NEW York, June 5
A special to the Tribune from Washing
ton, 4th, says
1t is reported on good authority tonight,
that Mr.. Stanton has resigned This is
not positively confirmed, but it is known
that he has determined TO leave the cabinet
very soon. There is a report afoat that the
decision has been assisted By violent col
lision between the President and the Secre-
tary, both strong willed men, in which the
latter INDUCED in his brusque manners, and
the former took occasion to inform him that
he, ANDY was President of the United
States But it is said that there is not much
in this, for the President assured Major
General yesterday that the separation about
to take place was only induced by the pros
tration of Mr. Stanton, and by his exhaus-
ting laboIs.
Mr.. Stanton has been offered the position
of Minister to Berlin, but the place is not
deemed of sufficient importance. If his
resignation be not already in the President S
hands, it viii be shortly.
Mr.. Harrington, Assistant Secretary OF
the Treasury, has resigned peremptorily, and
viii 90 as Minister Resident to Berlin; in
place of Mr. Fagg. He has engaged pas
sage, and viii sail by the first of July
T. hat Nv Hold opnkb-
er assistant, is willing to accept some posi-
tion abroad.
The difference of opinion existing between
Secretary Harlan and Mr. Usher, his prede-
cessor, is very considerable, and is assuming
a serious form. The new Secretary is ex-
anining, In very impartial manner, the
huge contracts which the retired officer
signed Just before leaving, and is demanding
that they be re-established on the principles
of equity and honesty. Against this rough
criticism Mr.. Usher protests, in behalf of
his clients, making fight. it is understood,
before the President. The Interior Depart
ment consequently is considerably rufiled just
now As one result of the complication,
Judge Otto, Assistant Secretary, Is leaving
the Department. John Wilson, now Third
Auditor will succeed him.
