WASHINGTON.
Seating Of the New Senators.

WASHINGTON, March Sit is proper to
say that the sacred phrase thoughtlessly
placed by the artist in charge of decora-
lions among the legends of the inaugural
ball was removed. by order of the COM
mittee of Arrangements
Most of the new Senators Were seated
yesterday.
Senator Spencer, of Alabama, called but
did not put in an appearance. It is I'M
derstOod that objections would have been
made.
Neither General Mcmillan nor Pinch
beck were called.
THERE'S much speculation relative to the
Cabinet, founded on the mere report that
recently the members of it have formally
rendered their designations, thus necess /.
tating new nominations to the Senate
The question about the Cabinet was, how
ever, settled last fall. Soon after the re-
election of President Grant, at Cabinet
meeting, all the members being present,
they Informed him that, wishing to do
nothing whatever to embarrss him in his
administration, they would tender their
resinations, to take effect on the 4th of
March ensuing. The Presidsnt expressed
informed them he had no desire for any
one of them to withdraw from their pres
ent positions, but preferred they should
all remain. Nothing has since occurred to
change the position of affairs as it existed
at that time. The only immediate change
will be in the Secretaryship of the Treas
ury, should the present incumbent be elect
ed to the Senate of the United States. The
opinion that the President need not re-
nominate the present members of the
Cabinet for confirmation by the Senate is
strengthened by the fact that all of them
were at their respective departments to.
day attending to their official duties, and
it is said by gentlemen in executive posi-
tions that no such denominations will be
made.
Levi b. Lucky succeeds Col. Douglass
as the Presidents private secretary. G. c.
Sniffen has been appointed assistant pri
waite secretary and o. l.. Prudep executive
clerk.
Senator Edmunds yesterday received s
dispatch from the Citizens COMMITTEES al
New Orleans, calling upon the Senate t.
take immediate action upon the creden
tials of Hon. w. p. Mcmillan.
David c. Smith has been confirmed liz
spector General of steamboats,.
The Department of State is in receipt O
information that no fines on American
vessels in Cuba are to be enforced until ap
proved by the intendente.

DOGS and Sheep.

Official reports show in Ohio an annual
loss of 81 ,O00, 900 in injuries done by dogs
"a loss equivalent to 6,0O0,0 pounds OF
wool, or a tax of two per cent. upon the
total sum invested in sheep in that State.
It is said that in two years, from 1868 to
1870, Illinois. sank from the sixth to the
ninth rank among the States in the num-
Der and value of its sheep, and this great
falling off is attributed to proportionate
increase in the number of dogs, and the
lack of proper legislation to prevent their
ravages among sheep.-Ec.
