This essay covers the impeachment-conviction power. The Senate, and neither the House nor the Supreme Court, is the “tribunal sufficiently dignified” and “sufficiently independent” to render the sentence of “perpetual ostracism from the esteem and confidence and honors and emoluments of his country” for official “POLITICAL” misconduct.

This power does not 1) violate the doctrine of the separation of powers, 2) “give to the government a countenance too aristocratic,” or produce a conflict of interest with the Senate-Executive 3) appointment power, or 4) treaty making power.

This second longest essay in The Federalist contains twenty-four paragraphs.

He then turns in 13-15 to 3) the location of the seat of government. An “extraordinary” objection is 4) “the want of some provision respecting the debts due to the United States.” This is covered in 16. He turns, finally, in 17- 24, to the claim that 5) “the adoption of the proposed government would occasion a considerable increase of expense.”
