The New Commanders.

We have the following newspaper
rumors as to the views of the sue
cessors of Generals Pope and ORD,
removed by order of the President.
In the present stage of Reconstruc-
ton, their influence and views are
very important to the peace of
the South and early settlement of
those vexed questions. The special
correspondent of the Cincinnati Com
neercial. on Friday, telegraphed:
General Meade will be here to-mor-
row TO confer with the President
and General Grant before proceeding
to Atlanta, Georgia, to assume com
mand of the Fourth Military Dis
trict. 1t is generally agreed that-the
President has requested General
Meade to follow up the new policy
inaugurated by General Hancock, but
the friends Of Meade say that he-will
do nothing of the kind.
OF the displacement of Gen. ORD
and the appointment of General
MCDOWELL, we have the following
from the Washington correspondent
of the New York Times:
:" cannot state the particular rea-
sons which have led General Grant to-
desire the removal of General Ord,
but those who have closely watched
the administration of the latter have
probably not iailed to. observe certain;
pecuiiarities and inconsistencies Of ac-
ton, indicating that the scope of the
command was rather beyond his cali
ber The Seatus of affairs in his dis
tric6 at the present time is not re-
garded as very promising. OF Gen.
Mcdowell, 1T can only be saidithat
he has always been regarded as an
officer OF excellent administrative
ability, and politically he was, at,the
close of the war, one of the most out
spoken and Radicaf men IN the army
