rules often lcd the
Houses, when under excitement, to pass bills oj
attainder. They could tnict that au olmxioui
person was guilty, if they*could not prove his of?
fence. This course was resorted to in the well
known case of the Earl of Stratford. So, too, when
the Earl of Clarendon, in Charlos tho Second's
time, could uot be successfully impeached, thc
King intended to bring him before the Court of
tho Lord High Steward, wh'eh could be organized
BO as ti stxui'u conviction. 3 Campbell's Lord
Chancellors 243-4, (Loud. Ed., ISIS.)
The later and most authoritative decisions are
clear to this" effect. In tho impeachment of the
Earl of Macclesfield, who was a great lawyer, and
at oue time Lord Chancellor, Ute caso was put ex?
clusively on quell criminality 'as ls tho subject of
an indictment. It was argifed that he had viola?
ted the statute of C Ed. YL. C. 16. concerning tho
administration oLjustice, while ho rested his de
fencj on the fact that it wits not criminal for a
judgo to receive presents, either by common or
statute )aw. The decision of this case against
Macclesfield is criticised by Lord Mahon and oth?
ers, but ia defended, by Campbell, on the ground
that the statute of Ed. 6th was violated; 16 How.
S. T. 823; 4 Camp., Lord Chau. 586. This is ono
ol the best-considered cases on tho subject, and
preceded ttie formation of our Constitution by
only a few vears. The last case pf 'mp/Mhchnionl
iu England,, thr.t '.ll Lord Melville, in 1SII6, fol
malversation in office, m very instructivo. Thc
question was put to the judges whether the acts
with which ho was charged were unlawful, so
as to be the subject of information or indictment.
lt having been decided that they were not, Lord
Melville was acquitted; ali How. S." T. 1170. These
las' two derisions, made when there was an entire
absence of party feeling, and the court acted
throughout with judicial impartiality, deservedly
outweighs seores of install?es, if MIRV could bu
produced, which havo occurred ii. the heat and
porenzv of a revolution. The court in general re?
lies with close dependence, upon the opinion of the
commi u-law jndges on the law of cunio and cri?
minal ?videnco. often exacting their continuous
atten/ ince, to th** detriment ot other public btisi
nCIn*Lord Clarendon's case tho Lords inquired of
the judges if there was any treason. As they an?
swered MI tho negative, it was so decided. (4 Hat
sell's Precedents, 153-4*. Seo also opinion tn th.
case of the Earl of Danby, Id, 180.) In Warren
number were permitted to proceed on their er ut
(Id.) Their opinion waa asked on tho merits ol
the case. The- text writers and hading Jumts are
of thc same opinion. Says ttooddesoii: "lue trial
differs not in essentials from criminal prosecutions
heidie inferior courts. The same rules of evidence,
the aame legal notious of crimes and punishments,
prevail. For impeachments aro not. framed to
alter thc law, but to cam* it ii to more effectual ex?
ecution where it might i>e oostructod by tho lu
ilueiice or too powerful delinquents, or not casi i>
discerned in the courts of ordinary jurisdiction,
by reasou of the peculiar quality of the alleged
crimes. The judgment thereof is to bo such as is
wurrautod by legal priucij les or precedents.*' Lec?
tures, vol. 2,' p. tm. So ( lushing in his "Law and
Practice or Legislative Assemblies," says: ''The
proceedings are condu ted substantially as they
arc upon common judi'rai trials an to th? admis?
sion or i ejection or testimony, the examination
and cross-cxaminati n of witnesses, and tho legal
doctrines as to cruues and misdemeanors," ?20119.
Lord Chancellor Cowper in an impeachment casi
not long before .ur Revolution (A. D. 17i">). said:
"Though one o? your Lordships suppose.-' this im?
peachment to ')G out of th'; ordinary and common
course of lav and justice, it is yet as much a
course of proceeding according to the common
law as any o-.lier whatever. If you bad been in?
dicted, the indi tment must have been removed
and brought before tho Houao of Lords, Parlia
mont sitting. lu that case, it ia true, yon hid
been accuso?! by the grand jury of one county; in
tho present tho whola body of tho Commons of
Groat Britain, by their representatives, arc your
accn' ors." l Hatsoli, 205.
The framers Of tho New York Constitution of
A. I). 1777 held this view, for they couple to?
gether in the same sentence impeachments and
indictments, as though they were only modes of
trial : "In every trial on impeachment lor crimes
or misdemeanors, the party impeached or indicted
shall bc atlowcil counsel as in civil actions." Art.
31. Says Blackstone : "An impeachment ia a
prosecution of thc already known and established
law." 1 Com., 259. Tho judges were of tho
opinion, in Lord Clarendon's caso, that tho ovi
doncc on an impeachment must bo the same as
on an indictment. G How., S. T., 514. Mr. Wob
ster has well expounded tho whole subject in his
speech in defence of Judge Prescott. Though he
made an argument as counsel, yet his remarks on
this point are carefully elaborated and characteriz?
ed by (treat precision of statement. Webster's
Works, vol. 5. pp. 513, 515.
I have dwelt tho longeron this point because
litany seem to think that a public officer can be
impeached for a mere act of indecorum. On the
contrary, he must have committed a true crime,
