WASHINGTON Oct. Al.

Some of The New York and other North.
ern papers strongly insist upon the necessi.
~ Of a change of the Cabinet. The New
York Tribune remarks, Significantly, in
reference TO The dissatisfaction of the wings.
that, ito say that Gen. Taylor does NOT
know when he is i'll served, or dare nor
apply The obvious remedy, is to charge
him with gross incapacity and pusilauimi>
ty." But the truth is, il is we'll known
here, that Gen. Taylo is obstinate in his
parIialrirs, and that he will not listen t5
any representations against any one of bis
Cabinet. There is nor the slightest rea-
son TO believe that Gen. Taylor is dissa,-
istied with anyi one of hisi Cabinet, or
that he will request them to 90 out as q
unit, or Otherwise. The Tribune must.
therefore, condemn him for mol knowing
when nc is i'll served. The wings do NOT
pretend. however, 10 find much laul, with
the Cabinet, except on the score of the
distribution of Offices
Some Of the Northern papers scour the
idea that the wings will, in any conliugen-
cy. go for Mr. Holmes for Speaker, on
account of his being Taylor democrat:
The Tribune says that Mr.. Winlhrop's
chance will be the best-whereby it mealfs
that i,1r. Winthrop is their choice. Every
one knows that Mr.. Winthrop, however
great his merits, cannot, with a majority
of five democrats against him, aud with
five free soil wings againsthim, be elected
The game is to bring the Northern wings,
and the Northern democrats, also, to the
support Of free soil Speakers-ei,her
Preston King or David Wilmot, and,
indeed, it will no: be very easy 10 defect
this intrigue.
The article, in The London Times; of The

precision, tie position Of the British go
verument on The question, and offers alt
that we need ask, to wit, an amicable
arrangement between the powers, though

PUBLIC NIGnr ScuooLs.-lt is proba-
bly, not known to many of our worthy
readers lha, there are public night schools
IN New Orleans. The Crescent referring
TO the subject, says:
THE Public Night Schools for NUM-
cipality No. 2 will reopen next Monday.
1t is not sufficiently understood that these
schools are part of the Public School sys-
lem. They were Instituted for the i'm
porlani purpose of al1ordiug the opporlu-
nifty for instruction to apprentices and other
lads, whose occupations do not. allow
then: TO attend The day schools. In this
view they are Of great interest, and their
character should be better understood than
il seems to be.
Last year 196 pupils attended, large
number in itself, but not third Of the
number that could be secured, and should
be secured, and should be sent by their
parents or friends. We direct attention
particularly 10 this notice, and recommend
all who feel proper interest in this most
useful institution TO take pains to make
known lis advantages. that as many as
possible may be benefited by them-re-
fleeing the benefit, TOO, upon the com mu-
ty of which they are 10 be members"
