So considerable has been the falling off from
custom receipts for some months past, that Secre-
tary Cobbs estimate for the 6scal year ending the

MR.. CoBB's VISIT To GEORGIA
Dir. Cobb's prolonged visit In Georgia can be at
tributed to nothing except sense of danger as to
fhe result of the election. The Agasta Coastitn

speak there, contains extracts from his Sauatter
Sovereignty speeches in New Hampshire, and also
IN 1866 also a letter of Mr.. Cobb refusing
Connecticut clerk in his department leave of alb
benee from his desk to further the interests of the
Democracy precedent to the election. The Con-
stitationaiist thinks that what was good doctrine
TO the subordinate should be to the superior. Mr..
Cobb may plead to this that we are 10 the midst
of revolution bloodless as yet, etc.

reliably that Mr. Breckenridge before leaving this
city, said there was no doubt about Kentucky.
But what he especially wanted was an overwhelm-

Mr. Cobb has neither resigned nor left the
city, as reported. He is confined to his
home by painful indisposition.
An informal conference of several Sena-
tors was held today, at which Fessenden,
Bigler, Pearce, Pugh and others were pres
ent. They seem to favor the extension of
the Missouri line to the Pacific as a basis of
compromise, as an amendment to the
Constitution to meet the difficulty interposed
by the decision of the Supreme Court.
Secretary Cobb has had repeated inter
views with Mr. Hunter and finds himself
unable to extricate the Treasury from its
present bankrupt condition consequently
he proposes to resign at once.
Mr.. Hunter will have to resign his posi-
ton as chairman of the finance committee
in the Senate. Both are Southerners and
Secessionists.
Mr.. Holt, the Post Master General, it is
said, will succeed Mr.. Cobb as Secretary Of
the Treasury, and Fessenden succeeds
Hunter.
The caucus which was held last evening
at Browns Hotel was composed exclusively

meeting will be held Tomorrow.
