And do we not know also that while he has @ppointed a Secretary of War ad interim, he dare him, ard this day and this hour the Whole business of the War Department stops? Mr. Butler reminded the Senate that. a gallant officer of the army, if confirmed by them to-day, who by right ought to have his commission and his pay commenced when his appointment reached him, have to wait if this motion prevailed for forty long as it took God to destroy this world by a (Latghter.) And for what, I wonder? That the intelligent and able counsel might delay the trial still donger when one department of the govern- ment was already thrown into confusion while the: were blamed. But, he continued, that is not a ie t pulse of the nation beats in Perturbation, while this strictly constitutional but wholly anomalous proceeding goes on, and it pauses Ditfully when we pause, and goes forward when we go forward, and the very Praag to-day in this country is arising out of the desire of men to have business interests settled, to have paceperity. return, to have the spring open as auspiciously under our Jaws as it will under the laws of nature. I say the very pulse of the nation beats here, and, beating fit- ly, requires us to still it by bringing this respond- ent to justice; from which God ao him deliverance, tfheso deserve, at the earliest possible hour con- sistent with his right. Mr. Butler then argued that hile all the time shown to be necessary when the - case came to trial should be grant no time ~ghould be fixed in advance. They should not pre- sume in advance that the respondent could not, get . Let him put in his answer, and then, tthe showed the absence of necessary witnesses, the man- rg would either acquiesce in a proper delay or adwit all he sought to prove by the testimony. He ‘would not deny the respondent a single indulgence conaistent with public safety. They asked no more rivileges than they were willing to grant to him. e great act for which he had been brought to the bar was committed on the 2ist of February. He knew its consequences ag well as they did. The Howse “Gi Representatives had dealt with %t on the 23d, On the 4th of March the) had brought it before the Senate wit they called its legal consequences, and now v here ready for trial—instant trial. Some 5] mbna gat twenty-two hours in the day on the trint of crimes, and they, God giving them rehgth, would sit here every day and every hour to trix! to a conclusion. He knew exactly .What he had don,® They had ranted him more time, ‘and now they ask, “d that he should be prepared then to meet them. He hoped that hereafter no man, bywhere, would sa,” # at the charges upon which Pee ee a 2 arraigned were frivolous, ‘unsubstantial or of non: -effect, hae Souneel Ce ‘0 wou! not for their lives sae tar erat aay Wh, ‘eve, told the Senate that with all their legal abin 'Y, they could not put $B. 9 gnswer to, the ch, Sahay re ha Mey, fh less than | fort, after recapitulating, ays. Mr. Butler concluded, ht ought to in- the considerations which he th" py rem! ing fiuence them in deciding this here trial either them that a speedy termination of the 1 prayt way would ane quiet to the country, am. “he te ‘them not to decide this question upon which. ver of the nation depends—the greatesf question that. .. came before any body on any of the ordinary anah gies of law. Judge NELSON, of counsel for the President, said: — Ihave endeavored, in coming here, to divest my anind of the idea that we are engaged in @ jolitical discussion, and have tri to be ca npg only with the thought that we appear before a tribunal sworn to tr; reat question ‘which has been submitted for its consideration and ‘to dispense justice and equity between two of the —— wers, if | may so express myself, of the id. Ihave come here under the impression that there is much force in the observation which the ‘honorable Manager (Mr. Butler) made, “that this 4ribunal is not to be governed by the rigid rules of oa! but is disposed to allow the largest liberty, both ‘ the honorble Managers on the part of the House ‘of Re} ntatives and the counsel on behalf of the President.” I have supposed, therefore, that there ‘was nothing improper in our making aD appeal to his tribul for time to answer the charges ferred, and that instead of that appeal en J ‘denied, ao more liberality would be extended by the te of the nation sitting as a Court of ‘ ment than we could even expect on a trial an a court of common law. It ts not sor yorpoas: ‘Mr. Ohief Justice, to enter at this stage into a dis- ‘cussion of the charges, although it would seem to be Anvited by one or two of the obversations made by athe honorable Manager (Mr. Butler). He has tol sou that itis right in a case of this kind to proceed ith railroad speed, and in consequence of the t fmprovements of the age. the investigation of this ase can be proceeded with much more §) ily than at could have been a few years ago. The charges amade here are charges of the oe importance. Whe questions which will have to be considered by this honorable body are questions in whicl mot only the representatives of the people are con- cerned, but in which the people themselves have the dee) and most lasting interest. Questions are mes here in reference to difference of opinion ween the Executive of the nation and the honora- ble Cor as to the constitutional powers and as to the rights’ which they respectively claim. These are questions of the utmost gravity, and are questions ‘which, in the view that we entertain of them, should receive @ most deliberate consideration on the = of the Senate, and trust that a may pardoned by the Chief Justice and @onators for making