TUE MAJORITY OE THE COMMETTE RECOMMENDTUE HOUSE TO PREFER ARTICLES OF IM¬

PEACHMENT TO THE SENATE.

As briefly stated in our Washington telegrams,three several reports from the Judiciary Committeewere presented to tho House of Representatives on

Monday last on tho proposed impeachment of thePresident. Tho majority report, concluding with

a rcsolut'on recommending impeachment, is sign¬ed by Me ssis. Boutwell, of Massachusetts, Law¬

rence, of Ohio, Wilhams, of Pennsylvania, Thom¬

as, of Mrryland, and Churchill, of New York. Itis extremely len ,'tby, coverin 1 soveral hundredpages of closely written foolscap. Tho chairmanof tho committee, J.r. Wilson, of Iowa, presenteda minority report, signed by himself and Mr.

Woodbridge, of Vermont, ta'ung the ground thatin view of all tho evidence which has been present¬ed, there IB nothuigto require the interposit iou of

tho constitutional power of tho House, and recom¬

mending that the subject be laid on the table.The only Democrats 011 the committoo, Messrs.

Eldridge, of Wisconsiu, and Marshall, of Hlinois,also presented a minority report agreeing in themain with thc conclusions arrived at by Messrs.Wilson and Woodbridge. We give below a full ab¬stract of tho

MAJORITY REPORT.

The Committee on the Judiciary, to whom was

referred thc resolution of thc 7th of March la6t,authorizing them to i.iquiro into thc official con¬

dor: ol Andrew Johnson, Vice-President of thcUnited States, discharging tho present duties ofthe office of President ol tho United States, andt report to this House whether, in their opinion,tho Baid Andrew Johnson, while in said office, hasboon guilty of neus which wero dosignod or calcu¬lated 10 overthrow or coi rapt thc Government ofthe United States, or any department or officerthereof, und whether the said Andrew Johnsonhos boon guilty of any act, or has conspired withother» to do acts which, in tho contemplation ofthc Constitution, are high crimes a id misdemean¬ors requiring tho interposition of th 'constitution-.-.1 power of this House, respectfully report :That in thc performance ol tue important task

assigned to them, they have spared no paius tomake their investigation as complete as possible,not only by the exploration of the public archives,but in following every indication that seemed to

promise any additional light upon the great sub¬ject of inquiry, and they submit herewith the re¬

sult of that portion of their labors in tho volumi¬nous exhibit that accompanies this report. Inorder, however, to direct the attention of theHouoc to such portions of the somewhat hetero-geneous mass of testimony, which they havo beencompelled to present w ithout tho order of arrange¬ment that might have facilitated itu examination,as arc regarded by them as most material lo thoissue, they will now proceed to stale, us briefly as

possible, tho leading facts which they snppose thoinquiry to haye developed beyond dispute, alongwith then own conclusions "therefrom, and thereasons by which they haye boen influenced inreaching thom. In so doing they rmist bc allowedt' o indulgence which a comprehensivo scrutiny,rntinning oven a two years' administration of theaffaira of a great Government, through an un¬

exampled crisis of thc State, and involving thevery highest matters that can engago the atten¬tion of a free people, would seem to necessitate,and must, at all evputs. expose.The charges made, »nd to which the investiga¬

tions o! thc Committee have been especially direct¬ed, aro usurpation 0?Dower and violation of law inthe corrupt abuse of the appointing, pardoning andreto powers ; in tho connut interference in elec¬tions, and generally, in tue commission of actsamounting to high crimes and misdemeanors un¬

der the Constitution ; and upon this recital it was

charged with the inure general duty* ol inquiringinto tho official c nduct oí the President of thuUnited States, and of reporting "whether he hadbeen guilt) Cf any acts which were designed or cal¬culated to overthrow, subvert or corrupt tho gov¬ernment of tho United Maies; or which, in con¬

templation of the Constitution, would constitute a

high cl inic or misdemeanor requiring the interpo¬sition of the constitutional power of tho House."

