CHIEF JUSTICE CHASE DISAGREES WITH THE
SENATE-HE GIVES HIS ADVICE-MISTAKES
M O E E IMPEACHMENT ARTICLES PEXDTNO
STANTON TO EMPLOY. CODN" \L.
WASHINGTON, March 4.-Chief Justice Chase
writes to the Senate, expressing in mild, and
somewhat indirect terms, his non-concurrenco
with some preliminary procecdinRs in tho mat?
ter of impeachment. When the Senate sits
for the trial, it sits unquestionably as a court.
Tho S.mate must necessarily receive notice of
the inknt to impeach from the House, but the
organization of the Senato into a court should
precede tho actual announcement of impeach?
ment on tho part of thc House, and the articles
of impeachment should only be presented to
tho Court of Impeachment. No summons or
other process should issue except from tho
organized court, and the rules for the govern?
ment of the proceedings of tho court should
be formed only by the court itself. Chief Jus?
tice Chase finds himself unable to come to any
other conclusion than the above, but adds :
"I am-in formed that the Sonate has proceeded
upon other views, and it is not my purpose to
contest what its superior wisdom may have
directed."
The Chronicle supports the Mississippi levee
agent's applicatiou for $30,500 for a basin ap?
propriation.*
There are two more impeachment articles
pending.
The bill authorizing the Secretary of War to
employ counsel to defend reconstruction1, has
become a law by the lapse of ten days.
Mr. Wade presided to-day during the entire
proceedings. This probably settles the ques?
tion whether ho will vote on the final issue. '
Farnsworth's telegraph bill contains fifteen
sections, mostly devoted to the protoc ?ion of
the public against fraud and injustice from tel?
egraph companies' agents and operators. The
. punishment is severe.
The President has recognized Jean Baptiste
Lawson as Consul of France a' Richmond;
Adolphus Bodor as Consul of Austria at New
Orleans; Alexis Robert as Consul of the Tonti- .
fical States at New Orleans; Carlos Heroiseius
Vice-Consul of the Argentine Republic at Sa- c
vannah and the neighboring towns.
The Supreme Court is still engaged in the '
McArdle case. Trumbull spoke to-day, to bo ?
followed by Dudley Field. The Court allows
twelve boura to each side.

TION.
WASHINGTON, Maich 4.-IN THE HOUSE, im- s
mediately after the meeting, Jenks proceeded 1
to urge his article declaring that impeachment 1
would be incomplete without charging crimi- ?
nal intent. The previous question failed of a 1
second, and the article was lost. The House
then went into a Committee of the Whole, to :
proceed in a body with the managers to ?ho 1
Senate, to present the impeachment articles.
The Dencocrafcic members remained in their
seats while tho others formed a procession and
paraded to tho Senate chamber. After their
return tho TonneBsec contested election case
was taken up, but postponed.
Grant was directed lo report the number of
votes cast for and against thc constitution.
The Military Committee have reported a bill

munication from C:iicf Justice Chase, which
?was referred to a special committee.

T^o sergeant-at-arms thou announced ?he
impeachment managers The managers ap?
proached the bar, and tho accompanying mem?
bers randed themselves around the back seats.
Colfax was seated by Wade when Bingham read
the articles. Butler's, which quotes largoly
from tho President's most stinging speoches,
caused some sensation. The chair said the
Senate would take action when the managers
retired.
The resolution admitting persons lo the gal?
leries by tickefs was postponed.
A committee of three Senators were appoint?
ed to notify tba Chief Justice and conduct him
to the vice-President's seit to-morrow, at 1
o'clock. Several votes indicated on the part of
the Senate to adhere to the rules, notwith?
standing Chase's letter. The Senate then ad?
journed. _._

