Neariyeveiy nortnem we open contains speculations in reference of Gen. Grant's Cabinet, idely differ in their casts, no vo' agreeing npou the same men for the respective Cabinet positions ail accord in one respect, and that ie in excluding the South from all participation in the new 'Administra tion. The NgwYork Tribune, which assumes to speak with something of authority, says: The present Cabinet, except Gen. Scho field; having in the main given their influence toward the election of Seymour and Blair, it ffepsanmed that an entire new Cabinet will be forjMjpL But among the statesmen of the couiHry, -Who have never held- Cabinet' posi tions there are few who enjoy such a pre- S ence in any special department of states- hip as to point them out for particular places in the Cabinet General Schofield, Cx-Secretary Stanton, General Sherman, General Sheridan and General Thomas are, u ~ps, equally available for the post of War. Mr. Sumner, Charles ztFrancia Adams, Mr. Trumbull, General Dix, Mr. BancVbft and Mr. Motley are among the jmaeg suggested for Secretary of State. The more ’important office of Secretary of the , T’rdfisury naturally suggests the names of -• Benjamin F. Wade, Governor Fenton, Governor Boutwell, and Senators Morgan, Sherman, Conkling and Morrell/ and Mr. 'Wadhbtirne. If Gen. Grant should fail in composing an able Cabinet it will not be for want of ad visers. It is not, therefore, in the belief that our counsel is needed that we make the fol lowing suggestion. The Bepublican party have steadily claimed to be the party of the Union. The recon struction of the Union has been the object of their special concern and peculiar solicitude during the past' three years. Regarding - the “GEY. GRANT AS PRESIDENT.” The Army and Navy Journal, which has through the campaign spoken in relation to Ghaut in anauthoritativo tone,' discusses his probable course now that he is elected to the Presidency. It refers Jo ins candid and dis passionate view regarding the South set forth in his official report on the situation soon after peace was declared, and to the terms of p, then adds: " 'Gen. Grant, we rep re-establishment of -the Union as. paramount to every, other political consideration, in their efforts to accomplish it, they’have scrupled at no sacrifice of money, at the exercise of no power within or outside of the Constitution. They claim that their reconstruction plan is a success—that reconstruction is in fact ac complished and all that remains to renderit complete, harmonious and enduring, is the acquiescence of the people of the reconstruct ed States. They claim the result of the re cent election as a verdict of-: the people of the whole Union in favor of finality and peace. It is true that some of the more extreme Rad icals, those of the Wendell Phillips, But- leb and Forney school, want still more re construction. Bat the more conservative men of the party with Gen. Grant, regarding the Union as restored, say, “Let us have peace.” If then, the Republican parly recognizes the Union as re-established, it can only be as a Union of equal States, with equal rights in the government, and eqnal duties, responsi bilities and privileges of all the citizens of all the States; and if. General Grant desires unity, concord and peace, it is with him as the head of the government of,a restored Union to initiate the era of restored fraternity, mutual confidence and good feeling. It devolves on him in his high position, where magnanimity cannot be mistaken for servility, to extend the olive branch—to set the noble example of earnest reconciliation. The first step to wards the accomplishment of his mission of peace should be to unsectionalize the Govern ment, to recognize the restored equality of the States by comprehending them in the distribution of the offices of honor and trust. Such a policy on his part would do more to restore the national unity than all the arbi trary enactments that a proscriptive and vin dictive Congress could devise. In pursuance of this magnanimous, just and patriotic policy, General Gbant would call men to his Cabinet whose patriotism, wisdom and con servative statesmanship have shown conspicn- ous. in the councils of the nation in the past, and whose eminent abilities and influence would add strength and dignity to his admin istration. There are such statesmen in the Sopth; who are-still remembered with admi- miration by the whole country, and whose high characters have survived the strife and discord of the late unhappy struggle. Among them we may name Hon. Alexandeb H. Ste phens and Ex-Gov. Hebschet, V. Johnson, of Georgia, either of whom would adorn the Cabinet of the restored Union. The Tribune has declared itself for universal amnesty and manhood suffrage. Now that its party has established manhood suffrage, for the present at least, in Georgia, will it not consent to favor universal amnesty and equality in-the Union? If so, will it not allow ns to indulge in speculations about General Gbani’s Cabinet? it, is by nature a well- r that balanced, calm, moderate.-'OcmseEsativa Such will he appear as President, and those who contemplate his being either a tool or a tyrant reckon without their' host. -Next we may count on Gen. Grant’s administration being of an exceedingly practical character. This is the essential character of his own mind. * * Gen. Grant, without making a great noise about it, will wim to. make his ad ministration generally useful by economy, by honesty, by sound judgment and common sense. _ ' j' . Hia Cabinet will be selected with a view to render lijm assistance in this practical way. The measures he will recommend to Congress will be entirely of this sort. The finances and the civil service will be among the fore most of general political subjects to rece attention, and we may safely predict that i great word of the hour, the great feature to strike all observers, as soon as Gen. Grant has been a month in power, will be the con fidence inspired in people of all parties and all political creeds. Grant, as a soldier, understands well the bounds of co-ordinate and subordinate au thority. Congress will not be suffered to en croach nponhia prerogatives as the Execu tive, nor he attempt to encroach upon Con gress as the legislative department ofthe Government A soldier is used both to com mand and obey—an admirable training, say what civilians will, for any administrative of fice, from pound-keeper up to President We'shall make bold uj predict that he will realize more than any man who has sat in the Chief Magistrate’s chair since Andrew Jack- son, the Executive idea which should be the central idea connected with the Presidency. If Gqn. Gbant will realize this idea, says the Albany Argus, if he will assert the func tions of the Executive: office so asto see that the laws are faithfully executed by subordi nates, he will fulfill a great task. In no country in the world are officials so corrupt, so disproportionately paid for services, and lax in the fulfilment of duties. Take the department of internal revenue lor instance. Between the large quantity of property that escapes taxation, altogether or in part, and the expense of the service, and the sums lost by extortion and connivance of officials, and the whole makes an aggregate eqnal to the total expense of Government. If Gen. Gbant’s military education will en able him* to hold his subordinates to duty and strict accountability, he will render a memor able service to the American people. Now is the time to set: about this great reform, and to put a stop to abuses that have for years been culminating till they have at last reach ed a heighth that overshadows the land.

