CITY OF WASHINGTON.
SUNDAY MORNING, FEB. is, is4o.
The next Cabinet.-semi-Om

We have nothing authoritative from its source
and important in It's results. the following annuncia-
ton in yesterday mornings National Intelligencer
CABINET ArroINrMENrs.-Numerous speculaiions have
been INDUCED in by the public press in regard TO the
probable composition of President Taylos cabinet and
amongst those distinguished wings who have been
signed, by of general consent, a place in the cabi-
net, is Governor Crittenden, OF Kentucky.
Knowing nothing ourselves of the of the Pres
dent elect have hazarded conjectures sub
ect quite satisfied that in good time the public would have
offered To il the of Il sound and able cabinet.
II. however, have been able to shed no light the
future who will compose the cabinet of President
Taylor, believe say to extent, who will
be of il and, this may crafty curiosity, and be
stated without nydiousness, we induced that
have believe that Mr. Crittenden has positive
ly declined accepting any cabinet appointment.
Hence it appears that notw,h standing the general
ports and the great confidence attached Them and the
intimate relations between the President elect and the
governor of Kentucky, Mr. Crttenden has positively
declined occupying any cabinet appointment" We had
understood few days ago. upon what we considered the
direct authority, that the General had written to
him. offering him carte blanche. But ii seems that he
has declined all cabinet appointments BY whatever mo-
ves he has been actuaed we are at some loss to con-
lecture; but the probability is that Mr. Crttenden was
unwilling 90 into the cabinet, with Mr.. Clay in the
Senate OF the United States 1t might have produced
embarrassing relation perhaps unpleasant issue, be-
tween the President and the senator But it is by no
means evidence Of any ascendency which MIR. Clay
may obtain in the counsels OF the administration, any
decided preference which Gen. Taylor may entertain for
Mr. Ciays leadershpAu contraire, we would infer.
But thing is certanhat Gen. Taylor is stripped OF
the services of of the coolest ables most expert
enced, and most popular statesmen in losing MIR. Crit
enden 1t will be loss not easily repaired. Ii was not
supposed that he to be Secretary OF State, but At
torney General; but now, Gen. T. cannot have him
him. nor his genius to assist him in any place in the
cabinet. All we know, then, is, that Mr.. CIttenden
does not go in but to who does go in, are as
much in a fog ever Who will constitute the
members OF the "sound and able cabinet" will continue
to constitute interesting problem for the speculation
Of the quanuncs. The next name, "by sort of uni
versal consent" is that of Mr. Clayton OF Delaware

We understand from the Washington correspondent OF
the New York Courier and Enquirer. that it is not pro-
posed to frame TARIFF bill at this session, because there
is not time enough left for the task ; and ii submitted,

teest in different States, convened here during the past
week. for the purpose of laying before the Committee of
Ways and Means variety of valuable information re-

by foreign manufacturers and their agents, and its opera

OF Massachusetts,, to prepare general report the sub

of the week. 1t will in the main, recommend the sub

ton of scale of moderate Duties sufficient to protect
American labor against the pauper competition of Eu-

If this information be correct may expect the pro-

Washington through their congressional organ, Mr.

raising upon the rest of the community We had hoped
too that the manufacturers would have been content to
