This was the algnal for a rush on the port of the crowd mat oou Dccn patiently waiting ouutae, and they quickly filled up the space outsido mo oar. a numuer were aumutea msiao the bar. District Attorney Carrington was in tho court room at the time, and Mr. Brad Icy, Jr., one of the counsel for tho prisoner, came in a moment afterwards. Mr. Bradley. Br., and Mr. Merrick subsequently entered the room, they having been sent for. . There was a decided commotion in the court room, nnd it was whiapcrod about, "The jury has agreed," "They are going to discharge the jury," they can't agree, and have . asked to le discharged," &o., &c..' " ! 1 v 1 At one o'clock the prisoner was brought into the court room and assigned the seat occupied by him during the trial beside his counsel, lie came into court smiting, and seemed to be in good spirits, as be chatted with bis counsel. Mr. Morrick made nn allusion to a report that an attempt would be made at a rescue, whereat tho prisoner scemou to be inucn amused. At Ave minutes past one Judge Fisher re sumed bis font uiHin tho bench. Mr. Mallor, the crier, called tho court to order, and Marshall Phillips was directed to bring tho jury down, lly thla time the room was much crowded.

Mr. Bradley said the prisoner did not consent, and u tlit.ro was any. ttiscnnrgc, it would be ngaiust the protest of the prisoner. Mr. Carrington said iic would leave the w hole matter with the Court. Judge Fisher said ho bad already re ceived tvvo or tlireo notes of a similar tenor to the one lead. If there was any possibili ty of the jury agreeing, ho would not ob ject to keeping them for a reasonable time. But as ho was informed they could uot pos nibly agree, ho would dischargo them. The jury was accordingly discharged at ten minutes past one o'clock, and tho jury then Jclt tlic court room. Judge Fisher then immediately rend the fullowiug: I havo now a very unpleasant duly to dis charge, but ono which 1 cannot forego. Ou tho 2d day of July last, during tho progress of tho trial of John II. Burratt for the mur der of Abraham Lincoln, immediately after the court had taken a recess until the fol lowing morning, as the presiding justice was descending from the bench, Joseph II. Bradley, Esq., accosted Jiim in a rude aud insulting manner, charging tho judge with having otlered him Mr. Bradley a scries of insults from the bench from tho commence ment of tho triul. Tho judgo disclaimed 1 any intention whatever of passing any in sult, nnd assured Mr. Bradley that ho cuter taiued for him no other feelings than those of respect. Mr. Bradley, so far from ac cepting this explanation or disclaimer, th.-oattned the judgo with personal chastise ment. As he understood, no court can administer justice, or live, if its judges are to be threat ened with personal violence nn all occasions whenever tho irrascibilily of counsel may bo excited by uu imaginary result. The offense of Mr. Bradley is oue which even his years will not palliate. It canuot be overlooked nor go uupuuished as a coutcmpt of court. It is therefore ordered that his name be stricken from tho rolls of attorneys practic ing iu tms court. ilr. Bradley immediately rose to his feet, and asked if the court had adjourned. Judge Fisher. It has not, sir. Mr. Bradley. Then, sir, in the presence of the court nnd this assembly, 1 hereby pronouueo the statement just made by the Judgo as utterly false in every particular. .Judge Fisher, interrupting. Crier, adjourn the court. Mr. Malloy 'itbc Ci'u.i . This court iu now adjourned. Mr. Bradley. Well, then, I will any now Judge Fisher (ribiug to leave the" bench). You can say what you please, air, nud make a speech to tho croud, if you like. Mr. Bradley. You have no nuthoiity to disuiiss mo from tho bar. That must be the act of three of tho judges of the Buprctno Court. Judge Fishes said, "Very well, Mr. Brad ley, you can make the projier appeal." lie theu left the room, lollowed by a large crowd of persons. Immediately after leaving the courtroom, Judge Fiiiher proceeded to the street and entered a car for the purpose of proceeding uptown, ile was followed closely by Mr. Bradley, who entered tho car, aud, step ping up to Judgo Fisher, hnuded him a note. Judge Fioher tool; the note, rose to hi3 feci, opened H, and begau to read it, and Mr. Hrudioy turned and left tho car, around which in: excited crowd had gathered. It is understood that the note was a challenge. Several pnliccuieu sprang iuto tho car, and olhcer Mcllcnry stepped to the sldo of Mr. Bradley and kept iu that position while ho remained iu the car. Leaving the car, Mi. Bradley passed through the crowd and entered his office, aud was folio wod by several friends belong ing to the bar. A large crowd immediately gnthciiid ou the corner in front of his orllce. After rcmaiuiug iu his oilice a few moments, Mr. Bradley came out urui-in arm with his brother, Charles Bradley Esq., of tho Na tional Bank of tho llepublic, uud proceeded dowu Louisiana aveuuo, followed by a crowd of ft iouds nud curious porsous, who excited ly discussed tho proceedings which had just transpired. In the meantime Judge Fisher resumed his scat in the car, and continued his perusal of the uotc, while the car moved off. A number of his personal friends had entered the car, and a great deal of apprehension was manifested of a personal encounter be tween tho Judge and tho deposed lawyor. JOIIXNO: m. SKtU'Y.

