"The Mortier President" and SAYS the
most appropriate comfort to the American
people are the words of Garfield himself at
the time of the death of Lincoln: "The gov
ernment at Washington still lives"

IN IN vain around whose death bed are buried all
dissensions: The peoples misgivings relative
70 General Arthur are probably unjust to him
and certainly underestimate the good sense
with which the American public opinion uni
formly controls the executive.
FRENCH SYMPATHY.
PARIS, Sept. 20.-The American flag draped
with Grape appears on the Grand Hotel. ALI
the newspapers eulogize President Garfield,
and express profound regret at his DEATH
Iney recall the fact that he was the architect
Oh ms own fortune, and extol his simple mode
OF life and pay tribute to his wifes courage.
Inc Temps, representative of the moderate
Republicans, says his name has been rendered
lmperishable by the fact that during the few
months he passed in power he, by his virtue
and integrity, surpassed all hopes. He was
elected to the presidency as party man, but
as soon as he was stricken he became the re-
spected representative of the entire nation.
Ihis does honor both to himself and his
country. We hope President Arthur will re-
duce party spirit to silence; that he will be
president of the republic, not of section of
the Republican party.
