WASHINGTON.

Cabinet Meeting General Sheridan to ! Removed Grant Opposed 10 th'j Removal. Washington, July 30. The regular Tuesday meetiugof the Cabinet today "was protracted, although the Secretary of State and the Attorney General were not present. The principal feature of the day's session is understood to have been the consideration of Gen. Sheridan's successor. The President seemed disposed to select Gen. Hancock, and it is more than probable that he wiil.be named ia the course of a few days as the commander of Military District, No. 5. Gen. Grant arrived to-day. It is claimed in some quarters that he may operate against Gen. Sheridan's being relieved, but the President has stated to several gentlemen within a few hours that his mind is fully made up in the premises. Washington, July 31. In the Surratt trial Mr. Merrick commenced an address to the jury this morning in behalf of the defense. LOUISVILLE. An Editor Beaten Hotel Safe Robbed Steamer Mghtinzale Aground. Louisville.

Conrad Schook robbed the Shelby House safe of $1,500. He was arrested on the Cincinnati mail boat and $1,300 recovered. The steamer Nightingale is aground on Flint Island bar. fche exhausted her fuel and broke her guards in attempting to get off. The Nationals " at Chicago. The visit of the National Base Ball Club, of Washington City, to Chicago, and its signal defeat by the Excelsiors of that city, has been the topic of discussion for the past few days among the spo. ting circles and by the newspapers. A large amount of. money changed hands on the result of the game, and the Tribune of that city imputed the gambling operations and the heavy losses to the dishonest connivance, of the "Nationals." .The Tribune, however, the next day very promptly corrected its imputation, and also stated some facts which will be of interest to " ballists" hereabouts, as follows: We are satisfied that the members of the Club are neither "professional" players nor gamblers, but merely clerks in the Departments, and citizens of Washington, of exemplary character, who have taken up the game of base ball for exercise merely, and have brought themselves to a higher state of drill than is customary in the game by longer practice than others. Some of the members of the Club, we find, are our personal acquaintances, for who.-e character we are able to vouch. The following list has been handed to us by the President of the Club. Mr. Frank Jones, sliowii'g the names and occupations of the gentlemen who have participated in the game since the Club left Washington: W. F. Williams, law "student. F. B. Norton, Clerk of Treasury. G. H. E. Fletcher, Clerk Third-Auditor's office. II. C. McLean, Clerk Third Auditor's office. E. A. Parker, Clerk Internal Revenue Department. E. G. Smith, Clerk Fourth Auditor's office. Geo. H. Fox. graduate (July 3rd) Georgetown Coliege. S. L. Studley, Clerk Treasury. H. W. Berthrong, Clerk Comptroller of the Currency. G. Wrk'ht, Clerk 233 Pennsylvania Avenue. A. V. Robinson, Clerk, Washington.-D. C. The game played with the Forest City Club, of Rockford, was fairly won by the latter, and the result is to be attributed undoubtedly to the fatigue of the Nationals.' resulting from long travtl and constant playing since the 11th of the present month. That there was a large amount of gambling on the ground is true. Those who bet their money on the Nationals.it appears, were parties who came hither of their own volition from St. Louis, and others who live in Chicago. At all events, we are assured and we believe that they were not members of tbe National Club, nor any friends of theirs The practice of gambling at these base ball matches, we are assured, is condemned by none more severely than by the Nationals, and on the grounds of the Club at Washington any man found betting is, by the rules of the Club, put off the grounds, and if he be a member cf the Ciub he is liable to expulsion. Capt. Mikes, who left New York on the 4th of June, on the hfe-pre carrlnff To ft VnTlTarll fVl til A English coast in safety a few days since. He certainly deserves a place among the naval heroes ot the age The design of the raft is not to meet

the wants of voyagera for pleasure, for it is only eighteen inches deep, and affords no protection against the weather. It is an invention for insuring the safety of shipwrecked persons, who are satisfied with saving their lives, and do not ask for state-rooms and other conveniences. The plan seemed a good one, but Capt. Mikes wanted it practically tested. The trial has proved successful, and the bold mariner has won the gratitude of all " who go down to the sea in ships." Cine in n ati Gazette . The fact that Gen. Sickles rides around in an elegant carriage, drawn by four black horses, has been made the subject of a good deal of comment by those who use the terms " monarchy, " " satrapy, " etc., in speaking of the military rule of the South. Mr. Kldridge brought the subject up in Congress, and the New York Express and other papers of the same class have had their fling at

Gen. feickles on the same subject. In letter to Mr. Bingham, thanking him for his defence against these sneers. Gen. Sickles says: " You may relieve his (Eldridge's) anxiety with the consoling information that iny equipage has not cost him nor any of his friends anything, said equipage being the cherished gift of my comrades of the Third Army Corps. " General Sickles had a leg shot off at Gettysburg, and many of his soldiers and officers of the Third Corps gave a day's pay each to purchase a carriage and horses for their old commander. The only " monarchy " of which this equipage is a badge, is the rule which the General has over the affections of his old comrades-in-arms. Boston Advertiser. Th& Cincinnati Enquirer says: "In proof of dull times, we were informed yesterday evenin? by a Fourth Street merchant, who pays a rental of $3,000 per 3ear, that his sales for the past two days amounted to exactly seventyfive cents. We advised him to take Horace Greeley's advice: Shut up shop and go a fishing." ARCHITECTS. Robert Boyd, Architect, NO. ; CHANDLER'S BLOCK.
