EEThe Cabinet Of Gen. Grant has
been announced, and, whatever diverse
opinions there may be Of its ability. ft-
ness. &c., all ooncede that it was made By
Grant himself. No faction Of the. Re
publican party can claim any part of it as
their work. or made by their advice. Two
of the members-Messrs. Washburn and
Stewsrt-are emphatically Grant men,
even. perhaps. to the extent Of placing
Grant before the Republican party. We
oil know that Mr.. Stewart organized and
headed Grant party in New York. be-
fore Grant had declared himself Repub-
lican;- that he in fact inaugurated an in
dependent Grant movement. This move
ment was rendered abortive by the subse-
quent nomination of Grant. Washburn
has always been one Of Grants warmest
and most devoted personal friends. From
the known status of these two members,
we may infer that the rest Of the Cabinet
are in strong personal accord with the
President.
Intellectually the Cabinet is not strong.
Perhaps Mr.. Creswell is the ablest man
in it. But IS far as known they are not
what are termed extremists.
The selection Of a Cabinet officer from
the State Of Maryland-a Southern State
and one that did not vote for Grants q
favorable indication. It at least is most
emphatic rebuke to the nonsense that
Maryland has not her proper status in the
Union. owing to her want Of republi-
can form Of government. All that any
man can reasonably expect from Grant is,
that he will exert conservative influence
vithiin his party. He will not leave it.
On the whole, it is evident from his In
|augural and the selection of his Cabinet,
that Grant intends to be President in fact
as we'll as in name; that while agreeing
in the main with the present doctrines Of
bis party, he by no means intends to
be IN automston; that he does not con-
|sider himself . mere clerk to register con-
eressional decrees, but that he will use
the veto power and think and act for him
self. Time alone can show whether be
will act wisely or not.

Washington Hendley, who eloped with
Susan Jones lately, was found near
Bartlett Station to-day, perforated with
pistol balls.
A citizen from French Bayou, Ar

hu,hl1x, and ordered to be shot to
death by musketry.
