Wasuinctos, July 13, 1876, THE SUMMARY REMOVALS BY THE PRESIDENT— | THE REASONS ASSIGNED BY THE FRIENDS OF GENERAL GRANT—ALLEGED DUPLICITY AND TREACHERY OF MI, BRISTOW—THE ENEMIES OF THE ADMINISTRATION TO BE ROOTED OUT. There is increasing excitement among the republicans here over the summary removals from office which she President is making. Geueral Grant 4s but little andertiood by the leaders of his party. He does not speak his mind freely to any but the few who have won bis confidence. He has never had the habit ot consulting even with his Cabinet on matters of policy, and those to whom he does open himself usually reep his counsels. Hence the reasons which move him to important public acts are often puzzling to the party leaders and generally misunderstood. In his recent re- moyals and in those yet to come, which according to feneral report and belief will not be few in number, he ig, there is good reason for saying, accomplishing a good purpose, long cherished and only delayed because he has been averse to doing what he thought might “hurt ‘the party.’’ ‘The Prosident is profoundiy convinced that he was | for a considerable time the victim of treachery in his | Cabinct. He is persuaded that Mr. Bristow whilo * prosecuting tho Western whiskey thieves, in which it | Is asserted that he had always the countenance and help of his chief, used the opportunity to cast un- generous and unjust suspicions upon the motives and rourse of the President; that whily one eye of Mr. Bristow was fixed upon the public service the other was fixed upon the Presidency, and’ what it was the design of Mr. Bristow and ethers whom he called about him to achieve a political success and force the Presideutial election by the press, by vigorous prosecutions of whiskey thieves and insidious undermining of the President's character, robbing him of the esteem and coufidence of the people ind displaying him to the public as one who would rather shelter than punish criminals, Whether this is truc or not is not the question here.” It is un- doubtedly General Grant's belief, and it has stirred in him a very decp resentment which now, after being for a long time cherished, 18 at last let | loose. He believes that his Cabinet ov *ht to be as | faithful to him as his family; that 1ts members cannot properly cherish plans opposed to Lis own, and he 1s conspicuously faithful to his friends. He resents deep- ly what he believes to be a betraya! of friendship and confidence. Thus he would probabiy say that Mr. Bris. tow used the power of his office to further his Presiden. Jialambition, and this he conid perhaps prove it it were fenied. But he would also say that to fo this without the Prosideut’s consent was a misuse of Mr. Bristow’s office, and that, while | Beneral Grant himself carefully refrained from using his own influence in favor of any one candidate, his Cabinet were the more strictly bound to keep their bands off, and particularly not to use their positions for their own selfish aims. The charges brought against Mr. Bristow by the | President's friends are that be filled the principal offi- ges under his control with devoted personal followers; | that be thereupon used these in ap unjust and | Qngenerows manner to advance his personal fortunes at the cost of attacks upon Gen- eral Grant's good repute; that the Secretary and his followers encouraged instead of discouraging attacks upon the President in the pres in the course of the whiskey trials; that they were the allies and supporters of those who thus attacked the Presi- fent; that they placed him by different manceuvres in 4 peculiarly false position and took advantage of his anfortunate personal friendships and his natural un- willingness to believe men in the wrong whom he had Jong trusted to make him appear the advocateand de fender of such men. They say that whether with Mr. Bristow’s knowledge and consent or not some of bis fol- lowers did even subject the President to the indignity of | setting spies on him to report his conversation and the company he kept at times, and that all this was fone in order that, by bringing the President into sus. picion and disrepute, the Secretary might shine belore the publie as the one conspicuously honest | member of the administration. They charge upon | Mr. Bristow and his followers a long course ot duplicity, and say 1 while he was at first tonciliatory and even subservient to the President's wishes, and at all times