The New York Union Committee recommends
"a thorough rurging of the Cabinet, the Army

calls for ''monster meeting" Of cihzens,.

The Herald charges to the Cabinet officers and
to the Senator's and congressman who have
urged on premature and disastrous move
nents," the defeats Of big Bethel, Vienna
and Bull Rum" and asserts that the attempt
to abolitionize the INVASION will divide and de-
moralize the Northern troops. On the other
hand, the Tribune also berates the Cabinet,
but it considers abolitionizlng the movement
the very thing for its success. The Republi-
cans among themselves are by no means
band of brothers. The Herald Of the Goth,
says:
POPULAR IsDi@SArIoS AGAINST THE CABINET.
The news of he late lost battle has pro-
duCed very vi fay orabie impression on the
public mind against the Government and the
military authorizes. Last evening the Re-
rubncans held caucus meetings IN various
sections OF the city, al which The whole sub
ect WAS discussed, and the most b. tier
pressions OF Indignation uttered against the
Cabinet tor permitting the army u fall into
the rebel trap At MANASSAS j Junction. 1t was

and il Was % doubt owing 10 their wholesome

Iurs he the retreatlng Federal forces in their
confusion and disorder, cut them Oft from

We're various ways o; getting to Richmond
without gong through ManaSs Is junction,

| Fessenoen, Sumner, Lovejoy aud Chandler,
| aud being Iudnced by their clamCrs to order 8
| premature advance upon Richmond, which
| has SO diststrously resulted IN the sacrifice

the present Cabinet are unrt for their posi-

new cabinet:

John G.. Fremont, OF California, Secretary
| Of War
Cornelius Vanderbilt, of New York, Secre-

In another article the Reraid assas the
army oticers, and says that the disaster
was owing to their nexperienee and incompe-
| tency. AT the same time it pays rs emphatic
a compliment TO Tie Confederate officers.
At the meeting Of the Union Defence Com
mittee," above referred to, Mr.. MOSES GRIN
NELL had the assurance 10 say that I" the re-
pulse of the Unions arms was not thing

Secretary of War Of not receiving troops whom
there might have been an overwhelming force
at Washington, and said there were now over
ten or twelve regiments which could be got
ready ard dispatched to Washington in as
many days Captain MARSHALL, another of
the speakers, Denounced the Secretary Of the
Navy for not closing the ports, and made the
remarkable admission " There is, in truth
no real blockade of the ports at this moment
Gen. WE7NoRE humanely expressed the
opinion that d" any man who would counsel
anything but the utter subjugatiOn of the
rebels should be hanged"
The Herald, Of the 2tth, comes out against
the same papers Recommendation on the oath,
Of a change in the Cabinet. 1t says Old ABE
has "put down his foot against any change
in the Cabinet, and seems, on the whole, 10
think that ne is right. 1t intimates that he is
himself to blame, and has been acting under
the malign influences of the Tribune and Times
1t says: "the only bond Of adhesion among
the various party elements enlisted in our he
roic armies is the glorious bond of the Union ,
In another article, it says

The President, the Cabinet the military ad
visers of the Government /, and the Congress
siCnal bus bodies aud assistant advisers are
all III a fiutter before the storm OF popular in
dignation excited by the gross bluuGer of the

Gle which, If the Cccas ion Of il were not so Sc
rious, would shake the whole nation with
laughter. Each shouts out his innocence of

his next neighbor. CougresSmen retail mi.

Cabinet officers button hole reporters with
desperate zeal The whole affair is the sub.

Here is a choice Bit the design of which is
