From the Baltimore Sun, YoU. s6.
"About two weeks ago l attended a
novel entertainment having rather a
grave object in view" said Capt. Chad

few days ago, at Kerr's salt wharves. s.It
was bazaar held in the loft OF a salt
warehouse is salt Cay, near Turks is

hearse. j contributed by my presence
and cash, and after several DAYS the
bazaar closed with about $40 towards
buying the vehicle" The Lizzie Wilson
arrived on Saturday with 1860 bushels
OF salt.
"The manufacture OF Salt at Turks is.

Chadwick, "has much Of interest TO one
who has never seen the process, which,
by the way, is performed wholly by ma.
ture, the wind and the sun doing the
work. The wind il preferable az an
agent. At Salt Cay where l loaded, there

is then run into the pools by small wheels
like those OF a side-wheel steamer, placed
on the side OF each pool and worked by
hand. Salt makes in about six weeks.
In the process Of granulation the salt
changes its colOr-hrst flesh, aad then
changing 10 a beautiful pink. The strain
upon the eyes is very great when
looking into the beds. When the crystal
IL formed on the bottom the brine is
pumped out by a wheel. The salt is then
raked into heaps and put in half-bushel
bags TO be loaded. The process is going
on continually, and there is always
plenty OF salt on hand. The rainy season
began 10 set In about the time sailed,
and but little salt can be made while IL
lasts, probably till next March. The
salt Is piled IN heaps on the cay, and rain
has Titles effect on 10, but, OF course,
would reduce the saline qualities OF the
still pools OF brine. The salt is used
principally for beef packing. Salt Cay
belongs 20 Great Britain, and has about
GOO Inhabitants, mostly cOlored. Tho
manufacture OF salt Is the principal labor
giving interest. but many maintain them
selves making sbellwork, some speei-

THE Democratic party enter into pow
er with a treasury overlooking with
hundreds of millions of dollars, with the
government endowed with credit such
as to enable it to borrow money at per
cent, with no great Democratic rebel
lion on hand requiring billions of money
to be raised in order to squelch it. All
this state of affairs is due exclusively to
Republican craftsmanship and princi-
pies. Twenty-four years age, when the Re-
publicans succeeded the corrupt reign of
Democracy, there was not a dollar in the
Treasury, the credit of the government
was so poor that it had to pay as high
as IL per cent. for money. Millions of
dollars of arms and Indian bonds had
been stolen by Democratic members of
Buchanan's Cabinet. From this it will
be seen that Cleveland's administration
ought to have smooth sailing in compar-
ison to that of Abraham Lincoln's. But
the indications are that it will have IA
terribly stormy time, judging by the dis
satisfaction shown by his party at his
attitude on the silver question. -Four
years more will tell the story.

Sworn in-Resignation of the Cabinet.
Mr.. Cleveland Sleeps In the White
HOuse-Mr. Arthur's Future.

WASHINGTON, March 5-Grover Cleve-
land is president. The delivery of the in
augural, the solemn oath of Office, the boom
of cannons, the waving of flags and banners,
the shouts of the multitude, the loud notes Of
martial music and the marching of thousands
of troops in long procession, attest this
At II 80 President Arthur rode from the
white house to the capitol to lay down the
robes of office At 1870 President Cleveland
rode from the capitol to the white house, hav-
ing taken them up. So simple yet grand are
the ceremonies which transfer from hand to
hand and from party to party the admins
tration of the greatest nation on the earth.
The presence at the capitol, the solemn oath
of office, the lips reverently pressed upon the
book, the address to the present thousands
and listening millions, the return to the ex-
ecutive mansion, and the thing is done, and
the scepter has passed from the hands that
have held it for twenty-four years to those
that have been vainly stretched toward it so
long.
Mr.. Cleveland delivered his inaugural ad-
dress before being sworn in. The president
elect was clad in full suit of black, a Prince
Albert coat, high, old-fashioned standing
collar, and black tie. In speaking he held
his left hand closed behind him, and empha-
sized his speech by gestures with his right
hand. He spoke without manuscript, but
occasionally consulted small, prepared notes.
His voice was clear and resonant, and he
slowly enunciated his words and occasion
ally turned about as if to note the effect Of
his remarks.
When he first began the crowd applauded
whenever he paused to take breath, but
after awhile it contented itself with chesr-
ing him as he made his principal points His
reference to prohibition of foreign contract
labor called out loud and long continue
applause, but his allusion to civil servic
reform met with faint response.

