The CABINET SLATE.-A Washington special TO
the Herald says
The following is the new cabinet slate, revised
and corrected for the week ending at eleven P. NJ.
on Saturday, the 18th inst:
Secretary of state-Hon. Charles Francis Ad-
ans, of Massachusetts.
Secretary Of the PRESUMPTION. Oliver P. Nor
ton, of Indiana.
Secretary of war-Gen. John NJ. Schofeld, U.
8. A, of Illinois.
Secretary Of the navy-Admiral David ID. Por-
ter, U. s. N, of Pennsylvania
Secretary of the interior-Hon. Benjamin F..
Wade. of Ohio.
Postmaster generation. Horace Greeley, of
New York.
Attorney general-Hon. Quen sabe', of the
South.
The certainty of Admiral Porter. u. 8. NJ, being
secretary Of the navy, and strong probability OF
Gen. schofed, U. s. A. being secretary of war,
will account for the introduction of Senator Ed
mundss bill in the Senate, which prevents the
holding of two Offices or the holding OF civil Office
by any one in the military service.
The following is suggested as good loyal cabi-
net for Gen. Grant:
Secretary of state--E. B. Washburne, of Illinois.
Secretary of wsr-H. D. Washburne of Indiana
Secretary of the navy-W. B. Washburne, of
Massachusetts,.
Secretary of the treasury-C. @. washburne, Of
Wisconsin.

Paraguay.

The EARLY RISING NuIsANcE.-The Saturday
Review says:
0fcourse, to rise early is virtue OF the highest
quality, II you want 70 catch the first railway
train, or II you want to get through q certain
quantity OF special work or correspondence before
beginning the routine business OF the day. Bot
who does not know creature of the sscetic sort
who will tell you at O'Clock with invincble phar-
isaism that he had been up ever since 6. has had
his breakfast ever so long ago, and that he cannot
endure to lie in bed after sunrise! You ask him
what he has been doing with the three hours
which his heroic fortitude has thus given him.
The chances are that he has been doing nothing
except contemplating, in Brahminic fashion. the
beauties Of bis own per ection and comparing them
with the miserable weakness of men who lie abed
until or O'Clock, because they know that there
are still hours enough left in the solid day to use
up all their energies. On the WHOLE perhaps, q
man might as well be comfortably recruiting him
self in bed as stalking hither and thither over the
house, round the garden. into the stables thinking
all the time how good and great q being he is be-
cause he goes IN for hair shirts. Eating and
drinking give men Of this temper another fine
chance, OF which they never refuse 10 avail them
selves, OF DOMINIC the hair shirts and the laurel
wreath which they suppose to belong to it.
