1t is believed by prominent gentlemen
that the difference between the President
and Gen. Grant in relation to Gen. Sheri-
dan and Sicklcs, are irrcconcilable. The
order issued by the President yesterday. di-
recting Gen. Hancock to relieve Sheridan,
and Gen Candy to relieve Sicklcs, have
not yet been executed. II is said that Grant
in letter to the President declines to di-
rect the order to be executed. and states his
refusal in strong terms. virtually denying
the right of the President to interfere III

BY Congress. asserting that the entire con-
