A correspondent of the Bosloa 'Adver tiser, who -claims to have had recent in terviews with Senator Sumner and Wil son and Gen. Butler, communicates to that paper what purports to be their views concerning prominent political top ics and leading statesmen. His report is at least gossipy and entertaining, as personal matters usually are, even if he is not always accurate. MR. ETJHSER OH STAST05. Referring to Secretary ; Stanton's re moval, Mr. Sumner pronounced the event "a national calamity," because the "reb els are everywhere encouraged by it," a3 they see from it that the President 13 with them. Yet he i3 confident "that re construction on just principles will pre vail in the end," though its trials are generally increased.., In answer to an observation of 'the correspondent, Mr. Sumner said of Mr.' Stanton: 'Stanton has not the elements of per sonal popularity. He never cultivated the amenities. He is often impatient, cold, and even harsh and antagonistic, but he is always a patriot. His fidelity has been constant, down to the last. Here," he added, handing it to me, "is a letter from a gentleman in Washington, who saw him often 'in his last official du ne,' and calls him 'one of the purest and best of men.' Such will be . the judgment of history. Personally he must be glad to be relieved. But the office need him still longer. Nobody, who did not see him habitually during the war; can comprehend the vigor, constancy, and extent of his labors, early and late, day and night making the War Office his bivouac. I remember taking Mr. Emerson with me to visit him at the War Department, and we found him snatch ing a repast among his files of papers, and attending to his business while he ate. I think ray companion was much impressed at the scene. But this was typical, Mr. Lincoln had great faith in him, and was truly attached to him. This was because of his great usefulness. I recall gratefully that during all this time he sympathized with me in efforts to induce a Proclamation of Emancipa tion. He desired it" months bsfore it came. When we met we often spoke of the project and regretted the delay. The night of Mr. Lincoln's death he showed character,' as he' gave his, cHers and witch---'-! tho dvin Pres;,! 1. - In u.it room ,.3 was Cu:r... .,.::r, j' Ha must have a ' r-.at ph-, - ' - Louvoi3, Pitt, and Carnot were greatly the late Judge Collamer were good War Ministers the greatest, btanton, must find a place in this group.' GENERAL CRAST The Senator confessed .himself puz zled by the position of General Grant. In reference to his. acceptance or. ine portfolio of the War Department, he said: "There can be no military obligation on a General, to. assume a civil office. Grant mijrht have refused and thrilled the country to the confusion of the President and the rebels, bo, at last, it seems to me. Such a refusal would have been no- tice that a patriot like Stanton should not be struck througn. nim, ana wouia have helped to make the President pow- erless. It would have been notice also to the -rebels, that they could have no hone through him. I confess this is what I most, long for. Now. is the time to speak out for our4 country. Every Pres- idential order signed by Grant is an en couragement to the old rebel spirit. But while at the War Department. Grant 13 in a certain sense what Lord Derby cal led himself theiher day, 'a stop gag. He at least prevents a rebel from being thrust into the office, btanton has had confidence in him always: although Grant is so habitually reserved and tac hum that it is difficult to know his real position. . In response to the question whether General Grant was a candidate for the Presidency. Mr. Sumner said that he did not know, though there were things that looked that way He continued: "This is not like Grant, who is a thor- ourh modesi gentleman. Wellington, whom he resembles in some respects, was older and more experienced when he entered civil life, and it is well known with what distrust, liut the great difi- culty of his posuion is that we are left in hnrrowjDir nnrirtajr -wnn rogrti ' 10 his opinions. We can say that, as Pres - ident, he would give to the freedmen, during, the coming year, and through the process of reconstruction, that kindly and sympathetic support : which they need? Can we auord iq oe m any uncertainty on this, point? 1 have from the begin- iiing been insisting on 'irreversible guar antees.' Our next President must be himself an irreversible guarantee.' Is Grant such ? I wish I knew. Personal- ly, l nue mm. ia vuurersauon ne is neat and precise, with clean cut ideas w a a 1 " T . . and words." ANDREW JOHSSOaV -Mr. Sumner's estimate of the Presi dent was expressed freely, as follows: The President is preverse. pi-head- ed, and brutal. ' His talent, such as it is, comes . from pugnacity,. or as phrenolo- gists have it, combativeness. When ar- oused against Jeff. Davjs in the Senate, .he was on the right side, and his temper gave re to arguments additional force. Wei all sympathized with him then. "We did not know how foolish and shallow he was, nor did we see his prejudices. Little did t we tniUiC ci tne evu ne. wouia cq i l have j often taid that no man in history has