WASHINGTON. Dec. 1.-THE cabinet
changes are still under discussion. There
is, however, no change in the situation as
described in these dispatches, a few days
ago. It is pretty certain that Folger will
step out. His place is now demanded by
Cameron man, and he may get it. Old
Simon left his vicar of Wakefield at home,
and is doing nothing but fixing things po
litically. The latest rumor is that Lincoln
will get the British mission. Lincoln is
said to have refused the position during
the last period of dissatisfaction. He has
since revised his decision. The hint has
been given him that ministers to the court
of st. James sometimes become presi
dents, and Arthur is perfectly willing to
further his aspirations by sending him
abroad. Everything points to the recon-
struction of the cabinet on the plan in
tended in these dispatches some time ago.
The wire pullers are hard ct work here,
and changes may occur at any moment.
THE CHINESE LAW.
Secretary Folger to-day made decision
on a.novel point, made respecting the OPP
eraticn of the Chinese lew. Some months
ago a Chinaman, then living in Pitts
burgh, left for the home of his birth, an
nouncing that he was about to be married,
and that he proposed to return with his
bride to this country. Secretary Folger
says if zee OFT, for such is the Celest1ars
name, returns to this country with non
resident, she will not be allo we'd to remain,
even though she be the wifi 9 of one who
would be if he returned alone.
THE OFFICES IN THE HOUSE.
Messrs. Blackburn and Carlisle, of Ken
lucky, Hammond, of Georgia, Atkins, of
Tennessee, and several other aspirants for
the Offices in the next house of representa-
tives, forget that Northern Democrats are
going to be IN majority, and Southern
Democrats are not going to get all the
offices. If Mr.. Atkins, of Tennessee, is
elected clerk, neither one of the Kentuck-
ians nor Mr.. Hammond will be elected
speaker, and there is now very strong
probability that Mr.. Atkins will get the
clerkship of the Northwestern candidates.
Mr.. Randall has SO much opposition that
few believe that he can get the speaker
ship. The result is that Mr.. Springer is
not only a candidate, but he is candidate
with strong prospect of success. It is
not fact, however, that Mr.. Atkins is
running for the clerkship in the interest Of
Mr.. Randall. He is running in his own in
terest, and is making no trades or comb
nations.
scHEMING FOB HARMONY.
The political cauldron continues to boi
and bubble. Rumors are as plenty a
