THE CABTNEr.--No,hing seems to be
known as to who will compose the Cabinet
of Gen. Pierce. Which of the great ag-
gregate of factions which elected General
Pierce, shall have places in the Cabinet,
seems to be the great question. All cannot
and if they could, it is not likely that they
could agree upon any one measure. Should
Gen. Pierce conclude to 60 in honestly for
the welfare of the whole people, he would
probably disappoint the whole of them--but
the people would sustain him. "Nous
verrons," as old father Richie would say.

PUBLISHING THE LAWS.

One of the most contemplate things of
this most contemplate Of all contemplate
Legislatures, was transacted on last week
The Legislature had previously received an
invitation to attend frolic at GAINESVILLE, and
as their time would cost the State some
six or seven hundred dollars, it would seem
that they looked around to see what
they could do as an Offset to this waste of the
public money. They had already created a
State and Judicial AriSiocracy,by voting high
salaries to the officers-they had voted them
selves and their subordinates four dollars per
day, while they were doing comparatively
nothing for it. These salaries, of course, it
would not do to touch. 1t would not do
even to vote that they would not receive
their four dollars per day, for the time
they were off on the frolic. What then was
to be done! The amount must be saved
somehow. In looking around, they found the
editors of Ohio, of all parties, had come to
conclusion that this Legislature had not
monopolized all the wisdom of the State
some of them had even mad the boldness to
say SO. Here, then, was fair opportunity
to save the amount wasted by the Legis-
lature-and as the printers were only
mechanics, and did not belong to the Aris-
tocracy, the House ordered bill to be en-
crossed, reducing the price Of publishing the
Laos from seuenty.fue, to fifty cents per Moas-
and ems: and leave it to the local authorities
whether they shall be published at that,
The rule among tyrants is, and always
has been, high salaries for the Aristocracy.
and low wages for Laborers. Whether the
Mechanics and Laborers of Ohio will submit
to this course Of things, remains to be seen
Whether the people of Ohio will submit to
the tyranny of being held responsible for
their actions under Laws, Of the provisions of
which they have not the means of knowing, is
to be decided in the future. We much mis-
take the spirit of the mechanics and laborers,
of the people at large, if they do not resent
this insult to the laborers of Ohio.
We have spoken of this Legislature freely,
heretofore, and we shall continue to do so.
They may think they will be able to crush
the Local papers, which tell the people of
their misdongs, but they should recollect
that printers are hard to crush They can
and do live on less than almost any o,her
class of people, and are poorer paid than any
other class. We trust, the local press will
last at least long enough to shout victory
when the people have consigned this Legis.
lature to that position they SO richly merit
a position SO infinitely beneath contempt, that
a forty foot pole would not reach them by q
thousand miles. .a l.

PRESIDENTIAL VoTE.--At the late election
Gen. Scott received 1899 more votes than
Gen. Taylor, $4,000 more than Mr.. Polk, and
9s,8l2 more than Gen. Harrison. And yet
there are those who point to that election as
evidence that the Whig party has not its for
mer strength. Mr.. Pierce was elected by
combination of parties, antagonistic in their
sentiments, and wholly incapable of harmoni-
Gus action. The truth is, the Wing party is
this day stronger than it ever was before, and
its defeat, under the circumstances, should dis
hearten no true Wing. Their measures are
calculated to advance the true interests of the
country, and must ultimately be adopted.
The Wings are now stronger than any single
party in the nation.

SPLITTING ON THE PLATFORM AND
SUPPORTING THE CANDIDATE.

The Freesoilers made good deal of sharp
talk against the Wings last year, because
some of them supported the candidates and
rejected the platform. DR.. BAILEY, of the
National Era, was among those who pro-
claimed the thing to be inconsistent. Now,
the saddle is on the other horse. The direct
taxation part of the Ohio "Independent De-
mocracy" platform was protested against by
a strong minority, who do not believe in it.
The question is, of course, the same as it was
with certain class of Wings last year. Can
they, with propriety, support the candidates
and reject the platform! Let us hear the
same Dr. BAILEY on that point:
GAS to the free trade, doctrine, what harm can
there be in its avowal, if the majority of a
party really believes in it! Some members
of the Ohio Convention were opposed to it..
After an animated debate, they submitted the
question to the test of a vote, which showed
tina: the majority were for free trade. But
the resolves ofa majority express ITS views,
without binding the judgment or conscience
of minority. This can still hold its own
opinions on the subject of free trade, and act
upon them, without therefore separating from
the majority on other subjects, on which there
Is agreement. The pracrioc OF smothering
opinions in cur parties and conventions, for
the sake of harmony and peace, is unmanly
and short-sighted, if not dishonest. 1t has
always been the vice of the two old parties,
and has been the parent of corrupt evasions
and compromises. A party of real principle
and progress should scorn this cowardy poll
cy."
Surely Freesoilers are saints! They are
the only consistent and concientious politi-
clans in the worl4! What resplendent halo
of cant and .funkyism surrounds their benig.
nant and pious heads!-O. s. Journal.

About 6 o'clock last evening, Edward II -.
Fuller, who, in company with his father, was
part proprietor of the City Hotel and Irving
House, but more recently clerk in the Cen
sus Office, was shot at the National Hotel
by Jas. w. Schaumberg, formerly Of U. s.
Dragons. The ball penetrated his right
side and is probably fatal. schaumberg was
committed to Jail. The difficulty had existed
a long time, owing to Schaumberg's indebted
ness to Fuller; the immediate cause was the
posting up of placards by Fuller pronounc-
ing Schaumberg a,, coward and swind!er.
