A Strange Story.
Ouh readers may remember tho sin
gular disappearance of Capt. Itehror
last summer, nnd tho untiring efforts of
his friends, and tho Heading Masonic
Lodge, of which ho was a member, to
solve tlio mystcrv. His ordinary ml
ing clothes wero found near a mine,
nnd It was pumped out nt an ex.
penso of several thousand dollars In i Xr
pcctatlon of finding his body. His
business partners were arrested on the
chargoof his murder, nnd together with
other suspected persons wero placed in
prison. One man, owing to tho suspi.
clous attached to him, has becorao ru
ined In business, and U now a drunken
worthless creature
Tlio mystery of Ills disappoaranco is
at last solved. During tho Inauguration
a little girl was In danger of being run
over, and was rescued by a inan In a
mnrlne's uniform. Mr. Colo, tho part
ner of Capt. Reiner's father-in-law, rec
ognized In tho man the.missiny Captain
Jtehrert Ho tapped him on the shoul
der and calling him by name said ho
wanted to see him. Rehrer denied his
identity, but finally, on being Informed
that Colo did not wish to arrest him,
went to tho Utter's room and thoro con
fessed that ho was Ilehrer. Ho gavo as
his motive that ho was in debt, owing
about $a,000, and ho had only if 1,300 to
pay It, nnd was afraid to face his crodlt
ors. All his arrangements wero mado
to Induco his friends to bcllovo that ho
had committed sulci do, or been mur
dered; and with twenty-fivo cents fire
his pocket ho left his place of business,
and got a Job on the Troverton It. It. as
a laborer on the track. After working
there a week, ho hought n man was
.eyeing him curiously, nnd left at onco
for Philadelphia, where ho hired as a
porter In a sugar refinery. Leaving
that city ho finally reached Washing
ton and there enlisted In tlio Marine
Corps.
Mr. Colo suggested that when ho got
home, his story might bo doubted, or
peoplo insist that ho was mistaken, nnd
asked for some token to show his wlfo
and friends. Ilehrer complied, and
handed him his Masonic mark, remark
ing that his wlfo would know that. Ho
did not know that any person had been
arrested for his murder, uud stated that
ho had not read a newspaper sluco ho
left fSchuylk 11' county.
Hehrer's friends think ho is partially
itibano. If not ho should bo punished
for tho wrong dono and misery caused
Innocent parties; and wo hh udder to
think, how un additional item or two of
evidence, might lmvo convicted Innocent
men of murder.
Grant's Inaugural.
Wi: publish Qrant's Inaugural In this
week's issue, nnd would bespeak for It
tho careful perusal of our readers. Its
brevity i3 not only remarkable, but
commendable, nnd Is In perfect keeping
with Qrant's character.
As a literary production it falls far bo-
low an ordinary school-boy composition
and we venture toasserttbat emanating
from any ono elso than tho President of
tlio United Slates it would not havo at
tracted tho slightest attention.
Nevertheless, considering Itns a plat
form of principles of n man elected by
our opponents, it is n milder nnd raoro
conservative document tiian wo had
reason to expect, nnd wo havo
reason to bellovo that it gives more ills-
satisfaction to our opponents than It
docs to us.
Tho first thing in it that attracts
attention is tho self- confidence
with which ho enters upon his duties
Other Presidents from Washington
down havo accepted tho position with
diffidence as to their administrative
abilities, but Grant, thoughentirely un
skilled in statesmanship, "accepts tho
responsibilities without fear."
Again, ho says "On all tho leading
questions agitating tho public mind I
will always express my views to Con
gress." In other words a bank robbery,
a prizo fight, or an ocean yacht raco aro
to ho subjects for Executlvo Messages!
Ho also in tho samo paragraph gives
Congress fair notico that ho will prompt
ly veto all such measures as do not meet
with his approval. Was not this ono
of tho grounds for impeaching Andrew
Johnson ?
Another rcmakablo sentence is, "I
know no method to securo tlio repeal of
bad or obnoxious laws so effectivo as
their stringent execution." That is,
the worse the law the more rigidly he tvilL
enforce tt. Why not enforco tho tcnuro
of office Law then, Instead of begging
Congress to repeal i t ? Why try to ex
empt Stewart from tho Act of 1789, in
stead of enforcing that statute?
