Strange Hints.

The Boston Iraveller, an intensely Rad
zeal sheet, contains the following in its is
sue of the Sd inst:
Within musket shot of Wizards Hotel
and the Treasury building at Washington
and so near the White House that a
sharpshooter with long range rifle might
throw a bullet through the brain of a trail
tor standing upon its steps-stands a mod
est brick building, which is as great an
annoyance to President Johnson as was
Mordecai the Jew to Hannah of old, because
it is a distinct and daily intimalion that
his authority is not everywhere acknowl-
edged. There is no department of the
government located there, no institution
maintained at the public cost, no array of
soldiers at the door Or upon the premises,
and yet represents power which keeps
Andrew Johnson from forcible resistance
to the laws of Congress.
The Grand Army of the Republic has
its headquarters there. The organization,
though unknown to our laws, though kept
in existence at no expense to the public,
though composed of citizens engaged in
the ordinary avocations of life, is not the
nucleus of an army to be formed when the
need of it shall arrive, but force already
in existence. with the discipline Of troops
already in the field and the experience Of a
long and hard fought war fitting them for
duty. Their services may never be requir-
ed, as the existence of the Grand Army is
a strong guarantee of peace, but it is as
fortunate for the country as it is uDpleas-
ant to Andrew Johnson, that at this trying
time in the history of this nation there is a
body of experienced soldiers, ready, when
the signal shall be given from their head
quarters, to spring forth four hundred
thousand strong, armed and willing to
meet and conquer treason in whatever new
form it may present itself.

The principal if not the only charge
which Congress is making against the Pres
ident. is, that he, in removing Stanton and
appointing a successor to him to the War
Office, violated a law of Congress known as
the Tenure of Office Law. This, stript of
all surplusage, is the precise meaning of the
indictment. There is no better ground Of
fered than the one thus plainly stated for
the conviction of the President. His crime
and misdemesnor consist of no greater Of
fsnse than the one named, il so, it is studi-
ously suppressed.