echoed with the cheers the announce

Attention, Doctors.

Everybody knows that the life of the
average physician is hard one. He is
often compelled to ride great distances
through mud and rain for merely NOM
inal fee. 1t is not fit nor proper for US to
condemn any physician for his work, but
we do assert that his practice can be made
easier, and he can effect more cures by
the proper and judicious use of PERUNA.
If he will only add this great remedy to
his list of ofmedicines, he will find that his
usefulness will be greatly increased. Full
direction for its use will be found in the
"Ills of Life" and he should at once pro-
cure this valuable book.
n. ]. Wright, Business Agent Evening
Herald, Erie, Pa, says: "DR. HART
MANI can not but feel it my duty to
express to you my thanks for the great
benefit received from the use of your
medicines, ,PERUNA and MANALIN.
One bottle of each placed me square on
my feet, after a sickness of four weeks,
which confined me to my bed, and then
left me lame and crippled. Three days
from the commencement of the use of
your remedies the cane was dispensed
with, and in week was perfectly we'll"
Mrs. Ellen Maynard, Oswego, Potter

am feeling quite well. The people say
your PKRUNA and MANALIN are doing
miracle. do not take nearly so much-
opium as l did before"
Joseph Thomas, East Brady, Pa,
writes Il have used your PERUNA and
MANALIN with good results. In the year
of 1880 l was SO bad that | could scarcely
walk. used PERUNA and MANALIN,
and am now as healthy as l have ever
been. l have also recommended it to
several parties, and they have been much
benefited by it."
Mr.. c. H. Harris, New Vienna, Ohio,
writes sour little girl was paralyzed
at thirteen months old, and we resorted
to everything we could hear of for relief,
but she appeared TO get but little better.
Hearing of PERUNk we concluded to try
it, and will say it has done her great
deal of good the first bottle apparently,
giving aid and relief. We have used it for
nervousness in other cases on other per-
sons and found it success. For general
debility, and in fact for any disease, we
don't think anything else can at all COM
pare with it. We have used forty or fifty
bottles, and our house is never without
PERUNA. Our little girl is now eight
years old, and can run any place, was for
four years helpless. PERUNA cured her"

WASHINGTON, March st is estimated
hat 80, 600 people assembled at o'clock in
he public reservations and streets surround
ing the Washington monument to witness the
display of fireworks given under the auspicies
IF the inaugural committee. The display
commenced promptly at the appointed hour,
md proved the most brilliant and imposing
sTer witnessed in this city
The greatest feature ever seen heretofore in
his country was at the Centennial at Phila-
ielphia The number of pounds of material
used Just double what was used on that occa-
ZION. The displays of rockets and other de-
vices was Unexpectedly magnificent, the illu-
muniation of the Washington monument,
whith house and capitol with colored lights
was novel and beautiful and the set pieces
representing portraits of Cleveland and Hen
tricks, national coat of arms and patriotic
legends, ETC., were the most elaborate and
striking ever attempted here. The display
was thoroughly effective throughout and was
enthusiastically received by the vast crowds.
The close of the demonstration was immedi-
ately followed by an exodus from the city.
The immense number of arrivals and total
absence of departures up to 4 p. m was re-
Versed soon after that hour and by sundown
svery departing train began to be crowded
with visitors homeward bound. At least 80
300 persons had left the city before midnight,
including many Of the military organizations.
