This is tli fetter of resignation which Mr. Brle forwarded t President Grant: Navy Dkpartxekt, Washington, D. C, JamstfL 169. To the President Mr: Owing to continued 111 health and the demands of my private business upon me, I regret that 1 am compelled to tender you my resignation as Secretary of the Navy. In doing so, permit me to express my thanks for ttoe uniform courtesy and kindness with which you have honored me during the brief period of our official Intercourse. With esuuest hopes and wishes for the -entire suc cess of your administration, 1 have the honor to be, very respectfully, yonr obedient servant, A. E. Borir, Secretary of the Navy. Kliort and Sweet. Exbcttivb Mansion, Washinoton, D. C, June !, 1M9. Hon. A. E. Horle, Secretary of the Navy: Mr Your note of this date, tendering your resigna tion s Secretary of the Navy, Is received and your resignation accepted. Very respectfully, V. S. Grant. Forcer on the Surface. After the commission of the new Secretary, Mr. Robeson, had been made out, he entered the Navy Headquarters. One of the drat to cross his path and tnvlte him In was none other than Admiral Porter. 4Paid the new Secretary: "I want It understood that yon are to remain here," said the new Secretary, addressing Admiral Porter. "That depends altogether upon the President," replied the modest Admiral. "Well," said Secretary Hobeson, with a knowing smile, "I think there will be no difficulty about that." Where the Hitch Wan. The HeraUVt correspondent gives this as his solu tlonof the "why and wherefore" of the resignation : It appears that Borle has been anxious for some time past to lay down the robes of onice. He was not over anxious to work himself, and It is whispered that while he was perfectly willing that Admiral Porter should run the department, he was not altogether pleased that the public press should give Porter the credit for it. Borle, though not regarded here as a man of much force or ability, was never theless considered a good fellow, and had made many friends. He was famous for his good dinners, the rare quality of his wines and cigars, both of which he imports for Iris own private use. "Fortune anil Fame when Leant Expected. The President, it seems, met Mr. Robeson, the new Secretary, for the first time at West Point during his recent visit there. At that time he was on the lookout for a new Secretary of the Navy, and took a fancy to Mr. Robeson. On Wednesday, a week ago. the President wrote to Mr. Robeson, offer ing him Borte's plaoe. Mr. Robeson took a week to consider the matter, and finally signified his accept ance in a letter received by the President last Wed nesday. The new Secretary Is the best looking man In the Cabinet. lie Is quite large, with a florid com plexion, aud about forty-five years of age. Up to the time of his appointment he was Attorney-General of New Jersey, and is said to be a lawyer of con siderable ability. Some Questions Settled. The correspondent adds: Among the rumors afloat is one to the effect that Boutwell and Hoar will be the next to go. People who pretend to know all about It look Intensely wise and predict that George 8. Boutwell will not be at the head of the Treasury two months hence, and that, Indeed, his successor has already been agreed upon. So far as vour correspondent can make out. however, there is no ground for this rumor as affect ing Boutwell, though there does seem to he some reason for the belief that Hoar will not remain much longer In the Cabinet. Boutwell and Fish are, per haps, the two members of the Cabinet, next to Raw lins, strongest lu me esteem oi resident urant, ana therefore It seems highly Improbable that Boutwell will go out. Probably Improbable. The change has a greater effect on the Pennsylva nlans than upon other folks. They are in a great rage at losing their representation in the Cabinet. The idea that a great State like Pennsylvania should be kept out and a little potato-patch like New Jer sey awarded a Cabinet officer seems to them utterly preposterous. They admit that they were not satis fied with Borle, but they blame the President for not selecting another and more popular man from that State. The Pennsylvania politicians say the effect of this Cabinet change will be .in out disastrous