Mr. Thornton. the British Mimster, was Among the few per- sonages of note present to-day. Mr. Groesbeck, speaking to-day, failed in Voice at an early stage of bis argument, but Ptsevered in going on, And will probably finish to-day; proposing to makea speech of about three hours’ length. Messrs. Stevens and Williams will, accord- mg to the present understanding, speak on Monday, and perhaps Mr. Williams’ speech may run over into Tuesday. Mr. Evarts fol- lows, and Mr. Bingham concludes, The repeal of the rule requiring the Court of Impeachment to meet at 11 o'clock excites con- siderable comment, as one among the number of indications that a portion of the Republican Senators do not desire the termination of the trial much before the meeting of the Chicago Convention. It is held by many, even of those who are desirous that the case should be brought to ar. early termination, that the — cannot be construed otherwise than to give Senator a fifteen minutes speech en the final vote upon every separate question out of the four. teen which are to be voted on; one of the eleyen articles containing three distinct specifications. This fact which permits in aggregate of nearly four hours’ talking to each Senator, it is thought may relieve the dilatory party of the necessity of making open efforts to defer final verdict until the time referred to. Many Senators say that the adoption of M>. Edmur de’ motion to admit official reporters to the final deliberations will so increase the de- sire to make speeches to go before the country that it will be irresistible, and will result in throwing the doors open to unlimited debate. This subject was canvassed in the Chamber before the Court was opened, and the result was that Mr. Edmunds, when the reading of the journal was completed, moved to postpone it till Monday. Mr. Drake amended it to postpone indefi- nitely; which was lost by 24 to 27. The further consideration of the order was then postponea ti Monday, without division. Senator Sam- ner then offered an order that the Senate pro- ceed to yote on the several articles at 12 o’clock on the day after the final arguments are con- cluded. This was instantly objected to by sev- eral Democrats, and went over under the rules. Mr. Sumner then offered two additional rules, gathered, he said, from previous practice in impeachment cases: Rule 2d. That in taking yotes of the Senate on the srticles of impeschment, presiding officer shall call each Senator by name, How say you! guilty or not guilty as charged, speci- fying the article. Each Senator when ques- tion is so put to him shall rise in his seat, and answer “guilty” or “not guilty.” Rule 24th provides that the Senate at close of voting, shail at once proceed to pronounce the verdict. and if found guilty, the Chef Justice shall thereupon pronounce judgment of re- moval. GENERAL ScHorigi.p NoMINATED TO bE SECRETARY OF WAR.—The President yester- day withdrew the nomination of Thomas Ewing, Sr., as Secretary of War, by sending to the Senate the following communication “To the Senate of dhe United States: T nominate John M. Schofield to be Secretary of the De- pariment of War in the place of Edwin M. Stantor , removed.” General Schofield was born in New York. and entered the service as a Breyet Second Lieutenant in the 2d Ajtillery, on the ist of July, 1853, He resided for some time in Ili- nois,and was appointed from that State. He received his present commission as Major Gen- eral on the 30th of November, [1%64, and was assigned tc the command of the First Military District immediately after the passage of the Recorstruction act, and is still 1m command of that district; being the only one of the officers originally assigned to command the five dis- tricts in the South who has been retained in his command unul this time. No CHARGE TO THE CovRT.—For several days it has been stated privately in political circles that Chiet Justice Chase bad said that on the conclusion of arguments of both sides in the Court of Impeachment, and before the vote was taken, that hefelt it his duty to charge the Senate upon the Iuw bearing on the present case, as is done im cases which are tried before a jury. This statement caused some talk among the leading Radi- cals, and occasioned considerable feeling. In order to aseertam whether the report was true or not, Messrs. Boutwell and Bingham last evening, after the adjournment of the Court, bad an interview with the Chief Jus- luce, and in answer to inquities from them, Mr. Chase said that he had no idea of ddres:ing the Senate in the manner attrituted to him, or im fact atall. THE ARKANSAS ConcnesstonaL DRLEGa- TIoN.—Messrs. B. F. Rice and Alexander Mc- Donald, United States Senators elect from Ar- kansas, and Representative Hines from that State, have arrived in this city. Mr. Rice was chosen to fill the long term, and the Hon. Alex- ander McIouald was elected for the short term. Mr. Rice is about forty years ot age, a New Yorker by birth,and a lawyer by profession. He resided in Kentucky for several years, but ayearor two before the war moved to the State of Minnesota, where he entered the mil- itary service and served during the war as a Captain in one of the regiments trom that State. Asa lawyer he is said to stand in the front Tank of his profession. Hon Alex. McDonald is @ native of Pennsylvania, from which State he moved to Kansas seyeral years ago, where he was well known as an enterprising business man. He is president of the Merchants’ Na- tional Bank of Little Rock, and a skillfal and successful banker. The Little Rock Republican says: “Mr. Mack,” as his friends call him, is considerably under forty years, and a gentie- man of pleasing address and of generous and enlightened views. Tae Wurrerore or It.—The withdrawal by the President of the nomination of Mr. Ewing to be Secretary of War, and the ap- pointment of General Schofield causes lively discussion about town as to the secret of this new move on the board, ‘The generally accepted theory is that the Pres- ident in nomiaating General Schofield holds out the olive branch to the Conservative Re- pudlicans as an assurance that if acquitted on the Impeachment trial he will endeayor to get along ‘with the party. ‘It'was romored to-day that the nomination ‘Was the result of an arrangement between the President and General Grant, but we learn this has no foundation.

