It | ‘Will be seen that it is of the most important character, and fully sustains the belret enter- tuined that it embodied a warm protest trom | General Grant agsinst that removal. The letzer of General Grant remonstrating against the removal of Secretary Stanton does not ap- pear in this correspondence, though reference is made to it in the correspondence. It is unders‘oed that the letter of General Grant ppressed on the ground that it is marked “Private” President Johnson to General Grant.

I beg thattheir voice may be beard. General Sheridan has performed his civil dutes faithfully and in- telligently. His removal will only be re- garded a an effort to defeat the laws of Von. gress. It will be interpreted by the uare. construciea element in the Soutb,those who did ail they could to break up this Govern. ment by arms. and now wish to be the only ele- ment consulted as to the metliod of restoring order as a triumph. It willembolden them to renew opposition to the will of tne loyal masses, believing that they have the Ex- ecutive with them. The services of Gen. ‘Thomas in batiling for tae Union entitle aim to some consideration. He has repeatedly en- tered bis protest against being assigned to either of the five military distrtct and especial. ly to being assigned to relieve Gen. Sheridan. General Hancock ough not to be removed from where he is. His department is a complicated one which wil! take a new commander some tume to become acquainted with. There are | military reasons, pecuniary reasons, and above all patriotic reacons way this order should not be insisted on. I beg to refer to a jetter marked private, which U wrote to the President when first consulted on the subject of the change in the War Department. It bears upon the subject of this removal, and I had hoped would bave prevented it. 1 have the honor to be, with great respect, your obedient servant. U, S. Grant, General U.S. A. @nd Secretary of War ad interim. President John J n to Gen. Grant. Execvtiv® Maxsrox, Washington. D. C., Avgust!y, 1:67 —GenenaL I have received JORT communication of the 19th inst. and tbauk you tor the promptness with which you Ave submitted your views respecting the as- riemments directed in my order of that date. When ! statedin my unofficial note of the 17th tbat I would be pleased to hear any sugges lions you might deem necessary upon the subjec:. it was not my intention to ask trom }ea 8 formal report, but rather to iavite aver- val statement of any reasons affecting the public ipterest which. in your opinion would render tbe order inexpedient. Inxsmuch, however, 88 you Bave embodied your suggestions in = written Communication it is proper thar I should make some reply. You earnestly urge that the order be not insisted on, remarkirg that it “is unmistakably the ex. pseseed wieh of the country that Gen. eral Sheridan should not be removed from ‘is present command.” While 1 am cognizant ct the efforts that have been made to retain Gen. Sheridan in‘command of the Fifth Mil- ‘ary District, Iam not aware that the question has ever been submitted to the people them- selves for deiermination. It certainly would be unjust to the army to assuine that an the opinion of the nation he alone capable of commanding the States of Lou- ise Temoved. no other general in the military service ct the United States would be compe. tent to fll bis place. Gen. Thomas, whom I have designated as his successor. is well Ecown to the couutry. Having won high Aud Ronmorable distinction in the fleMd. be bas since, tu the execution of the Tes pousible duties of a department commander, exBibited great ability, sound discretion. and sterling patriotism: he has not failed, under | the most trying circumstances, to enfore ths lawe, to preserve peace and ‘order. to one cournge the restoration of civil autor. uy, and to promote as far as possible A spirit of reconciliation. His administration of (be Department of tne Cumberiand will cer tainly coinpare most favorably with that General ‘Sheridan in the Fifth Military Dis- | trict. These aifairs appear to be in a disturbed condition and a bitter spirit of antagonisi seems to have resulted from Gen. Sheridan's management. He has rendered himselfexceed- iugly obnoxious by the manner in which he has exercise even the powers conferred by Uoi- gress. Snd still more go by a resort to authorit Bot granied by law, nor necessary to its faith ful Bp edicient execution. His rule bas in Tact been ore of absolue tyranny, without relerence {© the principles of our Govern. ment, or the nature of our free institu. tions. The state of affaire which has resulted ‘rom the course he has pursued has seriously iuterteared with @ harmonious, satistactary Sud speedy execation of the acts of Congress, nod 18 alone eufficient to justify a cuange, herefore, cannot pe : garded @s an etiort to’ defes ot Congress.

