"Ox to Washington "There is more taik ol Thurman everyday," says b Washington special m referring to the Cabinet These are liaits when Cabinets are being made every twenty-four bonrs. How the cid Napoleon would revel as a Cabinet s-nsh'r. The Republican party hs been in power f,760 days to day. It has six days more of reign. And then it will be after 000.090.00-3 days ere it gets another chance to steal. The New York Tribune, like its Chicago namesake, will ba very difficult to satisfy witn a Cabinet. It has evidently prepared it3 mud batteries for a "spattering" on the 5th cf. March. The TO) descendents ot Martin H. Blanchard, who died in Bloorairgdile, N. J., last month, aged ninety-fenr, propose to attend the Inauguration in a body and ask for a place of honor in the line of march. Tan opinion of the Journal as to General Swaim's frnrss for the otlics of Jud'a Advocate General is well known, and It la not complimentary to the Genera!. Journal. "We felt in onr tones that there was same mighty opinion influencing the Swaim court martial. The question has been raised whether a itockhclder in a National Biak cn be made Secretary of the Treasury. Judg3 Lawrence, First Comptroller of the Treasury, says that he is entirely elegible Secretary Folder was a stockholder aod a direclo: Rank. of a National A pap.tv of prominent citizaas of Wisconsin, consisting 0! E. Rithrum, 8.1 Ward and Wm Gardiner, during last week visited some Indiana jailswith reference to building and obtaining a plan for one of the most populous and wealthy couotie3 in Wisconsin. Among oth.rs visited was the new jail at Crawfordsjille. It is the opinion of Mr. George L. Wright, Ol St. Louis, that neither tha Missouri nor Mississippi River Appropriation bills will get a dollar this year, and further, that the River and Harbor Appropriation bill will be defeated. He thicks the Republicans will this revenge themselves on the South for having voted against the Republican candidate in ISSk Rat if tho Republican Congressmen do so foolish a thing as that, the whole country except Skowhegan, Me, and "Wayne County, Ind. will vote against the next Republican candidate. It was Emory A. Etorrs, of Chicago, who ran the iirk of exhausting himself by rush, lag on tha stand after Blaine's nomination to congratulate the Republican party. There for an hour he sought to deify Blaine and to belittle Simnel J. Tilden. Thence to the last days of the campaign he talked up Blaine and talked down Cleveland. And now the gya3cutas ca3 the effrontery to soy that "never has there been a President who has been more unselfishly devoted to the interests of the people than that same Grover Cleveland." Having toM cne political truth Mr. Storrs will now have that t; consent to sit down. im a Grover Cleveland's Tin y have found a wife for Mr. Cleveland. She lire- in Buffalo this time. A special says that a well known society lady, cf Albany, who is acquainted with Mr. Cleveland, declares tlat he is affianced, or soon to be to a daughter cf the late Ojcar Folsoni, of Buffalo, and Mr. FIsoru was at one tinie a law partner of Mr. Cleveland. The young lady has just passed her nineteenth birthday, and 13 handsome and accomplished. She is at present a pnpil of Wells College, ia Aurora, N. Y. S-e has not teen much of fashionable society, and is innocent cf its wilea and fasinations. In company with her mother, she will witness the inaugural cereruonie?, though it is said .they wi 1 net attend the grand ball. W respectfully call the attention of the members of the Legislature from Marion County to the fact that they are pledged to support a law limiting the late of taxation in Marion County as provided by the act of 1370, which the Conrt hccsa ring wrongfully construed bad been repealed by implication. AVhy has net such a law been passed? The bill introduced by Senator Winter Is substantially what is required, and that bill passed the Senate almost unanimously. Why is it allowed to linger in the House? It applies only to Marion County, and therefore if it does not pass, or some other bill of lika effect, it will be the Unit of the Representatives of that county, and a fault, too, not likely to be forgotten or forgiyea by the
' rpretsed taxpayers. Now, gentlemen Representative, 50a have no time to lose, and this bill should be through tha House and tigsed by the Governor before the clcse of the present week. Taxrayers are watching tbi rrttter with painful anxiety, and they have an eye on their Representatives.
