Letter Of Sympathy to Mrs. Garfield.

Garfield and his heroic wife in their trying ordeal
have sent the following to the American Minister,
which We publish together with the letter of tho

HONOLULU, Oahu, ii. /.
- August sth, 1881.
United States Minister Resident DC
SIN kthe undersigned beg you to make
known to Mrs. President Garfield. that her country
men in these Islands of the Sea- have felt the deem
est sympathy with her, and with the President. In
their terrible ordeal of suffering, and that our
there ass IS tn sesys Snd

Signed by iOa of the most prominent American
citizens of this city.
LOCATION or THE UNITED STATES
Honolulu, August 29th, 1851
GEsrLEMES ;--lt IL with deep emotion that have
received your tribute to the heroic wife of the
President.
Your words of sympathy and good cheer seem TO
have more profound significance in coming from
these far OH Islands of the Sea-" a friendly vet
still u strange land.
Win you permit few words personal to the SUBJ
iect?
have known General Garfield since the year be-
fore the war began. The longer and better one has
known the President, ahe more astounding and In
comprehensive is the crime Of the man Gutteau
There has been no more causeless and inexcusabIo
assault upon life in the last eighteen hundred
years. Indeed, know nothing that il even re-
motely like it, in all history or mythology unless
II be Acteson, devoured by dogs for being better
hunter than Arteuis.
1t Is inscrutable.
A scholar, gentle and tender as woman; n SOL
der, absolutely without fear OF reproach states
man, building upon the institutes. and with ele
mentary principles; a husband and father reyer
entity devoted and pure In heart; a Christian, of
strong faith and fervsnt pety; aman, of such chiy
breath Of unjust suspicion wounded him like a
stab; this man, but half escaping from the cares
of state, on an errand OF tenderest care and avn
pahy To be shot down like that in the very robiest
and best OF his career-what does il mean Is our
national life 70 be purified only By tho snsrcs Of
wiz forward your tribute TO the noble and de-
voted woman and her husband for whom il Is in
am sure your love aud sympathy cannot
but DO soothing and consoling. thank YOU. on
behalf Of all our country.

Mr. Oscar Wilde

When he first appeared in LondC n
society. he was q pleasant looking
gentleman, tall and comely. on man .
lest good terms with himself, and in
clined to be agreeable to others; in
appearance remarkable for nothing
save the length OF his hair and coat,
and his neckties more U0yGnt and ag-
gressive than is usual in that sober
cline; bat in manner described as
highly peculiar. He had two claims
to distinotion-one thathe had taken
high honors at Oxford, aud the ethes
that be was the original utterer of the
now famous saying; I'VE must try
and live up to our blue china" He
is said to have native wit, and "that
peculiar bsshfulness which is so
essentially Irish" There is a pain
full rumor going about that Mr.. Wilde
has donned his ecoentricities simply
to "guy" the London world, and that
it is he who furnishes Punch with
descriptions of the absurdities OF his
unsuspicious followers.
