Removal'of Secretary Stanton.
I he following dispatches were received
at a late hour on Monday night, and our
niost efficient workmen being indisposed
we could not have placed them in type
till the last ‘gray hour of the morning,’
and too late for conveyance by the mails.
Therefore, it was only announced in a
brief note.
Ihe President lias now assumed tho
position which he should have done some
time since, and 'taken no step backwards.’
No other course could insure the peace and
prosperity of the whole country. Unless
all parts be in harmony, none need to ex
pect either peace or prosperity. Bitterness
of feeling and sectional strife will con
tinue to prevail without it, and all will
suffer to a certin extent, if not about
equally in the North, South or West. —
Aml last of .all, the Negro will he the
greatest victim of this dispention. This
must l.e evident to anyone, wlioseconcep
tion can be depleted of fanatacism, and
made to cast its conceptions of the future
beyond the present hour. Without this
wemightask ourselves, are we, Mexico, or
“United States?”
The following are the material docu
ments published yesterday bearing on the
question between tho President amp Sec
retary Stanton, when we give in their
order.
Executive Mansion, >
Washington, August 5,1807. /
Sir: Public considerations of a high char
acter eostmin me lo say that your resigna
tion as Secretary of War will bo accepted.
Very respectfully,
ANI >K K\Y JOIINSON.
To Hon. E. M. Stanton, Secretary of War.
Secretary Stanton replied as follows:
War Department,
Washington, August s,Lsi>7. /
Kir: Your note of this day lias been re
eeivod, stating that pltblio considerations
of a high character constrain you to say
that my resignation as Secretary of War
will be accepted.
In reply, 1 have thd honor to say that
public considerations of a high character,
which alone have induced me to continue
at the head of this Department, constrain
me hot to resign the office of Secretary of
War before the next luce ling of (.'digress.
Very respectfully yours,
Edwin M. Stanton.
To the President.
Washington, Aug., 12.--The President,
at 10 o’clock this morning, sent a commu
nication to Secretary Stanton suspending
him from office as Secretary of War, and
directing him to transfer the records,
books, etc., to General Grant, informing
Mi’. Stanton that General Grant bad been
empowered to act as Secretary of War ad
■interim. At the same hour the authority
was sent General Grant, authorizing him
to act as Secretary of War ad interim , di
recting him to at once enter upon the duty.
At noon the president received a note
from Mr. Stanton denying the President’s
right, under the Constitution and laws, to
suspend him (Stanton) without the con
sent of the Senate or legal cause, but inas
much as the General Commanding the
armies of the United States had notified
hinA(Slaiitoii) that he (Grant)had accept
ed the appointment as Secretary of War
ad interim, he (Stanton) had no alterna
tive but to submit, under protest, to supe
rior force.
General Grant has assumed charge of
the War Department, and appeared at the
cabinet meeting to-day for the purpose of
considering certain questions in relation
to the territory recently acquired from
Russia.
Shooting of Judge Horne.— Tho Sn in
ter Republican of the 13th says that Judge
J. C. W. Horne of that county was siioi
by two negroes, and so seriously wounded
that he was not expected to recover. Three
negroes were arrested, two of whom have
made confession of committing the deed.
Twenty to twenty-five armed negroes
paraded the streets of Americas on Mon
day night and made many disorderly de
monstrations.

Tiie President aud Secretary Stanton
What it was “rumored,” two years ago,
that llie President intended to remove
Secretary Stanton, we credited the report.
We believe Unit tiie thoroughly bad man
would soon eeasetobeaconfidential adviser
of llie President. But lie was not removed.
At a Inter date, when the rumor was re
vived and the tiling was reported to lie
certain, we presum#i it was true But
during tiie last year when these minors
came over the wire we have placed tix> ‘
reliance upon them. Indeed, We look up
on Stanton as a fixture in the Cabinet
doing the President’s term. We do not
know of auotlior so bad a man in tiie
country, unless it is Butler; and, upon tiie
whole, Butler appears to have the advan
tage (it Stanton in manly virtues and
conscientious eonduot, Stanton puts on a
brazen face,clings lohisseatiu the Cabinet,
and uses all the immense power of the
War Department to crush tiie President*
His confidential ad visor, and meeting in
his private counsels, Btanton has been tiie
deadly enemy of President Johnson for
two full years, and lias done more, we
think, than any other individual to injure
him in his ollicial position. That lie has
professed frindship when lie was actually
cutting tho President to the heart, we do
not doubt. Nor do we quesLion the fact
that the President, confiding, patient, and
slow to act, has listened to him, Imiieving
him to he a friend and capable ad
viser.
