A contemporary has the following sensible remarks
in regard to the new Cabinet:
p cabinet making is an unpleasant operation, and
unenvable is the lot of the man who has to undergo
il. IE ordinary times, it wins but few thanks; in
difficult times like these it is no. merely ungracious,
but is surrounded with embarrassment But the
difficulty must be confronted boldly and fearleSsy,
and we all hope, with good results to the country.
The late Cabinet was selected somewhat with refer
ence to States. That vicious principle has forced
itself upon our institutions = 1t never was worthy
for moment of wise mans regard. 1t had its
origin in the ambition of petty men, who looked to
locality to supply the defect of merit 1t cannot be
discarded too soon. The BEST the ablest, the most
patriotic disnterested and energetic should be
selected, if they oil come from the same house -
Mere party is as little to be considered. Possibly
1t might be wise, and with view to arouse the
enthusiasm of the whole people, and remove the
suspicion of party bias that some reference might
be had to the old divisions of party. But only on
condition that equal fitness could be obtained We
cannot now afford to sacrifice the public to any
personal or party consideration Wisdom in coun-
Gil and vigor IN action are what we now want, and
We must have them, without regard to persona

WHAT CAN WE EXPECT I've have been rather
tious and inclined to complain unnecessarily of the
government at Richmond in their frequent illusions
to the fact that Yankees and foreigners of doubtful
character, and who were really in the interest of
Lincoln, were employed in the several departments
there Gen. Winder, who has charge Of the pris-
oners has been severely censured at different times
and the employment of such persons in the War
Department has been palpably charged time and
again.
The impropriety and recklessness of such course
were so manifest that supposed 1t impossible
that there could be good foundation for such charges
But recent developments show that these charges
are not baseless. 4 recent Baltimore american, an
out and out Lincoln paper, publishes the following
LATEST FROM RICHMOND We had a most inter-
eSting conversation yesterday With George W..
Walker, of Wayncsboro' Pa, one of the released
prisoners He was taken seven months since whilst
on visit to Virginia and has acted as clerk in the
Quartermasters Department at Richmond, perform
ing all duties in connection with the prisoners thus
securing parole that enabled him to mix freely With
the citizens and soldiers.
He brings with him many unmistakabe evden-
ces of the fact that there exists in Richmond and
the vicinity, suonS anu gallaht oahu vi Union
men, who are willing and anxious at the proper
moment to welcome the old flag, and fight if neces-
sary to sustain its supremacy. They requested
him to make the fact known to the government that
they claim to be three thousand strong, and that
full regiment of drilled volunteers can be raised at
an hours notice The Union ladies are also very
numerous, and have freely expended their means in
succoring and comforting the sick and wounded
Federal prisoners. Mr.. Walker brings with him a
beautiful gold and enamel chain which was presen-
ted to him oy party Of ladies on the eve of his
departure
Now what can be expected but defeat and ruin,
if such state of things be allowed, even under
the very nose of the government?

nttees have been given to the cotton States; and
in several instances where members from this State
have been appointed they have been placed last or
nearly last on the list We do not mention this by
way of complaint, but to show that those who, with
President Davis, are still commencing secession at

EXEMPTIONS Of the most serious difficulties
connected with a draft, and which perhaps causes
nearly all the dissatisfaction that arises is the rule
or manner of granting exemptions. 1t is clearly
and Enthusiastically the duty Of every man who is
capable of bearing arms and enduring the hardships
Of camp-life to do so without hesitancy, at time
like this when his country calls Exemptions should
be made under some fixed and just rule, unbiased
by favor or affection In this State, the law exemps
very few, except those who may be pronounced by
physicians as unfit for duty, yet the large number
who obtain certificates from physicians, produces
much discomfort People find it difficult to believe
that men who until now have been capable of per-
forming any other service, are found to be entire
" unfit to make soldiers. Captious persons or those
who are not very credulous, will in spite of the doc
tors, believe that the disease which now aflcts
some persons, is sheer cowardice more than any
thing else. 1t is certainly not the case with all.
In the recent draft, the Colonels and others are
allowed to exempt without the shadow of reason.
This we consider unfortunate for our cause. In
Virginia, this matter is managed with greater pro-
priety. In that State neither the Governor, AdJu-
tant General nor Colonels are allowed to grant ex
emptions The whole matter has been placed in the
hands of Board of Magistrates for each County or
corporation. As magistrates not exempt in this
direct the County Courts to appoint Board for that
purpose from among the most wise and discreet citi
zens over 80 years of age.

