Extensive Changes of Tabinct-Bris-
tow and Jewell to be Driven out.
The subJoincd information Will be recog-
nized by the public ~ Of extraordinary
interest and Importance:
"wAsnrNGroN, Feb. 10.
"Presidpnt GRANT, having Tor some weeks
yelled his intense inward fury against Secretary
BRrsrow under the disguise Of formal and pre-
.entious poltencsf, has now determined to
ang OF the mask az soon as the BAD
COCK trial Ia ended. DRIsTOw Is to he
trlven from the Cabinet in the course Of the
,oming week. The day Is not yet determined,
but It will lie done as soon as the President and
his advisers think the suitable mon ent has ar
rved and II Is to be douc squarely and roughly.
They are aware that lVfsTow has become n
very prominent man before the country,
and that when GRANT orens upon
him be will naturally be made more
prominent. This danger however, Is to be OBJ
Waited by a liberal use Of Islander and calumny,
70 be poured upon BRisTow through the organs
Of the White House In Congress and In the par
hsan press. GRANT and all the thieves who as
bociate with him hate the Kentuckan worse
than they hate the devil. and they will paint
him black In the hope Of averting from him
that confidence and admiration which the
honest men OF the country, without dis
tlncton Of party, have begun TO feel toward
him. In this work they will also have the aid Of
men who are not thieves, but who, like Senator
CoNKltNG, dislike BRisTow because he Is n re-
former, and sets personal and Official integrity
above party allegiance.
MARSHALL Is to co likewise. He has
had notions of managing the Post ONCE De-
partnert on business principles; and notwith-
standing unworthy concessions that he has made
too much OF Il reformer to answer their purpose.
when GRANTS friend, SHEPHERD, denounced
JEWELL few months ago as a damned bob
tail clam Yankee JEWELS doom was sealed,
and the sentence Will be executed at the same
time that the vuls Of wrath are opened on
BRIsrOw.
81 hese charges, taken together with the with
drawal Of sCHENCK at London, give GRANT an
opportunity Of providing for Messrs. FISH aud
PIERREroNT In a way more satisfactory to him
telf II Mr.. FfsH is willing to take the English
mission, pIEERIroNT will be Secretary OF state (;
and II FISH prefers to remain here, PIERREPoNT
will he sent to London. As am at present adj
vised, the latter is the more probable thing Of
the two.
"The schedule Of the reconstructed Cabinet
now stands as follows, subject. however, TO
those changes OF purpose and vecring Il fuences
by which GRANT Is SO frequently affected up
10 the time when his orders are finally pub
lshed

"This slate. as have stated above. is liable to
be changed by the substitution OF Mr.. PIERRE
PoST for Mr.. FISH, and ciee rcrSd. 1t Is also
liable to be changed by a change in the mind Of
Gen. GRANT; and even such publication as
this may have tendency to affect one or two
OF the names have given. The appointment OF
GEORGE II. WILLIAMS W III also be less probable IL
BABcoCK Is convicted. One object of putting him
at the head Of BADCOCKs defence was 10 pave
the wy for him back to the Department Of
Justice. nd II he is beaten at st. Louis he will
be In danger Of being beaten here. Still, GRANT
Is very tenacious, and takes very warm inter
OFT In WILLIAMS success Ia life.
1t is rather an interesting fact In the interior
history Of the White House that the idea Of
calling on Gen. sCHENCK for his resignation
began to be entertained about the Same time
with the idea of forcing BRIsTow out OF the
Cabinet"
Apart from the attack to be made on
Secretary BRIsTow for doing his duty and
stopping the plumber of the Treasury, this
list Of prospective members OF the Cabinet
Is one Of the most remarkable ever pre-
sentcd.
What will the public think of putting
Jack CHANDLER at the head OF the Treas
ury Department, and making ALEXANDER
RAMSEY the head OF the Post Office De.
partmentI
Can the Senate be servile enough to con.
Ann GEORGE II. WILLIAMS II he shall be
nominated for Attoney-General? Ii
seems impossible; but the Senate which
could confirm BILLINGS to be Judge OF
the United states is capable Of anything
We congratulate Judge PIERREPoST OF
the prospect Of leaving the office OF At
tomey-General. II would have been bet
ter for his fame if he had left it some
months agO.
