Interesting Correspondence Between Gen.
Grant and the President
THE REMOVAL OF GEN. SHERIDAN
NEW York. Auo

A Washington dispatch says Gen. Hancock
NAV even yet get command of the 9th Military
District should certain contingency occur.
The order as promulgated to-day is somewhat
different from that which was at first prepared

terests of the country at large. He believed
that the American people desired their consti-
tuition should be Obeyed, and he believed Gen.
Sheridan's administration of the 9Th District
as not according to the spirit or intent of the
constitution. NlLlL 1 5a
Gen. Grant attended the Cabinet meeting
to-day and harmonized pretty freely with other
advisers of the President. .o

be the next victim to the Presidential gullot-
