CRITICISING THE CABINET. Democrats Who Are Seriously Dissatisfied with Cleveland's Selections. Jl Southern Colonel Insists that tlic South h Not Represented—Pan Manning and llte Tweed Bing. Dissatisfied Democrats, Washington Special. The announcement of Cleveland’s Cabinet, today, although its make-up has been pretty well understood since the President-elect arrived in Washington on Tuesday, created much angry comment to day about the hotels and public reports where Democrats most do congregate. The general drift of gossip is well illustrated by the talk of a group in front of Willard’s this afternoon, composed of a prominent Irishman, an ex-rebel officer and a leading Democratic Congressman from Pennsylvania, who were discussing the appointments. The Irishman was especially emphatic in Lis denunciation of the -Qabinet. “The antipathy to Paddy," said he, “which was so remarkable in New England twenty five O'ears ago, is again becoming manifest. When ’this man Cleveland sent for Pat Collins, the brillriant Irish member of Congress from Massachusetts, to speak at Albany ten days after the campaign opened, the Irish people were proud of the and wavered in their intended support of Blaine. Mr. Collins was commissioned by Cleveland, who was ready then to exclaim ■with Caesar, ‘Help me, Cassius, or I sink,’ to defend him on the Irish question, the Catholic protectory and the car drivers’ bills, and again •to speak at the monster Irish meeting at the Academy of Music in New York. Mr. Collins’s work was most efficient, and he should certainly ,-bo credited with a part of the 1,107 votes which carried New York State, in contrast with Cleveland's previous majority of 192,000. But what is •his reward? His Irish and American friends felt that his chances for a Cabinet position were more than good, but it appears that he has never even been considered. What greater insult could the Irish people receive than this'r ‘ “But,’’faaid a by-stander, “it is claimed that this is a representative Cabinet” “That is a lie!’’ exclaimed the ex-rebel, “so far as the South is concerned. The South is not represented at all, although it gave five-sevenths of the electoral vote.” “You will surely admit that Lamar is a representative Southern man, will you not?” asked the Irishman. “No, i will not,” said the ex-confederate, who claims the rank of colonel. “No man who eulogized Charles Sumner can be called a representative Southerner, and that is what Lamar lias done.” “But he also stood up for Jeff Davi3,” was the rejoinder. “Yes, 1 know he did. but that was hypocrisy and policy,’’ said tiro colonel. “A representative Southern man is one who fought through the •war on the Southern side and still insists that the South was right. Lamar has attempted to curry favor by making conciliatory and apologetic speeches for the rebellion, and all his associations and relations of late y-ears have been with Northern people. Jie does not represent •ne. Ho does not. represent any Southern ffoldier, I know, and I insist that lie does not represent the South.” “I want to put in my kick now,” chimed in the Pennsylvanian. “You gentlemen make specialties in your objections, and you represent class feeling, but I wish to go a step further and denounce the whole outfit. You cannot name in the Cabinet one who did any work during the campaign. All those who were appealed to, and to whom this great victory owes its aecompliah'YHWWT'have been completely ignored. The virtues of Thurman and the ability of McDonald ould not weigh against the corporate influences manifested in the make up of the new Cabinet. Vilas has an army record, and is a good speaker, tut he is a corporation lawyer, the same as Bayard, who gets an annual fee from the Philadelthia, Wilmington & Baltimore railroad. Our risli fricud speaks of the insult to his countrylnen in the neglect of his friend Collins. But •what greater insult could there be than the appointment of Bayard, which puts the State De partment for four years under the dictation of Groat Britain? It is one of the stories of the Chicago convention, and 1 believe it, that $1,000,000 was offered by the Belmonts for his nomination to the presidency. That money was to come from the Rothschilds, of course, and that is a fine influence to dominate in our government.” “What about Garland?” asked one of the party. “Garland?” said the Pennsylvanian. “He is nothing but a Hamiltonian Democrat, which fneans a galvanized Republican. I have heard a tiueor story,” ho continued, “about his operations in land matters, which Attorney-general Breweter may be called upon to verify. But Ido not wish to find objections in that direction.” “What did Garland do to elect Cleveland?” asked the Keystone statesman. As no one could tell, he went on with his criticism. “Endicntt,” said he, “i3 one of the bluebleoded fossils of Massachusetts, whom nobody knows, and it is only since his name was mentioned for the Cabinet that I learned he ran once for Governor there. Whitney is a relative of the Standard Oil Company: was corporation counsel in New York, and is monopoly from head to heel. Lamar is a dreamer, who knows Clothing about politics, and Manning is an exnational bank president. That is a fine Democratic Cabinet, isn't it?” “Well, it is a pretty bad dish for a hungry Crowd," sadly groaned the Southern colonel, ‘‘and there is only one consolation I have.” “What is that?” asked the Irishman, who /showed symptoms of dryness. “It is this,” was the answer. “The Western men that I know are madder than the Southerners. They feel that Cleveland has shown them that New York is to dominate in national affairs hereafter, in retaliation for their action on the •fiilver question, and they are ready for any sort of deviltry.” “Let's go and drink the health of Riddleber--ger.' proposed the Irishman, and the party disappeared.