lt will bc obüorvcd that the great salient pointot accusation standing o;:t in thc forogrouud andchallenging the attention ot tnt country is usurp"t-? ion of power, winch involves, of COUfBâ, ¡1 viola¬tion ot law. And hero it may be remarked thatperhaps every great ?huse, every flagrant depar¬ture from the well-settled principles of the Gov¬

ernment, which has been brought home to itspresent administration, whether discerning itselfin special iüfrncUcns of tho statutes or in the

The dutiesresponsibilities of the men who formed and or{ized tho Union of these States, and of those \

assembled h^re in 18G1 to consult upon and ]vido thc means for suppressing this great rc

hon, were as nothing in tho compariaou, andmauded certainly no higher sagacity and no brrcr wisdom than tho task of bringing back themembered states, and fusing these jarringdiscordant elements into one harmonious wholiFor this great work tho anpremo Executive

tho nation, even though bo had boen endowednature with the very highest of organiziug faeties, was obviously unfitted by tho very naturehis office. If Mr." Lincoln had survived, it isto be doubted, from his habitual deference topub'ic will, that although a citizen of a loyal Stand enjoying the public confidence in the highpossible degree, ho would have felt it to boduty to convoke tho representatives of thc poeto lay down his sword 111 their presence and tofer it to their enlightened and patriotic judgmto decide what was to bo done with tho tcrntoiand people that had boen brought under thcthorlty of the Government by our arms.The bl'joely hand of treason unfortunately mo

him away iu thc very hour of the nation's triumBut if these were reasons which could havo mi

this duty an imperative one with him, how powfully were they reinforced by thc doublo effeelthotragedy that not only deprived the nationits trusted hoad, but cast the reins of Governmupon a successor. The new President was hiself in tho doubtful and delicate position 0

citizen of ono of the revolting States which wto be summoned for judgment hoforc tho haithe American people. It was porhaps natural tlhe should sympathize with the communities frwhich lie heel mainly differed only on prudcnlreasons, or in other words, as to thc wisdomtho revolt at that particular juncture of affairs.

If other arguments had not suflio'd tn conviihim ot the necessity of referring all these gnque-tions t i the only tribunal on earth that lithe nower to decide thom, it oupht to have bcsufficient that ho owed alike his honor andaccidental powers to tho gonercus conlidenoe of tloyal States. rle expected, of course, that tbwould insist-as they had a right todo-upon su

conditions a." would secure to them, if not indenity for the past, at least tho ample»! securitiestho future. Instead, therefore, of convoking tCongress of the Uni.eel States to debberat0 upthe condition of the country, ho seems to hamade np his mind to undert.ilio that mighty t:ihimself, to forestall the judgment and tho wislof the loval people, and to neutralize thc powerundo his work by bringing in thc rubel Statthemselves to participate ra thu deliberations upvny and all questions which might be left for si

i lenient.To effect this object he issues his imperial pr

cl.limitions, beginnin? with that of thc 39thMay, in virtuo, ns ho says, ol' his double authurias President of the United Statea and commandein-chief of the armies, declaring the goverumeiiol Iheso States to have perished, creating, undtho denouini'ttion of Provisional Governors, cvoffices unknown to the law, appointing to thooffices men who wero notoriously disqualified, Ireason of their participating ba tho rebellion, froholding any office under this Government, and yallowed to bold the same and exercise the dutiithereof at salaries fixed by himself and paid outtho contingent fund of one of the department.-;clear violation ol the :icts of July 2d, 18(12. and Olot February, 1803. Dedaring, moreover, at llsame time, that the gOVCrnmen' ot these Statihad boon destroyed, he assumes it to be his 11

dividual right, as being himself tho Stato, rathetho United States, to execute tho guaranty of tl:Constitution by providing thom with new one:

and accordingly directed his pretended Gove,nors to order Conventions of such ol thc people a

it was his pleasure to indicate, lo make constiittiona for them, on such terms ¡ind with such pixvisions aa were agreeable to himself. Unprovidechowever, of courise, in thc absence of Congres!with the luiccssary resources to meet tho ei

penses of these organiz liions, he not only directtho paymont of a portion ot them out ot the con

tiugent fund of tho War Department, but withboldness unequalled even by Charles 1, when hetoo, undertook to reign without a parliament,prcvides for a deficit by authorizing tho seizure 0

