The Benate yesterday reconsidered the vote adopt ing the Trumbull amendment to the Post-Office Ap- propriation bill. We can discover nothing better in the arguments for recousi diency and timidity—always a weak ground to stand on, and iu this instance discreditable as well as fool- | ish. Some of the Senators who voted to reconsider will yet learn that in such a crisis as they are called upon toact in, the only safe policy is courage. OFf the constitutionality aud propriety of Mr. Trumbull’s amendment we have already expressed our opinion. The vote to recede was 21 to 15, —_— REMOVALS AND A INTMENTS - PRESIDENT AND BENATE. The World and The Times simultaneously aseail the positions taken in our article on the Right and Wrong of the issue which looms on the horizon of the future between the President and the Senate of the United States—or rather, they assail certain positions which they have chosen to substitute for ours. Let s try still further to elucidate the matter. Here aro the material facts: 1L The Federal offices are now filled mainly by members of the party to whom both President and Senate owe their respective positions. 11. Between the President and the Senato there is a very decided divergence of views touching what is called Reconstruction; and this divergence may result in positive antagonism. 111. In view of that divergence, & large part of the “ederal officers (no matter for our purpose how large) decidedly sympathize with the Senate—as, we are con- fident, do astill larger portion of the party to which President, Senate and Federal officers alike owe their power. 1V. These officers are frequently told that they owe their offices to the President—that they are “ecating his bread "—that, if they choose to oppose his ** poli- ¢y, they must expect to surrender their officos to those who will heartily sustain that policy. V. The Federal Constitution, in the ouly clause Dearing upon the subject, says of the Presiden + o shall nominate, and, by and with the advice and consent of the Senats, appoint, all’ officers of the Unitad Statos whose ap polutients are not otherwiso provided for." —Now, then, we muintain, upou full view of this state of the facts and of the law, that the President ha: no right to remove from office these functionaries be- canse they hold with the Senate, with Congress, and with the great mass of the party which clected both President and Congress—that to do this in the recess | of the Scnate would be to violate the above Coustitu- tional provision, at least in its esseuce, its spirit, its plain iutent and purpose—and that the Senate have rights in the premises which such a proscription would —Now let us hear The World o this matter: “In appointmonts to office under the Government, the Con- omination ; whioh is vested jpointment ; which also belongs to the President, e "1'1\- commission ; which s the President's sole act, o fuitial and the fiaal step i every appointment being letely against the uecessity of toleratiog in oftice any person does not approve. 0 inquire at what stago of this triple the [pmnrmy of the word riici potion of the Senate.

Senators) that a va- | cancy may ezist in a recess which nevertheless cannot be filled because it did not really ocenr in that re- cess? Ifanoflico falls vacant in the recess of the Senate by the resignation, op death, or proved inca- pacity or infidelity, of the incumbent, we do not con- test the President’s right temporarily to fill it. What we maintain is that for the President to remove in the recess of the Senate officers to whose appointment the | Senate has consented, in order to fill their places with others to whose appointment he is well aware that the Senate would not consent, is a flagraut abuse | of power, and a plaia defiance of the spirit aud intent of the Constitution. That was our original position; and we cannot see that The World has evén looked it fairly in the face. The N. ¥. Times thus characteristically meets our position: + Absurd ns the argnment is, wo must confoss that it appears {0 bo the only possibio plea for the pretension set up under Mr. Trambull's smeadment, The object of the amendment every man in the country ucderstauds. It is not to protect Ihejnnl 1ights of the Senate against invasion; for there is no | evidence of their having been in jeopardy. Tt is not to prevent | improper appointments; for there is 1o allezation that Presi- dent Johnson bas nominated, or is likely to nominate, an unfit offico at hia disposal. It s simply and solely to President, to subject Lis action to yexations re- straints, to prove the power of Congress to harass and cripple bim, to deprive uim of authority vested in bim by tha Constitution, and with the lawful exercise of which no person to any anuoy the former Congross bas similarly to_interfore.

Discreditabls and impolitic as the proceeding of the Senate is, a8 between itself and President Johuson, it is yet worse when considered as a new iofluence in the administration of public affairs.

