to the manner 10 which he handled III,
enemies OF oar country without gloves
were mot disappointed last evening. In
fact, he made many telling hits on the en-.

wefe of some length, were greeted With
frequent applause. The Colonel being q
Democrat, at first, as he said, had few
conscientious scruples in regard to the
manner in which the war was conducted
but these were quickly dispelled when tho

SOUTHERN ITEMS.

NAH 1Ohkt Dec. ..
The Richmond Wing Of the 81, says:
In the following plain fashion, and with
no other motiVeor thought than to advance
the public interest, we would sgain sug-
gest to the President the advantage Of re-
constructing his Cabinet and calling to lis
aid the very s5lest intelleets Of the coun-
try. We have Department OF State that
has not been able for nearly three years to
establish relations with any other State.
A Treasury Department that has failed to
keep its finances from running to ruin. A
War Department in the hands Of chief
whose studies and course Of life has been
purely and peculiarly civic. A Navy De-
psrtment without Navy. A Postofice
Department with very shsekling sy ystem
of mails. A Department of Justice, vacant.
The business Of its Departments separate
ly considered shows the want Of more
mastery hand; and the united powers of
their chiefs in Cabinet Council-if Couu-
ellis are ever held-fsiltO to supply the guam
tum Of wisdom the country needs.
We arc getting to deep waters and 3
feeling Of dread IS shaking the souls OF the
people. There is nothing the President
can do thstWill 50 respimste their hearts
and stimulate their confidence il an sffec-
ton fer him as the calling to his side, as
daily advisers, 3 Cabinet Of the Wisest
truest and most experienced men in the
country, regardless Of what may have
been their former political sssocist. ons
The time is propitious. The ooeasion arg
ent and the people sn1iOusly expectant for
his own continuing capacity for useful
ness and future fame as well as on secount
Of the sorely necessitous and exigent con-
dition of the country. We earnestly press
this recommendation.
