There appears to be some @oubt as to the constitutional mode of administering the exocative government during the pendency of the impeachment.. If the House of Representatives can, by preferring charges, condemn the President to immediate suspension from ‘his functions, the subsequent trial before the Senate sinks into compar- ative unimportance. The trial of Warren Hastings lasted as long as two Presidential terms, and thero will be noth- ing to compa] the managers to accelerate proceedings when they Mave already accomplisned their object by removing Mr, Johnson from office. As the constitution ig silent on the subject, the President would assuredly not acquiesce in any argument for suspension which might be founded on analogy or convenivnce, nor could any substitute who might be appointed discharve bis du- tes except by the consent of all persons who might be sub- ject to his authority. As the Chief Justice would preside over the Senate at the trial, it has been supposed that Mr. Foster, as President of the Senate, would become ‘emporary President during @ provisional interrecnum ; but American lawyers appear not to be agreed on the point, and there is even a doubt as to the law of succes- sion if the President were legally deposed. It seems to be the better opinion that, on the failure both of Presi- dent and Vice President, there must be a new election; and if the dase occurred the Soutnern States would al- most certainly be excluded, in the present temper of the dominant party, all inthe choice, But the nents respectii its for undergreuad in New York city Mr. Thompson, whoae plan is favored by the report of therspocial Senate committee, and Colonel Vanden- i mpson formerly be- longed to the Manhattan Association, which was formed for the purpose of uniting all friends of underground principe on one common scheme for presentation to the Legislature. Mr, Thompson is now accused of turning his back on his old friends, and‘ of going over to the enemies of underground principle, His opponents urge ‘that be has introduced a bill for a route which he knows to be impracticable, solely in order to destroy the pros- pects of other routes presented in good faith, At a meeting of the committee thia afternoon Mr, H. B. Will- son, who was yesterday secretary of Mr. Thompson’s company, uttered the above charges and read a circular signed by W Butler Duncan, J. F. Winslow, Jobn A. Griswoud, ‘and seven other, eritemen whoao names m ware among incorporators in Mr. Thompson's bill opposing the “Metropolitan Underground Railway,” asking that their names be erased, and stating that the Tbompson project would be an odious monopoly, that its directors ‘would be empowered to distribute stock tn their dizcre- tion, and that it involved engineering ditficulties which would derunge the drainage of the city. The: result of this sudden: was the introduction of the Man- hattan Company bill in the Senate this morning. ‘THE CONSTITUTIONAT CONVENTION BILD. was reported to the Hous» this morning by Mr, Hiscock, chairman of the Judi: Committeo, It provides for the election of one hun and twenty-eight delegates one for each Assembly district; thatan election be held for that purpose on the 23d of.
