In_the early vears of the reign of the House of Hanover mpeachments were numerous, and the two Houses of Parliament did not even doem it be- neath their dignity to put forth all their power and maguificence for the punishment of such petty crimes as smuggling. In several ms,ou the only result of the proceedings was that the Lords and the Commons got at loggerheads on technical questions, and the priseners efit the cause for famous trial of Dr. of Queen Anne, 18 The carliest instance of urred in 1376, 111., when the d by the Com- tion of the public from his place. led to vesign his the form of an by Parliament ign de- but_the shame- otion which eharacterized the reign . cansed its revival, and it was used energy by the Commons, both as an power and 4 yublie justice.

The protection of Charles 1., who went to the length of dissolving Parliament in order to save his favorite, could not have shielded the Duke long from the vengeance of the Commons; but his career was cut short by the knife of an assassin. The power of impeachment now became, in the hands of the popular rty led by Pym and Hampden, a weapon ofvéln' 2 smendous power, and they used it without merey.

Impeached for tyrannl and corrupt practices during his administration s Governor-General of British India, he was tried before one of the most distinguished as- semblages that ever gathered in Westminster Hall—Burke, Fox, and Sheridan making some of their most celebrated speeches as managers on behalf of the Commons.

Hastings : large majorities on all the charges, and ’nub ic opinion, which was mvaficlg hostile to him at (g:e beginning, was strougly in his favor before the end; and in neither case was precisely just. Henry Dundas, Viscount Melville, the cele- brated “colleague and friend of Pitt, was im- peached in 1805 for misapplication of the publie money and complicity with a swindling pay- master, while Treasurer of the Navy. His trial began in Westminster Hall, May 29, lflofl1 an on the 12th of June he was sequitted by a nrfo majority—a result which satisfied nol of the innocence of the accused, and tended fo bring into contempt both the House of Lords and the ractice of trial by imgeml ment. That was the Bmt notable trial of the kind which has taken place in England. A Mr. Paul made frequent attempts in the House of Commons, in 1806, to bring forward articles of impeachment against Marquis Wellesley for misconduct in the gov- ernment of India ; but the abortiye proceedings agninst Hastings and Melville h: disgusted both Parliament and people with a form of trial which seemed to have become little better than an expensive system of whitewashing, and Mr. Paul’s charges were never entertained.

The case of John Pickering, Judge of the District Court of the District of Vew-Hampshire, who was mn;wrwhvd in Mareh, is a peculiar one. There were four ges. The first three referred to am_ illegal proceedings taken in the Judge's court in reference to a ship seized for violation of the revenue laws. The fourth alleged that he was a man of loose morals and intemperate habits, and that on certain speci- fied occasions he had appeared on the bench in a state of total intoxication, and had been then and there gnilty of profanity and other dis- graceful misdemeanors, The trial began March 8, and closed ou the 12th, a verdict of being rendered on all the charges, and Judge Pickering was removed from office.

On “the right and in front of the Chair was a box for the managers, and on the left a similar box for the accused and his_ counsel.

Peck, Judge of the United States District Court for the District of Missouri, was impeached of high misdemeanors in office in 18%0. The ground of accus- ation ingt him was that he had im- prisoned and suspended from practicing in his court an attorney named Lawless, for an al- leged contempt in commenting in a newspaper communieation upon one of the Judge’s decis- ions. The articles of impeachment were pre- sented by Mr. Buchanan, May 4, 1830, The trial began on the 20th of December, and lasted until the 81st of January, when the accused 'wm_ vronounced acquitted, twenty-one Senators (;::iv‘l‘!;x voled him guilty and twenty-two mot ,An attempt was made in 1843 to impeach President Tyler, and this movement derives especial interest from the close resemblance between the circumstances of Mr. Tyler's case and that of Mr. Andrew Jolinson.

The cl harges acensed the President of gross usarpation of power and violation of law in ordering the payment of rejected claims upon the Treas- ury; of wickedly and corruptly abusing the power of appointmient and removal ; of retaining men in office for months after they bad been rojected by the Senate; of abusing the veto power, ahd q’{f other high crimés and mis- demeanors, The Houss refused, by a vote of 127 to 83, to appoint a~commitlee of in- quiry, and so the matter was allowed to drop. ‘.qulgg’ Watrous of the United States Distric Court for the Western District of Texas was n(-runwllnf official miscondnet and corruption, and a Committes of the House of Represen tives reported in February, 1857, in favor of his impeachment; but after s ten months' diseus- i was digmigsgd, the Honsa pasaly 803, cb uilty the | ben- | coed gy e oles for farthd \ CIVIL COURTS. et UNITED STATES COMMISSIONER'S OFFICE—MARCH 9.—Before Commissioner BETTS.