property and the appropriation ol moneys belongmg to thc Government, and directing Ria Goveinor« to levy taxes for the same purpose from thsubject people.Tho further reading of the report was elis

pensed with, excepting the conclusion, as followsIn ace wdanoe with tho testimony herewith sub

nutted and tho view of tho law heroin prcMO.it.eithe committee arc of opinion that Andrew Johnson Prcaidcut of the United States is guiltv o

high crimes und misdemeanors requiring tininterposition of tho constitutional powers of thiHouse.In that upon tho final surrender of tfie rebel ar

mies, and tho overthrow of thc rebel governmenttho said Audre.v Johnson, Proaident ot tho UnitecStates, neglected to convene tho Congress of thiUnited States, that by its aid aud authority legaand constitutional measures might have' beetadopted for tho organization of loyal and cons:itutional governments in thc States' then recently hrebellion.

In that iu his prolcamation to tho people 0

North Carolina of the 29th day of May, I860, bcassumed that ho had authority' to decide whotheithe government of North Carolina, ¡md wbeiheiany other government that might beset np thereiu, was republican in form, aud that m his ohioof President it waa his Inly and within his poweito guarantee to said people a republican formolgovernment, contrary to the constitution, whicl:provides that tho United States shall guaranIea tcevery State in thia Union a republican tomi of gov¬ernment, and contrary also to a deliberate opinionof tho supreme Court, which declared that Con¬gress is invested exclusively with the power Lo dicide whether tho government of a .State; is republi¬can or not.

In that he did thereafter roo: :,' inizi and treat ti

In that he thereupon assumed to atrapt, ratifyand eoiitii i:. certain so-called constitutions, trainedby such illegal and treasonable assemblies of per-sons, which constitutions were never submitted tuthc people of thc respective States, nor ratified¡ind continued hythe United States, thus usurpingand exercising powers vested hythe Constitutionin the Congress of fcfce United Slates exclusively.In that he pardoned large numbers of publicand

notorious traitors, with the design ot receivingtheir aid in such convcntioi s called by his adviceand direction, for the purpose of organizing andsetting mi such illegal Governments 111 thc Stalesthen recently iu rebellion, prior to the annualmeeting of Congress, with the intent thus t.> con¬

strain Congress to accept, ratify and confirm suchillegal and uncontitiiufe'oncl proceedings.In that ho did within and foi tba States recent!)

in rebellion create- aud establish aa a civil office tin-office of Provisional Governor, so called, an officeunknown to the Constitution or laws of tho laud.in that he appointed to such office so created in

said States, respectively men who wero public anilnotorious traitors, hu »vc,'l knowing thar they hadbeenougaged in open, persistcni iu.d formidableefforts for thc overthrow of the government of IheUnited States, and well knowing, also, that thesemen could 11 >t enter upon the duties ot said ohiowithout committing ¿be crime of perjury, or inmanifest violation ortho laws ot the country.

General Grant's Testimony before the Ju-

( dietary Committee.

HIS OPINIONS ON PARDON AND SECONSTBCCTIOX.

General Grau t's testimony before the JudiciaryCommittee of tho House of Rei. resentatwes ispublished. Tho General says he was frequentlyin consultation with Mr. Johnson in relation to thereconstruction measures; and that ho intercededfor General Lee, and recommended the pardon ofGenerals Longstreet, French and Geo. H. Stuart.On the subject of pardons General Grant express¬ed his views as follows :

PAROLE AND PARDON.General Lee's army waa tho first to surrender,

and I believed that with such terms all the rebelarmies would surrender, and that we wouldthus avoid bushwhacking and a continuation oftho war in a way that we would make vory littleprogress with, having no organized armias tomoot.

Q. You consider that tho like torms wore givenby General Sherman to the armies which surren¬dered to him ? A. Yes, air; and to all the armiesthat surrendered ofter that.

Q. And you bela that so long as they kept thoirparole of honor, and obeyed tho laws, thev weronot subject to bc tried by courts ? A. That ia mvopinion.

I will state boro that I am not quite certainwhether I am being tiied, or who is being tried,by the queations aakod.

