4 he Cabinet.

| Yesterday the President submitted TO the Senate the
nomination OF a cabinet, which confirmed without
hesitation or dissent. The public had anticipated the
selection of the cabinet and before this it is known
throughout the Union that William l.. Marcy is Secre-
ary of State James Guthrie Secretary OF the Treasury
Robert McClelland. Secretary of the Interiors Jefferson
Davis. Secretary Of War; James c. Dobbin Secretary of
the Navy that James Campbell is Postmaster General
and Caleb Gushing Attorney General.
The enthusiastic appreciation which the country ac-
corded to the first official language of the President will
not be withheld from this, his first official act In what
ever relation the cabinet of President Pierce may be
viewed, the sagacy and popriey OF his selection
be apparent Whether in respect to the ability and fit
ness OF its individual members 10 the particular por
ton OF the conederacy which each may be supposed to
represent, the choice must be pronounced equally Judi
cious and admirable. New England and the sunny
Souh-he sea board and the great West-each has its
representative and champion the council-board The
country needs from that every member
of the cabinet possesses in full the requisite
qualification for his elevated and responsible position
Whatsoever guaranty of wise and successful admins
ation may be found in combination of the active en-
ergy of youth with the cautious wisdom of agein tried
paroism-in ripe experence-in long devotion 10 the
public servicen the sanction of high character, emf
nsn reputation and extensive nfuence-in safe counsel
and mature craftsmanship the country possesses in the
cabinet OF President Pierce If there be any man in the
cabinet whose is less known the public than tina,
Of others, it is for want OF opportunity, and Of ability
to win the highest distinction. Each member enjoys the
confidence of the country and before the lapse of four
years will achieve, if he does not possess repua-
ton for ability coexensive with the limits of the re-
public.
The anticpaons OF some interposed great difficulties
in the way of the construction OF satisfactory and CON-
petent cabinet, and there evil mnded prophets to
predict that President Pierce would be baked at the
threshold Of his administration. This imaginary obs,a-
Gle has been successfully sumouned and in the names
announced above have cabinet which is worthy OF
all confidence, and is obnoxious 10 candid objection
Thus, whether we look to the principles by which
President Pierce proposes 10 conduct the government
or the persons whom he has selected aid him in his
arduous and Momen,ous duties find every assurance
and guaranty of an efficient and brilliant adninstra-
ton. !.
In another column publish, from the Concord Pa
trio brief but and well-wrt,en biog aphy of
each member of the cabinet.