professed good faith, he was in fact a mere schemer and aneye servant They say that his reputation with the public is undeserved; that | he i: a person of no ability, ignorant of public aftairs— | merely o good detective officer and a man of an un scrupulous personal ambition, which he attempted to gratify by basely allowing his followers to attack and | andermine the character and fair fame of his chief, who raised bim out of obscurity, and whom he ought to have sheltered against attack. If the President believes what his friends vove Feported assert, then bis recent actions are easily ex plained. Ho is, in his own judgment, resenting a | Jong course of duplicity aud treachery. He holds the followers and favorites of Mr Bristow responsible for what he believes to be attacks upon him, and he removes them and puts others in their places, not to favor whiskey or other rings, but “jo punish treachery and entorce fair dealing. His | friends point to the fact that if men believed to be food public servants had been removed, yqually unexceptionable persons have been yppointed in their places; that Mr. Tyner, for imstance, has a more practieal experience of the Post Office than Mr. Jewell bad when he was appointed, and is quite as able a man; that ® man of undoubted capacity and honesty | Mls Yaryan’s place; that Mr. Bliss, who succeeds Mr. Dyer, was Mr. Dyer’s able and active assistant, and that im the samo way whoever may hereatter be removed it | will be found by the pablic that those who are ap pointed to fill their places will be no less honest, able and vigilant. They add that while | the public has a right to demand of the President the appointment of honest men to public places, it is absurd to suppose that Mr. Bristow and his personal followers are tho only houest men in the sountry. Secretary Morrill, they say, is as honest as Mr. Bristow and has tar greater experience of public life and of the business of the Treasury Department and is not likely to make a great aud false repulauon at the expense of hischief, The President has not said much on the subject himself, He remarked yesterday | to a friend :— “1 think I may as well have friends in office under mo as mies, and I am determined not to be guided by what Senators and Representatives may say, but shall flecide in these matters for myseif.”” ‘There is no doubt that be bas determined to weed the Bristow men thoroughly out of the departments, and ‘shat if he appomts equally good men in their places be Delieves himself to be doing his entire duty by the public, The letter in which he gives Mr. Bristow | leave to relate to the House Committee all that | passed between bim and the President ou the whiskey business ertatihnaa aus of conversation here to- | as heretofore, Mr. Jewell is unable to say what were aay. lt was unexpected, and there bad been impru- dent boasts here by persons who dislike General Grant of revelations which might be made but tor the duty of secrecy, which now fall to the ground. It is no- tieed also that the President invites the committee to examine not only Mr. Bristow, but other members and ex-members or the Cabinet. FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT. Wasuiscrox, July 13, 1876, ME. MOBRISON ON THE BEVENUE LAWS—NO CHANGE TO BE MADE THIS SRSSION—INFOR- MATION OF IMPORTANCE TO BUSINESS MEN. Mr. Morrison, chairman of the Ways and Means Committee, certain that his committee will do nothing this session with any of the bills affecting or amending the revenue laws, From the present out- | ook there is IMkely to be a considerable talling otf in revenue receipts from alll sources, the internal sources especially, and in view of this act the committee are not disposed to make what might be a serious blunder in either changing the existing rates of taxation or increasing or decreasing the subjects of taxation. Mr. Morrison thinks it will De best to let matters go along as they are at presont and until the next session of Congress, when a better view may be had of the altered basis upon which the bu ness of the country is now being done and calculations be made accordingly for an cquitable system of taxa- tion, Mr, Morrison was so unreserved in his expres- sion of the opinion that his committee would do noth- ing tn the premises, and the adjournment of Congr is evidently so near at hand, that the declaration of this policy will do a great deal to give an impetus to mer- cantile and commercial operations