We have some very curious and suggestive information from Washington, touching a re- radical scheme embracing the impeach. ment and removal of President Johnson, and the advanoemeat pro tempore of Mr. Stanton, tho displaced Secretary of War, to the White House, The programme contemplated is said to be this:—Mr. Stanton will first resign as Secretary of War, and next Mr. Cameron, of the same State—Pennsylvania—will resign his seat in the Senate, in order that Governor Geary may fill this vacancy by the appoint- ment of Mr. Stanton, Mr, Wade is then to resign a3 President of the Senate, in order that Mr. Stanton may be put into his place. Next, President Johnson is to be impeached and de- posed, and then, under the existing law of Congress, under the authority of the constitu- tion, Mr. Stanton, as President of the Senate, will take the place of “the man at the other end of the avenue.” Mr. Wade will then be re-clected President of the Senate, and Mr. Cameron, to fill the vacancy lef. by Mr. Stanton, will be restored to the Senate. Now, like the famous quarrel eontrived by Sir Lucius O'Trigger, thie is a very pretty affair ee it stands, and it is almost a pity to spoil it. As & compromise emong the repub- lican Presidential aspirants and cliques, it is sufficiently plausible to justify the suspicion that there is something in it. Recent events have so fur strengthened the impeachment faction that the removal of Mr. Johnson seems now to be regarded as a necessity and as the common purpose of all shades of the republi- ean party. But the alternative of “ Old Ben Wade” is a serious difficulty among those Con- gressional managers who have other axes to grind. The ultra radical and intractable Wade in the White Housg, like a bull in a china shop, may smash up their crockery and spoil their calculations. Assuming, however, that Mr. Wale is, after all, only a sort of good min Friday to Chief Justice Chase, and that Chase for the next Presidency is the real object of all these nice arrangements, the caso becomes very simple and easy of explanation. The suspended Secretary of-War, asa martyr in the cause of Congress, must have his re- ward. His wounds must be healed, and his claims cannot safely be disregarded. A few months in the White House, under the scheme proposed, will doubtless satisfy him and got him nicely out of the way in reforence to the main contest of the succession. In the next place, noither Cameron nor Wade will lose anything in playing their part in this beautiful game ; for, with its consummation, each will be, as he was before, in the Senate, with the addition of a first class olafm, first upon the party, and next upon Mr. Chase, in the event of his nomination and election to the Presidency next fa‘. For example, Mr. Came- ron, with Mr. Chase and Mr. Seward, after having failed as competitors against Abraham Lincoln in the republican convention of 1860, were, after his election, the first among his Cabinet appointments. Failing again in 1861, as a candidate against Lincoln, Chase was re- warded for his services with the office of Chief Justice. So, then, Cameron, Wade and half a dozen other Presidential rivals may be con- ciliated, in view of the contemplated settle- ment of the approaching contest. This whole plan, therefore, involving Johnson's impeach- ment and Stanton’s promotion temporarily to his place, if we rest it upon the main idea of Chase for the succession, becomes a beautiful and feasible plan from the beginning to the end. There is, however, this unfortunate weakness hanging to it: the parties in this scheme, as- suming that auch a scheme has been projected, have been reckoning without their host. They are playing Hamlet with the part of Hamlet left ont. We dare say, too, that the leading radical managers in the interest of the Chief Justice are flattering themselves that General Grant bas so far committed himself as to be entirely subject to thelr good will and pleasnre. We will venture to say, however, that General Grent’s superior claims to the Presidential suc- cession will not be so easily net aside or posi- poned, but that in all probability, from the developments of Southern reconstruction, and of the approaching elections in Pennsylvania, New York and elsewhere, west of Vermont, all the radical schemes and schemers against Grant will be upset by the meeting of Con- grese. President Johnson himself, in working harmoniously with Grant, may still flank the impeachment faction, and utterly defeat all their plans and expectations dependent upon his removal from office. For the present we are inclined to believe that how they are to get rid of Wede asa substitute for Johnson is the first and leading question with the republi- can managers at Washington, if they have not virtually agreed upon the aforesaid compro- mise between him and Stanton and Cameron. Native Dramatle Talent=Mrs, Lander. For many years the stage was a foreign in- tiltution In our midst, and native talent found no favor in the glare of the footlights. We had theatrical establishments ready orgauized sent from London to order, as they send ready made houses to the South Sea islands, w ranted to be available for use baif an hour after their arrival. Companies, scenery, proper ties, plays, were stowed away In steamers with more than Chinese ingenuity, to develop tinsel splendor for our astonished eyes. In those days all the trashy theatrical material thal was hissed from the boards of the British cities was voted good enough for us—jast us more re- cently we have endured the infliction of all the opera singers that Raropean andiences bad sent to limbo. Indeed, there are still man- agers who conduct their establishments on this principle and furnish their audiences the refuse of European theatres in respect both to pley- ers and playe—operas and singers; but they are fossils, Managers with braius have gotten over the delusion that they must make their | yearly pilgrimage io Durope ter actors and actresses, and the time may come when we shall not see two managers disputing in court for the right to perform # little English play, which play, if it had been written by s nat author, they would have kept in their closets twice seven years rather than pay the author's e copyright. it relates to plays, we must walt; bat the change in relation to players has already taken pisee, Americaa talent, as [tf now taker to the theatre freely for a sphere’of effort, hos made itself felt and appreciated there.