T3E PRESIDENT AND THE VC3 PRESIDENT. The letfer of Governor Hendrick3 to Grovr Cleveland i not creditable to the pres of the country, ia that a publication attributir g to Mrs. Hendricks the ambition tn be "the first lady of the land," etc. As a matter of fact the writing and the priming f the letter show how dHcsti the rstatioTi between Mr. Cleveland and Mr. Headricki rlly are. Journal. The flippant reference to Mrs. Hendrcks was bad enough, but the worst feature cf the sketch was an insulting referencj to the ladies of Mr. Cleveland's hoasehoM Hj much for the firt paragraph. As to the second we submit to oar esteemed contemporary a proposition cf etiquette, viz: Should not "the relations batween gentlemen" be lways "delicate? ' Wherever they are not Ihere spring up a familivlty which sometimes breels contempt and breaks friendships. We are pleased to beiitva that while the relations cf the President and Vice President ara "delicate" in tha eensa we indicate, they uro none the Ie33 cordia1, strong aDd full of a gansrous, mutual confidence. It is evidently the self-appointed mission of the Republican press to break np this pleasant relationship. The first attempt was made with the first meeting cf the distinguished gentlemen. Republican correepondents tele2raphed promptly that there had b?ea a rupture and a serious mismdarstanding. Mr. Cleveland did not seem to regird the relationship between himself and Mr. Hendricks R3 so yary "delicate" that he cuald not promptly famish a quietns to what mfght bo called the first he 0! tha post political campaign of the Republican organs, and we therefore find him taking the first opportunity to deny that any but the most cordial relationship existed between himself and Mr. Hendricks. This Etcond attempt looks very much like an attempt to insult the ladles of the respective hou33hoM, and thu3 involve possibly the President and Vice President. Whatever is tha intention, it wi 1 fail. SOUTHERN DIPLOMACY. If Lamar must go into the Cabinet, he sboald do so as Secretary cf State. He Wis tha Con'edsrato Minister to Russia during our unpleasantness, and we natirallv want the diplomacy of the Southern Confeleracy to ba introduced into international anairi. Commercial Gazette. Oh! "we naturally want the diplomacy cf the Southern Confederacy Introduced lato international affaire'' da we? VTell you Republicans know all about it; yoa can speak by the card from actuil experience. General Longatrest, one of the great forces of the Confederacy, was sent abroad on u foreign mission by the Republican party. Was it to introduce in the. words of the charming confession of our esteemed Cincinnati contemporary "the diplomacy of the Southern Confederacy into inter national affiirs?" "We naturally want it," says the C. G. Tha Hayes administration did not "ant" it very loa:. In the naaie of the Republican party "the watt" wa3 promptly gratified, and thu3 it came about that "the diplomecy of tho Southern Confederacy" was introduced by the Republican party "into international affairs" through a distinguished Confederate general. This, however, is not the only instance. We have another brilliant illustration in the checkered cireer cf Geaeral Moseby. The Republicans called him the "Gurerilla Moseby" duiing his unresenerato days, but a3 soon as he and G?neral Grant begin hob-nobbing together oversugar-water in the White House, and he declared for Republicanism, he was promoted to a fall colonelcy and given a foreign consulaie. Thus we see how beautifully and artistically "the diplomacy of ths Soithsrn Confrisrscy" meats and blends with our int-,rntioa-ai affair through the instruiasatalitios of Republicanism. THE GOOD AND THE BAD An old Hindoo proverb says that 4a skv full of clouds does not extinguish tha sun." There is brightness oa the other side if wa can forget what we sea long enough to believe what we may see. The Liberal Ministry of England seams in a fiir way to illus träte the adage. The clouds have been thickening over it with ominous rapidity and darkness, and the general world, as well E3 the conservatives, have felt confident that the only break in tha gloom would be when the storm fell and the eua came cutforthe cheeringandhopeof tho opposition. Yet there comes a gleam of light in two cr three places. Tue colonies on our sHe ol the Atlantic and those on the other side of the globe are prompt and earnest in offering aid to the government in its strait, and a recent dispatch says that in the debate or address to the iaeen declaring a want of confidence ia the Ministry, "the Earl of Carnarvon implored the Earl cf Derby, Secritary of State far the Colonies, to let nothing stand in the way of acceptance by the government of the offers made by the colonies, which would enable them to act in the field in one body with the Queen's array. It would," the spsaker said, "be a great step in the federation of the colonies " Then, while the situation in the Soudan is cne of the gravest that any English ministry has tad to en counter since the Afghan war more than forty years ago, it offers the best opportunity the government has ever bad to consolidate its power by an Incorporation of all its elements into one federative body. We can easily conceive that tha Canadian, Australian and South African contributions to the army in the Soudan, taking part in all the porilsand struggles and possible victories, will send back home an Influence for a close and endurisg union that could never grow out of any situation that maia-
