%rretention of Supervising Architect
Mullett. Some of these reports state
that the President is disposed 10 inter
fere in the matter.
An lnter-Oceda correspondent, how
ever, telegraphs that these reports are
altogether erroneous. He says: 1.-THE
President Is taking no part in the mat
ter, but is leaving 1t entirely with the
| Secretary. and the understanding be-
tween the latter and Mulle.t is perfect;
that rs soon as a successor can be Sc
lscted by the Secretary Mullett is to
retire."
The same special says it is under
stood by the friends of Justice Swaiue
that he contemplatcs retiring from the
bench of the Supreme Court in a few
months, when. under the law, he can
rely on full pay. If Justice Swaine
concludes To retire, this will give to
General Grant another appointment to
tho supreme bench. making five in all
since he has occupied the executive
office.
A Tribune special says there is no
doubt that both the President and Sec
retarv of the Treasury, in their COM
municatiouS to Congress. will take a
very decided position with reference to

seems certain that they will recom-
mend Congress to fix by legislation an
early day for q coin resumption, and
that that day will be January LIST, 1876.
1t also seems probable that if such re-
commentators are sent to Congress,
the financial discussion and excitement
of last year car scarcely be avoided un-
less the committees shall decide to
avoid discussion by declining to report
back the financial measures.
