WASHINGTON, August 6.-The Presi-
dent has written letter to Secretary
Stanton requesting him to resign his
position in the Cabinet Stanton is pre-
pairing his response, questioning the
Presidents power to make such a re-
quest. Tits understood that the Presi
dent has resolved to remove Stanton
should he not resign, and thendecapitate
Sheridan. l4-t
1t is understood that President John
son unequivocally denies the report re-
gsrding his action upon the papers and
finding of the court in the assassination
trial. They were first submitted to
athe Cabinet, and then he signed his ap.
proval. He says the official record was
presented to him by Gen. Holt, and he
says it was signed in his presence; that
at that time no recommendation for the
Communication of the sentence of Mrs,
Surratt was attached to the papers. The
approval of the sentence by the President
was commissioned on the next to the last
page of the next sheet of averment, and
finished on the other side of the
same paper instead Of only writing
on one side of the sheet, las
in the other sheets, and this was done
because there was no other sheet remain
ing, and fastened to the document, pre-
sented it for his signature, as the docu-
ment can now be found in the War
department as the recommendation for
Communication. Mrs. STRAITS sentence
follows all other matter, and is eonclu-
sive document 10 the official report of the
trial Of Beene Pittman, who had access
to the, records and documents by per-
mission. Mr.. Stanton proposes maxi
ing up the book. Everything APP

Of the Court for the commu-
tation of the sentence Mr. Pittman
says in the introductory of his book that
it contains all the orders, findings, SEN
fences, documents, etc., connected with
