TUE LAW OP IMPEACHMENT.
A writer in tho National Intelligencer, who signa
(himself "A Member of tho Baltimore Bar," has
published a most interesting article on "Arrest
and Suspension from Ofhco in caso of tho Im?
peachment of the President,'' from wbiob wo ex?
tract tho following lengthy quotation from Profes?
sor Thoo. W. Dwight, prepared as a lecture to tho
' student* of the Columbia Collego Law School, New
: York,' and published at longth iq tho American
Law Register, March, 1867 : r
"impeachments are bnt ? a method of trying,
offense*'. IE How., S. T. 68. "An impoachment
: is a courso of proceeding for treason, the esme au
in oase of grand Jury, which ?B anothor method,
ld td. 796. "They (impoachment and indictment)
differ in point of form. Id. 888. "Impoachment
is in the nature of an indictmont. There munt bo
a Bufticiont statement to bring tho accused to plead
and not to demur," por Finch, 16 Id. 354. Buch ?B
the languago of many authorities.
"Upon thia tonio it is important to make two in?
quiries : First. What wero tho subjects undor the
English law, which could be tried by impoach?
ment ; second, What casos undor our ny nt om eau
be tried in this manner. In examining tho first
question, it muai be oonoeded that tho judgments
' of the courts aro not absolutely uniform. This
I could hardly ho expected both bocauso there is no
? system of appeal, by moan? of which authoritative
freoedonts could bo established, and because tho
louse of Lords has boen at times unpolled by fac
! tion, or overborne by iinpoitunity, or overawed by
fear. The weight of authority is. therefore, to bb
fell .mod." So said tho groat Solden, in a speech
which he made as ono of the Committee of tho
' House in the impoachment of Ratcliffe. "It woro
1 bettor to examino this matter according to tho
> rules and foundations of this House than to rost
' upon scattered instances." (4 How. S. T. 47.)
! The decided weight of authority is, that no im*
1 peachmont will lie except tor a true crime, or in
' other words, for a broach of the common or statute
law, which, if committed within any county of
i England, would DO the subject of indictmont or in?
formation. This proposition is plainly inferred
fr.mi the doctrine already estabhshod, that im?
peachment is simply a method of trocedme. It
pr?supposes tho existence of the crime, for tho re?
dros? of which a trial ?B instituted. What would I
have boon the chook upon tho most arbitrary ac
tion of tho House of Lords, if it might decide tho
existence of a common law crime, without refer- I
enee to already settled rules ? This tribunal was I
only rarely called to act. During the reign of tho (
Tudor family its functions were entirely suspended. I
The rules of the common law courts wore in daily I
discussion and exercise. Tho fundamental dis
Unction botwoon felonies and'misdemeanors was
' fully recognized by.tho Howse of Lords in oases of
impeachment.
It fa asserted, without fear of Bucooasfdl contra
diction, both upon authority and phuciplo, not
withstanding a few isolated instances apparently
to the contrary, that no impeachment eau be hau I
.where the, King's Couch woul.l not ita ve leid that I
i a crime had boen committed, had the case been
; properly before, it. Tho re are, no doubt, extreme
casca favoring ah opposito view. Thus, the. I hilt o
of Richmond was impoached in ICH, among ofter
frivolous charges, on tho ground that he had pro- j
posed tm adjournment while u member of tho I
' House of Lords. Tho Commons were BO offended I
wit li him for attempting to check tho enactment of
?a bill which they had much at heart, that they ac?
companied tho impoachment with a petition to the I
?King to remove the Duke from all offices ot public I
Itrusc, in which petition tho Lords r . fused to join, j
i(4 How., S. T. 120.) This is but the excess of the
lower Hpqse, resolved that no obstado shall stand I
?in the way of its shortestjpath to its destined goal. I
jin early timos a quarrel botweon great noble-nob
'excitad tho interest of the public to such an extent
Ithat tho matter was brought up tor disposition in
Parliament. In such a feud botweon the Bishop
of Winchester and the Duke of Gloucester. A. D.