On tho Finance question ho takes tho
broad ground that our national indebt
edness should bo paitl in gold. Jlow,
ho does not suggest; and seems to havo
Ignored tho fact that thoro is not enough
goium tho United States to pay off
even the &-20 bonds. On this point
urant comes in contact with somo of
tho nblet men in his own party; and it
will bo difficult for him to convince tho
masses, that a depreciated currency is
good enough fur them, while the lordly
bond-holder must bo paid gold, which
was not in tho contract. On this sub
ject Grant makes uso of tho simile of n
"strong box and tho key" tho meaning
of which requires a stronger Imagina
tion than wo possess.
Tho only other point In tho messago
worthy of notico is his advocacy of tho"
r-iitccntn constitutional Amendment,
which is to take tliequestlon of suffrago
from tlio States. Its adoption gives tho
ballot to negroes overywhero, tho pro
tests of tho peoplo notwlthijlndlnennd
llkewiso enfranchises tlio Indians of tho
plains as well as tho Cblnaimm in Cali
fornia. Those Ttopubllcans who voted
for Grant under tho supposition tlrat ho
was opposod to this indiscriminate bo
stowal of Biiffrugo, can now sco their
mistake, though perhaps too lato to
.Remedy It'
Ono thing is cortaln, Grant must suc
cumb to Congress, or thoro will bo a
rcpVkltion of Johnson's Administration.
If ho does give up, all hopes of reform
during his Presidency may as well bo
nbandoucd.
Amlrou Jolinson.
We publish lit this week's lssuo tho
farewell messago of that Hon-hcarted
patriot Andrew Johnson of Tennessee.
Kor nearly four years ho has filood be
tween tho country nnd tlioso who would
ruin It, nnd ho now returns to his na
tlvo Slato with a character unblem
ished, nnd with tho well-earned tltlo of
"Defender of tho Constitution."
Ho wns not elected by our suffrages,
nnd many of his acts did not meet with
our approval; yet when wo consider tlio
circumstance which surrounded him,
how ho was hedged in on every sldo,
wo must ncknowlcdgo that ho showed
moro than Unman firmness In doing
tho duty Imposed on him by tho Con
stitution.
His terse, vigorous address is a com
pletd vindication of his course, nnd n
tcrrlblo arraignment of tho Iladical
policy in Congress. As n literary pro
duction, nnd ns a Stato paper, it will
livo long after that puorllo production
known as Grant's Inaugural, has passed
Into oblivion.
Wo havo too much faith In Johnson's
vitality in his patriotism, to bellovo
that ho will quietly withdraw nowfrom
tho political arenn. In his natlvo Stato
70,000 wlilto men nro disfranchised
whllo negroes, carpet-baggers, and seal
lawags hold nil tho positions of trust or
profit. Ho left tho Stato in a good finan
cial condition, nnd now under a Brown
low administration it is bankrupt. Let
Andrew Johnson's mission bo to ro
deem TcnncRsco nnd when Beelzebub
shall call Brownlowhomo, ns ho Is like
ly soon to do, let Andrew Johnson
again represent Tcnncs?co in tlio Sen
nto which ho so long adorned. His
masculine mind Is needed thero, nnd
tlio peoplo of Tennessee will sco Hint ho
gets there.
"Let un liave I'cace."
PKTKitsiiuno, March 0. Tho ltepub.
Ilcau State Convention met at noon to
day. Tucker, nu nntl-Wells mon, was
declared tho temporary chairman,
which tho Wells men resisted, nnd n
general tight ensued around tho chair
man's stand. A strong polico forco In
terfered and separated tho combatants.
Mr. Burgess, Muyor of tlio town ap.
pcared nnd made a speech In behalf of
peaco, and tho rival candidates for tem
porary chairman, followed advocating
penco. Another row ensued and tho
Mayor ordered tho polico to clear tho
hall, which was done. Tho delegates
aro now scattered about tho streets, nnd
It Is not known when thoy will rc-os-hen
i hie,
The Cabinet.
Tun long agony is nt last over, and
Grant's Cabinet is formed, and such a
Cabinet ! As remarked by n contem
porary It is "fearfully and wonderfully
made." Not ono of its members has
any claim to statesmanship, while tho
majority of them aro unknown. Tho
Radicals themselves nro astounded, an
nlthough somo of tho minor newspapers
who go ou tlio theory that "whatever
is right" applaud tho choice, the lead
Ing journals of tho party cannotconceal
their disappointment. Tho New York
Times, an original Grant paper1 speaks
out as follows:
Tho feeling in Washington is not
perhaps, a reflex of tho feeling else
where, but tho feeling here among nil
classes and shades of Republicans is ono
oi sevcrouisappointmenr. to say any
thing elso is to misrepresent tho actual
fact . There is, however, an cntiro and
cheerful willingness to wait and seo tho
wisdom ot tno selections demonstrated.
