Herbert, of Alabama, for Secretary of the Navy. The complete Cabinet is as follows : Walter Q. Gresham, of Illinois, Sec retary of State. John G. Carlisle, of Kentucky, Sec retary of the Treasury. Daniel S. Lamont, of New York, Secretary of War. Hillary A. Herbert, of Alabama, Secretary of tho Navy. Hoke Smith, of Georgia, Secretary of the Interior. J. Sterling Morton, of Nebraska, Secretary of Agriculture. Wilson S. Bissell, of New York, Postmaster General. Richard Olney, of Massachusetts, At torney General. The selection of Hillary A. Herbert for the Navy had been expected for several days, but Olney's name had not been nieutioned in connection with the Cabinet, and his selection is a surprise to everybody, particularly to the friends of Geo. A. Jenks. . Hillary A. Herbert nas been in Congress for many years and has acted as chairman of the Naval committee of the House. Ho is thoroughly familiar with the work that has been done toward placing the United States navy on proper footing and his knowledge of tho present condition of the vessels under construction and which had been planned makes him a most desirable man for head of the department. His selection is also practically a promotion. Richard Olney is one of the leading practitioners of the Massachusetts bar, lie has not held any political position or been prominent in political matters, but is known as one of the leading lawyers and substantial citizens of Boston. His selection gives New England representa tion in the Cabinet and that of Herbert gives the South three positions. "TIIA.K NOW." As a matter of justice to Mr. wo publish tho following card.

Editor Srwi & Observer : Knowing full well that it has not been your inteution or desire to create an erro neous impression upon tho uiiuds of your uders in regard to the Day-Daniels epi sode, an account of which appeared in the Sunday's issue of your valuable paper, desire, in the spirit of fairness, to state, without undertaking to say who was to blunie, that Mr. Daniels was prevented from returning the blow (which was light) by the interfereuco of friends. Neither did he show the white feather or in any way act cowardly. I feel, ih a friend of both parties, that this much can be said without in any way reflecting upon the bravery of Senator Day, who, like the honorable man that he is, at onee expressed sorrow to Mr. Daniels for striking him, and by mutual consent th! seeds of discord were then and then) buried.
