MONDAY MORNING, DECEMBER 20. 1852
General Pierce's Cabinet.
WASHIN TO N:

Seherul fIcrcc's CABINET.
The Concord New Hampshire) Patriot.
published in the immediate vicinity of General
PIERcE's residence, and edited by a gen
tleman on whom he has recently conferred a
mark of personal favor and confidence, has an
article on the construction of the new Cabinet
which bears internal evidence of authority
1t announces that the attempts now being made
by papers and individuals to press particular
parties upon General PIERCE's attention, will
prove Intellectual the President elect having
it says-a full sense Of h is responsibility.
and full determination to Judge for himself
in regard to the men who shall be called to
his council. The States are reminded that
all cannot be represented in the Cabinet, and
that the supposed claims of sections or per
sons must yield to other considerations. On
two other important points the Patriot speaks
with great expctness. 1t declares that no
man will be prescribed because he has in past
times belonged to particular sections of the
Democratic party; and that the circumstance
Of having belonged to previous Democratic
Administration will not be a reason for accept
ing or rejecting any one.

about half mile above the Falls, and pass directly
through the village at the Falls, and empty, of
