Stanton and the Order Directing Banks to SUI
@ persedc General Grant. BIS e
Mr.. Stanton authorizes the statement
that he did not issue ar order directing
Banks to supersede Gra:!>, rs mentioned in
these dispatches last =. However this
may be, the order vas ,csio the control of
Mr.. Stanton as Secretal y,u War. A few
days will determine the controversy. doubt
less, as it is expected that copies of the
papers containing the order, the originals of
which, it is alleged, were distracted from
the files of the War Department, will be
published. If the current report be cor
rect, General Banks has copies Of the origi-
nal papers. ? Until this subject receives
further Investigations, which it will di-
rectly, it may be well to withhold other
pertinent facts, now known, that give the
real feelings entertained by Stanton to-
wards Grant at the time mentioned.
Rejection of Mr.. SwitZler's Claims TO n Seat
in the House. -,
The action of the House this afternoon
in rejecting the claims of Mr.. Switzler to
his seat as representative from Missouri
and awarding the seat to Mr.. Anderson has
caused great deal of severe comment, and
surprised alike Republicans and Demo-
Gratis. At the last session of Congress the
Committee on Elections unanimously re-
ported that Mr.. Switzler was legally elected.
The case was recommitted, and few days
ago the committee again reported that Mr..
Switzler is entitled to the seat, two mem
bers only dissenting. In the face of these
facts, and notwithstanding the remon-
STRANGE of Judge Poland, Mr.. Cook, and
other Republicans, the House decides to
give Anderson the seat.
M Miscellaneous.
General Grant has written letter to the
Inauguration managers recommending them
to give up the idea of ball on the 4th Of
March. The ball will therefore not take
place.

bill repeating the southern States militia
law.
Admiral Farragut end wife and Attor-
ney- General Eyarts and wife accompanied
General Grant to Baltimore to-day.
Mrs. Patterson and Mrs. Slower, the
Presidents daughters, and their children,
went to New York to-day for short visit
to friends.
The House committee on election frauds
in New York have before them fifteen hun
dred pages of manuscript evidence for con-
sideration. The committee expect to report
finally next week. The general opinion of
members is that the report will recommend
some material alterations in the naturaliza-
ton laws.
The Judiciary Committee of the House
are reported as favorable to Mr.. Randall's
bill forbidding the refunding Of taxes, ETC.,
by the Commissioner of Internal Revenue
