GEN. TAyLoR's CABNEr-Specula,ion is
already busy on the subject of Gen. Taylor's
Cabinet, and some of the New York papers
are beginning TO call each other hard names
because they cannot agree upon the men
when the factis, we presume, that Gen. Taylor
does not know as yet who he will select as his
advisers in the administration Of the govern
ment. All readily concede, howevefT tha, Mr..
Crittenden Of Key, is the man of all others
for Secretary of State. The others are more
uncertain but as there is plenty of mdtsriel
in the country we apprehend there will be
more difficulty in deciding whom to omi, than
whom to select. Either Evans Of Me-, or
Davis Of Mass, would make good head OF
the Treasury Butler Of Ca, or Cost Johnson
of Nd, would shine in tire Navy Department (;
Rives of Va. OF Bell Of Tenn, would like the
War Department; Choate of Mass, Sargent $.
Prentiss., of Miss, or Seward Of N. Y,
would either of them shine as Attorney Gen
eral. All we can say about it, is, that Old
lack will discriminate with keenness in the
selection of his legal advisers, We have no
doubt.
