The President replied that that could
not alter the case, as the.offencc charg-
ed would still be the removal OF Mr.
Stanton-an act performed beft g tne
passage of tho proposed law.
In reply to an inquiry as 10 whether
the President had seen General nona as
since the interview OF tho latter with
Mr.. Stanton, the President said Yes,
aud proceeded to state what, accord
inc to his information, had occurred at
that interview. General Thomas, he
said, waited upon Mr. Stanton and
showed TO him the Presidents order
removing Mr.. Stanton, apd appointing
him General Thornas) as Secretary of
War ad interim. Mr.. Stanton read the
order and asked Thomas whether he
would he obliged to vacate the office
forthwith. Thomas said his instruc-
tions were to assume control imme-
diately. Stanton then said that he
would like to have time to
arrange and take away his papers and
documents, to which Mr.. Thomas re-
piled that considerable time would be
allowed for such purposes. No time,
however, was fixed for Mr.. Stanton to
finish engagements. 30
The President repeatedly expressed
his utter indifference as to what course
Congress might adopt on the impeach-
ment question, and in an answer to a
parting remark of your correspondent
that the President might sleep soundly
in spite of the threatened impeachment,
he said laughing, 81 don't think my
slumbers will be much disturbed by
that fear, 1 shall sleep souudly and
awake refreshed"
