THE THREATENED IMPBACHMENT. The crazy idea of attempting the impeach- Ment of the President, if ever seriously con- templated by the extremists, has been aban- doned by all but Wendell Phillips and Gen. Ben F. Butler. Itis denied now on bebalf of Hon. Jobn A. Bingham, of Ohio, that he ever made use of the threat to move the impeach- ment of the President at the approaching ses- Sion of Congress, except provisionally in case the President should officially assert what it was alleged he bad unofficially proclaimed, that Congress was an illegal body unlawfully assuming the functions of legislation. The fact is that even the bitterest of the extreme men find the project of attempted impeachment of the President on purely partizan grounds so untenabie that they are glad to abandon it, or toexpiain away their advocacy of it into the Merest generalities. THE PAYMENT OF SOLDIERS DETAILED AS CLERKS. Inquiries having been made as to whether enlisted men employed in constant duty a. clerks im the Adjutant General’s and Quarter- master's offices are entitled toreceive the extra compensation provided for by General Order No. 79, 1586, and if so entitled trom what fund they are to be paid, the proper accounting offi- cerofthe Treasury has replied that it is the prerogative of the War Department to say ‘when 8 soldier isemployed within the mean- ing of the sctof July 13, 1566, and that Depart. ment having designated no clerical duty as coming within the act except that “at the Bu- reans of the War Department, at the headquar- ters of the army. and at military divisions or Gepartment headquarters,” ro other will be Tecognized as entitling the soldiers to extra. uty pay. Soldiers when employed at all as Clerks are to be paid at the highest rate. G7 The Methodist Episcopal Conference (South) in session at Norfolk on Saturday ap- Ppomted a committee to attend the Baitimore Conference of the same division of the Church, Zor the purpose of forming a Conference from the territory occupied respectively by these bodies. A long debate was had on the propo- sition to drop the word “South” from the name of tae Church.

The New York papers we see are cautioning in New York city, telling them that the labor market there is overstocked, business dull, and maultitudes of workmes are discharged, while the rate of wages is falling. We feel ita duty to give the same warning to persons coming to Washington in quest of employment. Ia our long experience in the newspaper business we have never berore known so many persons out of employment in this city, A lsrge portion of the floating Population brought here by the war still linger long after the demand for their labor has ceased, and jostie each other for a livelihood in all the trades, and in @ fierce contest for the smallest governmental office. Descending the gocial scale, we bave some thirty thousand col- oTed people, contrabands, &c., Seeking employment here, of whom it is safe to eay that twenty thousand will not average a day's work in a week during the coming win. ter. The poor-house is already overfiowing and unable to afford a shelter for theswarms of vagrants and houseless ones afloat upon our streets, and Heaven only knows what will become of the thousands of the unemployed here when the severity of winter comes upon us.

Returns received at the General Land Office show that during October 40,533 acres of the public lands were disposed of at Tonia, Michi. gan, and 13,632 a6 Brownsville, Nebraska: to- ‘al, 54,470 acres, The greater portion of the lands was located with Agricultural Uoliese scrip and taken up for actual settlement under the homestead act.
