SecEetnry mcCOIIOchs
A rumOr is quite extensively circula-
ted in Washington that serious mis-
understanding exists between the Pres
ident aud the Secretary of the. Treasury
growing out of disregard by the lat
ter of instructions in reference 10 pro-
posed change in the management OF
the New York custom-hOuse. The
story, as given, is to the effect that
some dissatisfaction was expressed with
the management of the affairs of the
custom house, and Secretary McCul-
loch thereupOn decided upon change
in some of the officials. This fact be-
coming known, was communicated to
the President by certain interested
parties there, who desired to prevent
the change referred to. Secretary Nc
Cuiloch was instructed by the Presi-
dent to take no action with regard to
the matter for the present; but it is
said that despite this request he dis.
patched Telegram or letter to New
York about Wednesday, last, ordering
the change. The parties working
against the Secretary in this matter
gained an idea of what had been done,
and finally secured u copy of the tele-
gram or letter, which confirmed their
suspicious that the Presidents instruc-
tions had not been obeyed. The result
OF their investigation was communica-
ted to the president, who thereupon
sent for Secretary McCulloch, and had
quite lengthy interview with him,
during which it is understood that
there were mutual reproaches, the Sec
retary protesting agains the unneces-
sary interference, and the President
complaining of the disregard of his
instructions, and finally remarking,
terview is reported to have occurred on
Thursday or Friday, and the breach,
instead of having been healed; prom
ises to grow wider; indeed, it is ru-
Tnored in political circles that the Pres
ident has expressed a desire to get rid
of the offending Cabinet officer, and
will at an early day send to the Senate
the name of a prominent banker of
Cincinnati for the Secretaryship.

TheTynw Case.

NtNSoS
The statement that the decision OF
OF the Court in the case of Rev. Stephen
II. Tying, Jr., and the sentence, had
been served upon that gentleman, was
premature. A document from the
Court was sent TO Rev. Mr.. Tying, but
the sentence did not accompany it. 1t
was simply copy of the finding of
the Court in the case, which is very
formal, and was served upon the rev.
ersnd gentlemen at the same time that
the original was put into the hands of
Bishop Potter. We understand that
the Court at first stood three for sus
pension and two for admonition; that
they ad:several meetings to consider
the evidence in the case, and that ON
each occasion the two members in IA
vor OF admonition stood out for their
point and ultimately triumphed. Hence
It appears that the document recon-
mends admonitiOn as the only punish
DIent. The Court took the ground that
the disputed canon should not be inter-
preted by any disregard of 1t on the part
OF MIR. Tying and other members of the
Protestant Episcopal Church, and they
very distinctly pronounce the RESPONSE
bilitY OF the whole matter, SO far as the
recent trial was concerned, as belong
Ing to the reverned gentlemen who pre-
sented the case TO the Bishop of the
diocese. The next step in the case is
for the Bishop to pronounce the sem
tence in the presence OF several preaby-
ters, which sentence he may mitigate
bat not aggravate. As Hdmonition Is
the mildest form of punishment, there
Is no resort leftsfor the Bishop in the
case, unless he may choose to admins
ter the admonition in private, q course
which 1t Is thought would be far from
satisfactory to the members of the Pro-
testant Episcopal Church. who believe
in the faliibility OF the canon however
much they may insist upon strict ad-
herence to discipline.

POLICE CouRT.-We have neglected
TO notice the improvement introduced
10 the court room In which Judge Good
presides. In truth 1t was only made a
day or two since, and yesterday was
the first time we looked upon 1t. While
it Is all right and proper to be thankful
for small favors. we verify believe that

rendering thanks for. Sure we are

Business in the Police Court was Ter.

some cause there was moi case 10 try,
everybody we presume being on their
good behavior the day before, getting
ready for the picnic. We suppose the
same state of affairs will exist this
morning aA nearly every bodywas out OF
town yesterday. We woul d not intimate
that the material for police court bust.
ness comes from the parties that went TO
Cresap's Grove, but the fact OF such a
party being out enjoying themselves
made even those compelled To remain
ut home In the best possible humor, and
consequently we are this morning
without any fights or other dlsgraceful
proceedings TO chronicle.

BRIDGEPORT IMPRovEMESTs.-Dur.
ing no former season has an equal
spirit of improvement been manifested
by our neighbors in Bridgeport, as they
are now exhibiting. New buildings
are going up all over the vlllage-some
of them OF very substantial charac.
ter. Among others our attention was
called day or two since TO the fine
grain warehouse of Messrs. Smith &
Son, adjoining their Touring mill.
They have long felt the need Of just
such an establishment, and are now
prepared to take advantage OF oppor.
tunItieS to purchase largely OF wheat,
or corn, or any kind OF grain, at low
prices, and store 1t just where they
want TO use II. The building 10 said 10
be admirably adapted to the purpose
for which II was designed, and will
materially aid the firm In the transac.
ton OF their already large business.

TIE GREAT PIc-NI0.-Yesterday

and friends sought the steamboat land
Ing, to embark on board the steamers

river. The morning was all that could

The Express and Liberty No. 4, with
two barges, were soon filled 10 over

were cast on, and tho gay party left,

that lined the shore.
The run 10 the Grove wAA IA delightful
one. Tom Cocayne with his string
band was on board, and their services
were early called into requIsltion after
lehvIng the wharf. Music and dancing
were kept up during the trip down, and
on reHcbiDg the Grove the entire party,
old and young, gave itself UP to the on.
joyment OF the day. The number pres.

The plays usually introduced on such
occasions, were iuaugurated and con.

relish. The day having been one
OF exceeding pleasure, passed away
rapidly TO those who had enter

and when the signal for returning
