Gen, GarfieId,s Cabinet,

Gen. Garfieid,S Cabinet.
AS to General GarriedS Cabinet there IS a
general belief that 1t will be of a mixed charac-
ter-a compromise structure, intended to mar
monte the two wigs OF the party. Gen. Ben
Harrison is admitted on all hands to be sure
member of IL. MI. John G. New of Indiana,
being looked to as Senator McDona!dS probable
successor In the senate. Mr.. Harrison Is re-
gaIded here as moderate" republican.
General Logan is known to desire the Sacre-
tarJ ship OF the Interior. 1t was the place he
chose for himself when he thought Grants
nomination certain; and at that time he and his
friends made no secret OF his wishes and deter
minattOn.
Senator Conkling is thought to desire the
place CT Postmaster General for his friend and
able adJntant Mr. Thomas c. Patt. He asked
this OF Mr.. Hayes In 1877, and was very CURLY
refused, and 1t is believed he will not ask 1t In
vain OF Mr.. Garfield.
james T. Wilson. of Iowa, is named as a
probable Attorney General. He belongs to the
moderate republican side and was opposed to
the third term. But 1t Is also thought that
Gen. Garfield may desire to reserve the Attor-
ney GtGeralship for New England man.
The Treasury, according 10 the general belief,
viii remain In charge OF Nr. Sherman, In which
case the Ohio Senatorship, In place OF General
Garfield, will become prize for which several
eminent Buckeyes will reach out with great
vigor this winter.
People are asking With some curiosity what
Mr.. Don Cameron will demand. 1t is known
that he has decided liking for a Cabinet POSI-
ton. While the third term movement seemed
likely to succeed Mr.. Cameron did not conceal
from his friends that he found the Senate far
ment and that he hoped to return to that place,
fer which. gossip says, he believes himself to
be peculiarly fitted. There are. however
people who do not believe Gen. Garfield will
give him his wish In this matter.
so lar, counting Mr.. Ben Harrison for the
state departments; Mr.. Sherman, Treasury; Mr..
Platt, Post Office; General Logan. Interior. and
James F. Wilson. Attorney General five of the
FIJI hy7
thu gossips. But there is some eXpecta-
ton here that Mr. Garfield may offer the Sec
retaTyship Of War to General Grant. The Cen
erals friends say that he really did immense ser
vice In the canvass; that he ought to be reward
ed; that be likes Washington and has house
here; that he could scarcely afford to go abroad
on foreign mission; that he wants something
TO do. and that in short, the War department
ought to Ge given him. There are Others who
urge that he ought to have the Department or
state, and that he would prefer this OF all the
Cabinet places.
Garlielt's personal friends, however, look
c0loly upon these proposals. They reply thai
Gen. Grant deserves all his admirers assert, but
that it would be very awkward thing for
President to call to his cabinet man Ike Gen.
Grant, whom he could not remove from the
cabinet without public scandal SIT is never
prudent" they urge, " to invite man to your
house 10 whom IT would be difficult to show the
Coor after he got In, In case you got tired OF his
company. "-Igdsh Special n. 2. Herald.
