done, if he can show that he acted in con

Although the distinction is generally broad
enough between statements of tact and points
of law, it happens in this case that the very
points of law need to be supported by oral
testimoney, and not, as is usual, by mere cita
tions of statutes and authorities, and by ar
guments founded on legal analogies. The
reason is that the contemplation of tho Con
stitution and lt^ws, all important official acts
of the President are presumed to be done in
pursuance of ad vie* ; and if he has sought
and followed such advice as thc Constitution
and laws contemplate, bis motives are just!
fied and his errors of judgment, if he has
committed any, are shielded by the advice
bc lias received.
The President is arraigned for alleged vio
lations of the Constitution and laws; but thc
Constitution and laws provide for his acting
upon advice, and if it shall appear in the
trial that he did not neglect to take such ad
vice, and that his action has been in pursu
ance of it, he is absolved from criminality

Should this trial of the President, for the
offence of quarreling with Congress—Con
gress beginning it—be pushed to a convic
tion, what a chapter will be furnished for
history! Thc Constitution authorizes the
impeachment of the President for “high
crimes and misdemeanors.” He has com
mitted no crime, high or low. Hc is im
peached, therefore, for “misdeifleanors,” aud
these consist in endeavoring to remove the

The act conferring that jurisdictioa wm
approved on the 5th day ot February, 1867,
with a full knowledge of thc motives that
prompted its passage, and because it was be
lieved to be necessary and right. ‘Nothing
has since occurred to disprove the wisdom
and justness of the measure, and to moduy
it, as now proposed, would be to lessen tuo
protection of tho citizens from the exercise
of arbitrary power, anu to weaken the safe-
guards of life and liberty, which can never
be made too secure against illegal encroach
ments. _.
The bill not only prohibits the adjudica
tion by the Supreme Court of cases in which
appeals may hereafter be takeD, but inter
dicts its jurisdiction on appeals which have
already been made to that high judicial body.
It therefore, it should become a law, it will,
bv its retroactive operation, wrest lroin the
citizen a remedy which he enjoyed at tho
time of liis appeal. It will thus operate most
harshly upon those who believe that justice
has been denied them in the inferior courts.
The legislation propose in the second sec
tion, it seems to me, is not in harmony with
the spirit and intention of thc Constitution.
It cannot fail to affect most injuriously the
just equipoise of our system ot government;
for it establishes a precedent which, it fol
lowed, may eventually sweep away every
check on arbitrary and unconstitutional leg
islation. Thus far during the existance o£-
the Government the Supreme Court of the-
United States has been viewed by the people-
as tho true exuouuder of their Constitution,
and in thc liu st violent party conflicts its
judgment and decrees have always been
sought and referred to with confidence and,
respect. . .
In public estimation it combines judicial
wisdom and impartiality in a greater degree
than any other authority known to thc Con
stitution; and any act which may be con
strued into or mistaken for an attempt^ to
prevent or evade its decisions oa r. question
which affects the liberty of the citizens and
agitates tho country cannot fail to bc at-
tcndcrl with unpropitious consequences.
It will he justly held, by a large portion of
tbe people, as an admission cf the uuoonsti-
tutionality of thc act on which its judgment
may he forbidden or forestalled, and may in
terfere with that willing acquiescence iu its
provisions which is necessary for tne harmo
nious and efficient execution of any law.
For these reasons, thus briefly and imper
fectly stated, and for others, ot which want
of time forbids the enumeration, I deem it
my duty to withhold my assent from ibis
bill, anil to return it for thc reconsideration,
of Congress. Andrew Johnson.