ev er done so much evil to his country in the same time. Of cousse he is a usurp and a tyrant. The wonder is Congress did not act accordingly long ago." , He- complained of . the hesitation . of Congress on the impeachment question, which he considered characteristic of its whole course during the war. In answer to a qufstion inregard to the causes which have influenced Congress espe cially the Senates-he spoke as follows cf some of the more conservat!ve Republi can Senaiois: "Edmunds, of Vermont, for instance, coming from that earnest and determined State, is a prodigy of obstructiveness and technicality. So, also, is Conklin, com ing from Central New York, and being still a young man of admirable tal ents and with a great fortune, if he dees not get shipwrecked at the beginning. Patterson, of New HampshireTand re lioghuysen, of New Jersey, have good seniiments, and give you the impression of personal purity ; but it is strange that they do not see that something more is needed in dealing with rebels and their present chief Johnson. Of these Fess enden is the captain, so at least it seems to me." . SENATOR FESSENDEN18 CHARACTER was delineated as follows: "His forte is personality. He runs to personalities as a duck to water if not in language, then in manner and tone. He is nothing if not personal. Until he gets heated he is dull. He always quar relled with everybody over the appropri ation bills which he conducted. The discussion was once prolonged jar. John Sherman in the same place is always amiable often opposes your motion, but without discourtesy. Fessenden comes into a debate as the Missouri enters the Mississippi, and discolors it with temper filled and surcharged with sediment. But he has not the volume of the great river. He is of much finer fibre than An! ew Johnson, but resembles the President in prejudice and talent for combativeness. His words are more select, and his sen tences better. He Is mere accurate in speech and logical in form. As a lawyer he is of nisi prius order. There is noth ing of the jurist in. his attainments or hi3 nature. From his position he haa exercised much influence in the Senate ; but from the beginning he has been a drag on reconstruction. He has always S2?.r4ed to have a soft side for Andrew Jchnsru ; I ut his report on reconstruction is excellent it is the best thing he ever J. ani it contains no personality. . He friends, and sat side by side ; but on one occasion he flashed upon th6 judge as up on everybody else," . GEN. BUTLER ON JOHNSON. The next celebrity upon which the cor respondent of the Advertiser called was Gen. Butler, and the conversation very natural turned upon President Johnson an(j nj3 removal of Stanton, Sheridan and Sickles. If the President could be cal- culaied unon as other men. he thought these acts might be regarded as part of a pjan t0 the control of he Govern raeiit, and that is putting Gen. Grant in- t0 lne War Department his object was to familiarize the army with his control. But the imbecility and wavering of the President heretofore relieved the country from any pressing belief of danger. Johnson." he thought, "lacks courage ac(j capacity," but if he should reorgan ize his Cabinet with Jerry Black at its head, he could hardly predict the result. Of ME. SLACK he said: 'He is a man of decided genius er ratic. bold, and of quick preceptions, and with strong reliance upon his own pow ers. He believes thoroughly in the un constitutionality of the war, and the con sequent illegality of every act of legisla tion erowinsr out oi it. iNot doubting on these points, he would have no hesitancy ia following their plans to their logical sequence, which would be, of course, that Congress was an. illegal body, its acts without binding force or effect, and that it was the duty of the President to save the Government by an exercise of Executive power, and that such action would be conservative and not revolution ary ; and if ho wa iu me Government I believe he would shape us course to that end, under the full conviction that 1 tion, and for the best interests of the country. This, with him, would be true conservatism. H8 looks upon any other and of course the Congressional recon- struetion, as revolutionary snd lending to despotism. Upon his accession to the Cabinet I should look for great peril to the country, because there is no man so dancrerou3 as he will be acting cour ageously in support of the wrong, under the conviction that be is in the right.;' CE5. CHART'S POSITION. 