STANTON BETWEEN TWO FIRES

Meanwhile Fesssnden, Trumbull, and
other Republicans, who foresee the damage
TO their party by espousing the cause of
the sneak and spy Stanton, have entreated
that individual to resign, and on the other
side, Senators Howard, Chandler, Sumner,
Ben Butler, and other Jacobins, insist on
his keeping his place. There are rumors
that he will resign, but they are without
foundation.

EFFECT OF IMPEACHMENT UPON THE
PRESIDENT.

There will be no formal suspension of
the President, but it is held in Republican
circles that from the moment he is formal
ly impeached, his position toward Congress
is that of prisoner toward Judge and
jury, and that they can have no legislative
communication with him while the trial is
in progress. the President will then be
tabooed by Congress much the came as

More Conspiracies.

We have the intimstion from England that
an attempt to assassinate the q ueen has bee n
made. Some parties, as the world is already
informed, were captured upon the threshold o
the Queens palace, with their weapons In
their hands. The cable does not furnish any
particulars, and only informs US that two OF
three persons supposed to be concerned in the
contemplated murder have been captured.
The event may have some political slgnih
canoe, and we shall be able on the arrival o.
the mails to learn more about 1t. Should any
such event ever occur as the sudden taking OF
of this amiable Queen, the world will deplor,
II, on more accounts than one; but, especially
on one account, all may join in the prayer
"God save the Queen" as her demise accord
ing to present appearances will raise to the
throne of England that dissolutc young scion

Decentralization OF Delegates to

WILMiSGToS, DEL, April 2+-The Republic
can State Convention of Delaware met at Do
yer yesterday. Delegates were present from
all the counties The following delegates were
elected to Chicago: Joshua T. Head, Lewis
Thompson, r. b. Smithers, Thomas b. Cour.
sey, q. ]. Layton, and Isaac ]. Jenkins. The
resolutions adopted nominate Grant and in
dorse impeachment Two of the resolutions
are as follows:
g. That we approve the plan adopted by Con.
gress for the reorganization Of the rebel
States; that Its vital principle, impartial suf-
frage, is just and wise; and that in view OF the
action of Congress, already had, as we'll as OF
this natural justice, we express the hope tn at
such an amendment of the Constitution Of the
United States VAL be made as will secure the
application Of the principle throughout the
Republic.
4. That we give our voice to and pledge our
assistance in the maintenance OF national
faith and credit, insisting that in the payment
Of the debt the spirit OF contract shall be truly
and honorably observed.
The third resolution was warmly discussed,
Edward G. Bradford, Howard NJ. Jenkins, and
others supporting 1t, and Hon. N, b. Smithers,
Major Lahand, and others, opposing. Finally
it was adopted amid great enthusiasm and
cheering by the test vote Of rs to3 81.

NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT.

Charles Dickens, who 10 an accurate observer
OF men and things, was especially struck, while
in this country, with the marvellous changes
which have been wrought in respect to our
national growth and development during the
period which has elapsed between his arst and
second visit to this country-a period Of some
quarter Of a century. He did not hesitate to
sneak freely of the changes, though he was
somewhat lost to account for them.
There may be, and doubtless are, various
reasons for this rapid advancement; but the
chief one, in our judgment, Is the facilities
which our railroads have afforded for the trans
action OF business.
We cannot, at this moment, put our hand
upon any statistics which go to show the pro
gress which has been made through the in
creased advantages which railways have fur
nished during each decade for the last thirty
years, though we cannot doubt that such sta.
tistical information would establish the fact
that the growth of our cities and the develop
ment Of our resources are largely and mainly
owing to the INSTRUMENTATION with varioui
and different parts ofthe land which have beer
supplied by railways. Not only have all oul
material interests been vastly promoted by
these means of transportation, but the future
10 most promising in results that, were we tc
state them to-day, would be considered but
little short Of fabulous.
In this connection we can only state single
fact, which Of itself illustrates and enforcei
the view we are endeavoring to establish
Take one single statement in respect to linei
of railway running into Chicago, or between
this point and the Mississippi river. In 1854
the receipts OF these lines amounted to 81, 200,
oOo In 1866, they amounted to over $50 900 900
thus it will be seen, that in twelve years Their
is an increase Of more than twenty-four fold.
Chicago is to-day the great focal point o
Western trade, and we may predict that befor
the expiration of another thirty years, tn
trade OF the great west and Northwest will
be almost too large for computation. So W
go. National growth and development is on
manifest destiny.
