1t will be recollected by our readers that imme-
dately after ofthe state elections last summer
we examined with particular care and atention the
state Of the presidential question, and stated posi-
lively, in several instances, that it would be one of
the closest contests which had ever taken place in
this country since the time Of Jefferson-that the
State OF New York would determine the election.

CABINET OF Mr.. Polk There are a great many
speculations just now about the Cabinet Of Mr..
Polk, and we have heard some facts mentioned
which give us an intimation of its probable
complexion. The first enquiry regards the person
who will be called on to fill the office Of Secretary
Of State. great many alledge that Mr.. Calhoun
will be retained, but this we think very doubtful
Others say that Andrew Stevenson, of Virginia,
will be the man. But the most rational guess we
have heard is that which points out General Cass,
Of Michigan. Immediately on the nomination Of
Mr.. Polk, it will be recolleced that General Cass
came out very frankly in his faver, and from this
circumstance, we have reason to believe that this
conjecture is very probable.
We also learn, from pretty good authority, that
there is probability of personal friend of General
Jackson going in 10 the Cabnet--we mean Andre "
J. Donaldson, his nephew, and who was his private
secretary during the last term of his presidency
We have reason to believe that such thing was
contemplated by General Jackson himself, and
should not be at all surprised if the gentleman in
question were to be selected to some post in the
Cabinet. He is now in Texas, but could be easily
recalled in case of his appointment.
Other rumors are afoat, but they are not Of suf
6clent importance to be mentioned just now The
present Cabinet will, Of course, resign on the ac-
cession Of Mr.. Polk, but many suppose, certainly In
our opinion. very slender grounds, that some Of
them will be retained. All, however, will be
known in few months.
