The provision of tbe act prohibiting sich officers from purchasing or disposing of any State or United States securities bas been re. penled. , Aside from this Mr. Stewart cannot give ap bis businees immediately, it being 80 exten-ive that a purchaser cannot well be found. Be=ides his two immense establishments in New York be has a large wholesale housein Philadelphia and another in Boston Healso has immense estublishments in Manchester, England; (! cow, otiand; Paris and Berlin, where Euro; ean goods are stored preparatory to ship. ment to New York. He bas another bonse at Lyone for silk and velvet goods exclusively; hence it will be seen that an immense amouut of capital is required to purchase bis business. ‘The law may be modified by UVongrese, or Mr. Stewart may conclude to give up his busi- ness to take the position, bat some of his friends this morning expressed a doubt if he will, P.S.—By our Senate report it will be seen that President Grant bas senta communi tion to the Senate asking that the ineligibility of Mr. Stewart be removed by act of Congress.
