Resignation of Gen. Cas-.

The reported resignation. of Gen.
Cass is confirmed. He has refused to
remain connected with an Administra-
ton which has given so many proofs
of its disloyalty to, the Union, if mot
open encouragement to those who have
conspired to destroy it. In taking this
prompt and decided means to vindicate
his own character, and to rebuke the
spirit of treason which controls the
Cabinet, Gen. Cass has done honor to
himself and his State, and given the
country the strongest possible evidence
of his patriotism. The step is one that
will meet the cordial approval of every
right-minded citizen of Michigan, Of
whatever party, and that will give him
a stronger hold upon the confidence
and respect of her people than almost
any actIof his life. vnes 8ixiaE s. 30

MANUFACTURING STATES BY w HOLE
sALE.-Mr Shearman, Of Ohio, offered
a sweeping proposition in Congress the
other day to settle the slavery question
in the Territories, and thus remove it
from the politics of the country. q IS
He proposes to admit all the existing
organized Territories as States into the
Union, embracing Kansas, Nebraska,
Arizona, Utah, New Mexico, Docotah
and Washington, at one fell swoop, by
a single act of Congress. '7- 20. ss'a1
BY admitting these Territories as
States, the question of slavery would
be confined to the people Of those
States directly interested. and thus to
be kept out of Congress and out of the
national politics. M - ail.Iss
Mr.. Shearman offers the proposition,
not as a compromise, but as measure
of paciication. IS

secretary Cobb,s Resignatiou.

ry, after squandering $23, 900, 900 which
he found in the Treasury, subject to
draft, running the nation in debt more
than $50, 200, 900, and seriously reduc-
ing the value of United States stocks,
which were above par when he accep-
ted the position I; in short when he
finds the Treasury worse than bankrupt
and being party to a Southern scheme
of treason and rebellion, feels called
upon to resign his position as Secreta
ry of the Treasury. This he has done
and has gone home to Georgia, for the
purpose of inducing that State to with,
draw from the Union. eaD hr5lst
1t seems to us a little remarkable
that in a time of peace, and with nc
unusual demands for public expendi-
lures, the present Administration, which
on its advent to power found the Treas.
ury running over, should manage to
keep the exchequer empty, and be
obliged to borrow millions of dollars
every year to help it out of embarrass
ment. Never until the present Execu
tive, with his army of hungry Southern
officials, got possession of the Treasury,
has such state Of things been known