The N. V. Erpress says: “Chief-Justice Chase declines to hold Court in Virgioia, in o nence of military law existing there. Henoe, Jetf Davis be tried there. ~Why *‘hence ! There is a U. 8. District Court in old Virginia, with a Judge who is not at all un- willing to try Mr. Davis or any other alleged cril nal. But we presume that & man must bo indicted before he can be tried in any department of the U. 8. Su- preme Court, Chief-Justice Chase, we understand, does object to holding Courts at any place where Martial Law is still in force, He thinks that dispensing justice under the paramount rule of a Major or Brigadier- | General is not consistent with the character, the dig- | nity, of the Court over which he presides But if any suppose lhim averse to presiding over trials for treason, their presumption is unwarranted. He lately held a term of his court at Baltimore, where several persons are under indictment for treason, e was perfectly willing to try them, and the accused, we presume, were ready for trial; but the Government was not: so those cases were put | over, on motion of the District-Attorney. A recent case in New-Orleans secms to settle the | question as to the existence of martial law in Louisi ana. An action was brought by one Tweed in the | United States District Court to recover 500 bales of | | cotton from B. F. Flanders, Government Cotton | Agent, and @ writ of sequestration was issued com- manding the United States Marshal to take possession | | of tho cotton pendente lite. But, at the request of Mr. | | Flanders, Gen. Canby resisted the service of this pro- | cess, and retained the cotton as captured property be- longing the United States. Thereupon Gen. Canby was required by Judge Durell to show cause why he should not be punished for contempt in obstructing | the execution of the writ of sequestration. The General was polite enongh to go to court and explain matters, but declined to let go the cotton, He considered that e hield it as he did the forts and munitions of war be- longing to the United States. Judge Durell in these circumstances declived to Lold a court over which martial law was supreme, and in giving his decision Bays: “ When I first took my seat npon this b BRL A gl e R g it engaged io putting down the great Rebellion.

Troops, it was re- ported, were being concentrated in large numbers at Bologna; Garibaldi bad left Caprera in order to take partin a campaign against Austria; and there were even rumors that bands of volunteers had already in- vaded Venetin, Under these circumstances the Aus- trian Government deemed it indispensable, while dis- | arming in all other portions of the Empire, to keep its army on the Italian frontier upon the war footing. municated to Prussia and the other Great Powers of Europe, The Prussian Government showed itself highly dis- pleased with this interpretation put upon the argu- ment. As far as we can learn from the telegraphic dispatches, it insisted that Austria should reduce its entire army to a peace footing, no matter whether Italy was arming or not. With this demand Austria deemed it impossible to comply, but she offered to complete her disarmament if France and England | would guarantee the nentrality of Ttaly. A semi- | official paper of Berlin intimated that should Austria attack Italy, Prussia could not consent to see the Italian army disabled. All this does certainly not point to a vey pacific disposition of Prussia. —e REFORM IN ENGLAND. The vote on the Franchise bill in the English House of Commons is not as gratifying as we could have boped. In a House of 631 members, unusually full, and showing but 27 absentees, the Government reccived 313 votes, 313 voting against it. *"Tisnot | 50 deep as a well, nor 30 wide as & church door; but "tis enough, "twill serve.” We are afraid we can get 10 better consolation out of it than this, The closing days of the debate exhibited many sigas of disintegra- tion and demoralization in the Liberal party, This was inevitable when we look at the elements com- posing that party. The present members were elected under the leadership of Lord Palmerston. That leader, by reason of long years of service, his career going back to the time of the younger Pitt, and the con- tinned success that had attended a policy which, with all its faults, was true to the English sentiment, —what perhaps we might call the rowdy English sen- timent of brag and bluster—had gained a commanding influence in England. Although his policy was a protest against Reform, he was accepted by the Liber- als as & providential dispensation, better than Toryism | perhaps—a leader, nnder protest, and well to follow ym- home. Those who followed Palmerston’s fortnnes and who were the instruments of his policy—like Lowe for instanee—disappointed Liberals like Hors- man, who vainly yearned for Cabinet portfolios— aristooratic Libarals like the Earl of Grosvenor, who Reform that would weaken the Tories, and help them- selves—all sloughed off, and found pretexts for deser. | tion as soon as an houest and manly Franchise system was proposed, The Goverument may stagger now from the defec- tion of these classes, but, in the nature of things, it wis to be expected. The party which is led by the | boldly declare that they consider Reform measures | but temporary expedients—slices of a loal that must De theirs in time—steps toward the realization of the sentiment that English manhood shall represent Eu- glish suffrage—cannot expect to have the sympathy | of pensioners upon the old Whig Houses, like Mr. the heirs of those Houses, like Grosvenor. Privilege is weak—prone to do the wrong thing at the right time, Never was this more fully shown than now, As Mr. Gladstone eloquently advised the aristocratic leaders, their duty was to be wise in time, As Mr. Bright duving this very debate, in & spirit of honest pride which eannot be considered egotism, nobly said, ** the policy which I have urged upon the House and upon the country, as far as it bas heen accepted by Parliament, is a policy conservative of she public weltare, strengthening the just authority of Parliament, and adding from day to day fresh luster v to the crown.” Aristocracy can only be Lowe, or the people would array them against the nobles shows a want of common sense, which would be surprising were it not characteristic, If we look to America we find the humblest classes, the men who labor and who have no possible sympathy with wealth and power, voting for the men who best represeut the The lordly planter who through the degradation of labor, had no more obedient slave than the poor Irishmau who | spent his days breaking stone, or | building tarnpikes. It would be so in England if the aristocracy were to be wise in time; for it is in poor human nature to love ribbons and coronets, to adore the divinity which is said to surround majesty. The classes, however, instead of moving and in time winning these classes and ““ adding from day to day fresh luster and dignity to the crown,” make -issue with the working people, an issue which | brands them as Englishmen unfit to be concerned in | the honor of the crown, They may fight for it, pay taxes for its snpport, obey it as dutiful subjects, but t i | linment, nor ever possess representation there, | Therefore, we say, better that the Government of Lord Russell should be weak in the hauds of its | friends than strong with thestrength of its enemies —a strength which would certainly dissolve in the hour of its trial.

