The Suspension of Secretary Stanton.
Th President yesterday "suspended" Mr.
Stanton from the office of Secretary of War,
and appointed General Grant as Seoretary ad
interim. This carries the matter over to the
assembling of Congress In November, when
the President must report the case, with the
reasons for his action, to the Senate, and if
they shall concur with him, then the removal
will become absolute; if not, then Mr. Stanton
will resume his position. As there ia no pre
tense that Mr. Stanton has been guilty of any
delinquency or malfeasance in office, and as he
is removed really because of his fidelity to the
cause which the President has so shamefully
betrayed, it is very easy to imagine what the
action of the Senate will be. Before Congress
baa been in session a month, Mr. Stanton will
Lave resumed his position, stronger than ever
before.
Collector James Steedman, it is said, is to
be Mr. Stanton's successor during the interim.
Nothing oould better show the character and
animus of the President than the contrast such
an appointment would exhibit. From Kdwin
M. Stanton, a man whom the whole civilized
world has come to admire for his transcendent
ability as an executive officer, and whose honor
and integrity are above the breath of sus
picion, down to Jim Steedman, the peripatetio
spy and slanderer, who executed a roving com
mission to hunt up and manufacture charges
against his brother officers on duty in the
Freedmen's Bureau, and who showed that he
was a tool of the most despicable character
could there be a greater "falling off," except
in that most abysmal descent from Abraham
Lincoln to Andrew Johnson t
The course of the President is daily demon
strating the correctness of the judgment enter
tained of him by the radioal wing of the Re
publican party. They doubted that he would
honestly carry out the Reconstruction law,
and to meet the threatened danger provided
for a oalled session in July. The President
justified their suspicions, attempted to nullify
the law, and rendered the July session neces
sary. At that session the radicals wished to
provide for another session in Ootober. They
doubted the wisdom or safety of leaving the
President unchecked. But the conservatives
pleaded for him, and the session was fixed for
November. Hardly had Congress adjourned
before the President went to work to obstruct
the faithful execution of the law. The incor
ruptible Secretary of War was his first ob
stacle. That has been removed. The honest
and unpurohasable Sheridan is to be the next
victim. Pope and Sickles will probably follow.
All this simply shows that the radicals cor
rectly comprehend the character and the aims
of this bad man who now holds the reins of
power. The conservatives have not under
stood him aright. They have given him too
much credit for honesty of purpose. His
every act reveals more clearly the self-willed,
obstinate, reckless tyrant. .Fortunate, indeed,
will it be for the country if we escape without
more serious perils from this violent and dan
gerous man, who has onoe caused the nation
to bluBh at the publio and beastly exhibition
of his vices, and who may yet convulse it with
bis crimes.
A False Charge.
Thb New York Herald, which alternately
blows hot and cold one day radical and the
next day conservative emphasizes its latest
summersault by a very weak and unjust
attack upon our Southern citizens of African
descent because they did not raise a servile
insurrection during the war. It says:
"Not a single insurrection not one organized
blow for freedom came from these slaves and
eons of slaves daring four years of a war that
taxed the utmost energies of their masters.
They were held In bonds by men at war with
the nation, and they never added the weight
of one little elTort from their own side to aid
the cause whose success was to make them
free."
The Herald conveniently forgets that, during
the earlier years of the war, the negro received
no encouragement from our Government to
strike for himself. On the contrary, he was
distinctly given to understand that he must
remain at home in quiet subserviency to his
rebellious masters, and that any attempt at
insurrection against them would be promptly
suppressed by us. It seems almost incredible
now that we oould have been guilty of such
gigantic folly; but such was the fact. For in
stance, take the following paragraph from one
of General McClellan's earlier proclamations:
"Notwithstanding all that has been said by
the traitors to induce you to believe that our
advent among you will be signalized by inter
ference with your slaves, understand one thing
.laarlv not onlu will we abstain from all such
interference, but we will, on the contrary, with an
ton hand crush any attempt at insurrection on
ihir nart." And this infamous sentiment was
not disowned by his superiors. Truly, the
negro would have Bhowed very little sense had
i. In the face of a threat like this, gone into
an insurrection on his own aooount. With
a deeper wisdom be bided W3 time, ana trusted
in God.
TLe entire spirit of the Herald's charge ia
falae. During our whole struggle the negro
was ftlwajl ready to do Just as much as we
would allow Wm to do. When we were ready
to admit him into the ranks to fight, he was
ready to go, and did go, and fought nobly aud
bravely for a country which had ever before

thing. Had we encouraged him to a servile
insurrection, he could have made the South a
second St. Domingo. But our Government
was too humane to call down upon the Rebels
a catastrophe like that, and the negro was too
wise to inaugurate it without our sanction.
