that the President has already ordered
their withdrawal, which necessarily

SWORN IA ON

How Mr.. Hayes took thesoath of
office and why he took it on Satur-
day evening, is explained by a New
York journal, which says hat the
oath of office was administered to
Mr.. Hayes on Saturday evening,
very privately, by Chief Justice
Waite, in one Of the rooms of the
presidential mansion, the President
elect and the chief justice being at
the time guests of President Grant,
who gave a dinner in honor of his
successor. This method of taking
the oath, though unusual, is no
doubt perfectly legal. President
Tyler was sworn into Office at
Browns hotel in the presence Of
members of the deceased General
Harrison's cabinet; but every Pres
ident elected as such by the people
has until now taken the oath in
the presence of both houses Of con-
gress and a large assemblage of
citizens, with the exception Of
President Monroe at his second
Inauguration, which, like the be-
ginning Of President Hayes term,
happened to fall on a Sunday.
President Taylor's term also began
on a Sunday, but the administra-
ton of the oath was put off until
the next day. The peculiar cir
cumstances which have surrounded
this election seemed to render it
~expedient that the office should not
be vacant even for a single day,
and President Hayes, who is I'M
derstood to be a strictly religious
man, probably preferred to take
the oath on Saturday evening to
avoid any appearance of intruding
secular business into the Sabbath.
Neither the constitution nor any
law fixes the time when the oath
shall be taken beyond requiring it
to be done before the President en-
ters on his duties. He is permitted
to select his own time, and the oath
is valid at any period between the
official declaration of his election
and his assumption Of the Office.

The red fish of Wallows lake in
California are described as being
blood-red in color, very fat and
weighing about eight pounds, and
are preferred, when taken, to sal
mon. 1t is said there are only four
lakes known in which this fish is
found-Payette in Idaho, a lake in
Maine, one in Scotland, and Wal
lows lake. A company engaged
in commercial fishing on the latter
frequently bringin a ton of red fish
at a haul with a seine of medium
length. Wallows lake is 1000 feet
deep, and the fish suddenly appear
on the surface in August, and
disappear in December.

KR. KsY M re CABINET.

The Washington correspondent
Of the Cincinnati Commercial, Of
March the 9th, gives the following
news items with reference to the
appointment of ex-senator Key 10
a position in the cabinet:
Judge Key arrived to night. He says
he has no Official notification that be is
TO be called to the eabi&et. BE came up
on receipt Of dispatches from responsible
persons in Washington, asking him TO
come. Several days ago be received a
letter from a Tennesseean in Washing
ton, asking him il he would accept a
cabinet position under Hayes, If offered
Judge Key replied, stating his political
situation, saying he would, if it impii-d
no compromise in his position. The
contents Of this letter, it seems, was
made known to Hayes, who wac much
pleased with it, and was confirmed IN
the impression he had long entertained,
that Judge Key was the sort OF man be
wanted in the cabinet from the South.
Judge Key says be would much prefer
General Joe Johnston should have the
place than to have it himself. He thinks
Johnston in the cabinet would do more
to restore confidence and reconciliation
between the sections than the elevation
Of any mar that could be mentioned.
The Tennessee Republicans are al.
most unanimously in favor of Key. and
so are most Of the Southern Republicans.
although it is well understood that Kew
is a Democrat, and always has been
But he is such an eminently iust and
conservative man hat he has always
had the Republicans support. In tie
late senatorial contest the Republicans
voted for him solidly.
Thornburgh, OF the Second Tennessee
district, is the only prominent Southern
Republican who is making a fight against
Key. He called upon the President and
protested against his appointment. To.
day a delegation OF twenty-five or thirty
Tennessee Republicans called upon the
President, assuring him that KEYS an.
pointment would be satisfactory to the
party 10 Tennessee.
The President said this afternoon that
he had resolved TO make Key postmaster
general, all opposition TO The contrary
Notwithstanding, unless the judge should
decline the position.
Some of the ultra Republicans, headed
probably by Blaine, may fight his con
iirmation. bat there are not enough Of
them to avail. Blaine manifests a dis.
position to break with the Administra-
ton, anyway, and Keys nomination will
afford lin IN opportunity to sail in
lively.
LATER Mr.. Key had an interview
with the President tonight, at which he
formally accepted the Office of postmas
ter general Ia the conversation which
ensusd, covering the entire Southern
question, the President and Mr.. Key
we're found to be in perfect accord. The
President announced his purpose to send
a commission, headed PROBABLY by Vice
Wheeler, 10 Louisiana, to ex.
the state Of affairs there and RS.
port to himsat an early day.