England feels strongly on this question, and the friends of liberty everywhere send words of comfort and encouragement. A defeat means further purification, The party of progress, led by Gladstone | and Bright, and Mill and Gibson, men who come from the people and represent genius and energy, and not the faded virtues of forgotten fathers, must triumph in | M the end.

The Suffrage bill, lately lost in the Senate of Ton- | nessec, proposed to enfranchise Blacks aud Rebels al like (neither class being now allowed to vote). Of | course, it provoked opposition from opposite sides, whereby it was defeated—16to 5. That defeat, how- | ever, is not final. In supporting the bill, Mr, Trimble | of Davidson said: ** Now, a3 to the negro, justice, reason, common sense, and Nature iersef, all uaits i the demand that all human boiogs who bave a share it our society, obey the laws, deport thom- selves honorably and booestly, aod bear the burdons of govern- ment, shall be allowad to participate in saying who shall eon- trol the Govercment.

We bave heard of no great crime which has less doubt than this, or more mystery. Tt puzzles the public to know whether the Feuisn leaders are acting a tragedy in fun, or only a fares in earnest. In either case, all friends of the Green Lsla will rejoice that no Irishman has been mortally wounded. Mr. O'Mahony's lotters, proclamations, orders, and pronunciamentos, show that he would ba » safo leader to the and of time; and Gen. Sweeny is aqually bloodthirsty and bloodiess. M. Killian's ex- pedition is a bold illustration of bow well Feniana can keep o secret, and Mr. O'Mabiony’s defenso in another. Of *“dint and powder shock” we hear a great deal, but it is only the noise of exploding Fe- nian *secrets.” These things do not prove that Fenians are wanting in bravery or ardor, but first, that their leaders require common sense, aud, second, that it is folly, shooting off at the maddest tangent, to attempt a revolution in Canada with a corporal’s guard, or to capture Ireland with a gunboat. Mr. O'Mahony has done well in not baving succoaded, and Corporal Killian might bave gone further and fared worse. Whenee follows, wo think, that the Fenian Brotherhood, being bound to fail where suo- cess is impossible, is best as a moral power. Do the Fenians believe in moral power ?
