Is A roimoN only of our edition last week, an error occurred regarding the President's Cabinet. We therefore re publish the corrected list this week. secretary or State James tt. Blaine, Maine. Secretary of the Treasury William Windom, Minnesota. Secretary of the Interior Samuel J. Kirkwood, Iowa. Secretary of War Robert T. Lincoln, Illinois. Secretary of the Navy William H. Hunt, Louisiana. Postmaster General-Thomas L, James, New York. Attorney General Wayne MacVeagh, Pennsylvania. Robert T. Lincoln, the new Secre tary of War is but little known to the public and therefore we think the fol lowing sketch taken from a Chicago ex change will Interest readers : Robert Todd Lincoln, the only sur- lving child of Abraham Lincoln is 37 years of age. He was born in 1S43, at Springfield, 111. He fitted for college at Phillip's Academy, Exeter, N. H. He entered Harvard College, graduating in the summer of 1864. The war was still in progress, and young Lincoln entered the army, taking a place on the staff of Gen. Grant, with the rank of Captain. He served in Virginia through the re mainder of the war, and was present at the surrender of Appomattox. He then entered the Harvard Law School at Cambridge, and pursued the study of law. Completing his law studies, he came to Chicago, and, shortly after ward, was admitted to the Illinois bar. In 1872 he became the law partner of Edward S. Isham, with whom he has remained ever since. Politically he has always been a staunch and rather rigid Republican. He took no active part in politics until last fall, when, as between ruenj he favored Gen. Grant as the Re publicaV candidate for the Presidency. He was twnember of the State Conven tion at Springfield, and was appointed a delegate to the National Convention, but gave up the place in favor of Stephen A. Douglas, Jr. lie was a Presidential Elector on the State ticket in the last campaign. He was married in 18G9 to a daughter of Senator Harlan, and is the father of three children. Mr. Lincoln i3 regarded as a young man of great vigor, ability and executive capacity; remarkable, like his father, for his sound, common sense and a good Judgment, unaffected and modest to a fault, and indefatigably industrious, laborious and energetic in all that he undertakes. The collision which we briefly re rred to last week occurred fourteen iles from Baltimore on the Baltimore nd Potomac road, between the second 'ction of the fast train north, which ft Washington at 1:10 P. M., and a train of empty passenger cars drawn by f wo engines going south to Washington. jrhe train from Washington was made lip of four Pullman sleeping cais next to ihe engine and tender, the first of which was a special car chartered by J.Wyman I Young, of Shamokln, Fa., containing friends of Mr. Young and citizens of 1 Shamokin and vicinity. The next three (contained the Cleveland City Troop, which was a special escort to President Garfield from Cleveland to Washington, was returning as a special escort to Hayes. The fifth coach contained Mr. Mayes and family and friends. The following is a list of the casualties : The killed am J. Wyman Young, of Shamo kln, Pa.; Jbn Oliver, baggage master. The injured are Edvrard Wllllums, right ankle fractured. J. A. Weaver, budly cut over the left eye and ear. J. W. Simonds, cut on left side and head. D. D. Dormer, scalp wound. W. P. Morall, back of head cut. D. D. Gelger, fingers and head out. J. Johnson, conductor Pullman far, right ankle cut. II. Freeburn, engine man, skull frac tured, since died. John Unglaub, engine man, head cut and badly bruised on legs and side.' J porter of the Pullman car, leg broken. Robert dliver, E. M. Skeen, G. Freese, Jacob Rider, Robert Everheart and William Talbott, train hands, were more or less cut and bruised, but not seriously. Henry Freeburn, engineer of ihe empty train, and whose skull was fractured in the collision, had written orders to run "regardless" to Severn station and there wait the arrival of train No. 10, the fast train which had the right of way and John Unglaub, the engineer of No. 10,' had written orders to run to Severn station and there wait for Freeburn's train. Freeburn disobeyed by passing the siding at Severn and the collision could not be avoided by the north bound train. Forty-Seven Years In Harness. Washington, March 7th. Judge James Lawrensen, an old attache of the office, who also acts as Notary Pub lio for the Post Office Department, ad ministered the oath of office to Postmas ter General James to-day. Judge Law rensen has filled a clerical position In the Department at Washington since 1834, a period of forty-seven years. Pre vious to entering the Department here he served fifteen years in the Baltimore Post Office, having entered that office in 1810. Since his connection with the Department at Washington he has ad ministered the oath of office to seven teen Postmaster Generals. A Bad Young Fellow. Cincinnatti, March, 7. Edward Young, son of a prominent attorney a't Georgetown, Ohio, shot and killed George Ashmore, about 10 o'clock Satur day night, and seriously, if not fatally, wounded James Ashmore and Clinton Campbell. Young and James Ashmore have previously had several quarrels. The two Ashmores and Campbell were in Lawill & Inskop's grocery on Satur night, the Ashmores being intoxicated. As they were going out they met Young entering. High words followed, and Young,drawlng a revolver, said : "Don't crowd me or I'll hurt you." He then fired three shots, the first killing George ABhmore, the second striking Campbell in the left Bide and the third taking ef fect in James Ashmore's head. It is thought the latter may recover ,but there is no hope for Campbell. Young is about 18 years old and Jim Ashmore is about the same age. Young was arrest ed yesterday and will plead self-defense. A Philadelphia Mystery. What may turn out a mysterious sui cide occurred on Sunday night at the Market-street Ferry. About 8.30 o'clock slip-tender Joseph W. Orr went Into the ladies' waiting-room to fill up the stove with coal and went into the closet in the rear to see if there were any loiterers concealing themselves to obtain a warm berth for the night, which is not unusu al occurrence. Just as he was coming out he discovered some female apparel lying on the floor, and upon examina tion found it to consist of a " Dolly Varden" overskirt lined with black chintz, a black underskirt, a waist body of the same material and a belt. Sever al days have passed, and as yet no clue to how the clothing came there has been found. It is thought it is a probable su icide. Miscellaneous News Items.

