Rupture Between the President and

NEW YORK, Sept. 6.-The Herald's spe-I
clal says: An open rupture between the |
President and General Grant is reported.
The Presidents recent proclamation re-
garding the interference with the laws in
the Carolinas has caused it. One account
says that Grant had accused the President
of disloyalty, and another that he consid-
cred certain al usions in the proclamation
as insulting to himself. 1t seems generally |
conceded, however, that Grant had deter
mined to leave the War Office.

ment states that Mississippi, which has
Justly enjoyed the reputation of being the

Interview Between Grant and the
President.
1t is known that in the interview be-
tween the President and Gen. Grant last
Tuesday, the latter charged upon Mr.
johnson the responsibility of the failure of
the constitutional amendment, by which
the South had lost more than the North,
for thereby ten organized States had been
kept out of the Union until they complied
with the proclaimed conditions of safety.
The World ON Sensational Alarms.
The Worlds special says of the interview,
between the President and General Grant:
No quarrel took place, no unpleasant words
were exchanged, and in fact the interview
was as pleasant and ordinary as dozens
which have preceded it. That Grant and
the President differ on some points regard
ing the enforcement of the reconstruction
acts is too well established to be repeated.
but that they growl and snarl at each other
and call names, as some of the Radical cor
respondents telegraph, proves to, be such
absurd stuff that neither of the distin-
guishtd officials deem it necessary to dig
nifty it with contradiction. al -.

Radicals, will soon be published.

The Tribune's special says: Gen. Grant

to leave the war Office shortly after he got
there and return home. The double duties
of Secretary of War and General of the
armies are wearing on his health.

sf--9 tial Difficulties.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 6.-The National In
telligencer confirms reports of the speedy
Issue of proclamation of amnesty to the
mass Of the Southern people, The Intelli-
gencer also says: The rumor of change in
the War Department is wholly without
foundation in truth, but we cannot but
give credenee to the report that Cabinet
changes are imminent.
The Intelligencer is authorized to say
that the account of the alleged interview
| between the President and General Grant,
| in which the latter is represented to have
conducted himself in a manner in. the
| highest degree reprehensible, is fabrica-
| tion from beginning to end. Gen. Grant
/ did not say to the President he considered
his opposition to the constitutional amend

vented the admission of the enemies of the
| Government in the form of foreign States
4 to representation in Congress. ~ -. p
TIE assertion that during the Interview
referred to the rupture. between the Pres
ident and General Grant beca me irreeon-
cilable, is equally without foundation, as

the recent proclamation issued by the Pres
