The report of the Presidents condi-

progress toward recovery was too slow to be
entirely satisfactory.
| CAPTAIN PAYNE, of Oklahoma fame,
is said to be recognizing his colony for an
other move on the Territory. 1t is said that
the would-be colonists will move this time
| from the Texas border, where it is claimed
a narrow point of public land runs down to
the Red River, thus obviating the crossing
| of the fifty-seven miles of Indian lands upon
the Kansas side of the Territory which
gave the boomers so much annoyance last
| fall when they sought to enter from Cald
well. The colony will march some time in
October.
The recent removal of two mail-route
agents in Virginia is occasioning much COM

both belong to the Straightout Republicans

The followers of Gen. Wickham charge that
their removal was solely for political cause,
but the other side claim that they were re-
moved for general inefficiency.

Hope and Fear.

The violent alterations of hope and fear
through which the people bave passed dur
ing the last eight weeks constitute an unex-
ampled episode not only in the history OF
this country, but in the history Of the world.
Indeed, such an episode could not occur in
any other country, because in no other
country is there such universally Of respect
and love for the political institutions thereof.
AS every citizen Of the United States is part
and parcel Of the Government, a vicious blow
aimed at the heart Of the Chief Executive
of the Nation wounds every citizen. Every
citizen resents it as a personal indignity, and
every citizen is touched with sympathy for
the sufferings of the chosen head Of the Gov
eminent Of which he is part. Hence in
every household in the land the cloud Of sor-
row which hangs heavily over the EX-
ecutive Mansion is rejected. Under these
circumstances, the extreme tenderness
which has characterized the sentiments of
the whole people toward President Garfield
and the members of his family in their
great affection is most appropriate, most
triOtism, and an assurance that neither the
strife Of politics nor the greed of gain has
availed to harden the heart Of the
American people. In great emergency
patriotism emerges from the shadow OF fac
tiOnal and partisan controversies, and greet
ings Of universal good fellowship are heart
lily exchanged. A great sorrow mas been Pc.
tent to unite great people. If
the ray of hope of the Presidents
recovery is destined to be dis
PEELED, and the great man finally sinks
away to rest, there is no nook or corner Of
the land where he will not be mourned, no
place in the Nation where his memory will
not be tenderly revered. On the other hand,
il the ray of hope shall expand into the sun
shine Of full assurance Of the Presidents
recovery, there will rise to Heaven one uni
yersal acclaim of thanksgiving.-Chi

A DISASTROUS storm occurred along
the Southern Atlantic coast Oh Saturday. the
9th ult. Its most severe effects were felt at
Savannah, where the gale reached a velocity
of - miles IN hour about midnight, lat which
hour the Signal-service office was unroofed
and all the instruments were swept away.
Hundreds Of buildings in the city were par
TALLY or wholly demolished or urroofed: :
the parks were shorn of some of their finest
trees and otherwise injured: in the GENE.
teries monuments were broken down. There
is not in the whole city of Savannah a street
or square unscarred by the frightful tenn
pest. So blockaded were the streets with
huge trees, great piles of tin-roofing and
bricks, that vehicles could not pass. and
even pedestrians found trouble in making
their way along the sidewalks. There
was no loss of life in the city, but
out on the plantations along the river
and on adjacent islands the killed are num-
bered by the score. At Tybee Island the
storm ragged with frightful force. The
house of Mr.. Henry Solomon, on the ocean
front, which was supposed to be one of the
most substantially built houses on the isl.
and, was blown down and the inmates bur-
led in the ruins, which almost Immediately
burst into flames. The wife and
daughter of Mr.. Joseph Wolf and Mrs.
VOLTS young brother, Joshua Falks, were
taken dead from the ruins. They sought
refuge at the Solomon mansion when the
storm came up as affording greater security
than their own house, which was near by.
Whole families Of colored people were
drowned. The injury to the wharves and
shipping is immense, and the total damage
caused by the storm is too great for any re-
liable estimate.

PRESIDENT GARFIELD's condition on
the 9th Saturday was so extremely criti-
cal that even the sanguine DR.. Bliss for the
first time was forced to admit the improba-
bility of his recovery. The noon bulletin of
that day was the most discouraging vet is:
sued, and non official dispatches all agreed
that fatal termination was anticipated, and
that probably within twenty-four hours.
Greatly to the surprise and delight of all,
however, towards evening the President
rallied somewhat, and the improvement,
although slight at first, continued without
any serious interruption. This improvement
was manifested in four important symptoms
the pulse became lower and stronger, the
stomach resumed its normal functions, the
inflamed gland suppurated freely, while the
wound again presented healthy appear
ance. In short, the President had success
fully passed another and the most serious
crisis yet encountered.

that the new law may be productive of bene-
fits commensurate with the care you have
bestowed upon the enactments. 1t has been
my study to use the exceptional powers con-
fided to me in Ireland with vigilance and
firmness, but with discrimination, while 1
earnestly desire that the condition of the
country may so improve as to enable me to
dispense with or abate the use of temporary
and exceptional provisions"

Last evening, after seeing the President

went to the surgeons room and threw him
self on couch to get little rest; but he
found it impossible to sleep without first
satisfying himself with regard to the extent
and significance Of the patients recent i'm

attendants called him and said the Presi-
dent was awake. Upon going into the sick
room he found the slightly improved condi-
ton Of the afternoon fully maintained. The
patient seemed cheerful and better; his
mind was perfectly clear, and his pulse was
steady at about 104. The regular watches
taken by General Swain, Colonel Rock
we'll, DR.. Edison and DR.. Boynton were
not maintained during the night, for the
reason that these attendants were all too
anxious to sleep, and none ofthem were will

together, therefore, during most of the
night. About five O'Clock the President

Ae arrest Of Ingomar had the
effect to cast a gloom over the en-
tire party, who were beginning to
feel deeply interested in his histo-
Try. All were seated in a circle
round the queen, waiting in silence
to hear what was to be said next.
The queen was making a desperate
effort to conceal her emotions, but
without effect. The two officers sat
staring at each other, evidently
very much embarrassed, while In
gomar was the only one who ap-
peared calm and unconcerned. The
mysterious lady in the black dom

old gentleman, with the long white
beard. She seemed to be anxious.

Ingomar, while she stood near the
corner Of the pilot-house about 80
feet from where the queen and her
party were seated. The strange
conduct Of the lady in the black
domino, had excited the curiosity
of every passenger ON the boat; and
when Ingomar was arrested under
"a charge of willful murder, it was
hard to tell which feeling had the
upper hand, curiosity or indigna-
ton. If IEgomar had intimated al
wish to have the two officers putt
ashore in a canebreak, it would
have been done; in fact Ivanhoe
made proposition to that effect
but Ingomar wouldn't hear to it.
