We heard, this morn ny, the partieulafs Of
case that is revolving in many particulars.
They are these Robert Curry, Revolution
ary soldier, has for some time occupied an
old frame house on Hamilton Road, near the
Mohawk canal bridge, in the Twelfth Ward.
Two step-daughters and a boy resided with
him. For some weeks they have been iu des-
titute circumstances, and at times without
the neeessarieS OF life. su.lg o,al1..
The old veteran Is said 70 have been one
hundred and two years old, having been
born In Little York, Pennsy 4Sahia, in the
year 1888. At the age Of thirteen be was
drummer boy in the Continental srmy, and
served through the war of the ReTolutiOn--
He came to Cincinnati in the year 1916, and
has resided here ever since, His health, gem
orally, has been good, but the suffering con-
dition of his little family, depTiYing him even
Of ordinary comforts in his old age ne de-
parted this life on Tuesday night. .r
His death was reported to the neighbors,
but none even deigned TO call. The family
wers without the means Of burial, or even
to prepare the body of the veteran for the
grave. No one rendered assistance, and even
some who were applied to refused it. The
consequence was that it lay undisturbed un-
Ill last evening, when Lieutenant Williams,
Of the Northern Police District heard of it,
and Immediately visited the premises. o gn.
Officer Williams called to his assistance
gatehman Conger, and the two, with their
own hands prepared the corpse for burial. A
coffin was procured from the authorities, and
this morning the old soldier was borne to his
laat resting Ylaca TIl1n, iII,ynadista .nAighbor-
hood has always borne q hard name, but
these incidents indicate that the people out
there are little better than heathens.

A Cabinet Observation-Disclosures First on

the List ll @
The report has become general, that Mr..
Lincoln has intimsted to Mr.. Bates that he
will invite him to accept the Office of Secre-
/ tary Of the Interior. We have the permission
| both of Mr. Lincoln and Mr. Bates to say,
that the latter viii occupy a seat in the new
/ Cabinet, assuming, asw think we may safe
/ " do, that the Senate viii ratity bis nomina-
| ton. Il IS not however definitely settled
which department will be assigned to our
worthy ana patriotic fellow-citizen Of ST.
| Louis. As citizens oi Missouri and lovers OF
the Union, we make this announcement with
sentiments of gratitude and pride. The
President elect, in selecting the living corner
stones of his Administration, makes the first
selection from this State. In selecting Ed
ward Bates, be gives q pledge to the whole
country, of the character which he has re-
solved to inapaft to his Administration and
policy. Actions, it is said, speak louder than
words. and hence the faet'Whieh we publish
this morning, viii be regarded as an infallible
sign of Mr.. Lincoln's purposes. We may call
| these purposes by two. Words-conseTvaUism
and Union. II designs in any way inimicA
TO the South were entertained, Mr.. Bates
the new Administration; and if by some in
conceivable bfunder he were selected to aid
IN carrying out such a policy, we need hard
" say that be would peremptorilyy reject the
offer. A full, free and candid Interchange Of
sentiments and opinions took place between
both gentlemen, and the result we ara hap
py 10 state, is mutually satisfactory. Their
unanimity Is the basis Of the important re-
lation which Mr.. Bates is to bear to Mr.. Lin
coins Administration. Ia "a -ass.lsft.I.
The fact is pregnant with another impoT-
tant lesson. The Union viii not be dissolved
during the four years commencing on the 4th
of March, unless all the legitimate powers
which the Government shall be able to ex-
ercise, shall prove inadequate to avert the
calamity. Mr.. lincoln and his coadjutors in
the Cabinet will enter Office with the resolu-
ton Of preserving the Union atan hazaFds.-
This will doubtless snrsge the traitors sllthe
more, but it viii at the same time give asense
Of confidence to t4e great body Of the people
South as well as North. There Is little dan
ger that the boundaries Of the Republic will
be narrowed during Mr. Lincolnls term.

void of ell power to award due merit to the

Of the proposed compromises; that Of the N.

IS in addition to compeusating masters for

The Tribune should not forget 70 give cred
it to John Hutchins, the worthy successor of

instructing the Committee Of thirty-three to
inquire what legislation is necessary to pro-
