Our neighbor of the Southern Literary Gazelle
indulges in the following sensible reflections on
this subject:
“ We have something to say to a very numerous
ass of people—the subscribers of newspapers ; and
i there are some among our own readers who have

, we shall take the liberty of speaking out—trust
ing that those of our patrons who are not included
in our remarks, will pardon them, and that those
who are, will profit by them.
“ In the first place, then, we would have some
subscribers to newspapers learn the very obvious
truth that it is one thing to find fault with a journal,
and another thing to conduct it with more ability
and discretion. There are persons who really fan
cy, we suppose, that if they were only in the Edito
rial chair, they would make a newspaper, the trans-
cendaut merit of which should extort praise from
every reader, and which should be not only in gen
eral, but in the minutest particular, a model of ex
cellence ! We simply beg leave to express our con-
ion, that such persons manitest a perfect igno- of

Gen. Taylor’* Cabinet.
The Washington correspondent of the Charles* I
ton Courier, undeT date of the 10th instant, writes: ]
u Though very little is now said as to the Cabinet
of Gen. Taylor, and though it is known that ho
will not make up his mind as to more than one Cab* |
inet appointment before he arrive* here, yet it ia
confidently asserted that he has determined to take
one member of the Cabinet from New England, one
from Pennsylvania,one from Kentncby^ind one from
Georgia, a>.d none from New York or Louisiana, as
those States have the President and Vice President.
As to the member from New England, I learn that ef
forts have been made by some of the Taylor Whigs of
the E ist to induce Gen. Taylor to take Mr. Webster,
f, indeed, he would accept the office, aa Secretary j
of State, and that pthecs are urging Mr. Evans H
but Mr. Lawrence will probably be the Cabinet ofl
ficer from New England, and at the head of the]
Treasury department.”
