It is no wonder that the President has assembled his Cabinet at this extraordinary period, and evoked their views upon the present overwhelming and most vital issue. It is gratifying that the clear and determined grounds of the President against the usurpation of the Central Directory are so fully sustained by his constitutional advisers. Elsewhere it will be seen that, in view of the critical condition of our internal affairs, Secretary Stanton has, under direction of the President, given an important order in behalf of liberty and law; and that he is strongly for sustaining the restoration policy of the President, which has been, as he states, agreed upon and consistently pursued by the Administration, and to effectuate which he is gratified that the President has convened the Cabinet to obtain their determination in the premises.
