Removal of Secretary stanton.

The country has been startled by the state
ment that the President has requested MIR
Stanton to resign, and Mr.. Stanton having
declined to do so until the meeting of Con-
gress in November, the President has sub
stantially removed him by refusing to recog-
nize him at Cabinet meetings, and by in
structing his subordinatcs not to regard his
orders. These are briefly the facts in the
case.
The National HteHigencer, the rebel organ
of the President, is very harsh in its stric-
lures on Mr. Stanton.
Congress has provided by law that no
member of the Cabinet shall be removed ex-
cept with the concurrence of that body. The
President has, therefore, violated the law
Congress will meet again on the 21st of No
vember. We may then look for definite and
final action on the impeachment question.
The issue between Congress and the President
has at last been clearly and finally made up.
We can not doubt as to the result The
Congress will prevail, and the President will
60 down with his Cabinet and other fol-
lowers.

Correspondence OF the New York Tribune.

WASHINGTON, Aug 5, 1857.
Ihere is no longer any necessity for specu-
lation as to the purpose of the President
with reference to Mr. Stantons continuing
In the Cabinet Mr.. johnson, this morning,
notified him in writing that his resignation
as Secretary of War would be acceptable
So far, Mr.. Stanton has not been heard from
on the subject, but his friends say he will
resign, and that he is preparing a written
response to the note of the President In
case Mr.. Stanton goes out of the Cabinet
Gen. Grant will be appointed to perform
the duties of Secretary of War until the
President shall have time to consider who
he will name as the successor of Mr.. Stanton.
The rupture between the President and
Secretary Stanton is still the chief topic of
conversation here. Stanton's friends, who
have been with him to-day, state that he
gives out that he will not resign. He says
that if the President wishes to get rid of
him, he will have to do so by violating the
law and removing him, for that he will never
yield. On the other hand, the Johnson men
who claim to be posted as to the Presidents
opinion, assert that he, the President, will
remove or suspend Stanton if he refuses to
resign. The contemplated removal of She
idan is lost sight of since it has become
known that johnson has stated that Stanton
must go first, and all interest is conferred in a
climax to the Johnson Stanton quarrel The
White House and War Department poll
t1cians are very active. Stanton has been
run down with visitors most of the day.
Since writing the foregoing we learn that
certain friends of Mr.. Stanton who called on
him to-day say he assured them he would
not resign.

REGISTRATION IN TIE CAROLINAs.

We publish in the first column of this page
a copy of Major General Sickles' order pre-
scribing rules and regulations for registra-
ton in the two States composing his COM
mand. The great public importance Of the
political proceedings under the acts of Con-
gress, of which it fixes the manner and the
form, cannot fail to invest it with interest
but in addition to this claim to attention it
is marked by characteristic features which
seem to deserve special notice. One of the
first things which will strike the reader in
perusing this document is the evidence of
elaborate care in its preparation afforded by
the completeness and symmetry of its frame
work, and the perspicuity and precision of
its diction. But the merit of the method
and expression is not greater than the wis
dom of its provisions. 1t is manifest that
General Sickles has studied with great care
and minuteness the several laws under which
he is to act. and if any foresight can provide
for carrying them out, in letter and spirit, so
as to meet every contingency which may
arise in their execution, it would seem that
so far as they relate to- registration, this Or
der will accomplish that end The delay in
commencing registration in this district
proves to have been highly judicious, and is
now found to be material advantage to
General Sickles, in that he is not under the
necessity of conforming past proceedings to
the requirements of new enactments, and
consequently has nothing to undo. He also
enjoys the benefit of observing the experience
of the five other district commanders, and
can thus proceed with more instructed COM
prehension of the business in hand.
Among the provisions of this order that
appear to be worthy of especial mention are
those Of paragraph III, which denounce in
reference to prevent registry; of paragraph
V, which refer to offences committed by
whites disguised as blacks; of paragraph
XVII, which specifies the details ofregistra-
ton and of paragraph (which contains
provision looking to making localities re-
sponsible for local disorders.
1t is to be remembered that some of the
registrars will be inexperienced or dull For
every board this order will be complete
handbook. Mistakes seem scarcely possible
For the guidance of subordiu ate officials,
every regulation is laid down; while the gen
eral spirit of the whole affords to the country
a gratifying guarantee that the work of re-
construction is beng done in good faith by
the commander of the Second Military Dis
trict- Wash. Ghron