That Constitution is tae combined and expressed will of the people, and their voice is law wheo reflected in | the manner which that instrament prescribes. While one of its provisions makes the Pre-icent Commander-in-chief of the Army and Navy, another requires he enall take | care that the law is faithfully executed.” Be- | lieving that a change of command of the Fifth Jistrict 1s absolutely necessary fr a faitatul execution cf the laws,” | Lnave issned tne order which ts the subject of this correspondence, and in thus exercising © power that ioheres in the Executive under the Constitution, as Commander-in-Uhief ot the military and naval forces, 1 am dis- charging ‘a daty required of me by | me will of the uation as formally declared | im the supreme law of the land. By his oath. | the Executive is solemnly bound to the best of his ability, to preserve, protect, and defend tne Vonstitution. Although in times of great ex- | citement it may be lost to public views it is his | duty, without regard to the conse. quence to himself to hold sacred | 4nd to entorce any and all of its provisions. | Any other couree'would lead to the destruction of the Republic, for the Constitution one abol- ished, there would be no Congress for theexer- cise of legisistive powers, no Executive to see that the laws are faithfully executed, | Bo jadiciary to afford to the citizen protection of ‘Jife, limb or property. Usurpation would inevitably follow,anda ds spotism be fixed upon the people, in violation of their combined and expressed will. In conclusion, I fail | to perceive “any military, any pecuniary, or | any patriotic reasons” why this order should | not be carried into effect. You will remember, in the first instance, 1 did not consider | General Sheridan the most suitable offi- cer for the command of the Fifth Military | District. Time bas strengthened my convic- | tons upon this point,and has led me tothe conclusion that patriotic considerations de- mands that he should be superceded by an offi- cer who, while he faithiully execute the law, at tbe same time give more general satisfaction to the people, white aud black, North and South. Iam, General, very respectfully yours, BR Jounson. Gen. U.S. Grant, Sec’y of War ad interim. D IMME DIATELY. The order relieving General Sheridan from the command of the Fifth Military District and assigniog General Thomas to that Dis- trict, having been suspeaded on account of the illness of General Thomas, an order will ss0n be issued directing General Hancock to assume cemmand of the District watil the recovery of petal Thomas. not be able to proceed Orie structions will be sent to General Sheridan to turn over the books and papers of the Department to the officer next in com- sand on duty in that Department. General Mower isthe nextin command, but is now very sick, and it is very probable that the business will be turned over to General Grif. fin or General Hartsv‘f, should (eneral Han- cock be unable to immediately proceed toNew Orieans. General Sheridan will then report to General Grant as directed by the order is- sued a ‘ew days ago. s WHAT IT MEANS Late developments show that the real secret | of the course of the President in bringing | Gen.Grant forward at this time is in the pur- | pose to place him conspicuously before the country upon the Philadelphia platform; the President nursing the idea that that rotten old | concern can be rejuvenated by the aid of the reputation of Gen.Grant. He has final'y come to the conclusion that he can do nothing for it | Bimself, but believes that if Gen. Grant will consent to “fight it out ou that line” as the | Coneervative candidate for President, that | some of the planks of the Philadelphia plat- | form may be eaved,and he (Johnson) retire | from office with some degree ot prestige. But | Gen. Grant, by his leters to the President, | warmly remonstrating against the diplace. | ment of Secretary Stanton and Gen. Sheridan. has shown that he has not the slightest idea of risking his political neck upon that rickety. Totten platform. THE CABINET CHANG The Intelligencer. of this morning, announces | authoritatively that «the resignation of every member of the Cabinet is at the disposal of the President:” but sdde, “we do not by this imply that the whole Cabinet is forthwith to be changed, or that vacancies are thas inevi- tably created which must at once be filled.” The Intelligencer intimates that Secretary McCalloch, at least, will be retaimed in the Cabinet for a senson, as his sudden retirement might tend to derange the current cf business bere. Tue Bay or Samana PURCHASED BY THE UniteD STATES.—Singalarly enough, the first pews dispatch transmitted by the Cuban cable is the most important intelligence we have received from the West ludies for years past, It is known that negotiations nave for some time been going on between our Government and the Government of St. Domingo, with a view to our acquiring, for the purposes of a naval station, the large and beautiful Bay of Samana. Ata cost of $5,000,000, the bay, with five miles of land on the circymjacent shore. is at last to become the property of the Unitei States. The bay is forty-three miles m length from east to west, about eight miles broad, and forms one of the finest harbors in the world. Ina military and commercial point of view the acquisition is most important OF SMORRTARY SEWARD any Party.—The revenue steamer Nemena, hay- img on board Secretary Seward, the French snd Spanish Ministers, and Uolosel Seward, arrived at Sixth-steeet wharf this morning at fiveo’clock The distinguished party left thie city on the Nemeha last Saturday afternoon, and méde a briet visit to Fortress Monroe, ‘where they visited the ram Stonewall, bound for Japen, which had just arrived in the har- bor from the Gosport navy yard.

