Foreign naiions may sdiniro our ambition in this respect, but wou'.d despise our discretion. The national taxes can bo reduced by the adoption of the policy I propose, and by the honest and faithful collection of the internal revenue V ', In fifteen years, and possibly in five, thcfdiiTtficnce in value between gold and greenbacks will have ceased to exist, by a pradtful return to specie payment, and the iUCHtion of the modo of paymcut of the bonds1, whether in gold or "reenbneks, will have become uniiuportt nt. specie payments can bo reached without contracting tho currency, by waiting a reasonable lime, until successful rcconstruotion and iho growth of wealth and business has brought the country up i (he cxiating volumo of currency without a iitioucial convulsion.

What thecotiutry needs is rcpot-o and stability in our fliinncul policy, and without tbroo trade and prtipcrity mut languish. Uhen our debt was contracted, the liieu who now clamor for its immediate payment denounced bonds and greenbal'M a H 1 i Ii e worlhles, and dijsuaded tho pcopt front lending their money to carry on the war; and'my opinion Is, they lliCän HO letter to the country now than they did then.'

Tho. President's View of the matter ts'raid 'o be this: Kuch of tho 'three great brahuHCl of thä Gov ernment is for itself the judge of. the constilutionaiity of a law. - Congrcsi in the first place, is a judge. It pass a law according to contituiionl forms by the re(joisiie majority over the President's veto. According to the Constitutum it can only legislate on certain subjects, j Well, the lw is passed and it comes to tho President for execution. Ho ia sworn to faith fully execute his office and to "preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of tho United Stales."., Wbo is lu determine for him whether, tho law passed by Congress docs not conflict with the Constitution he is awoiii to defend? If ho considers it clearly ,in violation o( the Cunstitulion, is he not Under the most tolimti obligation to rel'üÄd to enforce it? ' It is contended by tiomo that the mote usual mode is for the I'l-'esiJuut to ustume a law 'constitutional until otlierwUo ordered by the Supreme Court. This the Prcsidert considers only applies ' in: doubtful esses but where ' the conflict with the Constitntion is clear and undoubted, the President considtJh ".If his ' duty io decline 'its' enforcement 'altogether. Applying this ."to impeachment -tho fo'lowing is the result: Congress pus.-es articles of impeachment, suspends the . President, and orders his arrest. The alleged oflcote s that ho refues to enforco the laws which he honestly believes to be in antagonism with the .Constitution.. . , '"lie takes one view of the law, Congress another. He holds that he can only be removed on "conviction of treason, bribery, and Other high1 crimes and misdemeanors." He holds that a mcie difference of opinion us to tbc conttitutionality of a law between himself 4 niUCo tigress is neither treason, bribery, nor other high crime or misdemeanor, lie holds, therefore, that he cannot bo impeached, suspended or removed from otlico. ' - Congress insists he can. Then, ho con aiders, Congress places itself in an attitude of revolution. It thus violates tho Constitution by nttcmpting to usurp tho exe ctttivo power, nnd litust be put down. How will this bo done? Tho President, nciing fur tho best iutcrcät of the country, aud deeming the aafety of the republic in danger- will issue a proclamation proroguiug CongrcsH, calling for lu election of new member, ; and invoking the aid of the people to sustain him. This, I am ascuitrd, is the view the President takes of thu iti.p4jucluuri) t muddle, and the way ho wtAtld act should tho oraMon arise, . Under 1L0 Constitution . tho President has the power to prorogue Cougrcsa only in i'tLo of, a. diiDgrcctucnt lo idjourn. Hut in a groat, publio emergency, where the life of the uatiou is at stake, toe President COIIbidcrS Ibe ClCICisO Of extraordinary powers justifiable. Moreover, Congrcss, by nisuming unconstitutional pow. era, and attempting to destroy tho .Executive, qisqualifice itself; is no longer a lawful Congress but.aitody of usurpers and traitors. Ai. such they - have . no 1 rights which the .President is bound to respect, ind the Executive will deal with them aet t-ordingly.,., The President's theory is that they first inaugurate revolution , by,, attempting in iTCÜubvers'ivc of tbe (Jovernment,aud upon thcni will rest tho rc'poO' tibility of any atrilo or confusion tkut may lollow. , Men One Would Rather Not Meet. iMen who toll atories that run into one another, so that you fiui it very diflloult to get away at the end any of them.
