"Thc universal question now is, what
will the Cabinet do! 1t was at first ex-
nse,ed the wonId Immediately resign.
Now it is said that they remain until res
ones,ed. or rather ordered to do so, to
throw the odium of their dismissal upon
tho President, Their friends say, that
thew represent the people more than he
does. as they were the choice of the man
chosen by the people, while he is the Ex-
ecn,iye incumben. by accident. The In
,e)Igencer, which is always deep and sly,
under an air which the weak and silly
mistake for candor, tells US, that the Cabi~
net NAV well differ from It's head, without
being called upon to resign; as if that
only were the question. But the true
question is this, shall gentlemen who were
not chosen by the President. and who are
among the leaders and friends OF the party
which now oppose and denounce him,
be forced upon him as his confidential adj
visers !-Shall they remain IN position
so false to themselves and 10 him, until
they are politely shown to the door !
These are problems which gentlemen and
those which associate with such, cannot be
at loss to decide 1t may be added, that
if General Harrison was chosen by the
ueople, his ministers were not. Every
President should be surrounded by men
of his choice and confidence. 1t is rather
hard tina. the President should be surround
ed with the creatures of Mr.. Clay. just as
Sir Robert Peel refuses TO Queen Victoria
the selection of her bed-c chamber women.
"Do YOU HEAR THAT BOYS! The
price of coffee, in anticipation Of the new
whig tariff. advanced two cents on the
round. in New York, week before last.
This advance will be doubled by the
time it reaches the log>cabin boys of the
west through the retail stores. What a
fine thing it is to have reform whig ad.
minisratlon to add Cooper cent, upon tea,
sugar, coffee. moiasses and salt. Well
they promised higher prices, and many
log cabin boy repeated the promise for
them. SO don't complain, but when you
have earned five dollars to purchase pro-
visions for your family, go 10 work duti-
fully, singing hurrah song for "Tippe-
canoe and Tyler too" aad earn one dol
lar more 10 add to the five to purchase
your sugar, coffee, salt, &c. So much for
whig reEormers, better times, and higher
prices