The expense of the Convention is not less than five thousand dollars a day; consequently its labors up to to-day will cost the people of thy Stale very nearly half a million of dollars, Although « | resolution has been adopted for a flaal ad journment on the 10h of this month, it ts well knowp that the work already marked out | cannot be completed before the latter part of | October, and yet day after day we read im the Albany reports of the proceedings, “a0 quorum present,” aad the §=Coavention therefore adjourned. Now, by what right do the mombers of the Convention accept the ofice of delegate aud draw their pay, and then reuse to attond to their duties? Out of one hundred and ninety- two members elected, it is seldom that ninety are present. Those that do attond are making ® complete boicl of their work, In their efforia to render the fundamental law aubservient to individual and party interests, The oaly amendments to the present constitution de- sired by the people, or required for the in- torests of (be State, were in the judiciary aystem, the power of the Governor and the goveru- ment of municipaltties. These three pvinis, with a suffrage extension clanse submitied a+ 4 separate question, would have satisfied the people and benefiied the Stat. The Conven- tion should have confined its labore to these, and havé touched.no others, Asit is, it would seem asif the majority of the Convention do- sired to turn the constitution into an instreu- ment for the promotion of party interesty and the protection of lobby rights, and designed affording the people of the State as littl: tims as possibla to examine their work before the November election. ‘The safest thing the people can do, If the new constitution Is kept back until the eve of the election, is to tie Puritanism, niggerivm, Sunday laws and lager beer pro! ion round ity neck, and let them all go to the bottom together. The Alabama e+ The Alabama claims have again been forced upon the attention of the public. The British Foreign Office have issued a blue book con- taining the entire correspondence which has taken place on the subject between the government of Great Britain and the govern- ment of the United States. Once the contents of this book are fully known tu us, we shall be in a better position to decide upon their merits, and to give an opinion of the statesmanship which has been displayed on either side, in the course of the correspondence. From the late :t despatch in the collection—a despatch ad- dressed by Lord Stanley, the British Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, to Sir Frederick Bruce, the British Minister at Washingtou—it appears that Great Britsin “is willing to sub- mit the claims of American citizens for dim- ages caused by the Alobams, and all other s{milar demands on the part of the United States, to a Commission of Arbitration, if the claims of British subjects against the Cuited States for losses suffered daring the late war of rebellion are likewise submitted to the decision of the same Commission.” The proposal seems both reasonable anit | just. We have had years of correspondence, Dut #0 far aa we can see the correspondence does not seem io hive brought the question very much wearer a practical solation. The | correspondence may go on forever with the same result, unless some such proposal as this is agreed to. There is but small likelihood of ; Great Britain ever consenting to pay the Ala- bama claims right down at the simple demand of our government. Some neutral party mu- tually tixed upon by the interested pa: must first interfere, and, giving voice to pu opinion on the ground of international right, declare that the claims are valid. To ma minds on both sides of the Atlantic the case appears simple and easy of solution, The so- lution, however, is not in every case same. One class of minds, by an eas arrives at one solution ; anotier clas of minds, hy an oqually esty proce the process, , arrives at anotier | solution, The solutlons may he natural enough to the minds that gave them birth, but they are different, and it ie becanee they are diff e ent, and cannot but be different, the the intervention of a third and iyapartiol party is necessary. Ina matter of this sort it is ae absard as it is undignified for two great ua- tioos—nations whom Providence bas played in the van of civilization —to stand bullying each | other like two big but unreasonable sciool- } we «ay bora, U our claims are good, let us have faith io them.

Twenty nations of Europe and Amerioa were repre- seared.

The proposed reform will be laid before Congress, probably, next session. Now, while we admit the inconvenience of the present system, or rather want of system, emong commercial nations, and think that a naliorm one is desirable, this country should be careful about entering into and binding tself to » plan lke thic, It may be many years befoxe we return to spocie pryments, col it is possible we may yot discover that gold is not the best money or circulating medium.
