There were no new developments tm the War Office trouble yesterday: but we believe, notwithstanding the publication of @ state- ment to the contrary, that the President oo! tinues to recognize Mr. Stanton as Secrel and bas not issued any order forbidding transaction of bneiness with him in that ca. pacity. Itis not probable that any new fea- tures of the cage will transpire until after the Cabinet meeting to-day, at which time it will Provably be fully discussed and a Cisjon as to future steps be reached. Lt is Seserted on most reliable authority that the Cabiner is divided in opinion regarding Propriety of urging Mr. Stanton’s resignation any further, or of snepending bim under the second section of the Tenure of Office bil, which could be done without making pab- lic the reasons therefor until the assem. bling of Congress. It is asserted that one et the Cabinet, who has held hie office since Mr. Lincoln's administration, and on who is an appointee of President Johnson, will seriously object to any further complica- tions of the matter and insist that Mr. Stanton, be allowed to pursue his own course in the futwre. It will probably be suggested by them that the feeling which would be engendered in Congress against Mr. Johnson, if he urges the matter any further, would assuredly result bis impeachment. Indeed, it 1s even hi that one of these gentlemen is so earnestin matter that he Will probably resign. umless Mr. Stanton is retamed. General Graat is known to sympathize with Mr. Stanto: id has been in consultation with him several umes since the trouble began.

Their honeymoon was soon blighted by domestic dif- ficulties, and the newly made wife soon refus- ed te live with her husband, but was persuad- ed by him to retarn onlyto leave him again and again. Adams’ love for his wife was very strong. and he seemed to be per fectly tiser: ble when she was away from home. His friends claim that the woman married him tor money,fbut finding that he had bat little, re- fused to live with him on that account, and that whenever he bad been paid off she was ready to come to his Bouse and remained until the money was gone. Mrs. Adame and her folks assert, however, that she left aim on account of cruel treatment and threats. and there is no doubt that he had threatened to Kill her unless she would live with him. Mrs. Aaams’s injuries are not of a seri cbaracter, the wound belog superficial some three or four inches in length. she is able to sit up, and converees as fluently asever. She staves that he came to the house where che was soon after eleven o'clock, and as he broughta new pair of shoes for her she let him in. He then asked herifshe would live with him, and on replying in the negative, he said, “De you remember that I told you that if you would not live with me we should both be buried im the eame grave!” She replied that she did remember it, and he immediately cut her throat, but it was done so quickly that she does not know with what. Sheran toa neigh- leaving him in the house, andaphysician was soon procured, who dressedthe wound. fterward Adams came running and the occupants of another tenement soon heard the report of a pistol, fol- lowed by three groans, but he was dead before they could get to him. Adams was an honest, industrious light mulatto, and was respected by all who knew him. Two or three years ago he was sexton of the North Obristian church. He wasa native of Baltimore, and was 34 years of nge. He lett @ letter directed to one of the employers, re- questing him to take charge of bis effects. His wife's desertion of him had borne heavi- ly on his mind, and for 2 week past he had been partiaily insane. Tux Dirricutty Between Messrs. Botts AnD HawxuURsT.—We have already pub- lished an account of the late difficulty be- tween Mr. Botts and Mr. Hawxhurst, in Rien. mond. They have both furnished statements of the affair tor publieation. Mr. B., in his statement, says he refused to give his hand to H. when the latier offered it, and explained why he did so, detailing the occurrences at the late Radical Convention, and concluding with “Mir. Hawxhurst, your conduct has been such as not only to disgust every decent and re- spectable white man, but there wasn't a re- 8} ectable colored man in the crowd that would not have felt aehamed to have been guilty of your conduct, and therefore 1 don't care to hold any intercourse with you." Mr. Hawx- hurat, in bis statement, says, “I arose as Mr. B. was approaching and extended my hand. He said, ‘No! Hawxhurst, I will not take your hand, nor will any gentleman, and I will tell youthereason. You so packed and arranged the African Church on the day of the Con- yention, that no respectable people could get in; you induced Dr. Bayne, of Norfolk. to offerand pueh an adjournmen: of the Con- vention. My answer was, ‘Both of those state- ments are falee;’” and then ke went on ex- Plaining what he bad done, ana attempting to exonerate himeelf from the charges made by Mr. B. Tas Manytanp Mitirary Law.—On Mon- day last, Jonas Myers, of Uniontown district, was brought before Abner Neal, esq ,of West. minster, on a charge of resisting and threat- ening the enrolling officer of his district, Mr. Warner. A State warrant was issued in the case, but the justice, on reflection, decided that the proper process under the law should have been @ summons. and so discharged the accused. On the same day a man named Ban- kert was brought, under arrest on a State warrant, before J.H Moppe, Eeq., of West- miaster, on complaint of G. P. Albaugh, en- rolling officer of New Windsor district, for refusing to comply with the law. A writ ef habeas corpus was issued in this case by Judge Smith, who discharged the party trom custody. As far as wecan learn, neither of the above decisions go farther than to estab- lish the fact that it is not proper to proceed under a State warrant to recover the penalty of 85 imposed for refusing compliance with the law.— Westminster Advocate. TATTERED GREEN BACKS—How to Mend Them. The following is said to be the best plan of mending the greenback currency,which, as all know, 18 80 exceedingly delicate, and ‘apt to become dilapidated and torn:—After smoothing “out the edges, carefully moisten the edges with the tp of the finger, after wetting it on the tongue; then lay the bill on a piece of writing paper, ‘carefully drawing the edges together, and lay another piece of writing paper over it. A few seconds rubbing with the finger over the seam will make it adhere, and a little adroit. nese, when it is dry,will enable a person to lift the bill from the paper without tearing it. ‘The seam will, it 1s said, then be invisible, and be the strongest part of the bill DEATH OF a PRizst.—Rev.

