Stirring Times at Washington.


The publication of the Correspondence
between Gen. Grant and the President, and
the course Of Mr.. johnson thereon has crea-
ted quite an excitement in political circles
at Washington, and even the hot weather
of the past week has failed to prevent men
from pitching into the melee. We publish
in another place, Gen. Grants clear concise,
patriotic letter, to which we call the atten-
ton of all who have been tempted to say
and think harsh things of the General for
the present position of quasi appointed of Mr..
Johnson The Chicago 1ribune'S Wash
ington dispatch of yesterday says;
Another aud very pointed correspondence
has been going on between the President
and General Grant to day. johnson early
in the day sent Grant directions to issue an
order sending Hancock to Louisiana, and
directing Sheridan to proceed to Missouri
Upon receiving this General Grant wrote a
letter to johnson setting forth tho most co
gent reasons why the interests Of the ser
vice would suffer by making the change at
present, and otherwise protesting There
is no Disgusting the fact that in all loyal
circles, very grave complications are expec-
ted. A rupture bet~ cen the President and
General Grant is considered imminent, arts
ing from the latter refusing to yield any
portion of power Congress has conferred on
hisn
In addition to this there was a ruinor
that all the cabinet ministers had sent in
their designations on Monday last, which
increased the ex element to almost fever
heat A few days will probably settle the
questions at present so exciting.

Ed. TELEGRAPH:
On Saturday last the tNational Labor Con-
gress'' which was convened in this city con
cluded its session and its sixty four delegates,
after meeting in the Park, which gave them
a chance to blow off whatever steam they had
left, wendell their way homeward. During
their session they did a great deal which re-
minded me of VIM. Lloyd Garrison's satirical
proposition once in an Anti Slavery Conven-
ton to 'send a missionary to the man in the
moon" They were all no doubt well meaning
people but unfortunately seemed to know as
little of the most feasible means of attainment
of their professed end as an opossum knows
of conchology. Their resolution to demand
s25, 00O,O 600 from the General Government for
the benefit of laborers without distinction of
sex, color or beauty" was a thing to furnish
laughter to a world Their persistent endeav-
or to get blood out of the eight-hour turnip
is also funny enough to choke a sexton, while
their plunge into political economy in demand
ing that the Southern states should be at once
restored, somehow, anyhow or no-how to
their proper status in the Union so that we
might have cheap cotton, and their proposi
ton to send labor missionaries over to organ
ize properly the benighted down trodden, &c,
laborers of the old world were positively, out
rageously facetious. The daily papers here
were cruel enough to publish full reports of

Gen. Grants Protest againt the Removal Of
Gen. Sheridan.
We have not space for the full cores

which has been published, but we cannot

admirable letter of Gen Grant on the sub

of the United States:
SIR 81 am in receipt of your order of

any suggestions you may deem necessary
respecting the assignments to which the
order refers"
| am pleased to avail myself of this invi-
tation to urge, earnestly urge, in the name
of patriotic people, who have sacrificed
hundreds of thousands of lives and thous.
ands of millions of treasure to preserve the
integrity and union of this country, that
this order should not be Insisted upon 1t
is Enthusiastically the expressed wish of the
country that Gen. Sheridan should not be
removed from his present command. This
is republic where the will of the people is
the law of the land. beg that their voice
may be heard. Gen. Sheridan has perform

an effort to defeat the laws of Congress 1t

STATE SUPERINTENDENT. We believe il
is generally conceded that the present hon
est and efficient State officers should be re-
taiued in the management of our State af-
fairs for another term. We notice that a
special effort is being made by portion of
the opposition press to create prejudice
against Col. McMynn, the present able Su-
perintendent of Public instruction. We al
SO hear it stated by some of the Colonel's
friends, that he will not consent to take the
office now for another term. Now, we con-
slider Col. McMynu, from long experience.
as well as eminent qualifications, the lead
ing educator of our State, if not the repre-
sentative man Of our system of public edu-
cation. Thus believing, and with the full.
est faith in his honor and integrity, in spite
of the misrepresentation of personal enc
mics. we think the public educational inter
ests of the State demand his re- election. We
hope therefore if the convention, as we
presume it will, offers the nomination to
Col. McMynn, he will not decline. We
believe he would be elected by an over
whelming majority.

With this number closes our connection
with the Kenosha Telegraph. The business OF
the office-the subscriptions, advertising and
job work-the debts and credits-up to the
present week, win be settled by us. With
many thanks to the people of Kenosha and
the public generally for past favors, we can
but express the hope that the same will con.

the Milwaukee Nes7s after having the mask
of duplicity and discrimination torn from

exclaims ''thou canst not say did it :"
The extracts we published last week, from
the Kenosha Democrat while edited by one
of the present editors of the NeUs, who drew
his editorial inspiration from, and in all
things enjoyed the sympathy of his present
colleague, creates perfect panic in the NewS
sanctum, and like many other pot-house
politicians, when cornered they attempt to
shield their own rottenness by throwing
slime and filth at us And after all to com
pletely justify our whole course i'll the mat
ter, they make lame attempt to justify
what they cannot deny, by claiming that
the ideas set forth in the extracts quoted
emanated from Lincoln, Seward or Greeley.
Is it not little singular that the editors of
the NeUS should have felt constrained to
follow Lincoln to his grave with their bitter
enmity if the propositions which they both
made their particular and pet hobby before
end all through war, emanated from him !!
