epecial telegram to the Dispatch
AsliINGToN, November Information
has been received here that Sir Edward
Thornton has really been appointed by the
British Government Minister to the United
States. Sir Edward holds the matter
under advisement, and the English Govern
ment Is awaiting his acceptance or declina-
ton.
The President has not yet been able to
select from the applicants a suitable per-
son to fill the Office of Solicitor of the In
ternal Revenue Bureau. Mr.. Sloanaker,
of Philadelphia, has been named by some
of the papers as the probable appointee !;
but there is authority for saying that he
has not been considered by the Executive
in connection with that position, and that
be will not receive the appointment.
Chief Justice Chase left here this morn

Of armed organizations formed without
authority of law, and for purposes which
have not been communicated to the Gov
eminent. Being at the present time unne-
cessary for the preservation of order or the
protection of the civil authority, they have
excited serious apprehensions as to their
real design. You will therefore take eff:
cient steps for promptly disbanding and
suppressing all such illegal organizations
This order is dated last Monday the 4tt
instant, and applies to all armed militar!
organizations, whether composed of ne
groes or white men.
General Grant reports that, besides the
companies composed of colored men, Their,
are four companies of white citizens, who's
organizations are likewise unauthorized.