The President means well. Ife is a true
friend of his country. Nothing would
gratify him so much as to he the witness
of a restored and hsppy Union, with tiie
principles of tiie Constitution preserved.
Could lie see this during his administra
tion, lie would gladly retire, and lie would
he a happy man, indeed. Misstate papers
have been marked by very great anility,
and the main doctrines enunciated in
them have beeu sound. But he does not
act bodily. This is his fault. He does not
appreciate the situation and read men in
stantly, as Andrew Jackson did. An ex
ecutive should talk little, hut act with
great decision, act boldly and speedily,
always feeling perfectly sure that he is
right.
J>n several occasions he has seen and
n it the necesity of ridding his counsels of
the presence ot Slaton, lie should have re
moved him at once. But delay was fatal
mins good intentions, lie knows that
Shendan ought to lie removed—knows
that Sheridan, a dashing soldier, a rou-di'-
rttler, is not a tit man to govern a s<-Tto
witii supreme power in one hand and the
sword in tiie other. He should remove
him—should have done it long since
when he was convinced of Kher'nlun’s un- l
titties::. The act would have strengthened
tbp President, while the threat and tiie
delay weakens him. He should remove
Sickles,aud put a blitter man in his place.
He knows that justice requires this; but,
heitating, lie does not wield the right, but
submit to the wrong.
In many other cases, some of them of
grave importance, lie has sacrificed tho
strength and dignity of his position.—
With right views and good intentions, he
conics to conclusions slowly, and does not
act. 111 this we see his failure, and the
triumph of a traitorous and usurping
Congressional faction over him.

TUo System of Distributing Rations
Coriespondeuce of the New York Times.
Reaufort, S. C., Monday, July 8, 1867.
I wonder if the Government has any idea
or the people at the North begin to com
prehend, the damage done to the poor at
the south—especially theuegro race—and
the amount of money wasted by the vi
cious system of rationing the needy. One
would naturally suppose there must be a
limit to the matter, and that four years
of freedom to have the full results of labor
would make any people fit to live self-sus
taining. But, inevitable as the return sea
sons, goes up the terrible cry of starvation
and suffering for want of the necessaries
of life, and just as regularly tho Govern
ment is humbugged. and the people who
furnish money for food and clothes de
frauded, and beggars are made where one
really needy and destitute person is bene
fited by the helping.
lam speaking of the Sea Islands, with
the condition of which I am familiar.
This is the sixth season that the negro race
here have been practically free, and tlie
sixth season that rations have been deliv
ered to the “poor freed man,” wiio has
failed to make crop enough by his free la
bor to support himself the year round.
Os course, f(hen a man Is thus fed lie will
not work. His crop will come short again.
He will expect to be fed again. He will
have the same plea to enter to obtain
rations. He Will be heard, and so your
man who can, if he will, get an honest
living, becomes a begger,. 'The year 1865
was a great year for refugees, the miserable
beings, who, set free by Sherman's invinci
ble army, followed him in Ins march to the
Sea; and all remember the famous order of
Sherman which located them on the Sea
Islands. That same year rations were re
duced to the minimum by the able agent
then in charge, whose experience reached
back from the very beginning, and who
knew every negro on these islands and iiis
true wants. But then was the trial made,
which should be remembered as a most
powerful argument against assisting tiie
negro or any body else, excepting those
lit to go to the poor-house. 'The negroes
were rationed by the thousand, to return
the cost of food in cotton, to he made by
the strength of that food, and by the
thousand they failed (o pay, or even to
make a provision crop- Men who did
make good crops, and did pay their debts,
and not realize the value of thcerops raised,
failed to use them sparingly, and were as
liojx lessiy in need tho next spring as ever
and as piteous beggars. I had a full per
sonal experiencem this matter, and know
llie exact truth of every statement 1 am
making. To strengthen the argument
there is the reverse side of this picture to
heshown. There were plantations, where
I rigidly refused to-ration or recommend
for rations. They got what they worked
for and nothing more. If they worked on
shares, all the same. If they were refugees
just in, all the same; they must bake care
of their own crops, and then work out lor
food. They did it.. They were credited to
a very small extent.’ They worked faith
fully, did well, and grew in every respect.