THE. SLAVE LASH Observation-Disclosures
TREATMENT OF A CoLoRED GIRL.
A Cincinnati paper publishes the follow
ing:
In the vicinity of Lebanon, KY, few
days since, colored girl was sent on an er-
rand to the house of one Wythrow, whose
wife was at the time repairing an old dress.
After the girl had returned home, Mr.. Wy
throw discovered-or rather thought she
did-that one breadth of the dress-skirt was
missing, and the conclusion was at once ar
rived at that Mrs Dorsey's servant-girl had
taken it. The husband Norwan Wythrow,
Immediately went over to Dorsey's and ac-
cused the girl of the theft. She denied the
charge and protested her innocence in the
strongest terms. The house Was then search
ed from roof to cellar, but the missing artic-
lie was not found. Wythrow not being sat
isfied, however, the mother of the accused
girl offered to pay for the property supposed
to be stolen, the value of which was about
30 cents. Wythrow refused her offer, at the
same time declaring that he = would take 1t
out of her id hide" No one being pres
ent who was able to resist him, he took
pillow line, and tied it to the girls wrists,
took hold of one end himself, got on his
horse and rode off at a brisk trot, compell-
ing the girl to follow on foot. In this way
he pulled and dragged her two miles out
into the woods, where he was joined by his
brother, and the two men fastened one end
of the rope around the girls neck-after
having stripped her naked-then threw the
other end over the limb of tree, drew her
up so that her feet barely rested on log.
which they had placed there, and in that po-
sitien whipped her until they had worn out
16 green withes. They took the girl away
from her home early in the morning, and
she did not get back until late in the even
ing. Persons who saw her say that she was
bruised and Scared from head to foot. The
Wythrows were next day arrested by Uni
ted States officers, and brought before the
District Court. This act, though one of the
mort barbarous that rebel diab olism has in
vented, is not isolated in Kentucky. With
in the last two weeks no less than 16 arrests
have been made in that State, by officers of
the Freedmen's Bureau, of white persons
charged with whipping and beating ne
groes.

! Prospects of the Republican Party.
We are rejoiced to have it in our power to
state that the prospects of the Republican
party in this State are of the most encourag-
ing character The recent action of Congress,
and the result of the election in Tennessee,
have rendered it certain that the State will
be restored to the Union as soon as Con-
vention can be held and the necessary steps
taken to give effect to the reconstruction
| acts.
Opposition to reconstruction is abating in
this State, from three causes First, because
of the united and enthusiastic front present
ed by the colored people in favor of Repub-
lcan principles The disunion leaders now
admit that the entire colored vote will be
cast against them. Secondly, because thou
sands of white voters, not yet of the Repub-
lcan party, are tired of the present condition
of things, and anxious to secure repose and
mend their fortunes by restoring the State to
the Union. Thirdly, because Of the fear en-
tertained by the disunion leaders and large
landholders that if the people of the State
fail to avail themselves of the present recon-
struction acts, terms much more stringent
will be imposed by the Congress. We are,
therefore, on the high road to reconstruction.
The State will most most probably be i'll
full connection with the federal government
by the 1st day of April, 1868. We shaUha
a Convention arhOSe action acill ensure this
result.
1t is nevertheless highly important that
the Republicans of the State should exert
themselves zealously, and leave nothing I'M
done to accomplish this great result. Let
the work of organization 90 on. Let har-
mony and good feeling prevail. Let every
loyal voter be registered, and let the best
men be brought out for the Constitutional
Convention. Our adversaries are only appa-
rently subdued. They are still united in
their hatred to the government and to the
friends of liberty. Their only hope now is
to divide the Republicans and throw on them
the responsibility of failure to reconstruct,
if such should, unfortunately, be the result.
Let us disappoint them in this, as in all
other respects, and carry the State back on
such basis and with such spirit as will
render the government permanent, and open
the way for a return of prosperity to our
people

Criminal Court of Wilmington.