Designs of the Enemy.

The disappearance of the enemy from Chowan
river and Abemarle Sound we fear, will lead to the
suppOsti0n, and consequent inacton on our part,
that he does not mediate an immediate attack upon
the rear of Norfolk. We cannot doubt for mo-
ment that the accomplishment o. that object and
the possession of the Railroad was the chief object
OF the expedition. But the movement will not be
made until Burnside has completed the organization
OF his reinforcements, the complete fertilization of
Roanoke Island and the necessary preparation for
making it the baseofa all his operations upon North
Carolina. We have no doubt Hatteras will be
abandoned as depot of men, arms and munitions,
and that everything essential to the enterprise will
be transferred to Roanoke Island. ...
Before month passes, we fear the authorities
Will be made to feel more deeply than they have yet
done, the immense importance Of the possession Of
Roanoke Island to the enemy, and how necessary
1t was to have it fully fortified against him. Every
thing is no doubt being concentrated now at that
point but the blow upon the rear of Norfolk will
not be struck until Gen. Wool is ready to second
his efforts by a front movement upon the South
side Of James River or upon. Suffolk. =
But in-the mean time we beg to call the attention
Of the authorities to the probabilities of attack
upon Newbern and Washington, just prior to his
advance upon the rear of Norfolk. His object is,
doubt, to scatter and divide and then destroy. Let
the authorities and the people be on the alert Let
the people rally one man to thecall of Gov Clark
Let them answer promptly to the call Of Gen. Branch
at Newborn for slave and free colored labor upon
the entertainments and Qualifications. Let the PEG
Ple about Washington spare no pains, labor or ex'
pense in digging entrenchments and certifying, in
order to give the enemy a warm reception.

The War.

The proportions of the war spread and grow i'm
mensely both by land and sea. To burst asunder and
free ourselves from the coils of the boa constructor
demands united, prompt and vigorous effort The
contest it advances may increase in violence and
severity, but having committed our destiny to the
events of an unnatural and wicked war, we must
do our utmost Reverses we may expect even
under the wisest management, and that they should
have occurred under the circumstances which sur
round u.s. need not be a matter of wonder True
courage does not waver under misfortune, nor will
a wise prudence allow us to sit down and lament
our losses. We must be up and doing. The coun-
try expects every man to do his duty, and he who
faers at time Ike this is recreant to her welfare.
President Davis, very strangely to US, felictates
himself and the country, upon the small amount
(S17O O0O) expended during the first year of the
Confederacy. Better had il been double that sum,
if we had the arms, the munitions of war, the men,
and the ironclad steamers, to show for it Two
things have gone farther to bring us into our pres
ent plight than all things else besides. First, the
fatastic blindness, which led the Southern authors
of the revolution to contend at first, and to act
upon it. that we should have no war; and then after
it began, that it was to be short war. Secondly,
the fear of spending money to prepare for the tcGr
lest it might endanger the popularity of the party
who claimed the right to manage it. with the masses
of the people.
The sequel has shown, that these have been two
fatal errors,-errors of which they were faithfully
and persistenty admonished by those who sought
to preserve the Union as long as it could be done
with honor TO the South-errors, which the COM
monest foresight might and ought to have guarded
against But let the past teach us lesson. The
whole strength of the enemy will be arrayed inst
us. We arc fighting powerful, numerous and un-
scrupulouS enemy. Let the South no longer close
It's eyes to this fact and let every. energy be put
forth to meet the blows which he will strike at
every point