Manning and the Tweed King. lie*' York Tribune. “The following is an extract from the testimony given by William M. Tweed before the •Idermen’s investigating committee, Sept. 29, 1377. The investigation was conducted in this City, and we quote from the New York World’s peport of it as it appears in that _Democratic •jewspaper, Sept. 30, 1877: 4 ‘ ‘How about the public press? Were they with you or against you?’ *• .‘They were generally against us in public find with us in private.’ “ ‘What do you mean?’ “‘I mean that we had to subsidize them. I mean the press of Albany. The Argus was with us, being Democratic; but we had to help them by inserting items in their favor in the State tax levy to pay for printing, and also in the budget find the deficiency bilk* “ ‘What do you mean by subsidizing?*’ “ ‘Giving them money. 1 never gave money to fthe Argus, but wo used to help them in every *ray by inserting items to pay bills for work Hone in the deficiency bills and the tax levy.’ “ ‘Were those bills right?’ “ ‘We didn’t inquire. They were brought to us, and we had to put in the items providing for them. I supposed its bills had some little foundation. Wo didn’t know: we never inquired. Anything they asked us to do we were always ready to do.’ “ ‘State more particularly your relations with the Argus?’ 'The Argus was a Democratic journal; a man named Manning was reporter for it; my relation with him became very intimate and friendly; sometimes they desired an appropriation put in the tax levy; all appropriations originated in the lower house, and while the DeIgipracy were in power I had control of the

ways and moans, where action in the matter emanated: when the Republicans were in power I generally had control of it also.’ “ Tn what way did you control the committee?' “ ‘Manning would hand mo an item he wanted put in the tax levy. I would hand it to the chairman and tell him I wanted that done. Tho reason that Manning came to me was that otherwise lie would have to pay for having the item put in, but I secured its insertion without any expense to them: by that means I got their support. I was always ready to oblige them.’ “ ‘This Democratic journal supported you, and was paid for it in this way?’ “ ‘That was the understanding.’ “ ‘Did any of your ring write editorials in that paper?’ “’No. sir: Manning would bring me articles sometimes that had been written. 1 think he would put in whatever I desired. I never tried, because it wa3 never necessary. If it had been necessary 1 would have exercised the power.’ “ ‘Can you give me any idea of the amount that was put into the tax levy during your time in behalf of the Albany Argus?’ “ ‘I couldn't: but if I could I wouldn't dare to; it would be frightful in amount.’ “Following this testimony from Mr. Tweed came a denial from the Argus that it had ever been subsidized by the boss. At the next session of the aldermen’s investigating committee, Mr. Tweed exhibited a check made Jan. 19, 1871, by Mr. Tweed for $4,000, and indorsed by William Cassidy as president and Daniel Manning as attorney of the Argus Printing Company. (Here the check was shown. ) I read as follows: “ ‘New York. Jan. 10, 1371. “ ‘Tenti National Bank: “ 'Pay to the order of the National Commercial Bank of Albany $4,000. Wm. M. Tweed. “ ‘lndorsed—A\ ix. CassidV. President. “ ‘Daniel W. Manning, Attorney.’ ’’ “Mr. Tweed also showed that he had kept a brother of Wm. Cassidy. O. 8. Cassidy, on the pay-roll, and drew money for years which was charged to the Argus. "Asa consideration for favors from the Argus Company, he had inserted in the session laws of 1870, chapter 492. the following: ‘The contract with the Argus Company for legislative printing shall bo extended for three years, provided the Comptroller shall deem it for the interests of tho State.’ “From 18G8 to 1874 the Argus Company received for printing $778,450, of which, Air. Tweed said, $984,500 was during the years 1870 and 1871, ‘when I was in power to assist them.’ Air. Manning’s explanation of his connection with the check for $4,000. as published in the Albany Evening Times, was, that in 1871 Air. Tweed had produced a check, and he asked me if I would oblige him by indorsing it for identification. I did so, writing on the back of it: ‘William Cassidy, president; Daniel Alanning, attorney.’ “In a subsequent examination Air. Tweed, while admitting that it might boas Air. Alanning stated about the note of $4,000, made no other modification of his statement concerning either the Argus or Air. Manning.” THE WEATHER BULLETIN. Indications.

