Threatened IMPes Chment of President


The And-SlaveTy Standard, Of this
city, which represents the views of The
abolition radicals on the negro suffrage
question, threatens the impeachment of
President johnson. Now,ss il is known
tina; The Standard, like Wendell Phillips.
exactly of me same school, is as sp, 10
blurl out all il knows as il is 10 know the
designs OF lis party, we dare say that Ihls
aforesaid threat amounts TO something
more than empty declaration. In all
probability il covers w0e conspiracy
aud deliberate design, under the idea
that there will be sufficient radical ma
i0rily in The new House Of Representa-
yves TO make out d bill OF impeachmen'
against President Johnson. and the ma
jority Of two-Ihrds required in The SEN
ate to inpeach him and eject him from
the WhIte House.
But, supposing that all this is done.
what will these abolition radicals gain by
the achievement Mr.. Foster, of Con-
necGcul,au abolltion radical if you please,
as President pro tenn of the Senate be-
comes by law Of Congress, in conform
ity with the Constitution, President pro
ten. OF the United States. He will hold
this position until the Secretary Of State
can make the necessary arrangements for
the election Of q President by the people
in the regular way. For tins election the
friends OF Andrew johnson would un-
quesHonably proclaim him their csndi-
date, and, under the popular conviction
Of an unjust impeachment, he would DO
reelected 10 the head of affairs by an
Overwhelming majority OF the popular
and lhe electoral vote OF he States parlic-
iDalIng in the election. We believe, how
ever, that if lhe radical negro suffrage ma
lignanIs Try this experiment OF an i'm
peachment, it will be squeIched in the
House and in a very summary manner;
for no man, however malignant rs fac
ZIONIST he may be, can shut his eyes 10
the fact that Andrew Johnson in his poll
cv OF Southern restoration is giving great
satisfaction to The masses Of the people,
regardless Of parties, North and South.
Accordingly, we have only 10 say to tho
abolition malcontents threatening this i'm
peachmenl of President Johnson that we
DO not believe they will be sufficiently
fool hardy 10 try the experiment. Let
Them try it, if they dare.-New York
Herald.
