the tenth day of his fast at noon to-day
with his usual confidence IN his ability to

steadily losing in flesh, but to every ones
surprise during the past twenty. hours
he gained three-q quarters OF pound. Dur
ing the day he drank twenty-four ounces of
water. He walks about his room whistling
or chatting cheerfully with his visitors,
of whom he has great number every day.

l see the newspapers concede that General
Garfield is to have a representative Cabinet and
in filling the various positions. it is thought
that he will prefer to select the Secretary of
the Treasury from the great West, for reasons
which he has forcibly expressed. The natural
sympathy which the South has for the West.
makes us take an interest in the selection for
SO important an appointment, if it is 10 come
from the West, and in this connection was
glad to see the very favorable mention made
of the Hon. G. B Raum. the present Commits
sioner of Internal Revenue,by the Chicago and
New York papers, as the gentleman most like

from the West, no State appears to have bet

Raum entered actively into the canvass in Hi

He is favorably known to the country from
his administration of the Internal Revenue
Bureau. and possesses great executive and adj

most conspicuously in reforming and perfect

much esprit de corps and Thorough system in the
Internal Revenue as in any other branch OF

of recent origin, and most of this has been ac-

Gen. Green B. Raum.

A communication in to-day's VfRGINIAN
presents the claims ofGen. Green B. Raum foi
a position in Gen. Garfield's Cabinet. The
| reasons to sustain this nomination are fofci5ly
| stated, and cannot fail to have much weight
There seems to be in the South general de :
sire that the services of Gen. Raum in the
important and complicated service of the In
ternal Revenue Depa rtment, and his effective
labors in the recent Presidential canvass BE-
recognized. and lnasmuch as the belief prevalls
that the West will, in all probability, furnish
the Secretary of the Treasury, it is a fortunate
coincidence that the great State of Illinois can
present gentlemtn whose qualifications so
eminently fit him for the position, who is SO
entirely acceptable to the South-indeed, we
might say, the favoritc of the Southern sec
lion of the Union. Another correspondent is
equally pronounced in his declaration as is
"Veritas," and equally emphatic in the choice
he expresses. He says: Notwithstanding
perhaps the want of delicacy, and it may be
the futility of suggesting the name of any one
tor position in the cabinet of Gen. Garfield
yet ss many have done so, permit me thro ngll
your columns to present the name of a gentle
man, who, in my opinion, is -eminentlv
qualified for such position and whose selec-
ton for the Treasury Department or some
other, would be emineBtly fit and appro. rate.

1t is very clear that no such expedients as
the Barbour or the Rddleberger Bill will serve
the purpose of settling the debt question, and
that any further discussion or agitation of
either of these measures will be SO much wor
ry and annoyance to the people for nothing
There must be an understanding with the
creditors, and this it will be difficult to get,
because of the course heretofore pursued to-
ward them. 1t is certainly important that the
various classes of bonds, representing original
obligations of equal dignity, should be placed
on a uniform footing, and that some steps to
accomplish this be instituted. Under the de-
cision, from which there can be no appeal, the
$1,20000G coupons will have to be annually
provided for, and this cannot be done. and

afford to allow the interest to 60 on accumu-

The Banner on last Monday says:
During the session OF the re-district.
ing committee this morning Mr.. Coul-
ter arose to question of privilege.
He said that it had been stated by
outsiders, that as he was Jealous
worker OF the subcommittee, he had
arranged Gibson county as it now
stood, when in point of fact he was
absent at the time, and at the sugges-
ton Of Judge Smith, Of Shelby, the
committee arranged that county.
He further stated that he had con,
suited with several prominent geatle~
men Of Gibson, and they, as we'll as
himself, hal hoped that the county
would have been arranged differently
from what the committee had decided
on" We have information that Sen.
ator Rankin suggested and recon-
mended the idea to the committee,
and believe our people will generally
approve of it, as it gives Gibson coun-
ty one Senator and two representa-
tives. No other county in the state,
outside of Davidson and Shelby, has
a whole Senator. 1t speaks well fOr
the third county in the state.
