Philadelphia lkfpjirox says of Thatt.Sto
vens, "who arrived in Washington several
-cays ago:
"He has prepared a bill for immediate
rasago to regulate the removals from offide.
It is more stringent than Senator, Trum
bull's, and provides that no one rejected by
the Senate shall be again nominatcd-or ap
pointed to any office for three years. Mr.
Stevens receives daily hundreds of Jetters
from nil directions, urging him to stand
firm and fear not. He says he was rather
conservative last winter, but now he is
radical, and expects to continue so the re
mainder of his days. He converses w'ith
the greatest rapidity, ard clearness, and
except in the fjblenqs jf5 hisr- frame, no
cne would suppose liim to lc over fifty.
The idea of attempting to barter with the
South to buy from them what lje considers
-Congress has the sight and ought to de
mand, is very distasteful to him, and the
advocates of universal amnesty for univer
sal suffrage will find in him a bitter and
effective opponent. He does not consider,
that the Southern Stales are needed to
ratify the constitutional amendments, and
that when twothircU of the twenty-six

Speculations Begnrdinsr tbejltcraovnl
Grant.
Washington, Nov. -29. Although no
formal omcial communication has been
:made to this Government, there is no doubt
ithat information has been verbally fur-
inished of Napoleon's intention toc.remove
t- i . f f ' t' '
sine jjrencn iroops irom iuepco, at ine ear
liest practical time, the 'arrangements for
thafi purpose being now in progress.
The. .reason why tho jirst detachment, or
one-third Qf,the troops jvas not embarked
in November, according to the 'Emperor's
own programme, is that the other two-
thirds might have been seriously damaged
by the Liberals, who were persistently
pressing them, io obviate such a result,
it waj deemed more, prudent, as a military
necessity, to. remove them, alii at .once. ' v
The following dispatch was received
by General Grant concerning the crossing
of the itio uranue by uen. Sedgwick :
Galveston-, Texas, Noj.JJ7. I fear that
Gen. Sedgwick has crossed from Browns
ville and occupied Matamoras, tinder the
pretext ot protecting American commerce
there. Should at prove true I will order
his immediate removal, with vour annra-
bation, and disclaim any indorsement of
tho movement.
(Signed) P. H. Sheridan.
Maj. Gen. Commanding.
A response was immediately telegraphed
to Gen. Sheridan, instructing him to de
pose Sedgwick with the first verification of
the letters reported movement, and to dis
avow any indorsementby theUnited States.
JUuch speculation has been indulged in
as to the actual business of Lieut. General
Sherman accompanying Minister Camp
bell to .Mexico. The truth however is, e
was designated as an advisor to that gentle
man, both as regards diplomatic affairs in
Mexico and military movements on the
uontier should emergency require anew
disposition of our troops, but since the re
ception of the Emperors intention with re
gard to the removal of his army, it is not
thought that such a necessity will occur.
The latest rumor received bv the Govern
ment respecting Maximilian is, that he was
at Orizaba, the French officials refusing to
permit him to leave Mexico unless he has
formally resigned his crown. .
On Thursday last Secretary Seward com
municated to the special Cabinet meeting
the drift of hia dispatch to Minister Bise-
low commenting on Napoleon's breach of
agreement io wimaraw the rrencn troops
irom .Mexico during this month. Alter it
was read the Cabinet unanimously voted
that its tone be made stronger in insiting
that the French troops be .withdrawn, ac-
coroing io ine programme agreeu on in
June last. The cable news lately shows
that this dispatch had its effect. The French
Minister .received a dispatch . to-dav bv
cable from Mouster, the French Minister of
tate, announcing that fourteen vessels
would sail immediately from Brest for the
French, troops in Mexico. Ten additional
vessels will leave by tho middle of De
cember. By the 15th of January all the
French troors will probably be out of Mex
ico, lhis solve3,authontativelyand hnalry,
the Franco-Mexican 'muddle.
The French Government has gracefully
yielded to the President's demand in re
lation to Mexican affairs. England may
prove more obstinate in the case of our de
mand for indemnity for losses from English
built blockade runners.

tain, the articles, therefore,! remain to be
formally executed and the time fixed for
its operation. It xst expected that the treaty
will be in full force by or before January,
1S0S, at which time the presentpostal laws
between the United States and Great
Britain will expire by limitation. The
paragraph recently published that a new

There was no, objection to Mr. Craig's
selling news any more than to his selling
sheese,' but wo did object to his seizing the
machinery which cost us such vast eums of
'money, and as journalists not insensible,
we hope, to the dignity and enterprise of
journalism, we did not care to place our
selves at th, mercy of a renter to get the
news when he pleased and give it to whom
lit suited'liis eood pleasure. A new asrent
,was elected, and everything went bri very
smoothly. JNewapapers .and organizations
of newspapers who publish our new3 have
been'approached hy him with offers of bet

have come to the" associated press and asked 1
that we enter into competioa with Mr.
Craig, arid allow them td buy our news and

their business interests. An organization

the propositions of this committe were not

press, 'and they Were dismissed. "'Tlfe
Western newspapers have now to elect
whether they will remain with us or make

more liberal and just. There is no discussion,
no controversy. If our brothers in the
West or indeed anywhere else, can purchase
the news more cheaply than we can, let
them do it, and may they prosper ; but the
New York-associated prrss is a . fact, it

THE FORTHCOMING MESSAGE.
Its Probnblo Recommendations and
Contents.
Special Dispatch to the Cincinnati Enquirer.
Washington, Nor; 27, 1866. More
thai) usual interest 13 manifested in the
forthcoming message of the President, and
to allay this" anxiety the newspaper corre
spondents nave indulged in many specula
tions as to the measures to be recommended
by Mr. Jobnsori ? bnt, save to members of
the Cabinet, if may be safely asserted that
the President has not communicated the
points embraced in the message. Never
theless, enough has been known through
persons who have had recent confidential
conversations with Mr, Johnson to enable
is to anticipate the character of the official
locument, and to state, with almost absolute
bertainty, a few of the measures that will
pe recommended to Congress. First, its
torie'il. f for the message is. already written)
fconcihatory, or more propeily it may be
feaid to be fair,- yet firm and free from the
(leuant temper which some have sup
posed Mr. Johnson could indulge in, and
again, those who are under the impression
ithat the President is determined to carry
iout what is termed "my policy," will be
deceived if they expect in the message
'propositions looking to the furthar prose
cution of that policy, for Mr. Johnson does
fiat admit that any part of his policy of
restoring the Sbnthern States remains to be
done so farvaa the Executive has "the power
to act. He claims that all that remains
unfinished-of-his plan is the admission of
Jhe legally elected loyal representatives,
and that work belongs solely to Congress.
Since Mr. Johnson has occupied the
Presidential chair, he has not deemed imv
further amendments to the Constitution ne
cessary; but in the forthcoming message,
in view of .the exigencies of tho day, Mr.
Johnson -will recommend several matters
hs subjects to be embraced in proposed
amendments to that instrument. Among
them may be mentioned the abolishment
jof the electoral college and the election of
'Presidratfarjd Vice President directly by
the votersllt'largeV without regard to State
(boundaries.