The meeting was addressed by -Colonel A. S. Buford, President of the Richmond and Atlanta Con solidated Air Line Railroad, and i>y Senator Miller, Dr. John Collier and Hon. J. L. Dunning.

THE ELECTORAL VOTE FOR GRANT : AND SEYMOUR, ■ - A singular movement is said to be on foot by certain politicians, having in view the casting of the Democratic electoral votes for Gbant. We agree with the Cincinnati En quirer that the movement is indeed ' “singu lar,” even in these “singular,” times. Its au thors have not reflected upon the fact that the electors aforesaid are but agents, casting not their own votes, hnt the votes of the peo ple. Every Democratic elector is under the strongest of moral pledges to the people to vote for Seymour and Blaib. Before he can be released from that pledge, he would con sider himself as an honest man,under obli gations to consult the constituency which elected him. This being a process some what difficult, if not impossible in its na ture, is not only not likely to be adopted by the electiors, but will not be entertained. The idea npon which it is based, that it might infinence General Gbant'to pursue a conservative course, is also absurd. The Democracy will have more infinence with Gen. Gbant by pursuing the dignified policy of adhering strictly to their organization, and at the same time bring it to his support upon all questions where * he pursues a course that will inure to the welfare of the country. General Gbant might appreciate an independent support so rendered, while he would spurn any result likely to flow from the suggestion above made, which is in the nature of a bribe to conciliate the supposed prejudices of the President elect. * S g; ;■—; ri ANOTHER NEGRO CONVENTION. A call has been issued to the colored peo ple to send delegates to Washington on In auguration Day, to return thanks to “the great party of progress. ”^If they are no better treated than they were at Philadelphia, on the occasion of the “Boys in-Blne,” they will mot return with very elevated ideas of the paternal sentiment of the great party of pro gress.

Immigration—A Pboposjuon.—The follow ing suggestion and proposition, says the Atlanta Constitution, comes from one of Georgia’s truest sons raid best thinkers. The time has arrived when the question presented should be considered by our people, and we hope the proposition will awaken them to a full appreciation of the situation and action in the premises: Van Weet, ; November 5, 1868.