THE CONVENTION. I
FOBTT-SECOND DA?.
For the Jast two days tho floor of the con
ention hacheen a field of battle. "Nobody's
turt," but on both sides the thunder of artil
eny and small arms hos baen tremendous,
lem bera havo pummelled each other with olc
?utionary war-clubs, used tomahawk and
icalping knifo with most remorseless vigor,
md employod every means of demolition
rom a pop-gun to a boomerang which their
mental armory' could supply. Tho primary
tubject of discussion was education; first,
vhetlier it should be made compulsory; se?
condly, whether, in default of tho payment of
x poll-lax of one dollar, voters should bo de?
prived by the legislature of the right of suf?
frage.
It ?B a noliccablo fact that not uno of thc
white natives of tho Stalo took part in tho dis?
cussion pro or con; that some woie convenient?
ly absent when tho voting took place, and that
a largo majority of tho convention refused to
go upou the record by repressing a c ill for tho
yeas and nays. It was farther observable that
every Southern while mau, who is a candidate
for office, took shelter -under the wing of tho
strongest party, -and voted with a lustiness
which showed a desiio to be appreciated. It
was likewise demonstrated that in all ques?
tions which concem tho colored raco, the col?
ored leadors upon the floor havo only to make
a sigu, and opposition dwindles into insignifi?
cance; candidates for office suddenly become
as dumb as Egyptian mummies, and begin to
coffnt votes on their fingors, while thc mon
upon whom in fheir hearts they look as autag
ouists gaily walk tho track. Tho system ol'
management is perfectly beautiful; and to ono
fond of studying human nature, and political
nature, the floor of thc convention is tho best
of schools.
In fact, pubiic affairs in the body would wear
a different phase, if the weal of the people was
not made subservient to the desire for personal
aggrandizement. This district and that must
bc conciliated; this delegate or the other is a
member of tho nominating convention, and it
won't do to vote against his proposition, al?
though it may be wrong, because, possibly, he
might throw his influence against you; and so,
a combination ot circumstances aro brought
out in the pell-mell nish for place, which unfit
nine-tenths of the membei s of the convention,
black and white, for an impartial discharge of
public duty.
The proceedings yesterday may bo briefly'
summed up.
J. J. Wright offered a resolution that it be
refoned to a special committee of five to report?
an ordinance appropriating the Citadel and the
grounds connected therewith, in the City of
Charleston, to educational purposes; saidbuild
irgs and grounds to be devoted to the estab?
lishment of a college, which, in connection
with grammar and primary schools, shall be
managed by a Board of Trustees, and their
successors, who shall be choson by the General
Assembly, and shall be subject to visitation by
the Supering ndent of the Board of Public In?
struction of the State.
The Committee on Petitions, to whom was
referred the petition presented by F. L. Car
doza requesting Congress to bestow the lands
sold tor taxes and now in the handB of the
United States Tax Commissioners, on the
coast, upon thc indigent citizens of the State,
made a favorable report.
The consideration of section 4 of the educa?
tional article was resumed, and. after an earn?
est speech by P. L. Cardoza, the chairman of
the committee, it was, on his motion, amended
by tho addition of the proviso, and passed tc
its third reading. It roads as follows:
SEC. 4. lt shall bo tho duty ol the Genera:
Assembly to provide for tho compulsory attend?
ance, at either public or private schools, of al
children between the ages of aix and sixteen
years, not physically or mentallv disabled, for
? term equivalent totwentv-four mcnths; Pro?
vided, That no law to that effect shall be
Sassed until a system ot public schools h?>.s
cen thoroughly and completely organized,
and facilities afforded to tb.6 inhabitants of the
State for the free education of their children.
Section five provides that the legislature shall
levy an annual tax on all the taxable property in
the State for the support of public schools, and
a tax of ono dollar on all taxablo polls in Ihe
State, which shall also be applied to education?
al purposes.
Various ameudmeuts were offereL
Mr. N. G. Parker insisted that tho property
of the State ought to pay tho taxes of the
State, and not that class of people who have
not a cent ol property or aero of ground.
H. E. Hayne did not believe there was a man
in South C.irolina so poor as not to be abie to
pay one dollar for the education of his chil?
dren.
ft. B. Elliott was opposed to tho section be?
cause it did not prevent the legislature from
passing an act that would deprive tho voter, in
case of tho non-payment of his poll tax, of thc
right of suffrage. In other States this was a
penalty. It ought not to bo so in South Caro?
lina. He oflered tho following amendment:
"Provided that no porson Bhall bo deprived ot
the right of suffrage for non-payment of snid
tax."
A lonp: and animated debate followed.
A. J. Ransier said ho differed from the dele?
gate from Barnwell (N. G. Parker), inasmuch
as he behoved it was but just that nil the peo?
ple of the State should boar, as far as possible,
the burden of expenso. Tbero was no other
way in which this could be dono save by levy?
ing a poll tax. Yet ho was unwilling to de?
prive any individual who might find it impos?
sible to pay that tax of the privilege of voting.
B. F. WhittemoreTvas ono of the champions
of the opposition. He contended that with
such a provision to the clause, no other than
a mere moral inducement was held out to tho
people of tho State to pay their poll tax. No
penalty existing which appealed to pride, no
largo amount or iticomo could possibly bo ex?
pected in aid of the educational system con?
templated. There was not a man io the State
who could nbt afford to pay ono dollar a year
for such a purpose, and if" ho did not appreci?
ate tho importance of the use lo which it would
be applied, he deserved to have tho right of
franchise taken from him.
We have not room for the publication of oven
in abstract of the valions speeches which fol?
lowed. The chief roasous urged for thc adop?
tion of the. proviso were that the legislature