It is difficult to descrlbo tho effect,
and It is a painful duty to say that
gteat disappointment and profound re
gret provafls in consequenco of tlioso
selections, and this, too, not in tho
minds of politicians, nor in tho minds
oi tnoso not cnosen, nut among tho
warmest admirers and stoutest support
ers of tho President. Tlio eminently
respectable chnracter of tho men is
overywhero conceded, but their fitness
lor tneir peculiar positions Is tlio sub
ject of criticism on every hand.
Borlo, from this State, Is a Philadel
phia Union Leaguer, with no more
knowledgo of Government than Brown
low lias of decency. Ho Is ono of tlio
persons whoso appointment McCluro
told Grant, would lead to a Republican
defeat in this Stato next fail.
Wo shall watch tho pulling of this
balky team with interest, nnd It will be
strango indeed If thoy succeed In ce
menting and controlling tlio turbulent
elements of tho Radical party.
Tho Secretary of tho Treasury, A. T.
Stowart is a freo trader, and this in it
self will weaken tho party in this State.
Thoro will bo somo rich developments
ero long, nnd wo confidently predict
that in less than twelve months thero
will cither bo a collision between Grant
and Congress, or elso ho will bo compell
ed to chango Ills Cabinet.
Another Job.
Tin: Radicals arn concoctiug another
plan to fleeco tho Stato, for tho benefit
of party followers.
It has been proposed, doubtless by
hungry radicals, that tho Stato should
appropriate money to reclaim certain
bodies of land, situato in Crawford
County, nnd well known ns tho Con
neaut nnd Pymatuning mnrshes.
Tho quantity of land in theso two
marshes, is stated to bo about 15,000
acres, and tlio estimated cost of drain
age, ic. $31,000,00. Of courso when onco
undertaken tho Stato would bo "In for
it," and many hundreds of thousands
would bo taken from the treasury to
benefit speculators who own theso
swamps,aud who aro uowurging on this
project. Thero is perhaps not a single
farmer in this county, who has not
feomo land he would bo glad to havo re
claimed, and ho has Just as much right
to call upon tho Stato to do it for hi.n,
as these land speculators in Crawford
County. Will wo ever get rid of theso
Radical leeches.

THIS INAUClUltATION.
Tim multitude which gathered to
look upon this pageant, thronging tho
sidewalks and overflowing every nvnlia
bio precinct nbout tho Capitol, wns un
precedented. It was peculiarly Ameri
can in composition and tone, nnd sharp
ly seasoned with tho Irrcprcsslblo spirit
of Young America.
Among tho crowd was tlio mighty
Mulllns, of Tennessee, and Horace
Grecloy,wlillo tho army of office-seekers
literally cumbered tho ground. Tho In
d!c8,omnIprescnlnndlrrcprosslblc,wcro out In full forco nnd feather. Tho avo
nue, tho Capitol grounds, tho Senate
chamber, tho balconies along tho routo
In short, ovcry avallablo spot was gay
with tholr apparel and bright with the
light of their faces.
Among tho features' of tho procession
was tho full-rlgged mnn-of-wnr used at
tho inauguration of President Buchan
an, on wheels, drawn by four horses,
and n printing press, which printed an
ondless number of bulletins, which were
distributed among tlio crowd. Tho
Capitol, doors wero not opened until 10
o'clock, when a rush was mado that
would havo overborne nil opposition
had not tho polico nrrangementS' been
so perfect. Men nnd women toro wild
ly to tho Scnnto galleries, which wero
rapidly filled up. Tho Rotunda wns
closed nnd no admission could boobtaln
cd to tho building except by thoso hold
ing tickets. Tho cast door of tho north
wing, tho north door of thoScnato wing,
and tlio main eastern door alono woro
open. Tho galleries of tho Sonato wero
open to nil holding tickets, without dis
tinction, except tho reporters' gallery,
and that wns reserved for and occupied
by tlio families of tho members of tho
Diplomatic Corps.
At noon, President Graut nnd Vice
President Colfax entered tho Scnato
Chambor. Scats liadt. been placed in
front of tho Secretary's tabloln tho Scn
ato Chamber, for tho occupancy of Gen.
