officer in rank command of the Fifth District until
the arrival of General Hancock from the far West.
We are informed that the differences known be
so wide between the President and General Grant, that
prominent gentlemen supposed them rreconciab and that
the retirement of the General from the War Department
inevitabe but General Grant and the President had
interview at the Executive Mansion, which resulted in
the readjusment of the trouble.
1t appears further that the only point of difference is to
the person in whom Congress vests the power to supervise

President Grant.

This is doubtless another link in the chain of niquy
which Andrew johnson has for months past been weaving
the purpose of destroying loyalty in the Southern States
But the people powerful than the Cabinet, and

the genius of the Secretary of State will be sufficient
vent the reconstruction of the rebel States the laws of
Congress direct.
There is now universal cry for the impeachment of
Andrew Johnson. Those who in July last thought it mpo
fmpracticable' anxious await
ing the meeting of Congress- that the renegade of the White
House may be tried for his crimes against the country and
hurled from power. On this question there does not
be any Conservative Republicans radical and
