WEEKLY NEWS. SlUSCHiraiONi vj n K AJiSOI. J. D. ALEXANDER & E. P. SPEER, EDITOnSi. THURSDAY, MARCH 2, 1876. A CHANGE OF BASE. The republicans of Indiana have taot only, in convention assembled, nominated Morton for President, but, an the person of Goodlove S. Orth, advanced a gul ernatorial standard-- bearer, who has to run on a “rags gnoney" platform. In add tion to this, the anti-contraction party, which ■seemed at a discount outside of Ohio and Pennsylvania, has made formida ble progress even in the east, and bids fair to become the most popular in the country. When Wm. Allen was running for governor in Ohio his ideas were scouted by the Republi cans and his defeat compassed by their prodigious efforts- A cry for the repeal of the resumption act as cends vociferously on all sides, and Wm. Allen stands to day the most sagacious man in all the land, as well as the most deserving of a success he "was cheated out of by a people who did not recognize their own interests, as clearly as they were recognized by the old statesman of Ohio. THE RECONSTRUCTED CABINET. Where there is so much smoke chere must be some fire. Washing ton dispatches generally agree that Bristow will not remain long in the cabinet, and one of the latest is em phatic in stating that the President has said in the past three days that Bristow shall not remain in the cab inet. and such is his intense bitterness that, although it is not stated how he will be got riil of, it is certain that he •■nust go. The schedule of the reconstructed Cabinet now stands as follows: Secretary of State—Hamilton Fish. Secretary of the Treasury—Zacha* iah Chandler. Postmaster General Alexander Jdamsey. Attorney General—George H Wih iiams. Secaetary of the Interior —Alphon* no Taft, of Ohio. Minister to England Edward Pierrepont. It is suggested that there may be some change in this schedule. THE WORLD’S OPINION. The New York World would nail the democratic streamer to New York’s masthead. It says: “There is no present reason to doubt that Ohio or Pennsyluania can be recovered from the republican party this fall. There is no reason to doubt that New York will stand fast in the democratic faith of hard money, free trade and home rule. The democracy can lose Ohio and Pennsylvania, yet win the presidential election without a shad ow of doubt- Nobody with an ounce of sense supposes that New York can be lost by the democracy yet the presidential election saved.” The estate of the late Charlotte Cushman is valued at SOOO,OO. This is a very large sum to accumulate by personal efforts on the stage without resorting to theatrical management, but it must be considered that for many years Miss Cushman has not played for less than SSOO a night, and that she sometimes received more, A Washington special states that action of the National Democratic Committee in selecting St. Louis is regarded as a victor}' for the Hen dricks element Law is an expensive luxury in Brooklyn. Mr. Beecher stated before the advisory council last week that that the expenses of the late trial on his side amounted to SIIB,OOO. Wanted, Three hundred cords of TAN BARK.

HASSELKUS, PATRICK & CO. janlß:w2m —• • • San Francisco now manufactures fire crackers instead of importing them from China. In two factories with Slo,ooo capital invested and using raw material to the amount of §7,500, fire crackers of the value of §30,000 were turned out last year at an ex pense for labor of $5,000. —- o o The late Eeverdy Johnson leaves twelve children, about fifty grand children, and several great-grand children, nearly all of whom were pre sent at the anniversary of his golden wedding on November 16th, 1869, Ii is said that the chairman of the Congressional Committee on Apro priations expects to effect a tot 1 re duction in expenditures of $35,000,- 000.