Mr. Eldridge-I am not trying anybody. I arainquiring as to the President's proclamation, andto tho views ho entertained. Did you givo theseviews to the President ?General Grant-I have stated those viet* s to the

President frequently, and, as I have said, he dis¬agreed with me in those views. He insisted onit that the leaders must be punished, and wantedto know when the time would come that thosepersona could bo tried. I told him wheu thevviolated their parole.Q. Did you considor that that applied to Jeffer¬

son Davis? A. No, sir, hf did not take anvparole.Q. Ho did not surrender ? A. No, sir. It ap¬

plied to no person who was captured, only tothOBe who were paroled.

Q. Did the President insist thai General Leeshould be tried for treason? A. He contendedfor it.Q. And you claimed to him that the parole

which General Lee had given would be violated insuch a trial ? A. I did. I insisted on it that Gen¬eral Leo would not have surrendered his armyand given up all their arms if he supposed thatafter surrendering he was going to be tried fortreason and hanged. I thought wo got a verygood equivalent for the lives of a few leaders inpetting all their arms and getting themselves un¬der control, bound by their oatliB to obey the laws.That was thc consideration which I insisted uponwe had received.

Q. Did the President argue that question withyou ? A. Thore waa not much argument about it.It was merely assertion.Q. After you had expressed your opinion about

it did ho coincide with von ? A. No, sir, not then.He afterward got to agreeing with mc on thatsubject. I never claimed that the parole gavetheso prisoners any political right whatever. 1thjught that was à matter e ntirely with Congress,over which 1 had no control; that, simply as Gene¬ral-in-Chief, oommanding the army, I had a rightto stipulato for tho aurronder on torms which pre¬fecto 1 thoir lives. That is all I claimed. The pa¬rolo gave them protection and exemption frompunishment for all offences not in violation of therules ot civilized warfare, so long as their parolewas kopt.General Grant then gave evidence as to the

CHANGE IN THE PRESIDENT'ti VIEWS.

Q. You stato that you differed with the Presi¬dent as to two points in the proclamation, but thathis views afterwards changed. State when thoPresident's mind changed and underwent a chongo.A. It would bo very hard, 1 reckon, to fix it, but itwas along in tho Summer of 18G5, not more thantwo or three months after tho North Carolina pro¬clamation of May 29.By Mr. Woodbridge-When I said that the

President's views underwent a change, I meantthat while I was contending for the rights whichthose rebel paroled soldiers had, be was insistingon it that they should bo punished.By Mr. Eldridge-Any correspondence I over

had with the President is official, and ."an be fur¬nished ; I bad to muko frequent endorsements ontho subject of tho rights of those paroled prison¬ers ; the only correspondence that I could havehod on tho subject of amnesty was when I recom¬mended mon for pardon, as in tho case of Frenchand others, of all of which I have kept copies andwill furnish thom. I recollect the North Carolinaproclamation, whioh WHS tho first one giving aState Govornmont ; was present when it was read,and it was in the direction I wanted ; I was anxiousto seo u temporary government there, and I didnot want to seo anarchy.Q. Did you give any opinion in favor of ttat

proposition? A. I did not give any opinionagainst it ; I waa in favor of that or anything elsewhich looked to civil government until Congresscould meet and establish governments there; Idid not want all chaos left; there and no form ofcivil govornmont whatever ; I was not in favor ofanything or opposed to anything particularly ; Iwas simply in favor of having government there ; 1did not pretend to give my judgment as to what itshould bc ; I wis perfectly willing to leave it to thecivil department ; I asked no person what 1 shoulddo in mv duties : I was willing to tako al1 tho re¬

sponsibility, and did not want to give my views osto what the civil brauch of tho government shoulddo.On tho question of reconstruction, thc General

said.,By Mr. Marshall.-Q. I understand yon to say

that you were vory anxious, at tho close of the war,that civil governments should bo established insome form, and you so advised tho President?A I stated frequently in his presence, but I ad¬vised no particular form of procooding.Q. Were you, present when this North Carolina

proclamation was read in Cabinet ? A. I wouldnot bc certain, but am of opiuiou that tho firstlimo I heard it read was in presence ot the Presi¬dent and tho Secretary of War only.Q. Did you asaeutto that plan? A. I did not

