WAIT ON LIB. CLEVELAND SAY.
IL the Sentinel or the Democracy of In
diana were exercised by no stronger yearn-
ing that Joseph E. Mcdonald be called to
the Cabinet than is Joseph l.. Mcdonald
himself, we should have little to say on the
subject. Nor do we now speak for Mr.. Nc
Donald. whom We have not seen for weeks,
but FOR Indiana and the party. Ia common
with the Democrats OF the State, we rec0g-
nlze in him the statesmansbip, with all that
term comprehends, which would distinguish
the administration OF one OF the departments
OF the Government. Whether in honesty
or practical sagscity, no man is better
equipped than he for portfolio. We also
think Indiana entitled to such recognition
as has been indicated for Mr. Mcdonald.
Some of the reporto1ial gentry who have
assumed the construction Of Mr.. Cieveland's
Cabinet have suggested in the recent
hours that Mr.. Mcdonald is not to be placed.
With Difference TO these lead pencil seers We
shall conclude who are and who are not in
the Presidents Cabinet when he himself has
said 1t. Our one regret is that Mr.. Cleveland
and Mr.. Mcdonald have never met. We are
confident that had this occurred the Presi.

o-risa man 90 matching his own diTectness,
pith and force, that no influence conld have
kept him from Offering or Mr. Med maid

There is going to be an enormous

still "the gods help those who help

GE \ 4 Il i'll EiE us.

A FEW DAYS since We severely
criticised the action Of the Swain
court-nlartiai in declining to receive
Il witness testimony bccallse the man
declared himself 10 be al 'agnoslic"
The conduct af the court in this par
ticu.ar has attracted /, great deal Of
attention and elected Il large amount
Of uhtavorabIe comment. Amongst
Others We clip the following from the
Washington correspondence Of The
Nov York H0rW of recent date:
Speaker Carlisle said the other day
that he believed the tue would come
when the form OF an oath woiid be
done away with in the courts. This
expression of opinion was brought out
in general conversation upon the
subject Of the rejection Of the testimony
of an agnostic in the Swain court
martial. MIR. Carlisle sad that under
the present methods OF taking testi-
mony the evidence of the most worth
less character who took the oath
would be taken against that Of the
most scrupulous and hlgh-minded man
who from his very sense of truth could
not say he knew there was God. He
thinks that there never was a ease
tried in any court where there was not
perjury of some kind on both sides.
Hs nsver yet has in all his legal ex-
perlence se9n evidence that the oath
alone Restraints Il man from making
misstatements in his own interest.
He would have each man give evidences
without any preliminary form, and
then it would stand according to the
character of the witae2s. Each wit
ness would be upon his honor. There
would be no trouble in providing
penalties for giving false evidence as
there Is now. Ths oath is mere
empty form and should be dropped.
We do not believe there are many
courts IN the country that would
have followed the course of the
Swain court-martial, and in a few
years we hope there will be none.
Mr.. Carlisle neatly defines the differ
ence betweed the glib and conscience

its own officials, and details so an
range that there can be no mixing up
nor getting on or off trains at wrong
times and wrong places. Indeed, it
would not take much thought on the
part of those who have had any ex-
perlence whatever as to crowds to ap-
preciate the advantage the b & O..
possesses in Washington. Then, too,
there are the facilities the lines have
in regard to track room and unrestrict-
ed means of getting trains directly in
to depots. For instance, the b. & O.
is the only road into Washington which
can and does separate its passenger
business SO that the trans from the
West come into Washington on the
tracks of one division and the trains
from the East and North upon the
tracks of another division.
The great Importance of the facilities
may be appreciated from the fact that
all the trains that enter the National
Capital, upon other lines than the B.
& o., come together in q single depot,
and the packing and jamming will be
something terrific to behold, let alone
getting in and about them. The great
number of trains from the Southern
lines alone would completely fill a de-
pot double the capacity of the one in
question, and when to them are added
those from other sections, the chances
are that Il good many passengers will
have to walk into town or spend the
day or night aboard in vain regrets
that tickets were not bought by the B.
& 0.
Another item of no ordinary interest
to Western people is that by any other
line to Washington than the Baltimore
and Ohio all trains from the West have
to come together with trains from the
East and North, and all use one south
bound track for forty odd miles. That
is to say, that no other line but the B.
& 0. has two different divisions into
Washington, one for its trains from
the West and the other for its trains
from the North and East. All this
may prove more or less confusing or
perplexing to those who contemplate
attending the Inauguration, and the
best way to settle all doubt is to de-
eide to go by the B. & O. and thus
avoid all danger Of going wrong.

