SATAN AMONG THE URUILCIIES.
The Church militant has been upon the
rampage lately in various quarters of the
country to a very discreditable extent. In
stead of moving upon the devil and all his
works with that unanimity which should dis
tinguish soldiers in a common cause, the
leadera.of several of the divisions of the grand
army have attacked each other, and smote
one another hip and thigh in a manner that
is very shocking to Christian people, and
highly satisfactory, we should suppose, to the

slighteistjsra upon any subject, and least
of all upon the Organliation of the Cabinet.
The President undoubtedly desites to stand
by the broad priticiple of tegard to law, which
he so tid*itablY lent down in his inaugural
addresi, and we were, therefore, prepared for
the intelligence which comes, to-day, from
various sources, that Mr. Stewart will with
diaw what too many would be glad to eon
vert into a bone of contention, by , declining
the honor proffered him by the President.
--This course iq so obviously the simple and
natural way out of the difficulty that there is
a universal feeling, to-day, that it will be
adopted.
President Grant will have little difficulty in
choosing from New York a Secretary of the
Treasury. There are many gentlemen,in the
city and in the interior, thoroughly fitted to
carry out his policy of administration. That
policy demands, not so much extraordinary
abilities as a financier as it does the capacity
for a firm, bold, honest and economical exe
cution of the laws of Congress. The Repub
lican narty is rich in such men as are needed
foi such duty, and if Mr. Stewart retires from
the position, as he is expected to do, Presi
dent Grant know how to fill his place
with some other good and true man, who
will not only come within the requirements
of the law which debars Mr. Stewart, but will
carry out, as faithfully as he could possibly
have done, the requirements of all laws whose
execution devolves upon him.

Mayor Fox has very properly vetoed the
ordinance allowing the Germantown Passen
ger Railway Company to put salt on certain
portions of their txacks. .Now let him and
his police turn their attention to the Chestnut
and Walnut streets Railroad. This morning ,
at the corner of Sixteenth and Chestnut
streets, where there was a slight accumula
lation of ice and snow, salt had been placed
on the track, and the crossings were covered
with nasty, briny slush. A stout man, with
a pick, shovel and cart, could have cleared
the track in a few minutes. But the Com
pany, which is one of the richest and most
prosperous in the city, violated the laws and
had the track salted. They may have done
the same thing at other places, and they
ought to be tined for each offence.

Wasnutortme, March B.—ln a caucus of the Re
ptibllcan Senators, held this morning, it was an
nounced that Mr. A. T. Stewart had notified
President Grant that be must decline accepting
the appointment of Secretary of the Treainry, in
view of the fact that it would require the repea
of certain laws that he might accept, and the
!policy of this was doubted by many leading
lawyers.
This solves a very grave question, and wilt
effectually restore harmony In Republican circles.
Rumcr is current that Judge Hoar has declined.
or will decline, the position of Attorney-General,
and that Mr. Boutwell will now be tendered the
Treasury Department, and Lyman Tremane, of
New York, the Attorney-Ge.neralship. It is under
stood, however, that Stewart favors the. appoint
ment of David D. Wells to the place which he
declines.

WASHINGTON, March B.—The Senate Republi

that body.
The subject of the Secretaryship of the Trek
snry was mentioned in the caucus, but laid over,
it being understood that 'President Grant will
withdraw his recommendation for' a modification
of the Treasury Department law, in which case
Stewart will necessarily retire from the position.
A canvass shows that if brought to a vote Con
gress would overwhelmingly refuse to pass the
proposed measure of relief.
The report that the bill providing for the gran
of lands to the Denver Pacific. Railroad was no
signed by the President is a mistake. It Is now
a law.

Wasinworon, March 8.
Porwarx.—On motion of Mr. Morton, the read
ing of the journal was dispensed with.
3dr. Howe rose to a personal explanation, and
contradicted the statement which appeared in the
New York World of Saturday, that in the Execu
tive session for the consideration of Cabinet
nominations he (Mr. Howe) had asked: "Who
is Bork ?" and on being told that he wasPhila
delphian, had added resignedly, "Well let him
past; the League Island job will, of course,
be all the safer." The fact was
that he had not said this or anything else on that
occasion, and although beought perhaps to feel
grateful for the kindness of, newspaper corres
hondents, in' occasionally inserting speeches for
im, be could not be thankful for silly or in
sane ones like these, because he could make
enough of such himself. I Laughter.l
Cameron also denied that he had made the
remarks attributed to him in the same paper,
paper eulogizing Mr. Rorie, and said he was so
used to.being unjustly used by the newspapers
that he was never surprised at anything they
said about him, except when they happened, In
directly, to praise him.,
Mr. Ramsey introduced a bill to create an ad
ditional land district in Dacotah.
Mr. Tipton introduced a bill to grant the right
of way to the Midland and Pacific rtailroad Com
pany, and for other purposes.
Mr. Abbott introduced several bills for the re
lief'of individuals in North Carolina.
Mr. Conkling introduced a bill to prohibit
secret sales or purchases of gold or bonds on ac
count of the Government. Referred to the Com
mittee on Commerce.
Mr. Morton introduced a joint resolution re
quiring parties asking to be relieved from politi
cal disabilities to make application to Congress
I over their own signatures, setting forth the
ground on which they seek such relief. Laid on
the table.
Mr. Sherman introduced a bill supplementary
' to the not of 1864, to provide a National earn...Ley,
&c. Referred to Committee on Finance.
Mr. Cole introduced a bill to provide for the
better security of the lives of passengers on vessels
propelled by steam. Referred to Committee on
Commerce.
Mr. Sumner moved to proceed to the con
sideration of the,bill granti a nsion of 85,000
annually to Mrs. Lincol ng
n, w pension
of the late
President.
Mr. Edmundsthought the matter should go '
_ _
a committee. if hire. Lincoln was in anluence, v
he bud heard stated, then it would be manifestly
nnjui to single her fora pension to the exclusion
of other equally deserviog and more needy
widows. Bet if, on the contrary, she was in a
destitute condition and should have a pension,
that fact ponin be bestascertained by a committee.
Be therefore moved to refer the bill to the Com

