LONDON, August 1.-THE Times
says. If we go back to Gladstone's
speech in the House of Commons on
the introduction of the Land Bill, it
will be seen that the bill in its present
shape as fully satisfies the conditions
of the solution then contemplated by
Gladstone as the original project with
regard to ireland. There ought to be
no difference of opinion among tenant
farmers, at least, in regard to the
value Of the bill. 1t gives them all
and more than all-that reasonable
men among them expected or even de-
manded down to this time last year.
A Berlin dispatch says it is feared
that Brest will shortly be declared in
a state of siege, because of the prev
alence Of social agitation there.
ATHENS, August l7.-0ne of the

francs in his possession.

The Courier-Journal of yesterday
makes this cOmmenton the Presidents s
condition and on the doctors who
write bulletins:
The intelligence from Washington is
not of the CHEEKY, hopeful kind generally
sent by the attending surgeons. Indeed,
from their bulletins, we regret to say we
can gather no great encouragement that
the President will speedily recover. He
is reported Considerably better" every
now and then, but the pulse and tempera-
ture continue too high to convey evidence
that he is growing better. Nearly 1fty
days have elapsed since the President was
Shot, and each day has been giant draft
upon his naturally great physical energies.
The surgeons in charge have been severely
criticised, and from the admissions made
by DIR. Bliss, who has the direction, errors
have been committed in the treatment of
the wound which merit severe criticism.
An attempt to extract the ball now wOnld
probably prove fatal in the Presidents
enfeebled condition, and we can only
commit him 10 the Great Healer, who has
power to give and to take away life.

small Farms and Big Crops.
New York Herald

New York Herald.l
Twenty years ago the State Of Mis-
sissippi, always famous for its cotton
yield, contained about forty thousand
plantations, averaging three hundred
and seventy acres each; now she has
nearly twice as many, but the average
size is one half that of 1860. The
number Of acres under cultivation is
less than in 1860; for scarcely any
rough land has been cleared and some
plantations have been injured by
broken levees, and yet the cot
ton crop is about twice as
large as II was in the good old times.
No better proof could be wanted to
establish the desirability of decreasing
the size Of farms aud increasing the
number of owners; but the lesson
should be earned elsewhere as well as
in the South. Whole counties in the
United States are wretchedly poor be-
cause every farmer is trying to handle
quarter section" "-l60 acres
with only enough capital and
working force to properly till a
quarter as much SOIL A farmer with
two poor horses, two bad plows, boy
or two or a hired man, can get no more
money out of hundred and sixty
acres of land than from forty, but
year after year he will try to do it and
succeed only in getting poorer. The
big farms of California have been the
subject of much envious talk, but
the class of California farmers
aside from capitalists, that make
most money is composed of thu
men who have clustered in colonies
where scarcely a single estate exceed
forty acres. Any poor farmer with
large farm would be better off if h,
we're to give away half his land, 70
then he would be compelled to restric
himself to space that could not yielt
him less, if worked at all and woul,
not put his pocket and muscle to tn
ruinous strain that now they are en-
during.

VICE. President Arthur was at his
home in New York last night sur.
rounded by his friends General Grant,
x-Senator Conkling and other friends.
Dispatches from Washington were re.
ceived by the Vice. President, the
nature of which he would not disclose.
What lovely and select party to wait
for the breath to go out of the Presi-
dents body. There was one vacant
chair, however, one distinguishedindi
vidual who would gladly have been in
their midst but was absent on account
of previous engagement which he
could not break. The country can
exist and prosper even under Arthur,
Conkling and Grant at the head Of
affairs, but all who believe IN the eff
cacy of prayer should spend more
time than ever on their knees petition,
ing the Throne of Grace to spare ouI
President even il in a debilitated con.
dition to the end of his term.

the house Tuesday, August 2, and
was so well pleased with it
that Friday last he brought Mrs.
Grant, his son and his daughter-in-law
to see it. Mrs. Grant was delighted
with the house. The bargain was
formally closed and the transfer made
Monday, the price being $4,000. w.
ID. Luyster, the brother of the build
er, said last evening: my brother
was offered $4,000 for the house a
year ago, but he asked more for it.
He had always been Democrat, but
he voted for Garfield, and when he
was elected he Immediately put the
price up to 100000" "Why did he
let General Grant have it for $50 0O0?"
1T may have been for puff. The
house is elegant, even the basement is
laid in marble tiling."

