may be, hare been prepared to-lay, aud wcro
submitted to tho PseslIent la writing. Late

arc furnished 10 tho Hampton party bcfoee to-

Chamberlain thinks 1t would be improper to an
t,ouncc the character OF these propositions. Tie
Cabinet has undoubtedly determined, In any
eyent, to withdraw tho troops from tho South
Carolina state.ffouso at a very early day, but
will probably suspend tho issuance OF the order
until the plan OF adjustment submitted by Cor.
Chamberlain this eVning, aud any others that

cussed aud determined upon.
