AT Jackson, Mississippi, the freedmen gene

WASHINGTON.
IMPORTANT RUMoRs.
INTENDED CABINET CHANGES.
Secretaries Stanton, Seward, and
Welles TO Retire.
Special to The Evening Telegraph.
WASHINGTON, Januar

WASHINGTON, January IL.
There have been floating rumors current here
for several days past, relative to important
changes which are to take place in the Cabinet.
These tales have this morning assumed def
mite shape, and if true, constitute the most vital
news we have had for some months. For their
Truth we do not vouch. Secretary Stanton,
whose intention has been known for some time
to resign his portfolio and retire into private life
as soon as the war had entirely ceased, has ten
dered his resignation. Secretary Seward, whose
conduct during the war has met with the highest
approval of the Administration, designs to leave
all official cares he returns from his sea
trip, unless the change of life entirely renovates
his health, which has been failing for some
months. While Secretary Welles' resignation,
sent in Immediately before the meeting of Con-
gress, will probably be assented to at the same
time that his colleagues retire. AS we foretold
two weeks ago, Mr.. Harlan will leave the Cabi-
net for the Senate, his views not being in har.
mony with those of the President. He will be
returned to the Senate from Iowa, the Legisla-
ture of which State elects Senator this session.
Hon. ]. r. Doohttle, of Wisconsin, will be his
successor.
Mr.. McOulloch, Secretary of the Treasury, will
undoubtedly be retained, no matter what Cabi
net changes may be made He is too valuable
to the nation to be lost. Mr. Denison, Post.
master General, will also remain, as he is a good
officer, and is among the Presidents most con-
fdential friends.
We send you all the rumors, but whether
founded in fact or fiction time will show.
KOOntz vs. COfTrOth.
The Committee on Elections are still consider
ing the case from the Sixteenth District of Penn
sylvania. Mr.. Koontz made an argument this
morning of an hours length. Mr.. Coffrotn
replied.