'aiced each' in Its own remote separaMoo. The regiments from New South Wales, Xrom New Zealand, from Cape Colony, from the Can a das, marching, fighting, suffering In hospitals, helping ea:h other on desert expedition?, mixing in all tho exigencies and triumphs of war, will be knit together, as our own eo!d:ers were, by a bond of association and comracn experience stronger than any tie of blood attenuated by generations of living and working divided by the whoie breadth cf the planet. Then going home and diffosiog everywhere the spirit of MIowship and renewed kindred that esch would take back with it, ths tendency to a federative union, in which each should take its part, as onr States do in cur Union, would t)? irresistible. It would by a long siep indeed, as the Krl of Carnarvon says, to an uuion cf the colonies ia a federation with tie mother caontry. The changing conditions of business might possibly would probib!y in time weaken tha b t ls of this union, and leave one or more cf the members to maintain independence or form new connections nearer home, but for one generation it seems almost certa'n that a federation of the English colonies would be maintained with a strength of attachment and of wealth, population and energy, that would ba'a-ca anylos3of mers conu' ercial dependencies like Egypt. Another g't? in ot encouragement ia said to appear in lne probability that the Irish Nat.ona's will supo:)rt Gladstone against the Cesser vätivts ii th-y car. b? assured of a release from fone cf the onorous restraints that were er.acted in ret&'Iation o! eome of the ontbre&ks f Iriih reseriUuent. If there should &pirr here a sort cf 'entering wedge" fcra cor.ci iition of Irish discontent, it is not imp:?sib!8 that r little restoration of good feeling may b? followed by more, and in the end a n.ore complete independence in domestic affairs for Ireland than will ever be effected by dynamite operations. It would eeem to an observer on this Bide of the ocean that a fhort?r way to an independent republic lies through an icdapendence in domestic control, like that
of a State in cur Union, attained by a compromise of differences than through a conflict embittered by a mutual belief of ea:h party in the irredeemable depravity of ths other. At all events there open3 here and there a pkata cf hope in the "Ftryptiau darkness" ef the Liberal situation ia England, whether it broadens into permanent üht or is clouded over S3 eoon ai seen. The condition cf 6ffair3 oa the Niia i3 about ai bad as it caa be, short of tha capture or dePtrucüon of the English forces, but the political situation at home teeim hardly so desperat as it hai sometimes been described. SEUriON&LISM. The article headed "Gectiotalieni," which appears elsewhere ia this morning's S?r.t'uel, is fiora the ten of Hon. C. H. Resva, cf Plymouth. It is a caustic review cf a recent article in the North American Review, written by Mr. Murat Halstsad, one of tho edit .rs cf the Commercial Gazstte. Mr. Halstaid selected for his theme "The Revival of fc'eotionalism." We trust that we do net overstep the bounds of journalistic coarsy when W Ef.y tbat the Cincinnati Gazette and the Cincinnati Commercial before f.nd after their consolidation have contributed folly as much to "sectionalisdi" and the "revival ct Sc-ctiOLallsm" as any other newspaper cr papers in the country. Mr. Reeve in his article demonstrates very clearly the inconsistencies, iatoleances and vindictivauess of this late3t contribution cf the mo vir g spirit of the Western wing cf sectional agitators, who seem never eo happy a3 when theyare blowing iato new life th9 dying embers of the old camp fires or flying and flapping the torn and tattered remnants of the bloody shirt. Resd Mr. Reavt's ari'cle. Dp.. Newman, onca noted for being General GraLt's chaplain, ha3 gone over to spiritualism, bag and baggage. Preaching at the funeral of young Leland Stanford, he said (the Italics his own): yf'kn ' th a t he (Y.'.s. You have felt the t'-"c-'t of bis invisible hand; you have hard the -'ie of bis tenderest love; you have received the kis. from his immortal lips. He is here to-day, not in tears, but in smiles; not to die, but to live forevermore. Continuing, he goes as far as tha most ultra' spiritGalist might, and hti expressions are eaid to have but reflected tha faith cf Senator-elect Stanford and of others of his family. Ha says: Ha has joined the minhtry of an?eb, and of the just made perfpet, who are ministering spirits to thra who eha"i be heirs of salvation. As Moses and Elia came to Christ, Leland shall come to you. As spirit.il beings time to Abrahaai on tha Plains of Mamse. came to Mofes on the Mount, cirue to Daniel on tha banks of tbe UIs:, came to Peter ia prison, came to Cornelius at C;earea, came to Pnl at Troa, came to John a: Patnios. so shall Leland come t;i you with message.! cf love, and wisdom, and prelection. And as the ood spirits escorted tte actnding Christ aad carried the soul of Lszms tD Abraham's bosom, so shall Leland come to conduct you to the bliastul soc;tty of Heaven.