upon the approaching Gubernatorial election in ineir mate, f.ven ine most: sanguine begin to entertain doubts of the ability of the radi cals to carry the State, which at the best is expected to be very 'dose. The Republicans say the people of Pennsylvania will regard the action of the President in not selecting a successor to Borle from the old Keystone as a snub. It will cool the ardo of the Republicans, while it will give courage to the Demo crats. Altogether, Pennsylvania Is decidedly dis gusted with Grant, Borie, and herself. FOREIGN NEWS. The Comment of Soudan. The London Army and Xacy Gazette informs its readers that Sir S. Baker Pasha's force for the con quest of the Soudan will consist of two regiments oi infantry, eacn euu strong, one regiment oi irregu lars 600 strong, two regiments of cavalry each 450 strong, two light batteries and one heavy battory--Inall a force of some BHOO men. The country Is dif ficult, the climate very damp and feverish. There is no opposition to be apprehended In the field, but It will be Interesting to Bee how Baker Pasha, who Is not a soldier, handles his little army. He has power of life and death In his command. We hope he has power to watch over ills own life and his health. Extraordinary Confession. An extraordinary confession of murder is reported to have been recently mado in the neighborhood of iiuu, Kngiand. Tnirty-inree years ago an om woman named Lister disappeared very mysteriously from Stockton-on-Tees, and some months afterwards her dead body was discovered In a hedge. Her only son, who bore a bad character, was suspected of having murdered his mother, the suspicion arising mainly from the circumstance that on the morning before her disappearance the old woman said her sou was pursuing her to murder her aud to rob her of two pounds. At the coroner's Inquest au open verdict was returned, the Jury inclining to the opinion that the deceased had committed suicide, from the fact that a razor was found lying beside the body. The son died a few days, ago at Hull, and, conscience stricken, he confessed on his death-bed that thirty three years ago he murdered his mother In a planta tion at Klton, near Stockton-on-Tees. Blighted AflectloiiH. Twenty shillings worth of consolation was recently adjudged to a candidate for matrimony in Scotland, for blighted hopes, wasted affectum, etc. A woman named Mitchell, belonging to the parish of Leslie, sued William oldiuau, a tailor, in Kyvle, Aberdeenshire, for twelve pounds of damages In consequence of defender having engaged to marry pursui r, anil failed to do so. Oldmau Is over 70 years of age;blB would-be wife between 40 and 60. Before going Into the merits, the Sheriff gave defender a last chance of closing the case by taking the lacy. "Are you quite sure.yon won't have her yet. old gentleman?" The "old gentlemax" de clined the offer, and the Sheriff found for the pursuer. Bethought, however, twenty shillings would cover all the lobs she had sustained. The International Hare. The Pall Hall dinette thus speaks of the approach ing rowing match between the boat clubs of Har vard and Cambridge: The Harvard boating men are doing their best to prepare for the contests to' which they have invited Oxford and Cambridge. They are not accustomed to row with a coxswain, but they are practising al most dally with what they call their "deadweight," and the crew are all picked men. The captain, Mr. Lorlug. Is said to be the best man of his time at an oar. There are to be several spare hands brought over, in case any of the chosen crew fall In. Two of these reserves are close upon six feet lu height, and muscular lu proportion. The race will excite great Interest in the t'ntted States, and at Harvard much anxiety is felt that Oxford should send its best representatives, so that it may not be said hereafter, "If we had put so-and-so in the boat we could have beaten you." The London Rowing Club are pre pared to treat their transatlantic friends with great hospitality, and they may safely calculate ou receiv ing equally kind treatment wherever they go. It Is only to be hoped that the experiences of the last match between Oxford and Cambridge will not be forgotten, and that by some means or other the U'uwbosti wt'J fc?

