Tub Impeachment of the President.— The Radicals are so confident of the im peachment aud removal from office of Presi dent Johnsou that they are set iously discussing the question as to the length of the term tor which bis successor will be elected. The Chicago Republican says: We recently expressed an opinion that, iu case of the removal of President Johnson by impeachment, and the election of his suc cessor by a special electiou ordered by the Secretary of State iu the mode prescribed by the act of 1st of March, 1792, section 10, that successor would hold his office only for one year, being the residue of the term to which Abraham Lincoln was elected in 18fi4. One of the best constitutional lawyers in the country, however, informs us that in his opinion the person so elected would staud ! elected for the full term of four years, and that he would in no sense be elected to fill ihe one year vacancy. Jefferson Davis^ and the Fenians.—The Toronto editors are retorting upon Mr. Sew ard for calling the Fenian prisoners ‘‘polit ical offenders,” and therefore deserving of clemency, which could not attach to crimes of a criminal character—retorting by asking such questions as these: " How has the American Government acted to wards political offenders ? At the very head of the list stands Mr. Jefferson Davis. By tho united voice of aU parties in the United States, not to say anything ol the opinion of outside nations, Mr. Davis’ continued imprisonment in Fortress Monroe is a disgrace to the country which keeps him incarcerated. Does Mr. Seward think that tho way in winch this mm lia* been treated by the Government deserves to be called "eminently humane;’’ that tho hardships, the palpa ble cruelties which.were associated with his imprison ment until within a very late period, were 6ucti as to give him the right to preach clemency to the people of another country ? ’’ LATEST FA8HMI8'1LK3?