night possibly be composed of men too glad
a have an opportunity to deprive the colored
roter of his right of'suffrage, and eventually
night lead to the ruin of tho party; also, that
he colored mon ot (ho State wero too poor to
iay the poll tax, and ought' not to suffer in
?onsequence of their poverty.
The question was finally put to a vote; tho
?eas ana nays were ordered by one-fifth, but
mmediately afterwards postponed by the ma
ority, and then being taken viva voce, was de?
cided in the affirmative.
Subsequently tho section was reconsidered,
urther debate ensued, and the subject was
till pending ot the hour of adjournment.
R. C. DoLargo, from tho Committee on Elec
ions and Franchise, reported the article on
hat subject, which we shall publish when thc
ame is considered.
H ULK MEETING IN WALTERBORO'.
"o the Editors of the News:
At a full meeting of the citizens of Waltcr
oro', held in tho Courthouso on tho afternoon
f Wednesday, tho 27th instant, tho Hon. Cor?
os Tracy was requested to- take tho chair, and
;obert Campboll, Esq., was appointed Secre- 1
ny.
On taking tho chair, tho presiding officer
tated that, twelve months ago harmony und 1
rder existed in this town among , thc white,
ie colored, and tho black population, without i
ny apparent desire for encroachment by any i
nc upon tho rights of persons and of proper- '
.. That, subsequently, a garrison of United ,
tates colored troops had been sont to this j
ace, ?nd that dh order very shortly became \
fa. in tim community; that these disorders j
ont'by these troops upon thc righTbyilie
[lite congregations to the exclusive use of
ose portions of their churches which they had ,
t apart for their own uso; timi subsequently i
son had been attempted; persons in civil j
'e, both white and black, had been assaulted ?r
intonly in the daytime aud in tho night-time; .
id these disorders had culminated thc night j
.evious, in tho striking down in his store, by (
!r8ons in the garb of these soldiers, of ouo ot c
e most harmless and inoffensive of human 1
lings, Mr. B. F. Bradford, who now lies bc- j
?nd tho hope of recovery. That all these
fences again t law and order were traceable, <
? was credibly informed, by ovidonco moro or j
BB direct, to tho colored troops; that several j
rcumstanees had occurred not long since i
hieb had. in hi? judgment, thc effect or in- 1
easing thc aggressive temper of these vio-,
tors of oider; ami these wore believed lo j
roeecit, unfortunately, from tho conduct
t a few peraons residents ol thia place;
lat somctiino last summer an in
airy, it wa3 understood, had been made Ly
ie military authorities us to there being suita
le parsons, white or colored, in this comnmni
! to receivo an appointment ns councilmen, ?
nd that the presiding officer had been in
mned'on altogether reliable authority that
io councilmen appointed had been leconi
?cnded by residents here; thal those c luncil
?en, so recommended, as was well known, were
foreigner, who can, with difficulty, read,
Tile and speak tho English language; a Nortb
rncr recently como amongst us, not known to
wu any visiblo property; a colored man who is
. notorious street drunkard; another colored
uan who is un object of charity, and a third
:olored person totally wit bout inform ilion to
it him tor tho position. Thal il was mani?
fest that thc appointing military authorities
rad been imposed on by the recommendations 11
}f tho fitness of these, persons, and that tho
marshal of this council-a negro-had recen t
y enforced a law which operated against thc
ivbito and not against tho colored population;
that these proceedings were such gross viola?
tions of right, that the effect was to persuade
tho ignorant that liberty was license, and tho
passions of the strong, law; thai in addition
to this, when an effort liad been niado some?
time sinco for thc removal of the troops sta?
tioned at this place, a petition lor their reten?
tion, it had recently been ascertained, had pro?
ceeded, it was believed, from tho same persons
who had been instrumental in recommending
a council such as the above, and perhaps from
others, which had resulted in these troops
being returned; and that an indignant, commu?
nity had now assembled to express its sense in
relation to the imposition upon tho military in
respect to tho appoiulmeut of tho council, and
us to the causes of our public disorder.
At tho close of these remarks, by thc Chair,
F. G. Bchio, Esq., arose and asked leuvo to
offer a preamble and resolutions. A debate on
these sprung np, in which many gentlemen
present participated, and from which it ap?
peared hy the statement of Mr. Burbidge, made
in the meeting, that ho kept the books ot the
council and advised it generally. After a full
discussion, thc following wero adopted:
Whereas, It is understood that the Unite 1
States colored tioops ul this pince were sonic
time since about to bc removed; And whet eas,
It is now certainly ascertained that a petition
was forwarded to the Commanding General, by
certain persons in our midst, for the retention
of these troops, which, it is believed, has
caused their stay:
Resolved, That in the sense of this meeting,
the riotous and disorderly conduct of the said
troops, th ir maltreatment of our inhabitants,
both white and colored, their disturbance of
our public worship, and the terror with which
thev inspire our families by their midnight ot-,
gies, is due to thc course pursued by the sign?
ers of this petitiou.
Resolved, That the blood of Mr. Bradford, a
remarkably peaceful and inofibusivo citizen,
who wo B last night, on his own premises, bru?
tally stricken down, bleeding and dying, by
men in the garb of these troops, is the result
of this petition.
Resolved, That in the opinion of this meei.
ing, tho Commanding General was grossly im
Sosed on as to the fitness of certain persons,
otb white and colored, recently appointed by
him au councilmen of this place; arid that the
advisors of the military, believed by this meet?
ing to have been J. J. Bein, John W. Burbidge
and o Ibers, unfortunately unknown, er-ted in
this matter for the purpose of gratifying pri
vato malignity, and nave justly forfeited the re?
spect ot all who bohevo in the right.
Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions
bo forwarded to tho Commanding General and
that they be published ra the Charleston pa?
pers.

