Commodore stewart.

We have forborne to notice the late visit OF Commo-
dore Stewart this city, the objects with which
supposed to be connected the result of his conferences
with the President and the Secretary OF the Navy We
have not noticed them, not from any want OF sincere
spect to that distinguished commodore, but in consdera-
ton OF the alleged object Of his visit TO this city. But
there is one report in a OF circulation through
the papers, in the form of letters from Washington,
which does great injustice to the President, and deserves
positive contradiction Ii is said that, in interview
he had with the President the subject, the latter
wished to shift the responsibility OF attempt to take the
castle of San Juan dUlloa from his shoulders to
those of the veteran commodore, by leaving to his dis
creton to attack the castle not, he might decide
But Commodore Stewart said "No; if you will order me
to go and take that fortress will obey your orders cheer
fully and do my best to take il but cannot assume the
responsibility of the enterprise !" The government would
not give the order under these circumstances and so
Commodore Stewart has gone back to Philadelphia"
The scribe says he "makes this statement it was
made" to him We know not the authority upon which
it made, and is matter of profound indifference
us who its author Butwe undertake say positive
ly that mistake Without venturing to express any
opinion upon the views OF the President in carrying on
the war; do say that the President did not shift any
responsibility from his shoulders to those OF Commodore
Stewart Such is the habit Of the man, the char
acter of his administration
