The YORKTOWN CENTENNIAL has
been termed failure by many of our
contemporaries, and SO it may have
been in some respects. But in all
that is best aud most beneficial it was
IN no respect a failure. On the con-
trary, it WAS great success. All the
old thirteen States were represented
by handsome delegations, ard their
soldiers in their marching and bearing
elected the praise of all who saw
them. This, however, in view of the
reputation of the fighting qualities of
the American soldier and sailor drawn
from practical illustrations in two
wars with Great Britain, one with
Tripoli and another with Mexico.
numerous wars and hard fought
battles with the Indians, and the
tIial of arms between our own States.
amounts to very little. But there are
considerations in which the Yorktown
celebration will be productive of the
most excellent results. It will call
upon the United States and the peo
pie thereof the attention of the
learned and best of all the peoples of
Europe. Already the excellent tenn
per OF the speeches and proceedings
have drawn expressions from the
leading political press of Europe COM
mendations that should be treasured,
as above all value. TIE celebration
Of Yorktown showed that tie people
of the United States were SO highly
civilized and had cultivated morality
to so great an extent as to raise them
above the standard of Europe in the
fact that they held no malice a had
forgiven if they had not forgotten the
animosities that grow out of war and
the calamities that are certain to fol-
low in its track. At Yorktown all
the Injuries that were put upon the
Fathers of the Republic were laid
aside and only the wonderful results
Of the glorious struggle for the rights
OF the people to govern themselves
held up to the view of Europe. Even
the old foe that had devastated all the
region around Yorktown and burned
our national capital in the war OF
1Sl2-15, is made to feel regret for
the causes that produced such horrid
acts as the British Generals ordered
their Hessan and savage Indian hire
lings to commit under Arnold and
Tarleton, and their Tory allies.
If there were not so many a. York-
town as some expected, it only proved
that our people are wise enough 10
prefer TO continue at their avocations
and leave such affairs 10 be conducted
only by such as are in authority and
have the inclination thus to spend
their time.
In the celebration of Yorktown the
nations will learn that this govern
ment and this people have no enemies
abroad or at home. That the whole
fifty millions of people, made up of
the best, most learned and moral on
the earth, are united and intent only
on pursuing their peaceful ayocat1ons
while they offer to share the blessings
growing out of their previous hard
fought battles, with all the world and
invite them thither
From the view at Yorktown on
Thursday the future presented no
wars in prospect--no struggles in
which all that is held most sacred is to
be risked-nothing but peace and good
will to man is to be seen by the fifty

Washington Republican, October 20.
The New York tribune, confronted
by this paper with its Infamous calumn-
les against General Garfield, writes un.
der the lash and fairly foams with rage.
The Tribune is lewd apd mercenary, aud
has undertaken the business OF tearing
down the editor of the Republican for
hire because be has assaled certain pub
lie robbers who are its employers. The
vicious old thing pretends to have
spasms Of virtue when 1t has a partIcu-
larly dirty job ON hand, and our repro
duction of its brutal .calumnies against
General Garfield and Its publication of
the letter advocating the assassinati on
oil General Grant are serious obstacles
to its obtain ing hearing.

what had occurred, a decidedly bet.
Ter feeling prevailed throughout the
mansion, AMI though the assurances
OF recovery were far from satisfac-
tory, they were accepted with gratifi-
cation, changing the decided sadness
which had pervaded the house all
The afternoon into feelingof hope
fulness. Among the callers were
noticeable Associate Justice Harlan,
Third Assistant Postmaster Daver
and Representative Desdacoff, of
Virginia. Eager conversations as
10 the probability OF the presidents
recovery were freely INDUCED in,
and before the bulletin could be
brought from the surgeons room TIC
excitement though of calm nature,
was quite intense. Great fears are
entertained that the temperature
would be shown to have fallen still
further below the normal point. The
president has been nourished to-day
by an enemata which as shown by
the bulletin have been retained. II
has been impossible to ascertain any,
thing from the sick room since the
evening bulletin was issued. This
is considered an unfavorable indi-
cation, as surgeons usually have been
quite communicative, at least to the
cabinet officers. A member of the
cabinet just said that up to this
hour nothing had been learn
ed from the surgeons since
the bulletin was ISSUED, be-
tween 5 and 6 O'clock tins evening.
Mrs. Garfield, accompanied by her
son James, went out to ride and re-
manned out about an hour. The
lady looked quite cheerful, as much
so as could be expected under the
circumstances. The presidents pulse
was about ia, temperature about
80, respiration 10.
The mansion has been closed for
the night and all the visitors have
dispersed. Secretary Brown has
just returned from the surgeons
quarters and reports the president
sleeping quietly. At this hour his
pulse has grown less frequent within
the last two hours and no vomiting
has occurred since about o'clock
this evening.

GEoRGETowN, August 15.-Judge
Foster, special mail agent for Texas,
accompanied by Sheriff Wolf, of
Lampasas, and Sheriff Tucker, Of
Williamson county, arrived here ON
Sunday with two prisoners charged
with stealing horses, goods, and
rObbing the mails. They were cap
tured at Lampasas. One of the
party, Jack Harris, was SO badly
wounded ia the fight, which took
place there, that he had to be left
behind. They were taken to Aus
tin to-day.
A fire was discovered in the store
house of e. Moses & Co., this morn
ing, but was discovered in time to
prevent any serious loss. The cause
of the fire is unknown. The loss Is
as yet unknown. A goodly guam
tity Of goods were burned aud 9th

was discovered about daylight. The
parties were insured = companies

LAMPAsAs, August 10. - The
boy Henry Baueriend, who was
shot here last Saturday evening,
died this morning at o'clock. At
the inquest the investigation de-
veloped the fact that John Gwin, a
boy thirteen years old, fired the
fatal shot with pistol which several
boys had been swapping at each
other, supposing the pistol to be I'M
loaded.
Lampasas is urging her claims for
the literary department of tho uni
versity and her prospects for sue
cess are Frightening every day.
Black, Day and Harris, who were
arrested here last week, were claim
cd yesterday by Amos Foster, of
Austin, as the three men who rob-
bed the stage near fredericksburg
recently. Foster identified some of
the money and postage stamps
found on their person. Foster took
Black and Day back to Austin with
him, Harris not being able to travel.
