TiJNAL INTERCHANGEABLE CONTINUATION IN
THE WAR DEPARTMENT FAVORED By THAT
JoUENAL.
The position wAich ahe National Intenfgencer
occupies towards the administration, makes any
thing it says with reference to so important a
| matter aa the probable resignation of d cabinet
| officer Of great weight. We, therefore, transfer
TO cols;mns its article this subject, with the
expression Of our surprise at the manner in which
that journal treats the subject:
THE POSITION OF SECRETARY STANTON.
The following dispatch, hence to the PhiIa.
deiphia Press was undoubtedly written or inspired
w tne incendiary editor Of the Chronicle, and
speaks for itself:
WAsHlSGToN, Oct. 18.-The Philadelphia IN
qurer's special dispatch OF Tuesday night from
Washington contained the following:
am enabled TO say, upon high authority, that
Hon. Edwin M. Stanton mas, in writing, requested
the President to relieve him of his position as sec
retary Of war, ard that Mr. Stanton will be sent
to Spain as minister Of the Uaited States in place
Of Mr.. Hale. Lieutenant General Sherman will
be requested to assume the datfes of the war de-
partmeat as acting secretary Of war.
When you are assured that the whole of the
above statement in reference to Mr.. Stanton is a
pure iab4lcation, and that no such arrangement
mas ever Been suggested or invited by him, a1Ed
that the theory OF resignng hfs seat in the cab
met is at war with his own repeated declarations
ana lhtenI0ns, you nay wonder what sort of a
spirit it y 5b&t puts IN circulation such charges
against statesman whose entire career has been
one unselfsh and heroic tribute to his country. 1t
is to be regretted that even the Ledger, after its
recent severe experience, should also lend itself
to the circulation Of this statement. That paper
rot only copies the telegraph dispatch, but has
today an editOriaL reference to it! What has Mr.
Stanton done that he Should be thus prosecuted
&ad bitterly assaed? Are the men who traduce
HIM aware haFF much good he is doing in his
present position, or do they desire an inefficient and
corrupt man to succeed him

Death of gen. washington Barrow.



1t has become our painful duty to chronicle the
death OF the Hon. Washington Barrow, of this
city. He expired at 10 O'Clock on the night of the
18th inst in St. Louis, at the residence of his
brother, John e. Barrow. The city papers of
yesterday announced his serious illness at St
Louis, but we were not prepared for the subse-
quent sad announcement which has cast a gloom
over this whole community.
Gen. Barrow has been in feeble health for sew.
eral years, and he suffered much from his priva.
ti0ns during his absence in the South, which com.
pletely prostrated his strong constitution. Ten
days since, having much improved in health, he
went to St. Louis on business, and was suddenly
taken i'll, of what disease we are not yetinformed
which put an end to his existence in a few days.
A this hour sufficient time is not permitted to
write as appropriate notice of the attainments,
abilities and high standing of General Barrow in
this briet sketch, as the distinguished subject de-
mands. We cannot refrain from saying, however,
that in early life he gave evidence of those quail
ties which IN after years brought him often before
the public, and that he filed many distinguished
positions conferred upon him by his native State
of Tennessee and by the United States-wth
honor to himself, and to the satisfaction of the
government that employed him. On two previous
occasions he has filled the position of editor of
this iOurnal-first in the year 1884 and again from
the oath of March, 1915 until the spring of l847,
when he retired from the editorial conduct of the
Banner 10 enter the canvass Of that year for rep.
resentatiye in Congress from this district and was
elected by handsome majority.
He was gentleman, and a man of honor
genial III his disposition, he endeared himself tC
his associates, who will long remember his fine
qualities and regret that he is taken from theii
social circle. We tender to his bereaved relatives
our heartfelt sympathies and coincidence.

ruled for just twenty-seven days, being deposed
by a junta, September y, 1855. After three
weeks of anarchy, Alvarez, the King of Guerrero,
was made president. On December IL, 1860, Al

eating his authority to Comonfort. In January,
1858, the army reyolted and compelled Comonfort
to resign, and declared Zuoaga president. The
partisans of Comonfort, however, declared that
Juarez, who was chief justice Of the supreme
court, became president by the fact of Comon-
forts resignation. and Juarez, taking the same
view of the case, raised an army Of liberals y
and got himself beaten by zuoaga. He found his
