WASHINGTON. Ma-ch 4, 1852


o'clock, :. NJ. )


The Cabinet, It Is now conceded, has been final
ly arranged, and is as follows:


JAMES BUCHANAN, OF Penn. Secretary of State.


R.J. WALKER, Of Mississippi Secretary of Treasury.
GEORGE BANCROFT, of Mass. Secretary of Navy.


WM. l. MARCY, of New-York, Secretary ofwar.


CAVE JOHNSON, OF Tennessee, Postmaster General
JOHN W. JONES, OF Virginia, Attorney General.


This will be the Cabinet, without much doubt
If there is any doubt about ii, it is concerning the
Office Of Attorney General Dir. Mason OF VIZ
ginia the present Secretary OF the Navy, has had
it rendered 10 him and many are Of the opinion
that he will be the man. have it from reliable
authority, however, that he feels somewhat hurt al
being disturbed in his present Office and will not
accept. In case Of MS REFUSAL Speaker Jones will
have 1t, as above


The Cabinet is a curious one. 1t is understood
that Bancroft is peculiarly in favor of Mr.. Van
Buren, while Mr.. Marcy, who is from Van Buren's
own State, is looked upon with dis,rust by Vans
friends. The history of Marcy's appointment may
form an interesting para graph for some future letter


eJ- Mr.. PoLx's INAUGURAL embodles more dl-
rect untrnth than il is usual to crowd INTO docu
ment of this nature His broad assertion tbat
" Texas ,cas once ours" is con.radcted by facts o
the most paIeable notorIcty His assertion that our
Government secures liberty and opportunity 10 ALL
stands ou, in glaring contrast with the TACT that
Three Millions OF our People are by Inv denied
the right TO their own bodies may be hard worked
badly fed, cruelty treated and not paid at all, in
perfect accordance with Law, and their very wives
and children sold where they never them
again. Mr.. Polk is himself the owner OF something
like hundred Of these unfortunate beings. Now,
whether il be right or wrong that they should be
thus owned, it is certainly wrong TO fssify it, by
asserting that all are protected in their natural rights
by our institutions and laws, as Mr.. Polk does.


His poor sophistry about Annexation will deceive
no one who is not grossly ignorant of the means by
which that Annexation has been effected and the
purposes,-so manfully avowed by Calhoun, Nc
Duffie, James Hamilton, &c. &c.-for which it
was sought. Has not all aggression, from the be-
ginning Of time, been JUS; as innocent and peaceful
Us this-takiug the aggressors' word for it


On the Tariff, Mr.. Polk proves himself the same
low demagogue he has ever been. Think OF a man
who o,ons a hundred laborers, paying them no wa
ges. and keeping them poorly fed and coarsely clad,
insnuating his especial love for "the toiling milk
ions,' ami his fear that legislation may benefit "the
wealthy few" The impudence of this cant almos,
denudcs it Of hypocrisy The attempt of Polk TO
,,se again the Juggling phrases of his letter
Kane, shows him of narrower intellect than we had
supposed. These phrases answered the turn of the
candidate, bur thev are sadly out of place in the
mouth OF the President. The People expected some
declaration of his sentiments on the Tariff question,
and not a new shift for concealing them, The
poor stuff about not "taxing one section or one
class for the benefit Of another &C., elucidates
nothing, advances nothing. 1t only proves the
author incapable of comprehendlos the bases Of
true National policy. To array and balance one
thing against another-to harm one interest as little
as another is the limit of his vision. policy
which shall regard, embrace, and positively ben
eft all interests, is an idea too vas; for his little
soul. An equal distribution of burdens is the
hight of his ambition If his policy of putting low
duties on all the coarse and common nccessares
Of life, had prevailed hitherto, should be annu-
ally importing many millions worth OF Hats, Boots
Shoes, Axes, Cloths, &c &c. which are now made
much cheaper and better by our own worllmen at
home.


The mixture of verbal pley and practical knovery
in this Inaugural cannot Tail 10 disgust the right
thinking reader.--But we have no room TO speak
farther this morning
