SURPRISE CABINETS.
New York Sun.

Nobody yet seems to know much about
the new cabinet, but such uncertainty is
not unprecedented.
Frank Pierce first offered the New York
place in his cabinet to Gen. Dix. The
Barnburners were jubilant. Pierce got
frightened, invited Dix to Andover; OBJ
tanned a release from his promise, and
then offered the New York seat to Gov
Marcy, who became secretary of state

Lincoln till the last moment Mr.. Chase
had been elected senator from Ohio. He
went to the capitol, was sworn as sena-
tor, and was in his seat when the package
from the White House appointing him
secretary of the treasury was opened be-
fore his eyes. Though he and Mr.. Lin
coin had been at Wizards hotel several
DAYS, they had not exchanged word

A RESCUE APPREHENDED.
Arrest Of Another Dyrnmiter Suspect in
England,

LONDON, Feb. 4-Cunsidcrable excite
ment was produced Tuesday by the an
nouncement that friends Of Cunningham,
accused of having causal the explosion at the
Tower OF London, were already beginning
to take steps to rescue him from Cierkea-
well prison. Early III the morning the po-
lice observed a man loi!e:inS il the vicinity
Of the prison. They watched his move
ments closely and finally when they saw
him put something in the letter box of the
governor of the prison arrested him. When
taken before u magistrate tie pris-
cner said his name was Gooiyear;
that he recently had been discharged from a
lunatic asylum. The package which the
prisoner was seen to deposit in the governors
box was found to lie small parcel Of paper
on which were Il number of figures The
police declared the prisoner was known to
them; that he had served term of impris-
onment, and that his testimony in regard
to himself was false The Scotland Yard
officials prOfesS to believe that Goodyear's
action in depositiug the paper in the box
was simply ruse on the part of Cunning
hams friends to learn what they have to
contend with in order to effect Cunning
hams release by blowing up the front of the
prison with dynamite and giving the prison
ers an opportunity to escape during the CON
fusion.

Tho Pooling in London.

LONDON, Feb. 3 The excitement caused
by the news of the attempted assassination
Of O'Donovan Rosa continues. The papers
sell like wild fire. Enormous crowds choke
the streets in front of all bureaus of infor-
nation. The hope that Patrick Ford, of
The New York Irish World, viii be the next
victim is heard on ell sides. The papers
have notified their correspondents in New
York TO continue to forward the most
elaborate details of the event The city is
fairly agog with jubilant excitement.
y correspondent asked The Standard what
it had TO say editoriaily. "Nothing-dead
or alive, he is, not worth an article was
the reply. The other papers say that there
is, of course, no sympathy for Rosa in
England; call apon Parnell to speak on the
subject of dynamite outrages, and while
deplorins assassination, remark that such

announcement of Gen. Grants first cabi-
net till it grew quite impatient. When
the names were posted on the bulletin
board in this city. the list was laughed at
as hoax. Nevertheless it was precisely
correct. Mr.. Borie, who was in Wash
ington, was so astonished at seeing his
name announced as secretary of the navy
that he jumped on the train and started
for his home in Philadelphia.

Mrs. Dudley's Identification.

LoNDoN, Feb Tho full accounts which
have been received concerning the shooting
Of O'Donovan Rosa, contained so good a
description of his assaiant that the police
authorities at Scotland Yard have succeeded
in Identifying Mrs. Dudley. They state that
some time previous to her departure for
America she attempted suicide. was charged
with the offence and sentenced to a term of
imprisonment. The chaplain of the prison,
however, became 50 interested in her case
that he petitionei the home secretary
in her behalf. She was pardoned,
and on her relea,e she went
to New York The police believe that Mrs
Dudley's attempt at suicide was probably
due to the same causes which have led up to
her attempt on Rossa's life-an over sensi-
tive nature and an uneyenly balanced
mental organism. Subscriptions have
already been started in many places in Lon
don for the purpose of defraylng the ex-
psnses of Mrs Dudley's defense, and the lists
of names are rapidly reaching proportions
which will probably result in the donation
of more money than will b. necessary.