At 18-80 o'clock yesterday the single report of a pistol resounded on Deadnrlck street. Our reporter left the sanctum immediately to ascertain the cause, and found crowds of people rushing through that thoroughfare on the same errand. A few persons had passed up the stairway leading to the editorial room of the .S'mfs Journal, over T. P. Wade's lock and key-titting establishment. Onr reporter fol lowed and discovered that a large crowd had already filled the room. A personal difficulty had occurred between Attorney-General Tuthlll and Colonel George E. Grisham, editor of the Mate Jour nal. They had been sepsrated and were now in the enstody-of Officers Iturke, Pflster, and Harrison Grisham asked what he (Tuthlll) had shot at him for when his back was turned. Tuthlll, with a very op probrious epithet, retorted that he (Grisham) should not call him a "squirt," and rushed at his antago nist with a black rule. This was taken from his pos session, and both were soon after taken out of the room Grisham to the police station, and Tuthlll to the office of Justice Brien. After they had reached the street however tielng on the opposite sides Tuthlll cried out, "Bring the over here." The difficulty originated from the following article, headed the "Sanitary Business," which appeared In the first Issue of the Journal: We understand that Tuthlll, the "Grate Little Skwlrt," who in at prewnt facetiously playing Attorney General for Judge John Hu. Smith in this city, made lue remark prior to the sale of the Wt ami lime that "that organ munt be looked after an a sanitary meaaure, and the nuisance abated." Very well ; It waa looked attor, at a cost of lo, IK 0. Hut whether they have succeeded in making aanititry improvements is to be decided by those who derire the benefit thereiroin. We have no doubt the lrraand CiniM was rather tough customer to Tuthlll and his kit at that ? articular time. But we now have another sanitary jib he Stitit Journal, for these itinerant vagabonds to remove this time, however, your sixteen thousand dollars will stand no more chance of aeoointilishing your nnfarinua purpose than a short tailod bovine in fly timo! Wade in, Tutnill, with your sanitary measures. We will assist you! Others of the same stripe have been seriously concerned for our welfare, and have expressed themselves rather freely. We will look after them in due course of human events! Of the difficulty the following Is COIX)NBL OKIHHAM'S STATEMENT. While I waa quietly sitting at my desk this morning, en gaged in my editorial duties, Tuthlll, the so-called Attorney-General of tbis district, entered my office, armed with a repeater, I being entirely unarmed and unaware of the presence of any foe, my back being towards the door, and attempted to assassinate me. Approaching me behind, he inquired whether I was responsible for the article which appeared in yesterday's Journal. I replied I was, and had a witness as to what he had said in regard to my paper. He then stepped back, drew his revolver and fired at me. I quickly knocked bis pistol down, and taught him, by a tew well-timed blows, that even asHaamnatinn could not always be successful. It was nndoubtedly a cold-blooded attempt at assassination, and as readily de feated at it waa wickedly conceived. There is in us no dis position to decline an honorable and fair settlement of personal differences. Our apprehension can only be aroused by those who would soruple at no method which would aecurn our destruction without danger to them selves. And we are equally ready to redress, by all proper a nd pacific means, any injury that it may be our misfor tune to do any one. But we shall ever hold it our boundea duty to punish, with becoming severity, any aggression that may be made npon our rights, come from what source itmay. OKORGK K. GRISHAM, Senior Editor Stale Journal. CAPTAIN TUTniI.L'8 STATEMENT oncerning the affair Is as follows. He says that on entering Colonel Grisham' room the latter was at his desk, with his back turned towards the door. Tuthlll went to the window, towards which Grisham was facing, put his foot therein and inquired of Grisham wr.y he had blackguarded him (Tuthlll) in his paper of the evening previous. He said further that he thought any citizen had a right to criticize public journals privately, without such expressions being arrayed in print, with personal and slanderous attacks. Grisham replied that he had a witness who would testify to the statement which had been made. Tuthlll did not deny having made use of the expres sion quoted, but remarked that Grisham' had no right to abuse him in the manner in which he had done. At this Grisham arose from his seat, and, facing Tuthlll, remarked that he (Grisham) was re sponsible there or anywhere for what he wrote. Tutnill then Baid, "Be responsible," stepped back, drew his pistol, and fired. Just at that time Grisham sprang upon him, and, it Is supposed, must have knocked the pistol down, the ball having penetrated the floor between Grlsham's feet. They clinched, and went to the floor, with Tuthlll on top, the latter dropping his revolver In the scuttle. 8. A. Bovel, assistant editor, who had beeu lying on a bed. awoke at thm time, and pulled Tuthlll off, and gave Grisham an opportunity to become the uppermost In the fight, of which he took ad vantage. Tuthlll endeavored to keep Grisham from striking, and in this attempt was scratched un derneath both eyes by Grimshaw's linger nails. Mr. Bovcl states that he was asleep, and did not awake until aroused by the report of the pistol. He was, therefore, unable to tell as to how the difficulty, originated. In order to prevent another difficulty General Thomas Smiley, without consultation with either party, swore out a peace warrant before Jus tice Matthews, late In the afternoon, against Tuthlll and Bovcl, the latter having made use of the expres sion that "any man who would act like Tuthlll in going into the private room as he hail done was nothing but a coward and midnight assassin, and I am responsible to Tutnill or any of his friends."

