The HeT0td OF Friday returns 10 Its state
ment of fortnight ago IS to the removal ot
Fremont Boosting of the first falsehOOd az
special intelligence, reterating that its news
was true, and adds;
1--WE publish In another column extracts 1ols 1HE TRis
and Independent, which bear out al thas We ohAg
stated"
TO show the impudence of this assertion, We
quote what The Herald originally stated:
"Upon charges mad by Col Blair Mai Gen. Femorth'
been ordered 10 report himself for tial ey o2oit ,s Yea
Of Fortress Monroe has been ordered 20 supetede nea
Fremont In command Of the Department q tho West sod
Gen Gans6eld left for Fortress Monroe t1is afternoon :"
supersedc Gen. wool"
These are the statements in The Herald OF
oct. 3, which it now reassegts and processes
to support by the testimony Of TIE TRIBUNE
and The Independent. And here is the eyi-
dence:
TiJuHf, Hdslagt5n Dispa,ch Of oct ~

report by hitter Washington. Big ~ Tu1cT "a nor ~
Cen Fremonts military admiEa ion 6hal action upon be
will promptly be taken"
And the testimony Of The Independent is that
Fremont's removal
was planned In high circles snd could hare been carried
into but for the voice Of the people The eaems
Of General Fremont openly boosted Of his al Itey Wee
certain Of IT, and informed by very distinguished
connected with the GQVenTTeHt ihs. i YES sa's 70
Aheie H.eo oc - 80 %
bis capscy general but the Opposition 70 I'm 10 o'S
slceping-it is not dead
The reader will observe that both tbese eI-
tracts prove exactly the reverse of what The
Herald asserts That mendacious print nearly
three weeks ago said Fremont has been ordered
to trial, Gen. Wool has been ordered to super
sede Fremont, and Gen. Mansfield Lejf this al
terDoon to supersede Wool. There was no fu-
ture or even present tense to qualify the false
hood 1t was q positive statement that such
events had taken place the whole being de-
Eberate, unqualified invention, as then do
nounced, aud subsequently proved. Tho
efrrontery OF quoting the exact opposite to sus-
tain it is cocl, even for The Aew York Herald

Quite an excitement has been Gre
ated here by the insubordination ct
the troops at the Naval Academy. j:
appears that their term of enlistment
had expired last Friday, the 18th Of
July, but they were not permitted to
return home. an order having been re.
ceived that they be continued in ser
vice until the 10th Of August. On
Saturday they broke ont in open re-
volt. One having requested peruass-
sion to return home, was refused,
when he commenced using the rsost
insulting language to his command
ing officer, who Immediately ordered
a guard to arrest him, whereupon the
company Of which the offender w.as
a member, stepped forward en aesse,
and drawing their. swords, refused to
permit his arrest.
