THE NEW CABINET.

President Garfield has been very gen.
orally applauded for the selection of his
Cabinet, but there appears to be some
difference of opinion about it from the
following portion of an article written
from Washington to the Augusta Ctron-
icle & Constitmionalist, from its accom-.
plished correspondent, Col. James R..
Randall:
I asked one of the most famous of pol
iticians, now in retirement, what he
thought of the Cabinet. He said !:
Blaine represents subsidy to ships. Lin:
coin represents martyred memory and
the Pullman Car Company. Window
represents the glorifcation of Eads and
tue damnation Of Vanderbilt, Gould and
Garrett. Kirkwood represents the cattle
disease and Indian bobby. MacVeagh b
represents the Pennsylvania Railroad.
Hunt represents Durell and divorce, and
James will be misrepresented by Edward
Mcpherson, who will control his patron
age as Tyner did that Of Key. "Taking
the Cabinet as a WHOLE" said, "what
do you think it means?" He replied
with monosyllable of terrible import:
"Jobs w This give you as the extreme
of an unfavorable view, though inter-
preted by a master-mind and an expert:
As many papers and persons have lauded
the Cabinet to the skies, the reader can
nav his money and take his choice.

REoRaAN1z1Na TIE SENATE.

The extra session of the Senate, 50 far,
has done nothing beyond waging q
strictly party fight upon the reorganiza-
ton, each trying to secure the control of
the working machinery of 49, body.
The Democrats have agreed in caucus
upon the election of Mr.. Bayard as Presi.
dent pro tempore Of the Senate, and have
arranged we'll selected list of commit
tees, but the Republicans have. so far,
prevented reorganization by dilatory
motions and debate, which at times has
been very acrimonious. The indications
now are, that the Democrats will ulti-
mately, by the assistance Of Judge Davis
and the absence of General Malone,
control the organization, which will be
Of decidedly great value, inasmuch as
it will very probably give them the
power to confirm or reject the appoint
ments which may from time to time be
sent in by the new President. It is at
least worth the fight that is being made
over it.

Senator Hill has been taking very
active part in tie debate over the ques-
ton of reorganizing the United States
Senate, and his magnificent abilities have
been of: great service to the party in this
emergency. He has tilted several times
with the turkey.cock Senator from New
York, ana in a good-humored manner
set him down; but the great feature of
the debate was the castigation which he
gave Malone, the truant Democrat from
Virginia, upon whose vote the Republi-
cans have been relying to secure the re-
organization Of the Senate. The adroit
manner in which Mr.. Hill led Malone
to take his position, and then the pow
erful invectiye and castigation which he
hurled at him have done much to un.
mask the true inwardness Of Malone.
ism; and while it assists the Democrats
in keeping him from going over entirely
to the Republicans will also seriously
damage his chances of carrying Virginia
any more. Indeed, the speech of Sena-
tor Hill is said to be worth ten thousand
votes to the regular Democracy OF Vir-
ginia.

The newspapers inform us that the

GERS but one. They elected good ma.
jority ofthe Council and school boards for
the first time in several years. The
elections in New jersey show Demo-
cratic gains all along the line. 1t is a
pity that the current always sets in our
favor when we do not specially need it,
and then seems to turn in the other d.

hand. It really does look as though
there is bad leadership somewhere in the
Democratic party.

HAYES AND HIS SAyINGs-CHer

HAYES AND HIS SAvINGs.-C2sue-
land, Ohio, March 8.-The Cleveland
Herald publishes to-day, by authority,
the following concerning e1-President
Hayes's salary and savings:
"The whole truth concerning the al
legged savings of ex-President Hayes from
his salary can be told in a few words.
The aggregate of that salary for the four
years was 100000. The expenses of
the position during that time was s134,-
600. Had Congress refunded the $4,000
he paid for the expenses of the visiting
statesmen" to Louisiana, his savings
would have been about $4,000. As it
is, be went out of Office with $4,000 to
be carried from his account as President
to the benefit of his account Us private
citizen. When he became President he
was burdened with debts to the amount
of $50, 600, mostly on account of bequests
charged upon the Birchard estate. Of
this amount he has paid 100000 out of
his savings from the Presidential salary,
80 that the net available result in cash of
his Presidential term is $4,000.

The BLAND MURDER CAsE.-Edge-
field c. H., March 1.-THE case of the
State against A. A. Clisby, charged with
the murder of DR.. Wallace Bland, was
concluded this evening and verdict of
not guilty rendered by the jury. The
trial began on Wednesday morning and
consumed two days. The Court House
was crowded to its utmost capacity
during the progress of the trial, and
much interest was manifested in the case.
The State was ably aud admirably repre-
sented by Col. j. S. Cothran, the talented
and distinguished Solicitor of the Eighth
Circuit, who was assisted by Col. c. L.
Woodward. The defense was conducted
with signal ability by General N. w.
Gary and Major Ernest Gary. At the
close of the charge of Judge .Aldrich,
which was elaborate, fair and impartial,
the Jury retired and after an absence of
twenty-five minutes returned with YER
dict of acquittal. The cases of the State
against A. A. Glover and of the State
against St. Julien Bland for assault and
battery with intent to kill were mol
pressed this morning.

