men ra.her than politicians are like
ly to make the practical interests of the
country their first care, we see ground
for believing that the Cabinet will, by
its practical working, vindicate the wis
dom of its selection
The World says, Grant has made
such a Cabinet as no politician would
have advised such Cabinet as no news
paper could have conjcctured. A Cabi-
net which fills politicians with wonder,
and suppressed dismay.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., 9th.
The AZ pointmcnts of the new Cabinet
continues to be the leading topic of con-
vcrsation in political circles. All the
appointments made, give general salts
faction with the exception of Mr.. A. II.
Stewart to head the Treasury Depart
ment, u large number of Republicans
including several Senators, express their
unqualified dsapproval of the selection
of Mr.. Stewart 1t seems that neither
Gen. Grant nor Mr.. Stewart are aware
that the law of September I'd, 1889, es-
tablishing the Treasury Department,
contained the following section
Sec. 8. That no person appointed to
any office instituted by this act shall di-
rectly or indirectly be concerned or in
tcrcsted in carrying on the business of
trade or commerce. If any person shall
offend against any of the prohibitions of
this act he shall be deemed guilty of
misdemeanor, and forfeit the sum of
$4,000 to the United States and shall,
upon convict.o n, be removed from office,
and forever thereafter shall be incapable
of holding any Office under the United
States.
This act has never been repealed.
| Mr.. Washburne will remain in the
Cabinet only short time, and it is ru-
mored will change places with General
Dix.
Mr.. Borrie will probably decline the
appointment.

\. II. BAILEY, DEAR SIR:
The time has come when the advantages of
your tub are apparent f; nearly all that we are
receiving (unless late fall or winter make) is
strong on top which would not be the case if put
up i'll your tub. II there are any nice diaries in
your vicinity put up in your tub you may pay
cents per ID. more for them than for Summer
diaries put UP in the old style tub. In fact we
don't want any Summer diaries at any price in
the old tubs. We can buy common butter here
lower than you can up there. We think Poul-
try is dull this week, can't tell how it may be at
Christmas. Yours truly

The Illness OF the Empress Charlotte.

This princess is stated by the Austrian
journals to have been for the last fortnight
unable to leave her bed. Her mental
faculties are in state of the most painful
excitement, while slow fever is wearing
away her bodily strength. Her eyes have
O fixed and vacant stare. She speaks con-
stantly of Mexico, describes the habits and
customs of the inhabitants, the beauty and
original aspect of the towns and haciandas,
with considerable beauty of language. She
addresses her husband as though he were
alive, producing the impression on a
listener of speaking in her sleep, yet her
eyes are open. The unfortunate princess
is still under the impression that she is in
danger of being poisoned, and will only
swallow food offered to her by the Queen
of Belgium, her sister in-law. For the last
few months the princess appeared TO have
completely recovered her reason. For days
together, and even for weeks, no sign OF
mental alteration could be discovered
She wrote letters in which the lucidity OF
her ideas and the deiicacy and tact of her
sentiments were remarkable. She devoted
herself to the young Prince Royal with the
most tender solicitude, and after his death
exclaimed, "Poor child, at last you have
gone to rejoin my mother. Soon it will be
my turn to rejoin you

large an area Of country in wheat at this

looking remarkably well. Unless some
disastrous blight shall yet be experienced,
we shall harvest more wheat in 1869 than
in any former year. And on all this At

ready been sown to spring grain, while
much land is now in course Of preparation
for Indian corn. Cur orchards are just
bursting into bloom, and the promise OF

good. Cur meadows and pastures are be-
ginning to feel the need of long, warm,
gentle rain The last two or three weeks
have been very favorable to spring work,
but grass does not start as it should fol
want of soaking rain. Clouds gather to
little purpose and disappear and few
more hot, bright days, will shorten oul
hay crop disastronsly. We want rain.

Important Discovery.

There are in the caves of Lookout Noun.
tain, Tennessee. immense deposits of bat
guano. which analysis has proved to be
superior to Peruvian. These caves (of
which there are eleven in number) have
been infested probably for hundreds OF
years by millions of bats, which hatched,
lived, and died there without ever seeing
the light. The deposits that have accumu-
lated from them are said to be almost in .
exhaustible. One of these caves alone is
twentyone miles in length. This guano
has been tested on vegetation with the
happiest effect. Besides stimulating the
plant, it is said TO act as an effsctual safe
guard against worms and bugs. It con-
tains large per cent. more Of ammonia
than the Peruvian article, and is pro-
ncunced more valuable by those who Lave
tried both.-Lynchburg VirginiGs.

Death from a singular Cause.

Nine months ago the daughter of Dir.
Collins, who lives near Lansing, Michi.
gan. was suddenly afflicted with tooth
ache, and despite all efforts to effect a
remedy the evil increased until, one night
the little one.awoke with piercing scream,
holding the bad tooth in her hand. The
pain continued, however, and looking for
the cavity in the gum, a swelling, looking
like large boil, appeared there, the thing
having grown until it had pushed the
tooth out of its socket. From that time
the swelling gradually bat surely increas-
ed in size. Medical examination showed
it to be cancer, and every effort. by Ian
Get or otherwise, to prevent Its growth,
had been unavajiing. Some time since
the little ones mouth was SO nearly filled
with it that she had to push her food to
her throat with her fingers. and few days
since, the air pipes being closed by the
abominable excresence. she smothered to

Horrible Death from HydrOphobia-SAl-
phur Vapor Baths Unavailtng.

CHICAGO, April 27.
A horrible death from hydrophobia oc-
Cured here yesterday. The victim was a
young man named William Goodwille, of
this city. A few weeks ago friend
brought into the shop little dog picked
up in the street. Goodwille, in fondling
it, was bitten in the thumb. Little notice
was taken of the wound, which healed
over. The first symptoms of hydrophobia
appeared on Sunday morning when he
arose and attempted to wash himself
The sight of the water threw him into
paroxysms. Medical aid was summoned,
but the malady increased during the day,
and at night he foamed at the mouth,
snapped at members of his family, and
was seized with convulsions. Every few
minutes he realized, during his lucid in
tervals, his situation, and begged his
friends to keep away for safety.
Yesterday afternoon it was determined
to try the effect of sulphor vapor bath.
The patient was hsndcuffed in bath for
hall an hour at a temperature of one hun
dred and thirty-six degrees. When taken
out and laid on a lounge he was at first
better, but, fifteen minutes after, expired
in horrible spasms. He leaves wife and
children. The deceased was much es-
teemed.-Special dispatch to the Eoeniaq