East St. Loris, Alarch 6.—Professor Carpenter, a school teacher of this county, reports that yesterday, when he opened his school-room, he found it full of snakes of various sizes. The snakes were crawling ail about the floor, on the desks, the teacher's table, the window sills and under the stove. As there was not room enough fer the snakes and the children, the latter fled Dell-mell from the room. In the panic many of the children were painfully braised. It is supposed that, the school house being atthe foot of the bluff, the snakes at the approach of winter crawled down the bluff, and sought refuge under the house, The warm weather of tho past few days and the heat of the stove thawed them out, and they crawled through the cracks and holes into the school room. This statement oi S. B. Arban, a dry goods dealer, of Washington borough,. Pa., is brief, but entirely to the point. “I do hereby certify that I have been afflicted with dyspepsia for several years, aud two bottles of Alishler’s Herb Bitters cured mo.” If we undertook to make a collection of certificates of this sort we could till a very large volume.

THE STRIKE OS THE GOULD LISES. Snspension of Work at Dennison, Tex.—The Master Mechanic Ordered to Leave Town. Dennison, Tox., March o.—At 10 o'clock this morning, at. a pre-arranged whistle signal, all the workmen in the Missouri Pacific shops threw down their tools and quit work. An outdoor meeting was immediately held, committees appointed to guard the company’s property and allow no one to go to work. Two yard engines were left unmolested, but at 3 o’clock, while the strikers were holding a meeting uptown, they received word that loaded cars were being slipped out of the yard by these eugines. They went iu a body to the yard, captured the engines, and locked tlic-m in the roundhouse. It is understood the strikers have determined to allow no passenger coaches to leave here. A secret meeting is being held to-night. At Marshall the situation remains unchanged. The executive committee of the strikers gave notice to-day to O. A. Haynes, master of the machinery department of the Texas Pacific to leave town in twenty-four hours. Haynes is very obnoxious to the workmen. They assert that he was the prime mover in bringing about the recent reduction of wages and increasing the hour3 of labor, and that General Manager Hoxie ‘issued the order on plans submitted by Haynes. The strikers seem determined, and good order prevails. Details of the strikers are watching the shops and yards, and guarding the company’s property. At Longview the strikers are also watching the company’s property. At Springfield, 111., no work is being done in tke Wabash shops. The men are all out. Engines needing repairs are being sent to Rome, N. Y. At Dallas all the laborers and ail but two of the clerical force in the freight department of the Texas Pacific were indefinitely suspended today. The section hands are discussing the situation in a meeting, and may strike at any moment. Two special engineers arrived to-night over the Missouri Pacific. lt is believed they are volunteer engineers from the Transcontinental road, to relieve the freight blockade. A railroad man, who has just returned from the West, says the strikers aro well backed with money; that $2,000 came from a single source. It is claimed that the central organization of machinists ordered the strike, and is demanding the resignation of Superintendent Hoxie as an inuispensablo preliminary to peace proceedings. The striking workmen of the International shops at Palestine, Texas, held a prolonged meeting and finally resolved not to accept the proposition from the Palestine Board of Trade to pay 2.1 per cent of their wages for a period of three months. The town is in a state of excitement over the determined character of the strike. Four freight trains were taken out, today, under guard of tho sheriff and his deputies. The strikers at Longview, however, intercepted the first train, side-tracked the cars, and drew the fires of the engines. At Fort Wayne, Ind., tho strike of Wabash shopmen still continues. Fifteen workmen, who refused to come out heretofore, to-day joined the strikers, leaving, as the Strikers claim, not a man iu the blacksmith shop, and but one journeyman in the carpenter shops. The other departments are deserted, except by a few apprentices. The men now on strike number about 275. The Knights of Labor have showed their hand iu organizing the strikers at this point, and many members have been taken into the order to-day and to-night. The men are quiet and orderly, but express a determination to stand firm.

