Mr. Weed' only connection with the Timed is that of an editorial writer or occasional contributor over hia own signa ture. Mr. John Swinton, who has been tha managing editor since Mr. 'Wilson's departure, has resigned, and is succeeded by Mr. Morrison, one of tha ablest writers on the newspaper press. Governor Bay mond rettins the active management of the pa pen and will not permit his Con gressional duties to interfere with it. Since Mr. Dana's reeicnation a leaven of discontent has worked divisions in the old Tribune office, and changes innumerable have been made, while the most important are yet to be made. Tbe chief conspirators at the time of Mr. Gay's accession to pow er were Oliver J ohoton, of the Anti-Slavery Standard, Tbeodare Tilton, of the Indepen dent, and & U. Gay. Mr. Gy had b ard ly domesticated himself when he developed any amount of annovibg fuseinees, and quarrelled with every body in the office. One by one the workers left him.

Whether Tilton is hoping to h.ve the po sition at fome future lime for himself its a matter of question, as his present field, the Independent, affords him ample scope.

No sooner had she regained her strength aad consciousness than she re turned to the court-room, and in a few moments afterwards I saw her again in arms of her stalwart attendant, having the appearance of being under a second of fainting. Whether she made a third upon the foul atmosphere of the room I am unable to say, Dut pre sums it is most likely the did.

The Herild's Washington special has tha louowing : Mr. Conway's mission nas been success ful in the matter of a majority of the K'chmond Ambulance Committee, but has failed in a few individuals belonging to the urgaui&9.uua sou in oenaii ot uenerala Echols and St. John. The President ask ed for tbe names embraced inthoa nhn- lance commiltca, and inquired particular ly wnetner or not it included Joe Ander son, of the Tredegar Works. When the list was handed him he scanned it careful ly, and pardoned such as were not especial ly under the ban. A considerable eflort is being made by the Union men of Alabama to have the President pardon L. B. Walker, ot Huats- viue, me nrst rebel Secretary of War. He was retired from that position a Brig adier General in 1861, as they assert, be cause ne ws not sumoieniiy truculent to Jeff. Davis, and was denied any command commensurate with his rank until he threw up his commission and left tha ser vice His friends claim for him that he lways opposed Davis' harsh treatment of Union men in Bast Tennessee, and volun teered to defend Brownlow and others. It is understood that Governor Pierpont of Virginia, declines to sign any more rec ommendations for pardon, as he says that proper attention has not been accorded to the recommendations he has already made. He has recommended the pardon men like Mr. Anderson, of the Trede gar Iron Works, who have made large fortunes out ef tho rebellion during the war, and who now desire a pardon that they may enjoy the fruits ot their labors behalf of the rebellion. President John son does not realize the benefit to the Union cause to bederivdd from a promiscuous re lief of such men from the pains and penal to which their acts have exposed them, whereat the Government is much exer cised. Information has been received here of the deith of of J. D. Doty, Gov ernor of Utah Territory. The decision of the Internal Be venue Department a year ago that certified check s were to be treated as currency and taxed accordingly, has been confirmed by Ihe solicitor of tha Treasury Department, and may now be considered as final'y settled. The decision is one of great interest to business men and bankers. Major General J. M. Schoefield, accom panied by Colonel Wherry, Lieutenant Colonel Cambell, Major Lord and Captain Winslow and his staff, arrived in Wasning. ton this morning from Newbern. The General is unkerstood to be here by order General Grant for consultation concern ing affairs in bis department, and he will probably return South in a lew days. The general land office, acting under the orders of the Secretary of the Interior, has advised the local land officers at St, Pe ters Minissota, that the lands within the Cat Winnebago, Indian reservation, ean not be sold at a price lose than their ap prized value until otherwise ordered by the Secretary. There are some 8,000 acres valvable land within the reserve still undisposed of appraised at from one dollar and twenty-five cents to three dollars per acre. The Times special says that the rebel Senator H. C. Burnett, of Kentucky, has gone to that State, under a military guard, be turned over to the civU authorities trial or release, as the civil government may deem proper. The Tribune's New Orleans correspond ent, of the 16th, says: I was to-day told that some 5,000 men of the late rebel army Texas have gone over the Bio Grande enter the Mexican service. They are mostly Missourians and Texans, and my informant is a young officer of a Texan regiment He said that the men declare! they could not live under the Hag of the United States and would even fight with negroes. This, he said, is to show how far they would go and now bitter is the feeling etilL The young man added that a heavy bounty is offered to the men to enter tbe army of Mexico. The Tribune's Washington special says: The remaining corps of the Army of the Potomac will probably be consolidated into division each. Orders have just been issued for the mus tering out of the following regiments,mst which are veterans: The 10th, 39th. 40'h, 91st, 86th, C9th, 88th, 93d, 69th, 52d, 49th, 77th and 431 New York; 99th, 106th, 69th, 53d, 110th, 68th, 81st, 93J, 102J, 61st 98th, 87th, 190th, and 4 2d Massachusetts; 7th West Vir ginia; 5th New Hampshiie; 1st Maine; 5th, 6.h, and 8lh Vermont; 10th and 31 New York, and the 1st Maryland volun- rs. The total force mustered out under this order, is 15,000, leaving the aggregate strength of the remaining division nearly 16.000. The Hon. ILW. Davis will probably de liver the 4th of July oration in Chicogo, and it is said will take strong ground ia favor of negro suffrage. : . , . . ,,,, ; , Mr. Davis would have officiated as ora tor in Baltimore on the same occasion, had not received aa earlier invitation from Chicago. t -., - - ' It may interest many of awUel procliv ities to know that there are still a large nunber of official vacancies among the colored troops.

