BALTIMORE, Dec. 11.— Seldom lias such a representative gathering of pub lic men been'seen as that which met in the foyer• of the Ac..deiny of Music in this city to-night at the dinner given by the business men of the city to Sen ator A. P. Gorman. About two hun dred subscribers and invited guests were present, among the latter being Senators T. F. Bayard, Charles \V. Jones, John R. McPherson,B. F.Jonas, Wade Hampton, L. Q. C. Lamar, Geo. H. Pendleton, Groome, of Aid ; Vest,of Missouri; Camden, of West Virginia ; Governor McLand, ot Maryland ; Rep resentatives b. S. Cox, Geo. A. Post, Commander H H. Gorring and Frank lin B. Gowen, of Pennsylvania, and others. The arrangements for the banquet and the decorations of the hall were of most tasteful character. The first toast on the programme was "The chairman of the national demo eratiic executive committee, a leader to whose thorough and skillful organiza tion we are happily indebted for the brilliant victory of last November." lion A. P. Gorman responded, say lug: "I thank you cincerelv,Mr.Chair man and gentlemen, for the kind man ner in which the mention of my name has been received and for the tribute paid to such services as I was able to render in the November campaign. As chairman of the national democratic executive committee, I ruust shate with many persons the credit which you give to me. My labors would have been wholly unavailing, except for the sup port, action and aid of the chairman and members of the national democrat ic committee. Their labor ana mine would have produced no good results, unless, our common efforts had been sustained by the efficient work of the state, county and local committees in the debatable states of New York, In diana, Connecticut and New Jersey. "These committees, in their tun would have been unable to achieve victory without the powerful aid of the democratic and independent press and cordial support of multitudes of good men, of all opinions in tuese states Ail these efforts would perhaps, in turn haye proved ineffectual except for the wisdom and disjretiou shown by the democratic and independent press and by all sympathizing with us, in the known democratic states Any act of imprudence or folly committed in those states would haye endangered the chances of success in the debatable states. I recognize, therefore, fully that the honor which you (r lie represen tative business men of Baltimore) do rae is, in truth the expression of your thanks to the host of men whose un tiring and patriotic efforts enabled us to succeed in the great and memorable st,/uggle through which our country passed in the autumn of this year. "We may well congratulate each other upon the result. The administra tion of Orover Cleveland will fulfill the just expectations of all who have sup ported him. He has no need to make new pledges. He can safely rest upon the assurances given in his letter ac cepting the nomination for the presi dency. His conduct as Governor of the state of New York is a sufficient guarantee that his promises will lie ob served. We may be assured that under his administration the county will be governed with wisdom and prudence and with the single purpose of promot ing the welfare of the whole people of the United States." The second toast, "State of Mary land," was responded to by Governor McLaue. The third toast, "The dem ocratic party, founded by Jefferson, as sociated with all that is glorious in the past, alive to every demand of the pres ent, and every hope of the future," was lesponded to by Senator Bayard, of Delaware, whose appearance was re ceived with strong demonstrations of gratifiations. Americ m Pork. The New Administration Expected to Look Over the Matter in Germany. WASHINGTON, Dec. 12.—For some months past the subject of the admission of American pork in Germany has re mained in stata qu£, the inhibition im posed by the decree of March G, 1883, still existing, and the German markets meanwhile having been effe dually clos ed to American produce. Hitherto the contest against German discriminations has been urged alone in behalf of the American pork interests; but hostile measures in Germany having recently been threatened against American pe troleum, a powerful combination of the two interests is now being formed look ing to a decisive and determined stand by the new administration and the new congress in regard to boih of these es sentially important brunches of Ameri can expoits. WASHINGTON LETTER. From our Regular Correspondent. WASHING TON, D. C.. Dec. 16 18S1. The only man who has been promi nently mentioned in connection with a place in Mr Cleveland's Cabinet who is at all likely to reach the place,is Sen ator Garland for the Attorney General ship. The Seuatoi is not only one of the clearest headed men now in public life, but he is a most thorough and in dustrious student, who l ever spares a moment of time from the duties that attach to his position and the demands made upon him hy a constituency that appear to recogniz- him as the sole rep resentative of their interests. Mr.Gar land has come to be reeog lized also as one of the best constitutional lawyers in or out of the Senate, and is as pow erful in debate as any of the best forensic speakers that we have had in thirty years. He is just tisii.g fifty years of age, so that he could nre than thirty when lie was a delegate to the Arkansas Secession Confederate Convention in 18G1 and a mem tier of the Confederate Congress the same year. At thirty-two he was elected by the Arkansas Legislature to the Senate, but that body [which now delights to d him honor.] refused to give him tlie