President Grant and .hls Cabiael.

u
Our new President seems TO. find it
not all velvet in hisHew POSITION On
the s5tl he sent to the Senate the
names of his new Cabinet, which that
body confirmed, as follows: saszgr
Secretary ofState--E. b. Wasllburn,
of Illinois. -ass1 G
Secretary of the sTreasary-A, T.
Stewart, Of New York -f-7 Lruyx
Secretary of the Navy--Atlolph Boz
rel, OF Pennsylvania. ~ re, = -r.z z
Attorney sGenerai-Judge Hoar, of
Massachusetts. -s.r ~ e. rq71 ~,
Secretary of Wm'-Gen. Schofield.
Secretary of the Interior--Ex-Gov.
Cox, of Ohio -t-al .Tf,a Wv rog
Postmaster General--zAs ]. Cresswell,
OF Maryland ss zz1q Ees+R
Scarcely had the new Cabinet been
confirmed before some busy-body dis
covered the fact that the Secretary of
Treasury was ineligible, owing 10 the
existence of a law PASSED in 1872 pre-
venting any person engaged in trade,
from occupying that position To do
away with this objection the President
asked Congress topass a law relieving
Mr.. STkwART of the disability. Mr..
s in Che ,,,sa,,tirpa e>yeo,stipr Q Dss<l of
fruN OF his immense business, the
profits of which, during his occupancy
ofthe Treasuryship to be given to some
charitable purpose in the city, Of New
York, Congress not being in a hurry
to accede to the request of the President
he withdrew his request, and Mr.. STEW
ART sent to GRANT his resignation,
which was accepted, leaving vscan-
ey. 4 a1s
There is every prospect of a lively
time and free fight between the Radi-
calls and GRANT; in fact it has already
commenced, and if our new President
does not find more difficulties in his
path than he ever encountered during
the " little unpleasantness," we shall
loose our guess. a11H
The Radical press are freely CRITICS
ing his course and thus far pronounce
it hlunder. The Missouri Radicals
are Disguised, and New York is not nor
will not he satisfied. In the. mean
time, among the excited mass, GRANT
is the only being that seems composed,
because perhaps it is his nature and
perhaps, because he is Indifferent,
meaning, as luck has already done so
much for him, TO let luck take care of
the rest.

The Fourteenth Amend
ment to the Constitution pro,
vides that any State may ex-
cIude negroes from voting, pro-
vided they are not counted in
Congressional representations
In the Fifteenth Amendment
there is no clause repeating the
Fourteenth, yet itprovides that
no State shall be allowed under
any condition, to prohibit me-
gro suffrage. Now, the ques.
tion is, if the Fifteenth Amend
ment shall be declared carried,
which is to govern? The two
amendments are in direct con-
fict with each other, and yet
they form a part of the same
Constitution. Is not the Four
teenth Amendment just as bind.
ing as the Fifteenth will be, if
ratified? Nothing shows the
shameless inconsistecy of the
Radical party more than the
fact that in less than a year
from the time it put the Four
teenth Amendment on the stat.
ute,book, it endeavors to re-
peal it by the Fifteenth. But,
as they allow both to stand,
will they not mutually defeat
one another?

The Defeat Of Mr.. PendtetOn
IUrOdd.

The Democratic press out
side of the State, as we'll as in
it, pay deserved compliments
to Mr.. Pendleton for the fine
canvass which he has lately
made for Governor, while at
the same time they express the
deepest regret that the contest
was not entirely successful.-
The Omaha (Nebraska) Her
AIDS comments are a specimen
of those generally made
throughout the Union. 1t
says: The star Of Pendleton
brightens with fresher lusteT
under the result of Ohio, even
as his just fame rises higher
The resolute courage with
which he accepted the hazards
of the contest at a critical con-
conjuncture won the admiration
of the Democracy Of the whole
country. 1t has been our opin.
ion that had he been able to
have made the canvass person
ally he would have carried
Ohio by an overwhelming ma
jority.'
Democratic enquirer. [volume] (M'arthur, Vinton County, Ohio) 1867-1873, 1869-10-27
The dissent Voters.

1t is evident from the returns
already received from various
parts of the State that it was in
the power of the absent Demo-
Gratis to have elected Pendleton
had they rallied to the polls
instead of neglecting their sa-
cred duties as voters. The to-
tai Democratic vote of the State
cast at the late election falls
short by many thousands of be-
ing full. The number ofabsen-
tees was more than sufficient to
have elected Pendleton had