1451, there was a formal award of the acquittal of
tho party accused, and tho Lords "enjoined - thom.
: to bo tirio, friends for tho future, and by such in- |
dueomonts wrought upon them that they shook
hands, and parted witn all outward signs of lovo I
land agreement, which gave a mighty satisfaction
to all people.*' (1 How., S. T., 162.) Perhaps no I
ingenious plan has been devised to pettit tho
strifes Of embittered politician j. si net;, whil3 it I
{Boothes, the spirit jt ?eourea notoriety,
! A strong instance of the exercise of a broad I
power of impeachment is found in the last charlo
'of a series.made hythe Ooinmons against one of I
'tho worthless judges of Charles II. s reign. . (Oh. I
J. Seroggs.) l Its words are: "Whereat1 said W. ]
Sorogg? tjeing advanced, to be Chief Just co of th?
Court of King's Bonah, ought, by a soler, grave
and virtuous conversation to nave given a good I
example to tho King's liege people, and to domean I
himself answerable to the dignity, of so eminent a j
station; yet bo, said Sir WT Sorogfs, on the cori- ]
trary, by his fr?quent and notorious, excesses ttffd I
klebauchenes, and Ida profano--and atheistical dis- I
{courses, doth daily affront Almighty God, dis li on- I
or his'Majesty, give countenance and encourage- I
mont to all manner of vj?e 'and, wickedness, and I
bring the highest scandal on the public justice of
the kingdom."
; This was an artiole in an impeachment for high
treason! Tho articles were never tried, so that I
?they only serve to show how far the doctrine of
"constructivo treason" may be pushed by inge- I
talons committees. (}8, Lord? Journals, 737.) !
The danger of a loose construction' of tue ju?
dicial power of a legislative body , was most gtrlk- I
intfly shown when the House of Commons, during
the revolution, in consequence of the abolition of
tho House Ot Lords,.bad cont?rod within it both
tho power of impeachment and tho power of trial.
At the trial of Jamos i}ay 1er, an insano ranter, wno
would now be sent to a lunatic asylum, there was 1
a large minority .voting to put him to death for
blasphemy. Tho majority prevailed by deciding I
to whip him, set him in the' pillory, boro his I
fongpc through with a hot iron, and to confine I
lira in Bridewell at hard labor, - ?. -I
While the irregular oases ?pan thia subiootaro
few, the rule that a true crimo must have- boon I
Committed ls settled .beyond aisputo. This is.I
clearly shown,by the way in which the House of
Commons when flushed with power or chafed with !
indignation rebel against it. Over and over again I
they assert that the great statute of 26 Edw. HI,
denning treason, is not applicable 1 o trial by ira? I
f 'Thpplatlaibly, maintained tbWthe?stattito was
only for the courts of ordinary criminal jnstioe,
and that the statute itself applied a different rule
to trial by impeachment.' lint the law Was ?et- I
tied, after the most extended, and ?prolonged dis- I
eussions,' in'f?vor of the doctrine that the court of I
impeachment must - administer the same law as I
tho criminal court. (12 How.. H. T., 1213: 6 ld., I
$#frr rrna*tTO-Ban ?TOVlery was not Sued in j
A. H. 1669, as the offence charged wag thought not I
Sufficient to constitute treason, and tho ?ase was
directed to be heard in a court of law. (6 Hew.,
&. T.,917.) Intbooaao of Inigo Jonos, against
^homu a*?t^W I ?W fc^M, ofi-.^uihajg down a

?round.that it wag a matter, of3 private right.. I

i The stringency of th uso rulen often , led thc
Honsos, when under excitement, to pose bills of
attainder. They could tniot that an obnoxious
person was guilty, if they could not provo his of-,

ht one time Lord Chancellor, the case was put ex?
clusively on .such criminality a? m?he;subject of
an indictment. It was argued that ho had viola?
ted the statute of 6 Ed.. VL, Q, JUL concerning the
administration of justice, while ne rested bis d??
fon?a on ,the< fact that it ; was not criminal for a
fudgo to receive presents, either by common or
statute law. The decision of this ease against
Macclesfield is criticised by Lord Mahon and oth?
ers, but Ls dofended by G.unpboll, or> tho ground
that the statute of Ed. 6tU won violated j M How.
