" IT is currently reported, in Wash

Elq. has resigned the office of Attorney
General of the United States. There is
no reasons to doubt the report. We
are glad the gentleman has fitown wisdom
in ose influice. He certainly could not
have been ignorant, that his own party
bega n toexpiefs dislike at his conduct.
We have not learned what little snug
office, cycllf fiikcd„6"his capacity, is
preparing lor the Hon. Gentleman.•

gloomy, when so many of our great men
arc about to retire from public life.
