Rhode Island Republican

The documents, which have been procured by the committee appointed to enquire into the conduct of Judge Chase will be found interesting: from them may be collected a statement of circumstances; which having been heretofore published only in the newspapers, has been considered unworthy of credit, but being now delivered by gentlemen of different politics on their oaths or affirmations, we shall no longer hear its veracity questioned: It is deemed impossible but that the evidence given, even in the case of Fries; will warrant not only the impeachment recommended, but the full exercise of the constitutional powers of Congress in punishing; but the conduct of Judge Chase at Richmond and in Delaware appears from testimony to have equalled, if not surpassed, that in this State, and it is therefore probable that the articles of impeachment will comprise charges of crimes and misdemeanors committed in each instance. This time, which was employed by the committee of enquiry, was necessarily so long that we presume no decision can be made at this session of the legislature. but it is probable the articles of impeachment may be drafted and submitted for consideration.--As the Judge is a favorite with his party, no doubt every effort will be employed in congress, if without the hope of his being acquitted, at least to raise a clamour out of doors.

We have been favored with a pamphlet containing the evidence collected by the committee of enquiry relative to the official conduct of Judge Chase. It relates to his arbitrary conduct on the trial of Fries-on the trial of Callender-at New-Castle detaining the Grand-Jury to Search for a file of Wilmington papers for seditious publications-on the trial of Cooper--and his seditious address to the Grand-Jury at Baltimore.

The whole of this evidence occupies an hundred & twenty three duodecimo pages, and of course is too lengthy to be given entire in a weekly paper, we shall extract the most material parts on each point, and lay before our readers next week.
