TRooPs AROUND WAsHINGToN--Itis reported
that there are now in the forts around this CITY
and between them and Baltimore some fifteen or
twenty thousand United States troops, and the
question is asked, What does this meant Some
suppose these troops were collected in view of
probable insurrection in Maryland with the late
election; some conjecture that they are intended
for Mexico; While other astrologers of the Rad-
cal stripe suspect that under President Johnson's
apparently cordial resignation to the results Of
the late election, he meditates a tremendous coup
d. etat; that the southern rebel and Northern
Copperhead organs still agitatng this thing, some
openly and Others in mask, know what they
are talking about, and Mr. Seward, when he asked
the people, on the late Chicago pilgrimage,
whether they would have Andrew johnson Sas
President or as king, hiuted at what was coming.
President johnson, they suspect, Is preparing TO
quash threatened impeachment; but they say
the boys in blue are on the qui yive. Such are
the vagaries and fears of foolish Radical fanatics
in reference to the re-assemblihg of the Thirty
ninth Congress after the late elections.-N y.
