The longing hope that lived 6ut TO deceive.

With chastened thoughts of what might have

And waking sudden find the heart grown cold.

A New propOSitiOn,

The New York Tribune discusses the
inability clause Of the Constitution with
much canestness, and strongly indicates
n tendency in some circles to recommend
to the President the calling of an extra
session of Congress to give an op-
portunity for legislation on the
subject. TIE REPUBLICAN, has several
times called public attention to the
fact that President Hayes was absent last
year for two months, and that no incon-
venience was experienced by reason of
his absence from duty. There are no
duties which demand the present exer-
else Of presidential! power. The Presi-
dent is not likely to lose his mind
during his lifetime. Congress will
meet in three months from this time.
Why agitate him by suggesting that he
call Congress together to provide for n
surrender TO the Nice-President of the
powers, for the exercise of which there
is no demand, and is not likely to be be-
fore the regular session. 1t would be q
risky experiment to broaCh such Il subject
at such time. The retiring of General
Garfield from the Presidency in his life
time is not to be thought of unless some
great emergency arises, and there might
be danger in asking him to take the ini-
tial step now by calling an extra session.

The President.

There has been no setback in the sick
room at the White House. The treat
ment of the swollen parotid gland, while
it diminishes the chances of future
danger is necessarily attended with inn
mediate disturbances, which cause iluctu-
ations in the patients pulse. The collec-
tion of pus caused rise of tenn
perature on Monday, which abated yes
tcrday when the pus was released. The
sensitiveness of the gland made the in
cision of yesterday painful, and that n-
creased the pulse. 1t is certain that the
Presidents condition continues to be en-
couraging. -I u Is most likely that the low
condition of last week was largely attrib-
utable to the pressure of the swollen
parotd gland upon the carotid artery,
which supplies the brain with
blood. The removal of that pres
sure has freed the circulation and
allowed the brain to be again nour!shed
with blood. This has cleared the pa
TENTS mind aud done away with much
of the stupor, which seemed to be wholly
caused by exhaustion, while in truth il
was partly due to the temporary weak
ness of the brain from the cause named.
The case eXcites great anxiety, but no