not against tho law of England, bat against tho
law of tho United States. As impeachment is
nothing hut a mode of trial, the Constitution only
adopts it at- a modo of procedure, leaving the
crimes to which it is to bo applied to bo settled by
tho general rules of criminal law.
A basis for a very important concession has now
been laid. It is ibis : As there arc under the laws
of the United States no common-law crimes, but
only those which aro contrary to some positive
statutory rulo, there can be i/o impeachment ex?
cept for a violation of a law of Congress, or for tho
commission of a crime named in tho Constitution.
English precedents concerning impeachable crimes
are consequently not applicable. There was for a
long time a iliictuation of opinion on tho point
whether tho common law crimes did not exist un?
der tho General Government, Justice Story lent
the great weight ot Iiis iniluouco to the opinion in
favor of their existence. His discussion of the
subject of impeachment rests upon this view. Mr.
Ilawlc is of the same opinion. Both of thoso emi?
li nt writers admit that if there aro no common
law crimes for which indictments can bo brought,
thero are uoue for which impeachments can bo in?
stituted. Mr. Ka wie is especially clear upon thia
point : "Thc doctrine that there is no law of crlmcB
except th it founded in statutes, renders impeach?
ment a nullity in all cuses except the two express?
ly mentioned in the Constitution, treason and
bribery, until Congress shall pass laws declaring
wliut shall constitute thu other high crimes and
misdemeanors.'1 ( Uawlo on tho Constitution, p,
273, cd. 1829; Story on tho Constitution, title "Im?
peachment.1
That thcro aro no crimes against tho United
States which are not statutory, is fully proved by a
great number of ca. os collected by Mr. Wharton
in his work on criminal law. Though he dissents
from this view, he acknowledges that it is settlod
by the decisions. (?? 103-174 ). The decisions of
the Senate, as a court of impeachment, should not
bo regarded as adverse to this view.
In tho three cases already tried, of Pickering,
Chase, and Blount, only one - Pickering-was con?
demned. His case was heard ex parle, aa ho did
not appear, and was decided by a atrict party vote.
(2 Hildreth's History, 518.) As far as precedent ia
concerned, the question in that court is still open,
and should be decided in accordance with prin?
cipio.
The result is. (hat unless the crime is specially
n lined in tho Constitution, impeachments, like
indictments, san only bc instituted for crimes com?
mitted against tho 'statutory law of the United
States.
''Suspension from Office.-Can the accused be
suspended from office during tho progress, of tho
trial ? This subject is of vast importance in caso
of tho impeechiqent of a President, as an asser?
tion, nf Bush ? power might lead to the utmost
confusion, mid, perhaps, to civil war.
"1 strongly believe that thero can bo no suspen?
sion from office, on two principio grouuds: 1st,
from tho practico ia England; 2d, from the true
construction of the language of thc United States
Constitution.
"Thus far have boen considered offices held at
tho pleasure of the King. When the teuuro ia
fixed and permanent, the case ia still strongor. In
that caao, tho Commons will not even vote to ad?
dress tlie King for removal from office, though no
impeachment ia intended. Li other words, they
will not in such a caso adopt a joint r?solution
asking lor the removal of an unpopular and ob?
noxious minister, not charged with crime, though
they may ask for the dismissal of such a minister
from ?nices hold at tho King's pleasure. Thia
distinction was strongly marked in a discussion
concerning one of the Dukes of Buckingham, (f>
How. S. T., 1054.)
"The Commons refused to address tho King to
remove tho Duko from offices in which he had a
dciinito or permanent tenure, but asked that ho
might be removed from offices held at tho King's
pleasure. Thero was in this case no impeach?
ment; but. immediately afterwards, having re?
solved to impeach tue Earl of Alington, tiny re?
fuse') an addrcsu Eoe removal from any office.
Them is good reason for the ditlerohco of action
iii the two case's; where there is no charge of
crine, tho King may bo asked to withdraw his fa?
vor; whore a crime is alleged, thc withdrawal of
patronage tacitly admits the charge, and exposes
liie accused to" a loss of r?putation, and mav di
mullah tho reasonable chance for an acquittai.
'.Sus?trn$lon from Office under thc Untied
vales Constitution. -Where en officer, like the
President, holds his office hy a certain tenure,
the people, according to the p^qoiplos tif law have
a right to bia contuvimos services, of which they
cauunt ho deprived before his conviction for ail
impeachable offence, unless there is something in
tho language of tho Constitution which confers
tho power of suspension by express words or ne?
cessary implication. If the ojQoer bolds at the
pleasure of the appointing power, ho may, of
Ooaree, be arbitrarily removed hy tho person exer?
cising the power of appointment.
"There is uo express language in the Constitu?
tion conferring the power of suspension, There is
no necessary implication, heaauBO it has been
shown by English practice tlint tho power to ira?