THE SEW CAIUNET. Tlie New York World Gives the Follow la as the Complete Cabinet. New Y'opk, Feb. üö. The Wcrld of Thurs day will contain the following: "Albany, Feb. 25. "As concerns the Cabinet, the air ha3 c'rared very rapidly since Mr. Lamar Lift here 3 esterday. His visit brouti'at the thing to a head, and when In parted from Clevelard the Cabinet practically wa3 com pleted. I have learned from a socica not to te que3tun?d tor cne moment, that Cleveland has positively eettltd on five membe:sind all of thatu haya given in their formal acceptance. The38 are the names and placc3 they aie expected to fill: Bayard, ecetarv of State ;Manning,Scc Mary of the Treasury; Lamar, Secretary cf tre Interior; Garland, Attorney General; Vilas, Postmaster General. This leaves the war end navy portfolios to be filled. He is now disposed to appoint Wbitnay to the navy. If be had to eend in his Cabinet to-day ha would no doubt do to. Of coarse, this means two men from New York. This is worrying kim a good deal. He wants Whitney, and is about decided to igncr9 custom and precedent and voluntarily incur much inevitable criticism of a hostile character for the saEe cf having a man in the Navy Department whom h understands and who understands him. It need not be surprising if he dees so anyhow. In fact, it is probable ha will. As to the War Department he is holding between two ssen Judg Eidicott and Hon. Patrick A. Collins, of Massachusetts, with the ctances in favor of the for mer. One of these is sure to be appointed, aad will go in as tha representative of New Ehland. The chances to day are clearly tbfcthewill appoint Judge Endicott, who will be remembered &3 the Democratic nominee for Governor in Massachusetts la.t year. His selection would be particularly eatisfac tory to tbe independents who eupported Cleveland, tbou his Democracy is not to be doubted. A Cabinet thus made up, of course deposes finelly of both Tnurman and McDonald, and leaves tha Western ar.d Middle States without a representative. The preatest 1 indrance to tbe appointment of McDonald is tbe irritating and disturbing effect it would have on tbe Indiana Demccrccy, which was not a unit in his advocacy, l or a similar reason Cleveland parsed ever Thurman. an additional objection biing his Ric. wLi'.b, in Cleveland's opinion, would hardly permit of his undertaking tf.e pffesirg work that must devolya upon the Cabinet oliicersof tbe incoming administration. It is undentDod there is to ba appointed, to tb.0 Pension Bureau, which halo r g" to the Department of the Interior, a weli kncwa Union General, which would flilay flny hostile criticism that might arisa Irom Lamar's havirg been a prominent Confederate. It nay be added that Cleveland is well along with bi3 inaugural addrc-ss. It will be brief, simple and plain, like all his public utterances. He will take the same position on th- tariff question as that laid down in the Chicago Democratic platfoim, advo cating tetorms ol tne present tarill sjstem, but with a due consideration for incidental protection cf American Industries. He will take a positive ground tgainst the continuation of tbe silver coinage. Some time ago he received a letter from 100 Congressmen, headed by Iteasan, of Texas, asking nini to be non committal on the silver question in his t 1 nr., l.ll.. i ! a. l . icauguraj. mis lener ue is jusi aoaui answering, and in it will give hia reasons for taking ground against'further coinage. A Cabinet Slate far Cleveland. Sr. Lons, Mo., Feb. 25. The Pest-Dispatch publishes a special from Albany, which it claims is perfectly authentic and reliable. It states that Cleveland has already offered five Cabinets portfolios, and they have been accepted by tbe following gentlemen: Bayard for Secretary of State; Man ning, 8eci etary of the Treasury ; Lamar, 8ecrem souisiBifturi irousseau we r maxing:

The War Department will ba tendered either to Judge Endicott or Patrice A. Co'lirs, both of Masf aobusetts, with a preference for Endicott, who was the Uemocratic nominee for Governor last summer, and who will come nearer than any other gentleman to representing the Indejendentain the Cabinet Cleveland, in his inangnral, will take his stand on the lariff question on the plauk of the Chicago Convention platform. He will aisitakea positive point on the silver question in favor of one standard.
