The CHANGE WAS NEEDED.-There is no
longer any doubt that MIR. Cameron was re-
moved from the war secretaryship because
he was in the hands of a horde of swindline
contractors who not only robbed the treasury
heavily and const 'ntly, but embarrassed the
prosecution of the war. The New York
Times says: 1--WE are assured that for weeks
Gen. Mcclellan demanded a full supply of pom
toon bridges, absolutely essential to his 3D.
er.tions, but could not get them that Is, 900
stand OF arms, the best in the world, were
kept in this city for weeks, under his inces-
SAINT and urgent requistion for them, because
Pennsylvania contractors hid not vet been
able to levy their exactions upon them. And
these are but two of the many instances that
might be cited to the same effect The
mighty interests of the nation have been made
subordinate to the greedy avarice of swindlinx
contractors. The war department has been
virtually in the hands and at the mercy of
men who care nothing for the sufferings of

own ends, aad give them chance to enrich

He was not compelled to lie down on the

him to Fort Lafayette. / did not threaten
to inhict severe punishment upon him, or in
any other way re. train his sentiments. The
charge that he had been cleared Of crime by

The only action that has ever been taken in
his case was by the Grand Jury which IN
dicted him. The Attorney General saw prop
er to noite that Indictment, and discharge
him from civil custody, for reasons which
were doubtless satisfactory to him. The prop
er department issued the order to take him
into military custody, and executed the Or
der. Gen Banks refused to obey a writ Of
habeas corpus issued by Chief Justice fancy
and Gen. Dix not only refused to obey =
writ issued in similar case, but issued ~
