Miss Mary Packer, the only surviving
child Of the late Judge Asa Packer, who
recently was married very privately to
Charles II. Cummings, of New York, at the
brides palatial residence in Mauch Chunk,
has, with her husband, gone South. The
event has been anticipated by but very few
Of the friends of the bride and groom. Miss
Packer, now Mrs. Cummings has perhaps
the largest annual income of any lady in the
United States. it being estimated at about
$1,000 day, to say nothing of the income
from the accumuiations of interest on the
amount received since the death OF her
father and her two brothers, Robert and
Harry Jackson. Mr.. Cummings, the lucky
bridegroom, is, like Miss Packers father, q
sell-made man. Starting as conductor on the
Lehigh Valley railroad, he has worked his
way mp until he has become the head OF the
New York end Of the enormous business of
the road. He was the intimate friend of the
late President Harry +. Packer, and his rel.
ations with Z. p. Wilbur, the present presi-
dent OF the company, have been intimate and
confidential. Mr.. Wilbur and Mr.. Cum

The inaugural.

The Phoenix has small sympathy with those
Republican papers, few in number, fortunate
ly, which weakly attempt to ridicule and be-
little President Cleveland's inaugural address.
The address is not great state paper, it
contains nothing strikingly new or original,
and does not betray great grasp of states

that the address reads like the utterance of a
sincere, determined man, whose ideas of right
and wrong are clearly defined, and who is in
earnest in meaning to serve the people faith.
fully and place country before party. It is
true that the address is general in its terms 4;
almost of necessity it must be So But new
ertheless its declaration in favor of civil SER
vice reform is positive and unequivocal, and
so also is what Mr.. Cleveland says of the ne
cessity for strict economy in public affairs of
the suppression of polygamy, of the treat
ment of the Indians, and of the maintenance
of the rights of the freedmen.
We believe that Grover Cleveland has en-
tered on his high Office with an earnest pur-
pose to be the President of the whole coun.
try, and we sincerely hope he will have the
independence, the courage and the manliness
to carry out the reforms to which his friends
have pledged him. In all efforts to do this
he will find no more cordial supporters and
well-wishers than among the true Republicans
of the country.
