directed TO the parties aforesaid witlrany other relief
that the Court may deem proper Judge Sharkey
remarked that the bill had been printed. Attor-
ncy-General Stansbeuy said he believed that 1t

The Court to file a bill. This bill was against the
United States and he desired to appear a the earliest
possible moment to object 10 IT, lie repeated there
nust he motion TO file the bin in the regular way.
Judge Sharkoy replied that that was the motion
which he now made. lie was aware OF the magni-
tndc of the subject involving it did the important
aud delicate question of the COnstitutOnaty OF Con
,ressional legislation. IL was of great moment that
AN early decision should he arrived at as innch mis-

tion day.o Attorney General Stansbeny-'l am

Chief Justice" We do not propose to hear argn-
ment on the motion ont of the regular order The
motion will be fled Judge Sharkey-" will now
file the application This he did, and the question

II is rnmored here in prominent Republican circles
that the whole movement is merely dodge on the
part of johnson and his supporters to create pubic
sentiment in their favor. Messrs. Sharkey, Walker
and Parsons are looked upon as sound Johnson men,
and are considered as not inferior tn either Mr. STAINS
berry or Mr. Reyerdy johnson lawyers especially IN
a ease so simple the one they pretend to believe IN
As Stnsberry said to-day, when before the Court he
intended opposing the matter with all the means IN ms
power il is considered as certain that the Court viii
decide against Messrs Sharkey and Walker, and that
Mr.. Jolmsons friends will make big flourish and a
great hur1ah over the Presidents sacrifices TO his
country in carrying ont the laws which he opposed
when being made, and which he still believes TO be
unconstitutional and wrong. He will he trumpeted
as a model martyr for the sake of peace and union
against Radical fanatcism and diSuniOn and thus
second point TO the Connecticut election Will he
made in favor of the johnson Presidential party
of 1868,
The President to-day sent in the name of Gen. 4.
l.. Andrews as United States Marshal for MasSachu-
sets Ii was currently rumOed here that the vote by
which Gen Wass was rejected for the same position
would be recousidered, but new nomination having
been made no further action on Nass VIII be taken
Gen Rousseau was today confirmed by the Senate as
Brigadier General in the Regular Army by a majority
Of three votes 1t is rumored here tonight that the
Senate will reconsider its vote and finally reject him.
The following is one of many petitions which oper-
ated in this confirmation: -- "a .... --

In case of Gen Rousseaus final rejection, the friends
of Gen Scles are confident of his chances % ont of
the 81 members of the New-York delegation I'm the
House have signed a request for his appointment
The President, to-day, nominated Mr.. Thomas as
e Collector and Mr.. o. Callahan Assessor of the
Ninth Fernando Woods District of New-York.
They will both be rejected. The Senate Committee
on Foreign Affairs, to-day, Instructed their Chairman
to report adversely the nomination OF ex-senator
Nesmith as Minister TO Austria. The Senate sus-
tanned the action of the Committee, and he was re-
iected The causes which operated in his rejection
are many, but lle mOle II tlldt many
Of the Senators declare there is vacancy and it is
their purpose against any nomination for that
mission thus assuring the position to Mr.. Motley
have positive knowledge. Notwithstanding the
denials of newspapers that Secretary Seward not
only promised the appointment to ex-senator Foster
but absolutely sent his to the President The
latter followed his own inclinations.
IL is generally understood that the Senate viii
reconsider the appointment of Rousseau. One
Senator opposed TO him voted with the majority for
the purpose Of being enabled to move reconsidera
ti0n In he is finally rejected il is probable that
either Gen. Sickes or Gen. Robinson will receive the
appointment
Congressman Barnes left for New-YoTk tonight
there being no prospect of early settlement of the
difficulties attending the Brooklyn appointments.
Senators Morgan and COnkng seem determined
hat no one shall be confirmed by the Senate
for either of the three vacant offices
in Brooklyn unless he shall before receiving his APP
pointuent, have their recommendations. Congress
man Robinson representing the lid District, com
prising the most of Brooklyn, claims right to have
"A say in all these Offices while Congressman Barnes
who represents the I'D District. which comprises
several wards of Brooklyn, claims that he shall
be heard in the appointment Of Postmaster as it
belongs to the whole city, and not merely 70 Robin
sons District. Then Secretary McCullOeh has TO be
consulted in regard to nominations for Internal Rev
cIIue Offices and he has candidate of his own for
the Assessorship Neither of the New-YOrk Senator's
or Robinson, or Barnes, will recommend McCullochs
candidate and. in return, McCullocb is opposed 20
ali other candidates. Morgan and Conkllng act to-
gether while Barnes and Robinson at logger
heads with themselves with Morgan and COnkiing
and with Secretary McCuOch Thus the matter
