FRIDAY cs ered Kc. 6th. Settee THE doings of the President and Cabinet -at Washington indicate that the Government ; is in the hands of men for the times.

Between the two it is expected to prove Gov. Downey as sound a8 a nut, and then, Gov.

Downey is a true ‘blue Union man—a Union man of thé first water. That being established as a fact, ergo, @ Union man would appoint nonebut . Union men to positions.
