WASHINGTON, November 19.-As an evi-
dencc o! The entire unaniuty in the Cabinet
on the exciting complications growing out
of the FirginuS capture and its consc-
quenccS it may be mentioned that all the
Cabinet officers, though guarded in their ex-
pressious rs to what diplomatic action has
been taken By the Government, or what
will be the result Of it, do rot hesitate to
speak in regard to their entire confidence in
the President, and the approval by the peo-
pie of the course pursued when the same
shall become known. It's q noticeable fact
that in these eXpre:sio there is evidence
of thorough accord between the President
and his Cabinet.