dissent from it; it was a civil matter, and althoughI was anxious to have something done, I did notintend to dictato n plan; I do not think I expressedany opinion about it at thc time; I looked upon itas simply a tomporary measure until Congressshould moot and sottlè tho whole question, andihat it did not moko much difference how it wasdone, so tbat there was u form cf governmentthore; I think 1 was present at tho timo by au in¬

vitation ol' e<thor tho President or tho Secretary ofWar; I uuppose I was free to exoiess my views; 1Buppobo tho object was that I should express myviews if I could auggctit any change; I do notthink I was asked my views; I know that if I hadbeen asked tho question, I would have as¬

sented to that or almost anything oise that wouldhavo given stable government there ; in refer¬ence to tito opinion I gove the President on theAmnestry Proclamation, I think I have testified

E'rotty fully; I told the President I disagreed withim on the clauses excluding volunteer generals,

and as to tho $20,000 clause, ( do not say anythingas to the rest of it, wnethor it was too lenient ortoo stringent; can state what I thought about it,but not what I said about it; I know that imme¬diately after tho close of tho rebellion thore waa a

vcrv fine feeling manifested iu the South, and Ithought we ought to take advantage of it as soonas possible, but sinco that thore has been an ovi-dent change there. I may have expressed myTie«! to the President, i do not recollect parti¬cularly. I do not suppoao that there were anypersona engaged iu that consultation who thoughtof what waa being done at that time as being lastinganv longer than until Congress would moot ande thor ratify that Of establish aonio other form ofgovernment. I know it never crossod my mindthat what was hoing done waa anything more thantemporary. I understood this to ho thu view ofthe President and of everybody cLso. I did notknow of any différence ol opinion on the aubject.He was very anxious to have Congreaa ratify hisviews. Mr. Lincoln, prior ti bia assassination,had inaugurated a policy intended to restore thosoGovernments. 1 was present once helore his mur¬der wnon a plan was read. The plan adopted byUr. Johnson was substantially the plan which hadbeen inaugurated by Mr. Lincoln as the basia forhis future uctiou. i do not know that it was ver-Oa'im the aaiiie. I think tho very paper which Iheard read twice while Mr. Lincoln was Presidentwas thu ono which was carried right through.Q. What paper was that? A. The North Caro¬

lina proclamation.Affaire in Mexico.

President Juarez has issued what his Secretaryof War styles an Amnesty Proclamation. Gui po-real punishment is commuted to imprisonment.Thjso who aorved as Generals and Colonels in theImperial Army are to bc imprisoned four years.Lieutenant-Colonels and commandera ol' bat¬

talions or squadrons shall be for three years underthe surveillance of tho authorities, and Captains,Lieutenant*, and Ensigns for two years.Forcignors who, as Geuerals, served thc so-

called Empire, ahall suffer the same punishmentimposed upon natives of thc »ame rank. All otherforeigners, without distinction of grade, even thecommon soldie r, ahall be sent out of the Republic.Tho Ministers und under Secretaries who signed

the décri e ol the 3d of October, lijuo, thu Regentsand Presidenta ot thu Couueil of Ministers shalllikewise be expelled the country, and tried shouldthey ever return.This evidence of moderation on thc part of

Juarez meets with thu warmest commendation ofthe Mexican people, who have grown weary of exe¬

cutions and blood. Just betöre delivering up theremains ol' Maximilian, Tejada wrote a noto to theAustrian Minister, Buest, in which he said:

In accordance with the dispositions of the Presi¬dent, I have made known to Vice-Admiral de Tege-thoil' that the mortal remains of the Archduke Ferdinatid Maximilian shall be at once delivered to hiscare, in orde. to convey them to Austria, and thusaccomplish the object of Ins mission.

FATAL Arr RAY IN CHESTER.-Wo learn that, onSunday last, a soldier, who had been ordered tucamp, "drew a pistol and fired at the guard sent toarrest him; the ahot, however, did not take effect.The fire was returned by the guard-the ball p.ias-t;.rough the soldier's body, lulling bun instantly,and mortally wounding a negro, who died Mondaynight. This affair gave rise to various rumors ofserious uihiculties Detween the soldiers and thocolored folks, but we are credibly informed that DUfnrthei disturbance occurred._L'o'.uinbia Phaniz.