man will occupy rooms in the War Department.
although his staff will occupy the present head
quarters of the army for the transaction of public
business. The doors of the Executive Mansion
are opened today, and crowds are strolling
through the east room and different parlors.
Many supposed there would be a general recep

able to shake bands with the President.
To-morrow being the regular day for Cabinet
meeting, there will be a formal organisation and
broiness will be actively commenced.
Various reports concerning resignations of
Cabinet members and the appointment of others
in their places are circulating, and the interest
manifested is very intense.

those made on Saturday. Captain J. P. Sanford
of the U. 8. Navy, has resigned.

are urgently pressing him for Secretary of the
Navy.

Mr. Sumner opposed the motion. lie had no
reason to suppose that the present committee
would deal With the bill more wisely than its
predeceesor bad done, and be saw nothing in the

mittee. He hoped, therefore, that the bill would
be voted on without a reference and without de
bate.

Arrival of Tinned States Troops at Key
Wert-The CiwOverrun with Cuban
Refugees-a Ball, and Singular Con
duct of the Cuban Ladles.
Kier , Wxtrr, Feb. 27.—The steamer De Soto,
Captain Eaton, arrived at Key West February
19, with two companies of the Third United
States artillery, Company B, Captain Warner;
Company D, Captain Webb. the regiment being
Under command of Gen. T. W. Sherman. Three
companies of the same regiment are stationed at
Fort Jefferson, Tortugas. They relieve the Fifth
artillery, which has been here (Key West) and at
Fort Jefferson for the last two roars.
The city of Key West is at present literally
overrun with. Cuban refugees, and every vessel,
steamer, yacht or smack ar riving from . Havana
is generally crowded with them. Their baggage
is variegated in Its quality;, for among trunks,
chairs, cots, cooking material, die., peeked into
every nook and corner of the vessel—more
generally the smacks—one will observe chickens
and cats, woo have all undoabtedly joined in the
stampede, fearing the wrath to come at the ex
piration of the amnesty proclamation. The
steamer. Alliance and the smack Montezuma
brought more than 120 passengers from . Havana
on the 17th. About fifty remained at Key West,
the remainder going to New Orlelns.
On the evening of the 25th the Cubans gave an
entertainment at the Russell House, to which the
guests were en mane invited. The Americans with
their ladies attended, dressed as if to be welcomed
to a royalf&e. The supper after the Spanish style
was peculiar, and yet—magnifique ! But during
the whole evening not a Spanish, or rather Cuban
lady was in attendance. All remained In their
rooms. Query. Complimentary to whom? To
the officers of the Peruvian fleet only !
I would here have it noticed that at Key West
we have at prisent four lines of steamers skipping
regularly. With the advantages of the telegraph
vessels from all parts of the world are putting in
at Key West to report—a convenience whieb, is
now indispensable.

Callender sworn—l am National Bank Examiner-
I bare examined the books of the Fourth
National Bank of
,Fhiladelptda; the , books,
to seine extent, are In handwriting
of the defendant; there are alterations
false entries and changes; in two or three in
stances false make which make $80,0 0 :84111. one
instance the sum of general debits' has been
changed from $1.60,000' to $186,000; there
is no preciie amount; I have not that:looks
Isidore'me; it Is nearly so; ,there. la. one

"$200,000 in round numbers, as it at present ap4
pears. The amount is subject to future verifies,
lion. I hive , made , every effort to find the true
amount, Int as yet it is impossible to do so, as
there may be credits and debits not yet kno wn.
Crostrexamined—This deficiency appears front
the adjustment of the bank affairs; everything in
the shape of legitimate losses is included; to
some extent this deficiency is made up of over
drafts, but then I have left out a • large
number because I had no evidence to
be certain that they were assets; if
these should prove to be bona fide
assets the deficiency would not be so large; what
ever amount is collected from overdrafts not al
ready mentioned as assets will reduce the defi
ciency that mucb; the first estimate that I made
has been reduced by . 84,600, recovered from an
overdraft not appeartng on the books at first; I am
not able to tell the amount of overdraft;
any amount recovered cif the assets of the Bank,
over and above what is now apparent, will re
duce the deficiency that much. I have not to
eluded anything se assets but what is apparent
on the books in tke actual possession of the