General Wager Swayne is likely to suczeed General Pope in the Third District, and Gan- eral Meade to suceved General Sickles in the Second District, though this arrangement is Dot yet definitely settled. General Sheridan has complained that Gen. eral Rousseau ad vised the removal of the for- mer in a telegram to the President. 1am en- abl:d to give substantially the correspondence between Mr. Johneon and General Rousseau, whilst the latter was in New Orleans. T. President telegraphed to General Rousseau follows: “How do matters luok in Louisian: The reply was that “affairs look very gloomy and tbe people are much depressed. Any change would acquire almost universal appro- bation.” General Rousseau has written a let- ter, dated New York, to General Grant, io which he denies, in toto, the charges made against him by General Sherids} Washington Gossip via New York. ‘The New York papers of Saturday abound in stirring rumors and statements from Wash- ington. THE TRIBUNE ON IMPEACHMENT. Special dispatch to Tribune, dated Washing- ton, August 23, says: ce the recent transactions of the Presi- dentin removing Stanton and Sheridan, and getting up the Binckley correspondence and other like matters, letters have been received here by promineat Republican politicians, trom members of Congress, which state that tbe only remedy left to insure recoustraction is the impeachment of the President. These letters are insignificant, from the fact that sev- eral of them ate from members who at the last seasion of Congress were known as conserva- tives and oppenents of impeachment. They further state that the prominent movers inim- peacbment are busy at work, and are already canvassing among the members to test the feeling on the subject.” THE IMPEACHMENT OF THE PRESIDENT. <’ dispatch says:—The imprach- jon bas again become a prominent lop c of consultation in consequence of recent official acts of the President. ‘The fact that the Chicago Tribune, the leading Republican paper of the Northwest, heretofore opposed, now earnestly favors iinpeachment, is thought by many to indicate a change in the status of Hon. J. W. Wilson, Chairman of the House Committee on the Judiciary, on this question, xs the Tribune has always been understood to express his views of impeachment. Should this be the case, 1t wovld place a majority of the committee for impeachment. THETINES ON THE CABINET. | Aspecial dispatc to the Times, dated Wash- | ington, Friday, August 23. says'—"From the mass of rumors fleating around concerning the Cxbinet it ie difficult fo glean anything relia. | ble. The air is thick with reports, many of | wanich are put forth and countenanced by per- Sons known to be in the confidence of the ?res- ident. Undoubtedly a great pressure is being | brought to bear upon the President by parti- sans protessing friendship for him, in order to induce him to get rid of Messrs. McUalloch, Sewardand Randall. These men wactintheir places men who will appoint noue but Uop- perhesds to office, and the fact that some Ra- publicans stil) hold commissions because they are hopest aud capaole is asin, in the eyes of | these men, which can only be atiendea by their deposition; one thing can be po-itively stated, viz: That thus far the President's relations ‘with the above-named officers are of the most harmonicus character.” FRAUD ON THE Pension Orrice.—On Tues- day la-t Delas L. Atkyns, an attorney-at-law, was arrested at Sherburne, New York, and taken to Buffalo, where he was indicted on Wednesday. The accused entered a plea of guilty,and was remanded to jail by Judge | Nathan H. Hall, of the U. S. District Court, to await sentence. Atkynsis charged with pre- paring, and causing to be presented at the Pension Office, what purpor'ed to be a certified copy of the marriage record in the custody of the town clerk of Sherburne, by which evi- dence a claimant was to obtain a pension as the widow of a soldier in the late war. The record of marriage did not exist, and the sig- natures of the town clerk and the magistrate who purported to have executed the papers were forgeries. As soon as the fraud was dis- covered the Commissioner of Pensions, with | bis accustomed promptitude took the steps leading to the arrest and punishment of the guilty party. SURVEY OF PUnbLIC Lanp.—Commissioner Wilson, of the General Land Office hus jast received from the Surveyor General at St. Paul, Minnesota, the returns of the survey of townships 109, 110, and 111, north ri 30, west 5, principal meridian lying south of tne Sioux Indfan lands, north of Murray and wes! of Redwood counties, inthe southwest- ern part of Minnesota, covering an area of 6.472 acres.
