cidL Advertiser has the following paragraph
"We learn that rumor was prevalent in
Washington yesterday that General Fremont
is to be superseded in his command, and that
Quartermaster- General Meigs is to take his
place"
We have also what we consider good au-
thority, for saying that this rumor unlike
many Others, is founded on facts, and that
Mr.. Blair, at whose earnest recommendation
General Fremont was placed where he is,
accompanied General Meigs in order to ex-
plain TO General Fremont the reasons and
the necessity for this sep. These reasons,
we think it will be found are that General
Fremont exceeded his authority by the pro-
clamations he issued, that being the main
reason, and that he has in other respects
acted in important matters, not only without
consulting the Government, but in contra
yention of its orders and practice.
