Th? Cabinet.
The hiatus in the formation of General
Grant's Cabinet, says the 33r.ltiuioro Sun,
has been overcome, and 'yesterday^t w aa
completed by the nomination nud conflrma
tion of ex-Governor Hamilton Fish, of New
York, aa Secretary of State; ox-Governor
George S. Boutwell, of Massachusetts, as
Secretary of the Treasury, (in lieu of A.
T. Stewart, declined,) and General Raw?
lins, late ohief of General Graut's staff, os
Secretary of War. Mr. E. B. Washburne,
of illinois, named and confirmed as Secre?
tary of State a week ago, and who, it was
understood, had accepted the posit ion only
temporarily, having withdrawn, was yester?
day confirmed to be United States Minister
to France, in place of General Dix, whose
resignation had been received previously
and accepted. General Schofield, who has
been superseded by General Rawlins, it will
be remembered, held over from the provious
administration, and remained iu the War
Office temporarily, at General Grant's in?
stance.
Ex-Governor Fish, tho Secretary of
State, is a, very wealthy citizen of New
York, formerly an old line Whig, and as
such formerly represented one of the New
York city districts in Congress during old
Whig times. He was also at one time Go?
vernor of New York. His father was tho
once celebrated New York ship master, Pre?
served Fish, Esq. Governor Fish in early
life studied law, but never practiced in the
Courts. He was also interested in mercan?
tile pursuits, in Which he embarked his
capital largely, but never gave trude his
special personal attention.
Mr. Boutwell, the new ^.Secretary of the
Treasury, was born in Brookline, Norfolk
County, Mass., January 28, 1818. He was
designed to lead a farmer's life, and had
some experience thereof while yet a lad,
but was transferred from that life to an ap?
prenticeship in the mercantile business, and
followed, os derk and proprietor, commer?
cial pursuits for about twenty years. He
then studied law, and carno to the bar some?
what late in lifo. He served sovon years in
tho Massachusetts Legislature, (between
1841 and 1850,) was a member of the Mas?
sachusetts Constitntional Convention oi
1853, also of the Peace Congress of 1861
was a bank commissioner of 1849 -50. Ir
1851-2 he was Governor of Massachusetts,
He was eleven years Seoretary of the Mas
sachusetts Board of Education, bolongec
seven years to tho Board of Oversoors o:
Harvard College, and was Comuiissionor o:
Internal Revenue from July, 18G2, to March
18G4. Ho was eleoted to the thirty-eightl
Congress in 18G2, and served on tho Judi
ciary Committee. He was also a delegate
to the Baltimore Convention of 18C4. H
was re-elected to tho thirty-ninth Congress
was in the fortieth Congress, (acting as th
foremost mau in the impeachment move
menta,) and was re-elected to tho presen
Congress.
General Rawlins, the Secretary of Wat
is known us having been active iu tho set
vice throughout the late war, at first in th
Wost and then iu the East, in counectio
with General Graut's operations.

THE CVHDEDATUBU OF THE SFANIBH
THRONE.-A communication from Madrid,
in the Paris Const?i?ionnel says:
The question of candidates for the Spanish
throno becomes every day more and moro
worthy of attention. The provisional govern -
ment'would b?'i veryi'jglad, fcefore quitting
power and placing ?ts resignation in the
bands bf the Constituent Assembly, toleavo
that problem, if not definitely solved, at
any rate in a fair way to bo readily and
satisfactorily settled. For several days
past extraordinary councils of ministers
have mot with tho solo olject of discussing
that subject and arriving at a com mou
understanding. Unfortunately divisions
have not disappeared in tho Government
itself; ont of niuo members of tho Council,
four defend the Dake of Montpelier's
claims, four those of Dom Fernaudo of
Portugal, while M. Romero Ortz keeps
aloof. The question, therefore, remains
just where it was, and no one eau fore?
see what will result from the vote of the
Cortes. Moreover the subject is not likely
to be brought forward as soon as was sup?
posed, and in the interval many evonts mn]
occur to completely change the public feel
ing.
