I'j .would fcfcm from :i most from casual observation that the present cabinet system. & totally inade quate to the present wants of the country. The history of United States cabinets YOuld, jf written, be a curious one. From a trium virate forming a .ort of second Presidency in tlie early days of the Republic, it grew to its present inferior dimensioiand stopped growing giving an illustration of arrested development several years ago. At present the sever al secretaries -are so over crowded vrith business in their several departments that the interests o -the country suffer thereby- -Take for -instance, the department of agriculture, tucked away -in one corner of the jurisdic tion of the Interior Secretaryship, when, in point of fact, it should be erected into" a .separate branch and begiveri"by reason of its im-i portance a secretary to manage j and direct the agricultural inter cuts of the country. The patent j office, the Indian question, affairs of internal, revenue are among the many duties imposed upon the ocretary of the interior, who, if a common mortal, must, of neces sity, neglect .some of his multifa rious charges. An enlargment of the cabinet is among the preying necessities of the da'. An English View. Thk Westminster Review for j October ha4 an article on the Irish Land Act and the English land question that has attracted con siderable attention. It shows that landlordism in Jreland is of a com paratively modern growth. The writer tates that at the time of the accession of Elizabeth to the English throne Ireland was free from landlordism; the land was cultivated by the people in com mon' Landlordism was already in existence in England, and was causinir icvolt after revolt of the impoverished laborers, and the Irish communal land system, being enidered un-English, wa put down during that leign. Many of the Irish people were meanwhile dispersed; their lands were taken from them" and given to the Eng lish and Scotch settlers, and thus cttne about the establishment for thrt fust time of landlordism in Ireland,, the spoliation of the Irish cultivaiois, and the crea tion of a debt ol hatred against England which has sToiih on increasing to this dav. 'I'he writer does not believe j the new land act will work sue eessfiillv. He is in favor of ex- J propriation; of having the govern ment gradualby buy out tho land lords; and let the laud in small parcels rn cultivate at moderate rents. Expropriation is being much discussed in England now, Hfiil Mr. Gladstone has declared that'., for an adequate public it is j admissible, and a far sound in jnineiples. '" TJieC3tLTll Conffres. Thk Congress which meets not. .Montuu convenes under anomalous circumstances. Among the firt-t iiuestions wilt he the political one of ortraniutien: both houses being almost a tie, the Republicans hav in tho advantage. In the House, the " tight for the Speakership is narrowing down between Iliscock anj'vatsen: the Mngular argu menf'be'ing used by adherent of Hi-cocUthat Kassson i too able a debater to be spared from the floor. Representatives Paul and Flulkcrsoif. though elected as 'Greeu backers,' will act with the Republicans, thus giving them 148 Mnemberslahd a cleir majority of - three. Senator KelIe2T: of Lotiisi 1 ana claims tne nonor ol lirst sug gesting that David Davis be made President of the Senate. He and Davis were old friends, and were Lincoln, electors together at Chi cago. It was Davis who gave the Louisiana Senator the fetart in the world that he has so profitably turned to account. He says that while the Republican Senators were a little doubtful about Davis as President, pxo tern, he "knew pretty well how he stood;" and it seems by the sequel that ho did.
