An Outrage.

We regret to state that the late Secretary OF the Treas
uTy has fit since the death of General Taylor and
since he knew that he the Secretary of the Treasury
only by suerance, to worthy, faithful and hon
public servant We alude to the dismissal of James
w Garner, who has been for fifteen years messenger
in the First Auditors Office Mr. Meredith will scarcely
say that he had any adequate for this proscrp
ton. If he Does will meet him by proof of his hav

paid $500 for arranging FASTING, and cancelng treasury
notes" That clerk has long since been promo

duties. has discharged those of the clerks ship which
have mentioned, without receiving dollar for it. He
has had many three and four millions of dollars in
treas ury notes in bis possession at time and
so far are advised, has found fault with him.
From time to time he has received testimonials from all
who connected with him in the public service that he
has discharged his duty with fidelity He has been regular

held his position only temporarily, has been guilty
of the gross indelicacy-to call it by harsher
of Diminishing such man from the public service. But
cannot believe that Mr. Fillmore will permit his ad-

last message which have been sent to Congress
on Monday week:
WASHINGTON, July H.
IL is now ascernined thai upon the general
state county had been prepared by the late Piesi
dent, Just TO his death but II was not entirely
finished when he seized with his disease
The principles OF fully discussed and seuled in
cabinet session, and tue writing out committed TO Secre-
tary Clayton
Ii was to have been presented on Monday last.
Ii is said have sustained the Presidents policy with
emphasis. 1t commended the tnsediSe admission oil
fornia and NsD Nsrc0, States that had already
formed themselves government and II declared that
the President Wosd haze pec"!:d Texas rom taking pos
session OF any portion of New Mexico by all the al
his dsposaI Il.
Those who have seen III. ,irau ght OF deposited in
the State -partmen cay that 1t IS most powerful and
exciting document. ~
Creai curiosity exists here now know whether Fill
more will adopt farewell oil the late
ted President whether he will attempt strike out some
com promising conrse oil his own
On the other hand il positively stated that two night,
after the Presidents DEATH document from the governor
OF Texas received al Washington addressed to the
President. protesting against the employment oil force
The governor of Texas demands the withdrawal OF the
United States troops from New Mexico, and OF The or
ders directing them resist any assertion OF jurisdiction
on the part Of Texas We have read The enthusiastic
and indignant resolutions and speeches OF the large meet
ing at the capital OF Texas, breathing the most deter
mined spirit OF resistance federal interference with the
rights of Texas east OF the Rio Grande Had "ihe
Presidents policy" been carried out, collision would
have inevitably ensued and The Union would have been
shivered. We cannot believe that President Fillmore
with the strong sense attributed 10 him. and under the
advice of clear beaded and saxacous statesmen, will fol
one moment, think OF revvlng such farewell testa
ment" the work OF selfish cabinet cksters, who would
peril the Union for their sinister purposes.
