Hon. ELISHA WHrTrLEsEy has resigned his
office as FIRST Comptroller of the Treasury In an
editorial letter of the Syracuse Star, the subject is
spoken Of S follows.
This announcement will lie a most welcome one IN
the boss OF this officer, nor will tho Departments l,e
Closed IN honor OF his retirement. We venture tn
say that no other in the Government Ser
vice during the Wing Administ alton (unc.s il be
Thomas Corwin) has been the occasion of so much
trouble and dissatisfaction as this same Mr. Elisha
Wh'ulesey. He seemed to regard himself as the
great gun OF the Government aud as being clothed
with more powers and responsibilities than call the
world and the rest Of mank ind" else. He claimed
and $50 far as to create delays in business until sue
cessor should take his place. exercised both admin
stratve and judicial powers. He revised and set
aside the adludcations of u :. Circuit and District
Judges and, until threatened with removal from Of
hce, deficd the determinations and denied the pre
negatives Of the United States Supreme Court in
bank session. So also he clashed with members OF
the Cabinet in the exercise Of their duties and ON
questions of law refused To- recognize and abide by
the opinions Of the Attorney General of the United
States. This great man who knows so much more
than every body else, say, has resigned and il is
not altogether improbable that he will he comnelled
to stay resigned in political obscurity till death shall
gather him to his fathers.
His loss will be felt in this Territory. c.pcc;aI,,
