The Lincoln Cabinet on the Mason and Slidell affair.

The report so freely circulated yesterday that Lincoln's Cabinet have decided to accede to England's demand, even if it involves a surrender of Messrs. Mason and Slidell, is not confirmed by any advices that have come to hand. We have received the New York Herald, of the 21st inst., which contains no such announcement, though there is an abundance of editorial speculation upon the probabilities of such a decision.