Eastern TieUs ofMe CouI Tra0e

NeW TorA;.-Bituminous is quiet,
there is some little skirmishing for
orders, but nothing of any Importance
is to be noted; the pooling of the
tide water business has been agreed
upon as noted in this column a week
ago. 1t is to go into effect on the
first of AIarch.-Coal Trade Jourpol.
There are many rumors of contracts
closed, and Of pooling arrangements
completed, but nothing definite Is
known. From the East, however,
come Northumberland reports hat
the Reading ' anderbil; coal is push
ed vigorously, and that the rival re-
gions, Cumberland and Clearfield,
are thoroughly aroused. 1t is some
what remarkable that partly the same
parties who announce that they will
play sad havoc with bituminous coal
through the agency of a slaughtered
million tons of anthracite, are them
selves the aggressors in the struggle
for business among bituminous Goals.
Good steam coal is selling here now
at $29o@$3.
B0ston,-There is more activity in
bituminous coal. For the time being
there is no doubt about the existence
Of the pool. How it viii be in an
other week is a matter for con- acture.
The situation is not vet q clear one
in the minds Of local agents AS Il
general thing the Cleartield represen-
tatives here do not like tho pooling
idea very we'll, although nothing has
come of that feeling as yet. The Cos
sip is Of $3.50 delivered for an open
ing price, and while it will undoubt-
eddy be in that near neighborhood,
local agents have not vet announced
either +. o. b. or delivered prices.
Some coal has already been sold here
Oh contracts, but no figures can boob
tanned. The buyers for manufacture
ing concerns show little disposition
to do bushes at present. Cargo lois
continue at $3.t0(0$3.r0 delivered.

congregations want q change, only to
enter other fields of usefulness where
they may be better appreciated.
The world is full of quacks and
shysters, but Cumberland probably IS
as free from them as many other towns
or cities of the same population in the
country.
1t is not good to see editors wrang-
ling with each other, as it is generally
a sign Of jealousy. If our neighbor
succeeds in any profession we should
all rejoice. But DO We? Let a
stranger come to Cumberland, no mat
ter if he is a minister, editor, doctor,
lawyer, merchant or mechanic, and
let him once ''get up in the world" as
the saying goes, and make money,
how many of his own profession de-
spise him ? The world at large will
praise him, but those in the same bus
mess will naturally lie jealous of him.
How hard it is for politicians to give
up Office. This week we have had q
visit from Col. l.. Victor Baughman,
the new president of the Chesapeake
and Ohio canal company, who We be-
lleve is trying to do something for that
great waterway, which has helped to
make Cumberland what it is by giving
employment to SO many boatmen and
boat builders. AS piece of policy, l
suppose, Louis G. Stanhope, of Wash
ington county, was notified through
the newspapers that L. Mulvaney, Of
this city, who composes half Of the
present State central committee of AL
legany county, Was appointed canal
superintendent in place Of himself.
Stanhope does not seem disposed to
resign, and something sensational may
be expected at the meeting tomorrow
of the canal board in Baltimore. Gro
tation in Office" evidently does not
please Stanhope and Cumberland re-
ceives the appointment. The tolls
will not be reduced to % cents per ton
this year-not much"-so said Presi-
dent Baughman to your correspondent
Tuesday last. The coal companies will
not agree to ship 100000 tons this year
mot much"
But if my letter grows much long

TIE IN.iCG TRATION BALL.

The action Of the executive committee
Of Inauguration ceremnoies at Wash
ington, in designating the Baltimore
and Ohio ticket Offices in the cities,
east and west, as special repositories
for the sale of Inauguration Ball tick
cts, cannot but prove a great advant-
age. as heretofore tickets could not be
obtained for the ball until after arri-
val at the national capital. Everybody
knows where the B. & o. offices are in
the leading cities: 50 Clark street in
Chicago, ) n. High street in Columbus,
173 Walnut street in Cincinnati, 1876 S.
Illinois street in Indianapolis, l01 n.

addresses given, or to ticket agent B.
& Q. office Louisville, Wheeling, Now
ark, GAINESVILLE, Sandusky, Cumber-
land or Frederick, viii receive prompt
attention. At the offices named, those
who desire can purchase the bail ticket
same time as they do their railroad
ticket; while those who want them as
souvenirs do not have to send to Wash
ington for them. Preparations for the
inauguration ceremonies are being
carried forward with the determination
to make them memorable. The BaIti
more and Ohio, as the only direct line
from the west into Washington, has
extended every facility to the exscu
tive aud other committees in so shap
ING matters as to bring about complete

Trains run through solid, no change Of

other lines, All these things are we'll
worth considering before starting.
