Secretary of War.
WASHINGTON, July, l9 The Worlds spec
says 1t is reported in official circles and be-
ieved that Stanton has resigned his position
of as Secretary of War. The immediate cause
OF the resignation grew out of quarrel which
grew out Of an attack by the rebels on that
city Blair charging incompctency and cow
ardice upon Stanton and Halleck for their
management during the raid. Among the
candidates mentioned tosucceed Stanton are
Senator John Sherman and General Schenck.
The burning Of Postmaster Blair's honse by
rebels has led to other beside cabinet compl-
cations. In his anger the Postmaster was
loud in denunciation OF want of capacity and
vigor shown in the defenses OF Washington.
He was so abusive in his remarks. which
pointed 30 directly to Halleck, that that Off
Ger drew up remonstance to the President,
and demanded an investigation of his CON
duct. He also insisted that Bais should not
be retained among the councillors of the Pres
ident, in case the charges proved to be un.
founded
Nothing strictly definite is known as to tho
financial course to be adopted by the Secreta
ry Of the Treasury, but it seems to be the
general impression in Washington that be
will advertise for a popular loan, bearing
Z BIO currency interest, or per cent gold
interest.
Although efforts have been made 10 recon,
slider the result of the Secretary action with
the bankers, they have not succeeded, and
all negotiations have ceased.

SINGULAR INCIDENT IN A MAD

Some years since an incident occurred
in the Boston Lunatic Hospital,i of very
peculiar character. 81 A mother and daugh-
ter both became inmates, and were placed
in the same story of the building, where
they had access to the same hall. They
met and recognized each other, though
one had left the other years ago in Ire
land. Both had crossed the ocean, be-
come residents here, and lest all knowl-
edge of each Others history of fate, both
became bereft of reason, and came upon
the public forsupport, and in madahouse,
surrounded by those who were hopelessly
insane, the child and parent met; though
reason was dsthroned, and each was there
with ..mind diseased" yet nature tri-
umphed over the clouded intellect, and
for brief moment the parties talked Of
the land of their birth, and when they

Republican, TERMS for Adj
Initting the Seeded States
Back,

The Lower House of Congress has pass
ed bin providing Tor military &c, gov
ernment tor the seeded states. as a pre-
cedent to the establishment Of civil au-
t o.ity therein All the border state men
voted with the Democrats against the bill.
Governor Boutwell, closed the debate on.
the bill in one oil the most radical speeches
ever delivered in the House. He took
bold ground even against the reconstruc-
ton or readmission of some of the South :
ern States with their present names in the
Union and at the same time declared that
the pending bill should elevate all the
slave population OF the Soth to political.
military and social equality with white
people That, omissiol, he said, was the
great objection to the bill; but the rapid
march of events would soon overcome it.
He clearly intimsted that this denial of
suffrage to negroes would justify their
revolutionizing. His main argument was
on Mr. Stevens's ground, thatthe insur-
gent states are not in the Union, and that
the power over them by the general gov
ernment was of territorial character.
The following provisions are to be in
corporated in the new state constitu-
tions: M
First No person who has held or exer-
cised any office either civil or military,
state or confederate, except the Office be
merely municipal, or military below the
gre de ofcolonel, under the usurping pow
er, shall have the right to vote for er be
a member Of legislature or governor
Second. Involuntary servitude is for
ever prohibited, and the freedom of ali
persons is guaranteed in the said state,
Third No debt, state or confederate
created by or under the sanction OF the
usurping power, shall be recognized o.
paid by the state. 8isss
The bill further provides that every
person who shall hereafter hold or exer
else any Office civil or military in th'
rebel service, state or confederate, excep
the Office be merely municipal or militar.
below the grade of colonel, is declared mo-
to be citizen of the United States.
The bill has yet to be acted upon BY
the Senate. ,. s5a4 8fsf az

General Grant has lost his right-hand
man-the General whom, by the votes of

Potomac, by the affectionate admiration
of every officer of that army, and by gen
eral consent of the whole country, he
could least afford to lcse--gallant, brave,
noble JOHN SEDGwIcK The very JOY
of victory is dulled by the knowledge
that his life is part of the price of vic
tory. He was the very prince of good
soldiers master in the art of war; the
one man to whose indomitable and stead
fast courage the most difficult positions
and duties were intrusted, with complete
assurance that by human power and skill
they could not be oyermatched-the one
soldier whom his commander knew to be
invincible.
Twice was offered to him and twice he
declined the chief command of the Army
of the Potomac, avowing that to one Gen.
Eeral in all the land was chiefly due that
high honor. Twice, and more than twice,
it has fallen to his lot, in the subordinate
command which he persisted in holding
to save the Army of the Potomac and
snatch from the enemy's grasp its bloody
laurels. Had any other man than he
held the right on Thursday and Friday,
the result of, those terrific battles might
have been other than it was. The Sixth
corps which he led he had made the
crack corps of our best army, and in the
battles of the Wilderness, as in the bat

fsuperb, displaying the qualities which
