JUDGE BENNETT'S SPEECH. DELIVERED IN THE HOUSE OF REPRE SENTATIVES JUNE 25TH ON THE MANNING CHALMERS CONTEST. (Continued.) In the case of Baker, of 111. and Yell of Arkansas, Twenty-ninth Congress, second session, found in contested election cases from 1S34 to 1865, page 92, the same principle was affirmed. Baker and Yell, after their election to Congress.i accepted commissions as colonel of volunteers for the Mexi can war The committee reported that holding this office at the time Congress convened vacated their eats in the House under the clause of the Constitution already cited. The report also took the ground that the two positions were incompatible, and under the fifth section of the first ar ticle of the Constitution, which de clares that "each House shall be the judge of the elections, returns, and qualifications of its members," it was the duty of the House to declare their seats vacant. Tho report says, on page 93: The committee believe that to hold an office in the Army of the United States is incompatible with the office of a member of Congress, and that, therefore, the two offices can not be held at the same time by the same individual; that it is against the whole theory and spirit of our gov ernment. The constitution intended that tho President should have no powet to control the action of Con gress in any respect; that it should be perfectly independent. Now, sup pose every member was a colonel in the Army in the service of the United States, and the President, who, by the Constitution, is Commander in Chief of that Army, should come into the halls of Congress, and order each member to retire immediately, under penalties inflicted for disobedience of orders, to his post in the Army, what would become of Cougress? Or sup pose, while Colonel Baker was mak ing his speech here this session as a member, the President had come into this Hall and commanded him to be silent, or retire to his regiment in Mexico? Suppose in that speech Col. Baker had spoken disrespecttully of his superior officer, the President, could he not be held responsible be fore a court martial? To eularge Upon this argument is useless. To allow the two offices to be held by the same person would utterly de stroy the independence of Congress and convert the country into a mili- tary despotism. For further illustration of this prin ciple, see the debate in the House on Febuary 5, 1847. The next case to which attention is called is that of Byington vs. Vande ver, found in same book of contested election-cases, page 395. Vaadeyer, after his election to Congress in 1860, was ou the 30th of August, 1861, ap pointed a colonel of the Ninth Regi ment of Iowa Volunteer Infantry. The committee in their report on this case say : He has no right as a Representa tive to absent himself from the House without leave, and if he does he is liable to be arrested by the officer of the House, and returned and punish ed. But he is also bound as an offi cer of the Army to be present with his regiment (perhaps a thousand miles distant), ready to execute the commands of his superior officer, and for his default is liable to punishment, it may be with death. Or his mili tary superior may take him by force from his seat and duties in the House to his poet in the Army. That such a physical impossibility as is thus created to execute the duties of both offices renders tbem incompatible would seem beyond a doubt. But there is this also in the nature of the powers incident 'to the two po sitions which renders them incompat ible: As a representative he may by his vote, repeal the law or Army reg ulation creating a duty or imposing a penalty, which, as an officer of the Army he has neglected or incurred. Or in the exercise of his right (and perhaps duty) as Representative to speak of the conduct of his superior military, officers, he might utter words for which, as an officer of the Army, the superior would have equal right to be tried by wurmartial and puni&hed.. '-' . : This reasoning fits the case of con testant perfectly. He is an officer of the Department.of Justice, commis sioned, by that Department, and by section SCO of the Revised Statutes the Attorney General may require him to perform any duty required ot the I )npn.rt mentor ntiy officer thereof. and by portion :jt he in mij-ct to cui the liab;luiw'3 imposed by iuvj uu dis trict attorney. As Representative he may, by hi voU cluine the law :c ulating his duii'.js ni a?sstant dis trict attorney, and increasing his compensation as such. He may, by his absence from the House, subject himself to arrest and penalties, and by his absence from the court in Miss issippi as assistant district attorney he may in the most critical period of such duties be taken by the Sergeant at-Arms of tho House and carried to Washington Clearly the duties of ths two places are incompatible, and the House seat is vacant. The au thorities are abundant and directly in point. The case of Delarge rs. Bowen con. firms this doctrine. Iu this case Bow en, after his election to Congress, had accepted the office of sheriff of the city of Charleston, and was in the discharge of the duties of this office when Congress convened. Tne House held the two offices incompatible, and declared the seat vacant. - The only other case that will be no ticed is that of Blair (Report 110, first session Thirty eighth Congress, pages 5 to 10). This case was heard and de termiued with that of