oh, you perhdious old man! You never
shall make love to us again, And don't
you wink and lcer, Mr.. ID. 1t won't do any
good. Your stomach Is too big to be hon
est. You look like Il porpoisc aud lisa
mercy how any one was ever deceived by
you. Go to! Go to! You are little better
than one of the wicked, and you stay out o.
nights, and there's no knowing the COM
pany you keep. You didn't expect It?
Fiddlesticks Black Jack has been fiattcr..

you please! The Democratic party is not
that sort of II girl. 30 on, old chair-warmer,
go on. All this comes from the fuct that

Taken in connection with the fact that
Mr.. Watterson's Washington correspondent

UNDER THE KNIFE.
Another Operation Performed
Upon the President.
Again Relieved from Pus Cavity,
And Doing Well.

WASHINGTON, Monday, s a. MT
having become necessary to make q
further opening to facilitate the es-
cape of pus, we took advantage OF
the improved condition of the Presi-
dent this morning, shortly after the
morning bulletin was issued. He
was etherized, and the incision ex-
tended downward and forward, and
a counter opening made into the
track of the ball below the margin OF
the twelfth rib, which it is believed
will effect the desired object. He
bore the operation well, and has
now recovered from the effects OF
the etherization, and is in an ex-
cellent condition.
(Sigped) d. w. Bliss, J. J. Wood
ward, Robt. Reyburn, D. Hayes
Agnew.
| DESCRIPTION OF THE OPERATION.
The necessity for the operation
which was performed upon the
President became apparent to sur
geons yesterday, when they found
that the drainage-tube of the size
hitherto used could no longer be
passed along the track of the bali
between the ribs. The process Of
granulat.on at that part had gone on
SO far as to partially close the ORR
fee, and the ribs prevented the
pushing aside of the flesh, which
was healing between them, enough
so that the tube could be introduced.
The result of this state of things
was that pus formed in the deeper
parts of the wound rather faster
than it could escape through the
half obstructed opening between
the ribs, and it's gradual accumnla-
tion began to cause disturbance. 1t
was therefore decided to make a
new opening into the track of the
ball below the last rib, so that the
ribs should no longer prevent the
keeping open of the wound by the
solid backing which they afforded
to the granulating flesh between
them. The operation was perform
ed at the request of the other sur
yeons by DR.. Agnew. AS soon as
the patient had been put under the
influence OF either, a long and slight
Iy curved instrument was introduced
into the wound, pushed between the
ribs and carried downward along
the track of the bullet until it's end
could be felt below the last rib from
the outside. Heavlng this instru-
ment i'll the wound as guide, DR..
Agnew then made an exunter incis-
ion below the twelfth rib, cutting
directly through the integumeDt
until his knife met the end of the
first mentioned instrument at Il point
where he wished to intersect the
track Of the ball The operation
was not diicult or dangerous one,
and the patient bore both it and the
etherization extremely well. There is
now an opening to the deeper parts
Of the wound, which does not pass
between the ribs, and which can al
ways be kept free and unobstructed,
and no further trouble from the accu-
mutation Of pus Is anticipated. Since
the operation the President has res
ted quietly, and is now asleep. His
pulse ut This hour 100, and he has
neither fever nor any other unfavor
able symptom.

The Political outlook.

The impending campaigns in vir.
ginia and Mississippi afford an impor
tant study Of the political situation in
the South. The Republican opposi.
ton has become SO Insignificant and
the Democratic majorities SO large
and unwiel that they can no longer
hold together. Want of ou tside
pressure, the constant fading away Of
the war Issues. and internal rivalrfes
and iealousies operate together to
disrupt the Democratic party. The
process Of this falling to pieces of q
great party welded together by ties Of
long association, by once common
purpose aud interest and b. a party
discipline the most rigid aud dictate
rial known to our history, must neces-
sarily be slow. But the dissolution
is progressing nevertheless.
CFor All illustration let us look at
the Mahone movement in Virgins,
the fierce fight between the BArks-
dale and Lamar faCtiuns in Mississippi,
the outspo ell opposition Of the Vicks-
burg Herald to the fraudulent usur-
patton OF MIR. Lynch's seat in Con-
yres., and in our own STATE to the
large Greeuack detection from the
Democratic party, under the able
| leadership OF Col. Lowe.
1t all means that the crack Of the
party whip will soon be no more
potent iu the South than in the
North. The name Democrat is los
ing its magic spell. Times have
changed and interests conflict and
men are forced to be governed by
kStern realities. The great public
questions which Southern Statesmen
4
held swallowed up all ether issues
and called for the united support
without regard to personal sacrifices,
have been removed. Men may now
follow their personal fortunes and ex-
ercise their judgement in public af-
fairs without being stigmatized as
traitors.
As between the two wings of the
Democracy the duty Of Republicans is
plain. The party proper clings des-
Perately to the past-the reactionist>
put that past behind them and ad
dress themselves to living issues. They
boldly advocate a free ballot and Il
fair count. They are willing to ex
tend equal political rights to all men.
While these are questions before the
public minor issues of currency may
be overlooked and coalitions he form
ed for the accomplishment Of the more
Xilal objects.
by pursuing this course Republi-
cans will be striking the most effective
blows for the principles Of their par
Pfy. Those Republicans in Virginia
who contend tor separate ticket art
fighting the battle Of the 3ourbons.
The wise and sensible course for Re-
publicans in Virginia is to support
the MahoDe movement, and the same
is true OF their brethren throughout
the South wherever like situation
s>presrnt= Itself.
