LEADING democrats are of the opiu ion that Mr. Manning's name will be found on the list of Cleveland's Cabi net on March 4th, for secretary of treasury. JOHN KELLY, of New York, the Tammany chief,is in poor health. The election last fall must have been too much of a shock to his physical con stitution. His sickness dates from that time. IMPARL is anxious to have a hand in the Egyptian campaign. Spanish officers are continually offering their services and the Carlists are ready to furnish 4000 volunteers to fight the Mahdi. Two BILLS—one entitled "An act to regulate the taxation of Private Cor porations for public purposes,"—the other "An act amendatory of the sev eral acts relating to the assessment and valuation of Real and Personal Property for purposes of taxation"— have been presented to the legislature by Hon. Leonard Rhone, one of the able representatives from this county, and which if they become a law will do away with many of the abuses now existing in the taxation of the people and will more fairly distribute the bur dens of government among all classes. The injustice of inflicting a compari tively much heavier tax upon the farmer and mechanic than on the rich corporations and stock holders will re ceive the death blow. We should therefore all feel sufficiently interested and actively aid our representative in having the proposed measures passed and made a law. One way to assist in this meritorious work would be to petition the legislature and write per sonal letteis recommending and en dorsing the matter to the several members of that body. We earnestly urge those of our readers who are par ticularly concerned and interested in equal taxation to lend their help m the way indicated. The matter presented in the bills is of vital importance to every taxpayer and we earnestly look for their passage. WASHINGTON LETTER. From our Regular Correspondent. WASHINGTON,D. 0., Feb. 24,1885. Whatever difference of opinion there may be about the justice or the injus tice of retiring General Grant, there is no small amount of sentiment in the country that points to the solemn con clusion that the Government has done all that it ought to do in the way of conferring favors upon the ex-Presi dent. lam inclined to think that some of Grant's predecessors in the Execu tive Chair,whose military services to the country were as valuable as his, should have some national recognition in the way of exaltation, and the fact that a grand-daughter of the author of the Declaration of independence is now liv ing in comparative indigence right here in Washington City,should mantle the cheek of every Grant admirer in the country. The yery graves of Jefferson, of Jackson, of Harrison and Taylor have receiyed no mark of public appre ciation of the services of these men through any action of Congress which favorably considers a proposition to in vest a living ex-President with an ex orbitant salary, after he has fully dem onstrated his incapacity to take care of the wealth which has already been lav ished upon him. I'can scarcely see why there should be so much ado over the composition of Mf. Cleveland's Cabinet. No Presi dent-elect in the last forty years has giyen even a sign of his intentions as to the formation, of his Cabinet until the time of Inauguration. We all re member what a surprise* Grant gave us by the announcement of his Cabinet on, the afternoon of Inauguration Day in 1869. People knew who Mr. Washburn, for Secretary of State, was, ami they knew who A. T. Stewart, as Secretary ot the Treasury, was, but when it came to A. M. Borie, for Secretary of the Navy, not a man in Washington hail ever heard of him, anil nobody discov ered his origin until it was found out that he had been making presents to the Grant family. It is not likely then that Mr. Cleveland is going to he so stupid as to make his Cabinet known an hour before the time comes for its ne cessity, and I furthermore firmly be lieve that he has not decided upon one single member so far as to invite him to a seat as one of the Presidential fam ily. The devices of Washington people for turning an honest penny are both nu merous and ingenious. All along the line of Pennsylvania Avenue, through which Mr. Cleveland's inaugural pio cession will pass, the windows have been advertised for rent at prices rang ing'frora ten to sixty dollars each for the day, while the indefatiguable Yan kee has leased a lineal frontage the whole distance from the Capitol to the White House, projecting from four to ten feet from the building line, upon which stages and platforms are to be erected and seats thereon utilized at rates of 0110 to ten dollars for each seat, with a bri'liant prospect of a tremen dous raise 011 the price by the 4th of March. All the best rooms at the best hotels were long since snapped up at prices that only a Washington hotel keeper knows how to exact, while all the halls and billiard rooms and restau rants [and possibly the churches] will be the temporary abiding place of many of the military organizations that will be unable to secure other quarters. A regiment from Philadelphia has already been given leave to bivouac in the cor ridors of the new State Department, while the famous St vent h Regiment would not come at all because of the want of sufficient room for its 9SO scions of New York's best aristocracy. About twenty thousand dollars have thus far been contributed by the people of Washington to give Mr. Cleveland an unusual 4th of March send off, and the Inaugural Ball, for which about twelve thousand tickets have already been sold, will be just a little superior to anything of that particulai character yet produced 011 this continent. The ball room for this occasion is the spac ious court of the new Pension Ollice, and is of sufficient dimensions to allow four thousand people t dance to the music of four bands which will be so placed as to be out of hearing of each other. Mr. Cleveland will open the ball by joining in the opening quadrille, the music tor which has been written expressly for the occasion by a Wash ington admirer. PHONO. Miscellaneous News. Milwaukee dispatches report Lake Michigan frozen solid from jshoie to shore. Prices of windows in "bowses along the line of march from the Capitol to the White House, Washington, on in auguration day, are quoted as follows : Best window at best point 011 route for observation.