Gen. SantiagoVidaurri, an old, gray-baired Mexican patriot, who had served for twenty-eight days as Maximilian’s Secretary of the Treasury, was discovered by the police at daylight, to-day, in the house of an American. He was rudely dragged through the streets to the city council buildings, and condemned to be shot to death,in the bark, at i2 o'clock, or in six hours’ time ' The old soldier (aged 6© years) never winced. He bUwed Lis stately form in acquiescence to the doom so easily pronounced upon him, and asked only one boon, that he mignt see his son. “No, you | ean tee No son, nor can you speak with any one but officers and soldiers en Slaughter (ex- Confederate) obtained a respite for him of three hours. At 3 p. m. to-day he was partly led and | partly puehed through the Plaza de Armas, close by and under the shadow of the Grand Cathedral, and kicked while his hands were | bound, through the two streets of Santa Do- mingo to a small public square of that same name, and there, in the corner of a equare | de by the angles of the ruins of an old con- vent, they blindfolded him, and placing nim in such a position that his corpse would fall in scavenger’s offale, they turned his back to the troops and to the prople. and literally tore the chest of the giant soldier of Nueva Leon into a steve. Not satisfied with his death. the ser- geant of the guard loaded a musket, placed it | to bis forehead, fired his piece, and none among the living could have recognized the brave old Vidaurri, of Neuva Leon, in the horribly mangled bedy lying ther TERRIBLE SUFFERING ATSEA.—At the cemi- monthly meeting of the Commissioners of Emigration in New York, Wednesday after- noon, & committee reported upon the case of the Austrian ship Guizippe Baccarich. The Teport says that the death of nineteen of the passengers of the Baccarich was owing to the deficiency and bad q Plied, and to the poisonous water given tor use. ‘The ship had neither tea nor sugar, phy- sician nor drug store: the bread was mouli and unfit for use,and the potatoes were bad. The report charges that these geaths were so | many murders, seventeen of which occurred | onthe parsage trom Antwerp, and two while the ship was in quarantine here after her ar- rival. “A. Straus & Co., shippers at Antwerp, are very severely censured, and the committee arraign them as especially guilty of murder. ‘When the Baccarich was quarantined twenty. four sick passengers were at one placed in the hospital ship, and they speedily recovered. All the surviving passengers have been informed of their legal right to obtain rearese for tbe wronge inflicted upon them, and many of them have already taken steps to thatend.

AN ANGLO-FRENCH ALLIANCE.—The Edin- burgh Review, in an article on « The Military Institutions of France,” argues that a military union of that country and England is neces- sary for peace and civilization. It expresses the opinion that the power and even the supe- riority of the French army is an eesential con- dition of the liberty and independence of Ei Tope, which it regards as threatened by changes Prussia has made in the distribution of power. lt is also suggested that only by such acombination can the independence of the East be secured. The same alliance is also looked upon as the P sets of ce with the United Stater.

ANOTHER Great Bripcg.—Since the tims of the famous Wheeling Bridge case the ola notion that great navigable rivers could not bs bridged has been set aside, and the growing necessities and paramont importance of our inland river commerce have led to the erecuon of several notable bridges. The Rock Island Bridge case finally settled the question of Tight, and it has not since been serious! raised. The magnificent suspension bridge at Cin- cinnati now surpasees anything of the kind in this country; but the people of Lonisviile, de- termined not to be outdone, proposes to build one etill larger, The foundation stone ot this structure was laid last week. The total length of the bridge will 5,220 teet, or nearly ene mile. The graded approaches will be 2,500 feet in length, and the superstructure, consist- ing of fron suspension trusses, will rest on twemty-tive piers and two abutments. The longest span will be three hundred and sixty feet—tnirty-six feet longer than the longest span of the Victoria bridge at Montreal. This bridge witl be adapted to the use of steam and horse railroads, carriages and foot passengers. The lowest projecting points of the long spans will not_be less than ninety feet above low water. The highest known of the Obio river is forty-four feet, so that even in the event of another like it, there would still be fifty-two feet between the lower part of the bridge apa the water. Until the St. Louis bridge is finished this Louisville structare will be the most impor- tant in the country.