We doubt whether the history of the world
can furnish a parallel instance where a race of
slaves behaved with so much wisdom and true
prudence as did the slaves in this country
during the Rebellion.
It is amusing to notice the change in style
and argument which the Herald undergoes a3
it changes sides. When it takes the Repub
lican side its arguments are sound, fair, logical,
and powerful, while its style ia robust, tren
chant, and elevated. The moment it goes
over to the Democrats, It becomes tricky, un
fair, and sophistical, and its Btyle degenerates
into coarseness and brutality. It begins to
resort then to the device of forged letters like
the pretended one in its issue a day or two
since from ex-Senator Harris and its edi
torials are filled with fallacies and false state
ments, like the one we have exposed to-day.
A good cause ennobles the utterances even of
a bad man who speaks in its behalf, while in
justice and wrong can only be defended by
sophistry and falsehood.
The Immaculate Jury System Again.
On Saturday morning the Grand Jury ignored
the bills against Alderman William McMullin,
on the charge of assault and battery. On
Saturday afternoon that immaculate body of
disinterested citizens, sworn to deal justly, and
act in accordance with the evidence, meted
out the same fate to the bill against that offi
cer for riot and inciting to riot. There is no
use of our going into a lengthy review of the
question. The evidence laid before the Grand
Jury was very explicit. Part of it read as
follows:
"Jacob I Baugb sworn Was present at the fire In
South ttreel; auw McMullin lake bold of Mr.McNally,
a member of our company: heard hi in use threaten
ing language; we were prevented iroiu going Into ser
vice oy the members oi the Moyanieuslng Hose aud
Alderman McMullin.
Marxnret Mclooi Bworn Saw a crowd coming
down Fitzwultr street; Haw Mr. Unrnes lucre; but did
not see tit a strike anybody; McMulllu was lu the
crowd.
''Henry Cozens sworn Saw A Merman XcMiililn at
the tire In South street; he Had hold oi a uiuu by the
neck; our company could not ko Into service; we wr
prevented by Alderman McMullin aud Ills crowd;
on the alleruoou of the loth wus tt tbe engiue house;
saw Mr. Barnes come uo aud try to kick the door
open; saw Barnes strike a uiuu' he had a brick In one
of his bauds.
"Ulllner Hammond sworn On the morning or the
riot, about 1 o'clock, a disturbance look place down
Hhippen street; we went down and louud soma mem
bers ot tbe Moyamensliig Hose there: they said tbev

llu was among the crowd who were trying to set into
tbe engine house: be looked like the lender of the
crowd; could not say positively that McMullin had a
revolver: ir we nau nau lorce enough we would have
arrested McMullin aud his party."
Yet with this sworn testimony before them,
and with their official oaths to bind them, and
with a solemn promise that they would act
only on the evidence submitted, and without
fear or favor, the Grand Jury ignored the bill I

Of these Grand Jurors, Messrs. Cooper, Flo
rence, Hopkins, Sprogell, and Wagner had
been excused, and Mr. Uueberle was dead.
This reduced the effective force of the jury to
eighteen. At the time of the hearing last
week Messrs. Brady and Nelson were absent.
With this evidence before us of how, with a
little political power, a ruffian can dare
the laws, an Alderman can violate the peace of
the city and head a riot, and yet go undis
turbed, can any one wonder that we feel a pro
found contempt for the present workings of
the system of jury trials ? As it is, it is evi
dent that it is almost impossible to punish
crime where the criminal is surrounded by a
partisan influence, and where politioal power
can purchase immunity for almost every
crime.
Tours and Tourists.
The arrival of autumn will bring with it the
return of many of the throng of tourista who
have fled across the ocean to "do" liurope
and see the Exposition. With them, we may
anticipate, they will bring a fair supply of
foreign nature, imitations of foreign ways,
and 'intense admiration for foreign scenery,
which are usually attached to the train of
Americana who have been abroad. But we
doubt if any of them will have found nature
in greater glory than those of our fellow-citizens
who have been content to remain this
side of the Atlantic, and admired the sights as
furnished by the old Keystone State. We do
not intend to discusa the advisability of going
abroad, but we do wish to impress on our
readers the propriety of seeing what is
lovely within their reach, before , they
seek new suenery across the sea.
To go to Europe, and then have to
confess an ignorance of the glories of our own
country, is a humiliation to whluh too many oi
our American travellers subject themselves.