A Secret Letter from .Napoleon.

Napoleon III., which has never beicre been pub?

whUJi tho French Emperor entertained, or at least
which he wished the public to believe bo enter?
tained, a year ago:
"AUGUST 12, lbw.
"Mu Dear Monsieur de Lavait?le:
"1 call your serions attention to tho following
facts. Itt the miikst of tho conversation which
took place between Benedetta and M. de Bismarck,
fti. Drouyu de Lhuys broached the. idea to send to
Berlin a draft of a convention oi| thu subject of the
compensations to which we may be entitled.
"Thia convention, in my opinion, ought to have
boon kept secret; hut it lias been noised abroad,
and tho newspapers gn to the length ol'saying
that the provinces of the Rhino have hoon refused
to us.
"lt results from my conversation with Bone
dotti, that we should have all Gcruymy against us
for a very Muall advantage.
"It is important not to let public opinion go as?
tray on this point, (let these rumors contradict?
ed very energetically in tho newspapers. 1 have
written in this .sense to kl. Drouyu do Lhuys. He
semi- mo to-day ibo Uorrespoiukince Havan,
which I enclose. Tho true interest of Franco is
not tn obtain an iustgmtieant aggrandizement ol
territory, tmt to aid Germany to constitute her?
self m the mannet the most favorable to our inter?
ests ami to those ol Eurone.
"Receive tho assurance nf my sincere friend?

The Journal or Commerce, m speaking of the
South, says: "Why do wc ha\ i so ?itt?o startling
new.; from thc South i:ow-a-Jay?? How does it
happen thai ll icm are no Southern riots worth
telegraphing about tlicsc times '.' Why is it, tu
thc present moment, that thu South .-applies less
of tho daily pabulum or murder and other crimes
than any oilier part oj the country r There must
be spme gopd reason ^r this groat change from
tho very bad condition of things in the same re?
gion some mouths ago. 'This reason, as wo un?
derstand it, is found m the improved system af
military government which rests upon the South?
ern people. Not only have tho objectionable I>is
triet Commanders ocen roiuovetl, and men of
juster ami morn amiable dispositions (but not
reader -.aloin) b ion substituted for them, but the
whole H ty lo of governing the South has been toned
down ami ma lo to resemble civil administration
rather than martial law. The Soothern peoplo,
white and' black, appreciate thin relaxation from
the grimness or tho harsh military system, and
they (ibo.*, their gratitude b\' their better beha?
vior, lu tiio South, as in the North aud every?
where else, is demonstrated over again (he vener?
able truth that that government is the best which
governs tho least. Under good-natured rulers,

when they aro lorded over by commanders who are
