that the President mad not fully determined
The President said that he had decided to
remove General. Howard soon, and wished

suitable. He intimated by his manner that
Mr.. Langs ton could have the position if he
wouid accept it. He gave him week TO con.

ton with the President, and aaiked the Gener-
ais advice 40 to his acceptance Of the position
General Grant replied that, under the cir,
cumstances, he considered It In every respect
unadvsible for Langston to accept the place
OF commissioner; that il General Howard
were removed, Mr.. Langston could not hope
to give greater satistaction in the administra.
tion OF the affairs OF the Bureau: that he was
Juily SdtIsHeQ Ienerdi howard naQ done his
best, and had committed no act which would
not bear rigid scrutiny; but il he (tirant) were
to remain Secretary of War, and Langston
should be appointed. he would aid HIM to the
best OF his ability. General Grant, in conclu.
sion, said nothing had been said TO him about
the removal OF General How ard: but IL it were
accomplished. for reasons already stated, it
would be inexpedient and of no practical bene-
lit iothe colored race for Mr.. Langston to ac-
cept the POSITION.
MT Langston then urged General Grant to
dc all he could to have General Howard re-
tanned for the good OF the colored people, as
ne Was satisfied he had been their true friend,
and stated that, looking to the good of the COL
ored people and to the interest of the Govern.
msnt, he conld not consent to accept the po-
sitiQn, and that he would not accept 1t for the
further reason that he fully believed 1t to be
offered to facilitate the removal OF General
Howard, and to embrace the best Interests OF
his race.
In this connection it is proper TO state that
during the interview between Mr.. Langsron
and johnson, the latter said that he felt com.
PEELED to remove General Howard, and de-
nounced HIM in the very earnest terms. He in
tlmated that the removal would occur very
soon, and was particularly urgent in his de-

A SHOCKING OCCERgRNCE-On Sunday
morning, the 18th instant, short time before
daylight, very melancholy affair occurred
near Leavensworth, in Darlington district
south Carolina the particulars of which are as
follows:
Mr.. Peter Mclve who lives in the Leayens-
worth neighborhocd, had been for some time
past troub with rogues depredatIng among
his poultry, and on the night in question, il
seems Mr.. and Mrs. Mclver were both wake
1ul and apprehensive of harm. Mrs. McIver,
unknown to the family, had gotten up and gone
into the yard. no one knew why or wherefore,
and MIR. McIver hearing some noise out there
awoke his son-a young man nearly grown
and told bin some one was out in the ward
The son took his gun and went to the yard. and
seeing some strange object near where the
fowls were. shot At random in that direction
and saw the object fall. He then went 20 the
house and told his father that he had shot
some person down, and about the same time
the cook woman came in ana said some one
was hurt near the fowl-house Upon going
there the DIRE adful truth burst upon the arou sed
household, that Mrs. McIver was shot in a
vital part OF her body by her own son. One
shot penetrated the brain, but she was able TO
speak, but not fully conscious of her situa-
tion, as she labored under the impression that
somebody had struck her q blow upon her
head. Physicians were promptly sent for
who pronounced the case hopeless Mrs
McIver lived about three hours after receiving
the wound.
