~ The remarks below, in relation
10 the Cabinet are from the New Or.
leans Dslia,a paper Of as strong Demo.
cratic Ieanings a any in the country:
The CABINET the Telegraph doesn't lie
as il generally does, the Cabinet is made up, al
last. 1t consists, first OF Daniel Webster fol
Secretary OfState. There we might STOP
Old Dan has brain enough for a whole Admin
istratiOn. He is head and body enough; il i.
not of much consequence who makes up the
tail. But still, the balance Of the Cabinet en-
braces quite a respectable show of talents and
experience, though Of some rather dlscrepanl
political characters. There is Tom Corwin fol
the Treasury. What talent Corwin ever dis,
played for finance, we think will puzzle his
most intimate friend to discover. He is a
splendid natural orator, quite cultivated, and
well read-withai, a man Of the people and a
good, hearty, jovial fellow, who, by native wit
and energy, has sprung from the position Of
a wagon boy (the Bulletin will no doubt con-
tradiei this fact, and get some member Of the
faculty to produce a certificate thai such dam :
ming proofs OfhumiIity are Falsely into a high
place among the great men of the land. Tom
has made several very ra1ghty Speeches
against the south, and during the war, fet out
a remark about what he would do with the
Americans who invaded his country if no were
a Mexican, which obtained him the honor of
a burning efigy together with q large share Of
that sort Of abuse which helps a man along
prodigiohsly in the political world. Corwinis
considered one of the strongest and most Ill
ira ofthe AbolitiohisIs in congress, but there
has always been a lurking humor and DON'T
careativeness in his manner Of treating the
subject, that most people think that his aboIi-
ton feeling is merely assumed-adopted as a
good hobby for the nohce, and that he will
never prove a very dangerous man in an emer-
gency. He is too good natured man for that
He is the very a%ntipode Of your cynical, bigot-
ed coIdblooded, designing Stewards and Cid
dings. There is one striking peculiarly about
Corwin. Though a man OF great intelligence
and information, and q great natural orator, he
speaks less than any man in congress. Gov.
Crittenden, for Attorney Gen'l, will be s~atisfac-
tory to every body. OfGov. Graham, for the
Navy, we have spoken before. Mr.. Bates, OF
Missouri, for the War department., will prove
we think, a good appolntment. 1t IS a long
since Missouri had a cabinet appointment,
and she is becoming a very Important State,
especially to the wings, who, in the present
state of the democracy, have a fair
chance of carrying the State. Mr.. Bates is
one Of THE abiest men in the West. He wasl
usually Pitted by the Wings OF Missouri against
Benton, of the Democrats. Mr.. Pearce,
Tor the Department Of the Interior, is at present
Senator from Maryland. His %reriraey will no
doubt recall Reverdy Johnson to his pnst in the
Senate. The Post Office has doubtless been
to Prescott Hall, this is a mistake; Ma
han X. Hall is the man, of New York, a very
able and accomplished man.
The Cabinet thus made up; is decidedly SUI,
'erior TO that upon which we commented a
days ago. 1t is composed of several gen
lemen OF h%rst>rate abilities. We are every
lay more aud more impressed with the neces-
ity of brains in the administration of the affairs
