WHY cox RESIGNED.

Various explanations have been made
of the unexpected resignation of General
Cox. Secretary of the Interior. His
friends have put forth theory, generally
accepted, that he was opposed to assess
ing the department clerks to carry on
the Radical campaign, and that Grant
requested him to resign. This sounds
plausible perhaps, but it should be re-
membered that no man that scrupulors
could long be connected with the Radi-
cal party. The best explanation was
merely alluded to in one Of this morn
iag's dispatches. 1t is briefly as follows:
Onc McGarrahan claims a valuable tract
Of land in California, which is worked
BY rjch squatier company, known as
the New Idea Quicksilver Mining Com
pany. The property is worth over six
millions Of dollars, and the contestants
have waged bitter war for several
years: money has been Used freely on
both sides, and doubtless corruption.
McGarrahan seems to have more law
than money on his side Lincoln
awarded the property after it had been
decided in his favor By all the courts.
but the Nev idea Company prevented

him from receiving patent from the
Land Office. The case went into the
Fortieth Congress, where every other
man had his price, and had to be paid
II went through the House but failed IN
the Senate to vest the title in McGarra-
han, nor has the case yet been decided.
Cox agreed to let it alone until acted
upon by the next Congress, but in the
absence of President Grant at Long
Branch last summer. it is charged,
saw good thing, and determined to
order patent issued to the New Idea
Company. He destroyed title discov-
cred in the land Office, issued in 1868,
which gave the land to McGarrahan.
After processes and contemporaries in
the courts, Grant finally ordered Cox to
discontinue all further action in the mat
ter, and leave it to Congress. Cox re-
signed, and that is the best history of his
immaculate honesty we have seen. He
was in Grants way; Grant was in his
way. Both were doubtless playing for a
rich stake, but Cox run short of cards
and threw up the sponge.

The New Radical Crusade-EnfoEes
Ing the Fourteenth Amendment.

We have elsewhere noticed the kadl-
cal programme 10 arrest the proceedings
of the Supreme Court. We copy the fol.
lowing from the Knoxville Chsapieis Of
Sunday,
We are informed that on yesterday
proceedings were insulated in the United
States Circuit Court for this district
against the Hon. A. o. p. Nicholson,
Chief Justice, aud Thomas A. r. Nelson
and ]. L. #. Sneed, Judges Of the Sn-
preme Court OF the State, and Hon, Jos,
b. Heiskell, Attorney General and Re
porter, by Z. c. Camp, Esq, the District
Attorney.
The proceedings are in the nature OF
writs qhO icdrrdntO, and in substance re-
cite that the said Judges and Attorney
General are nov, and have been Tor
some days, exercising the duties, powers
and privileges Of Judges Of the Supreme
Court Of the State, determining causes,
prescribing rules OF practice and doing
other duties incumbent upon such OH
GERS, and that they hold such Offices ~
violation of the third section Of the
amendment 10 the Constitution OF the
United States. The infofmatioas fuf-
Their recite that each Of said parties prior
to 1861 held Offices of honor and trust
under the Constitution Of the
United States, and assuming them
took oatbs 10 support the same,
and that afteFward they each
did engage in instruction and rebellion,
and gave aid and comfort to the same
Wherefore, tho information prays that
said parties may appear before the
Judges OF said Circuit Court 81 Knox
Vile on the second Monday Of Jannqpy
next. and answer and show by what var
rant they claim 10 baye, ase or enjoy
the Office Aforesaid, and pray Judgment
for their removal ffOm said Offices
The news that these proceedings had
been instituted spread rapidly. aud
caused much discussion and comment
among the bar and citizens.
1t Is probable that in view Of these
proceedings the court will adjourn and
await the action Of the United States

New York, October 26.-No intelli-
gence has yet been received of the ar
rival in European waters of the corvette
Shenandoah, commanded by Capt. Clark
II. Wells, which sailed from Boston on
the I'd or Sd of September. She is now
over fifty days out, and making an UNI
usually long passage to the eastward for
this season of the year.
Col Whitsley, chief secret detective
of the Treasury department, has received
telegram from New Orleans, in which
one of his chief detectives informs him
that he has at length discovered in New
Orleans, and broken up, one of the
largest and most notorious gangs Of
counterfeiters that have so long infested
the South. In tho headquarters of the
gang we're found sets of dies and swedges
for gold coin, and large press with all
the appurtenances for printing counter
felt paper money Three of the gang
we're caught in the very act of using the
dies. Five of them made their escape
by Jumping from the back window into
the Mississippi river and swimming
across to Algiers. Harris, the chief of
the gang, was secured after making a
desperate resistance. Large quantities
Of gold and silver, used for making shells
for counterfeit coin, we're found by the
chief detective in searching through the
building, hut the most valuable capture
ia that Of the dies, which, in material,
workmanship and finish, are pronounced
equal to the hest ever made.
