DULLNESS EVERYWHERE-STILL HARPING ON THE REMOVAL OF SHERIDAN-THE ARGUMENTS TN THE BURBA TT CASE-SECRETARY STANTON VERSUS FBESTDENT JOHNSON-ABSENCE OF CABINET OF? FICERS-THE PRESIDENT TO HAKE ANOTHER TOUR, ETC, ETC. WASHINGTON, August 4.-The Capital, just at ?the present time, is absolutely devoid of tho slightest political activity. Dullness reigns every? where : at the White House, in the publie depart? ments, and along the business thoroughfares of the city. The reasons are very plain. So many have chosen this month to absent themselves from business and official duties that it could not be otherwise than dull. There a.-e two events, how? ever, which will be interesting, and probably causo some little excitement-when they occur. Tho first has been promised for some time, and now everybody is on the look out for it. That is the removal of General SHERIDAN. The other is the verdict of the jury in the SDBBATT trial. Tho counsel for the defence have concluded their addresses to the jury, and Judge PIERPONT, for the prosecution, commenced yesterday a very elaborate argument, which his friends say will not bi? concluded before Tuesday, and which they assert will have the effect of deciding the caso against the prisoner. For that, it is best to await without speculating. The jury have had a severe siege, and are all anxious to get buck to their business av; cations. They certainly occupy no enviable position. With regard to tho SHERIDAN rumor, or it may now be said to be a fact, as there is no doubt whatever of the President's intention to make a change, bis success; r is not to bs HAN? COCK, as was authoritatively asserted a few days ago, but General THOMAS. There aie very good grounds for making this assertion, arid it can bo ?fatted most positively that such was the intention of the President yesterday, and unless induced to change bis mind by tining influences and very im? portant considerations-which is within the range of possibility-the official order to that effect may be expected early this woek. This aflair has been .the source cf no little commotion in official cir? cles, and its agitation has, among other things, re? produced the old story that Mr. STANTON would resign his position ns Secretary of War. For two or three days Aft a report has been in circulation that several little episodes of not a very pleasant character bad occurred between the President and bis War Minister; but that is nothing uncommon, ss it is known that the wide differences of opinion which exist between the two have often been the occasion of very animated-to write wild Try--discussions. Possibly tho last mention? ed gentleman thinks that under tho tenure of office biD, the President cannot remove any ot tho military commanders, and some wiseacres say thai such is the belief, also, of General GRANT; such a notion is tho veriest nonsense imaginable. However far the General-in-Chief may not bo dis? posed to debate the meanings of constitutional provisions,-we certainly recognize that which as serta the President to be Commander-in-Chief of the Anny and Navy in its broadest sense. Upon . poetical matters, we all know the General to bo profouB/Ey reticent-he has never spoken a word lo his staff officers on these topics; but he is a stickler for obedience to orders, and it yet remains to be seen what position that prominent officer will take when a commission in official circles arises on the topic of relieving General SHERIDAN. Several of the members of the cabinet are now absent from the city, recuperating their energies for a long siege when Congress reassembles, and it is very probable that, before the summer is over, the President will take another tour-but this time on a quiet little trip for h s health, and the public need expect no speeches or great demonstrations, such as characterize! the previous tours of tho Chief Magistrate. It is not believed that any action will be taken by the President .towards the removal of General POSE from command of the District under his control, notwithstanding the urgent appeal made by a number of Alabamians for such action. The President does not consider that any but the greatest considera tl tiona should induce his inter? ference with the Military Commanders, as ho is not wining in ?" e least to obstruct io any way the smoovh Operations of the reconstruction law. It is nowa very general feeling among tho best friends of the South that the sooner Congress has its law of reconstruction practically adopted in the Sooth the sooner wo shall have an end to the com? plicated state of affaira in that section. No good can come of fighting that measure, and the true people of the South will gain more friends, who will be of service to them h ere aft ar in tito North and West, by adopting it sooner than Uiey over could by cither submission only, or by resenting the operations of Ute Statute. President making is at a discount. All parties aro unsettled, and, with Ute departure of Ute wire? pullers from Washington, has gono all talk of the next Presidency. It seems to be very generally conceded by the Republicans that at this time it is worse Utan folly for that party to talk about a candidato, though the removal of SHERIDAN, will, no doubt, give an impetus to Ute considerations of a proper person, such as at present is not thought of. The weather is not unpleasant in Washington, and a season of a ni us ementa is about to bo inau? gurated upon the return of thc National Base Ball Club from Ute war in the West ; there has been much additional interest given to the game, and we have one or more now nearly every day. The yachting fever is spreading and another yacht dub is promised this city of magnificent distances; but our German friends will carry off t io palm this week with their Schutzonfest. Great ore Ute prep? arations that have been modo, and "many will bc there to seo." Another Sunday paper, to be called tho Home Obrele, promises to moko its appearance in this city on Ute 11th inst. Two are already braving thc breakers of hardtimes; bat tho more the merrier are probably tho sentiment that animates the movers in Ute new enterprise. HAL. SUICIDE OF A BEAUFORT PLANTER.-We clip from I ? Ute Phoenix of yesterday, the following sad account of a suicido that occurred in that city. Mr. BEN? JAMIN THOMPSON, a citizen of St. Peter's Parish, Beaufort District, who has for some time past been much depressed in spirits, on account of his great ( losses during the war, and who has several times i recently attempted to terminato his existence, was brought to thi3 city Sunday evening, aud lodged in tho lunatic asylum; and although great care and attention wore exercised Ute watchman visiting Lis room every half hour during the night-he committed suicide yesterday morning about four o'clock by hanging hiceself with his suspenders and a piece of tho sheet from lus bod. Whon discovered the alarm waa given and Dr. PABEEB, the Superintendent, sent for. Every effort was mado to resuscitate tho unfortunate man, but it FOB of no avail. An in? quest was held upon the body by Coroner THOMAS P. WALSER, and the jury rendered a verdict in ac? cordance with the above facts. Mr. THOMPSON was a wealthy planter, and leaves four children and a large circle of friends to lament his untime? ly end. His remains will be taken to Charleston for interment. Air UNFORTUNATE AFFRAY.-A difficulty occurred a few days ago about five miles from this place, between two freedmen. Aaron Crosland and Toni McCray, in which tho latter was struck in the nead with a hoe in the hands of the former, severely fracturing his skulk The injury is said ta be serious, but it is believed that the injured party will recover.-Bennetli?ule Herald.
