Garfield says he will not make
any selection, even in his own
mind, Tor his Cabinet, before
February. This should shut up
gossip mOngers, who have already
turned out half a dozen Cabinets
for him. Garfield denies having
asked John Sherman to retain
the Secretaryship of the Treasu-
ry. 1t is more than probable that
he will make a selection of men
for their special fitness for the
office, rather than Tor their po!it;--
cal reputation. Good and eff
Gent service alone will satisfy the
country; and active, gaseous poll
ticans are hardly ever capable
administrators.
The New York Herald states
that 47S,000 persons born in for.
eign countries are residents of
that city, while $4,000 of the
inhavitants are natives. Two.fifth
of the people are, therefore, fore
igners by birth. It should be re-
membered, in considering these
proportions, that there is a very
large foreign population that does
not vote, made up of agents, part
ners and clerks who merely re.
present foreign business houses.
