suspension of Secretary Stanton.

The President on Monday sent q commu.
nication to Hon. Edwin NJ. Stanton sus.
pending him from office as Secretary of War,
and instructing him to transfer all records,
books, &c, in his custody to General L. s.
Grant. The Secretary was at the same time
informed that General Grant had been en-
powered to act as Secretary of War for the
present. communication was at the same
time sent to General Grant authorizing him
to act Secretary al interim, and directing
him at once to enter upon the discharge OF
the duties OF that Office. Shortly after noon
Mr.. Stanton sent reply to the President in
which he denied that without the consent of
the Senate and without legal cause the Exc
cutiye had any right under the Constitution
and law to suspend him from office. Inas.
much, however, rs the General commanding
the Armies Of the United States and mott.
fed HIM that he had accepted the appoint-
mcnt of Secretary of War ad interim, the
Secretary concluded by saying that he had
no alternative but to submit under protest
to superior force. Gen. Grant, therefore,
assumed charge of the Department of War
Ex-Governor Andrew, of Massachusetts,
Gen. Mcclellan and Gen. Steadman are
among those named as the successor al Mr.
Stanton, but Mr.. Andrews friends in Wash
ington assert that he will not accept the po
si,ion.
MORE REMOVALS.
The Tribune's Washington correspondent
writes:
There are many speculations as to whose
turn it will be next. Randall and Seward
are singled out racy generally. In fact it is
the almost universal impression here ;hat
these gentlemen will sever their connection
with the Administration, for the reason that
both are disgusted with the President. See.
rotary Seward has leaned strongly toward
Stanton in all his troubles with the Presi-
dent, and especially in this last one. Mr..
McCulloch is also said to be in bad repute
with johnson, and his resignation also de.
sired. The Washington Star says " Mr..
Stanton leaves the War Department without
any personal regrets, and that for months
past he has remained there in an irksome
position solely in obedience to the expressed
wish Of the great Union party of the coun.
try. The New York Tribune says, editori.
ally, that Mr. Stanton's offence was that
he chose to obey the laws, even if in doing
so he disobeyed the President. The Senate
will determine whether his suspension was
legal and in the meanwhile Mr.. Stanton
has put it on record that he has yielded only
to superior force" The New York Times
says that g Grant supports the plan of Con.
gress, and is in favor of its prompt and Wig
orous enforcement

A RIOT AT A CoLoRED CAMp.-Thc colorcd
people have been holding n camp meeting
in Ramsays woods, near Port Deposit
On Sunday last gang of copperhead row
dies, in emulation of the Centreyile knights,
commenced operations by assaling and beat,
ing, on the camp ground, a oncarmcd sol
der, G. Ii. Alexander, of the Sth district.
They then proceeded, in true chivalry style,
to attack the colored people and break up
their camp. The negroes, however, showed
pluck, and rallying, thrashcd the white row
dies soundly and drove them off with black
eyes and bloody noses. We did not hear
that any firearms were used. This was a
terrible outrage upon the chivalry, foreboding
negro riots and war of races.

IEcoYsIsrENcY.-Prior to the Tennessee

INcoNsIsrENcY.-Prior to the Tennessee
elections, the Bureau man, who managed
affairs in the interest of Brownlow, gathered
a vast horde ofnegroes from all parts Of the
compass and fed them at the Government
expense. Up to the day Of election, this
black mass Of "citizens" ate hog and hopi-
ny ad lib and drank coffee ad inJanituns'
This was done to secure the negro vote.
Mark the sequel. After the negroes had,
performed their part Of the contract and
voted for the sanity Brownlow just as FREE
quently as they pleased and as ignorantly,
the Bureau man babe them go about their
business and shift for themselves.
This conduct the Radicals consider
shrewd and admirable; but when the
planter, whose employees have conspired
against him at the ballot boz, initiates the
Bureau man and bids them look out for
themselves, his conduct is characterized as
barbarous, iuhuman and diabolical-nay
SO utterly depraved and devilish that pious
Thad. Stevens and praise-G od-barebones
Wilson threaten to pour forth the seven

great reaction, is it not astounding that
many Southern people should hold fast to q
decaying party?

