Nor GARFIELD BUT ARTHUR.-Gen.
Arthur is very different man from Gen.
Garfield, but in his way he is quite ss
positive in his character. He is abso.
lutely certain to impress his personal
traits upon the administration of which
he is the head. Those who so fondly
dream that President Arthur may turn
out to be resurrected Garfield, purged
of all human weakness, will find them
selves mistaken. No single event, how
ever impressive, can transform the
character of mature man or change his
convictions, his sympathies, or his tastes
Gen. Arthur goes into the seat of the
Chief Magistrate Of this nation with his
nature unchanged, his ideas unmodified,
his associations derived from his own
past experience. He will give us an
Arthur administration, and it will differ
from a Garfield administration even as
the man Arthur differs from the man
Garfield. There is nothing to be gained
by shutting our eyes to the facts or
probabilities. There may be no sud
den changes, no hasty overturnings, but
when the new administration has put on
its permanent character it will not be
a continuation of that begun on March
4.-Neao York Times, Rep.

tions to the confirmation of the sale OF the

OF Connecticut, the holder Of the non mort
gage bonds of the company, who claims that

of the action of the company was to
chill the bidding and cause the road to sell
for less than its value. An affidavit was Of
fered, showing that George Parsons, OF
New York, who held a judgment against
the road, had directed his agent In Charles
ton to bid $50. 600 for the road If the judg-
ment was not paid, and that the judgment
was then arranged for by the representative
of the purchasing committee. Counter
atfidavits were submitted, aud, after hear

THE APACHE TROUBLES.
a Fight with the E3Ostiles-RepOrt-
ed Army Changes.

TUCSON, October 6-Dispatches from
Dragon Summit report that Indians about
one hundred strong crossed the trail there,
with cavalry under Colonel Bernard in pur-
suit, and that Bernard subsequently came
up with the Indians and attacked them.
Darkness put an eud to the tight.
The IndiaUs and their animals are ali bad
" tagged out, and the soldiers, who came
from Wilcox. are IN the same condition.
One Indian is known to be killtd and three
cOlOred soldiers are wounded. The Indians
are making for the west end of the Mule
Mountains, probably for the San Jose Noun
talns 10 Sonora.
SAN Francisco, October "a Tucson
dispatch says It has been reported that
change of commanders in Arizona has taken
place, Col. Mckenzie succeeding Gen. Viii
cox, and that Col. Mckenzie has placed
M8j Biddle under arrest on the representa-
tons Of Agent Tiffany that the Msior's
action caused the late outbreak Of the
Chiracahs.
A special to the Star, from Camp Wilcox,
deuies this, and ssseTts that Mackenzie,
VINO is WilcOx's junior, was sent to the de-
partment with part OF his own regiment,
the Fourth Cavalry. Being senior officer,

the field.
General Wilcox retains command Of the
department, which, of course, includes
Colonel Mckenzie and his operations.
A special from Benson says that two men
were found murdered this morning about
three miles south of Benson, west of the
Tombstone road. It is supposed that they
were killed by Indians. There are indications
that the fight on Tuesday evening in the
Dragon Mountains has completely demor
allied the hOstiles and caused them to break
up into small struggling bands, which, of
course, can be of little danger, aud can be
soon annihilated.
Reports were received this morning from
DragOon Summit, Arizona, that wounded
Indian scout came to the section house there
and said that the troops and Indians fought
again last night back of the first range OF
mountains supposed to be COchise's strong

CHARLESTON, October 6.-The fair of the
Chester Fair Association, which opened
Tuesday, was largely attended yesterday,
people coming from the adjacent counties

and political qualities of the people, and
impressing upon the farmers the impor-
tance to the country and the necessity of
thrift, industry and progress in their call
ing. The address was we'll received.

Plenty of Time to Flop.
Courter-JourndL


OF course we expect the generality of
anti COnkling organs to flop. But they
should be a little decent about it, They
should not expend all of their slobber on
the new President at once. A newsboy,
who had been rudely treated by gem
tleman in front or the Gait House, came
up and asked in an humble way: Mis-
ter, can you tell me, please sir, what
time it is?" The gentleman, moved by
the boys demure behavior, and withal
regretting his hasty temper, took out
his watch and said politely: 'It is ex-
actlY II o'clock, my son." Then"
says the boy, won't you please, at ex-
actly half past twelve o'clock TO kiss my
foot?" and away he ran, the gentleman
after him. Half a square off a police
man, stopped the gentleman. "Hold on,
my good sir" says the policeman
"What are you chasing that boy for?Y
To which the gentleman, out of breath,
replied: "Why, the little scoundrel told
me to kiss his foot exactly at half-past
twelve" The policeman took out his
watch, and, gazing at it moment, said
deliberately: "Well, upon my soul, you
needn't be in such hurry about it; you've
got at least twenty eight and half
minutes to go on. "

SUICIDE.
Mr.. James n. Glover Takes Two
Ounces of Laudanum and Kills
Himself.
AUGUSTA Chronicle, 9th.

A~t~Stu NfTOHtctei ON.
Yesterday, shortly after two o'clock,
it became known that Mr.. James r.
Glover, a young man well known in
Augusta, had taken laudanum with a
view of ending his life. About one
o'clock Mr.. Glover was shaved at Mr..
Bansley's barber shop, and when he
rose from the chair remarked: "You
may never get paid for that shave, or
you may never see me again" He then
went over to Mr.. Hugh Boyle's saloon,
and after talking with him some time,
gave him a letter, which he re-
quested him not to open until five
o'clock. After he left some one re
marked Perhaps Jim is going to kill
himself, and Mr.. Boyle was inclined to
open the note at once, but finally con-
cluded that Mr.. Glover was playing
joke on some friend, and did not open
it. Upon leaving the saloon he went
to room on Ellis street, nearly in rear
of the Opera House, and in few min
utes informed Mr.. Thos. Radon, who
was on the premises, that he had swal-
lowed quantity of laudanum. 1t was
then ascertained that he had taken two
ounces of the poison, which he had pro-
cured a short time before. Physicians
were at once summoned, and every effort
was made to counteract the effects of the
laudanum, but in vain. He sank into
insensIbility, and continued so. All the
usual remedies were resOrted to, and he
was worked upon without intermlssion
from two o'clock, when it was ascer-
tanned that he had swallowed the poison,
until short time after twelve, when he
died.
Mr. Boyle, as soon as he was informed
that Mr. Glover had taken laudanum,
opened the letter and read it. 1t simply
stated that he intended to kill himself,
and requested that his trunk be sent to
his brother. He also left directions as
to the disposal of pet dog
Mr. Glover was about thirty-six years
of age. While he assigned no reason
for his suicide, it is known that he had
been drinking a good deal lately, and
was very respondent.