'Grant, he said, "has taken upon himself a veiy difficult and dangerou role. If he can carry himself safely through it. I shall give him credit for more ability than I have ever been in- chned to do. He has not the excuse As a mili- that he acted under orders tary cfiicer be could not be ordered to take a purely civil office, as the office of Secretary of War is. Such an appoint iment would pe simply a request.. And nobody saw more clearly the difference between a request and an order than Grant, when he instructed Sheridan that Stanbrry's opinion, then . published by tne uommancier-m-chiei tor the gui - danco cf the District Commanders, was not ah order, and, therefore, as military men, they were not bound ty it, but could oliow their own judgment. Yet his liends claim for him thaLhe has twice, n his own person, constructed the P. es- ident's request into an crder first, when invned to 'swing round the circle, fid again, when lavited to the VtarOthcca, ad izkrim. If G ant accented the War Office froji the raoiire to interpo'e his high position and personal efforts to i.tve the country from the illegal rd unpatri otic acts of the Pies dent, then every rue man should honor him for his patri otism, and sustain him to the utmost ex eat, whatever may be their personal re ations to him, or their opinions as to his itness for a civil office : and," added the General with emphasis, "no man will go urther than I will m that direction." STAMT05 AND SEWARD. Gen. Butler's opinion cf Secretary Stanton differed but little from that of Mr. Sumner, and he expressed the opin ion that Congress would reinstate him promptly on reassembling. Of Mr. Seward, he said : It seems to me that there can be but one explanation of Seward's course the determination to run the Republican par ty, because of what seems to him its in gratitude in preferring Mr. Lincoln. Seward holds that he was the father of our party, and one could easily suppose the deep grief and mortification which being ?et aside might cause him. Any other theory would only lead to the con clusion that Seward's intelect was wan ing, because the author of the irrepress ible conflict could never be so stupid. The inevitable consequence of Johnson's can t believe that Seward fails to see, and if so, why does he fail to oppose the m m -W 1 course ot the executive, or witnaraw himself from the Cabinet? There is certainly nothing in our foreign relations hat requires him to act. IMPEACHMENT, Mr. Butler thought, was sure to come, but that it had been delayed by the elec tion of Mr. Wade, President of the Sen ate. The failure of the impeachment he thought due to the reorgnization of the Houe 'Judiciary Committee at the begin ning of the Fortieth Congress. A3 to the uture o! this quesiion, he said : "I c'aim that the people always have been and are now ready for impeach ment and will now demand it. New, however., the condition has changed. If Congress, on meeting in November, should commence th9 impeachment, and proceed with all reasonable rapidity ; Johnson could not be removed till spring unless they came up to what clearly is the land practice, that he should be de posed upon articles being presented to the Senate. Now, sappose that Johnson should not be removed till the spring that would be too late for Mr. Wade to aid himself by Executive power in the Convention which will be held in May or June. But as Mr. Wade is known to be thoroughly loyal to the Republicau party and would heartily sustain the nominee of that Conven'ion with all the power cf the Administration, whoever should be nominated, each and all of the gentlemen believing themselves to have possibilities of being candidates, will de sire that the Administration shall be in Mr. Wade's hand rather than in Mr. Johnson's; and therefore being con vinced that impeachment is just, and ought to be done will become easily convinced of its policy, especially as they cannot fail to see that the people demand it. and that the situation of the country requires it for it is the only solution of our troubles, and the great pacificator. "For myself," added the General, "I have never doubted that it would come to this. I have got accustomed to have my opinions upon public affairs made Or SENATOR WADE he said : Among tue many aoie men wno may have hopes cf the Presidency, Mr. Wade siands in the posi ion of being a true representative of Radical Republicanism, honest, sinjle-hearted, courageous, firm; from the people and after the people,' he has never failed lo rely upon them, and never has been found wrong." CENS. SHERIDAN, 8ICKLE3. AND CANST. Of Gen. Sheridan he sa'd that 'jf vr6 are to have a purely military man for President, Sheridan, perhaps, is the best of any- He has vhown, in addition to his brilliant qualities as soldier, that hia political instincts (because he has had : - I c-. . DO irululuLi I am uue auu nu.. oitfcias has more political experience, and has shown a comprehension of affairs which was to have been expected from one taught in the Democratic faith, and bs suff ered wounds and mutilation to serve the country in the war in opposition to his political ideas. Canby, who is sent to take his place, is a gentleman and a true soldier, who will carry out ihe or ders of his superior officers, whatever may be his own opinion cf the question at issue. But he is so truly loyal to the country that the President could expect no aid from htm in any revolutionary movement he may make at Washrngtoa Hence, probably, his removal to Charles ton. But, as I said before, he may have no fear of the President in that direction. The West is true, and outvie3 the East ia Radical RepuLlicauisi. And, on any attempt to overturn the Government, they would be reckoned by hundreds cf thousands oa their march to sustain it." GEN. LOG AH. "Gen. Logan, who is a true represen tative man, acd Illinois alone can fur nish men enough to put Jchcscn