The last rites of the church were
said oyer the remains of President
Garfield in Cleveland Monday, and
his remains were temporarily depos-
tied In vault. The city was crowd
ed with people. who came to take a
last view of the casket containing the
remains. The funeral procession was
very large and imposing. The Rev.
Isaac Errett, of Cincinnati, delivered
an eloquent address, and several
clergymen took part in the exercises.
In almost every city in the Union
the bells were tolled, minute guns
were fred and memorial service held.
In England the observance of the
day was almost general. Religious
services were held in London, flags
were at halfmast and many build
ings were draped in mourning.

Our Ticket.

We place at the head of our coll
umns this week, with great deal of
pride and satisfaction, the ticket
nominated Tuesday last. We have
never known a ticket in the county
which gave such general satisfaction,
and especially is this the case with
the nominees for the Office of County
Commissioners. Republicans believe
it to be the strongest ticket ever
brought before the people of the coun-
ty, and Democrats admit that the
chances for the election of any of
their county ticket is less hopeful
than at any time since the formation
of the county. We shall speak more
fully and individually of our ticket
hereafter.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1881-10-01

In his admirable inaugural address
President Garfield said: "The Ma
ton is resolutely facing to the front,
resolved to employ its best energies
in developing the great possibilities
of the future. Sacredly preserving
whatever has been gained to liberty
and good government during the
century, our people are determined
to leave behind them all those bitter
controversies concerning things which
haye been irrevocably settled, and
the further discussion of which can
only stir up strife and delay the on
ward march," Politicians who wish
to merit the good opinion and favor
of the people will do we'll to take
these words to heart. If the death
of the beloved and trusted Chief
Magistrate causes any delay in the
onward march of the Nation, it will
be because of the stirring up of old
controversies which the verdict of the
people has fully settled. Those who,
for personal ends, seek to SOW the
wind OF sectional or fractional strife
will reap the whirlwind of popular
indignation. The Nation bears its
great grief with calmness and digni-
ty. 1t will have little patience with
any who would disturb its season of
mourning with efforts to revive the
bitterness of buried strife.

graph that caucuses would be held
October Sth at Washington by their

mittee of five would be appointed to
arrange details. The result of the
agreement was that Senator Anthony

SpeculatiOns About the Cabinet.

Cabinet talk forms the burden of
conversation in political circles in
Washington, and all sorts of rumors
are afioat. The quid nunces have
about settled on four members of the
Cabinet who are sure to be retired.
These are James, MacVeagh, Blaine
and Hunt. The latter, it is held. is
extremely obnoxious to Southern
Republicans, and MacVeagh, it is
said, is personally disliked by Presi-
dent Arthur. There issaid to be coed
ground for believing that Blaine will
insist upon his resignation rendered
in accordance with the usual custom
on the occasion of new president)
being accepted. Mrs Blaine is re-
ported as having told friends In WASH
ington, before her departure with the
funeral cortege, that such would be
her husbands course. The express
sion is attributed to her that he
would resign before the new presi-
dent would be allowed to retire him.
With regard to James, it is believed
that he will retire from public life,
to accept a responsible position in a
banking concern in New York. Benz.
Harris Brewster, of Philadelphia, is
prominently mentioned as the sue
cessor to MacVeagh, though there are
a great many who believe Arthur
will appoint his friend, George Bliss,
OF New York. Among the late arri-
rivals was ex-Secretary Boutwell,.
He is said to be laying the wires for
the secretaryship of the Treasury. It
does not seem probable that he will
get it. The general opinion here is
that Window will be retained, to
work out his present financial policy.