PoLiTIcaAL.—A Washington special to the Boston Journal says:—“The Democrats have apparently determined to unite on Gen. Han- cock as their candidate for President, with a Wertern man as Vice President; although some advocate the nomination of Mr. Adams, of Massachusetts.” ‘The Charleston Mercury says:—“Gen. Han- cock seems as likely to get the Democratic nom- on as any mame mentioned, and availabil- ity will determine the man, whether Seymour, Hancock, or Pen \—either acceptable.” The New York ae blican, or of Pen- diewon’s chances e¢ West are all for him. Every State west ot Lake Erie has declared for him, except Indiana, and the voice of her con- vention would have been given in his tayor, but for a desire to gratify Senator Hendricks by & complimentary vote. Kentucky is for him: ‘Tennessee will be for him; Maryland isfor him: Maine is for him: ali the South will be for him. Only New York, Pennsylvania, and five of the New England States will be against him. We say this is surprising. Mr. Pendleton is nota promising candidate at the first view. His record during the war is against him. The fact that be was beaten in 1454 is against him. But, notwithsianding all this, so great is the popular feeling respecting the public debt and taxation, £0 anxious are the people to eseape from the weight of their present financial embarrass- ments, that they are looking to him as a guide out of the labyrinth,” —The Republican State Convention of Det- aware has elected the agen delegates to Chicago: ‘Joshua T.

Rule 2th pro- vides that on conviction the President it shall be the duty of the presiding officer to or- der his removal from office forthwith, in ac- cordance with the requirements ot the Consti- tution, &e. Mr. Johnson objected, and the subject was laid over. The Chief Justice then directed the Prestf dent's counsel to proceed, and Mr. Groesbeck, of counsel, commenced his remarks. He referred primarily to tne fact that in this country we have had five cases of im- penchmer.t—tour of judges and one of a Sena- tor. He laid it down as a first proposition that impeachment was never intended except as a remedy for the removal of an obnoxious officer who beld his position for life. But ums case was now here, and it must be met. He then referred to the argument of the Managers that this body was sitling ssa Senate and notas a court; and be proceeded to argue that it was sitting as a court. He then reviewed some of the authorities upon this subject. Referrng to ihe trial of Senator Blount, be said the tribaual had held in solemn devermination that it was a court. The next case was the Pickering cnse,and in that case the last act Was whether the Court was of the opinion that Pickering should be removed, and the question Was not, is the Senate of the opinion that Judge Pickering sball be removed. So in the Peck case, snd in every other, and in every instance the tibunal solemnly declared itsélf to be a Court. In what spirit then, Senators, should you try this case? And upon this point he would Teer to the language of Judge Story t suthor relative to tl He then read from peachment, my language, but the ianguage of a distin. Kuisbed jurist, whose ability is recognized by all. “The oath yon took as Senators was & political oath, “The oath that is now upon you is a purely judicial oath. You are bere, therefore, Senziers. as a court, and as a court you must act. You are to try this case upon the evidence bronght here, and pot upon common fame or common rumor, as ‘was said by one of ‘he Managers. Your yuris- diction here is stopped after you try the ques- tion whether the President has been guilty of high crimes or misdemeanors. In every court there must be the unlawful purpose and intent, and when that is wsnting there can be no crime. Suppose a President should deranged, and while in that condition should break law after law, you would have no juris- diction to him for high crimes and misde- meanorr., But let us state another case. Pres- ident Lincoln, by court-martial, arrested and imprisoned citizens of the ‘loyal States, and the Supreme Court has since decided bis acts bad no warrant in the Constitution; but wall it be claimed that if President Lincoln were living be could be tried tor a violation of Jaw when h‘s intentions and motives were honest. If the evil int-nt