week, and ,349 head the correspond
ing week of last year.
The market on the Hill to-day has
been greatly demoralized. The Of

could not dispose of all their offerings
and will hold over or reship East
their balances. The quality of the
tops was rather superior to last week.

medium and common cattle. Dealers
generally report tops as being off &c.,

weeks rates. Prices 24(96c., most
sales ranging from to SIC.

Same time last year sheep sold at 3(G

To show how West Texas impressed our
Illinois visitors, who were here with the Sep
TENDER excursion, we take the following from
the Mendoza (Ill.) Reporter:
OUR TEXAS ExcURsIoNIsTs
Last Monday r. M. Dewey returned from
Texas, where he went in the interest Of the
Mendoza Texas Land Company. He is de-
lighted with the section he visited, and says
one-half its beauties, resources and advantages
have not been told. He visited Western
Texas. He says the soil is fertile and vegeta-
tation aourishing and luxuriant. For an agri-
cultural country It is unsurpassed. Emigrants
are pouring in by the hundred and taking ad-
vantage Of the moderate price for which land
is selling.
Mr.. Dewey brought back number of
specimens Of native grass, the texture Of
which is as fine as the grasses of Illinois.
Plenty Of game there. Vast herds Of antelope
afford ample sport for the hunter. If man
does not like game so large, he can spend his
owls. The Mendoza Texas Land Company
have at their Office specimens Of soil that Mr..
Dewey secured while in Texas. II is not as
black, but about as productive as Illinois soil.
Our Postmaster, who accompanied Mr..
Dewey, was so delighted with the country,
that he purchased section in Martin county,
in which the Mendoza Colony will probably
locate. Land is selling for about 81 an acre.
Ten years from now il will be worth at least
$2s per acre. Water there is frst-class, equal
to that Of Wisconsin. The atmosphere is
pure and bracing; the nights are cool. The
elevation OF Martin county is about 1880 feet

1t is true that Congress does very little

proper consideration. 1t is certain that
Congress knows very little about what
there is in some of the appropriation
bills, because they were passed in such a
hurry that they can not be scanned
closely. 1t is proposed to pass the sun
dry civil bill under a suspension of the
rules and the river and harbor bill

and for want of time. Mr.. WinthrOp's

Mr. yyintbrop,s Surgestion

Robert {. Winthrop, in his Grafton at
the dedication OF the Washington monu-
ment. suggested that in future the Presi-
dent should be inaugurated on April 30
instead of March 4. The reason for his
suggestion was that the first President
took the oath of office on April 80. \
writer in the New York san gives other
reasons as follows: "The short session
Of Congress is now always too brief for
the proper transaction OF the public busl-
ness, as every other winter shows. In
fact, every year shows it; for the rush
and recklessness with which many wise
measures are slaughtered and many fool
ish ones driven through whenever a Con-
gress is to come TO an end on March 4,
are not more significant than the fact that
in the alternate years, when Congress can
proceed at leisure, the session usu-
ally lasts till near midsummer
at least. The common cry that
Congress always sits too long,
and should finish its business every
year in couple of months and go home,
is superficial and foolish. The founders
of the republic had no such views, and in
our day Congress has to legislate for
peonle. not OF i've, but flfty-fve millions,
whose property has increased prodigious-
~ in a century, and whose inhabited area
is not mainly a seaboard strip, but land
stretching across the continent. The
business Of the people ought TO be trans
acted for them by their Representatives

MIR. Cleveland and His Cabinet.

1t Is not probable that Mr.. Cleveland
will announce his Cabinet until he has
been inaugurated. In fact, he is reported
as saying that he will not. There are
+ good reasons for thinking that he has not
made up his mind with respect to bis
/ Cabinet. and if he has it will be wise not
{ t. make the names OF those selected pub
/ lie until he is President.
To announce the members of his Catd-
net now would he to expose Them 10 a
great deal of unjust, and even harsh,
criticism. There isn't man in public
life perhaps who hasn't political enemies,
and whose appointment to a nigh office
would not arouse jeal5usies.
All of those who are supposed to have
been selected for Cabinet places have
been attacked. OF Bayard it is said that
he knows nothing Of diplomacy, and is
not nj all familiar with the political
affairs al o.her nations. 1t is charged
that Garland's opinions vita reference to
the great questions which grow out of our
system If Government are not in harmony
with those which are entertained by his
partv. Ii is said that Lamar IS dreamer,
tantion to the business which will de-
v0!ve on him as a Cabinet officer. 1t is
alleged that Manning knows nothing OF
financial questions, and is totally unac-
quainted with tariff matters. Villas, the
critics saw. has nothing to recommend
him but rather eloquent tongue. This IS
the sort OF criticism that is lavished upon
about every man who has been spoken OF
in connection with Mr.. Cleveland's Cabl-
net. The character of the criticisms
shows that they are not based on correct
information, are not the result Of careful
thought. and are not the product of I'M
biased and unparalleled minds.
TIE purpose of some of the harsh things
that appear in Democratic papers is to
prevent the appointment OF several Of
those whose names has been conspicu-
ouslv mentioned for Cabinet places, and
the purpose Of other things is simply TO
crafty feeling of envy or jealousy.
A great deal is being said about the ca
pacity Of this or that man to look after
the details Of great department. As a
matter OF fact what the President wants
in his Cabinet officers is not capacity to
do clerical work, but ability to advise MIN
in important matters pertaining TO the
administration of the government. They
must be able, of course, to direct the al
fairs Of their departments with intelli-
gence and skill, but there are
plenty of competent and care
fully trained subOrdinates to look
after details and routine matters The
Treasury is the only department where
there are OnerOus and exacting duties to
perform. An hour a day, or less, is sui
ticient t. discharge all the Guties that the
Secretary OF state has to perform, and no
one has ever suspected that the present
Secretaries of War, Navy, Interior, or the
Attorney General and Postmaster Gen.
eral are overworked. The absence Of
any one of these officials for days, and
even weeks, occasions no great incon-
venience. II Cabinet officer is a wise
counsellor, there will not be much ocea-
sion to find fault with him if be fails to in
spect each bureau and division IN his de-
partment daily.
