TME SECRETARY Of TIE TREASURY.

During temporary suspension OF busi-
ness in the House OF Representatives yes
terday, Mr.. Foote called attention TO bis
resolution, introduced some days ago and
referred to tho Judiciary Committee, rela
tive to the Secretary of the Treasury, and
said that it was not his design to press the
matter further if the gentleman from Lou
isiana (Mr. Conrad) would make statement
to the House in reference to certain dccla
ration made by that officer. Mr. Conrad re
Piled that white he was not authorized to
| make any statement to the House, and .spe-
ciaiiy under a threat, he would say that Mr.
Memminger had remarked to him in usual
conversation, long before the introduction
Of the resolution, that it was his intention
to resign at the close Of the present session
OF Congress-. MIR. Foote rtjOined that il
was understood that Mr.. Memminger had
very recently made a similar declaration Il
Senator Orr, Of South Carolina, and to thu
chairman OF the Judiciary Committee.
This Congressional episode goes very fal
towards sustaining report which has Oecr
for some time in circulation respecting the
intentions Of the Secretary of the Treasury
The only name that VIC have heard men,
toned in connecti IN with the succession to
the ollcc is that OF Judge Campbell, Of the
War Department.

When the rank OF Lieutenant General was
created by Congress, the title was conferred

narrowly escaped death by the bursting OF
