Eg The Washington correspond

A17 Lt w
ent of the New York Tribune says:
"The President denies having ex-
pressed any intention of suspending
good, competent officers in Missis-
sippi simply and only for their SYM
pathy with either wing of the Repub-
lican party. He will remain neutral,
unless further developments demand
intervention"
In conversation with prominent
Radical of this State, recently return
ed from Washington City, and who
was there in the interest of the lad
zeal party, and to secure the removal
of Conservative Republicans, ill re-
ply to this question from us, Naat
did you urge against Wofford to Sc
cure his removal y he replied, " No
thing but that he is Conservative
Republican, and opposed to Ames'
administration" In reply to "What
did you charge against him, to effect
the removal of q. Gordon Adam 81
he replied, q did not cause the re-
moyal of Adam. | refused to have
ANYTHING to do with his removal.
But he was removed from no other
cause than that he is bolter.'
We then asked who ordered their
removal. He replied, "The Presi-
dent alone had the power TO act and
did alone act in WoffOrd's case.
.Iudge IIoar refused to act in Adams
case, without permission from Grant,
to whom he referred the matter, and
hence you may say they were both
removed hv the President" And
vet Gen. Amcs has the temerity to
say that he is not " suspending good,
competent officers in Mississippi sim
ply and only for their sympathy with
either wing Of the Republican party"
