WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.-It is rumored
that the Cabinet meeting yesterday was
stormy. The President, 1t is asserted,
made some very plain speeches, but no
definite purpose was arrived al.
Official reports OF the deposition of

In forty-eight hours.
After the meeting Secretary Fish was
Interviewed. He said he was not con-
suited, nor did he see before they were
sent the two dispatches of the Secretary
OF War to Sheridan.
! The first time he saw them was In the
newspapers. Mr.. Bristow says he never

saying the whole cabinet approved has

BelknAp declines to say word on the
subject. Robeson says you may say in
answer to your questions that, II am q
law abiding c tizen." Delano left Tor the
south yesterday. He approves Beik-
maps dispatches and the rest Of his

The Postmaster General says he never
saw the dispatches until he saw them in
the newspapers. At. orney General Will
Iiams, in The absence Of official inior-
nation from Louisiana, prefers not to ex-
press all opinion either on Belknau's dis
patches or Sheridan's course. He thinks,
however, that Sheridan's dispatches CON-
yey pretty accurate idea OF the general
situation.

Great Writers as Conversers.

1t is said that neither Pope nor Dryden
was brilliant in conversation, the one
being toe ssaturnine and reservedn and
the other too much afraid of the author
OF The Essay of Man." Neither Addison
nor Cowper shone in society, and the
same is true OF the celebrated French
authors, Descartes. Mohere, La Fontaine
and Button. Addison, indeed, could
talk charmingly, to one or TWO friends,
but he was shy and absent before strail-
gers. To use his own happy metaphor,
he could draw bills ior a thousand
pounds, though ne, had not a guinea in
his pocket. Hume's writings were SO
superior to his conversation that Horace
WalpOle used to say that he understood
nothing until he had written upon it.
Goldsmith was blundering converser,
and showed hardly spark of the genius
that blazes through his writings. Occa-
sionally he blurted out good thing, as
when he applied to johnson saying, in
one of Cibber's plays: "There is no ar
guing with Johnson, for when his pistol
misses fire he knocks down his adver-
sary with the butt end Of it," But gen.
orally he ''talked like poor POLL" and,
when he made an accidental hit, soon
neutralized its effects by something ex-
quisitely foolish. Neither Corneille, the
great French dramatist, nor Marmontal,
the novelist, were masters OF the INTEL
lectual foils. Nicolle said of q sparkling
wit, '.He yanquishes me in the drawing
room, but surrenders to me at discretion
on the stairsp The eloquent Rousseau,
whose writings have bewltched thou
sands, confessed that when forced to
open his mouth he iniallibly talked non-
sense. 81 hastily gable over number
of words without ideas, happy only when
they chance to mean nothing; thus en-
deavoring to cbnquer or hide my inca
pacity. | rarely fail to show it." The
witty Charles II, who was SO charmed
with the humor of Hudibras that he
caused himself to be introduced private
1y to the author, found Butler an intoler-
ably dull companion. He was confident
that so stupid fellow never wrote the
book. The Earl of Dorset, who sought
an interview with the great satirist, was
similarly disappointed. Taking three
bottles Of wine with him, he found the
great poet dull and heavy after the first
had been drained, somewhat sparkling
alter the second bot,le, and alter the
third more stupid and muxzy than ever.
'sYour friend,o said the Earl, alter he
had left with his introducer, sis like
ninepin, little at both ends and great in
the middle."

pecially California, withaall its mouutains, are

our great American lakes is slowly sinking
while sonthtrn Indiana, Kentucky, and the
surrounding States are rising. Geological in
vestigations prove that our great lakes except
Ontario, had formerly southern outlet; until,
by gradual northern depressions and southern
Nupheaval i, northern outlet was formed from
Lake Erie into Ontario, about 40, 900 years
ago. This outlet, the Niagara river, Is still
wearing away its channel The division line

The most eminent German biologists and

eastward to Australia. When the great Pacific
continent slowly sank, 80 that the ocean COM