Schenck. They were both elected to tho Thirty eighth Congress, and thereafter, and before the first session began, they were both commissioned as general officers in the Federal Army. Schenck re signed his commission in the Federal Army before the first session of Con gress began, on the first Monday in December, 1863. Blair resigned his commission tho 1st of January, 1864, in order to take his seat in the House, which had been in session about a month. The committee and tie House decided that Schenck was en titled to retain his seat, but Blair was not, and the seat was declared va cant. In the report the committee say : The authorities are clear that the mere appointment or election to office the duties of which are compatible with those of one already held, will not vacate such office. Thisi true evon iu England, where the appoint ment to office cannot ahvs be avoid ed, and where once assumed it can not, as we have seen, be always vol j untarially resigned by the incumbent. The common law has been shown to be clear that the election aloue to an incompatible office will not vacate one already held. The language of the Constitution is that "No person holding any office under the United States shall be a member of either House during his continu ance in office. The words are "shall be a member," not "shall be elected." No one can be made a member against his will. He may be elected without is consent or knowledge, for he may be in a foreign land, but to become a member he must not only be elected but he must take the oath of office. In the clause now under con sideration the language is: "No person holding any office under the United States shall be a member of either House during his continuance in office." No one doubts that the object of the constitutional inhibition was to guard the House against ex ecutive influence. This object is at tained so far as it can be by this pro vision, if the inhibition attaches the moment the member enters upon the discharge of his duties as such, uid nothing is gained by an earlier ap plication of it. But this record raises another ques tion, which, so far as the committee can learn, has not before arisen, and which it becomes necessary to exam ine. Mr. Blair was appointed a Brig adier general August 7, 1S62, and a major general November 26, 1862, the duties of which latter office he dis charged till January 1, 1864, when he tendered his resignation, which was accepted January 12, 1864. On this latter day he qualified and took his seat in the House of Representatives. The first regular session of the Thirty eighth Congress, fixed by law, com menced the first Monday iu Decern ber, 1863. It therefore appears that Mr. Blair held and discharged the duties of major-general for more than a month after the commencement of the session fixed by law of the Con gress iu which, after resigning that office, he subsequently took his seat. The only conclusion that can be drawn from the record is that Mr. Chalmers sought a position from which he was enabled to shield his partisans, and in the name of the United States persecute the friends of Mr. Manning, whose fidelity to him and the principles he represented had aroused the anger of contestant during the canvas?. He sought and obtained this posi tion, which enabled him at Govern ment expense and with the power of Government to prosecute his claim for this seat in Congress. By reason, of this position he was -enabled to summon witnesses on be half of the United States, who, when they obeyed the process, were re quired to exhibit the private corres pondence of Mr. Manning,- though not a party to the case under exam ination, lie was enabled to gain ac cess to the grand Jjury, and undo: the protection of its seer cy, and without -j;;-- i . ...... , , .

The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman has ten minutea of his time remaining. Mr. BENNETT, I fear I shall not be able to conclude my remarks wit! . in the hour, and shall probably be re quired to. ask an extension. Now, whether disqualified under the sixth clause of the first article of the Constitution by reason of his holding this Federal office, it is in sisted that under the fifth clause of the same article he should not be al lowed a seat on the floor of this House. Under the last cited section the House is the exclusive judge not only of the election but the qualification of its members. It is deemed unnecessary to corn ment on the conduct of tho contest ant. As exhibited in the record, both before and subsequent to the election, it was so bad that to give him a seat in this House would set an example and a precedent calcula ted. to sap the foundations of our rep resentative system. The committee in their report on page 2 say : To be continued. What a Woman Can Do. She can say "No," and stick ,to it.

The Independent Republican Star ot Washington, is fair enough to say : "The effort made in some quarters to put odium upon Governor Cleve land by calling him "a hangman," because two men were executed for murder in Erie county -while he was sheriff, i3 as disgraceful to those en gaged in it as it is weak and silly. The best evidence of a man's fitness for office is the fact that he properly discharges all the duties imposed up on it by law, however humble or dis tasteful they may be, and what the enemies of the Democratic candidate are trying to turn to account against him is therefore really to his credit.
