dertook to name, with certainty, those who are to
compose his cabinet. We have had many let
tiers asking for Information upon this subject, ami

cabinet, except that be is DESTROYS to receive in
formation from all +; and determined to mako his
selections With strict regard 10 public sentiment,
snd the honesty and capacity of individuals.
This, perhaps, is the appropriate occ aston 70

when he is not engaged, the nature and extent
Of his public duties are such as to make il neccs-
sary to suspend, for short time at LEAST, the ar
arrangement Of keeping his rooms open Tor the re.

Having business with him can soc him at ahy time,
and that he will be gratifed 10 receive the visits
of others at all times, when he rs not particularly
tengaged In public duties. [Ipash. TEL
