Ma. MONTGOMERY BLAIR has resigned his
scat in the Cabinet as Postmaster-Ceneral. Mr..
Blair, it seems, accepted as applicable TO him
self, that Resolution passed by tho Baltimore
Convention which declared, that those only
"were worthy of public confidence and official
trust who cordially indorse theprinciplcs propos-
cd in the series of Resolutions aud which should
characterize the administration Of tho Govern
ment," thercupon rendered his resignation
to tho President TO be used whenever
it should be O "reef" to him. Ihet
time, the President tells him. has now
come, and the resignation is accepted. Precisely
why Mr.. Lincoln thought this action called ior
at this moment rather than at any other urne
during the last four months, we arc not toiai
but we presume he deemed it best that the
country should have before November, some
evidence Of his desire to restore harmony TO tie
national councils and his determination that
tho administration Of affairs should DO in ac-
cordance with Tie great principles laid down IN
tho Platform Of tho Union party. Ex-GoyemoI
Denison, Of ONO, succeeds Mr.. Blair in office,
and Of his ability to discharge its duties there
is 10 question.