an allusion to a statute which as long been in force inthe State from which come. Ionly do it for the purpose of making a rief argument by analogy. ‘e have a statute in ‘Tennessee which has long been in force and which pyovides that when a@ bill of indictment is found ‘against an individual and he knows that, owing to excitement or other cause, he may not have a fair trial at the first term of the court, his case shall be be continued to the next term of the court. The mode of proceeding at law ts not a mode of railroad speed. If there is yg under heaven, Mr. Chief Justice, which gives wo judicial proceedings a claim to the consideration and approbation of mankind 4t is the fact that justice and courts hasten slowly in ue investigation of cases presented to them. Noth- ing is done or presumed to be done in a state of xcitement. Every moment ts allowed for calm and = deliberation. Courts are in the habit of in- ing causes slowly, carefully, cautiously; and when they form their judgment and pronounce their ‘opinions, and when those opinions are published to ‘the world, they meet the sanction of judicial and Qegal minds everywhere, and meet the approbation and confidence of the people before whom they are romulgated. If this is so—and this is one of the proudest characteristics in the form of judicial proceedings in courts—how much More ought it to apply in an exalted and honorable hog | like this, composed of tthe test of the United States, of Senators re- ve and honored by their countrymen, and who from their position are presumed to be free from re- roach and to be calm in their deliberations. I need ot tell you, sir, nor need I tell many of these hon- orable Senat whom I address on this occasion, many of whom are lawyers and many of whom have Deen clothed in times past with the Judicial ermine, hat in the courts of law the vilest criminal Who ever ‘was arraigned in the United States has been granted ime to prepare for trial, and the right not ong to be heard himself, but to be heard by counsel. No mat- ter how great his crime, no matter how deep may be the malignity of the offence with which he ts ‘eharged, still he is tried according to the forms of Jaw and is allowed to have counsel. Continuances re granted to him, and if he is unable to obtain justice time is ii him and all manner of prepara- on is allowed him. If this is so in courts of com- mon law, where ay, are fettered and bound by the ron rules to which ve adverted, how much more Bo ought it to be in @ great tribunal like this, which Goes not follow the precedents of law which is secking alone to obtain justice? Is Mt necessary for me to remind you and honorable Ecnators that upon a page of foolscap there my be @ bill of indictment prepared against an individual ‘which might require weeks in the investigation? Ia fi necessary for me to remind this honorable bod, Ghat it is an easy thing to make charges, but that it is often a laborious and difficult thing to make a de- fence against those accusations, reasoning from the Bualogy found by such proceedings atlaw? Tearnest- ty maintain before this honorabie body that suitable Ome shonid be given us to answer the charges pre- ferred here. A large number of these charges in- Wolve an inquiry running back to the very foundation pi the government; they involve an examination of Nie precedents that have been #anctioned by differ. Put administrations; the; payoiyes i short, the most Pxtensive range of Inquiry ‘and the two last charges Pretented by the House o Representatives, if 1 ma; e pardoned for using an expression of the view ata the of them, open up Pandora's box and will use the Investigation as to the it differences in pinion which have existed between the Presidént hd Congress—an inquiry which, so far as I can ercelve, will be almost interminable in its charac- or. Now, whatdo we ask here for the President | the United States, the highest officer in the land? © ask simply that he may be allowed time for his jefence. On whose judgement is he to rely in rela- son to that? He must in a it part rely on the a no of » —— to beso he has entrusted is defence. We, who are professionally responsibl uve asserted in the presence of tlits Sonate in the ce of the nation and of the whole world, that we believe it will require the number of to re the President's aiaire an oe maneonsadin taboos sition submitted to the Senate. ion, Are those grave charges to! ‘a8 @ judicial i Beas & Senate, yeaa hot and with speed, Without giving che = unit a would give to ry ty wi! you w ve to the meanest ehiminalt °t do. not believe, Mi Oblet duetice and honorable Senators, that Will hesitate one mo- ment in giving us all the that we deem neces- sary for preparing defence and that & mer neceasary to enable body judictously, Ny deliberat and cautiously, and with a view of | secountabilny’ wot oo to its constituents, but to posterity, to decide case, I have no doubt that he honorabe Senatora, in justice to themselves and in justice to the great land which they represent, will endeavor to condnst this investigation in a manner that will stamp the im;'ess of honor and penion uj them and upon their Jing, not only now, but in ail time to come, after all of us shall have passed away from the stage of human action. Mr. Chief Justice, this is an exalted tribunal. I say it in irit of compliment, but because I feel it. I feel that there {s no more exalted tribunal th: be convened under the sun, and say, in answer to an observation of one of the honorable Managers, that I for one, a3 an American citizen, feel proud that we have assembled here to-day, and assembled under the cir- cumstances which have brought us ther.

