trom the (t lobe. THE SENATE JUDGES. .;Oiim view was taken by Col. RcNTO,in his reeenl powerful speech, which, perhaps more than any other, ought to cnthe solemn attention of the American people. The Constitution of the United State?, Art. 1, Sec. 2, par. 5, thus declares, viz: "Tl.r. fr.viao nf Reurcscntatives shall iw ft v w - - cho se their Speaker ami other officer, an 1 shall hare the sole poucr of impeachment." Art. 1, Sec. 3, par. 0. thus declares viz: "Thr Senate shall have the sole power to try all impeachment. When sitting for thnTpurposc, ihcy shall be on oath or affirmation. When the President of the United States k tried, the Chief Justice 6hil! preside; and no person shall be convicted without the concurrence of twothird of the members present' The following is the language of Art. 2, See. I, par. 1: "The President, Vice President, and all civil o-ficers of the United States, shall he removed from office on impeachment for, and cnviition of, treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors." Mr. Clay, a Senator has offered in the Senate the following resolution, viz: "Resolved, That, by dismissing the late Secretary of the Treasury, because he would not, contrary to his sense of his own duty, remove the money of the United States iu deposite with the Hank of the Uhited States and its Branches, in conformity with the President's opinion, and by appointing his successor to effect such removal, which has been done, the President has assumed the exercise of a power over the Trr-isary of the United States, not giantcd to him by the Constitution and inter, and dangerous to the liberties of the people. It :"innot be forgotten, that Mr. Clay ivfis recently a rival candidate with (Jen. Jackson for the Presidency, and that the people exhibited their preference for the lat'er by an overwhelming vote. Nor can it be forgotten, that a short time ngo .u Philadelphia, Mr. Clay, then as now v. Senab.r, in a published letter, pron a -e l the President guilty of the usur patin lie now charges; and promised to c.v himself in Congress to bring him to puniihment. i o man will deny, that if the President be "iiity of the assumption of a power over the Treasury not warranted by the constitution and laws, and dangerous to the liberties of the people, he ought to be impeached and removed from ff. It is the duty of the House of Representatives to bring an impeachment, it is the duty ot the Senate to call in the Chief Justice, take a solemn oath impartially to try Andrew Jackson, ami a true judgment give, according to the constitution and facts of the case to admit managers on the part of the House to give the accused an opportunity to face his accusers, to cross-examine witnesses, produce testimony, and inak' his defence. Those are the forms of proceeding prescribed by the constitution and laws forms as essential to justice as they are to the preservation of our invalualdo institution-5. In what attitude, decs Mr. Clay place hiieself, and attempt to place the Anieii-, ' an S.Miaici With most men the tact that General Jackson had so recently triumphf over him in an important election, would have inspired some delicacy in re latiou to becoming the foremost among hi accusers. True delicacy would have prompted a oistr ist, that in the ee3of an eno-dikmed public, so-h a movement from s-Jv-li a quarter, miht io supposed to arise vii her from a spirit of hatred, than from disinterested patriotism an ! a sacred regard for th constitution and laws. Rat if this consideration was not sufficient to resti ;i ir. ardent Senator, there was another v Inch would seoni to be irresistible. If the President has been guilfv of the e-Tiormiti-s charged, Mr. Clay is ONE OE HIS .H'DmES. Should the Hoie of Kepn :entatsves find an impeachment, as it is ili'ir duty to do if those charges are true. Mr. Clay will be calhl upon to su e r upon ike Holy Evangelists of Al ??-g ity God, that he will i np irtially try Andre c Jackson, and a true judgment give, according to law and evidence! Wen, what have we here? .1 Judge pronouncing sentence in the streets of Phi. a lchd.ia before the meeting of the tribunal in which alone the guilt or innocence of the person whom ho declares guiltv cf impeachable offences, ran be put to the test!

