WASHINGTON, d. G., March 10, 1885,
The President has refused to receive papers
forwarded TO him from the army headquar.
ters through the War Department, and has
made formal reeucst TO Cen Grant that IN
future all documents which require his at
tention shall be transmitted directly TO the
White House, and not sent through Secre-
tary Stanton's hands. lie has also formally
established War Office in the White House,
and as stated last night, has directed that
In the future all business connected with
the army originating in the Executive branch
of the Government shall be transacted
through his ad interim Secretary, General
Thomas. The widest rumors have been
aaoat to-day regarding the Presidents fu-
ture course, and it has been feared that he
intended to resort to force to oust Secretary
Stanten, but have reason to believe that
they have no foundation save in the facts
given above.
1t is probable that another attempt to
amend the rules adopted by the Senate to
govern the impeachment trial will be made
in that body tomorrow or next day.

The English Press On a'rcsidens
.UOhnsOa.

The London Morning Star says, editorisily
''President johnson seems Determined %
bring the contest between himself ana tne
Legislature to an issue. Having. faileu 70
eptrsp Gen. Grant into an attitude OF nos,
t;lits to Congress, he has at length fssueo
an order. removing Mr.. Stanton from tine
Ministry of War, and appointing AdJutant'
Cen Thomas in his room. MIR. stanton has
referred the matter to Congress, and, mean
time. refuses to give up possession. The
senate has passed resolution declaring the
order of Mr.. johnson illegal, and both the
Senate and House Of Representatives have
requested the Reconstruction Committee to
consider what further action should be
taken. One telegram even states that the
House of Representatives has passed by q
majority a resolution to impeach the Presi
dent for this act of illegallity. 1t is hard to
see how they can avoid such course; and
were it not that the devious ways of Ameri
can politicians on the eve of a Presidential
election are inscrutable, we cannot divine
what President johnson expects to gain by
his willful and defiant course, except to
plunge the country into excitement and
contention. In monarchical State con
fct of this nature would almost necessarily
lead to civil war. There is no fear of such
result in America, simply because Mr.
johnson cannot command ! a man, or a mus
ket, or 81 900. There may be excitement
there may be great impeachment case
there may be State trial before the Su
prcme Court, but the appeal will be to law
not to violence. Mr. johnson evidently ex
poets that if he can drive his adversarie,
into the extreme position of impeaching
him. the more moderate people throughout
the Union will come over to his side. Ii
this we believe be will be mistaken. In the
American community, when the question
fairly comes to the front, whether the view
of the law taken by the House of Legisla
ture or that taken by D1r. Andrew johnson
is to be upheld, the people will side with
their representatives, and send Mr.. Andrew
johnson back to Tennessee. 1t is a pity fo
the great Republic that in place of the firm
ness, combined with wisdom, which distin
guished Mr.. Lincoln, she should now have
in her Chief Magistrate an obstinacy which
keeps the whole nation in turmoil. Th,
contrast at once shows the strength ant
weakness of republican form of govern
ment. The people may be mistaken in thei
choice, but they can also get rid of thei
President if he sets himself above the law
If Mr.. Andrew johnson had been king il
a limited monarchy, he would have run
great chance of losing his head in les
metaphorical fashion than he seems alread,
tn have done !"

water ran along the streets, and many cross.

Easements and cellars was flooded. The
spire Of the First Presbyterian church was
blown down, and portion of the roof taken
off. Several chimneys and small buildings
were demolished. Signs, lumber and spln-
tiers few In all directions. The rain cut
great gullies in the newly made streets and
caused heavy land slides in the streets where
grading is being done. This was the hea.