WILKESBAUUE, .Feb* 18.—Another snow storm preyai'ed here this morn ing, the flakes falling to the depth of three inches. The Susquehanna liver is frozen te the.bottom, and is one sol id mass of ice from Tunkbannock to Xanticoke, a distance of forty miles. Great fears are entertained that there will be an enormous freshet this spring, and that much damage will ,'be done a long tha low lands of the Susquehanna. THE MOST REMARKABLE CASE OF ALL.— A gentleman writes to us from Philipsburg, Centre Co., Pa., that his little girl was horribly afflicted with scrofula. Her body was full of sores ears discharging continually thick yel low purtrld matter, and her eyes so swollen and inflamed as to be almost blind. One Bottle McDonald's Blood Purifier has to all appearances entirely cured her. Our neighbors as well as ourselves consider the cure remarkable. A bonafide case. The adJiess of the family can be obtained from the editor of this paper. JOHNSTON, HOLLO WAY A CO., Philadelphia Agents. Sold by J. Eisenhuth, Milllieitn, Pa. MADE DESPERATE BY HUNGER. Wildcats, which still abound in the secluded places along the Blue mountain ridge from the Susquehanna riyer at Dauphin to the Swatara gap, Lebanon county, are getting bold and venture out into the settlements during the cold .weather. In the yicinity of the gap last Monday John A. Miller killed a full grown specimen weighing twenty five pounds, for the scalp of which the county officials paid him $2.50. Two others were shot in the same yicinity while raiding on hen roosts recently.

Miss Anna Johnson,of 24 Front street, Columbus, Ohio, says: " 1 suffered from an aggravated form of constipation and indigestion for several months. M y fam ily physician tried all kinds of medicines and pills, but to no effect. I began to think my case \v.l9n. hopeless one. A friend of mine (Mrs. Elvira Redmond,of East I-ong street, this city), called,and seeing the con dition I was in, recommended me to try your MANALIS. I must say 1 had but little faith in the medicine, but after I had taken A few doses I was convinced that M ANA LI N was the medicine for me. After I had taken one bottle I was entirely well of iny complaint. 1 consider it one ot the best remedies for constipation I have ever used. I have several friends who are us ing it. They think it an excellent remedy. I recommend it to all who are afflicted with constipation or indigestion. Any one doubting this statement is invited to call on inc at 24 Front street." Mr. Milton Knotts, Urban a, 0., writes: 44 Last Novemberone year ago 1 was tak en sick, and called in our family physician. lle examined me and said I had symp toms of typhoid fever. He gave me medicine for two weeks or more with out any relief. I began to think that my days on earth were fast closing in. I saw at once that his medicine would not reach my disease. Just as I was about to conclude that I would have to die, my daughter brought me one of your pamph lets. I noticed a case whose symptoms were like mine, and PEHUNA and MANA LIN had cured him. I concluded at once to try it. I procured one bottle of PKKU NA and one of MANALIN, and took them ni directed, and before I had used the two bottles I began to receive strength and gain in flesh. I finished the rest of the two bottles and continued its use until the third bottle was used. When they were used I could cat anything 1 wanted tv> and go about my work. I consider that if it hadn't been for your PKRUNA I would have been in my grave. Parties wishing information can write me at the above place. I recommend your medi cine wherever I go." Mr. John R. Davis, Moundsville, W. V.v, writes: " I have been handling your PERUNA ever since its introduction. All who have used it speak highly of its curative properties. I consider it a reli able remedy. Mr. George Fisher, Portsmouth, 0., writes: "lam handling your PKRUNA, and having a good trade on it. It gives splendid satisfaction." A $20.00 BIBLE REWARD.