They were not demoralized by the accursed
system of rationing. .Such a* state of facts
will thoroughly con vince any honest mind
that the persons needing really lo be help
ed (South, after the first chance to make a
crop, are few and far between. They will
average scarcely one to a plantation, when
kindred are coin pet led to do their duty to
their immediate family relations.
Now go to Beaufort on u ration day and
what do yon see? 'lV> an inexperienced
man a mostpitiable sight. The street, the
halls, the doorways of tile agent’s office are
blocked lo a jam by a mixed crowd—]* r
sislent. importunate, clamorous. Such
rales of waul, oi starvation, of children to
bo supported and nothing to clothe or feed
them witfi. You are not used to tho oper
ation, and your heart melts, for there is
every manifestation of the truth of what
they claim, as far as you can see. But if
you know thoroughly tho whole ground
you bod with indignation at the shame
less imposition. There they are young j
and oid, able-bodied and crippled,and you I
know that nine-tenths of them can" legiti
mately be called on to Support themselves.
The authorities are entirely at tlieir mer
cy, for they have no means of knowing
who ought to be helped and who ought to
be kicked out of doors. The above scene
does not occur every ration day, but is
what took place when it had been given
out that Government hail sent down a
large amount of corn to be given to the
needy, i know of persons ail about me
who have wives husbands and children
who ought to and can aud have supported
them, but who draw rations and situ re
them with their family, and tlie.se same
able members of the family piude provis
ions enough last year to carry ail through.
Audio make the matter all the worse,
there is .plenty of work to he done that
draws wages,and laborers are even sought
and carried to and front their place of
labor if distant by boat.
I discourage and denounce rations alto
gether on my place. But my people get
tlieir own work and seek work off*and got
it; that is, those who are short for food.
Now, it is a solemn faet thatnine-tenhts of
the rationing on the Sea Islands is a
shameful imposition op the part of the peo
ple, aud the whites, to my certain knowl
edge, are just as mean about it as the
blacks, and a terrible demoralization a!s
well, and a shameful waste of public char
ity. Not another cent of money nor an
other tag of clothes should be given in a
general way to the Sea Island negro. I!’
you have friends among them who ’call for
special eases, and whom you know can use
their judgment in bestowing your charity,
give, but in no other way. And it is most
certainly the imperative duty of Govern
ment to cut off - rations altogether and for
ever on these islands, and if it must still
care for the negroes here, to establish a
poor-farm, and send all tho poor and nee
dy to it, and all wild call for rations.—
Then those who needed rations would get
them, and none others. I wish to infer
nothing derogatory to the authorities hav
ing rations in charge here, itisuterly
impossible for them to escape imposition
on the largest scale, unless they personal
ly investigate every case, and that is out of
the question. H.

We copy the following account of a re
cent “outrage in Wilkes” from the Win
ston Sentinel:
One day last week a party of men from
Tennessee, claiming to belong to Brown
low’s militia, made a rush into Wilkes
county and arrested and carried oll’a young
man py the name of Wagoner. Wagoner
is a native of Johnson county, Tennessee,
and at the commencement of tiie war
joined the Ist North Carolina cavalry, ami
did not visit home during tho struggle,ami
since the war was afraid to return home,
and settled in Wilkes county in this State,
and recently married. The miscreants
who'carried him off'told him they were
acting under the authority of Brownlow,
and that ho had also offered S4OO reward
for him. Wagoner was in the field at
work, and when he was arrested was re
fused permission to go to the house for his
goat. The captors placed a guard of two
then, one on each side, aud then placed a
rear guard, with instructions to lire off' a
gun op the approach' of any one that had
the appearapgti of pursuit, and the tiring
of the gun was the signal to the guards
near Wagoner’s person to kill him. When
the party was approaching Taylorsville,
the rear guard stopped at a branch to
drink, ami fell to the rear some thirty or
forty yards. Wagoner conceived this to
be the best and last chance to escape; he
suddenly struck pue of the guards and
knocked him off a steep embankment, and
immediately struck the other and darted
off into the woods. By this time the at
tention of the whole party was drawn to
him, and they fired a volley after him, but
fortunately his person was not touched,
although several balls passed through his
clothing. After laying out in the moun
tains for two or three days aud nights, he
got safely back to Wilkes, where it is
hoped lie will be allowed to remain unmo
lested.
