the y est, this morning assume consistency The
Administration has determined to deprive General
Fremont OF his command. This decision is not
founded ppon demonstrated unftness of the Cen
eralbfor the actual duties of the soldier. His cour-
age is undiaputed; his ability to lead an army into
battle and manage it so to insure victory is nn-
tried No one indeed will cali in question the
many FRANK and gallant qualities which have given
romantic interest to his history, and 30 strongly
attracted the regard Of large portion Of the peo-
pie But TO the General in charge of large mill.
1ary department, something more than the dash
and chiFalrousF brillianey Of O gay cavalier is
needed. Upon the mere military Leader rfnst be
grafted great administrative ability; an aeauaint-
ance with the minute details of business and the
ability to grasp them all; keen insight into char
acter, and an infexbleo determination 10 exact
honesty, fidelity and economy from ali those peces
Early intrusted with the conduct of detail, In
these qualifications Gen. Fremont has been fonnd
lacking. 1t is not the Administration which has
condemned him. The Congressional Corsmi,tee.
appointed at the extra session to investigate the
character of the army contracts, has sat at st.
Louis, and patiently investigated the entire method
and result of Gen. Fremont's administration, and
has been obliged to condemn and disappyoFe Is,
and to pronounce his unfitness for the position.
President lincoln, after such an inquest and yer.
dict, has alternative but totransfer the Genera
to some other tkeater, where his purely military
capacity may have chance to prove itself ant
to place in his stead a calmer and more pruden
officer, who shall bring to the fuiillment of hi
duties patience, moderation and practical business
talent. Gen. Hunter, who probably succeeds Gen
Fremont, is understood to be thus Qualified.

THE LINCOLN CABINET DIVIDED ON TIE CoNDUcT
OF THE WAR.-Forney, who is supposed to be in
the confidence of the Lincoln Administration,
writes to his paper from Washington F
We have arrived at a period in the history Of the
war when the largest demand is made upon the
Executive capacity. The army of the Potomac is
full at least it has reached that point where it is
in condition for aggressive operation, and the sur
plus Of troops is being directed to other points.
In the deliberations of the Cabinet, to the policy
to be adopted here there is division of opinion.
The President, supported by Secretary Seward, is
opposed to a forward movement. surrounded by
an army, as we are now, against which no foe can
successfully contend for the possession of the city,
they prefer and advise that no forward movement
be made here but that the surplus force now com
ing into the field be forwarded to Kentucky and
Missouri and that in those States vigorous effort
will be made to crush out the rebellion, while the
naval fleets now in course of organization ara
brought to bear upon the ports and cities along
the coast Of the Southern States. But other mem
bers of the Cabinet urge, also, as part of the
programme, vigorous crusade during the autumn
months against the rebel army in Virginia, The
