The Cabinet

The pressure for cabinet places and the
rivalry between competing interests, have
indnced Mr.. Lincoln to practice more than
ordinary reserve in announcing his inclna-
tions, because some form of political or other
objection is always urged against those in
dIcated as enjoying this partiality. It's
bot Improbable, therefore, that he may
decline to make any further selections
public until the 4th of March. The utmosL

representative man. His selection or omis.
sion will be considered as foreshadowiug. To

FoRT SuNrER.-Eyery few days We hear that
Fort Sumter is 10 be demolished by the brave
South Caroliniaus at certain time. Thattime
comes round, and then it is some other day in
the future when the courage and cbivalary Of
the Charleston troops are to vent themselves
on Sumter's walls. And thus it goes. Their
courage always oozes out at the fingers ends
when it comes to the test The fact is, we
don't believe the secessiouisls ever entertained
a serious design of attacking a fortified point
especially Sumter. They are very brave when
dismanlled forts and defeuccless navy yards are
TO be besieged. But they give we'll mounted
Columbiads, that are handled by skillful artl
lery-m wide berth.