Grant nnd tho Committco of Arrange
ments. Thogallorios wcrocrowded with
Indies, and tho scene was of tho most
brilliant character, wiiilo that upon tho
floor wns very Imposing. All being
ready, President Wndo administered
tlio oath ofoffico to Vice-President Col
fax, who repented, in a firm and loud
voice, tho following words:
I do solemnly swear that I will faith
fully execute tho oflico of Vico-Prcsl-dent
of tlio United States, and will, to
tlio best of my ability, preservo.protcct
and defend tho Constitution of tho Uni
ted States.
Ho then kissed the Bible.
Mr. Colfax then addressed tho Scnato
as follows :
Senators In entering upon tho du
ties in this chamber, to tho performance
of which I havo been called by tho peo
plo of tho United States, I realize fully
tho delicacy as well ns tho responsibili
ties of tho position. Presiding overu
bodv whoso members aro In so largo a
decrco my seniors in age. nnd not cho
sen by tho body Itself, I shall certainly
need tno assistanco oi your support anu
your generous rorbearanco and confi
dence. But, pledging to you all a faith
ful and inflcxiblo Impartiality in tho
determination of your rules,nnd earnest
ly desiring to co-opcrato with you in
mauing ttio deliberations ot tno benato
worthy not only of its historic renown.
but also of tho United States, whoso
commissions you hold, I am now ready
to tako tho oath of ofilco required by
law.
Vice-President Colfax then took tho
chair, and called tho new Scnato to or
der, and tho now Senators wero sworn
in. Tlio procession was then formed to
proceed to tho platform whero General
Grant wns to bo innuguratcd. As soon
as tho procession moved, tho spectators
in tho gallories seemed seized witli a
frantic desire to bo first on tho platform.
Ladles vied with men in rushing and
pushing, and much confusion nnd an
unpleasant Jam was experienced. Many
wero unablo to gain a placo oven on the
Btcns, to witness tho inauguration of
General Grant. Tlio absenco of Presi
dent Johnson was generally remarked.
Tho sccno presented from tho platform
was ono rarely witnessed. A countless
throng woro tightly Jammed together,
nnd look In any direction that ono
might, a sea of head3 was presented. As
soon as General Grant was scon, deafen
ing cheers rang out and continued for
somo time.
On reaching tho front of tho platform
Gen. Grant, who woro a plain black
suit, took tho seat that had been pro
pared for him, with tho Scrgennt-at'
arms of tlio Senate, (Goo.T.Brown,Esq.,
who had cliargo of tho ceremonies,) on
his right, and Chief Justico Chase, who
woro his robes of office, on I1I3 loft. All
being readiness, tho Chiof Justico arose
arfd administered tlio constitutional
oath to General Grant, who also rose.
In a steady voice, but ono iuaudiblo to
all suvo thoso in his Immedlalo vlcinl
ty, tlio now President repeated tho
solemn words :
I do solemnly swear that I will faith
fully oxecuto tho ofilco of President of
tho United States, and will, to tho best
or my nullity, preserve, protect, nnd de
fend tlio Constitution of tho United
States.
Ho then pressed tho sacred volume to
his lips. After tho firing of tho Presi
dential saluto of twenty-ono guns ho
proceeded to deliver tho Inaugural Ad
dress. Ho spoko distinctly, but his
words could, of courso, bo heard by but
n tithe of tho vast assemblage
Loud and long continued 'cheoring
greeted tlio General's words when ho
concluded. Tho members of the Senate,
preceded by tho Sergeaut-at-Arms and
.tho Secretary, thon returned to tho Son
nto Chamber, and tho concourso on tho
platform and bteps ro-cntercd tho build
ing. Afterwards President Grant nc
companlcd by tho Committco of Ar
rangements entered their carriages to
proceed to tho Executlvo Mansion, and
tlio procession was reformed.
AFTEH THE INAUdUHATION.
President Ornnt reached tho While
IIouso after ids inauguration about two
o'clock. Ho was met nt tho door by
General Schofiold, Secretary of War,
who had been left by Mr. Johnson In
charge of tlio Executlvo office. Tlio
latter left tho WhltoHouhont twolvo

of his Cabinet, excepting General Scho

companied President Grant to tho

tho stail'of General Grant wero present.
An Immense multltudo had congregat
ed outsldo of tho gateiof tho Executlvo

Attorney General E. Ri Hoaro,

All tho Cabinet nominations havo
been confirmed.
