The Presidents Cabinet.

Since Saturday last rumors have been rife in
relation to designations of members of the Presi-
dents Cabinet, but there is nothing authentic
beyond the confirmation fthe previous announce
ment that Mr.. Dennison, the Postmaster General
had resigned On Saturday the President nomi-
mated to the Senate the Hon. A. w. Randall now
First Assistant Postmaster General, to be the
successor of Mr.. Dennison. In some sources il is
positively asserted that Secretary Harlan and At
torney General Speed have prepared letters OF
resignation, but there is nothing to show that
they have reached the bands of the President
Another report alleges that Secretary Stanton
has also prepared letter of resignation. The
following is Mr.. Dennison's letter of resignation
and the reply Of the President in accepting it:
Washington, ID. c.. July IL, 1sG6.-Sir, ]
have the honor to tender you herewith my resig-
nation of the Office of Postmaster General, to take
effect upon your notifying me of its acceptance.
In thus Withdrawing from your cabinet, it is
proper to say that do so chiefly because of the
difference of opinion between us in regard to the
proposed amendment of the constitution, which
approve, and the movement for the convention
to be held at Philadelphia on the l4th proximo,
to which am opposed. My confidence in the
patriotism of the Union republican party, and
conviction that upon its permanent control ofthe
government depend in large measure the peace
and happiness of the country, will not permit of
my holding any equivocal attitude in respect to
it.
Assuring you of my personal regard and ap-
probation of the uniform courtesy have received
from you,
am very respectfully yours, &c,
W.DENNIsoS.

FOolery in the Pulpit.

A correspondent of Boston paper relates the
following
IA gentleman dropped into one of our city
churches, one day last week, to hear q noted re-
vivalist, and being mere outsider, he modestly
took a retired seat in the gallery. At the close
of the sermon, which was from the text 'Let
me die the death of the righteous, and let my last
end be like his" the preacher requested 'fall
those present who would like to die the death Of
the righteous to stand up" The gentleman in
the gallery feeling that he was only 'looker
on" retained his seat, but he speedily found he
should have risen with the rest, for the preacher,
after all were again seated, threw w:thering
glance into the gallery, accompanied with the
remark "The number of those who did not rise
is so small that / shall not take advantage Of
them" Moreover, somebody in his immediate
vicinity audibly whispered, "Why, here, in our
very midst, is a man who doesn't want to die the
death of the righteous l'' And again, as the
gentleman was trying to escape unobseryed down
the stairway, he overheard one Of the sisters say
to another, land in no undertone either, ''Sakes
alive if that isn't the poor critter who is against
dying the death of the righteous"

An Army OF 900 Men,

The proposition Of the Republican lead.
ers in Congress, to saddle upon the country
an enormous regular army of $1,000 men,
with an immense number Of generals and
general staff officers, is monstrous. The
erection Of such an army is opposed to all
the past traditions Of the country. In every
age, regular armies have been the instru.
mcnts oftyranny and the enemies of repub.
lican liberty. Our revolutionary ancestors
and their descendants to the present time
would never have more than the skeleton
OF one. 1t is an outrageous imposition up
on the already too heavily -burdened tax
payers ofthe country.
Ten thousand men is more than the coun.
try needs to garrison the forts and watch
the Indian frontiers, and it will be criminal
if it is kept above that standard. The real
and only pressure for the bill is from men
who desire to billet themselves upon the
public treasury, as officers Of this great peace
Every honest man in Congress will op-
pose the personal and selfish schemes of
these men, by voting for small army