Secretary East. Bloomfield Democrat. Hughes East, another Greene couutian, has been chosen Vice-president's private secretary. The Democrat feels honored over the election, and we believe our people all do. The honor is a bigger one than a casual thinker stops to consider. We do not know whore Mr. Hendricks could have found a truer friend, or one more fitted by education and nature for the work. Mr. East is one of the best of mixers. He is a ready conversationalist and a royal entertainer. He writes a fine hand and uses choice language. Before four years Mr. East will know more poli ticking than any other man in the United States, and they will entertain a favorable opinion of both him and Mr. Hendricks. Stranger things have happened than Mr. East being Vice-presi-dent of the United States. A Heavy' Reckoning. Richmond Palladium. The Democrats of the lower house of the State Legislature are determined, if possible, to force the calling of an extra session. They promised before their election that they would advocate and practice reform, but they have turned out to ho the most profligate "set of law-mak-ers which ever disgraced the State of Indiana, and which has violated all promises made to secure election. If an extra session is made necessary by these men, with the heavy expense it will entail up&n the people, there will be a reckoning required bv the voters and tax payers which will at least have the result of retiring these demagogues to the obscurity they deserve. ■ A Friend ot Temperance. Columbus Republican. Our Senator Duncan, who has made considerable pretensions to being a friend to temperance, voted against the bill to provide for the teaching of the effects of alcohol in the public schools, and for the bill to permit saloons to remain open until 12 o’clock. Mr. Duncan is a very nice sort of gentleman, personally, but he is one of the smallest of small politicians, who has not enough independence to say his soul is his own if the caucus or tho liquor league should decide otherwise. Will Learn as He Grows Older. Hancock Democrat. It is unfortunate that Mr. Cleveland suffered himself to be placed on the wrong side of this question. He will learn as he goes along and grows older that tho men who oppose our silver money will not be sustained by the great masses of our American people, especially here iu the great West, where men are made and unmade in a day, as it were.

A Question of Pronunciation. Atlanta Constitution. The Philadelphia Press says that Senator Lamar’s name is pronounced with the accent on the first syllable. Where did the Press gather this astounding information? The accent is on the second syllable, unless it has been changed by an act of Congress since day before yesterday. Above the Oily. Warsaw Times. In the hearts of the people of Hoosierdom—regardless of political affiliation —Joseph E. McDonald stands head and shoulders above the oily, slimy, vain, selfish and treacherous Hendricks, whose only hope for future political honors lies in the death of his present chief. A Fair Divide. Columbia City Commercial. Democrats told us that their success meant prosperity and plenty for all. We would advise the fellows who overdrew several hundred dollars of the people s money in the State Senate to divide the same with their brethren in Whitley county. The Rascally Apportionments. Andrews Fvprcss. The congressional apportionment is decidedly unfair, but the legislative apportionment is of a most outrageous character. The Republican party will know how to deal with the Democracy the next time it comes into power. The Mautle of Charity. New Albany Ledger. The President evidently enmo to the conclusion that 31 r. McDonald was the candidate of the politicians, and it was that fact, and not the enmity of Mr. Hendricks, that prevented his going into the Cabinet. All the Phases of the Swindle. Terro name Kxpress. The enormity of the outrage is such that it will take an overwhelming vote to right tire wrong. This no doubt was taken into consideration by the schemers, who purposely made it as nearly impossible as they could for the people to

