How the Cabinet was Selected.

Report has it that the Cabinet as constituted was
made up on recommendations as follows: Messrs.
Lincoln, Blaine and Hunt were the personal Sc
lections of President Garfield Messrs. MacVeagh
and James were recommended and strongly urged
by ex-President Hayes; Mr.. Window by ex-Secre-
taFy Sherman, and Mr. Kirkwood by Senator Alli-
son.-EUel'iRg Star.
This will be news to the President. He
had an idea that he appointed all the
Cabinet, and we think he did.

A WASHINGTON LADY temporarily resid-
ing in New York, with a view to making
it her permanent home. claims through
one of the papers that she finds no intel
lectual society there that the best people
are given over to an insane purpose to
make all the show possible, and that
dress, style, appearance, and fashion
form the staple of their conversation and
thought; that they are not given to in
tellectual pursuits in the least, but
everything is strained to the ut
most in an exhaustive struggle
to "show off," She misses the
refined and cultivated society of the
Capital, and laments, as one Of the trials
in store for her, that she will be deprived
of those intellectual pleasures which she
has long enjoyed in Washington. even
though she has occupied a comparatively
humble position. To the observer Of the
phases OF society in the metropolis
this complaint will appear as very
0pr0p0S, and the conclusions well taken
Ii can be safely said that no city in the
country offers the advantages in genuine
social enjoyment that is furnished by This
city. 1t is pre-eminently intellectual,
taking its tone from Congress, the pres
ence of intellectual men, and the legiti-
mate study of the higher social pur-
poses. Leisure not offered in the hurly-
burly of metropolitan life is also an ele-
ment in bringing about the graces and
pursuits of real culture. And from what
may be termed the outer circle the inner
reflects like purpose. Ii is true, as the
correspondent assumes, that nowhere in
America are the same social. advantages
enjoyed as in Washington. The best ad-
vice we can give to the lady is to return
to Washington at once.

The Outrage Mill"

On Wednesday a number of prominent
Alabamians called upon the President
and presented him an address, in which
was depicted with power the appalling
political situation in that State, and for
the relief of which some remedies were
suggested. A telegram announcing this
fact TO the New York World is headed
"Getting Ready the Outrage Mill" This
sportive Endorsement of the coarse and
felonious methods by which the Alabama
Bourbons maintain a minority domina-
ton in that ill-starred State is highly
characteristic fthe Northern accomplices
of the Southern criminals. "The outrage
mill " is phrase which had nearly gone
out of our vocabulary. We are glad to
see it revived. 1t came in use several
years ago, when organized torture and
murder In some of the Southern States
seized the ballot-boxes, which have since
been held in the firm grasp of organized
ballot-boX suffers, who are shielded from
the penalty due to their crimes by organ
lied peFjurers, and corrupt local courts
The Horld knows there have been no
elections in Alabama for years, but that
in their stead grotesque and uneoncealed
violation of every element that enters
into fair elections. There is no pretense
by the ruflians who mainly control pollti-
cal affairs in the so-called elections there
that voters have necessarily anything to
do with voting, or that voting has any
thing TO do with the result. No election
officer is allowed to sit on an election
board who is not either in full harmony
with the suffers, or else so weak OF igno-
rant as to know nothing that is going on,
or so corrupt that his acquiescence in the
crime is cheaply obtained. Objection to
this saturnalia of crime is called "the
outrage mill" Democratic Senators and
members said this years ago with venom
GUS energy, while their criminal associates
on the Gulf were reinforcing them
through anarchy, revolution, and blood.
The kingdom of Dahomey is as free
realm as has been any State on the Gulf
of Mexico since 1874. The smiling bull
dozers, who gushed and fawned at the
Executive Mansion four years ago, created
condition throughout the extreme South
compared with which the French reign
of terror was a small local disturbance.
White American citizens of Southern
birth, who bravely fought in the confed-
crate army to the end, have been political
slaves forsix years, with whom freedom of
speech and political action meant merci-
less persecution and ostracism, and, if
persisted in to the danger of Bourbon
domination-DEATn. Every instinct of
decent manhood reyolts at the savage
methods of the ruling class alluded to.
They have so debauched society, so de-
graded the moral sense, and so brutalized
the body Of their adherents that the
foundations of society have slipped away,
and the fountains of the great deep of
vice and crime in political affairs are
broken up. If every black and white Re
publican and every Liberal and Green
backer in Alabama could be cast into the
sea to-day the Bourbons left behind would
be at each others throats for possession
of the hideous political deity they have
erected.

Cotton Mills in the Snufh.

The Boston Journal of Commerce says
at is the custom to speak of the southern
mills as of little account making an inferior
class of goods, only fit for southern trade,
etc. An Englishmsn lately visiting the
Eagle & Ph@nix mills, Columbus, Georgia.
said the new No. mill was the bestequipped
mill in the world. Certainly there is no mill
making larger variety or better quality of
goods. 1t has every new improvement, and
some thai no other mills in the country are
usi g. The profit of these miIls last year
was 90 per cent on capital Of 81 $50 000,
or S. 7G per spindle. The mills are lighted
with the Brush electric light, and water
power is used to run them. 1t cost TO light
the No, mill for six months, including car
bons and attendance, Sll0; Tor the same
time gas would have cost $1,000.