Our citizens do not seem to Appreciate that
within one hundred miles of Philadelphia, in
our own State, are views as beautiful as any
to be found in the routes pursued by half the
foreign tourists. The glories of Pennsylvania
do not spread themselves before us until we
penetrate and see them. Rioh valleys, pictu
resque mountains, and clear rivers form a plo
ture of peace and plenty which need not fear
comparison with any of the landscapes of the
Old World. We hope to see the day when
excursions into our own State will be as com
mon as a trip to the sea-side, so that the
beauties now lost to those capable of appre
ciation may be within the reach of all, and
those unable to visit Mont Blanc and Pied
mont may enjoy the lesser but still attractive
beauties of the Pokono and the Kittauning.
Tub New Cherokkb Chief. We are glad to
notice the election of Lewis Downing as chief
of the Cherokees. Mr. Downing was one of
the loyal men of that tribe, and served during
the war as lieutenant-colonel of a regiment of
loyal Indians, commanded by Colonel William
A. Phillips, of Kansas. He is a man of intelli
gence and education, liberal in his views, and
will make a capable ruler.
The Guerilla Quantrbll. -The Lawrence
(Kanpas) Stale Journal says: "Andy Hammond,
sn old resident of this city, and lately Military
Marshal In Texas, has returned. He gives a
rather gloomy account of matters in Texas. He
gives tbe most definite and accurate accouuts of
the whereabouts of Quautrell that we have yet
heard. lie saj8 that he is doing a commission
business in Mexico, just across the Rio Grande,
under the name of Larned Anderson. His next
oflicer in rank in the Quantrell massacres is also
in Mexico. Marshal Hammond wrote to Gov
crnorCrawiordforarequisition on theGovernor
of Texas to procure Quautrell, the intention
being to decoy him into Texas, and then Becure
bim upon a requisition. The Post Commander
also wrote to Governor Crawford, but no answer
was ever received either to the letter of
Messrs. II&ll, Hammond, or the Post Com
mander. Mr. Hammond seems to be confident
as to tbe whereabouts of Quantrell, and thinks
there can be no mistake as to his being on the
border of Mexico."
The James River and Kanawha Canal. The
James River and Kanawha Canal Company is to
be brousht before the United States Bankruptcy
Court. The corporation is owned by a number
of Frenchmen, among whom rumor places
Napoleon III. The old State of Virginia ceded
its claims to the French Company, and the
enforcement of the rltrhts of the foreign owners
was one of the grounds for the belief in the
South that Louis Napoleon would recognize
the Confederacy, or make war on the United
States. But nothing came of it, tbe Mexican
scheme appearing to be a more certain inveit
metit. Now, however, in the Bankruptcy Court
there will be a rifrld investigation of French
manoeuvres aud a new and interesting page will
be added to tbe story of tbe Rebellion.
The Minnesota Cbops. The St. Paul Press

WASHINGTON GOSSIP.
Tlte Attempt to Damage the Reputation
of tbe Chief Justice.
Washington, August 12.
There is a good deal of feeling here amon?
members of all purties In reference to Weed's
recent assuult made upon Mr. Chase. It is un
derstood that there is a combination, headed by
the infamous Thurlow Weed, for the purpose
of destroying the Chief Justice as a possible
candidate for the Presidency. The yearuiug of
the country for a statesman they fear will cul
minate In his nomination, and hence these as
sertions that he corruptly made an enormous
fortune in the Treasury Department.
The truth is this: Mr. Chase was, for
many years, the pioneer of the tele
graph operations of the oouutry. By these
enterprise aud his profession he accumulated
PwVVHbly trom fcW.OtH) to tluO.OOO of property.
NVhile Governor of Ohio bis capital decreased.
His expenditures were mote tuau his paltry
salary, and it is well known that his salary as
Ht'cretary did not pay his housekeeping bills
alone in this city. We all know how open and
hospitable the Governor was. His house was a
stopping-place for many wearied generals and
soldiers, and around his table there was always
a crowd. He Is to day a poorer man than when
Governor of Ohio. It is well known that Go v
einorSprague. bis son-ln law, never received
nor mude a dollar by any lavor, direct ly or indi
rectly, irom the Hecretary. His relations with
Mr. Jay Cooke were showu olnctally. I happen
to know that Mr. Chase was very h-trd and
stringent In bis dealings with Mr. Cooke, and
that that banker was more liberally treated by
Mr. McOulioch and iIr. Fesseudeu. Mr. Chase
was Indeed so anxlouson thesuhjectof eoouomy

Probable Removal of the Military Com
manders lu the Mouth.