tor the fall and winter trade which aro now hesitating or re- strained by the uncertainty as to Congressional action on the revenue question, The merchants will feel indebted to Mr. Morrison for allowing this state- ment of facts to be made public at this season of the year when the fall trade is on the eve of opening. In this same connection it was asserted that the committee would do nothing at present with the sey- oral propositions in their hands for refunding the na- } tional debt. THE PRESIDENT WEARY OF THE STRAIN UPON HIM—HIS IMPATIENCE AT SUGGESTIONS—THE FINAL INTERVIEW WITH MR. JEWELL. The President expressed himself to a republican Senator to-day as wearied and sick from the continued strain upon him, and said he had resolved to leave town fora few days. He has not signified where he will go, but it is thought he will go to his cottage by the sea, In regard to changes in office he has said no more than he did before tho removal of Mr. Jewell, He was spoken to a few days ago by some republicans, one of them a Senator, in regard to some changes they wished made, and became somewhat impatient under their suggestions, his mannor being 80 wuusual as to cause remark, At his final interview with the President ex- Postmaster General Jewell asked whether, tn his letter | of resignation, he should say that ho resigned in ae- cordance with the President’s request, that being the fuct. The President said it might be best for him to say so, although it was a matter of no moment to him. In the letter which Mr, Jewell wrote he made no allu- sion to the request to resign. THE VACANT COMMISSIONERSHIP. In addition to the names mentioned last night that of ex-Congresaman Kellogg, of Connecticut, 18 added to the hist from which it is conjectured the President will make nis selection of Internal Reyenue Commis sioner to succeed Mr. Pratt, THE SILVER BILL AS IT PASSED THE HOUSE. ‘Yhe Conference Committee report on the Silver bill went through the House this afternooa by a‘good ma- jority. As it now stands tbe bill provides for the Is- sue at once if required of $10,000,000 of silver for the $10,000,000 of greenbacks, the latter to be used again only as fast as an equivalent of fractional currency is ncelled, It then provides that the Treasury may buy $20,000,000 of bullion at tho rate of, not exceeding, $200,000 per month, to be issued in coin at the some rate if wanted, These features are substantially a com- bination of what were originally known as the Frost and the Randall Silver bills, All propositions making silver a legal tender for more thun $5 in any one pay- ment are stricken out, THE SHIPPING ACT AND EMIGRATION BILL. The Senate Committee on Commerce agreed to-day to defer until next session all further consideration of the Shipping act and the Emigration bill, HE ILL-FATED MONITOR TECUMSEH—THE RE- MAINS OF HEE OFFICERS TO BE LOOKED AFTER. The Committee on Naval Affairs has agreed to report a resolution requiring the Secretary of War to take charge of tho sunken wreck of the mouitor Tecumseh, in the harber of Mobile, in which the bones of the gal- lant officers and erew of the ill-fated vessel are en- tombed, The object of the resolution is to insure proper care of the remains when the wreck comes to be broken up and removed. PRE eT AEE GENERAL WASHINGTON DESPATCHES, Wasutvatox, July 13, 1876. THE PRESIDENT TO SECRETARY BRISTOW-—-THE LATTER RELEASED FROM THE OBLIGATION OF 8BCRECY AND REQUESTED TO TELL WHAT HE KNOWS TO THE INVESTIGATING COMMIT- TRE. The following letter was yesterday sent to ex Secre- tary Bristow by the President:— EXKCUTIVE MANSION, Wasuixerox, July 12, 1876, To Hon, B, H. Bristow :— Deav Stn—Through the press I learn that the com- Miitee of Congress investigating whiskey frauds have sutmmoned you as a witness, and that you, with great propriety, as I think, have declined to testily, claim- ing that’ what occutred in Cabinet, or between a member of the Cabinet and the Executive officially, is privileged, and that a committee of Congress have ‘no right to demand answer, I appreciate the position you have assumed on this question, but beg to relieve you from ail obligation of secrecy on this subject, and desire only that you may answer all questions asked relat- ing to it, but wish that all mambers of my Cabinet and ex-members of the Cabinet since I havo been President may also be called upon to testify in regard to the same matter, With great respect, your obedient