The President la rapidly getting Into his dutlesthe new Cabinet it In full possession of the Executive Departments, and everything goes on as If the change in the administration had taken place a year, Instead of less than a week ago. Since the Inauguration large crowds of vis itors and ofllce seeker have thronged the White House, and tbe pressure upon the Presi dent, and, In fact upon all Influential men, Is greater than was anticipated. Of course some one will have to yield, and before many weeks 1 but few of those who hold prominent positions under President Hayes will be left. The new Cabinet met yesterday, for the first time, but did not consider anything but tbe policy to be pursued In relation to the National Banks. Republican Senators of Influence are under going a steady pressure for assistance to obtain ofllce, that Is perhaps as heavy as that of the President. Senator Conkllng Is particularly besieged, and at the Capitol, sometimes an an office seeker Is pouring an application in each ear of the Benator at the same time. Senators Logan, Cameron, Allison and others are Importuned almost as persistently. Commissioner Le Due will have to go, it Is understood. There are many competitors for the place, but Dr. Loring, of Massachusetts, a gentleman farmer, who makes addresses at all the agricultural fairs, and Dr. Felton In ad dition to being a preacher and a physician, Is, he says himself, a farmer by profession and practice. He has represented the agriculturists of the country in the ways and means commit tee, and has, on the floor at various times acted as the mouth-piece of tbe farmers. He Is back ed by his Independent colleagues from Georgia, and by many members on both sides of the House, and feels quite confident of receiving the nomination from Garfield, his personal friend. Dr. Lorlng is quite confident that be will be chosen by the President. In case Fred Douglass Is displaced as District marshal he is to be provided for as Minister to Brazil, It is said. Gen. Logan will make a determined effort to secure the removal of Commissioner of Pen sions, Bentley. Good on his head I May suc cess attend him. Ex-Treasurer New, says that he is not a can didate for the English, or any other mission j that be wants no ofllce within tbe gift of the administration, and he don't want to be con sidered a sore-head either. It has been definitely decided to appoint Mr. Wra. C. Chandler Solicitor General of the De partment of Justice. His name will be sent to the Senate before the special session is over. Last night when President Garfield was be ing bored to death for his autograph, Editor Blckham, of Dayton told him he could escape a deal of trouble if he would only send for Morey to that class of work for him. It Is understood tbat President Garfield, after a conference yesterday with Attorney General Mac Veagh and Secretary Blaine, decided to re-nomlnato Ex-Senator Stanley Mathews for the Supremo Court vacancy. The nominations will be sent to the Senate In a day or two. Ollvo. The Ladles as a rule like to dress well, and the men like to see them well dress ed. There are some men though who cannot afford to spend very much money for pretty dresses, but for such persons we have some goods which don't cost much, and yet will make up in a stylish manner when combined with some appropriate trimming, and buttons to match, We intend to have at all times this season a good assort ment of this class of goods. F. Mohtimer. Attention. Housekeepers. Special at tention is requested of all housekeepers and those who are about going to house keeping to the advertisement of Messrs. Stephens & lleetem, in another column of this paper on tbe subject of Carpets. From the toneof their "ad." it certainly must be to the interest of all who desire goods in the line of Carpet, Oil ClothB, and Wall Paper, to call on them. They can not or will not be undersold aud their large and attractive stock should be an inducement for any iu want of these goods to at least inspect them. They offer to ship your goods free of cost and thus save you the trouble of hauling them when otherwise burdened. As a rule people do not buy what they do not want, but where wants become apparent then he who is able to supply those wants in the most satisfactory manner is the person who sells cheapest. The proprietors of the Carlisle Carpet House are now ready to do this, and we bespeak for them a large trade this season. We know whereof we speak. Carpet Weaving. "- John W.
