NEW YORK, Sept. 14.-The Worlds
Washington special says: The Govern
ment has received intelligence that the
Radicals in Maryland contemplate the in
auguration of scheme at the election on
the 18th inst, when the new State Consti-
tuition is to be submitted for ratification,
which will surely lead to riot and blood
shed. Under the assumption that a COL
ored man has as much right to vote in
Maryland as he has in Virginia. the more
desperate Radical leaders in the former
State are urging the colored men to present
themselves at the polls and demand the
right to vote on the new Constitution.
The so-ealled Border State Convention,
which assembled at Baltimore to-day,
evidently means mischief in that direction.
Prominent conservative citizens of the
State have been here to-day, among them
ex-Gov. Pratt, comforting with the officials
on the impending trouble. The State au-
thorities feel confident of being able to
preserve the peace, but it is not improb-
able that Gov. Swami will have to call on
the general Government for aid, to be furn-
ished in the manner prescribed 10 the Con-
stitution. Ht-
Dismissed Army Officers,
A number of ex-officers of the army who
have suffered dismissal from service by the
arbitrary course of Stanton, are here pre-
senting their cases to General Grant. In
the majority of circumstances, the facts in
their favor are so overwhelming that they
will be reinstated and then honorably mus
tered out.
Secretary McCuIIoch.
The Times special says if the President
will only permit Secretary McColloch~ to
remain in his present position the ques-
ton OF the finances will not long be mat
ter of uncertainty. The plan which he has
put in operation will, if not opposed. work
out successful results by its own inherent
force.
Gen. Mcclellan to Remain Abroad.
The personal friends of General MeClel-
Ian here assert that although he may have
been requested by telegraph to return, he
has no idea of doing so; that on the con-
trary he has just determined to remain
abroad another year, and has taken house
and made arrangements for the tuition of
his children accordingly. a
a4 5# General Candy.
Private letters from reliable sources in
Charleston received here, assert that Gen.
Candy has fully determined to pursue the
line of policy marked out by Gen. Sit kles,
and to enforce the system of orders, rules
and regulations which he has established.
1t is well known that Gen. Sickles had
instituted for the people of his district,
code of laws and regulations which they
almost unanimously admitted were more
lust and beneficial in their operation than
any that had been vouchsafed them by
legislative authority for many years.
Cabinet Changes.
The Tribune's special says: There is a
runor In circulation tonight that Presi-
dent johnson designs making an immedi-
ate change in the War Department.. 1t is
said that Frank p. Blair, Jr., will be put in
the Office until General Mcclellan is heard
from. The President has stated that Gen.
Grant shall have new trial. Grant
favors it. 'da 't