H.T. 8-23; 4 Camp.. Lord Chan. 686. Thia is ono
if the best-considered cas?s on the aubjoot, and
preceded the formation of our Constitution by
mly a row years. The last oaso of impeachment
I n England, that of Lord Molvillo, in 1806, for
malversation in office, it very instructive. Tho

The framers of the Now York Constitution of
A. D. 1777 hold this viow, for they oouplo to- .
rjethor in tho samo soutenoo impeachments and
indictments, nu though they wore only modes of
trial : "Id every tr i ?il on impeachment for crimes
or misdemeanors, tho party impeached or indicted
nb all bo allowed counsel as in civil actions."' Art.
31, Says Blackstone : "Au impeachment is a
?>rosecution of the already known and established
aw." 4 Com., 259. Tho judges were of the
opinion, in Lord Clarendon's oaso, that the evi?
dence on an impeachment must bo the same as
on.an indictment. G How.. B. T., 514. Mr. Web?
ster has well expounded tho whole nub loot in his
smooch in defence of Judge Prescott. Though he
made an argument as oounsel, yet his remarks on
tiiis point are carefully elaborated and characteriz?
ed l>v great precision of statement. Webster's
Works, vol. 5, pp. 518, 515.
' I have dwelt the longer on this point because
many soon, to think that a public officer can be
impeached for a moro act or indecorum. On tho
contrary, ho must havo committ al a true crime,
not against tho law of England, but against tho
law of tho United States. As impeachment is
nothing but a modo of trial, the Constitution only
adopts it as a modo of procedure, leaving the
cri mos to which it is to be applied to be settled by
the general rules ot criminal law.
A basis for a vory important concession has now .
been laid. It is this : As there are under tho laws
of tho United States no common-law crimes, but
only thoso whioh are contrary to somo positive
statutory rule, there oan bo no impeaohmont ex?
cept tor a violation ot a law of Congross, or for the
commission of a crimo named in the Constitution.
English precedents concerning impeachable crimes
ore consequently not applicable. There was for a
?long time a fluctuation of opinion on tho point
. whether the common law orimes did not exist un?
der the General Government. Justice St?ry lent
.tho great weight of his iuflueiioe to (he opinion in
favor of their existence. His discussion of the
subject of impeachment rests upon this view. Mr.
llawlo is of the same opinion. Both of those emi
?neut writers admit that if there are no common
law crimes for whioh indictment H oan be brought,
there aro nono for whioh impoaobmentB eau bo in?
stituted. Mr, Bawle is especially clear upon this
?point : "The dootrine that there is no law of crimes
except th \t founded in statutes, renders impeaoh?
mont a nullity in all cases except tho two express?
ly mentioned in the Constitution, treason and
bribery, until Congress shall pass laws doolariug
what shall constitute the other high orimes and
misdemeanors." (llawlo on tho Constitution, p.
1273, ed. 1829: Story on the Constitution, title "hu- j
poachment. )
? That there aro uo crimea against tho United
States which aro not statutory, is fully proved by a
?great number of oases collected by Air. Wharton
in his work on criminal btw,. Though, ho dissents
from this view, he acknowledges that i< is settled <
by the" decisions." '(?? 163^174). llie OeciBibUB of
the Sonate, as a court of impeachment, should not
bu regarded as adverso to thia view.
