WANT a BLACK MAN IN THE CABINET
1t ia not without reason that the negro
voters of America claim that they should
have ample recognition under he incoming
ad ADMINISTRATION. They show from election
statistics that not only in New York and Ie-
diana but in nearly every other Northern
State the republicans would be in niooii-
ty if they should break their alliance with
that party. Taking the entire election re-
turns Of the country, they show farther that
if their strength should be eliminated The
democrats would have not far from mil
lion majority in the total vote That is to
say, the democrats have nearly million
majority of the white voters of the country,
but by throwing their weight into The scale
the colored voters have brought the Fepub-
leans up 10 within 100000 less than e ma
jority ofthe entire popular vote. Uoon this
ground they demand a seat in the Harrison
Cabinet, and they have pitched on ex
S. nator Blanche K. Bruce as the man.
Win n representative of their RAGS in the
al n.inistrstion they feel thatthey would re-
ceve in the shape of appointments the f,tti
share of recognition to which their impor-
lance to the republican party entities them.

SOME Northern republican newspape's
draw favorable comparison between th~
government o th.s,and Of foreign countries.
by reason of the sm ,lluess of the American
compared with the largeness Of foreign :
mics. the former being under twenty fee
thousand, while soma Of the latter number
almost million. But stranger thing, and
one by no means complimentary to this gov
eminent, is the fact that the expenses of The
Uoited States on military account are al
most a. grea. SIS those Of the foreign gov.
ments having the largAst armies.

The friends of Governor Lee, and ell VITO

referre to be true, the Governor has any
reference to what the State democratic
committee; and the democratic members OF
the Virginia legislature. and the other Nir
GINA democrats who may meet either With
the committee or at the same time and
place. may do or say in respect OF an extra
session. as he is the Governor of.the State,
and not of party. Indeed, in the opinico
of many of the Governors truest friends,
and doubtless of the Governor himself, q
recommendation sent him by any mere po'
litical organization for an extra session OIL
the State Legislature W uld be considered
in the light Of an a1font, and be treated &c
cordiDgly, especially as by so doing the
Governor would not only benefit his State
hut the hes! interests OF his party also.

THE FACT that the Mshdi's forces are
now capturing tents ard women immedi
ately in front Of Suakip. and within gun
shot of the troops in that place, suggests the
idea that the recent reported great victory
achieved there by the British was more Of 8
newspaper than any other sort of victory,
and was gained rather in The offices Of
clerks and secretaries than on the plains OF
Egypt.

ACCORDING TO the accounts of the obser
vances of New Years Day in the many old
or cities Of tho country, it would seem that
the custom of calling on that day is rapidly
falling iu,o disuse. The fact is the custom
has beeu run into the ground, and. like !
other things ia thnt condition, has become
anything else than agreeable ; and, SO, may
as vel! be eliminated from social habits.

IT Is reported that Col. Dudley will re
ceive material recognition, either directly
or indirectly, from President elect Harrison,
in consideration Of the material assistance
the Colonel afforded him during his lite
campaign Almost every body, democrat
as we'll as repub ican, now respects Mr
Harrison, and wants to continue to respec!
him; but, if the report referred TO be true,
Mr.. Harrison would thereby confess hin sal
all plico in the election rascalities o.
which the Col stands publicly convicted and
would, therefore, necessarily lose the respect of
every right thinking man in the country. A
Pre-iaeni can better afford to do anything
else than throw an imru'atiou upon the
fairness OF his own election by rewardire
men known and generally believed to be
guilty Of uufsirness in that election.