Tho Washington correspondent of the Balti?

The condition andtcnvfier of the public mind
here to-day Ima been in strong contrast with
tho extraordinary excitemeut and tone of feel?
ing ono week ago. All ia quiet to-night, though
thcro is much discussion of the impeachment
articles, the probable remit of a-trial in the
Senat >, the effect of a verdict of jru?ty in cai?
tho .Senate should convict*- &c. Dispassionate
critics express surprise at Vie weakness ot the
impeachment articles and .the paucity of facts
set forth therein to constitute a crime.or mis?
demeanor, and the absence of proof of xain?
nal intent on tho part of the President. In
this view some Republicans coinoide, and to
meet tbeso objections Mr. Jenckes, of Rhodo
Island, has given notice of his purpose of urg?
ing an additional article to-morrow. Generally,
however, tho Republicans appear to consider
the articles as reported by the committee suf?
ficient to sustain the impeachment and secure
a verdict of guilty upon trial in the Senate,
whilst the Democrats and Conservatives re?
gard the articles as an utter failure to make a
caso for the solemn consideration of a high
court of impeachment, and they believe, con?
fidently, that Mr. Johnson will be acquitted.
Among tho Radicals Jhere is some interest
manifested in working'ont tho effect of the re?
moval of Mr. Johnson and the installation of
Mr. Wade inlo the White House. Upon tho
question as to thc impression such a result
will produce among the voters tor President
next Novembor; there is conflict of opinion;
but tho most difficult queries are involved in
the probable statua of Ohio in the United
States Senato if Mr. Wade shall succeed Mr.
Johnson in tho executive chair. In this dis?
cussion among the Radicals the following ques?
tions ore put :
Firsl. la Mr. Johnson tho President, or is ho'
Yicc-Prosident acting as President, or does not
thc constitution make him absolutely Presi?
dent': The committee on the artiolea of im?
peachment appear to have decided this query
for themselves, and hold that Mr. Johnson is
President, whethor ex-o?cio', or how, does not
appear, but that ho is President-oleo Chief
Justice ChaBe'cannot preside in tho tiiol.

Mr. Wade is Vico-Pr&idcnt, or only President

Ito is Sonator from Ohio; and does his eleva?
tion to tho Presidency of the Unitod States, or
leting as such, vacate his offico of Senator ? li

state to bo notified, and when ? Ii such vacan?
cy and notification occur whilst tho Ohio Le

