WASHINGTON, March 7.-Secretary ThomD-
son will not be able to visit Charleston to
inspect the harbor improvements. Secre-
tary McCrary viii visit that city, but owing
to the extra session OF Congress does not
know when he can make the visit.
:: The Secretary Of the Treasury to-day rre-
sented to the Cabinet report from Assist
ant-Secretary French in support OF the
Treasury order Of February 26th last, pro-
hOittng the importation OF cattle from
England. Some OF the members OF the
Cabinet at that time believed that one Of
the effects Of that order would be disturb
ance of our commercial relations with Eng
land. The Treasury has, however, given
the subject full consideration, and Mr..
French's report was adopted by the Cabi-
net to-day. The order Of the Department
will therefore not be reversed.
The Cabinet also considered the appoint
ment OF the members OF the National Board
Of Health, under the bill passed during the
closing hours OF Congress. The bill pro-
vides that the Board shall consist respect
lively OF one member representing the
Treasury Department, one the Navy, one
the War, and one the Department OF JUS
tice, and seven to be appointed by the Pre-
sident. Tt was decided that Surgeon-Gene-
raj Woodwork, OF the Marine-Hospital
Service, should be the representative OF the
Treasury; MeGicalDlrcctor Francis M.
Gunnell Of the Navy, Solicitor-General
Phillips of the Department Of Justice, and
Assistant-Surgeon John S. Billings OF the
War Department.
The Democratic senators will hold eau.
Gus on the 18th instant to take action OH the
Reorganization OF the Senate and the con-
struction Of the various standing commit
tees.
The Democratic members OF the House
will hold their caucus on the 18th instant
The Republicans and the Grccnbackcr;
also have a CAUCUS.
The friends of Mr.. Waddell, Of NORTH
Carolina, say he has the entire support Of
his State delegation in Congress for the sec
retaryship OF the Senate, and will have adj
ditional strength in other quarters.

TIE CHINESE QUEsTIoY.-The President
has vetoed the bill to restrict Chinese inmi-
grafton to California. How the people on
the Pacific will boil! Nor shall we blame
them. SeIf-preservation requires that they
should, by some means or other, stop the
heather from coming to their country.
Look out for red-hot doings in California.
In the meanwhile we should like to see
the Presidents reasons for the course he
has taken. We suspect, whatever may be
the reasons lie alleges, he is acting merely
as politician, and carefully calculated the
chances OF gaining votes for his party. But
is he sure that he has made correct calcutta
tions? The workingmen Of the whole
United States are down against the CHI
nesc, and they ought to vote against any
party which fails to check their immisra1
ton to this country. There can be no more
important question.-DanriHe Times.