and motive is ab- ept there can be no crime. With these liminary observations be would p: to note the articles of impeachment is presented. The first eight articles charge but two acts, based w the removal of Mr. Stanton. If the Pres: had the right to remove Stanton id to give a letter of ery A Thomas, ben those eight articles fall to round and areof noayail. We therefore have but two inquiries ‘o wake—First, Had the it the Tight to remove Stanton, and had he the right to issue the letter of authority to Thomas ! and Lpon these two questions he proposed to speai. ath to the first question, he would view it m the light of the tenure-of-office act. It was claimed on one hand that the Inw did uot apply to Mr. Stanton: and if that is so, then the President had a it to make the removal. The act was passed ‘ch 2d, 1567. Stanton's commission was dated Comp ny aged 1982, and this commission was given to by Mr. Lin- coln, to hold office during Sef 36 =~ of the President for the time being. Mr. Johnson be- came President in 1565, and he has not commis- sioned Mr. Stanton atail,and Stanton there- fore does not come under the terms of this act. Stanton was not appomted ai all during the current President term. The commission gays be is apponted for the current term, and Mr. Jobncon never appointed Mr. Stanton, this should settle the question of Mr. on’s Tight to make the remoyal. and Jon office in Mr. Lincoin’s term. He contended that it was not in the power of the Congress to extend the tenure of an office which was to he held at pleasure. Again, it would be noticed that the tenure-of-office act contained no re- peaiies clause, and we are therefore at lil (0 look back tothe provisions of the law ee, py nd ice of War, and under of law Mr. Stanton could only hold his office Ss Picasvre of the President Py to Mr. Stanton, tho question still tees whether the conduct of the President was crmemal. Hedid not to argue pow cops Ututionality ef Ww, bat be world tn- qpive whether,in the present aspect of the case, the President was guiltiess of eri 1] removing Mr. Stanton. He started from ths point that the question was a: least don: fal. Gur Government has been divided toto three departments, each indepindent ot he oder, end noone depsttment is Tespousible to the other. All this is clearly set owt in the Cosstitution. At the bead of the exeentive de- Pstiment the President of the United States wand {tation of the United Stues, Pits is Rot an onv’h merely to execuie the laws, for laws is not uamed. Of afl the offfcers of the Goverament the oath to protect, preserve, and Gefend the Constitanon of the United Staten, Administered two the President doubts, in all difficulties, fn must loek alone to the the United States.

He here quoted from Mr. Boutwells Upon this subject, and said the doe- my enunciaied Was the last Oongress sional theory be had heard. Ifa law be clared by the Supreme Court oncenstitetional the President dare not «xecnte one jot or tittle of it; and if he executes that Inw afterwards he violates that higber law, donstitmtion of the United States This, then, explodes Mr. Boutwell’s theory that the President Must execute @f Inw. Furthermore, af a Inw is passed manifestly unconstitutional, Prvsideat ts not bound to execute that law, need pot await the decision of the para- the be urstion be took dis Court. To follow the Constitution is the mount duty of the President, and to integrity of bus department is also a duty, Alter some fi remarks this pont, Mr. Gro beck said be would now proceed to Bote the question what was the duty of the President in consideration of the state of the case and what was the condition of the ques- fiom at the time this removal wns effected.

In this connection Mr. Groesbeck woied fram a decision previously rendered by Bier Testice ‘Mareball upon’ the subject of ntment and removal. He also reter: to the opinion of Chancellor Kent, wherein treating of the act of 1799 held that the power of removal was solely in the President, and all these showed that, donbtful as this question was, it had been partially Passed upon. He referred then to the initiator steps taken by the fathers of the country to have the righis and powers of the Eorcuiive Departments properly defined. At this point, (2.10,) the Court took a recess for fifteen minutes.
