A SUCCESSOR to Mr.. STANTON as Secretary Of
War is soon to be nominated by the President,
and his name will probably DO sent to the Senate
at an early day after the meeting Of Congress-
l. is reported that :he President will claim the
right to remove Mr.. STANTON, and not give any
reason for suspending him from Office. The
civil tenure act is construed by the President as
invalid so far as it applies to Cabinet officers.
By some the arst section Of that law Is inter-
preted a, applying only to members Of Cabinet
actually appointed by Mr.. JOHNSON, and as Mr.
STANTON never received formal nomination by
the present Executive, his case, 1t Is argued,
does not come within the terms Of the tenure Of
ofice law.

EATIoSAL THEATRE-CAsrE.--Ono Of the
best constructed and most elegantly written
plays we have seen since the production of Peg
Wellington, we saw at the National Theatre
last evening in the exquisite comedy Of Caste
The play was admirably acted, especially the
parts Of Esther and old Eccles by Miss dRRY
and Mr.. ALLEN, and those Of Hawtroe and
Grudge by Me,srs. SHERIDAN and LAND. The
impotuous and loving D'AlrOyd was very well
rendered by Mr.. VANDESuoFP. Lady Dos's
singing, while it pleased tho ear, disPleassd the
taste Of those who had read, seen, or under.
stood the play, and led many to remark that it
could have resulted o-ly from her belonging to
the last named class. Without desiring to be
quite as severe, we still would state that Wash-
ingtoniGns go to see what is advertised; know
1t when they see it, and don't like to mix sugar
(howeyer sweet with horse.radish. 1t was the
only blot on the whole performance, which
otherwise VISA perfect. Her lalyships very
sweet voice will be welcome as flowers in Kenil
worth written for such display. Let her not
drag it from its more proper sphere into isgiti
mate play, the very reverse of singing one.