Charleston has ever been famous for its conservatism. The observance of law and order is a noted characteristic of the white population. They regarded proprieties. The circumstances and conduct of the late municipal election has been the severest test to which our people have ever been pat, and we do not hesitate to say, that, for patience - forbearance, amiability and Christian meek ness nnder the strongest provocations, they stand without rivals in the South, the United States and the world at . large. So much to satisfy our malignera concerning our capacity for self-control—a virtue of this region. At the polls of the city in the guise of deputy sheriffs, special police, etc., were stationed Badical bullies with and without clubs and badges. These men of peace sys tematically and carefully questioned and badgered colored voters. Tickets were snatched from them, if not Badical, and the green eagle of Fillsbury authoritatively sub stituted. Rough words and infimidation by manner were applied beforehand, to deter, and jeers and objurgation,' and sometimes blows and violence as a punishment, after the “Citizens’ Ticket” had been voted. And the white men did not put a stop to these Radical proceedings, because if a row had been the result and negroes had been slaughtered, our people would have' been called “rebellious and revolutionary!” In addition to the bold interference prac tised by the colored Radicals with the voting of freedmen desirous of. polling the Citizens’ Ticket, numerous illegal votes were put in the boxes and counted. Boys under age and men from the country not domiciled in Charleston but brought here to register and vote, have added to the high-handed illegality of this election. Such is Badical freedom, and this is a specimen of the peace we are to have. But our people protest against the conduct and results of the election.—Charleston Mercury. More Cannibalism in Algeria. A fearful case of cannibalism has just come to light in Algeria. One Ben Nacer recently had a cow stolen from his field, and suspi cion having fallen on an Arab named Ben Aissa, search was made on bis premises. Nothing of the missing animal was, however, found; but on looking into a bush a little dis tance from the house, a basket fall of pieces of meat was discovered. The wife, of Ben Aissa immediately stammered ont that they were the remains of a donkey which her hus band had killed the preceding night. But she did not long persist in that story; for on the basket being turned topsy-turvy, a num ber of feet and hands tumbled ont! Three heads which had been singed were next dis covered in the same spot! The remains hav ing been collected together,' they were imme diately recognized by Ben Nacer and his coni: panions as those of a woman named Ben Youssefand her two children. The clothes of the victims were next found' hidden in the same bosh a little further o£ Fatima Ben Aissa, being pressed to give some explana tion of the afiair, made the following terrible confessions: “My children and 1 had not eaten anything for several days, when the twin brothers Mohammed Ben Ail and Ka- dour Ben Ali came to ns to propose that we should kill and eat the children of Fatima Ben Youssef, aged six and eight years.

I also flayed the three heads and put them where they have just been found.” , All the parties concerned in this horrible afiair have been arrested. As usual in such cases, they each deny being the actual murderer, and endeavor to throw the crime on anybody’s shoulders but their own. ' . ». 9<m> < *——— .Selma to Liverpool, via Charleston, S. C.

BMMn To tiie 1 ' r, ~ £ -J A fjr When the pure medicinal restorative, now so widely >nn rtnown aa Wolfe’s Schiedam Schnapps, was introduced their applications t e -f n t n tho world nnder the endorsement of four thou sand leading members o f the medical profession some 20years ago, its proprietor was well aware that it could not wholly escape the penalty attached to all new and naefiil preparations. He, therefore, endeav ored to invest it with strongest possible safeguards against counterfeiters, and to render all attempts to pirate it difficult and dangerous. It was submitted to distinguished cheininsts for analysis, and pronounced by them the purest spirit ever manufactured. Its pu rity and properties having been thus ascertained, sam ples of the article were forwarded to ten thousand physicians, including all the leading practitioners in the United States, for purposes of experimen., A circular, requesting a trial ofthe preparation and are- port of the result, accompanied each speciment. Four thousand of the most eminent medical men in the Union promptly responded. Their opinions of the article were unanimously favorable. Such a prepara tion, they said, had long been wanted by the profes sion, as no reliance could be placed on the ordinary liquors of commerce, all of which were more or less adulterated, and therefore unfit for medical purposes. The peculiar ppI gu apfl strength of the oil of juni per, which formed one of the principle ingredients of the Schnapps, together with an unalloyed character of the alcoholic element, give it, in the estimation of the faculty, a marked superiority over every other diffusive stimulant as a diuretic tonic and restorative. These satisfactory credentials from professional men of the highest rank were published in a con densed form, and enclosed with each bottle of the Schnapps, as one.of the guarantees of its genuine ness. Other precautions against fraud were also adopted; a patant was obtained for the article* the lable was copywrighted, a fac simile of the proprietor* s autograph signature was attached to each lable and cover, his name and that of the preparation were em bossed on the bottles, and the.corks were sealed with his private seal. No article had ever been sold in tills country nnder the name of Schnapps prior to the in troduction of Wolfe’s Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps, in 1851; and the lable was deposited, as his trademark, in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York during that year; It might be supposed by persons unacquainted with the daring character of the pirates who prey npon the reputation of honorable merchants by -tending delete rious trash nnder their name, that the protections so carefully thrown around these Scnnapps would have precluded the introductions and sale of counterfeits., They seem, however, only to haye stimulated the rapacity of impostors. The trade mark of the proprie tor has been stolen; the indorsement which his Schie dam Aromatie Schnapps alone received from the medi cal profession has been claimed by mendacious hum bugs; his labels and bottles have been imitated, his ad vertisements paraphrased, his circulars copied, and worse than all, dishonorable retailers, after disposing ofthe genuine contents of his bottles, have filled them np with common gin, the most deleterious of all liquors, and thus made his name and brand a cover. for poison. . . , . ... The public, the medical profession and the sick, for whom the Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps is prescribed as a remedy, are equally interested with the proprie tor in the detection and suppression of these nefari ous practices. The genuine article, manufactured at the establishment of jthe undersigned, in-Schiedam, Holland, is distilled from a barley bf the finest quality, and flavored with an essential extract of the berry of the Italian juniper, of unequalled purity. By & process unknown in tiie preparation bf any other'liquor, it is freed from every acrimonious arid corrosive element. Complaints have , been received from the leading physicians and families in'the Southern States of the sale of cheap imitations of the Schiedam Aromatic: Schnapps in those markets; and travellers, who are in frhn habit of using it as an antidote to the baneful in fluence of unwholesonm river water, testify that cheap gin, put rip in Schiedam botfles, is frequently palmed; off upon tiie unwary. The agents of the undersigned have been requested to institute inquiries on the sub ject, and to forward to him tho names of such parties as they may ascertain to' be engaged in tiie atrocious system of deception. . In conclusion, the undersigned' would say that he has produced, from under the bands of the most distinguished men of science iri' America, proofs unanswerable of the purity and medicinal ex cellence of the Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps; that he has expended numy thousand dollars in surrounding it vpth guarantees. $md safeguards/which he designed should protect the public and himself against fr&dulent imitations; that ho has shown it to be the only liquor in the world.that can bo unifprmly depended npon as unadulterated; that he has challenged investigation, analysis, comparison, and experiment to all its forms: and from every ordeal the preparation which bears his name, seal arid trade mark, has come off triumphant! He therfore feels it a duty he owes to his fellow-citizens ally,-to the medical profession and the sick; to denounce arid expose the charlatans who counterfeit these evidences of identity, and he calls upon the press and the public to aid him to his efforts to remedy so great an evflL ‘t* *' . v / / The following letters and certificates from the leading physicians and chemists of this city will prove to the reader that all goods sold by tho undersigned axe all they are represented to be: aut&f's i UDOLPHO WOLFE.

