IMPEACHMENT
The proceedings in the trial of the Impeachment have been confined since
our last to the delivery of arguments, pro and con, by the Managers and
counsel. Mr. Boutwell, on the part of the Managers, began his argument on April 23,
continuing it until the middle of the session on April 24. Mr. Nelson, of the
Presidents counsel, followed, and on April 25 Mr. Groesbeck for the same side
delivered a brief but able argument in defense of the Presidents course. Mr. Stevens
attempted to read his speech on April 27, but his voice failing him, Mr. Butler concluded
it for him. He was followed by Mr. Williams.Articles