A special from Omaha, dated Aug. 7th,
says a freight train on the Union Pacific,
railroad was thrown from the track last
night at Plum Creek station, by Indians.
The engineer, fireman ;aud a[breakman
were killed. The merchandise was burn
ed. It is also reported that three or four
men at tiie station were killed. This out

Wanted Pay.—A green Hibernian,
who has lately been naturalized, went to
the First-street Station-house on the day of
the late election or the purpose of exer
cising for the firsfi time in his life the high
right of a freeman, the elective franchise.
After having voted for one of the can
didates, lie declined voting for any others,
and lingered for a considerable time at the
clerk’s desk. He was asked why he did so,
aud replied that ho was waiting for his
pay ; whereupon the clerk informed him
that men are not paid for voting in this
country, that it is a noble right which
every citizen claims, and on wehich,every
patriot guards with jealousy. “Gcli,” said
Paddy, “Bejasus the gentleman tould me
I’d beastlier bein' paid, an that’s the
trootb.” —[Louisville Democrat.
Plain Talk.—During the discussion of
the suffrage question in the Connecticut
Legislature, Mr, Harmesly, of Hartford,
said.
“Sir, tiie gentleman from New London
has suggested that Congress may force ne
gro suffrage upon us! and lie seems to
think wo may as well have it now, as to
wait for Congress to force it upon us. I
would not go for the change, under any
threat Congress may make. Let them try
if they dare! Let tiietn send cm their
armed cohorts and their generals, to say
to Connecticut—You shall have negro suf
frage, If we don’t resist to the death,
then, sir, our free institutions will be lost
forever.” [Great applause, which drown
ed the Speaker’s hammer.]
Sunday Amusement.—A New York
paper of the oth says ;
On Sunday morning a prize fight, as
usual, took place back of West Hoboken,
during the progress of which one of the
pugilists was struck with a bottle by an
outsider, for having been guilty of a foul
blow. A general fight ensued, in which
fifteen or twenty persons were badly cut
and injured, and a cry of “police” was
raised just in time to prevent the killing
ofsomeof them. No arrests were made
as the authorities were too slow.
SENTINEL SONGS.
By “ MOINA”—(FATHER A. T. RYAN, of Tennessee.
When sinks the soldier bravo
Dead at the feet of wrong,
The poet sings, and guards his grave
With sentinels o 1 Song.
“ Go, Songs'’—ho gives command—
“ Keep faithful watch and true;
Tlie living and dead of the Conquered Laud
Have now no guards save you.
“And. Ballads ! mark ye well,
Thrice holy is your trust;
Go out to the fields where warriors fell,
And sentinel their dust.”
And the Songs, in stately rhyme,
With softly sounding tread,
March forth—to watch, till the end ot time,
Beside the silent dead.
And when the foemans host.
And hale have pcs .si away;
Our guard ol' Wongs shall keep their post,
Around our soldier's clay.
A thousand dawns may glow
A thousand days may wane,
The deathless songs where Die dead lie low,
t rue to the last remain.
Yea, true, they will not yield,
To tvrants or to time; ’
At every grave and on every field
Where men died deaths sitlilime—
Bone vie:ls they will keep
Obedient to their Usual;
And they will watch when we shall sleep—
Our last and only Guard.
What though our vlctoik say:
“ No column shall he built,
Above the graves where the men in Grey
Lie mouldering in their guilt?”
Ah 1 Let the tyrant curse
The dead he tramples down 1
Our Klrong, brave ngs, in their sweet, sad
verse.
Fear not tile tyrant s frown.
Whnt, 1 hough no scull lured shod
Commemorate our Brave?
What, though no monument epitaphcd
Be built above their grave ?
When marble wears away,
Am! monuments are <1 list,
Tim si,pgs that guard onrsoldler’s clay
Will still fulfil iheir trust 1

Tl»c Cotton Itp'y.
National InleUlgenc r.
