LATEST INTELLIGENCE.

THE THREATENED ATTACK ON ROME.
The Florence correspondent of the Journal des
Debate says :
Garibaldi ham changed his place of abode to Sienna,
where he has been received with enthusiasm. He is ac-
companied by his sons and a kind of staff. There is every
reason to believe that bis intention is to effect a movement
in the Pontifical states. Indeed he does not conceal that
that is his design. The money and arms wanting
for the purpose have arrived, for there are men
here and in other localities who are receiving two francs
per day. The government has taken every precaution to
prevent an invasion. There are forty thousand troops
guarding the frontier; but if Garibaldi crosses it as a
private individual, and a rising takes place in the interior,
how will it be possible, it is naked, for the Italian govern-
ment to interpose Up to the present moment they have
eucceededin putting off the crisis by persuasion and advice,
but who can say that the government will always be
listened to

The Stanton imbroglio is the topic of the day.
The President on the sth inst., according to the Nero
York Times, addressed Mr. Stanton follows :—" Con-
siderations of public interest will persuade me
to accept your resignation, if tendered." To which
Stanton replied :—" Considerations of public interest had
prevailed with me to hold the office for months past, and
considerations of public interest will prevail with me to
hold it till the assembling of Congress."

The Berairf's version of the correspondence is uffirtyt,„
tially the same, excepting that it makes the Presidest
actually request Mr. Stanton to resign.
The affair causes great excitement in political circles,
and it appears to be generally apprehended that an issue
involving serious probabilities cannot be avoided. kr.
Johnson's power to remove the refractory secretary is denied
by some who contend that the Tenure of Office iku
deprived him of that power. The clause relating to
the case is u follows : " Provided, That the Sept,
taxies of State, Treasury, War, Navy, and Interior, sad
the Postmaster-General and Attorney-General, shall hold
their offices respectively daring the term of the President 140
appointed them and one month thereafter, inkiest to
removal by and with the advice and consent of the Senate.
It is understood th►t Mr. Johnson takes the ground that
he can remove Mr. Stanton even under this bill, as be did
not appoint him.