down. Ey the way, the country does not keev how much it is Indebted to Lo-an. ac-J with true modesty he will ne?pr tell theni. ' When Gen. Grant v,-3 i.T.r'.i:Lt zi'Ci delay cf Gen. Thomas in Cjhtirg tha battle of Nashville, which en Jed ia tha defeat cf Hood's array, he sent Levari with an order to supercede hia and tako command of the army himself. Oa ar ming ia the Department, Lcgm fc:ad that Thomas was aboat to fighf I'erlic the danger cf changing commanders un der such circumstances, he dec'iced to serve the order to tale command, at leas; til after the battle. Such unselush cess as that on the part cf Logan ia not loo common, and such patriotism is an as surance that the interests of the country will be safe in his hands, ia whatever po sition he may be put." . mr. Wilson's views or the soctii. Mr. Wilson's opinion cf the situation. and especially cf ths prospects ia tho South, was expressed as lollows: ' "Nothirjg that ths President hss dancJ has weakened my confidence at all in tha complete triumph of our friends ia tha Southern country. I believe that tha negroes who have been enfranchised and the loyal men of these States will carry the election, will ccnforu-i thei? Consti tutions to the requirement cf CzrHfr in sympathy with ihe Republican fariy of tho United States, and thit ifo i'fesi- dent can do novhiog that will prevent this. I beliete that bis pol:cy and bis condjet have the tendency to embitter and ea courase the rebels, to ret uo bad feel- W A ings and make .hings unpleasant. B.it events are beyond his power and control. and his course will only sink him-elf. his ideas and policy, and the friends who gather arouud him. This is my idea of the effect of what he ha3 done, that his conduct will contribute to the strength ening of the Republicans in tha loyal States." On the subject of impeachment, ha expressed the opinion that "the great mass of the Republican party believa that the President will be impeacheJi and. that he deserves impeachment." C EN. GRANT, he thought, had taken the position cf Secretary of War for the sake cf doing good to the country. Secretary Stantoa held it for the same purpose for eighteen raonih'. He had talked who. Gea. Grant and Stanton ca this subject, and he thought it would be found that thsia was a clear understanding between then. He said: 'Gen. Grant, as early a.i tSa summer of 1S03, when before Vicksburg, wrota a letter saying, much a3 he wanted to see peace, he wa3 opposed to any peac3 till we had emancipation in the country. During the last term, when Congress passed the constitutional amendment, ha urged with all Southern men who cama lo him at Washington, warmlyr to adopt it. He stood entirely with Congress. During the whole time, while tha South ern men came to him such as Gov. Orr, cf Souih Carolina, and Gov. Brown, of Georgia, and other leadio? politicians he told them to go to the Republican leaders in Congress that they had tha power, and notao go to any Ncrthsra Copperhead, or hivye anything to do wi.h them. He told them that the men who opposed the war would nerer again bo permuted to govern the country cr hava any part in its government; that tha Southern men made a creat mhtaka ia iobk'ng to these Northern Copperheads to aid them in getting back; that the more they looked'to thera the mere ex citing the Republicans would be and ought to be, and that his advice, lo theui was to consult wi.h the RepuM cans and lo adopt the ccnsJ'.utioual amendmecf, and to give universal suffrage; that tha Republicans would exact it, and they ouht to do it. JOHNSON. Wilson's estimate cf Preside Sir. Johnson's character doe3Eot yary mate rially from that of others. Ha said: I think the President will go by fits and staru, in carrying out any policy. He is juit this kind of a man; he is not a man who is governed and gukied by fixed and settled principles; he is a man that is governed by his passions a raaa of passionate temper and while he af fects to be a man of will, ha is not a firm? man but an obstinate man, which is quite a different thing. He goes by fits and suns ; in fact, he acts like a "felloa oa a bust," who goes to sleep and wakes on and breaks thing3, and then goes to sleep 5in, and so on until he is sober. After oue or vhese great passion?, and having avenged himsc-.S either by work'cract. the President calms down. In my ide hs is a foolish man, governed byjjuts c pa&3ion and temper and h8 is a dU.ip pointed man because he really believed he was gc:ng to succeed." "As an evidence cf the temper cf tho President, I can tell you one secret cf the White Houe. A primmest Demo crat whose name is known everywhere a man whom the President cften ccnsulrs, tut a personal friend cf S-ac'.cn, called, ca the Pr23;dem, and earnestly admsd him no; lo remove the Secretary. He sari I use hi3 own words that the President raved like a mad bull, and swore that ha would remove S'.anton. His friends tell him that ia hi3 judgmenr it would lead ly his own impeachment by Centres. Jzz sen said they might impeach; that h? would turn Stantca out if he wa3 tried and shot for it!' The sans friend tail that Johnjcn had been acting in a t:rrj bb prssioa lately all the tims." ' si ' ' i i r:.