Tlio nomination of tlio members of
tho now Cabinet took everybody by
surprise. Various persons wero scon lu
tho passago ways in tlio rotunda, and
in front of tlio principal door of tlio
Senate, writing them down nt tho dic
tation of tlioso who had first learned
tho news, whllo excited groups discuss
ed tho merit of tlio Cabinet. Not n few
Congressmen expressed their disap
pointment, expecting other persons to
bo designated for executlvo positions
Information of tho nppointmcnts hav
ing been brought to tho Houso nnd first
mado known on tho Republican side,
so much confusion was raised as to In
tnrfcro with tlio business before that
body. Somo ono said the Cabinet occa
sioned tho excitement, and several
gentlemen loudly nnd impatiently call
ed for tho reading of tho names In order
to gratify their own nnd general curios
ity, Representative Woodward, who
was on tho floor, voluntarily suspend
ing his remarks for tlio names to bo
read.
Mr. McPherson, tho Clerk of tho
Houso, then read them at tho desk, and
everybody listened with closo atten
tion.
Tho excitement was renewed, in tho
midst of which a recess of five minutes
was declared, when tlio subject of Cabi
net otlicors was discussed aud tlio Houso
resumed its business.
OTHEH NOMINATIONS.
Besides tho Cabinet, President Grant
nominated to tlio Senato Columbus Do-
lano, of Ohio, to bo Commissioner of
Internal Revenue; W. T. Sherman, to
bo Genera ; Philip H. Sheridan, to bo
Licuteuant-Gcncral, J. M. Schofiold to
bo Major-Gencral ; C. C. Augur, to bo
Brigadier-General. All of which wero
confirmed, after n brief session.
TUB GEORGIA AND LOUISIANA DELE
GATIONS. Tho Houso to-day discussed the ques
tion of ndmltting tho Georgia delega
tion, but at-thls writing no decision has
been readied. Thero Is no doubt, how
ever, that tho oxtremo Radicals aro
determined to retain a two-thirds power
in each house, and no matter how fairly
and honestly Democrats may havo
been elected, they will not bo admitted,
If thereby thoy will ovcrcomo that ma
jority. Tho Covode-Foster contest from
tho Twenty-first District of Pennsylva
nia, was also under discussion. Sco
field wnnted to ndmlt Covodo, but tho
indications aro that tho subject will bo
referred to tlio Election Committee.
With tho present partisan majority,
Covodo will doubtless securo tlio seat
ultimately.
THE WHITE HOUSE.
Tho work or renovating tho Wliito
IIouso, which badly needs a thorough
cleaning and repairing inside, after tho
incessant wear and tear of several years,
has already commenced. Carriages
havo been calling all day, but their oc
cupants woro in all cases disappointed.
It would boproductlvo of great discom
fort and Interruption to business to
admit tlio thousands wliouro anxious
to bo admitted to tho rooms. Mr.
Grant, fatherof tho Prcsidontis recov
ering from tho effects of his sovero fall
on tho Capitol Bteps yesterday.
Washington, March 7.
CABINET CUITICISMS.
Telegrams, private and public, pour
into Washington, oxprcssivo of tho
disappointment so generally felt over
tno now Cabinet. A despatch to n iron
tleman in tills city from San Francisco
states that tlio press of tho Pacific Coast
aro universal In their regret that their
section has not a represcntativo and
that thoso who aro selected aro so littlo
Itnown. Thero is a general desiro
among Republicans that tho Cabinet
Hhall bo remodelled at tho earliest nrae-
tlcablo moment ; and to this end, ns
telegraphed last night, Governor Cox
will probably tako tho War Department
in placo of Schofiold, whllo James F.
Wllsou will ho appointed to tho Inter
ior, vlco Cox transferred. It Is learned,
-beyond all doubt, that Hon. Georgo S.
Boutwell, of Mass., was tendered by
President Grant tho position of Secro
tary of tho Interior, but declined it,
preferring to remain In tho Houso of
Representatives. His declination, it
may bo well Imagined, changed tho
Cabinet nppolntco for New England,
nnd theroby draggod Judgo Hoar out
of Ids obscurity.
IIOLLINS KESiaNS ONCE MOKE.
President Grant to-dav nccentcd tho
resignation of Commissioner Rollins of
internal Revenue, to tako effect upon
tho confirmation of his successor.
