- The You've GUARD intend giving at
Military and Civic Ball in Lafayette Hall on tho
22d inst. in honor Of the birth day of WASHING
TON. From the known gallantry and Eberality
of the corps, we are led to believe that the bull
will be every way worthy of the occasion.
We are glad to perceive that entertai nments OF
this kind gotten up under the auspices of our vol
unteeer corps, are becoming quite popular. The
ball given by the Montgomery Guards was wei
attend and passed off in the finest manner. The
caterer on that occasion, MIR. p. c. KIMBRoUGH)
surpassed himself. Notwithstanding the company
was somewhat larger than anticipated, there was
no deficiency in any one OF the elements of en-
joyment. The Virginia Rifles, too, subsequent
ly gave ball which also passed off admirably :.
the dancing was spirited and the entertainment
good. We were pleased to at both balls
number of gentlemen present in uniform, and
trust that all OCCASION, of the kind in future the
members of all the volunteer corps will make it n
point to attend in the uniform Of their respective
companies. Besides adding vastly to the witche-
ry of the scene, their presence in uniform shows
that proper esprit de corps animates the volun-
teer regiment. Brethren in arms, let them be
likewise brethren on festal occasions. On the
evening ofthe 22d, therefore, we shall be greatly
disappointed if single volunteer corps shall be
unrepresented at the "Young Guards Ball."

THE CABINET.

A correspondent of the Enquirer, writing on
the subject of the Cabinet, says:
The States Rights, Union aud Free Sol
Democrats, constitute three we'll known divisions
| of the Democratic party. There is bitter fee =
ing of hostility. which truth will not allow us to
disguise, existing between these three divisions.
In all sections of the country this feeling is open
| ly manifested. We find, at the South, the
/ States Rights party opposing the Union division
| with more bitterness and hostility. than is ex-
hibited by them towards their common oppon-
ents, the Wings What is true of the States
Rights party of the South, is equally true of the
Free Soil party of the North. Any attempt,
therefore, to form harmonious cabnet-a eabi-
net that will act in concert for the best interest
OF the party and of the country, by uniting men
OF these different opposing sections-must prove
abortive, as we have every reason to believe
the bitter experience Of the President elect has
proven.
The writer then goes on to argue that nation
al and harmonious cabinet cannot be formed from
the Free Soil Or States Rights sections of the
party, either singly or combined, and therefore
recommends that the members of the new ad-
ADMINISTRATION be taken exclusively from the Union
division of the Democracy. The material for
such cabinet (he says) can be found in every
find Dickinson and Buchanan-in the West
Cass and Douglas--in the South a Foote, a
Bayly, Downs and Cobb and many other good
and true men. ..-
Again:
From the preceding suggestions would not
have 1t inferred that am hostile to either the
States Rights the Free Soil portion of the
party. They were with us in the battle, and [
desire they shalt receive, 10 the hour of victory
their just and full proportion of it's honors Are
there not other positions of equal honor and emo-
ument with those of the cabinet appointments
The missions to England, France, mud so on. have
ever been regarded as posts of the highest honor
under our government and have been coveted by
the most talented aad ambitious men of the land.
And liberal proportion of these positions would
be readily assigned by the whole country to the
members of the States Right and Free Soil
Parties.
1t thus appears that Freesoilism is now openly
recognized by Southern Democrats as a distinct
and active element of Democracy. The Freesoil
Democrats, according to this writer, constitute
one of the three grand divisions of the Democratic
| party. Did Democratic newspapers and orators
tethe Southern people this during the last Pre-
| sidentia canvass! Did they not contend that the
Democratic platform had been accepted by tn Q
whole party, aud that Freesoism had been swa-
lowed up in Democracy! What Democ ratio
journal or speaker would then have ventured to
affirm, as this writer in the Enquirer now does
that he was mot hostile to the Freesoi portion of
the party and that he desired they should re-
ceive in the hour of victory their fuland just pro-
| portion of its honors?

THE WHARvES AT ROCKETS

The recent pleasant weather has sensibly i'm
proved the condition of the wharves; business is
again ..revivng no shoes err boots have been re-
Gently lost, and no wagons or carts stalled, in pass
ing from Water street to the shipping. Our old
friend, the Deputy Collector is again in fine
spirits, we are glad to learn, Notwithstanding the
ldes OF March are close upon us. By the bye,
1t is limited about Rockets that some of his
friends intend making quite n spirited appeal in
his behalf, shortly after his decapiaton by the
by the powers that are to be. But, more of this
anon.
We understand take plea sure in impart-
ing the information-that the Commissioners of
Streets generally repaired to Rockets one fine
Gay last week, for the purpose of examining into
and devising plans to remedy the evils so loudly
and so justly complained of by shippers and mer-
chants. After full consultation, we understand
they determined upon plan, which, if faithfully
carried out aud properly executed, will unques-
tionably remedy the grievances complained of
and greatly facilitate business. The plan is this
10 open new street from the ship lock to Gill
les Creek-parael with Water street; to fill up,
grade and pave the avenues or streets leading to
the wharves, and to compel the owners of real
estate lying between the new street and
the river to fill up, grade and otherwise im-
prove their property. The new stree, will
be provided with dish-gutters capable of re-
ceiying and discharging into Glie's Greek all the
water which may fall during the heaviest rains
on the strip of land lying between Rockets street
and the river. This improvement, it seems to
US, would remedy all exising defects; and as the
owners Of property through which the proposed
new street will run, appear willing voluntarily to
surrender the fright of way" we trust the
Council will at once authorize the improvement to
be made.
