Assistant Secretary of the Treasury,
to the Presidents policy. Mr.. Chan
dler has hitherto been one of the
most radical of the radicals, and the
acknowledged head of the notoriously
corrupt cotton ring i'll the depart
ment. To-day, however, he is anx-
lously inquiring how he can get on to
the Presidents platform, and loudly
proelaiming his admiration of the
Philadelphia declaration of princi-
pies.
The correspondent of the Balti-
more San says:
Rumors are rife concerning re-
movals and appointments to Office.
The President has made the impor-
tant declaration that ''heretofore he
made removals from personal rea-
sons, and should now make them for
national reasons" Every radical in
cumbent of Office may apply the rule
to himself
There was full meeting of the
Cabinet on the 21st Secretary Stan
ton did not send his resignation to
the President, rs has been reported.
He loves power too we'll to resign it,
and until he has positive assurance
from Mr.. johnson that he must 60
out of the Cabinet, he will hold on.
Such assurance will be given ere
long.
The same reliable correspondent
says:
l can state, upon equally as good
authority and certainty. that General
Howard will soon be superseded as
superintendent of the Freedmen's
Bureau Several military officers of
good record, who, like General How
ard, have lost q limb in the service,
and who are his equals, if not his su-
periors. in ability and intelligence, are
named as his successor. General
Tlllson, Chief of the Bureau in Gcor-
gia, is most favorably considered, and
will likely get the position
The correspondent of the Philadel-
phia Ledger writes:
The axe is being prepared far some
thousands of small postmasters
throughout the country, and they
may as we'll make up their minds to a
change of quarters. You are, of
course, aware that the appointments
made to succeed those opponents of
the Executive policy (those under
81, 500 salary do not have to pass
the ordeal of the Senate, and hence
the sweep will be a clean one, and
without any fear for the consequences.
Nathaniel G.. Taylor, of Tennessee.
will be appointed Third Auditor of
the Treasury within day or two, it
having been determined to remove
the present incumbent, John Wilson.
The T'ib~ne's correspondent writes:
Two-thirds of tho Philadelphia
Convention are here. All day Satur-
day, the lobbies Of the White House
were crowded with members trying
to see and kneel down to his Excel
lency. Dean Richmond, Sanford E.
Church, and Il number of New York
politicians are here In fact, Wash
lngton has had little life put into it
something it has not had since the
adjournment of Congress. Mr.. VIM
Faxon, Assistant of the Navy, return
ed yesterday from his visit North.
All kinds OF rumors are atloat about
important removals from office. The
emphatic manner in which the Presi
dent spoke yesterday about having
his policy carried out, has started
AGAIN the old rumor of wholesale re-
movals. The first on the list is Sec
retary Stanton. 1t is said he will be
compelled to resign very soon. Mr.
stanton was not at the White House
with his brother Secretaries during
the speech-making yesterday. The
ostensible objection against Secretary
Stanton Is his supposed non-support
OF the Presidents policy. The main
cause, however. is the great pressure
from the Southern men and Northern
copperheads against Stanton for his
acts during the rebellion. Stanton's
successor will be General Steedman.