There is, however, ouo fact certain, name
ly: That the candidateship of Dom Fernau
do bas of late gained greatly in popularity,
The greatest obstado to it would be tho op
position of the Portuguese people, who,
zealoiiB for their own autonomy, think th oj
see in thc election of the ex-Regent a stet
takeu towards the Iberiau union. Thus wt
find all the organs of the Portuguese presi
combating that solution. The recoptioi
which they gave to the recent decreo of M
Zorilln, declaring all university degrees con
forred in Portugal valid in Spain, show:
that those journals saw thc trap laid tb:
them, but refused to be caught in it. Tin
Diario Mercantil, of Oporto, iu speaking o
that measure, says; "We aro grateful to M
Zorilla, pero mucho ojo" (let us have on
eyes wido open. ) The Diario de Nbticios
of Lisbon, is still sharper, and declares tba
thc Spauish Minister had better at one
have decreed tho anion of the two king
doms. Evidently, therefor?, the greates
difficulties for Dom Fernando will arise oi
tho ?ido of Portugal, and not of Spain.
-o
A GIRL OF THE PERIOD'S DEFENCE.-On
word more, gentle reader. We do uot pre
tend to bo all saints; wo do not say tba
there is nothing but noble feeliugs aud as
pirations nnioug us; but this we do protes
most solemnly, that there is a general f^el
ing among us against the life wo now lead
and a strong craving for better things
Grant us but one trial, eveu though yoi
grant it in scorn, aud do uot go on forovo
condemning us untried. Even if it be bc
lieved that woman's bands aro too weak t(
push forward auy good causo (though the;
aro deemed powerful enough in every bm
one,) would there be any harm in on
tryiug? We might not move the load c
evil ono hair's breadth, but at all evonts w
should not bo increasing its weight by au
nets of our own. And might wo not ove:
do good indirectly by shaming the rue
around us, who, with such splendid oppoi
[unities, are aa useless and moro activel
mischievous than ourselves, to buckle to i
tho great work, aud to prove to us pract
cally their superiority? In the namt
therefore, of a largo class, we demand fe
girls growing to womanhood tho opporti
uity of spending a portiou of their youn
lives in tho service of their God aud of thc
fellow-creatures. Wo implore for them
release from their present boudago of id
selfishness, and the means not only of cult
vating their talents, but in exercising thei
in the cause of good and not of evil. \\
implore it for our own sakes, that our liv
may be brightened by tho blessing of Go'
which over rests na all good works, wheth
successful or not in the eyes of tho worl*
We implore it for the sake of those who a
still young, that they may bo saved tl
dreariness and degradation which we ha
undergone. Wo imploro it for tho sake,
our country, which we feel to bc suffering
dignity and character from the example s
by the class to which wo belong. Lastl
we claim it because we feel that it cann
be the will of God that so many taleu
youth, energy, intelligence and influen
should bo wholly given up to devil's woi
Grant us a fair trial, and it shall be o
fault if, at the close of the present contm
it continues to be a reproach to be calli
"A Girl of the Period."

Tho great Lifo Insurance Company of tho
United States is the National, of which Jay
Cooke Sc Co. are tho General Agents, Wash?
ington. Compared with other big compa?
nies, it is destined soon to bo the BIGGEST
company in tho country. Why? Because
its growth and popularity, measured in its
infancy, warrants it. Thoy have issued, in
five months, nearly 4,000 policies, embra?
cing a aum insured of upwards of $18,000,
000, and tho applications daily increasing.
Another reason is, that tho plan of the Na?
tional is the correct ono, tho cheapest one,
the most liberal one; secures the largest
amount for tho sum paid; no fictitious or
distant dividends declared to dazzle tho im?
agination with its glittering promises, but
gives you a cash dividend in hand before
you start. How? A young clerk, ago
twenty, pays 812.95 a year, and secures a
policy in the National for $1,000. In other
companies ho pays $19.89-a difference of
$6.9?, or a caen dividend of over fifty-two
ner cent. This difference will enable him
to take out a policy for $500 more; so that,
should ho dio, his family secures $1,500,
and pay no moro preminm than other com?
panies charge for $1,000. This don't look
like, what is supposed by some to %e the
case, that the company divide ail the profits
among themselves. Why, the fact is, they
give yon a dividend before it is doo-in ad?
vance-and no contingent operation of ma?
king a profit ?B dependent upon it. Insuro
