HON FRANCIS GRANGER.

The appointment of this distinguished statesman to
prominent place in the Cabinet of Gen. Harrison,
will be hailed with universal JOY by the Democratic
Anti-masonic party Of our Union. While we candid
" avow that preferences in favor of Thaddeus
Stevens Esq, free to confess that no other APP
pontnent could have reconced us to the exclusion OF
our State from the honorable station. But, Mr.
Granger has been long avorite with the people OF
Pennsylvania and hearty support was yielded to
him in 1885, when running for the Vice Presidency,
that almost view him of us and next to our
own citizen, none other could have been selected TO
whom cordial support will be extended. One OF
the original friends of Gen Harrison, and prominent
leader of that party, whose pure principles, and
bending frmness, broke downthe overwhelming power
of Jacks onism in New York and Pennsy vania asso-
ciated in feeling and identified in interest with large
portion of population, and possessed Of every
qusite to grace official station, it would indeed be pass
ing strange were not his appointment received with
entire appreciation We repeat; next to Mr.. Stevens
the selection of Mr. Granger meets the views and
wishes Of the democracy of the Keystone State.

We NAV safely congratulate the friends of the Pre-
sdent elect on the selection of his confidential advi
sers. The gigantic intellect Of Webster-the indo-
mtable energy of Ewing-the Independence and firm
ness Of Be-the courtesy, ability, and industry OF
Granger and the distinguished legal character and
profosnd Judicial knowledge Of Crttenden are ample
guarantees to the country for faithful intelligent,
and patriotic course of administration. Mr.. Badger,
the gentleman said tobe selected for the Secretary OF he
Navy comes fresh from the ranks Of the people,
and the iudcious choice made of his colleague Is full
warrant for his capacity for the station In the
new Postmaster General our readers will recognise
their candidate for Vice President in ls36-a fasoite
son OF the Empire State often elevated by his fellow
citizens TO a seat in Congress- which he now occupies
and will no doubt prove of the most useful coun
ciors he has been one OF the hrmest iriends Oh
General Harrison. Under these circumstances we
are strenpthened in confidence that the new adj
ministration will consult the hes. interests of the
try in its progress and will do all that human wisdom
-enlightened Judgment, and disnerested PATRIOTISM,
can accomplish towards the restoration of the purity Of
the Government-the re-establishment of sound policy
and the revival Of the prosperity ofthe nation"
From, the Louisville Journal
The annunciation that Mr. Webster takes the office
of Secretary of State has given to the whole country

THE NEW CABINET.


Very great satisfaction appears to prevail among the
friends OF the Administration with General Har
rsons selections for Heads of Departments The old
hero has shown wisdom in his arrangements than
has been exhibited in his behalf by the-thousand- and
one" kind friends who have proposed Cabinets for
him. The West and the South have sometimes been
too intimate for the best good of the NoRTH-he glo
rious NORTH which gave independence to the whole
country and prosperity TO it ever since. But General
Harrison, though Western has a heart big
enough and vision wide enough TO encompass the
whole country. He does not select his first officer
from his own ncighborhood, but turns this way, bid
ding the mighty Daniel Of the North to come forth
For Secretary Of the Treasury, he looks TO the West
and Ewing is called The Great Empire State cannot
be overlooked, and Granger is selected. For South
ern member Of his Cabinet he looks not among the
fiery zeaots and erralic politicians of the extreme
South but to old staid and sober North Carolina
and brings forth man, whose voluntary scclusion
had kept his modest worth and commanding talents
comparatively hid from the of the people beyond
the State in which those talents have been employed
1t appears to be conceded all hands that Gen Har-
rison has been extremely fortunate in finding such
man George f. Badger, (and in finding him in
North Carolina too) for Secretary of the Navy. The
South west Is ably represented in the persons of John
Bell and John j. Crittendcn--both able and honest
men. Here then we have three members of the Cab

BY the above selection Of Gen Harrison's Cabinet
will be seen the return Pcnnsylvania-the State in
which he first named for the Presidency the State
which first nominated him, and to which, more than
to any other all other States he is indebted for his
nomination by the National Convention--has re-
ccved for her friendship for him when his prospects
almost hopeless. This is the gratitude shown
to the true hearts and firm hands which adhered to
him through veal and through wo, and sacrificed al
most every thing to his interests Perhaps Pennsy-
vania may still continue to merit her fauering cha
racter of humble and unambtious, under this
glcct similar to that which won it for her-perhaps
she may continue meekly to fight under the banner Of
the victorious captain without hazarding the harmony
OF the victors by claiming any Of the advantages of
victory.
The Cabinet, far as we know the materials which
compose it, is able one, aud we have no doubt will
be popular and efficient. Ofthe Secretary the Ma
