RADICAL THREATS.

The Chicago Tribune advisGs the Revolu-
tionary leaders at Washington that ''the le-
gislation Of Congress should, we believe, be
conducted firmly, faithfully, and inflexibly
with view to hedge him in with law, so
that he cannot evade it, and to remove him
from his Office if he attempts to break
through or defy it." 1t compares the atti-
tude of the President to that of Charles |.
in his intended conflict with the Parliament
and people of the Union" 1t is the fate of
Charles l. that it fortells.
Here is another obscure threat from high
source:

WHAT DOES 1T MEAN?
We understand that the Hon. Mr.. Boutwell,,
who Is at home for short period. said on Satur-
day last, in conversation with friend, that the
situation is so perious we need not be surprised If
two months. Has Mr.. Boutwell, any information
which the public do not possess? he is on the
Committee Of Fifteen. Does it form part of the
programme of that Committee TO precipitate hos

Garrison who proclaimed the Constitution
a compact with hell and a league with death,
speaks of the "powers of help rallying tc
the support of the President, calls Seward
"fallen Lucifer" and Raymond Secessionist.

THE PRESIDENTS SPEECH.
Who constituted the great body of the crowd
that marched TO the White House on Thursday
last and drew from him that speech, which for Its
indecency, bombast, malignity and reasonable
leaning, there no words fifty to characterize,
and for which, with other weighty reasons, he
ought TO be indicted by that grand inquest, the
United States House of Representatives, tried by
the Senate, and, for the peace and safety of the
country, dismissed from Office. Loud and long
ap2lause.J tt
Correspondence Of the Rochester Democrat
As we spring round the circle to use Mr.
Johnson's own figure, there lies, within the range
of his vision, and among the not very remote
contingencies of the future, determination to
bring about the success of his policy in the return
Of the rebels to power, even though 1t has 20 BIO
done by force, and shall produce bloodshed.
The people may well arouse TO this. johnson
IS neither Tyler nor Buchanan. He has enough
of malignant force, passion and will to make a
half dozen of either. Even were 1t not so, his
treachery surrounds him with men animated with
the wicked spirit that revolution can evoke and
cultivate.
We stand in dangerous times, Lee entrenched
on Arlington Heights would not be so much an
object of dread as is Andrew Johnson in the White
House. Then we should have had the loyal States
and the Government united. Now, the fear Is OF
division under the executive leadership.
