(Frou the N. 7. Times Be- ward Republican ofgan)
Il yssessdsy.l
Change IL the Cahiset...Teaurc Of o..
The following paragraph appears in
tine telegraphic correspondence nom
Washington
"The committee Of gentlemen from
Iowa, the East, and New York, who
were anxious to effect changes in the
Cabinet, have gone back again, with a
yery distinct distrust that they have
failed in their mission. The fact u.s.
that when they we're requested TO make
specific objections to. Gen. Cameron,
they we're forced to admit that they
knew nothing. They could not name a
single act of his to which exceptions
could be made, and 60 made but feeble
impression upon the President, except
that he was driven to the conclusion that
they each had a good-sIzed axe to grind. !"
We do not believe that the President
would do the gentlemen in question the
gross injustice Of supposing them to be
governed by interested motives in the
representations they have made concern
ing changes in the Cabinet. If he does
inpute to them any such selfish pur-
pose, he must do violence to his own
sense Of propriety, as well as evince
very great ignorance of the character Of
the parties concerned.
Nor can we regard 1t as probable that
he expected them to file specific char
ges against Mr.. Cameron, or any other
member of his Cabinet-or to exact
conviction offences as the only ground
of belief that his Administration would
gain strength by change of members.
Such theory as this would put Gov
ernment on much lower basis than it
has hitherto been supposed to have. Mr..
Lincoln does not preside over Coult OF
Sessions, nor is conviction OF larceny,
or burglary, or any other offence, neces-
sary to prove the relative untitness Of a
man for seat in bis Cabiuet. In Eng.
land, if Ministry loses the confidence
Of the people, it instantly resigns. That
confidence, in its ability as well as its
integrity, is felt to be absolutely essen
tial to its proper conduct of public at
fairs.
If this be so In England, it is much
more so here. Ours is peculiarly gov
eminent of the people. Every act of
administration derives its strength and
power from their approval. And this is
pre-eminently the case in time of war,
,che,a The Goyernment must rely ch0lly
and erclusiyely ON the support of the
people for the means md the spirit to
nuke tue s0ar efective. If a cabinet Of
ticer, charged with the conduct of a
great department, loses the confidence
Of the public-we care not whether he
deserves to lose it or not-his usefulness
IS gone. He cannot meet the response
bilities which devolvc upon him. And
if his sense of selfrespect, and bis re-
gard for the public welfare, are as keen
as those of a man in snch place should
be, he would not hold the post an hour
on such terms.

We learn from the Chicago Journal
the following particulars Of . disgraoe-
tai riot at McGregor on the Let inst;
There was qnite . riot yesterday ct
McGregor's Landing, above here In
Iowa. The laborsrs on the North Iowa
Railroad have been unable to obtain
their pay for some time, and they have
been threatening vengeance for some
time upiess they received it. Some
time since one OF the contractors went
east, IS he said, after money to pay the
men, but he came back without any.
One Of the contractors, named Thomp-
son, who is said to be rich, was sur.
rounded on Saturday by party OF
Irishmen, who would have taken his
life, had be not made them some good
promises. They afterwards held a con-
sultation and swore they would take
Thompson's life. They yesterday placed
about 200 on the hills, each eide OF the
town, to prevent his escape, and about
fifty more started for his hotel, to take
him out. The forcmen Of the men en-
deavored to check them, when they
commenced to throw stones and use
their shillahlas, with which they were
armed. One man was stabbed and an
other knocked down with club, when
the Mayor interfered. He rushed into
the infuriated mob, taking their sticks
from them and with the Marshal and
the help Of some Of the citizens, for the
time being quelled the disturbance. In
a few minutes, however, the mob made
for the American Hotel, where Thomp-
son stopped, and with ye'ls OF "take
him out ~ "kill him - undertook TO
freak in; but Mayor Hobart was ahead
Of them, and prevented the mob from
breaking 10. The citizens then inter
fcrcd and the mob quoted down, but
still hung around in small knots, threat
cning to take him in the evening or to-
day. Another row is expected to-day.
Several arrests have been made, and
precautions are being taken to prevent
another outbreak. Mayor Hobart de-
serves great praise for the prompt man
ncr in which he quelled the riot. II
the men are not paid today, they will
no doubt make another attempt to take
Thompson's lite. The Hotel is watched,
so that it will be impossible for him to
escape. We learn that the men have
had all but one months pay, and We
are told that some Of the citizens OF
McGregor's Landing encouraged the
men to commence the riot, hoping to
prevent the building of the road there
by, the reason being that as it starts from
upper McGregor, it will injure the now
fourishing business Of their town very
materially.
