1t is said that Postmaster General

net, and that he. will soon tender his
resignation so
The HeraGs Washington. special
says. the absorbing topic in this city
is the development of the alleged
project ito y manufacture evidence
against the President, with a view of
securing his impeachment Tie pub
licl opinion is, nearly equally divided
as to the real object of the conspiracy,
as well as to who are the real con-
spirators. Many persons, principally
Radicals, believe that the disclosures
Just made through the application of
Conover for pardon. are part of the
operations of plot between the Presi-
dent and certain of his friends, with
Deneham and his. satellites to create
revolution of feeling in regard to i'm
peachment. ito bring contempt upon
the efforts of the leaders of
that movement. In all proba.
,bility the work is very benifcially
upon the next presidential election.
They say that they cannot believe
that a politician so shrewd and crafty
as Ben. Butler would ever be guilty
of so great blunder as to. compro-
mise himself by plotting in conspiracy
with criminal convicted of perjury
to manufacture false evidence against
the President. These people are con-
fdent that few days will suffice to
clear up the charges against Ashley.
Butler e. Co, when the true charac-
ter of the plot will be made manifest.
On the other hand, the number of
those who entertain no doubt what.
ever of the genuineness of the revela-
tions is very large, and it is claimed
by them that not many days will pass
before developments still more start
ling than any hitherto will be laid
before the country, and that it is not
a Conservative plot that will be re-
vealed.
+. The Hsnaes's special says there is no
foundation in the rumor that Secre-
tary McCulloch is to be, removed, and
that Randall some time since sent in
his (Randall's) resignation.

Secretary Stanton Suspended-Grant
Accepts the, POsitiOn--He Assumes
the duties of the ONCE. 1881.

WASHINGTON. August 12.-At ten
minutes to 10 o'clock this morning
the President sent communication
to Hon. Edwin NJ Stanton, suspend
ing him from the office of Secretary
of War, and instructing him to trans
fer. all records, books, &c. in his GUS
tody to Gen. US. Grant. The Secre-
tary was at the same time informed
that Gen. Grant had beenr en-
powered to act. as Secretary of War
In the interim. ss1s ~
A-communication was att the same
time sent to Gen. Grant authorizing
him to act as Secretary of War adm
.terins, and directing him to assume
the. duties of that office. o1,f . Z.
Shortly after ,noon.i Stanton sent "a
reply to the President, ,in which he
denied, that without. the consent of
Congress, OF legal cause, the Execu-
tive had any right, under. the Consti-
tuition, to suspend him from office.
,Inasmuch, however. as the General
commanding the armies Of the Uni
ted States has notified him that he
accepted the appointment of Secreta-
Of War 0d interim, the Secretary
concluded by saying that he had no
alternative but to submit under pro-
test to superior force, sTs
General Grant therefore assumed
charge of the Department of War,
and appeared at the Cabinet meeting
to-day, for the purpose. of considering
certain questions connected with the
Territory recently acquired from Rus

With regard to the recent disclos-
ures Of Sanford Conover, there is the
highest authority for saying that when
the disclosures come before the
President with an official seal of
their contents, he has decided, after
due deliberation, neither to order an
Investigation, or. the collection of
other evidence rumored to exist; nor,
on the other hand, to let them lie se-
cretly on his files, but to commit
them forthwith to the public, and rid