Washington, Morch 8.
the cabinet.
Tho truth about tho Cabinet imbrog
lio is that Mr. Stewart has verbally
iilaood his resignation In tho possession
or General arnnt. Tho latter has not
accepted It, nnd no 0110 knows whether
ho will or not. Mr. Stowart called nt
tho Whito Houso to-day, and durlnu
tho interview which thero took placo
tho situation was discussed at length.
Ho told tho President that ho wns wil
ling but not nnxlous to tako cliargo of
tho Treasury Department, and spoko or
tho position as ono which would bo far
from a sinecure. President Grant is
thcrcforo freo to net as ho deems proper
In tho premises. Ho will doubtless
tako somo action to-morrow, and It is
very generally bcliovcd that ho will
send In n now name. It Is evident
from tho result of tho discussion In tho
ScnnU caucus this morning that tho
acts disqualifying Mr-. Stowart will not
bo revoked by that body. In fact, It wns
thon discovered that two-thirds of tlio
Republican members wero opposed to
tlio repeal. Thonnxloty regarding this
whole matter is most intense, ami has
given riso to many rumors, nmong them
ono that Governor Boutwell Islo go
Into tho Treasury, and thnt Judgo Hoar
Is to resign, and cither Lyman Tro
mnlno or Edward Plcrrepont will bo
appointed Attorney General. It Is
hardly necessary to ndd that nono of
tho statements hnvo any foundation in
fact. It is 4rue, liowovcr, that General
Grant did somo tlmo since tender tho
portfolio of tho Interior Department to
Governor Boutwell, who declined to
ncccpt It, and recommonded Judgo
Hoar for tho placo which ho now fills
Qov. Boutwell says ho is well satisfied
with liis present position In tho House,
and has no present ambition beyond
that. Thero is tlio best authority for
saying that tho Hon. E. B. Wnshburno
will resign from tho Stnto Department
about tho first of Junu next. Ills health
is so poor that ho contemplates retiring
from public lifu altogether. It Is rum
orcd, however, that lie will bo sent to
France. Mr. A. T. Stowart to-night
authorizes your correspondent to say
that if it becomes necessary ho will
trsnsfer all of his iintncnso commercial
interests to the control of threo trustees,
who shall havo exclusive control of it,
and who shall bestow tho profits on
public charities.
OFI'ICE-SEEItEltS.
Tlio city and capital to-day, swarm
with ofilcc-scckers, and thoso desiring
to bo retained in ofUce.Sovoral hundreds
of thoso classes wero around tho lobbies
of tho Senate, this afternoon. It has
been ascertained that tho now adminis
tration has been quite lavish in tho
promiso of positions; nearly all tlio
prominent foreign missions havo al
ready been given nway, and even somo
of tho lower grado of consulates, whllo
tho distribution of domestic offices has
proceeded atn much moro rapid rate,
As a matter of course, tho military and
cx-milltary como in for and will reccivo
tho "lion's share."
THE WOKD "WHITE."
Tho Scnato to-day, for tho third time.
passed tho bill striking tlio word
"whito" out of tho charters and all
laws relating to tho cities of Washing
ton nnd Georgetown, and the District
of Columbia, outsldo of tho cities.
Grant will doubtless sign tho measuro
and then wo shall havo negro jurors,
etc., in further illustration of "equal
rights" in this District.
Tlio cxiio of
GENEIIAL HANCOCK
to Dakotah is also looked up to hero as a
small pieco of malice, in which a now
President should not indulgo in tlio
samo order in which ho restores Phil.
Sheridan to tho command of Louisiana,
wlicru ho is so univerally disliked by
tho conservative population. Tho Dem
ocrats hero feel quito satisfied at tlio
lurn things havo taken, and already
their few stray sheep, who, in Novem
ber last, voted for Grant out of "patri
otism," aro disgusted with their man,
and ready onco moro to enter tho good
old fashioned Democratic fold.
NO MONEY FOR MltS. LINCOLN.
Tho Mrs. Lincoln pension proposition
was substantially killed to-day by its
reforencoto thoCommltteoou Pensions,
at tlio Instanco of Senator Edmunds,
tlio chairman, who is m avowed op
ponent of tho claim.
Washington, March 0.
Tlio Cabinet muddle increases. Grant
and his fricuds tried hnrd to get Stow
art's disabilities removed, but failed,
and so Stewart was compelled to resign.
Tho other Cabinet officers hnvo been
sworn in.