if tho problems and possibilities that are to

,D give us pause."
The President has not yet selectod his

tary. The caucus selectod tho following scvon
managers to conduct the impeachment trial
before tho Senate on the part of the House:
Stevens, of Pennsylvania; Butler, ot Massa?
chusetts Bingham, ol' Ohio; Boutwell, of
Massachusetts; Wilson, of Iowa: Williams, of
Pennsylvania, ami Logan, ot Dhnois. There
were about seventy members present.
So anxious are t he impeachors of tho Sonate
lo keep piice with their brethren of the House
that yesterday thc rules roportod by tho special
committee were taken up bet. rc even tho
morning hour business was concluded, and
Mr. Howard, in his great anxiety, kept urging
on thc clerk iii thc reading. Tho Senato sat
six hours yesterday, and in that time passed
upon twelve of thc rides, though as th JV were
considered in Committee ot the Whole, this
cannot bc regarded as tho final action on them.
Tho only material alteration made, was in tho
sixth rale, wher i the paragraph p acing at the
disposal of the presiding officer the army and
uaw was struck out, and a clause w*s inserted
providing for thc employment ot thc marshal
of the District of Columbia to carry out the
Ohlers of the court. A number ot the Radical
Senators acknowledged that the Senate had
no power to pass the rule as reported by the
.?ommittco. . ."
The consideration of these rules will again be
proceeded with to-morrow. I'ho twentieth and
twenty-first rules will give rise to an extended
debat?', and the Conservatives will insist on a
modification of thom. Their cflect will he, If
adooled, lo reduce thc trial to the shortest
possible time, ?md hy limiting the arguments
lo one hour, ut tori v preclude any fair or impar?
tial hearing of tho eise. It is believed, howev?
er, that 1 he partisan feeling now raging against
tho President will be sufficiently strong to se?
cure thc adoption of the rules.
Alabama representatives, claiming election
under tho new constitution, are here urgiDg
their claims to seats, maintaining that thc con?
stitution waa defeated by fraud. The recon
struction^ committee have the. subject undei
considera'tion, but several of its members be
Lng also on the impeachment committee, thc
report upon the Alabama claimants is not yel
.ready.
Letters reoeived in thia city to-?ay from Ala?
bama ieavo no doubt that the constitution ie
defeated, despito tho strenuous oxertion ol
General Meade and others.
In view of the raoid approach of the hom
when tho President will be placed upon his trial
before the Sonate, the Conservative members
of Congress are much concerned about the ac?
tion of tbe Maryland L?gislature in reference
to tho election of a Senator of tho United
States. It is conceded on all hands that the
example of Kentucky should be emulated, and
that in thia crisis ot national affairs the legis?
lature of- Maryland should, without delay elect
some one as Senator whose right to a seat can?
not be questioned. While it is conceded that
the exclusion of Mr. Thomas from his Seat was
a great outrage upon the people of Maryland,
it is also very justly held that this is no lime to
quibble about men.
Mr. "McG'recry, the now Senator from Ken?
tucky, had a proper appreciation of his duty in
new of the momentous quostion that is short?
ly to como before,the Senate, for it was his ex?
pressed determination, in the event of, any
quostion being raised that would have opera?
ted unfavorably to his immediately taking his
seat, to have telegraphed to .the Governor of
his State resigning his commission and urging
upon the legislature to elect at once some one
against whom no objection could be urged.
Ine Legislatura of Maryland can have but
little idea of the anxiety that is felt here upon
t his subject. It should be borne in mind that
Upon a question ot the conviction of the Presi?
dent every Conservative vote counts two, and
every voto lost is a groat gaiu to those who
would hurl Mr. Johnson from power.
THE FEELING TN WASHINGTON-DOUBTS AS TO
THE ACTION; OF THE SENATE.
A. Washington dispatch to the New York
Herold says :
There seoms to be a growing feeling that the
Senate will nut convict the President bf the
"high crimes and misdemeanors'' of which be
is impeached by the House, precisely because
it is asserted thero that that body will not be
of the o lin'on that tho offences charged are
"high crimes and misdemeanors." Among the
most radical and even rabid of the well-inform?
ed Republicans that have, visited the capital
Bince the impending impeachment proceedings
there is a strong expression against impeach?
ment for the offences presented, on the ground
that the country will not sustain it, there be?
ing no evidence of criminal intent on the part
of the President, and there being a strong con?
viction in the minds of the people that Mr.
Johnson has done only what immemorial cus?
tom has established and sanctioned as consti?
tutional and right. It is a riot, however, that
one of the most red hot Republicana in the
City of New York, who has been first and last
a Radical, and who claims to express the vie ws
of many of his class, declares that tba convic?
tion of Andrew Johnson of tho offences chare ed
will resuit in disaster to the Republican party
for tho reason above given-an entiro lack of
criminal design on his parL He says that
neither the country nor tho world will approve
such a conviction, and that its consummation
will be the most stupendous political blunder.