D., Pharmaceutical Chemist, New York. 26 Pine Steeet, New Yobs Nov. 21,1867. Udolpho Wolfe, Esq., Present: Deab Shi: I have made a chemical examination of a sample of your Schiedam Schnapps, with the intent o$ determining if any foreign or injurious substance ^ud been* added to the simple distilled spirits. The examination has resulted in the conclusion that the sample contained no poisonous or harmful admix ture. I have been unable to discover any trace of the deleterious substances which srp employed to the adulteration of liquors. I would not hesitate to nse myself or to recommend to Others, for medical pur poses, the Schiedam Schnapps as on excellent and un objectionable variety of gin. • . Very respectfully yours, (Signed) OHAS. A. SEELY, Chemist. New. Yobk, 63 Cedab Stbeet, November 26, 1867. ,, Udolpho Wolfe, Esq., rresent: Deab Sm: I bave submitted to chemical analysis two bottles of “Schiedam Schnapps,” which I took from a fresh package in your bonded warehouse, and find, as before, that the spirituous liquor is free from injurious ingredients or falsification; that it has the marks of being aged and not recently prepared by mechanical admixture of alcohol and aromatics. Respectfully, FRED. F. MAYER, Chemist. New Yobk, Tuesday, May L Udolpho Wolfe, Esq.: Deab Sib: Tho want of pure Wines and Liquors for medicinal purposes has been long felt by the profes sion, and thousands of lives have been sacrificed by the use of adulterated articles. Delirium tremens, and other diseases of the brain and nerves, so rife to this - country, are very rare in Europe, owing, in a great degree, to the difference to the purity of the spirits sold. . We have tested the several articles imported and sold by you, including yonr Gin, which yon sell un der the name of Aromatic Schiedam Schnapps, which we consider justly entitled to the high reputation it has acquired in this country; and from your long ex- jerience as a foreign importer,your Bottled Wines and liquors should meet with tho same demand.- /_ We would recommend you to appoint some of the respectable apothecaries in different parts of the city as agents for the sale of vopr Brandies and Wines, where the profession cap obtain the same when need ed for medicinal purposes. Wishing you success to your new enterprise, 1 Wk We remain yonr obedient servants, VALENTINE MOTT, M. D.,Professor of Surgery, Uni versity Medical College, New York. J. M. CARNOCHAN, M.
