EX-SENATOR BENJAMIN ON HUMAN
PROPERTY.

There are two formulas, both prOpounded by
distinguished aud widely different men, which
laconically express the fact and the fallacy of
slayeholdng. property in man !" said DIR.
Charming, with his usual elegance, and more
than his usual yigor, "you might as well talk of
property in angels! !" On the other hand, Mr..
Clay, with the crisp and automatic breyity of a
lawyer, said: :" That is property which the law
makes property" which sufficiently would
settle the whole question: provided the lew could
make property Of whatever law-givers might
please to call by that name. If Mr. Clay lad
considered the matter philOsophicaly and not
passionately, he would have seen that, potent as
Senators and Representatives usually are, they
cannot control the forces and the facts Of Nature.
A law requiring all apple-trees to blossom in
October and to bear in March, though enacted
nemine eontradioents, and approved by a regiment
of governors, and declared TO be Christian
ordinance by score of synods, and sanctioned
as constitutional by whole benches of judges
would not put single pippin upon the boughs
or int the barrels in the specified month. When
Senator Benamin--we beg his pardon: we must
give him title Of which we suppose he is proud
when ex-senator Benjamin of Louisiana made
his recent dramatic display in the Chamber, to
the noisy and outrageous gee Of the galleries, he
talked of four billion dollars worth of men. which
gave his perCration rather a pecunary than a
pathetic tint. No Yankee, fresh from swops and
dicker, could have taken more kindly than Mr.
Benjamin did to the shilling side of the question.
Our property, our ravished property, our endan-
gered property-this was the burden Of his
Senatorial swan-song. He was indignant just as
farmer is indignant upon discovering his hem
house ravished-to all the craftsmanship con-
sistent with pervading sordidness did Mr.
Benjamin rise-to nothing higher and maner.
1t ia unfortunate for Dir. Benjamin that bis
idea of property is one which has never been
admitted by photographers, or logicians, or po-
litical economists. Property refers, not TO men,
but to things. Property, according to Worcester,
ia "the thing possessed" Property in law accord
ing TO Burril, cited by Worcester, is the un-
restricted and exclusive right to thing" The
ualty Of property ~ permanence. Acres do

he symbol Of all personal property, is said to

The seizure of Notifications and srsenas
throughout the South, it appears, is part OF
the secession programme. A dispatch from
Savannah informs us that the pretext that it
was necessary to take possession of the forts and
arsenal in that city, to prevent their falling into
the hands of the populace, is a mere subterfuge
The fact lie, the act was perpetrated to hasten
forward the secession movement in that State,
the people showing less interest in the treason
than suited the leading traitors. An attack on
the Federal capital is the common talk in
Savannah, and the possession of the forts and
arsenals in that section is regarded as necessary
for the purpose.

THE CABINET.

We have o little additional intelligence respect
ing the progress Of Mr.. LIncOln's efforts to
organize bis Cabinet, which will no doubt be in
teresting to the public.
We are now able to state on the best of authority
that Mr.. Seward has not yet accepted the port
folio of the State Department The offer has
been made to him by Mr.. Lincoln, aud he has
it under Amusement, but, as we believe, has not
yet come to a determination on the subject. We
presume, however, that Mr.. Lincoln had reason
TO suppose that he would accept before he made
the proposition. We sincerely trust that he will
not decline. There are few men in the country
who could conduct its foreign relations with the
ability, dignity, and tact which Mr.. Seward
would bring to the duty. 1t is not necessary for
us to add here that we place no confidence in
the Wall street reports which attribute to Mr..
Seward secret completely in the Crittenden
Compromise. Such reports are, as we believe,
without the least foundation in truth.
dispatch in The Herald states that Caleb
B. Smith of Indiana is to be substituted for Mr..
Chase as the representative Of the Northwest,
in the Cabinet. This we believe to be total
mistake. Nor will any one think it disrespect-
full to Mr.. Smith to say that the people of the
country would regard it as serious misfortune
to lose the eminent qualities, character, and
administrative abilities of Mr.. Chase from the
ministry of a Republican President.
The invitation which, as there is reason to be-
heye, Mr.. Lincoln has addressed to Mr. Came.
ron, does not specify precisely the position which
that gentleman is desired to occupy, but men,
tions both the War Department and the Treas
ury, leaving to subsequent communications the
settlement of the question which it shall be. Mr..
Cameron, as we learn, much prefers the Treas
up; and hence, probably it is that his personal
friends have positively alleged that he has been
appoin. ed to that Office. We suppose that We
do not transcend the bounds of propriety, when
we siute that the report of this appointment has
caused surprise and reused opposition both at
Washington and in Pennsylvania. What effect
the remoostrances that have been dispatched to
Springfield will have upon Mr. Lincoln, remains
to be seen. With the Republicans of other States,
the fact that the influence Of Mr. Wilmot (who,
In case Of Mr. Cameron's withdrawal from the
Senate, viii possibly be his successor in that
body was warmly exerted to secure the dis.
tinction which Mr.. Lincoln has already bestowed
upon him, win weigh in Mr.. Cameron's favor.
For the Office of Secretary Of the Interior,
efforts are making in influential quarters to in
ducc Mr.. Lincoln to choose the Hon. John A.
elmer Of North Carolina, instead Of Mr.. Ora
