WASHINGTON, Oct. 2

A dispatch to the N. Y. Tribune says
the rumored change in the Cabinet is regu-
lar canard, without particle Of foundation.
Numerous outsiders desire reconstruction
to serve their own interests, and want to sad
die the responsibility Of recent defeat on par
tioular individuals.
The President disavows giving any encour-
agement to those reports, ana il is known
that when a suggestion was made not long
ago, by which member might have retired
in certain contingency, be expressed and
emphasized his desire to preserve the unity OF
the Cabinet throughout his term-a Wish
which was concurrad in without descent. Any
separation now would be the signal Tor gen.
eral breakdown of the whole concern.
| These reports are rendered more absurd
1 by the fact that we are upon the eve OF SEES.
. sion of Congress when the budget IS, OF
/ course, preparing.
| The expectation is entertained that the pre-
sentation Of the Message will be followed by
an explosion from the Democratic side OF the
| House and Senate, as when Douglas assailed
/ Buchanan at the last session. IL the least
/ wayering be exhibited by the President re-
/ specting tho English bill, Toombs and Others
4 are determined to oastigate him. They art
anxious for rebellion anyhow, after having
] accomplished their objects.
i The Administration anticipated defeat 81
/ New York, and it's organs are instructed te
4 prepare for such result.
Senator Bigler, who is here, does not ad
nit any responsibility for the policy by whici
! the great defeat occurred in Pennsylvania

other influences than his. CLANCY Jones wa

webster Matched byn woman.

In the somewhat famous case or Mrs. Bodg-
ems will, which was tried in the supreme
court some years ago, Mr.. Webster appeared
as counsellor for the appellant. Mrs. Green-
ough, wife Of Rev. William Greenough, late
of West Newton, tall, straight, queenly-
looking woman, with n keen black eye--a
woman Of great self possession and decision
OF character, was called to thestand Is q wit
ness on the opposite side. Mr.. Webster,
at a glance, had the sagacity 50 foresee that
her testimony, il it contained anything OF i'm
portance, would have great weight with the
court and jury. He therefore resolved, il
possible, TO break her up. And when she
answ cred the fret question put to her, 81 be-
| lieye.n Webster roared out, .We don't want
TO hear what you believe, We want to hear
| what YOU known' Mrs. Greenough replied,
aThat's Just what l was about to say" and
/ went on with her testimony. And notwith-
standing his repeated efforts to disconcert
| her, she pursued the even tenor Of her way,
until Webster, becoming fearful Of the re-
/ suit, arose apparently in great agitation, aud
/ drawing out his large snuff box, thrust his
thumb and finger to the very bottom, and
carrying tha 'deep pinch" to both nostrils,
drew it up with gusto and next extracting
from lis pocket very large handkerchief,
which aowed 10 his feet as he brought it to
the front, he bowed his nose with report
Il that rang distinct and loud through the crowd.

The history Of parties furnishes no paral-
lei to the hypocrisy and deception ~ the
present Democratic party. By their Free
Trade policy having brought the country to
tho verge Of bankruptcy and ruin, now when
they hear in thunder tones the indignant
voice the beggared and starving operatives
throughout the land, AMI fearing that their
days Of misrule will soon BIO brought to n
close, they arc adopting their old tactics OF
fraud and deception, with the hope OF again
decelving tho honest yoomanry.
Many Of the journals, and numbers Of the
leading Democratic politicians, who were
until very lately openly declaring that there
should be no change in the tariff system, are
nov becoming the most ardent advocates Of
change. We think the people will soon
| forget The celebrated kaue letter, and the
| base fraud ef Polk, Dallas, md the tariff Of
4 1872.
The Alexandria Gazette remarks:

The Chambersburg Valley Spirit, one Of
she most ultra Democratic organs IN the Key
stone State, referring TO the late election,
SAYS;
When We are in for beating, we like just
such one as we got last week. We were
not tortured for DAVIS with conflicting reports
as to the result. Our hopes were not raised
at first. only to be disappointed at last. We
were not barbarously cut in pieces by slow
degrees. Like the Iiindoos who were blown
away from guns by the British in India, one
tremendous explosion put an end to our ng-
ony.
We can't tell exactly how much we are
beaten on the State ticket. We have paid
very little attention to the returns. Our op-
ponents having got the victory, we will leave
them the trouble Of adding up the figures.
We never had much taste for vulgar fractions,
and the fractional returns we have Of the
State election are about tho vulgarest we ever
saw.
| Before the election, We heard many OF our
i friends express the opinion that thrashing
! would do our party good. II they wereright
i an immense amount of good has been done

In conclusion, the Judge perverts and mis-
represents the object Of our reference to the
fact that the laws Of 1854 and '55 were WITH
out such certificate. lie Gays we quote this
Democratic precedent and rely upon it as au-
thoritv, though he can't see the force Of it,
Now what we relied upon as authority was
the action of the Supreme Court OF tho State
In enforcing the statutes OF 1854 and 20,
| notwithstanding the lack of certificate.
| If the Judges allusion to the "weli known
mercy Of the Gate'' was intended as an iron.
| ca thrust, we have ouly to say that he is the
/ last man who ought TO venture it. No mar
| has had more occasion for our mercy, and
| there is none toward whom we have beer
more forbearing. We have indeed followed
an old injunction intended for an entirely diff
/ ferent relation. We have,been "to his,faults
little blind, and to his virtues very kind; =
and we should not BIO at all surprised ii il
the future Judge Mason has occasion to re
call that fact with somewhat higher nppre
citation than be is disposed to give it at pres
ent.