After an exchange of com pliments, one of the Chinese representatives made a speech, expressing the hope that the Government would double the subsidy of the China line, and run a semi-monthly steamer. He suggested that if Congress passes laws giving full protection to the Chinese, It would be the means of Inducing capitalists from China to Invest their money in this country. He complained of the unjust laws of California pre venting the Chinese from testifying In the courts, aud laying a special tax on Chinese miners, collect ing ta per neau irom eacn umnaman wno enters tne State.

Jacknon, Mie.,eor. Cincinnati Commercial. The time of the Military Commission to-day was wholly occupied lu receiving the testimony of Mr. John K. Verger, uncle of the prisoner, regarding the family difficulties of the accused. He was unreason ably violent, sometimes bloodthirsty, aud, as the de fense claim, crazy. His conduct for several years pust wus gone Into, and au eiiort was made to show that eccentricity, If not insanity, has marked the conduct of his family on the mule side for some generations. A few months since he made a lunge with his knife at his brother George, and was only defeated by being knocked down with a chair; for three or four years witness had believed, and at times hud said, that he was crazy; did not think his conduct was due to llqu.'ir, though drink augmented his distemper; on tho morning of Colonel Crane's death accused returned irom Memphis at 1 o'clock A. M. ; Bent for witness at 6 o'clock; did not think he bad slept at all; he seemed greatly excited at tiie indignity and insult to which his wife and family hud been subject in the seizure of the piano during his absence; witness did not ant'clpate any trouble, or he would have en deavored to prevent It Witness described the en counter between Yerger ami Colonel Crane as nar rated before by other witnesses. Endeavored to separate the parties; got his clothes all bloody: picked up the knife as Edward threw It down, all covered with blood; took it to his oillce and locked It up as it was until It should be called for; saw Colonel Crane striko Yerger, holding his light cane horizontally, breast high, and striking out at Yerger. On this point the testimony of the witness differed from all others who saw the scuille preceding the stabbing. On cross-examination the witness would not admit that the conduct of the accused resulted from drink, or that bis iusauity was due to delirium tremens. The accused has gone as a delegate to the Memphis Convention, but got up the meeting himself, and It was only attended by five or six persons; had once been In the State Legislature, aud was a delegate at large for the State at the Democratic Convention.

Lazo Skundrich. one of the most celebrated and for midable of the brigand chiefs, who was for eighteen years the terror of the "Military Frontier," Is now in the hands of the Austrian authorities. lie gave himself up to the troops in 1866, after stipulating that "neither himself nor his companions should be sentenced either to death or imprisonment for life." He wus then employed, on the principle of "set a thief to catch a thler," as leader of tho Austrian troops In their campaign against the brhxanda; nnri he proved so successful In his new career that In a short time the country was almost entirely cleared of the robber bunds. He was then tried In a civil court for his former otfmiseB, and was sentenced, t 'gether with his band, to eighteen years' hard labor. As soon, however, as it became known that he was lu prison, the brigands again began to show themselves, and their depredations have now be come so formidable that the Government has de cided to liberate Skundrich and employ hlin as bo fore, in the pursuit of his former comrades. The rail Mall Gazette says: "Can nothing be done to check the unaccountable mania of railway oltlclals for locking up passengers in carriages 1 Ou the Underground ltullway, for Instance, at Westmin ster Bridge, trains are constantly coming in with all the doors locked on the arrival side, and passengers are kept kicking and shouting for deliverance till a leisurely porter, with evident enjoyment of the sport, saunters along, releasing the angry captives as he goes. This la excellent fun, no doubt. Lite in an underground railway must be rather dull, and one would certainly not grudge any Innocent relaxation to beguile Its tediousness. But some amusement might surely be devised for the officials less trying to the temper of the public This plan for locking the carriages on the side at which people are required to get out is on a par with the Ingenious idea of the South Eastern Company, who have been prosecuting a gentleman fur 'unlawfully and willfully' neglecting to alight at a station at which the train, as was proved, never stopped. It Is quite clear that railway ofllclals are not to be trusted with keys, and It would be well If Parliament interdicted them from the use of such instruments altogether." LEGAL IWTELLltlEJICE. Court of Ouarter Messlons Judge T.iidlow. The trial of a Get man named Louis Goldschmidt, for keeping a disorderly house, engaged the atten tion of the Court this morning. The place complained of is No. 1839 Master street, is used as a lager beer saloon, and is In the centre of a row of pretty and highly respectable residences; and a number of per sons iiving there testified that the swearing, singing, and laughing of the drunken people who frequent there, rendered it unpleasant for any decent iamlly to have a home in the neighborhood.

