The Washington Chronicle is enraged at the
release of Mr.. Jefferson Davis. and denounces
the proceeding. 1t declares, however, that
''the whole matter was arranged in Washing
ton-that it is not the work Of the judicial au-
thorities--but Of Andrew Johnson and his legal
adviser. under whom these authorities were
acting &c. But then, does not the Chronicle
see, that in this shifting the responsibility, it
is placing the judicial authorities" in the
nnenviable predicament of being the mere
supple tools Of the executive? Surely this is
not intended by the Chronicle! The whole
article Of the Chronicle is very vindictive, and

UNDERwooD's CHARGE. : Washington May
e.-Tbe recent charge of Judge Underwood to
the Grand Jury of the Circuit Court for the
Richmond district is here pronounced a most
Improper assault upon the social condition OF
The people Of that unfortunate city. Reverdy
johnson characterizes it as outrageous, and
declares that the Judge should be impeached.
He says that if the President We're to make a
speech one half az unbecominp his official posi-.
ton as these remarks are to the judicial bench
he would have the impeachera after him at
once and he does not hesitate to say that if
the President should use language anywhere
nearly approaching this charge in coarseness
and v~nlgarity he would himself vote against
him On tie Impeachment question. These
seem to be the sentiments of the general pub
lie. Correspondent NeU York Herald.