Mr. Stanton, without hesitation, retired from his office, and General Grant assumed control. Many of the subordinate officers of the department were not aware of tho change that bad taken place until after the fact was made Dublio in the evening papers, while others supposed that Mr. Stanton bad at lost offered his resig nation, which supposition gained ground from tho fact that Mr. Stanton sent to the President a letter of remonstranco, tho con tents of which, not being known, were pro sumcd to bo a formal resignation. It is gen. orally assumed that General Grant'B tenure of office will be short, as it is well known that the President offered tlio portfolio of tno War licportment to Ooncral jomcs i.

Tlio New York Herald this morning publishes special tclo- grams from Washington of unusual interest reporting a it does the impending, if not actual existence of a Cabinet crisis, invol ving such a state of relations between Presi dent Johnson and his constitutional advi sors as will probably lead to the dismissal or resignation not only 01 secretary stonion. but ol Bccrotnry beward, nr. ju uuiiocn ami Mr. Randall. Mr. Stanton's removal is delated, it is said only in consequence of the disagreement iu the Cabinet as the propriety of the step. in casts. Beware and inurlow weca op pose it, the former so strenuously as to irri tato Mr. Johnson, who are told, regrets hav ing hitherto followed tho counsels of the Secretary of State so Implicitly, and will endeavor to regain the prestige which he had thus lost by requesting Mr. Seward's resignation. Mr. Adams. United States Minister to London, is spoken of as his successor. Secretary MCulloch and Mr. Randall are not, It is alleged, faithful in their political action to the President, and it is rumored that Mr. Randall contemplates an early re fiifnation. Mr. Johnson, it is reported, entertains tho opinion that Mr. M'Culloch has brought tho administration into disreputo by tho ap polntment of improper jcrsous to office, and that his financial policy has not been qui to up to the mark. Tho difficulty between tho Executive and Mr. McCullouh ia spoken of as so extreme that the name of Moses Taylor, of New York, Ib mentioned in Washington as the successor of tho Secretary. Secretary Stanton, it ia alleged, has re ceived information of a scheme for tho arm ing of military organizations in the lato re bel States, with tho view of making a now assault ou tho government, nnd Hint he holds on to office with the intention of frus trating the conspiracy. The Tennessee selection. Tho Tennessee slnto election on Thursday week passed off very quietly. In Memphis tlio saloons were nil closed, nnd tho best of order prevailed. Tho Twcn- ty-tirst inlontry were stationed nt Court House square during the day, but they were not called out. By the first arrangement tho whites aud negroes were to have sepa rate votiuu places : but later in the day. finding that they could not all voto thus, they sought other polls iu crowds, and then many wore itnablo to vote owing to the short timo allowed. The city gives Browulow 2,202 majority. Iu Nashville tho election was the quietest ever known. Tho whites and blacks voted without interruption. At tho polls a few persons were arrested for attempting to voto twice, anil others for carrying coucculed weapons.