We copy below, from the Wilmington
Daily Post, the facts in relation to the sus-
pension of Jury trials in the Criminal Court
of that town:
MILITARY us. CIVIL LAw.-The first case
which has arisen in this county of conflict
in Court between the civil laws of the State,
and the published orders of the General
Commanding, occurred here yesterday. Be-
fore the Criminal Court which is in session
at this place, Judge Meares presiding, two
colored men were arraigned on the charge
of fighting The Counsel for the prisoner,
Maj. j. L. Rhoades, challenged the whole ar
ray of jurors, on the ground that the panel
had not been formed in accordance with the
Military Reconstruction bill and with Gen.
Sickles order The Court overruled the
plea of the challenger, asserting that it knew
no law but that of the State of North Car
olina
The defendant on trial was convicted, and
was sentenced to pay fine and the COSTS
The Counsel then asked that an appeal be
granted from the. judgment of the Court to
that of the Post Commandant, or until the
will of Gen. Sickles could be known. This
was refused by the Court with the reply that
it knew of an appeal to no power, but to
that of the Supreme Court of Law.
In THIS matter IL must De stated GnaC Judge
Meares acted in perfect conformity with his
oath of office
The explanatory facts in regard to this
matter are simply these. A week ago, in
anticipation of the holding of this Court,
Judge Meares and Sheriff Bunting called
upon Col. Frank to consult regarding Jurors
for this term. But as those Jurors had been
already selected att previous session of the
County Court in obedience to the require
ments of the laws of the State of North
Carolina, COL Frank telegraphed to General
Sickles for instructions, but received no re-
ply. The following kilograms passed last
evening, and need no explanation:

Tennessee.

The Republican majority in Tennessee is
not less than 10000. This is a glorious re-
suit for the country. Tennessee now has a
State government: faction has been rebuked
and silenced, and the State will continue to
prosper. The white vote is said to be about
equally divided Only about 1900 colored
votes in the entire State were cast against
the Republicans. 1t does not look like a
white or black mans party, when half the
white vote of State, with nearly the entire
colored vote is thrown for the Republicans.
1t only proves what we have all along said,
that the colored people know who their
friends are.
The disunion presses of Tennessee are
much distressed at the result, and dwell sor-
rowfully on the " degradation" OF being gov
erned by the colored vote. This is but a
repetition of the fable of the fox and the
grapes. These disunionists made every eff
fort to obtain the colored vote, but failing
to do so, the grapes are sour" The color
ed people would be "patriots, and highly
intelligent citizens" if they would only vote
with the enemies of the government, but when
they show their good sense and their appre-
citation of their own liberties by declining to
do so, they are at once denounced as 'degra-
ded barbarians." Very well, the colored
people can stand this if their enemies can.
1t is stated that Gov Brownlow has said
he will recommend to the Legislature of
Tennessee a repeal of the test-oath. What
the Governor said has no doubt been misun-
derstood. 1t is not his purpose yet to let IN
the great body of the rebels as voters. But
the Tennessee test-oath is very stringent. 1t
excluded at the late election not less than
10000 of as good Republicans as there
are in that State. His purpose is doubtless
to modify the oath so as to let these citizens
vote. We trust it will be done. The Ten
nessee test oath is more severe and searching
then it probably should be. The best model
of test-oath we have yet seen is the oath
contained in the bill introduced by Mr..
Stevens, in December last, to provide civil
government for North Carolina. 1t is known
as the Stevens-Pool test-oath.
1t will be seen by the accounts we publish
to-day, that there were serious disturbances,
occasioned by the rebels, in West Tennessee
on the day of the election. But for the pres
ence of troops there would have been gen.
eral massacre of the Union whites and col
ored people The same devilish feeling is
encouraged in this State by the Sentinel and
other disunion papers.

Telegram received: If you are satisfied
that the jurors have not been drawn and

second (snD of General Order 80, you will
