FROM WASHINGTON.
Secretary Stanton again Removed.
wv. WASHINGTON. Feb. 81


The determination expressed by the
President a few days since to again re
move Secretary Stanton, was uncxpcct,
cdly fulfilled to-day by his notifying the
Senate, about pr M, that he had ap.
pointed Adjutant General Lorenzo Thorn
rs Secretary Of War AL interim. The
fact caused great excitement throughout
the city. ... ..
The first intimation which Mr.. Stanton
had of his second suspension from office
was at nOon. Gen. Thomas entered his
room, and presented the Presidents or
der. A good natured conversation en-
sued, during which Mr. Stanton said to
Gen. Thomas, " Do You wish me to va
cate at once?" Gen. Thomas replied
"Oh no. have notified the President
of my acceptance of the office You can
get your private papers together, and
turn over the Depal tment to me, say, to-
morrow morning"
Gen Thomas said that he understood
Mr.. Stanton to acqucsce in this, but the
lattcr's friends maintain that he has 40 in
tention whatever of yielding to General
Thomas, except it be to - superior force.
This will probably prove, tomorrow, to
be true. Gen Thomas stated, tonight,
that the Presidents order to him was
military one, and that he shonld certain
ly carry it out "a. r
AS the appointment of an officer al in
terim does not, under the old law, require
the confirmation of the Senate, and, as
the Civil Tenure law declares that the
Senate, when in session, must sustain the
President before any removal can actual
ly be carried out, the particular point of
the President informing that body of this
change was not apparent. In the great
discussion of the event in and out Of Con
g-essional circles, the Presidents friends,
however, answer the inquiry, 10y deciar-
ing that Mr. Johnson pursues this course
to test the validity Of tue Civil Tenure
law in the Courts.
soon after the Presidents Message came
in. and has at this writing been in secret
session five hours discussing the assump
tion Of the President that he can remove
Stanton without the concurrence of the
Senate.
An informal committee was appointed
which included Senators Thayer, CONFESS
and Cameron to wait on Secretary Stan
ton and request him to remain in Office.
This duty they performed between three

ceived an answer from Mr. Stanton which
is understood to be II compliance with
their request
