 Yes, the principal topic of conver sation here at present is the probabI, action of the incoming administration.
 The speaker was MT. William M. Ash Icy, of 5o6 Maine avenue, a man who's, large and intimate acquaintance witl prominent public men here in Washing ton, renders his opinion of unusua weight.
 The all important question amon1 the clerks of the various departments is who is to go. In my opinion there will be very few changes among the old-tims employees who have been here year ir and year out through several admins trations. The removals will occur among the heads of departments"
 "The sen1e of mistrust which mus necessarily pervade the departments is, suppose, detrimental tot he proper tran. saction of businessW

 More likely, ill of fear of change l don't think Washington is so very ma. iarlous. At the same time l admit that since residing here, have not always felt first-rate. At times have been greatly troubled with sharp.shootins pains. One day my right arm and leg would torture me with pain, there would be great redness, heat and swelling of the parts, and perhaps the next day the Jeff arm and leg would be similarly affected.

He wrote me regard ing his recovery and advised me to try the remedy which cured him. procured a bottle and commenced its use, taking a tablespoonful after each meal and at bed time. had used 1t about a week when noticed a decrease of the soreness of the joints and general feeling of relief persevered in it's use and finally got so could move around without limping. when told my friends that it was warn ers' safe rheumatic cure that had put me on my feet"
 And do you regard your cure as per manent ?"
 "This was more than a year ago, the trouble has not returned and 1 haven't been So we'll in years as am new."
 Speaking of fPresident-elect Cleveland, who, in your opinion will comprise his