WASHINGTON, August 16.-It is re-
ported that Guiteau, the assassin, at.
tempted to, kill one of the guards at
the Jail this morning.
LATER.
The reported attempt of Guiteau to
kill guard at the Jail this morning is
entirely without foundation.
A previous dispatch, stating there
was no truth in the story that Guiteau
had attempted TO kill one Of the Jail
guards was based on information re-
ceived from police headquarters.
There is every reason to believe that
the police authorities falsifed the
facts. The Evening Critic, in an ex
ira, gives the following details of the
assault: "This morning at three o clock
while W. G. McGill, a Jail guard
was passing through the corridor
something the appearance of Gui.
teau's cell attracted his attention
Entering the cell, he found the assas
sin in possession off knife. How he
obtained it is a mystery. When h,
demanded the knife Guiteau refused
to surrender it. McGill drew his re
volver and then an exciting tussle en-.
sued, Guiteau making every exertioE
to get the pistol from the guard. He
succeeded after struggle, but McGil
after most strenuous exertions re.
gained possession of it. In the
scufle that followed, the weapon was
discharged and the report brought the
other guards to the assistance oil
McGill, and Guiteau was finally dis
armed. He had succeeded, however,
in cutting McGill's clothing pretty
badly, and came very near inficting
a dangerous wound. Guiteau pre-
tended to be crazy, and complained
that his pistol had been taken from
him.

ANY one who has had to take NOR
phine in case of wound, severe
accident, surgical operation or danger
GUS illness of any kind, knows what a
nauseous disgusting feeling it leaves
on the stomach. Another effect is a
parched and burning sensation in the
mouth and throat and consuming
thirst. When taken regularly for any
great length Of time it literally dries
up the blood and burns out the vitality
of the body. 1t is a deadly drug, only
to be administered with the greatest
care in extreme cases. At first the
effect is very happy on the patient. 1t
is blessed relief, a glorious vision
like dream from Hashesh, but there
is terrible awakening, which comes,
if life is not destroyed, as certain and
realistic as any penalty that follows
the unnatural excitement or strain Of
body or mind. Kept up long it Gre
ates an abnormal taste for stimulants
which, if gratifed, soon leads to the
destruction of all moral, mental and
bodily powers, and death comes to the
relief Of the miserable human wreck.
Any doctor of experience, or any one
who has carefully noted the effects Of
morphine, will recognize this as only
a partly drawn picture, and it does
not require professional experience OF
acumen to draw the inference that the
President has had a surfeit of this
potent and dangerous drug. 1t seems
to have been administered nearly
every night to make him sleep. 0cca-
sionally it has been announced that
he slept without morphine, and it is
reasonable to suppose that these were
the only exceptional occasions. The
doctors have made the recent discov-
cry that General Garfield contracted
dyspepsia during the war. This is
remarkable; he must have lived on
daintier food than most soldiers could
find on either side. During an expe.
rience of four years in camp and hos.

raj Garfeld's splendid constitution
and physique, his temperate habits

health, and not a word about

iections? IF the vomiting, the retching
and the nausea Of the President have
not been brought about by too free
use of morphiEe, and possibly o.
quinine, there is at least some reason
to think so.

If the reports can be relied upon
that come over the wires from Wash
ington, President Garfield is a little
better, and has fighting chance to
recover. 1t would be long, weary
road to travel after he had started
back to health and strength, but many
a one apparently worse has recovered
his full vigor fmanhood. If human
sympathy and good wishes and prayers
could restore him he would soon be
well.
