The WASHINGTON special to the New
York Tribune says:
Tits reported, on good authority,
that Mr.. Stanton has resigned. This ia
not positively confirmed, but it ia
known that he has determined to leave
the Cabinet very soon. There is a re.
port afloat that the decision has been
assisted by violent collision between
The President and the Secretary, both
strong wiIed men. ~ which the latter

assured a Major General Yesterday tina,
the separation about tc take place was
only induced by IT," rrostra,ion Of Mr.
Stanton and b. his exhausting lahors.
Mr.. Stanton has been offered the pos,
ton Ct Minister TO Berlin, but the place
II not deemed Of sufficient importance.
II his resignation be not already in the
Presidents hands, it will be shortly.
"Mr. Harrington, Assistant Secretary
Of the Treasury has resigned, peremp
torily, and will 60 as Minister Resident
to Berne, in place Of Mr.. Fogg. III
has engaged passage and will sail BY
the l>t OF July. 1t is also rnmored
that Mr.. Field. another Assistant, is
willing to accept some position abroad
1.-The difference Of opinion existing
between Secretary Harlan and Mr..
Usher, his predecessor, is very con
siderable. and is assuming a serious
form. The new Secretary is examining
in very impartial manner, the huge
contracts which the retired officer
signed inst before leaving, and is de.
handing that they be re established on
the principles Of equity and honesty.
Against this rough criticism, Nj. Usher
protests in behalf of his clients, making
the fight, it is understood, before the
President. The Interior Department,
consequently, ls considerably agitated
inst now. As one result Of the com
plication, Judge Otto, Assistant Secre
tary, is leaving the Department, and
John Wilson, now Third Auditor, will
succeed him."

upon ANY person, for crime committed
nrAinst the United States can lie com.
mut-d or pArdoned only by the Presi.
dent. In him and him alone rests all
this power. The Object Of the law in
creating this power is tho extension Of

panied with MANY mitigating circum
stances, but which the rigors Of the law
would not consider, o, that they were