CINCINNATI, June 26. THE NEW BLONDIN. Successful Crossing of the Niagara River on a Rope. The last sensation at Niagara ia tha tw. formanca of a Harry Leslie, who is styled American Blondin. On Thuisdiy week that individual walked the river on a rope, some two hundred feet above the water. Leslie had stretched his rope across tha river at about the location selected bv Blondin in his second ssjon, a ooi.it hum hundred feet below the bridge, over the first of the terrific rapids commencing at that place. It has a span cf about eight hundred feet. The surge of the current at this point is tremendous, having a power ful effect upon the spectator on the bridge banks. The line is about a four-Lith Kanila, and is sfvred bv ek-h'v nvi twenty lciiing from a side to each baik open space of about thirty feet occur ring in the cantre. The heavy rain dr ing day had contracted the tackle to a high degree, and the rope had hut little sway, a third of the length being nearly hori zontal. Leslie is about twentv-eiirlit feet eight inches in csiuht. Kthn? ii Jhi build, but lithe and aenA nnrl nm.u.i great nerve and muscle. At 4:32 he em erged from the stand on the Am ican side immediately cleaiinga perpendicular pre ipice ot over two hundred feet, and hia wife wasobfcved to take her position at the of the rope, and watch his prog rets with intense interest. Amid tbe rn,i0. the surrounding soenery the oaring ad venturer seemed like a lilliputian upon the curse, ai d his appearance was the signal for a sudden silence, on'y disturbed the roar of the restless waters beneVb. proceeded slowly and cautiously, and when about one-fourth cf the d Litunnia Bat down upon the rope and rested a few sec onds. Aain resuming his Journey, he was noticed to hesitate at intervals, as if fatigued, after passing the center space he step ped very regularly and without hesitation until the stana on the Canada shore was gained. The time occupied in crossing was minutes and forty-eight seconds. After a brief rest ou the Canada side, employed in a fcmiliar chat, Leslie sgain poised the balaucing pole, and started on return, the time being 13 minutes to o'clock. He proes sded down the incline the same caution msni.'eeted in his start, and evidently experienced in creased difficulty in pausing lbs guys lead ing from the Canada shore. At limes be noticed to retrace hia steps, advance, again retire several times; on ap proacning a point where a guy was fasten ed, it seamed to require ereat .kill. ani th. exercise of extreme caution against a sud den jog of the rope liable at these points. short distance out he performed the feat standing on his lelt foot, placing the of his right foot againt his left anee. Gaining the centre of therope he lay down his back, and exhibited his expert " balancing powers by rezaininar hi. ft in quick and graceful manner. On reaching opposite incline, as usually noted in performances of rope walkers, hi lost further time, but proceeded mnirflir tn bank. The time occupied in the sec crossing was thirteen minutes and twenty-two seconds. The general ia pres sion seemed to be that Leslie is the equal Blondin. FaeM Lais Bcriaioa.