servant, U. 3. GRANT. THE APPROPRIATION BILLS BEFORE THE CON- FERENCE COMMITTEES. The Committee of Conference on the Sundry Civil Appropriation bill have reached an agreement on every point of ditference between the House and Senate, ex- cept one, which 1s the Senate’s amendment striking out the clause by whieh the House proposes to repeal the National Registration and Election law. The in- dications are that the House conferees will recede trom their position on this point toemorrow, The Committee of Conference on the Army Ap- propriation bill have found themselves unable to agree and will so report range, if possible, for their own reappointment, and ag the Senate will, in this event, undoubtedly reap- point its present members of the Conterence Commit twe, there will be an evident deadlock on this vil, just as there 1s now on the Indian | Appropriation bill, which is m the hands of ao second conlerence committee. Nothing has been done to-day in regard to the Consular and Diplomatic Ap- propriation bill, It ys not probable that any agreement will be reached concerning the three last named bills until the general principles at ixsue shall have been settled by an agree- ment of the two houses in regard to the Legislative, Ex- ecutive and Judicial Appropriation bill, on which the Fourth Conference Committee ure making only slow Frogress toward a possible adjustment, THE RIVER AND HARBOR BILL. The Senate bas yet to act on the River and Harbor bil The amendments proposed by the Committee on Api Topriations of that body strike Out items aggregat- tog $952,586, and by the addition of a tew items and the increase of others, adds $043,000 thus showing a difference of reduction of $9,586 im tho aggregate amy unt of the bill as it passed the House, THE post OFFICE DEVARTMENT—THN DE- PARTURE OF GOVRENOR JEWELL—THE FinsTt OFFICIAL ACT OF JUDGE TYNER—HOW TUK GOVERNMENT HAS LOST BY THE TRANSPORTA- TION OF BRITISH MATLS. Governor Jewell is making preparations to leave Washiogton, and will provably take bis departure for Connecticut on Saturaay, He has received quamber of letters irom personal friends in various localities The House conterees intend to ar- | the motives that induced the President to request him to resign. Judge Tyner entered upon his official duties to-day. The first official order signed by him was an order amending the postal regulations by cancelling the word “illegal”? from section 88 of the postal rogula- tions, The section refers to the transinission through the mails of circulars, letters, &c., rogarding lotteries, and the amendment is intended to prevent such insti- tutions claiming to be legal, but without apy authority for so doing, prosecuting their business through the United States inaila. There have been numerous applications for positions in the Post Office Department since the recent change, but it is not probable that any important appointments will be made without some intimation from the Presi- dent that they are desirable, It is*belleved at the de- partment that Judge Tyner will be glad to have postal afuirs in all respects continue as they were at the time Mr. Jewell retired from service, Ex-Postmaster General Jewell when on bis tour of inspection through the West nearly a year ago, dis- covered while at Chicago that the British through mails between Great Britain and its colonies, weighed ten or fifteen tons cach way and was sent about every fortmght. Upon inquiring 1 was found that this Government only received abou: a third for the trans- portation as we paid tho railroads for that service; and it was estimated by Governor Jewell, that the United States had lost thereby, in tho past six or eight years, from $40,000 to $75,000 a year. The Post- master General iinmediately took steps to remedy this condition of affairs, and the English government was notified that the cost of that transportation should be pait, The reply was that the treaty gave them a year in which to make new arrangements; the year expires in August, and Sir Edward Thornton has the negotta- tions in hand. Estimates of the cost have been sent to England, and that government will, doubtless, consent | to anew arrangement, which will save this govern- ment over $50,000 a year. A BILL TO REPEAL THE RESUMPTION ACT. The Banking and Currency Committee, after turther discussion of the specie resumption question this morning; postponed action upon the subject until next Monday. The democratic members ot the committee have agreed to prepare and pass through the commit- tee a bill to repeal the present Resumption act. But at the same time to provide some as yet undetermined method of preparing the Treasury and the country for resumption. SPEAKRE KERR'S HEALTH. Speaker Kerr writes from Rock Alum Springs, the lotter having been received to-day, that he is “slowly Dut substantially improving in health.” AN EARLY ADJOURNMENT THOUGHT PROBABLE. Many prominent Congressmen think that an adjourn- ment of the seasion willtake place about next Monday week, THE CUSTER MONUMENT. A CONTRIBUTION FROM MILWAUKEE.