seat. It was lie who made the Test O.itli case as to lawyers in the Supreme Court ot the United States, and gained it over the combined oppo sition of the best legal talent in the country. In 1874 he was elected Gov ernor of Arkansas without opposition, and made the best Governor the State ever had, and in 1876 when his name was mentioned for the Senate, he was exalted to that position without a sin gle voice to say liici nay. Mr Arthur's chances for becoming a Senator rom New York are rapidly waning. The difficulty that lias exist ed between the Sta'wart element and the Half Breed section of the g. o. p. since 1881, lias not. been adjusted either in New York or in Illinois, where Lo gan will undoubtedly be knifed to give Half-Breed Charley Farwell his place in the Senate. It is a little strange that Farwell and his friends should have looked on with complacency when Gov. II rmilton, the friend of Logan, was fixing up his decision in the Chica go fraud case, in the interest, ot Logan. The Illinois General Assembly, how ever, is exactly tied, and one Democrat ic vote would be necessary to elect ei ther Logan or Farwell, and the r is said to have captured that in The shape of a renegade Republican, who is t<>establish himself in favor when the Legislature meets. PHONO. Lost in a Storm. Great Loss of Life Among Oyster Men on the Rappahannock River. BALTIMORE, Dec. 12.— The officers of the steamer Mason L. Weerns,which arrived this morning from the Rappa hannock river, Virginia, reports a fear ful loss of life among the colored oyster men on that river in the stonn of Tues day last. About twenty-five colored men were out in their boats tonging for oysters when the storm arose. The g tie capsized most ali of the boats and those which escaped were unable to re-idi the shore in sab ty. Tha men were thrown into rough wa ter and were unable to swim to shore. Many of ihetu cluug to tfie boats for a time, but were finally washed away and drowned. Very few of them escaped. Eleven bodies have been recovered al ready and as many more are said to be missing. It is scarcely possible that any of these latter have escaped death. Additional intelligence from Ilippa bannock is that fifteen canoes stalled from the Lancaster side,above Ui bana, to sell their oysters when the stonn came upon them. There were three or four white men, and the whole number drowned was twenty-seven. Two more bodies, thirteen in all ,were recovered near Mill Point, further down the liv er. Money to bo Made. It is said that dull times a r e not known by the agents for Ihe great pub lishing house of Gecrge St insou & Co., of Poillaud Maine. The reason of this except.onal success is found in the tact thai they ala ays give the public that which is keenly appreciated and at prices that all can afford.

It should lie remembered that an agent cm do a handsome business without being a wav from home over night. Another advantage —it costs nothing to give the business at rial, and an agent can de vote all his time, or onlv Ins spare mo. inents to it.

We n ive not place to ex p'afn all lure, but full particulars will be sent free to those wh address the firm ; their full address is given above. Convinced. Mr. U. G. King, foreman of the Lee tonia Democrat, Leetonia, Ohio, writes: " DR. S. B. H ARTMAN, Columbus, Ohio, Gentlemen: Some time since, 1 had occa sion to doubt the genuineness of most of the articles that appear in different papers in regard to your wonderful PERUN A, and mv curiosity was so great that I deter mined to write to one of the many people that claimed to have been cured by this medicine, and accordingly wrote to Mrs. J. W. Reynolds, of New Li>bon, this county, and received the following reply." 44 1 received your letter tins evening, and in reply would say that PERUNA, I be lieve, saved my lile, and I can not recom mend it too highly; for all complaints it is the best medicine in existence. It seems to help you as you swallow it. I would advise any one suffering from my complaint to take PERUNA and be con vinced. Yours truly, Mrs. J. W. Rey nolds." Now, that's her card, word for word, and as I am well acquainted with the lady, I do not believe she would lie. It is truly wonderful how your medicine does do good. James L. Mooney, Prospect, Ohio, writes : " For the past ten years I have been suffering from constipation and dyspepsia, and all the evil effects that accompany them. I was treated by a number of doctors, all to no effect. I used several patent medicines, which did me no good, and about three years ago I was seized with a severe nervous trouble, and was obliged to quit farming. I thought my days would soon be over, but last winter I received one of your pam phlets called the 41 Ills of Life." I at once tried your PERUNA and MANALIN. They helped me right away. I used nine bottles of PERUNA and three of MANALIN; and now I am quite well, and able to resume farming. I also had a little child which was attacked with a severe cramp n the stomach; we thought it would go into spasms. I used nothing but PERUNA. We gave it an injection of PERUNA and warm water, and gave it a teaspoonful of the medicine internally every half hour. It was relieved in one hour, and has not been bothered since. I have also used it with as good effect in case of croup and colds. I know that it is a wonderful medicine, and recommend it to all who are in poor health. The above statement I am willing to swear to." W. M. Plants, Deep Valley, Greene county, Pa , writes: 44 Please send me your book on the 4 Ills of Life.' I have used one bottle of PKKUNA, and am great ly benefited." LEGAL AD VER TISEMEjh'S.