Accounts from tin; cotton region of tire
South concur in tin; estimate of tlie Agri
cultural Bureau a* to tim probable cotton
crop tor the present year. The crop is
estimated nt eighteen hundred thousand
bales as the minimum. It may, under very
favorableeonliUgencieH, exceed this quan
tity by several hundred thousand bales.—
The lust year’s crop fell considrably short
of estimates made at this stage of the sea
son, in consequence ebh-lly of unfavorable
weather. This season labor is more expen
sive and less reliable than it was, last year.
The freed people, who work on shares,
demand one half of the crop, and are not
easily induced to work even for that {>or
tion. The planter encounters the risk and
e.\ i tense of a cultivation, including all the
capital, the land, stock <fee., and tlieu the
labor takes cue half of the product, while
the (ioverumeut lies in wait to seize upon
another portion, through the cotton tax,
as well as through the tax which the
planter pays indirectly ujwm every article
of his consumption. Cotton planting was
not highly remunerative last year,and this
season it has been, so far tisis now known,
conducted at a positive loss to the plan
ter.
The political engagements of the freed
men this year will distract their attention
from tiehi labors. If they give their time
to Radical politics they are promised re
wards ; and if their employers should not
pay them for the nego -t of tiieir work,
then the planters’lainl and all other prop
erty will be confiscttotl, and given to the
negro voters. This last decree of the Rad
ical powers was made recently by the
great conllseator, Mr. -tevens, and lias
ha<! already its desired effect. The negroes,
not loving labor at any time, will prefer
idleness, when they find thatwiil pay Etel
ter than industry.
'I lie price which the crop of this settson
will bear is a matter of interesting conjec
ture. 1 lie present price of cotton is about
twenty-four cents in New Vork for mid
dlings. Some siqqtose that cotton will
further decline, and, in another year, range
at from ten to twelve cents, specie, as it
did in tlie year or two previous to the war.
Mr. David Atkinson, and there is no bet
tor authority, argues that in two or three
years, at furthest, the supply of cotton
from all parts of the world will exceed the
demand. On the other hand, it may be
asserted that cotton is now grown at a loss
in this country, in Egypt, in India, anti
ialku7.il. If tlie supply exceed the de
mand and came a decline in price, that
will soon regulate itseifby a diminished
supply. Price, are not going back to the
rates of six or eight years ago. There has
boon a general rite or prices since, from
the increase of the quantity of money in
circulation, whether coin or paper.
The Southern States may not be able, in
our present political and financial condi
tion, to compete with other cotton regions
in the markets of the world. They will
ompete and excel in quality, Lut it may
be doubted whether they can produce the
article at a- low a price.
it is, however, the hope and conviction
of many, that after some further time and
more practical experience, labor and capi
tal will be adjusted to the cotton culture,
and that the culture will also be aided bv
liberal legislation and much needed agri
cultural improvements. (Should thishope
be verified, tlie (South may again possess a
practical and beneficial momqioly of the
cotton market of the world. Rut the
manufacturing interest of England does
not recognize it.
So tar from again depending upon the
United States for a supply of four millions
of bales of cotton a year, the Manchester
Association apprehends another cotton
ei i.-es here. The alienation of black labor
from the cotton fields, and political uncer
tainties, will, it is feared, still further re
duce the annual product of cotton. Per
severing efforts are therefore made to in
ciease the cotton product of India, and of
otiier countries.
The decline in the price of cotton since
the first of June last has been ho great, that
holders of cotton have suffered severely,
There is not a large quantity of the last
year's crop on hand, hut it is very low,
and cotton dealers do not expect any con
siderable rise. It has, however, touched
its lowest point for the present.
The Cincinnati Journal of Commerce
has a statement as to the present condi
tion of the cotton market, showing that
the stock on hand, in quantity and quali
ty. bus never touched so low a point at
this season of the year since the cultiva
tion of cotton as a crop was commenced
here. The present stock the Journal esti
mates at only eighty-eight thousand hales,
against seven hundred and fifty thousand
bales at this time last year: As the new
crop will come forward fors;ome months, a
profit may be realized by holders of the
small lots in reserve.
In the dignity and majesty of his tri
umph after his election, Governor Brown
low said thift his majority in the State
would be over forty thousand, and that he
proposed to bury the rebel party in a cof
fin with both ends open so that when tlie
devil wont in at one end they could go out
at the other. No promises had been made
by him or his friends as to how long he
should be Governor. The Constitution
did not fix the time, and as he was called
a despot he would be one, am; be Govern
or for ten year” to show what he might
he.
