There is 4 great deal of speculation
both among republicans and demo-
Gratis in regard to Gen. Harrison's
cabinet. IL is too early to discuss
the matter, and all guesses as to
whom the new presidents advisers
will be may be very wide of the mark
1t may be safe to suppose that Mr..
Blaine, Senator Sherman and Warner
Miller can have places if they desire
it. Vermonters are talking of Red
field Proctor for Postmaster General.
This would certainly be a wise choice
if made. Col Proctor's business meth
ods. his strong good sense, and his
power to do exceIlently well every
thing that he undertakes, would make
him a most efficient man in this place
Vermont would feel the honor thus
bestowed, while the government would
have one important branch of busi-
ness in the best of hands.

We learn that Or. O.. Benedict of
Burlington is being talked about as a
fit man to have the office Of Collector
of Customs for Vermont, when the
time shall come for change. Mr..
Benedict is a gentleman who possess
es all necessary qualifications for the
position, and his standing in the state
is such that no one would care to
bring any objections against him.
There are several who will seek the
position. We understand that Gen
w. W. Henry is an aspirant for the
place. Gen. Henry is well-known in
Vermont, and has great many
friends who would be pleased if he
should receive this important and lu-
crative position under the new ad-
ministratiOn.

The Legislature closed its labors
last Wednesday morning. While 1t
did many very commendable things,
it was extravagant in appropriations.
Everybody and every object seeking
money and aid seemed to be fortu-
nate in getting it.

Would Grow in St Martin Too.

We take the following article from the
Algiers Press, and it shows what could
be raised in Louisiana:
There's butter plant over in Africa.
The fruit is boiled. and the butter comes
out sweet, white and good, and will keep
ever so long. There's bread-fruit tree
also, and we believe there's a milk tree
too. Bring'em to La. Almost every thing
will grow here. Just think-tO have
bread. butter and milk growing in your
garden! Then you can add bee hive or
two and have honey right here in Algiers.
Let us see how many edible things will
thrive here: Sugar, rice, corn Of all
kinds, sweet and irish potatoes, squash
es, kershaws, egg plants, tomatoes, cab
bages, caulifOwers, tOrnips. beets, car
rOts, parsnips, Okra, peas, beans. celery,
cucumbers, strawberries, blackberries,
raspberries, yhortleberries, cassadas,
oranges, figs, peaches, pears, apples,
plums, grapes, persimmons, citrons, ba-
nanas, water melons. cantelOpes, and we
know not what else. The tea plant and
the pecan tree flourish here well, Le-
mon trees will grow here-we have one
in our yard-but severe winters kill
them"
Now suppose We go to work and cul-
tivate the vegetables enumerated in the
foregoing and bring them to our can
ming factory which will soon be in oper-
alton, and get fair living price for
your products would it not pay better
than that uncertain cotton crop? Let us
try il.