H it this i3 not all. It was not enough 1VI I ri II U JIUS 3Cliivuv,u ill x liliauv:i'iita, and turn accuser in the Senate but by a resolution, requiring the President to fur? nish an official copy of the paper on which he bases all his accusations, he, attempted to make him furnish evidence to criminate himself! Yes, the accuser judge calls upon the man he accuses to be a w itness against himself, in violation of all decency and all law!! Not that (Jeneral Jackson wouldthink of denying the authenticity of the paper, under any circumstances a paper considered the most illustrious act of his political career but that lessens not the atrocity cf Mr. CSav's act. The accuser judge, not content with these monstrous outrages, then falls to work, and dav after day, harranguca his fellowjudges for three days, to convince them that the President is guilty, and induce I hem so to vote! Has the President been impeached ? NO. Ha a witness been examined? NO. Has the President h jd an oppor j tunity to defend himself f lNO. Upon the allegations of a BanJc Directory, upon newspaper scraps, upon false assumptions of fact, and perversion of long settled principles, the Judges of the President, without an accusation and without a hearing are called upon to pronounce iguilty! Supposing the management of the accuser judge, and trie passage of his resolution by the Senate, shall so stimulate the House of Representatives as to produce an impeachment of the 'resident before the Senate, what would be the atti tude of Mr. Clay? Ho has prejudged the case in Philadelphia months ago ! He has himself been the President's accuser iu the Senate! He h id spent three days in convincing his fellowjudges of his guilt! He will have given a vote of CUILTY on his legislative oath! Sec this man, s o predetermined of the President's giit, and socager to come at his victim, come up to the book and savear by the ron w ho ?iade him, that he will impartially Ini Andrew Jaolison ! And see his fallow judges whom he his induced to prejudge the case who have, on one oath, without an accusation or a trial, pronounced the President guilty putting their hands up on the book, an J. taking another, that the; wul impartial ti tru him! Can a m-enter mockery of oaths, a more shncKtug or itanation of things sacred : a mora flagrant disregard of justice, decency, constitution and laws be conceived. And here, before tins pre determined tribunal, conies the venerable patriot, ihe war-worn soldier, and fearles?, wise and virtuous statesman, to be tried! lie who conquered savage nations' and added whole States to the republic he who drove bak to the ocean the powerf.ii armies of a civilized foe Ac who dared to resist and buffet with abase and corruption in our g v eminent wherever he has found it he who has shivered the corrupt system which am iiious demagogues had built up, and nude nullification and disunion cpiaii before hi-s manly eloquence such a man, widi hold siop and undaunted eye, comes before these predetermined judges, tor trial. What chance for justice will he have? When his sworn enemies, such as Mr. C;ay and Mr. Calhoun and the 13 ink's leed instruments, who have prejudged his case and pronounced him guilty before he has been constitutionally accused or legally beard, me to be his triers, what chance has he for justice Mr. Cla charges tho President with us irpatiun. He is himself AN USURPER! He is attempting to revolutionize the government. Ho is urjinir the Senate to take into its hands the constitutional functions of the House of Representatives. lJceause that Ho'ise will not turn accuser of tli President, he stimulates the Senate to thai office, to become the accuser, prosecutor, witness, judge, jary, and executioner. He whets his knife, like Shy lock, and in his heart savs, 'If I can catch him once upon the hip, 1 will feed fat the ancient grudge 1 b -;ir him, lie rate-s our corporation; ami he rails Even here where lawyers most do congregate.

Independent of the national inducement, the attention of the literary aspirant is directed to the followin ir: In order to assist in advancing American literature, and ve the l eaders of the Novelist's Magazine a share in the advantage of meritorious ta!c;n which the country possesses, the publishers cf that work, satisfied that ;he best way to promote talent is to reward it, off r a premium of SEVEN HUNDRED AND FIFTY DOLLARS, to the author of the best novel, upon a national subject to be presented on or before the first of April, 1331. This premium will be awarded by a cho. sen committee; and the successful work will be printed in handsome book-form, corresponding with thu best London editions of popular novels, in order that the manner of its publication may correspond with the merit of the author. The competitor for the premium will understand that, in addition to the seven hundred and fifty dollars, he will be entitled to fifty dollars for every j thousand copies of ths work which may be i sold, during the continuation of the copy wright, or five dollars for every hundred; which, when competent talent is exercised o:i the work, is not unlikely to produce a fair re munc cation.

MEV7 YEAR. OF VTALDID 9 CIRCULATING LEDnARtf rRosrECTis or two kew yolcmls. A Y u All has now elapsed Mncc the subjL scribcr introduced the new method cf publishing books in a periodical form, so as to be transportable by mail. Sanguine as was hi belief of the advantages, to all clashes, of this experiment, its success has more

than equalled his expectations, and he wnl enter upon a second year with icnecd energy and assiduity. Experience has suggested improvements which have bctru already made; and others, as they offer, will be introduced in the course of the ensuing volumes, tending to give additional interest and permanent value to the enterprise. What has been done, however, is suffi cient evidence of what may be aga'x execu ted, and the subscriber believes that a mere recapitulation of fact will be sufficient to produce conviction of the advantages of his mode of publication, on the mind of thoo who may not yet have taken the subject into consideration. The following works have actually been published in the course of the first vcar for the small turn cf F1VC DOLLARS!! VOL. I. Waldstcin, or the Swedes in Trague, a no k by Madame Fichler.

Editorial Notices, Poetry, &c.&c. Of the S-iU pages which compose the con tents of the two volumes of the year, exactly 590 have been reprinted after u by bookst Hers, leaving 250 which are exclusively in the Library Though that portion was furnished to the booksellers much below the usual rate, and printed on small sized type, still the price in bock form was 812 Co-equal to SEVENTEEN DOLLARS for tiic year. U hen the advantages of circulation by mail are considered, and a!sa that, m clubs of rive individuals, each gets the work for S-l. 00, which difference pays tht pstage, it must be admitted, on all hands, that it is the greatest reduction on the usual seiling prices of any article ever attempted, much, less cxt ewed. But the subscriber does net found his claims to public patronage alone on cheapness of his periodical. The works published have becu of u highlv literarv and very attractive character, as is proed by second bxk cdit'fons having followed those of the 'Library with rapidity, and every one of whuh, even at the 'advanced price charged in that form, has had a most rapid sale. The time and attention of a literary gentleman are almost entirely devoted to inaking selections for the work, and in seeking, from the mass of books in the public institutions of Philadelphia, as well as from the new books imported from Great Britain, the most interesting aud valuable matter; and he hks had the plcavure of hriugmg before the American public several works which, otherwise would probably not have been reprinted here. As it is intended to print only a small number over the copies actually subscribed I for, those wishing the work are respectfully j roqucsted to send their orders as early a possible. As this mode of publication can be supported ooly by a numerous and punctual list of subscribers, the friend to ai economical diffusion of sound litueratuie are called upon for their patronarc. A limited number of the first two volumes, secor.J series, can still be bad b those who desire to possess the cheapest selecticn cf new and god books ever t.'Fere J A.
