NU DIRT is morning throws any quantity of dirt upon Vice President Wada, in return for the lat ecent forcible exposition (on the stump in Onio) of the fact that Ken- teky is wholly in the bands of rebels and rebel sympathizers, and is at this momen; more fisgrantly in rebellion than any of tha | States in which rebellion was necessarily “+ squelebed” by force of arms.

At was understood among the knowing ones, Inst night, that the President has abandoned: for the time being, the ides of making farther Cabinet changes, much to the chagrin of th« number of leading Democratic party managers Who have been of late trying to screw him ap to that point. He probably finds his current imbrogiie with General Grant about work enough to mauage—or to try to manage, “after a fasbion”—just now. Yet there is no telling when be may take the notion to decapitate every mo’ber's son of his present munisters. The difficulty of getting gentlemen whoze names would be likely to satisfy the “‘Conser- | vative Democracy,” to consent to go before the Senate for inevitable rejection in less than a hundred days, bas probably disinclined him to add to his current embarrassments by put. | tang new and untried men at the heads of the several depariments. General Grant's palpable and earnest protests against ihe course he is pursuing, foresbadowing as they do, more open and emphatic differences, if not direct col- | lisions of authority between them, must be operating to induce him to hesitate to carry | out the bebests of Messrs. Black. Blair, Wood & Co in this important matter. GOV. MOR’ ON THE SITUATION. The speech recently deiivered by Ex-Gover- | nor—now U.S. Senator—Morton. of indiana, &t Columbus, Ohio, is spoken of by the West- rn press generally, as an effort of remarkable | ability, and as being likely to exert far more influence upon the approaching elections than usually results from popular oratorical efforts. Governor Morton is a man of great breadth of | intellect and intense force. He is magnetic withal; and they say of bim ia Indians that be possesses the faculty of impressing hi hearers with the correctness of his views to a degree unapproached by any other speaker of ihe umes. CONVOCATION EXTRAORDINARY Among the visitors at the Executive Mansion this morning were Gen. James B. Steadman, Hon. Samuel J. Randall, of Pennsylvania, and Jno. F. Coyle, Esq., of this District. Gen- Steadman had an interview with the President. ‘which lasted for some time. He arrived in town last night, and of course his presencs here gives rise to many rumors as to his busi_ nese in the city. There seems to be but little doubt that he is herein answer to a summons trom the Executive, and his presence at the Executive Mansion so soon after his arrival <oufrme that impression. Frank P. Blair, Sr.. Was also at the White Honse this morning. COMMISSIONER ROLLINS. Parties interested in procuring wholesale cbavges in the interpretations of the internal Revenue laws, are believed to be making a very determined onset on the President to procure the removal of Commissioner Rollins and the appointment of General Steadman in bis stead. We Know not as yet what are their chanceso! success. Mr. Rollins is exceedingly | obmoxicus to all who would shirk tlie pay- menj of their just dues under the Internal | Revenue laws, hundreds of whom would giadiy pay roundly to compass his ejection trom odice THE RUMOR OF THE HOUR. AS we goto press to-day it is confidently statec on the avenue that the result of the con. vocation athe White House to-day is that Geners! James B.