Mr. BinaHam said:—I am instructed by the Mana- ee to say that the proposition just suggested by the onorable Senator from New York is entirely satis- factory to the Managers on the part of the House, and to say further that we believe it in perfect accord with the precedents in this country. e Senate wil! doubtless remember tt in the trial of the case when a day was fixed the trial the Senate adopted an order which was substantially the same as the order sugmening, by the Senator from New York.

The House then went into Gommittéé of the Whole and resumed the debate on the state of Ireland. Mr. Chichester Fortescue, member for Louth, took the floor in support of the motion of Mr, Maguire. He thought a satisfactory reform in Ireland was pos- sible without disturbing the tenure of lands; but argued that Church reform needed the same ‘rank dealing as emancipation in 1827 and '20. Mr. McKenna, member for Youghal, thought he saw in the ‘ee of the new University a pledge on the part of the government to treat the religious sects in Ireland on a footing of equality. The O'Donoghue, member for Traiee, said the dis- affection among the Irish people was wide spread and reached ali classes of society, paralyzing trade with the constant fear of its consequences, The Church and land questions were leading causes of discontent, but the principal cause of al was the refusal of independence in legislation. Ireland was now voiceless and helpless, The first remedies to be applied shouid be to deprive the Irish Church establishment of its oran | endowments and grant to tenants leases of not less position which has | duration than thirty-one ears. Mr. Hamilton charged the O'Donoghue with being an organizer of mock funerals in honor of assassins, and said he was unfit to act as an adviser. Mr. John Bright said no question approached this in magnitude or gravity. The evil of absenteeisin the injustice of the Church Estabiish- ment were hot the only fauits. The tenants required proprietary rights, The scheme pro- posing that the government advance money for their relief was impracticable. Ownership in the soll could only make a people steadily loyal.

INDIANAPOLIS, March 13, 1868. In the Presbyterian Union Convention the topics suggested yesterday were discussed during the entire session of to-day, and the following minutes were adopted:— Resolved, That this Convention holds that the Church ts by the constitution of her living head is one built upon the foundation of the Aposties and Prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone, and that however unpracticable a visible or- ganic union may at present seem, it is the duty of all the different branches of the Church to pray for and by all proper means seek such organic union. Resoived, That from the expression of opinion given in the Convention, the basis of the Philadel- oy Convention is endorsed as a satisfactory basis for i tiie reunion of the Old and New School Assem- bile: as Resolved, That in the language of the Philadelphia basia, the book of psalms, which is of divine inspiration, is well adapted to the state of the Church in all ages and circamstances, and should be used tn the worship of God; therefore we recommend, to prepare, the way for the smalier bodies represented 'n tus Convention to unite with larger, that a pew and fatthful version of the book of psalms be prepared witich shall take the first place tn the authorized psaimody of the United States Church. The Convention then adjourned sine die. THE NEW DOMINION. Floods at Chatham—Ten Miles of the Great Western Railway Track Washed Away. OMATHAM, Canada, March 13, 1868.