I have reason to think thut the next step, now
that Stanton has been removed, will be the
removal of Sheridan, and probably the other
four Military Commanders. K is Mr. Johnson's
desire to place more conservative men la
authority over the conquered Southern breth
ren men who will execute the laws of Congress
with as little harshness and show of despotism
as practicable. To do this effectively It Is
ifgarded as judiolous to make a complete
change, so that nooue ldeutltled with tbe past
harsh and oppressive administration of alialra
in the military districts will remain la power.
By this means It is considered that the whites
will be secure in their lives and property, and

A DIVER RICHLY REWARDED.
A Lucky Dive-Immense Treasure Found
A Safe 4 hat has been under Water
over Thirty Years Brought to the Sur
face $10,000 In Gold Ileeovered-A
Poor Fisherman Kurlcbcd,
tom the Ifashville Gazette, Dlh:
Most of oar readers are familiar with the fact
that a party of divers lu this city devote this
season of the year, when the water Is at a low
stare, to divino: in the Cumberland. For the
past two months scarcely a dar has passed that
the upper levee has not been the nceno of such
exploit", and a large amount of old Iron has
been fished out in this way, and some of the
parties 1 ave been remunerated haudsotuely from
the sale ot the same.
But lu ordt r lo do jus'.ice to the lucky haul we
are about to describe, Ictus go b:ck to the good
old time when Nashville was a village, and when
nuoh men as brown low were regarded as fsmuli
potatoee. It was a winter's day in the jear 18U6,
when the pulling of a Pteamboat was henrd
several miles btlow the citv. and the loud and
distinct sraping betokened that utie was a double
engine craft, and belonged in the trade between
New Orleans and this point. In those days the
trade was mostly, if not altocctber, by river,
and this was the most direct aud shortest route
to reach Nashville from the Crescent City. There
were a large number of tine boats engaged in
the trade then, and daiiy arrivals were of com
mon occurrence. Those ot our citizens who
were living here at that day will remember the
interest manifested by all to crowd to tbe wharf
when they heard tbe boat approaching. Some
were ansious to hear the condition of the New
Orleans cotton maiket; others were interested
in getting the quotation of the groceries, while
inmiy were the receipts or letters trom friends.
But to proceed. The boat puffed away, and
filially reached the head of the island, aud the
knowing ones were satisfied that it was the John
Randolph, one of the bet-t cratt in the trade.
She moved upon the water like a thiujr of Hie,
and was swiltly coming into port. But just as
.he reached the old Nashville bridge, volumes
oi smoke ana sparks of tire were seen issuing
trom her decks, and the gloriouold craft which
had carried passengers by the thousands, and
millions of toDs ot freig'ht, was enveloped in
flames. Tbe cry of fire was sounded, and soon
the whole town crowded to the bluff to learn
the particulars. She was heavily ladened with
cotton and crowded with passengers. It would
have been hazardous to have attempted a land
ing where she was, and the captain determined
to reach the city wharf.
The strong current of air fanning the flames
caused the boat to burn rapidly. Small boats
were thrown out, and the passengers sent to
shore, while the crew were busily engaged in
throwing overboard freight. Such a scene, In
tact, we have never witnessed since. The boat
iea hed the lower end of the wharf a perfect
wrtck, and in a few moments themiglity waters
ot the Cumberland covered the remainder of
the proud Randolph. She went down, and wi n
ber animmante amount of treasure, including
the safo of the boat, which contained latge
amounts.
Let us now return to the scenes of yesterday.
Three well-known fishermen and exoert divers
were engaged in exploring the undiscoverel
country below the surrace of the Cumberland,
when one of the party came upon something
massive. He attempted to move it, but he
fcund it deeply implanted iu tbe sandy bottom.
He aiose, and soon again descended, and from a
second observation came tj tbe conclusion that
it was a safe. He arose Benin the second time,
and reported his convictions to his comrades.
The matter was thoroughly canvassed, when an
old boatman narrated the particulars of the
loss of the safe on the Randolph just at this
point.
A council of war was held, and it was deter
mined to rescue the safe at all hazards. Crow
bars were procured, several canoes and yawls
were anchored out at the place, and the divers
again proceeded to their work. Ttie crowbars
were used eucccstfuli.y, the sate had been moved,
and all worked smoothly. Hopes were procured
and properly adjusted, and, after seven hours'
hard labor, their efforts were crowned with
success. They succeeded in recovering trom its
long hiding place an old rusty cooking stove,
which was safely brought to shore, and the
profits arising from the sale of old iron divided
among the party.
