THE CABINET DISCUSSED.

II is hardly worth while, we think, for the Press
TO make Cabinet Tor Gen. Harrison. lie may as
well be left to perform that duty himself lie
comes into the Presidency with such strength of
public confidence and popular opinion in his ia
vor, that, whether in regard to the formation Of
his Cabinet other important measures, he has
no occasion to regard any thing but tho greatest
good of the country, and the general wishes of the
people. These, we know he will consult, consci
entiousIy and wisely and we await his decison.--
We object therefore, altogether, and from the
start, to ALL attempts TO limit or tramnlcl his dis
erection. The People have chosen him, on the
reliance that when the proper time arrives, he will
exercise his own judgment; and that, we are fully
persuaded, he ,OU do.
Nor do we think it at all necessary to anticipate
who may, or who may not, bo candidates Tor the
4 resdency four years hence. Events, yet future,
IN ust OF course essentially bear on that question,
an Il control its decision. When the proper time
ar ives. a selection will be tremendously made, no
do lbt after the fortunate and successful example
of he Hnrrisburgh Convention oflast year. Mean
vii ile it is obviously improper that Gen. Harrison
SHE ml either embarrass himself or he EN-
bai raised by others, from considerations connec-
ted with subject contingent and uncertain in
its eature and in regard 10 which the proper time
OF lcon is so remote.
We only add, that to rescue the country from
the numerous evils which it is now suffering, to
rei Estate The public prosperity, restore 10 public
ibe rty and bring back the Constitution to its Tor
ner condition, will require not only all the wis
don aud experience Of Gen. Harrison himself, but
the aid of the ablest men in the country, wherever
the may be found. Alias.

Observation-Disclosures

The Washington Globe still continues to assert
that the election of Gen. Harrison is the result of
fraud, and in proof of its assertion maintains that
in certain staes-per example those of Ohio and
Pennsy lvania-the number ofvotes polled exceeds
that of the white male inhabitants possessing the
right of suffrage.
We have been at some pains to investigate the
matter, and find from an examination of the Gen.
sus tables made by order Of the Legislature of
Ohio, that the number of white males who had at
tanned their majority in the year 1899, was 29l,-
1872. The number ofvotes polled in the State on
the Both October, 1910, was 272,923, so that the
actual vote cast on the presidential question, was
less by 1920 then the aggregate ofvoters in the
commonwealth in 1889. In Pennsylvania the
number of taxable inhabitants is about 100000
while the amount of votes poed at the recent cleo
ton was only 2S7 SOB, showing that nearly L 900
voters did not find their way to the ballot boxes.
So much for the Globes assertions, and such are
the baseless assumptions upon which it predicates
its charges If fraud against the opposition. 1t 10
useless to dodge the conclusion that the political
revolution just accomplished IL the effect of the
popular will.-M y. Times.

SUPREME COURT. BOSTON

The Poison Case. The November term of this
Court before which Mrs. Kinney is to he tried for
the poisoning of her husband was commenced on
Tuesday last Judge Putnam delivered charge
of considerable length to the Grand Jury, chief1y
in relation to tho crime Of Murder by poison.
The Boston Post says Judge Putnam after pom
ting out the distinction between accidental, excu-
sable, and juslifiable homicide anG monsaughter,
through the in6rmity of human nature, under
sudden provacaon, he remarked that none oil the
palliatng principles applicable to these species OF
homicide, could be urged in defence of purity
who should knowingly deprive human being OF
life by administering poison. No degree OF prov
ocation could qualify the enorn,ity of such an Of
fence, rs it was an act which required time plan
and purpose. Delioeration and evil intent were
indicated Ivy the very mode Of taking life by poi
son. The malice aorethought, or evil mind of
such an offender was so great, That 1t he or she
should mingle the poisonous portion with intent
to kill only one person, and by accident it should
be taken by another person, the crime of wfml
murder would be completed; and TO this point his
honor cited an affecting which occurred in
England during the reign of Queen Elizabeth.
A married gentleman unhappily conceived
violent passion for n woman and was determined
to have her and undertook to remove the only oh.
sacle to the union, his wife, by poison, which he
placed in an apple. This apple he gave to her in
the presence of his daughter, to whom he was
much attached. The mother eat small part of
the apple and then handed it to the daughter,
who commenced eating it. Tho father was now
agonized by conflicting emotion the fear of the
consequences TO himself if he should disclose the
fact, that the apple charged with poison, and,
on The other hand, the fear that his daughter would
he poisoned While these thoughts passing
in his mind and kept him undecided, the girl fin
shed the apple, md died III consequence, but the
we survived. The accidental killing of the
daughter under these circumstances, was justly
held TO be murder, for murder was in his
heart.
After the charge, the Grand Jury adjourned TO
to morrow, when they will meet, aud take up the
charge of poison against Mrs. Kinney.
i P.S. Tie Jury have brought in an indictment.

, THE INCORRUpTIBLE YEoMANRY.

1t is a fact well worthy of observation in respect
TO Il le ato election, that the great revolution which
has crowned the exertons of the wings, has been
ach ieved hy the farmers In our large cities. and
win sre the influence OF govern't. patronage has been
mai My expended, the tories have nearly maintained
the ir ground, in some cases they have gained up
on their opponents. But as the tide of contest
rol led into the interior, a counter torrent met 1t
fro m the ballot box ofthe farmers, and the reaction
wa complete. The great state OF New Y ork IS an
err lphac illustration OF this fact. in the CITY Of
NJ Nv York, where millions of public money were
he Id by the o1icc-hoders, and prolusely dlstrbu-
tee by them, although the tories did not maintain

Lo ok also ut the states of Ohio, Indiana, Ken
tue ky, Michigan, Vermont, Connecticut, Massa-
CHI, lses, Western Pennsylvania, and divers others,
an, see what the voice of the farmers has done.
TIL ey are indeed the bone and sinew ofthe coun-
try the last sole and safe refuge of the institutions
OF liberty and sound government. Let no man
hei eaer doubt the virtue and intelligence of the
pc, ,ple. Though they may he long deluded and
de- ,eived by artful demagogues, yet they wl
.ntually perceive what is right, and when they
thus convinced, they will instantly proceed to
lress their own wrongs. This election has de
cid ed that free institutions can be maintained, IN
spi te of the croaking prophecies of the monaI-
CHI lsts of the old world. The problem, whether
or not people can govern themselves, is now for
ev ,r solved. And no present or future apprehen
so ms can shake the fast confidence OF the phiian
thr opst that such is an irrev' caty established SO
lut ion. Hail to the yeomanry OF free and intel
