Auoi/st 20.?The Johnson and Grant cor respondence relative to Sheridan's removal, is published this morning in thc'&cw York JIc raW and Boston Post. The following is White Honso gossip:?Sher idan, .loavin'g (he jFifth .Military District in ebargo.ofHartaufFwuT proceed to the West and relieve Hancock, who will then assume permanent charge of the Fifth District. Grant's letter to the President concerning Sheridan's removal says: "The people .-Who have sacrificed lives aud spent dollars for the cpuntry's. salvation arc entirely opposed to Sheridan's removal. He has performed his 'duties faithfully and -intelligently, aud his re moval will be regarded as an effort to defeat Congressional views, and will embolden to re newed opposition those who have endeavoured to break up the government by arms. Gen. ThouiUB lias repeatedly objected to being placed in oharge^of either of the live districts. Han cock's department is intricate, and he should not be removed." Grant adds that there are military, pecuniary, and, above all, patriotic reasons why this order should not be insisted upon. 9 The President replied, "I am not aware that the question of Sheridan's removal had been submitted to the people. It would be unjust to the army , to assume that Sheridan alone is capable of commanding the Fifth District. Sheridan has rendered .himself obnoxious by his manner of executing the law. and more by his assuming authority mit granted to him. His rule has been one of absolute tyranny, without reference to the principles of our gov ernment, or the nature of free institute ns. His course has seriously interfered with harmony and the speedy execution of the acts of Con gress. His removal cannot bo regarded as in tended to defeat thet?. The object of the change is to facilitate their execution through nn officer who ha? never failed td obey the statutes of the land, and who within his juris diction will demand a like obedience from others." The President compliments Thomas and Hancock, and feels assured that under General Sherman's guidance. Sheridan trill win honor fighting Tmliaiis.. In conclusion, the President fails to perceive any military, pecu niary or patriotic reasons why this order should not be carried into effect. AuaUMT 27.?The President has assigned Gen.

Hinnieker's IJridge as it now stumls is nothing more nor less than a public nuisar.ee. This assertion is predicated upon two facts ; first, that is a ttdl bridge; ^econd, that it is a dangerous bridge. This bridge like most bridge* of the kind, has been finished merely to subserve the purpose oO its erection, ami without an eye to safely. Con trary to the. custom of toll bridges, its keep er requires loll both going and coming the same day. which makes it very ? expensive to persons who h ive "much crossing to do. The bridge cart be turned over to the Commission ers of Or.uigeburg and Harnwell Districts, just so soon as they will pay what it cost to have it put up. Mr. l.afitte, however, the en terprising and generous constructor has proffer ed to release his claim upon realizing one half what it cost him to build it. which is about three hundred dollars. Will not the merchants of Graham's Turn Out and Hallnberg give their attention to this matter, and recommend it to the Commission ers? We think it will pay them. PAYSAX.

About a thousand colored men were present, one-fifth ofwhoin were armed with guns 01 muskets, and when the bunks were? opened. Mr. Smith, the Chair man bf the Hoard, made a brief address, ex planatory of the Reconstruction Acts and the duties of the frcedmen as good citizens in e.x crcising their rights under them and preser ving the peace. This was received with con siderable and merited satisfaction, when some of the crowd requested his opinion as to the rights of (he planters with whom they had con tracted for labor, to deduct from their wages for the time during which they were absent from work for the purpose of l> sing registered. .Mr. Smith made the proper response, but was interrupted by his colleague, the colored man Aaron Logan, who proceeded to harangue the crowd, and in inflammatory language to declaim against the right of white me:: to prevent the carrying of arms by frcedmen. lie Said, also, that the planters should not interfere with the colored people in registering, nor deduct from their wages, and that there was nothing in the law, nor in General Sickles'orders to prevent them from exercising their rights to the fullest extent. That now was the time when the frcedmen should show that they p isscsscd rights which they meant to maintain, and that when an election took place they ought to vote for white Radicals if they could be found, or else to fill the offices by men of their own color. That the native whites of the Stute, ??re not I iobe trusted, and if permitted, would enact laws operating against the black man. and, therefore, black men should be elected to make laws for themselves, He continued in this .strain, and in language calculated to cxeitc the passions,of the crowd, until Mr. Smith, who had vainly endeavored to porsuadc him t-> desist, exercised his author ity as Chairman of the Hoard, and adjourned its session. It was hoped that this would have prevented the difficulties which were im minent, bijf such did not prove to be the case. The Hoard adjoiirucd to meet at the Mount )Mpa.Hni)t PoJI, in Christ Church Parish, on Moipday, Wljon fjjp hookas wore oponci] on that day, about three j|un<)rc<) frcedmen were on the grojind, a considerable proportion of whom worn nipplied \yi|h puppets, gut?:, and bind gcoijs. Mr. Smith again made a brief address similar to the one delivered at the pojl in St Thomas, and was agaii) interrupted by Logan wlm was, if possible, more violent, in bis Ian imago, and seemingly piorp disposed to engen der strife. He was, as on the former nooaaion requested to desist, but declined so t?i do; am Mr. Smith, to avoid trouble, closed the poll callus to the oityj nnd reported (ho facta to (Jeijelifjl^ Cht/., the Coidhialtdunt of this |jost> On tHc Bahic boat Came Logan^" wlioval^|put cd on the-'General to prdsoriV a stattTmc^of the caso. wYltCd General Clitz.,had bfcert .ap prised of/, all (be circumstance:*!' he Jroiuptly ordered tue nrrcat of Logan rind 'itia jdoarteta*. tion in Castle Pinchnoy, on a charge of itripc ding Registration. Yeslerduy Mr. Smith returned to Mount Pleasant, accompanied by Major O'Rricn, the Provost' Marshal, wtfl/eTifevo, of tbis^pdst, wlw went to ensure tho preservation of order. The poll was re opened and the frcedmen invited to conic forward and register, hut they declined to do so unless there was a black man sitting .on the Hoard, nnd demanded tho r?lc?^e of Logart. Boeing that a number of them were armed as on the day.before, Major O'Rrien explained to them that they were violating the express or ders of Genera! Sickles, and commanded them to surrender their weapons. They paid no at tention whatever to his orders, and as he was not supported by a force sufficient to ensure obed'uncc, ho retired, unwilling to provoke a disturbance which he Was not in a position to ? jUell. and returning to the city, reported the condition of alfairs to General Clitz. , The frcedmen aftorwnrds dispersed, but not without threats that they would burn the'village if-they were not permitted to exercise such rights as Logan liad declared they were entitled to cn 1 joy. We understand that General Clitz will go to Mount Pleasant this tnorniug, with a suf ?eiont force to suppress any disorderly conduct which may occur amongst the freodmen. who doubtless will again assemble, and to arrest al( who appear armed oil the scene.

Mrs. Melver, in the meantime, had proceeded him to the yard, and was standing near (he poultry house, when her son came out of the house, with the gun.
