TaREArssnD IxPEAcHMsNr or PRESIDENT
JoHNsoS.--The Anti-&aoery Standard, OF this
city, which represents the views Of the abolition
radicals on the negro suffrage question, threat
ems the impeachment Of President John
son. Now, as it Is known that the Standard,
like Wendell Phillips, exactly Of the same
school, is as apt to blurt out all it knows as 1t
is to know the designs Of its party, we dare say
that this aforesaid threat amounts to something
more than empty declaration. In all probable
ity II covers . wide conspiracy and deliberate
design, under the idea that there will be- sufi-
cient radical majority in the new House OF Rep
resentatives to make out bin of impeachment
against President johnson, and the majority Of
two-thirds required in the Senate 10 impeach
him and eject him from the White House.
But, supposing that all this Is done, what will
these abolition radicals gain by the achieve
ment! Mr.. Foster, of Connecticut, an abolition
radical If you please, as President pro tenn. Of

son would unquestionably proclaim him their
candidate, and, under the popular conviction Of
an unjust impeachment, he would be reelected
to the head of affairs by an overwhelming ma
jority of tho popular and tho electoral vote Of
the States participating in the election.
We believe, however, that If the radical ne
gro suffrage malignants try this experiment Of an
impeachment, it will be squelched in the House

biography Of Gen. Fry.

The New York Mercury gives sketch of
General Fry. He is q native of Illinois,
thirty eight years Of age. As school boy
he was distinguished for his stupidity in
mathematics. BY and by he went to West
Point, where he graduated No. ii of his
class. He had hard work to satisfy his
father that was better number than No. |.
The war found him on Mcdowell staff, at
Bull Hun, where no mathematical talent
being necessary, he did good service and ran
well.
Next, he was with Gen. Mcclellan, who,
being mathematician, couldn't get along
with him, and sent him to Gen. Buel. He
was at the battle of Shiloh. In the heat OF
the fight, an officer rode up to him and said.
Gen. Buel wants you to inform him how
many men there are in the two brigades
yoIdcr.
Fry knew how many men there were in
each, but was utterly unable to tell how
many there were in BOTH At length, after
many repeated efforts, he gave a yell of
mingled shame, despair and defiance, and
dashed straight at the enemy, to vent his
rage upon them. His men followed him to
save him; the enemy, seeing Fry coming,
turned tail, and the victory was won.
For this achievement he was promoted to
his present position. Lincoln appointed
him as a sort ofpractcal joke.
II know that Fry don't know anything
about figures said Abe, "but that office
will be lirstra place for him to learn.
Fry, however, is very slow learner.

Nevada, the silver States.

The two United States Senators from
Nevada, "a State with Il population not eX-
cecdng onc-th third Of that Of the city of Bal
timorc but, nevertheless, said to be full of
slyer-are lccturing in the North upon the
resources Of that new State. They give
glowing accounts Of their sivcry region, and
their rich region, and Senator Stewart, in
particular, is not only glowing, but specific,
in detail of mines, mills, quantities, &c.-
But three things, he says, are wanted tol
the dcvclopcmcnt Of the region and the
production of untold quantities Of the pre-
cious metals These are, labor, capital anC
the Pacific railroad. The Senator thought
that the national debt would be found to be
IA mere bagatcllc, and its payment the cas
est thing iu the world, if but 1.-THE of tho
national energies were directed to the de
volopcmcnt Of our gold and silver-b bearing
Territories. But it is well to remind tn,
Senator that it is not merely the prcciou,
metals which constitute wealth. Neither
men nor States can subsist wholly upon
such production. Other developemcnt and
other productions must keep pace with it,
These silver mines are, Of course, dcs-
tined to be duly felt and regarded in the ag-
grcgatc of national wealth, and their prod
ucts, to Il CONSIDERABLY extent 90 into the
mass of exports, like the other produce of
the country, to offset mportations and in
dcbtcdness, and form a medium of ex-
change; but they will not do more, or aS
much toward paying the national debt as
will many other mines and industries
