THE PRESIDENT


1t is now more than week since
President Garfield received his dan
gerous wound and he is still reported
by his physicians as in a fair way Of
recovery. While they do not say
positively that he has passed ell dan
ger-which cannot be for some time
yet--they are evidently convinced
that his condition could not have i'm
proved to better advantage than it has
siuce he was first wounded. Friday
was regarded as one Of the critical
days,, as secondary hemorrhage should
then have appeared, if at all, but it
did not occur, and the physicians re-
gard danger from that source as pass
Cd. Pus matter, entirely natural, has
begun to come from the wound and
il lot accompanied By any unfagor-
able symptoms. Mr.. Garfeld's i'm
mediate family feel more cheerful
than during the past few days and the
members Of his Cabinet are in much
batter spirits as the encouraging It'd.
ipgs Of his ultimate recovery are
given. Those, however, who pro-
nounce the PRECEDENT out Of danger
and who declare that his recovery is
only . question ola few weeks have
not studied The case carefully Or read
the information that the physicians
daily give ia their bulletins. There
are remaining JET oftha great dangers

"A an indication Of the general
prosperity Of The country, as well as
the unexampled activity in railroad
building, it is stated that the Den

pany are unable to procure sufficient
number of laborers in this country
and are therefore Advertising in Eng-
land, Ireland, Scotland, and Wales
for 10000 laborers to work on their
railroad extensions in Colorado and
Utah. The company have established
an English agency, which signs two
years contract with laborers at their
own homes, engaging to give them
steady work at high wages, and with
subsistence from the day they report
themselves at Denver or Pueblo.
Notwithstanding the enormous immi-
grafton, there is scanty supply Of
the laborers needed, because many of
the immigrants prefer farming to life
in railroad shanty.

Some Of the newspaper fraternity
who are inimical to Senator Sewell
seem to take delight in efforts to put
him in hole. The question Of con-
firming Stanley Matthews for Associ-
ate Judge of the Supreme Court has
been made the ground of the latest
attack. These papers charge that his
vote was cast in the interests of COR
porations, Mr.. Matthews being regar.
ded as a corporation representative
If General Sewell voted to confirm
the nomination, it is fair to suppose
that he can give satisfactory reasons
for this vote, and that be is no more
open to criticism than other Senators
whose votes have not been questioned.
Just why be should be singled out for
attack it is difficult to understand ~
But it is dot difficult to ascertain how
Senator SewelI voted even though
the secrecy of the executive session
has not been removed. Tt was stated
several weeks ago that Senator Sew
ell did not vote to confirm, and now
the Burlington Enterprise makes a
conclusive answer to the criticisms
so freely INDUCED in by those who
seemingly dislike the Senator. The
editor who enjoys intimate personal
relations with Senator Sewell, says the
latter "did not vote for Stanley Mat
thews, for the good and sufficient
reason that be was paired" and to
our personal knowledge, was at his
Office 10 Camden the day the vote was
taken 10 the Senate. - Woodbury. Con-

Some of the European papers, in
critiscising this country in the light
of the attempted assassination Of the
President, evidently think the politi-
cal situation much more grave than
it really is. The "spOils system" is
undoubtedly great evil, and if left
to grow unchecked it might some day
threaten the life Of the Republic; but
it is manageable, and, as the great
majority Of the people are opposed to
il and possess political freedom, there
is every reason to believe that ii
will be destroyed or kept within
