Harris Pen. sion Agent at Wheeling, West Virginia, vice Doddridge suspended. THE Division of abatements and refanding in the internal revenue bur: au has been consolida- ted with that of special taxes, and the whole placed in charge of Mr. Charles Chesley, now chief of the latier division. Rives ELECTED 1w THE FIFTH Virornta Dis- TRIGT.—Hon. J. H. Platt, received a telegram this morning trom Collector Wilcox, at Lyncb- burg, stating that Rives, was undoubtedly elec- ted in the Fifth Congressional District of Vir- ginia. Nor RkELratTep.—The Cincinnati Commercial says it will be a shocking disappointment to the Washington correspondents engaged in abusing ex-Secretary Cox, to learn that Colonel Fisher is not bis brother-in-law; that they are not related and were not acyuainted until after Mr. Cox had served his term es Governor of Ohio and went to Cincinnati to practice law. THE Bamisnerree OF SECRETARY The Correspondence with the Presi- dent Which Led to It. Publication of the correspondence between President Grant and ex-Secretery Cox, which led to the withdrawal of the latter from the Cabinet, with a sem-official statement of facts in the case has been authorized and made. The following is an abstract of the correspondence and statement: The President, ina letter from Long Branch, dated on the 22d of August, writes 9s follows: “I understand that you have appointed one day this week to hear arguments in the McGarrahan case. That is well enough, because if Congress should fail to settle that case we may have it to do, and the sooner we know all the points of it the better. However, as the matter has been taken im hand by Congress hefore the incoming oF this administration, and so much fraud is charged, and believed to exist, on both sides, 1 am not willing that my name should be signed to a patent for either p.rty until Congress’ bas either decided or declared their inability t» do 80. 1 w'sh you would say to Mr. White, secre- tary for sighing patents, not to put my name to that one except on special orders from me through you. He must not take orders {rom Mr. Wilson * the matter. I bave grown suspicious of Mr. W., and will tell you why when I go to Washington next.” Secretary Cox replies next day that he has complied with the P.esident’s instructions, co fev as his Private Secret ary wes concerned. He then says that he thinks the President must bs been misinformed #s to the status of the disputed land claim in Congress, arguing that the question could be decided by the Interior Department, and gives his views upon the sub- icct, which are decidedly in favor of one of the parties. He then su; its that a Cabinet meet- ing be called to consider the subject. Mr. Cox intimates that if the President should not sup- port him in his views, he would resign. To this letter the President made no reply, thus tacitly refusing to abandon the position he had taken again signing the land patent. Mr. Cox’s last letter to the Pr published, is dated October With regard to that part of Mr. Cox's last letter which seems to imply an interterence on the part of somebody with the Indian policy of the Administration, it should be understood that the President had no issue with Mr. Cox on that subject. Nor did he permit any outside inter- ference. It is generally known to the country that President Grant is the author of the policy now being pursued by the government toward the Indians; and the people may rely upon the fact that no departure will be made from that policy so long as he is President, no matter what cuanges may take place in the Cabinet. , With regard to the “‘reforms in the civil ser- vice,” allusion to which is made in the last let- ter of Mr. Cox, it is well undgrstood here and elsershere, by all who haze anything to do with the executive departments of the government, that since the inauguration of President Grant's acwinistration, particular attention has been given to this matter. The President himseit, with every member of his Cabinet, have, with- out any formal parade or show, made it’a eon- dition that no person shall receive an office without first undergoing an exemination, the object of which is to ascertain, first, his fitncss sor the place; and, second, his character tor fdelity and integrity. Asa matter of course, preference is given to persons who are known to entertain the same political views as the Presi- dent and the members of his administration. But this has in no instance, so far as is known, been allowed to override the other necessary qualifications for office. ‘The letter ot Cox on the land claim question clearly shows that the question of reform in the civil service was not the issue. ident, already ~0e- —____ ELecTIon DistuRBANcEs.—United States Marshal Packard in New Orleans has a tel:- = regarding the riot on Monday night at ton Rouge.

