ENGLISH VIEWS OF IMPEAoHaENT.-TheE Eng
lish papers discuss the impeachment OF Presi-
dent Johnson with deep interest. The arlsto-
cratic journals see in the event an approzima-
ton to the English principle Of government
by class rule through the Legislative branch,
and the overthrow of the written restrictions
and limitations Of the constitution. The
London Shipping Gazette says:
The Republican party are determined to let
nothing stand in the way of their policy. Find
ing that the Reconstruction bill has been lost
in Alabama in consequence Of an insufficient
number of electors having. voted for it, the
Senate has passed a supplementary bill by
which bare majority will now be sufficient.
This will have the effect Of putting the gov
ernment of the Southern States entirely into
the hands of the negroes, and in that way all
these States may be, brought back into the
Union, aud the Republicans may, by the help
of the negroes, once more obtain the majority
in Congress of which they have been deprived
by the recent elections in the North. This, OF
course, is nothing less than revolution, a
coup detat perpetrated without bloodshed.

IMPEACHMENT IN LrBERIA.-Our correspon-
dent in the black mans republic on the coast
OF Africa informs us that Chief Justice E. j.
Roy, well known as the oldest shipping mer-
chant and wealthiest man in Liberia, has been
impeached for maladminlstration Of his judi
cial duties, and Mr.. C. L. Parsons appointed
in his place. Judge Roy's crime, as we are in
formed consisted in decision of a case insolv-
ing seizure Of an English vessel for trading
between the ports of the republic without a
license. The law exacts confscation, and the
judge affixed pacuniary value to this penalty
authorizing the discharge of the vessel on the
payment Of given SUNNI. T. Jour. CJna.

The CHRISTOPHER PLAGUE IN TEXAs.-The
Galveston News Of March 11th says: Our ex-
changes from the interior speak OF the appear
anee Of grasshoppers in great numbers. Mr.
Drake, from La Grange, says he never saw
They are now very small, not half as large as
a common fly, but seem to cover the whole face
of the earth. In passing through timbered
woods the noise they make upon the leaves
resembles that Of narrowing snow" falling in
small, light globules the size OF bird shot, A
private letter from Bastrop says the whole
country is covered with them in countless
numbers. What is to be the result seems to
be o matter of mere conjecture. Some think
their early appearance affords hope that they
will disappear also early, and perhaps before
they may have done much damage to vegeta-
ton. It is indeed distressing that we are thus
threatened with the destruction of what little
our people are trying to make TO subsist upon,
after the loss of nearly all they had.

WASHINGTON, D. c., March %, 1868.

STARVATION OF THE ENGLISH PooR.-On
the 9Th of this month, an inquest was held, in
the Holloway road, on the bodies Of two boys,
of five and seven years of age, both of whom
had died of starvation. The parents OF these
children were quite respectable mechanics.
About a year ago the fathers health failed him
and he lost his work as whitesmith, which
had brought him in comfortable wages But
the elder children earned enough 10 pay the
rent and leave about three shilllngs week
over. They had been long living at starving
rate. But the whole house was kept by the
mother in such good order that the parish sur
geon said, ''Yon might have eaten your food
from the boards; everything VAS beautifully
clean.' The two boys were seized with convul-
sions, one after another, and after their death
the surgeon made an examination OF their
bodies, and found that Their iutestines were
completely empty, and that they died Of con-
vulsions, the effect of starvation. The poor
laws do not keep the poor from starving.

States having little interest, however, in

the heroism of Virginia. One circumstance
that marked the anniversary was the pre-
