GEN. pLEAsoNToYs STATEMENT.
Neic- York, July 20, 1872.

A TRIBUNE reporter called upon Gen. Alfred
Pleasonton and obtained the following statement:
About weeks after entering upon the duties OF the
Office OF Commissioner Of Internal Revenue at Washing
ton January 1871 Gen. Pleasonton had an interview
with President Grant In the OF conversation the
President introduced the santo Domingo question, and
remarkng that he understood that Senator schuz was
opposed TO the treaty, asked Gen. Peasonton to see
Senator schurz and tell him that he would call at the
White House the President would be able to place the
santo Domingo matter in satisfactory light, and could
remove his objections to the scheme. In fur
Their conversation with the President, Gen Pleasonton
was led TO understand that the President would, in
exchange for Senator Schurzs support Of the santo
Domingo Treaty, accord him share OF public patron
age Gen Pleasonton says his impressions on this point
are very distinct and unmistakable. Thus authorized
Gen. Pleasonton Senator schurz, and Informed nm
of the Presidents wish him. Senator schurz replied
that he would call any time he might designate for an
interview Gen. PeasOntOn saw the President the next
day. and informed him OF the Senator's reply, at which
he EXPRESSED his qualification and stated that he would
send for Senator schurz In few days The interview
was not had.
Some weeks later when it seemed to be assured that
Senator schurz opposed the treaty Gen. PeasontOn re-
ceiyed memorandum slip from the President, directing
the removal of Senator sohuzs brotherinaw Jussen,
from the office of Collector of Internal Revenue at CHI
cago- at once" The unusual nature OF this imperative
removal attracted Gen. Pleasonton's attention, and he
asked the President to suspend action for some weeks,
but the President said that he regretted that ho could
not do So as he had promised to remove the man at
once. new appointment was made upon the recon-
mendation Of Senator Logan and Congressman Fmwel.
This action impressed Gen. Pleasonton with the Deef
that political patronage considered OF more lmpor
,arca t that time than the immediate necessities or the
nnblio service Subsequently, and shortly before Gen.
Peasonons departure for Europe, Senator schur5 adj
dressed him letter. asking for his recollection and Inn
pressons Of the conversation in which the President de-
sired him to call upon the Senator and open negotiations
"a mentioned Gen Peasonton responded in the letter
which Senator schurz has made public.

CoNKLING's COARSE ASSERTIONS.
From The Springfield RepIbIhan.
Other Senators were approached Just as Alr.
Schurz says he was approached. Some OF them were
proof they will probably feel called upon To relate
their experience Others proved more compliant ana
alive 70 their own INTERESTS" we have as yet 10 hear
the complaint from them OF failure on the part or
the President to redeem the promises made by his hypO
hetcal agent The abuse OF the patronage at that e
and for that purpose shameless and scandaous In
the last degree. Mr. Sumner directly offered the
English mission by Secretary Fish Mr. Camer0ns eyes
opened the advantage OF the projected annexa
ton by the actual bestOwal OF similar honor upon
member Of his family. That Mr. SchurZ was approached
he says he was, no who knows anything about
this heightened and truthful gentleman Will Tor mo
doubt That he had ample reason, under all CIR
cunstances, for believing the bid came from Gen. Grant
II equally unquestionable. And that he would nave
6een placed Ia Possession OF the promised patronage
he had given the required consideration, Is, at east
apt and Of great credit."
&Ihere another denial, however. The telegraph
reports Senator Conking as saying OF Mr.. schqrzs
assertion The man who says that, lies anu am
responsible for the statement" 10 not clear whether
the remark was made publicly In private converse,
uon In either case IL was wholly uncalled for ana
brutal IL Is not the first time by good many that the
New YORK Senator has fit to indulge in plantation
manners, and sink the gentleman In the blackguard
But he never made worse mistake than in thus raising
question OF yeraclty with Carl Schurz upon subject
about which he cannot by possibility be supposed
qualified to speak. The only man who will be injured
by the performance is one Roscoe COnkng.
