The Heralds special says it is stated in
Washington that Radical official recent
ly called on the President and proposed
that he should join in a plot for the des-
truetion of Grants chances for the Presi-
dency, and it is believed that the PROPOSE
ton to place Grant in Stanton's stead as
Secretary of War, and thus apparently
committing him to the Johnson policy, is
part of the plot.
The Times special says it was made
known to the President from an apparent
ly reliable source, that Mr.. Stanton would
Vacate should the President demand per-
emptorily that he give up the Office. It is
the purpose of Mr.. johnson to allow the
whole matter to remain in abeyanee of a
few days. giving time for reflection on the
part of Mr.. Stanton and the friends who
advised him as to the course he should
pursue, and if he then persists in the
refusal to resign, the President will
suspend him, by giving him notice that be
isthereby suspended from further execution
of the functions of . the office of Secretary
of War, and that the reasons for their sns-
pension will be submitted to the Senate at
the next session of Congress. The subject
was fully discussed in the Cabinet yester-
day, and the course above indicated was
unanimously approved as being within the
Sd section of the tenure-ofofice Law.
The Cabinet was nearly unanimous in
the opinion that the 1st section of the law
gives Mir. johnson power TO remove Stan
ton. who was never regularly appointed by
Mr.. johnson and. confirmed as his appointee
By the Senate This point will be dis
cussed again in the Cabinet on Friday
next. t.shet saa