General have the honor to submit for

That the State Of Louisiana is registered
in accordance with the act Of Congress, da-
ted March 2, 1867, and the bills supplement
tary thereto. The poll books are nearly
made out, and the Commissioners of Elec-
tons for each polling precinct appointed.
The number Of registered voters will be
slightly over one hundred and twenty
thousand. The State will, in all probable
ty, come in as a Union State.
In accomplishing this registration | have
habno opposition from the masses ofthe
people; on the contrary, much assistance
and encouragement; but from the public
press especially that Of the city OF New
Orleans-and from Office holders and Office
seekers DISTINGUISHED, have met with bit.
terness and opposition.
The greatest embarrassment with which
I have had to contend was the constant ru
mors Of my removal, published nearly eve

serious embarrassment, as it was break

THE RADICAL JUDIc1ARY.-No peo-
pie, says the Memphis Bulletin, have
ever, after long revolutionary strug-
gle, escaped the clutches of just such a
party as that which is now ravaging
the Constitution, and trampling upon
the rights and liberties of the people,
And such parties just as surely die, and
are gibbetted by history for their
crimes, as do the seasons succeed each
other. And their end is always has
tened by the crimes of q brutal, igno-
rant, time-serving and corrupt judica-
ry, such as that to which Radicalism
has given birth.

Pen Picture Of General Brisbin.

The Lock Haven (Pa.) Democrat,
gives the. following pen sketch Of .
man, who Las been seeking notoriety,
made by one who seems to know him
well. It is certainly a very plain spo-
ken and pointed article:
A LION AND A SKUNK.-We publish,
in another place, the correspondence
between James S. Brisbin, captain in
the regular service OF the United States
army, and Admiral Raphael Semmes,
of the late Confederate navy. The cal
ibre Of the two men will be seen at q
glance. Brisbin's letter is the effnsion
Of a low Yankee BLACKBOARD; Semmes'
reply is the epistle of dignifed gen.
tleman. But a mistake was made
Admiral Semmes, who won honorable
fame in all honorable cause, should
never have noticed the insulting letter
of an ill-bred Yankee cur like Brisbin.
But this may be plead in the Admiral's
favor. He didn't know him. He had
never heard Of him. He didn't know
that Brisbin was raised in Boalsburg,
Center county, in this State, that he
never fought a battle in his life, nor
that he secured his appointment as cap
tain in the United States army through
the Vaccinations of Simon Cameron,
once Secretary Of War, and the infer
nalist rascal, with the exception OF Ed
win M. Stanton, that ever disgraced
public position in America. He didn't
know that Brisbin was a nincompoop-
although he might have suspected as
much from his letter. No soldier, no
gentleman, no white man, could have
written such a mess Of contemplate
meanness. Brisbin's letter shows a
dirty, little, low spirit the spunk of a
skunk, that would piddle on the object
| he is not able to annihilate.
If the Admiral can stand the odoF,
there is nothing else to sicken him; for
behind the villainous smell may be de-
tected the contemplate animal, steal
ing of, lest a well directed stone from
the hand Of his adversary may crush
his brainless pate to atoms. Brisbin is
a fool! We say it in all charity, be-
cause we know it, and because we know
him Just as we'll as though we had
wheeled the mud to make him. He is
a natural born fool, and our only as
tonishment is that he has ever been
able to mako anybody believe he was
anything else. Old Governor Letcher,
of Virginia, was once deceived into be.
|lieving that this man was somebody
and now it seems that Raphael Semmes
has been imposed upon in the same
way.
4 We tell the truth when we say to cal
whom it may concern" that James S
Brisbin is man without brains. edu.
cation or manners. He is mushroom
sprung into public position from thu
dirty abolition puddle that now stinkt
| the whole land. His object in writing
to Semmes was to gain notoriety, ani
lis but arepetitien Of the impudence usei
on a former occasion, when he wrote tt
Gov. Letcher. Our regret is that thu
Admiral noticed him. He should have
| treated him with silent contempt. Tha'
is the way he is treated when he comes
) home to Centre county. Nobody think
of showing him any consideration
EEvens the members Of his own party
call him a elbow" andpeople who have
any regard for truth and decency avoit
him as they would a pestilence or
polecat.
