The Treasury Department is still busily engaged examining the bonds on hand, for the purpose of discovering If there are any more of the counterfeit 7-30s.

' The President on the llenioval of Mr. Stanton. The Post's Washington special says : The following Is a statement of the President's views relative to the case of Mr. Stanton ; and its publication here this morning was authorized by him. Whoever shall take the place, will receive an appointment on sight as Secretary of War, vice E. M. Stautou removed ; for it is the purpose of Mr. John-son to make an absolute removal of Stanton . under the law as it existed prior to the passage of the Tenure of Ottlce bill, which Is to be . held unconstltutlotal. In this opinion Mr. Stanton concurred when the bill was passed, u:ul himself prepared part of the veto message denying the right of Congress to pass such an uct. The removal of Stanton having been accomplished In the manner indicated, the President will simply send his message to the Seunte nominating A. or B. to be Secretary of War. By this it is expected, iu case the .nomination is rejected, possibly Mr. Stanton may be reinstated, but being out of otllce, lie will be compelled to seek legal .remedy, by mandamus, or any other mode, If there be any other poluted out bv law. This will bring the question of the fenurc-of-Of-lice Act before the Supreme Court of the United States for adjudication, and by its decision the right of Stanton to hold the office will be decided. Under the old law, the Executive had the power to suspend or remove, nnd the suspension of Stanton was adopted, iorme unie oeing, out oi an abuudant caution, and iu order that the act might also be within the terms of the Tcnure-of-Olllce bill, but it was, in the first Instance, the purpose ol the President to make an absolute removal of Stanton, sooner or later.

Your committee would recommend, Iu order that there may be no delay upoa the part of the city In passing the proper assessment ordinance for the payment of the balauee due Robert McClelland, that the above sum of 1,117 05 be paid the city, and that the City Attorney proceed by law or otherwise to collect the same and pay it Into the City Treasury.

Mr. Jaeger submitted a contract signed by Robert McClelland, accepting of the terms of the ordinance. On motion of Mr. Donaldson, the bond was accepted, and ordered to be entered upon the jouraal. On motion, the Council adjourned until Mo nday. evening. Starling Medical College. The regular course of Lectures In Starling Medical College has commenced, and we are gratified to learn that the number of students already in attendance, gives promise of a much larger class than has for many years attended this institution. The enlargement of the corps of Instructors by the appointment of Dr. Peck, of the Lunatic Asylum, to the chair of Insanity j Dr. R. M. Denlg to that of Medical Jurisprudence and Toxicology , aud Dr. S. Tur-ney, of Clrcleville, to that of Physiology and Institutes of Medicine, together with the increased facilities for Imparling Instruction, derived from hospital and other arrangements, has not been without influence in attracting students to this locality. That the professors are men of ability, deeply Imbued with the responsibility of their position and alive to tho proper performance of the duties which devolve upon them as teachers, Is evinced in the highly respectable position occupied In tho professional ranks by those who have from time to time graduated at Starling Medical College. The entire relief of the College from all pecuniary embarrassments, enables the faculty to ofl'erstudents much greater Inducements than heretofore ; this, with the healthfulness of our city, Its social and other advantages, cannot do otherwise than secure for this Institution a degree of prosperity, which .has not been equaled at any stage of Us exU'-4 ence.

The resldeuco of tho late Sir Frederick Bruco In Washington Is said to present a particularly sad appearance, with all Its blinds closed and Its numerous evidences of II le and happiness all gone for ever. Though In reality a superior residence, It Is dreadful-ly disfigured by a huge fantastic porch, which was originally erected by the proprietor, a noted dentist, as a catch-ponny advertisement. It was always a wonder In Washington that the late Minister should have consented to occupy such a fantastic home. The house formerly occupied by Sir Freder'c't'a predecessor Is now tho property of a wealthy negro. A ma "i In Alton, Iowa, hus escaped from punishment for adultery, because the prosecuting attorney had charged him with "Idolatry," which Is not known as a crime lu Iowa. As an old woman was lately walking through one of the street of Montreal at midnight, a patrol called out, "Who's there V "It Is I, patrol," said she ; "don't be afraid.";

' The President on the llenioval of Mr. Stanton. The Post's Washington special says : The following Is a statement of the President's views relative to the case of Mr. Stanton ; and its publication here this morning was authorized by him. Whoever shall take the place, will receive an appointment on sight as Secretary of War, vice E. M. Stautou removed ; for it is the purpose of Mr. John-son to make an absolute removal of Stanton . under the law as it existed prior to the passage of the Tenure of Ottlce bill, which Is to be . held unconstltutlotal. In this opinion Mr. Stanton concurred when the bill was passed, u:ul himself prepared part of the veto message denying the right of Congress to pass such an uct. The removal of Stanton having been accomplished In the manner indicated, the President will simply send his message to the Seunte nominating A. or B. to be Secretary of War. By this it is expected, iu case the .nomination is rejected, possibly Mr. Stanton may be reinstated, but being out of otllce, lie will be compelled to seek legal .remedy, by mandamus, or any other mode, If there be any other poluted out bv law. This will bring the question of the fenurc-of-Of-lice Act before the Supreme Court of the United States for adjudication, and by its decision the right of Stanton to hold the office will be decided. Under the old law, the Executive had the power to suspend or remove, nnd the suspension of Stanton was adopted, iorme unie oeing, out oi an abuudant caution, and iu order that the act might also be within the terms of the Tcnure-of-Olllce bill, but it was, in the first Instance, the purpose ol the President to make an absolute removal of Stanton, sooner or later.

The regular course of Lectures In Starling Medical College has commenced, and we are gratified to learn that the number of students already in attendance, gives promise of a much larger class than has for many years attended this institution. The enlargement of the corps of Instructors by the appointment of Dr. Peck, of the Lunatic Asylum, to the chair of Insanity j Dr. R. M. Denlg to that of Medical Jurisprudence and Toxicology , aud Dr. S. Tur-ney, of Clrcleville, to that of Physiology and Institutes of Medicine, together with the increased facilities for Imparling Instruction, derived from hospital and other arrangements, has not been without influence in attracting students to this locality. That the professors are men of ability, deeply Imbued with the responsibility of their position and alive to tho proper performance of the duties which devolve upon them as teachers, Is evinced in the highly respectable position occupied In tho professional ranks by those who have from time to time graduated at Starling Medical College. The entire relief of the College from all pecuniary embarrassments, enables the faculty to ofl'erstudents much greater Inducements than heretofore ; this, with the healthfulness of our city, Its social and other advantages, cannot do otherwise than secure for this Institution a degree of prosperity, which .has not been equaled at any stage of Us exU'-4 ence.

The resldeuco of tho late Sir Frederick Bruco In Washington Is said to present a particularly sad appearance, with all Its blinds closed and Its numerous evidences of II le and happiness all gone for ever. Though In reality a superior residence, It Is dreadful-ly disfigured by a huge fantastic porch, which was originally erected by the proprietor, a noted dentist, as a catch-ponny advertisement. It was always a wonder In Washington that the late Minister should have consented to occupy such a fantastic home. The house formerly occupied by Sir Freder'c't'a predecessor Is now tho property of a wealthy negro. A ma "i In Alton, Iowa, hus escaped from punishment for adultery, because the prosecuting attorney had charged him with "Idolatry," which Is not known as a crime lu Iowa. As an old woman was lately walking through one of the street of Montreal at midnight, a patrol called out, "Who's there V "It Is I, patrol," said she ; "don't be afraid."; |
