WAsHrNaTo@. Jaa. 2, 1871.
Another traucr has LEFT tho Cabinet jacob
Thompson, Secretary Of the Interior, has len.
dered Lis resignation to tho President, on the
ground that attez the order TO reinforce Anaer-
son was countanandel on the Stat u1t., thcrc
Was an understanding that no troops should
BE- sent South without the subject being con-
siIcrc1 ard decided IN Cabinet meeting. But
notwithstanding this alleged understanding,
5ccrctarJ-oc-Wa Holt, without the knowledge
Or permission Of Thompson, dispatched the
S!ar Of IL. HGs, with go marines aud ast'l-
lerizts, to reinforce Major Anderson, and that
the steamer was ncar!y at her destination be-
fore he learned the fact therefore he resigns.
He WAS not day too soon, Is the President
intended to dismiss him this very day. The
reason be was not allowed to know that rc-
in.utccmcnt Would ho or had been sent 10 Fort
Sumter, was because he was unworthy to
know 1t. He is not only i tral!or to the Union,
but e7y for tie rebels. Nothing could lie
done by the FrSiden. or any OF the Depart
ments bat he divu1sed 1t at once to the DISH
aion members Of Congress. In screral III
stances he te1eSza2hcl Cabinet secrcts to tI.o
Disrnion Governors In the Cotton States. Tic
kept the enemy carefully informed Of all that
Gen. Scott was doing, Of every step that Holt
took, Of everything that Stanton advised, of
every word Buchanan dropped. In other gov
eraments such traitor would larc been
promptly arrested aud summariiy executed for
his enormous crime.
Thus tho traitosous triumvira:c-Coah,
Floyd and Thonpson-ase gone from the Cab
met, and their places filled by Union rcn.
These three bad men have been the cause Of
tic decline mud fall Of the President They
welded an unlimited Influence over his mini.
lie WIS but plastic clay In the haads Of these
reasonable pottcrs. In this work Of ccceIs-
ton and betrayal, they were assisted by GSin,
Slldell and Davis. Between them they orcz-
powered his own Judgment aud rendered him
submissive to their schemes. All avenues fur
obtaining correct information as to the state
o. tic codn n were cut of, aud he was not ul-
lowed to hear the truth from any quarter. Du-
caanan has grown to be very old 1nau. &c
Is nearly Wogn out Ills brain has become dcs.-
