The following is the celebrated private let ter of Goo. Grant to President Johnson, pro. testing against the removal of Secretary Stanton add General,,Sheridaa Ilia 'Excellency Andreto.Johnson, President of the United ,S'tatea. brit : .1 take the liberty of addressing you privately on the subject of the conversation we had this morning, feeling, as I do, the great danger to the welfare of the country should you carry out the designs then -a pressed. First, on the subject of the dis placement of the Secretary of War. His re moval cannot bo effected against bis will without the clement of the Senate. It is but a short time since the U. S. Ben-to was in session, and why not than have asked for his removal if it was desired ? It certainly was the intention of the legislative branch of the Ouvernaient - toplace - Cabin - st - tain - Wers - be yond the power at Executive removal, and it is Iretty well understood that, au far as Cab inet ministers are affected by the Tenure of Office Bill, it was intended especially to pro tect the Secretary of War, whom the coun try felt great confidence in The meaning of the law may be explained away by an ,as rule lawyer, but COILMOD sense and the views of loyal people will give it the effect intend. et' by its trainers. On the subject of the-removal of very , able eammauder of the Fifth military dis ti lei let we ask you to eouNider - the effect it would have upon 'he public. lie is waiver sally and deservedly beloved by the peopie who sustained this Government through its trials r and-fearea-by - those - whe - vmaitriiiillbT) the enemies of the tioverutueut. It tell to the lot of but few men to do as much against an .armed enemy as General btieridiiii did during the rebellion, and it is wittito the scope of the ability of but le,w_in this or au' , other country to do what he has dune. His civil actuakustration has given equal satisfaction; ho has had difficulties to contend with which uo other district eery wander has ever eucountered. Almost, if not quite, frum the day he was appointed dis trict ebinmander to the present time, the press has given out that ne was to be re moved; that the atinduistration was dissatis fied with him. This has emboldened the op ponents to the laws of Congress to oppose him is every way in their power, and has rendered necessary measures which other wise may never have been necessary. In conclusion allow mo'to say as a friend desir ing peace and quiet and the welfare of the whole country, North and Soutb, that it is in my opinion more than the loyal people (I mean those wha supported the Government during the rebellion) will quietly submit to see the very man of all others whom they have expressed confidence in removed. I would not have taken the liberty of address ing the executive of the United States, but for the conversation on the subject alluded to in this letter, and from a sense of duty, feeling that I know I am right in the matter.