The mail, who is known 10 his fellow drivers as''John, from Kansas City," was unconscious, being in the heavy stupor which overcomes people who are freezing to death. He was taken into a store, thawed out and after an hour or so revived. Had he been exposed fifteen or twenty minutes longer lie would doubtless have perished. —WHEN your children are threaten ed witlr croup or whooping-cough, he ware how you lull them to sleep with cough syrups whose principle ingredi ents aie morphia or opium.

Mary Cox, a well known and popular young lady wlio liyed near the mouth of the Little Capon river, was taken violently ill. The physician decided that she was suffering from neuralgia of the.stomach and prescribed morphia. A dose was administered at once, and another left with instructions to give it in 24' hours. For some reason the second dose was given in a very short time. In an hour or two the death of Miss Cox was announced, and two days later the body was bured. At the funeral one lady insisted that Miss Cox was not dead, and begged that a phys ician be sent for. That night the dogs of a man living near the graveyard, stationed themselves near the tomb and kept up a persistent howling. The next day the grave was opened and to the horror of all, it was found that the girl had been buried alive. The lining was torn from the sides of the casket and the pillow was in shreds. The poor girl had literally stripped tho clothes from her body. Her hands and arms were torn and bleedimr, the bitten through, and handt'nls of hair was torn from her head. The girl had come to life, and had evidently made a fearful struggle to escape. The awful affair lills the community with horror. UIVKX AWAY FOItONK YKAIt.

The report that a man had been found dead iu bed at the Loyd House shortly after dinner, on Sunday, creat- | eil an intense fever of excitement in our midst, and in a short time that ho-' tel was the centre of attraction. Every body that heaid the report went there to seo the remains, and to learn the particulars of the sorrowful all air. The unfortunate young man, who had thus suddenly b en deprived of life, was Mr. Howard W. Ibickley, traveling salts man for French, Richardson & Co., of Biughamton, N. V.. who had arrived in this place from Kylerton, about four o'clock on Saturday afternoon. After retiring for the night, that was the last known of th? man until about 8 o'clock the following morning. At that hour the porter came down stairs and in formed Mr. How that he couldn't get any answer to his rap from the occu pant of No. 13, but that the gentleman must be sleeping very sound,as he was snoring very loud. Nothing was thought of this, and the room was not visited again until noon; but when that* hour came around, and the man was still in bed, fears began to be felt that some thing was wrong. The cletk went to the door, and after pounding for some time, and getting no reply from the in terior, took his pen knife and managed to push out tho key. Then taking a nother key ho unlocked the door and went in. The man was found lying on his right side, his knees slightly drawn up, and his left hand concealing his mouth—dead, and that from an over dose of opium. In response to a dispatch sent to Howaid, Centre county, l\i., the home of the deceased,Messrs.Cook and Coun cil came here .ind took charge of the remains, and e. C., C. it S. \V.