The Judge delivered his decision, dismissing the exceptions and deciding according to the Master's report; Court of Common Plena Judue Ilrcwster. The usual Saturday lists snd Orphans' Court busi ness were transacted this morning. Judge Brewster gave the following judgments: Greaves vs. Gamble. Demurrer to a bill for spe cific performance. Demurrer overruled. K. Hermann vs. David Mayer. Certiorari to Alder man Dclaney. Judgment reversed. Duulap vs. Shepley, certiorari to Alderman Gib son. In this cose It was alleged that the alderman gave judgment without any evidence being heard before him. This record says that several witnesses were sworn, aud that proofs and allegations were heard. The defendant and his wife were allowed to be examined in support of the exceptions, ami no testimony was offered to contradict them. The Court therefore reversed the judgment Ogden vs. Dappy. Certiorari to Alderman Delany, In this motion three months notice to quit on the 25th of March, 1869, served on the 25th of December, 18C8, is held sufficient, and the Alderman's decision Is affirmed. W lster vs. Conrov. Certiorari. In this case the Court holds that a lease upon agreement that the tenant will vacate at anytime upon three mouths' notice, does not create a term, and is, on the con trary, a pure tenancy at will; aud that au alderman cannot legally act as agent for either of the suitors before him, he being liable to Indictment for au aggravated misdemeanor for so doing. I he judgment is reversed. FINANCE ANCO JlIIIKItCE. OfflCI OF THE KVENINO TjXEOHAPH,!

From the Herald, "The Money market to-day was more abnndantly supplied -with funds, but the increased activity la stocks kept the demand quite up to the usual degree. The general and prevailing rates during the earlier hours were seven per tuu gold on miscellaneous collaterals, and seven per cent currency on Govern ments. In fact, the rate on the latter class of securi ties has been generally at the legal flgnre, either ln gold or currency, throughout the monetary activity of the past few weeks. Seven per cent gold is equivalent to 9)4 per uent So that when later In the day, between two aud three o'clock, the period during which there is a larger Inquiry, the rate ad vanced to a thirty-second per diem, it was only a Might aggravation, 1-32 being about 11 per cent ' Just as 8 o'clock was striking, the demand was con- uiieuiuHomu two or inree narrower, wno yet lin gered on the sidewalk iu front of the Stock Ex change, and had to pay gold, interest The rate on call was, therefore, more uniform than it has beeu in a good while. It fluctuated neither to extreme figures on the one baud, nor to easy ones on the other. Commercial paper was quoted at 9$10 per cent for prime duuble-uume acceptances.

"Foreign exchange was steady until late in the afternoon, when, under a rather active demand for bills to lie remitted by to-morrow's steamers, the prime backers advanced their rates one-eighth per cent, a step iu which they were rendered more con Hdent by the fact that the afternoon quotation for bonds in London had declined to 80,i-80X. "The gold murket was In the main dull. The range in the price was from 137 to 137)4. The decline In Consols at Ixmdou, despite the lowering of the discount rate of the Bank of England, is significant of a rather apprehensive feeling la the Knglish money market it Is not easy to conjecture Its cause unless we start with the surmise that there is some thing really critical lu Freuch politics, the effect of which radiatcB from Paris to London.
