GENERAL THOMAS AT THE WAR DE-
PAkTMENT.
He Makes no Demand for the Office

Mr.. Stanton remained at the War Depart
ment last night where he was visited by a
number of friends. This morning, soon after
the Department was opened, he began to
ceiye visitors, and for a time his room was
ull. II was expected that General Thomas
would make another demand for the office this
morning, and no donbt many were drawn there
10 see how he would be received. AT fifteen
minutes past eleven o'clock General Thoma.
entered The building and Immediately proceeded
10 the room of Assistant Adjutant General
Townsend, where he received his private lei
tells and then went 10 The room of General
Carr, where be remained about fl ifteen minutes.
He then went up stairs and into the ante-room
upon W hich the Offices of Mr.. Stanton and Gen.
Shriyer opened. As soon as he entered the door
of the ante loom was locked, and a number of
persons gathered about the hall expecting that
General Thomas had gone to Mr. Stinton's
room and made another demand for the War
Department, but such was not the case. He
went TO the room of General Shriver only, for
remained but lew minutes, and did not see
Mr.. Stanton. General Thomas then visited one
or two other rooms in the building, and ABOUT
twelve O'Clock left without making any de-
mand upon Mr.. Stanton-who was in his room
with several fIiends-to surrender the Depart
ment
The room of the djutaut General Is kept
locked, and has been since Friday last, with
the key in Mr.. Stanton's possession, bat he has
expI ssed his wilhn gness to surrender the KEY
TO General Thomas when he requests the same
as Adjutant General of the army.

parchment would be presented to the House At
one o'clock. 1t is given out that there will be
six articles OF impeachment reported;-1st de

THE POSITION OF THE PRESIDENT
TO CONGRESS DURING IMPEACH.
MENT.

We stated some days ago that it was quite
certain that no attempt would be made to sus-
pend the President while under trial for in
parchment. The apprehension that the at
tempt would be made by Congress and resisted
by the President, has caused much of the fever
'shncss in the public mind. We learn, how.
ever, that while it Will not be undertaken to
formally suspend the President, it is held in
Republican circles, that from the moment he
is formally impeaehed, his position towards
congress is that Of a prisoner towards judge
"Td jury, and that they can have no legislative
communication with him while the trial is in
pro.t The President will then be tabooed
by Congress much the same as Mr.. Stanton is