assert their will at the next election. There are, however, we believe, enough fair-minded men in the State to accomplish this end. and they should be made acquainted with all the phases of the swindle. AIl the “Niggers” Must Go, Washington Letter iu New York World. There continues to be a great deal of uneasiness among the department people about ebanges. Perhaps there is no class of employes in the departments who are more disturbed than the colored people. The colored employes of the government are tho aristocrats of their society. Some of them have accumulated fine properties. I know of one colored messenger who has four or five sons :n the departments. The family all live together in one house. Their aggregate salaries must reach over $6,000 a year. The ancient cook of General Sheridan well illustrates this panicky feeling among tho members of her race. “Aunt Mary” lias been Sheridan’s cook for a long period. When he left Chicago he set her up in a small shop there. Her daughter married one of the messengers in the War Department. She recently came on to visit her married daughter. She has been here now about two weeks. Yesterday she expressed her opinion on the situation to a lady friend of General Sheridan. Aunt Mary said: “General Sheridan —he is all right, and I was powerful glad of it. Dese yer Democrats can’t get him out no how. but all <le odder niggers will have to go by de end of de physical year.” Mormons in the Army. Washington Letter in New York Tribune. One of the numerous crandsons of Brigham \ oung i3 somewhat conspicuous here just now as an assistant in the Swaim court-martial to Judge Advocate Asa Bird Gardner. This young scion of polygamy is an artillery officer,stationed at Governor’s Island. He studied law and was graduated at Columbia College. Ho is fall, and is considered good looking. He has, of course, but one wife, for. though a Mormon, he is not a polygamist. JudceAdvocate Gardner sent for him to assist the prosecution, which in itself is a compliment, as that officer is considered the ablest lawyer in the army On Thursday Lieutenant Young distinguished himself by his readiness in prompting the judge advocate, and a smile of admiration passed over the ordinarily solemn faces of the uniformed court about the table. A son of Brigham Young, graduated at West Point, is au officer in the engineer corps, and is, I am told, above the average iu brains, lie, too, is married to one wife only. Delivered Too Late.

20 TEARS OF AGOIY Ended. The Cnticura Remedies Triumphant. “I have been afflicted for twenty years with an obstinate skin disease, called by some M. L>.’s psoriasis, and others, leprosy, commencing on my scalp, and, in spite of all I could do, with the help* of the most skillful doctors, it slowly but surely extended, unt[l a year ago this winter it covered my entii'e person in form of dry scales. For the last three years I have been unable to do any labor, and suffering intensely all the time. Every morning there could be nearly a dustpanful of scales taken from the sheet on my bed, some of them half as large as the envelope containing this letter. In the latter part of winter my skin commenced cracking open. I tried everything, almost, that could be thought of, without any relief. The 12th of June I started West, in hopes I could reach the Hot Springs. I reached Detroit, and was so low 1 thought I should have to go to the hospital, but finally got as far as Lansing, Mich., where I had a sister living. One Dr. treated me about two weeks, but did me no good. All thought I had but a short time to live. I earnestly prayed to die. Cracked through the skin all over my back, across my ribs. arms, hands, limbs, feet badly swollen, toe-nails came off. finger nails dead and hard as bone, hair dead, dry and lifeless as old straw. O, my God! how I did suffer. “My sister had a small part of a box of Cnticura in the house. She wouldn't give up; said, ‘We will try Cnticura.’ Some was applied on oue hand and arm. Eureka! there was relief; stopped the terrible burning sensation from the word go. They immediately got the Cuticura Resolvent, Cuticura and Cuticura Soap. I commenced by taking one tablespoonful of Resolvent three times a day, after meals; had a bath once a day, water about blood heat, used Cuticura Soap freely; applied Cuticura morning aud evening.

BY SIVA. 12mo. Cloth, $1.00; Paper Covers, 50 cents. Since the days of the famous “Letters of Junius,” few writings have commanded so much attention as these letters of Siva to a President-elect.
