It has so foundation either in the words of the decree, nor in any possi? ble logical deduction from these words. The thought even that it would have any such bearing, I am certain never entered into tbe mind of any of the members of tho Council. The Vatioun canon did not change in one iota the relations of Catholics to the civil power any more than it changed those * of Protestants. It left that important matter, as connected with the order of oivil society, where the New Testament leaves it.

In the course of the conversation, tho subject of disbursing funds for the payment of the bauds in the cabinet making department uf Mr. Mullett's office, was brought up, and a difference ' of opinion was aeon made manifest. Mr. Muilett desired iu ojutroi ibis matter agreeable to bis owu convic? tions of right, hot so much because be oared particularly in tbis special in? stance; bat because tbis shop was a component part of an immense ratifica? tion, tbe disturbance of which would affect tbe whole machiuery of which he bad now control. Tbe Secretary said that they had concluded that Mr. Mnllett did not hare tbe power in this matter, and that he could not be per? mitted to carry out bis wishes in this particular. Mr. Mniiett said: "Mr. Secretary, I would tender my resigna? tion, sir, before I would surrender my control iu this matter." The Secre? tary said: **I don t care a d?n it you do." Mr. Mullott?"I do tender my resignation now, Mr. Secretary." Tbe Secretary?"I accept it, at once, sir." Mr. Mnllett here retired to hie office, bat this morning he called en the Sec? retary and shook hands with him, and said he would call on him again this afternoon?not baying any ill-feelings whatever in the matter. A. It. Shep? herd, who has a large oontraot nnder Mullett to fill, was at the Treasury to? day, endeavoring to have Mnllett with? draw his resignation and amicably set? tle the matter with the Secretary.