A PLEASANT CHAT WITH SENATOR HARLAN: Pampkins and Politics—Carl Scharz the San Domingo Treaty—The portionment Bill--Secretary Cox's Resignation—A New Deal in the In. terior Department—The Censas— New Clerks quicker than old. Armed with vicarious power as envoy extraor dinary of Taw STAR, the writer hereof telt as- sured of a cordial reception trom the world at large, and accordingly went forth seeking whom he might interview. Turning on to H street from the Arlington corner, my eyes were greet- ed with the sight of a load of pumpkins, drawn by a bybrid team of mules and horses, unkrown even to the most vivid imagination before the wr, but row almost proverbial as a Virginia farmer's turrout. Pompkirs are certainly no very suggestive in the absiract, but the cumu- Jation of an entire load in that immediate vieinity, together with the brilliant fall foliage of Lafayette Square, induced the belief that some Yankee, or tollower of Yankee customs, was laying in a stock of winter provisions. That belief was finally confirmed by the appearance of no less a personage than the HON. JAMES HARLAN, U. 8. 8., who, with dignified and impressive gestures, Pointed his cane to a stone alley near a brown- stone front mansion, evidently {directing the pumpkin driver in the way he should go to find the store hovse. Most propitious or auspicious beginning of the interviewing season, thought J; for I knew that next to eating good things the contemplation of them will put a Senator in good humor. So 1 approached the honorable gentleman, and, having saluted him, discovered that, for the moment, his mind was entirely ab- sorbed with the duty of stowing away the pump- kins. “ You're going to have something to eat this winter,” said I. “ Yes, I am—unhook those lead-horses, John, and back the wagon up here—going to have something. I hke to go to market. I don’t know as it pays, but—can’t you hoist them into the second story of the barn ?—it is great amuse- ment.” © PUMPRINS don’t grow as large here as they do inthe West,” I suggested. “No, sir; they don’t seem to deve'ope even im a favorable season. Allright, Joby; pat that corn in the same window where you put the oats.”” ‘While this conversation was going on I hada fine opportunity of viewing my victim, for vic- tim now I felt him to be, because I knew that if pumpkins didn’t develop he would. He was drcssed a3 usual in a silk hat. about four sea- sons behind the fashion—in fact, too old to be in fachion again—a semi-surtout or frock coat of broadcloth, with vest and pants of the same material and color, and heavy kip boots. Ke- mwembering him when, as a Cabinet ofticer du- ring the regime of A.J., he is credited with having aided Mr. Stanion in saving the Kepub- he, I could not refrain from speculations ‘+ to whether he then had an eye to his pumpkins, or whether his mind was too much absorbed with the busy caresot state to find time for such trivial amusements. A most substantial min he has always appeared to me, but never more <9 than when directing the disembarkation of bis mon cing’s purchase. No senatorial toga en- cumbered his manly form; but as an independent citizen of the Kepublic, not unmindful of bodily comforts, be proceeded with his duties w.th a cleverness that suggested familiarity with th 0 I ly concluded that even when the ship of state was under A. J.’s pilotage, he must have provided proverder as careially and suc- comaly as he does now when his friends have control of the helm. He fivally invited me into the house, and ushered me into what he termed his den, where he did his work. Being seated l applied the force pump, and diccovered that my victim was wnususually well posted—almost as well posted, in fact, rezarding current topics, asa firrt-class newspaper man. He proceeded to say that THE COMING SESSION, although a short one, wovld doubtless be lively, and that among the earliest measures to be pressed by the West 's the apportionment bill. “What do you think will be the result of the SCHURZ MOVEMENT IN MIS30URI 2” Tasked. ‘He won’t have much support in the Senate. The administration isin better favor now with the majorityof us than it ever has been, and Schurz will tind himself without backers. He is merely carrying out a raid which was commenced some time ago by the eastern Senators over the San Domingo treaty. Nominaliy Schurz supported the administra- ton, but practically he did not. He was the most active man in the Senate in organizing opposition to that treaty. He is a bright, active man, and probably the most eloquent and fin- ished orator in the Senate. Suamuer led the ep- position to the treaty,as you know, and was sul ined by the entire New England cliqu some {or one reason and others for another; bat they all opposed the admunistration, and no one was more active than Mr. Schurz.” “THE RECENT CABINET CHANGE may help the President,” I said. « Yes, it seems that General Cox’s resignation has created a better feeling. When Cox went the Cabinet, General Grant considered him one of the most promising young men in the country, and I know that he has always been a careful, law-abiding and honest oflicer. I think he left on PERSONAL GROUNDS alone, with some unpleasant feeling on his part on account of having been overruled by the President. Legally the President cannot inter- fere with the internal control of the departm: by his sccrevarie:, but no-ally he cam. Now Cox intended to resirict the leaves of absence granted to his clerks toone month every year, and intended that they suould go home fo vote during that month. The Presideut overruled bim in *his, and insisted that they should not be chargea for the time that they were absent at- tending the elections. That made Cox feel bad, and there was another thing THE M’GARRAUAN CLAIM, which you know about | presume, is still pend- ing im congress, and Cox was about to issue patents under a law of last session, which would have cut McGarrahan out. Stewart managed the bill, and I offered a number of amendments intended to secure small minera their right to squat apd wash gold. The bill provided that a vumber of claimants could club together anv gt ‘ant iskg = Pig sep Lmeet ~~ weary opposed it on the same grounds that did, finally when it into @ conference committee, of which they were members, | did’nt pay any more attention to it. The House bill, or Stewart’s bill was then adopted. Atter the adjournment, Senator Nye staid here for rome time, and nursed a lot of claims throuzh, *o that finally Cox was about to issue the petents. ‘The Presidentoverruled him again on <r that the issue would cut McGarralan out, by virtually giving the contested land to bo Dect i lane som | bgeaed int Che sinten te in co: is le Cox tee!