When it was thought the funding bill
would pass, some of the National Banks
attempted to prod'ce financial crisis,
in order to defeat the bill, by returning
their circulation and Withdrawing the
bonds they had on deposit with the
United States Treasurer. By this reduc-
tion Of the circulation they thought to
deter Congress from passing the bill, and
now that the bill has failed they want to
put their bonds back and withdraw their
notes for circulation. The Secretary of
the Treasury has, however, refused to
allow the withdrawal. As the banks
returned their notes voluntarily, he sees
no reason to return them. The govern
meat is not to be made a play-thing Of
in that way. Mr.. Window will give
these banks leisure in which to repent of
their haste.

this city, whose practice consists mainly
of Interior Department cases, brought
suit to-day in the District Circuit Court
against Carl schurz, ex-Secretary of the
Interior, for $2OO,0O0 damages upon the
alleged ground that Schurz, without any
just cause, disbarred him from practice
in the Department of the Interior in
April last, and thus broke up legal
business whose profits Gilmore estimate
at $40, 900 per annum. The disbarment
of Gilmore was the result of an investi-
CATION in which, as alleged, it appears
that Gilmore had been bribing one Of the
clerks of the Land Office. In his CON-
plant, Gilmore denies that be was ever
guilty of any dishonest, fraudulent or
improper act.

Cameron, of Wisconsin, who is certainly
not gifted with any unusual ability. At
the expiration of his Senatorial term on

Senate, in consequence of being beaten
for the next term by Mr.. Philetus Saw

Carpenter died, and Cameron was elected
to fill his vacancy, which will keep him
in the Senate until March 4th, 1885. He
will fill Carpenters seat but cannot take

a syndicate of New York bankers are
said to have offered the new Secretary Of
the Treasury, Mr.. Window, to float the
government bonds which are soon to
mature at the low rate of three per
centum per annum until Congress meets
and has time to arrange for new loan.
This is generous in the bankers, and it
shows the correctness of the rate fixed
upon in the late funding bill, which was
vetoed by President Hayes. 1t also
shows that government bonds will float
at par on three per cent. interest without
the compulsory feature which was at
tempted in the fifth section Of the late
bill. 1t may, therefore, very safely be
assumed that the rate of interest on the
next government bonds will not exceed
three per cent.

elevated, it must be through change of
leaders. This is the problem for solution
at the hands of the new administration.
The President seems to understand it,
and it now remains to be seen whether
he has the moral courage to grapple with
it. We believe that Gen. Garfield in
tends to be the President Of the whole
people, and shall continue in this belief
until the contrary is shown by his official
acts. As ne have said, his appointment
of Federal officials in the South will, in
large measure, indicate which way the
question will be finally solved.

8. COMMISSIONERS OF AGR1cULTURE.

A spirited contest is being Naged for
the position of Commissioner of Agri'
culture at Washington. The applicants
are the present incumbent, General VIM.
LeDuc, and ex.Congfessman Loring, of
Massachusetts, and FELTON,, of Georgia.
The present incumbent, however, seems
to have the inside track. In reply to a
question from the correspondent of the
Atlanta Constitution upon the subject of
his continuance, he said /:
"My appointment is like that of the
Commissioner of Education, who has
held his place IL or Is years, and is con-
tinued upon the favor of the President."
"Do you not upon the incoming of
new administration tender your resigna.
ton, as the cabinet officers do, as mat
ter of courtesy 2" asked the correspon-
dent.
"Certainly not" said the Commission.
er; "that rule only applies to the Presi-
dents immediate advisers. If the de.
:partment of agriculture we're cabinet
position, it would follow that should
tender my resignation"
We do not think the present Commis.
sioner as efficient as the head of so i'm
portant a department should be, but it
must be admitted that he is an improve
ment upon the past Commissioners that
we have had. The trouble is that the
Department is but little more than a
political machine to retain certain men
in Office, and before the appointment Of
Gen. LeDuc it was decidedly worthless.
he has to some degree improved it, and
il let alone will probably render it still
more beneficial to the class in whose in
terest it was nominally created. At
least we are inclined to think that Messrs.
Loring and FELTON, are both too much of
politicians to be placed in charge of
the Agricultural Department. President
Garfield will do well to let the present
incumbent alone, unless he can find some
man to appoint on account Of his agri-
cultural record, instead of through SYM
pathy for defeated politician.