ANOTHER RAILWAY WRECK. A Freight Tratu 011 the llliuois Cental Kant Into Sleeper, Killing One Instantly and Injuring Several Othr. Kankakee, Feb. 25. At midnight last night, three miles touth of Chebanse, on the llinols Central Road, two passenger trains were run into by a freight. Tha ya35enger leaving Chicago at about 8 p. m. was being ollowed closely by the New Orleans express, the tram consisting of a bagcsg3far, smoker, two coaches aad four sleepees. The leading passenger topped on account of a broken truck. The New Orleaas express stopped back of it half a mile and sent out signals back to notify the approaching train, then started up and almost reached the forward passenger train, stiil ct a dead stop, whea the freight train carue at. full peed, breaking into tne rear of the sleepor, the engino reaching th9 midd e of tha rear ccach, telescoping several carr, then clashing the rear of the forward patssngf-r. The wildest confusion at onca ensued. The cries of the imprisoned victims rent the air. Itsady hand3 choppc-d into the mass of debris, extracting the injured aud caring for tham as well as posii p. Tre following is a list of the killed and injured: John A. Mclnnt-s, of Ingersoll, Ontario, was kptantly killed. He was found in t is berth, in the lst sleepsr, wit.i his neck broken. Aid?rman Gaycor, of Chicago, was bruised across tha chest, ami had a contusion on tbe bid of the head, his nose and nbont both eyes, and right fjot and right hip were ir jnred. Hi3 injuries were very painful. Rev. J. M. Abbott' Brown, of No. 2 Wocdiarid l'rk, Chicago, a severe bum on the tole cf his right foot; 8. M, Bsarcai! arid wife, cf Grand Ridä, Mich., both Ecvt-reiy braked on back of tho he-id: II. K. Terrv, of Chicago, an ßbrasin of thx left chest end kne-; F. M. Butts, cf Chicago, severely brais.-d on the forebeed, sole of the fcol, left hand and face terribly burned; Dr. Isabel A. Mitchell, of Chicago, a fracture cf tho riht leg, and interraily Injured; Jenks Mitchell, the colored porter uf the rear sleeper, hands and face severely burned, and bodv badly bruh?d; F. naaz, of Chicago, left temple bihised and right hand severely cut. Mr. Mclnncs was en route to New Orleans to meet hi? wifand daughter, who were attending the Exposition. Conductor J. Claudms testified as follows: "We-stopped about half a mile behind tha forward passenger, when it had stopped oa account of a bioken rail. I went to the rear of tha train to btnd Paul Holt back to put out danger signals to prevent the following tram from runnin intou3. Holt had le.'t the train to torpedo the track before I eaw him. He went back down tha track half a mile I Ehould think. After stooping there a few minutes we whistled for Fiagman Holt, who got on the trAin, and we pulled up until we were within two cr three car lengths of the forward passenger, e.nd togsther with my engineer I stocd several feet cut at ilia side of nv irain. We were going to see why the forward passenger did net go on. when suddenly we lav a fie?pht coming under fall speed, at which rate it crushed into the train. The tigmsn told me he bad placed seven torpedoes down aong the track." The pessenpers informed your reporter that they heard the torpedoes discharged before tbe train struck. The inquest will continue this afternoon and evening probably. A relief train, with surgeocs and wreckers, reached the scene from Chicago at 10 a. m. The injured were well cared for. The wreck wp.3 cleared and the messengers brought to Che-banee at 1 p. m. to d.iy. Funeral ot Mr. Kiugsiwy. New Yokk, Feb. 2." The funeral of tha lata William C. King3ley, cf Brooklyn Bridge fame, took place this afternoon at Brooklyn. Mayor Lowe, all the city cihcials and many prominent citizens were present. Henry Ward Beechersaid: Worldly men tay no matter how a man live, when he dies he will be whitewashed. I da not propose to present Mr. Kinsley as a eiint. He baa laults, but tbey were common to curranity, and hU exeellecces wsre personal and I renominated.

Jj.The triad of Bowling for shooting Gill wa3 passed for tomorrow at 10 o'clock, on account of the abeence cf one of his attcrneys. VTilliam Neal was taken away this evening by thirteen guards. His last words before bearding the train were: "Ladies and gentlemen, it is hard that an innocent man hss to suffer the fate assigned me on the testimony of perjurers. Those men, Hellin and Ellip.iknew they lied infamously. My innocence I will protest on the gallows." Great apprehensions are entertained of a mob to-night. There i3 a heavy s:uard around the jail in which Boiling is incarcerated. Excitement Over a Disappearance. Port Tow ssesd, W. T., Feb. 3. Much excitement has been created over the disappearance o T. oaass Ntyins, who has been residing here under the ali.ii of John B. Voorhees. He was formerly Mayor of Adrian, Mich., where he was implicated for issuing fraudulent cttv bonds to the extent of $CO,000. It is stated he is on his wav to return to Adrian to stand his trial, as he was not guilty ol intentional fraud. Injunction Against a Trustee. New York, Feb. 25 Miss Sarah B.