In the'throe oos?s already tried, of Piokering,
Chase, and Blount, only ono-Piokering-was con- ?I
?demoed. His case was hoard ex parle, as he did .
not appear, and was decided by a strict party voto. ,
?(2 Hildreth's History, 518.) As for as precedent is ,
.concerned, tho question in that court u still open, j
and Should bo' decided in accordance with pr in- i
eiplo.
Tho result is, that unless tho crime is specially
niniod in thc Constitution, impeachments, like
iirdi?tth?nts, oan only be instituted for orimes com?
mitted against tho statutory law of the United
States.
"Suspension from Office.--Gun tho accused bo
suspended from office during tho progress of tho
trial ? This subject is of vast importance in case
Df tho impeachment of a President, as an asser- 1
tion of such a power might load to the utmost t
confusion, and, perhaps, to civil war,
' "I strongly believe that there can be no suspen?
sion from offico, on two principle grounds: 1st,
from tbe practico in England; 2d, from tho true
construction of the language of the United States
Constitution.
"Thus far have beou considered offices held at
tho pleasure of the King. When the tenuro is X
fixod and permanont, the case ia still stronger. In
that Gase, tho Commons will not evou voto to ad?
dress the King for removal from office, though no
impeachment is intended. In other words, they
will not in such a case adopt a joint resolution
asking for tho removal of an unpopular and ob?
noxious minister, not charged with crime, though
choy'may ask for tho dismissal of such a minister
from ofiices hold at the King's pleasure. This'
distinction waa strongly marked in 'a discussion
concerning one of tho linkes of Buckingham. (6
How. S. Ti, 1054) . < - <
"The Commons refused to address the Kin?/ to
Semovo the Duke from offices in'which ho had a
efinite or permanent tenure, but askod that ho
?light bo rumo ved from offices held at tho King's
loauure. There was in this coso no impeach?
ment- hut. immediately afterwards, having re?
solved to impeach tue Earl of Arlington, th ay re?
fused an address for removal from any office.
There is good reason for the difference of action j
in tho two cases; where there is no charge of
crime, the King may bo asked to withdraw his fa?
vor; whore a crimo is alleged, the withdrawal of
{'latronago tacitly admits tho charge, and exposes
he Moused, to a loss of reputation, and moy di
minisli the reasonable chances for an acquittal.
"Suspension from Office under Ike United
Slates Constitution.-Where cn officer, like tho .
President, holds his office by a certain tenure,
the people, according to tho principles of law have
a right to his continuous services, of whioh they
cannot ho deprived belove 1 his conviction for an
impeachable offence, unless there is something in
tho language of tho Constitution which confers
tho power pf suspension by express words or ne?
cessary implication. If tho officer holds at tho
Jleasure of tho appointing power, he may, of
ourse, bo arbitrarily removed, by tho person oxor
qitjiritc the, power of appointment.
; "Thore'ig no exprese language in the Constitu?
tion conferring the power of Buspension. There is
no necessary implication, because it has beon
shown by English practice that the power to im?
peach does hot involve the power io suspend,
"lt is well, bosvover, to go further than this. I
?iaintaih that tho history ur the Constitution, tho1
o battis upon it, and ootemporary documents,
plainly show that the power of suspension was
studiously excluded.
"What would bo the effect of political impeach?
ments upon our system of government, it is dim- -
Cult to say. AU analogy loads to the conclusion
that they should be avoided until tho last extremi?
ty, and that tho trial should bo preceded by tho 1
?nrhistakable verdict of the people. Tb ore is pro
mnd wisdom in tho remark of that Hound, ?pul
?ThTlawye'f', Sergeant Maynard, that 'the trial arid
Condemnation of one man at common law will work ,
moro upon people than ten impeachments.' (12
Howell, M. T. 1212,). It is thc weakness of a politi?
cal tribunal that, 'whether Justly or not, it labors
under tho imputation of being moulded by faction ;
while it is the strength of a common-law court that
