Respectfully,
LEWIS MORGAN.

g@, In the House of Repre-
sentativcs, Monday, 7th inst, Mr..
Ashley, of Ohio, preferred charges
against President Johnson, with a
view to his impeachment, which
were referred to the Judiciary
Committee-ayes, 100; nays, As.
The complaints were gotten up
for political effect, and will result
in-nothing. Northern Radical
papers deprecate the movement,
and such intensely Radical Sena-
tors as Grimes denOunce the eff
fort as silly. He says it would be
kicked out of the Senate on the
first day. Nevertheless, the move
ment is having a disastrous effect
in commercial circles. The New
York World says:
The Threatened impeachment
of the President Of the United
States, and the hostile views of
the Secretary of the Treasury and
Congress in regard to the future
financial policy Of Government,
are unsettling mercantile conf
dence to an extent injurious, and
perhaps dangerous, to the best in
erests of the nation.

A New York dispatch says the

FORCING UPON BoSTONIANS THEIR
OWN PRINCIPLEs-The Republic
cans of Boston elected their Mayor
by only l,5O0 majority. The Re-
publicans claim the full Board of
Aldermen, though in a few instan-
ces the vote is very close, and may
require the official count. A large
majority of the Councilman and
other city officers elected are Re-
publicans.
1t appears that
A colored man and a white
man have an equal number'of votes
for the Common Council in one of
the negro wards. Democrats and
Lishmen roted for the negro, aohiie
the Republicans ooted against him"
The Republicans, it seems, do not
like to have their own Negro Equal
ity principles carried out, while
the Democrats would enforce their
principles upon them.

The Snow Storm in the
North.

Our advices by mail bring us
more detailed accounts of the eX-
tent and severity of the snow
storm which prevailed through
out the North during Christmas
week. Our Albany New York;
exchanges say:
The storm of yesterday and
last night is the most severe we
have had in this locality since
1885. The snow fell to the depth
oil twelve inches, and the wind
blew "a gale all night, creating
immense drifts, in some cases eight
or ten feet in depth. The gale
continues this morning, and new
drifts are forming rapidly. Rail-
road communication is entirely
suspended. The trains due here
On the Central Railroad at 4:3O
yesterday afternoon, ran into a
snow drift at West Albany, and
could not be extricated. An eff
fort was made to reach the train
from this city. Six locomotives
and two coaches were sent out,
but they could not proceed beyond
the city bounds A large gang OF
men were employed to shovel
away the SNOW, but every effort
proved futile. The gale was Sc
terrific that the men were com.
pletely covered up in the drifts.
During the night two other passen'
ger trains and four or five freight
trains succeeded in reaching West
Albany, but could proceed no far.
ther The snow was piled up
higher than the locomotives, and
attempts to eXtricate them by
shoveling proved useless. Early
this morning, two locomotives and
two coaches were sent out to the
relief of the snow-bound trains
After almost superhuman exer
tons success crowned their efforts
and the passengers, who had beer
spending the night i'll the drifts OF
snow, were released and brought
to this city, pretty well chilled
and with most voracious appetites
No trains have been sent out OF
any of the railroads since last eve
ming, nor have any reached thi
city from any quarter. The drifts
on the Boston road are said to b.
enormous.
Along the Hudson River roa(
there are great embankments OF
snow, and several trains are snow
ed under. Nearly all the tele
graphic wires between this city
and Buffalo are down, and thoss
that have withstood the storm
work very badly. The storm il
now raging with great severity a
the West, accompanied by heavy
gale. The snow is drifting badly
and railroad communication may
be interrupted for some time. A
dispatch from Syracuse says al
eastward bound train is imbeddeC
in large snow-drift.