A FRIEND. A “DIVORCE FIGHT. ROBERT H, BERDELL HORSRWHIPPED IN GO- SHEN BY THE HUSBAND Of HIS DIVORCED WIFE'S SISTER—MURRAY RECEIVES A BULLET IN RETURN FOR HIS LASHES. Gosugx, N. Y., July 13, 187 This evening, as the Ulster county express arrived at the Goshen depot, Mr. Robert H. Berdeil, ex-Prosident of the Erie Railway, who daily returns from business by this train, was met, while passing through the de- pot to bis carriage, by Wisner Myrray, President of this village and teller in the National Bank of Orange County, at this place, Murray proceeded to horsewhip Berdel!, and, after cutting him severely across the ace and head, was shot in the head by Berdell, who fred while his arms were grasped ut the elbow by Mr. A. S Murray, Jr. Mr. J. H. Comer at once wrencbed the pistol trom his grasp. MURRAY'S WOUND is serious, the skull being broken and the braim ex- uding trom the wound. His physiciau, Dr, J. He | Thompson, extracted the ball nearly whole, but says it 18 Impossible to mal Giaghosis of the case yet. WREDELL LOCKED UP. Mr, Berdeil is in the custody of Sheriff Hoyt and has had his wounds dressed by Dr. W. H. Townsend, Great excitement prevails Many think the acts of va Berset, In which Mr, Berdell was worsted in bis attempt to make Mr. Murray a corespondent. The ex- amination will take place before Justice Coleman in the morning. i TRYING TO ESCAPE. Officer Landey, who arrested Mr, Berdell, also arrested his colored coachman, Thomas Burroughs, tor attempting to aid Berdell to escape by rapid driving. ‘The supposed immediate cause of Murray’s attack upon Berdol! was the circulation to-day through the village Post Office of a printed card inclosed and mailed to various parties bere, and of which a number were found upon Berdell when searched by the officer. Tho card was doubtless designed to annoy the surrays, and especially Mrs. Murray, mother of the young man shot, THUR CARD. The card reads thus:— “Mr. Robert H. Berdell, divorced. "? Hon, Mra. A. S, Murray, Gosben, N, Y. Young Murray is ima critical condition, He has a wife and child, bis wife being a sister to Mrs, Berdell, the successfv! plaintiff in the divorce suit. EXCITEMENT IN SAN FRANCISCO. Opposite “The WHY THERE HAS BEEN A GENERAL DECLINE OF MINING STOCKS AND’ FANCY SECURITIBS—CAPI- TAL WITHDRAWN TO MOVE THE GRAIN CROPS. Bax Fravcisco, July 13, 1976. There is no such excitement here as might be called panic, At this season every year a large amount of money is locked up from stock apeculation and used for moving the grain crop, The immense yield this year, estimated at over 1,000,000 tons, occupies moro capital than usual, Many large operators are taking their summer vacation in the interior of the State, and others are at the Centennial. Owners of controlling interests iu mines, with the present dull business in mining stocks, bave no especial reason to hold up the market, The decline in silver, with the other causes named, has had something to do with the late decline in prices, A few heavy dealers, who operate generally as bears, taking advantage of circumstances, bave been throwing the stock on the market and selling'ehort for some time past, and have reduced prices to the point considered “bedrock,” but have now begun to fill, and in consequence stocks have varied but Iittle for three days past. False reports baye been circu- lated about the mines and frightened timid holders. Many who nad stocks carried ‘on margins bave been sold out, and one or two brokers who bought long are somewhat crippled, but otberwise no damage has been reported, and a lively market is expected when the usual reac- tion takes piace, James Keen, Mark McDonald, Jasper MeDonald, D. E. Scofield, the leading bears, have been large purchasers to-day of tho hovanza and other stocks, and the market has been very firm, with an up- ward tendency. ‘ BOWDOIN COLLEGE.
