In yesterdays Oakland Republican
HI. Wheeler Combs, Esq, positively
declines the use of his name in con-
nection with the Senatorial nomina-
ton for Garrett county. He says his
professional duties will not permit
him to accept a nomination. This
act of Mr.. Combs removes from the
field man whom we believe could
have carried the county and whom
we know would have made a good
representatiye.-Cuna6. Ne,os, 23d.

We are promised by the astrono-
mers that the new comet discovered
within a week will shortly become a
brilliant spectacle in the Northern
sky, apparent to the naked eye. Pro-
fesSor Swift claims to have caught a
glimpse of the the new celestial
tramp without the aid of an instru-
ment. If the approaching stranger
should prove to be, as Professor Stone
thinks, an acquaintance Of the an
clients, its advent will be very inter-
esting indeed. His idea is that il is
the comet of 1888 returning. In that
case it will prove a grand object,
judging from the description given of
it five centuries and a half ago by a
Byzantine historian and by the Chi.
nese. While Europe was alarmed at
the appearance of comets the Chinese
recorded their visits and paths with.
out fear and with wonderful exact
ness.

Gladstone to Mrs. Garfield.

WASHINGTON, July 22.-Secretary
Blaine received to-day dispatch
from Minister Lowell covering the
following cordial greeting from Mr..
Gladstone to Mrs. Garfield:
London, July 2l.-Dear Madam |:
You will, 1 am sure, excuse noe.
though personal stranger, for adj
dressing you by letter to convey to
you the assurances of my own feel
ings and those of my countrymen on
the occasion of the late horrible at
tempt to murder the President of the
United States in form more palpable
at least than that of messages con-
veyed by telegraph. Those feelings
have been feelings in the first instance
ofsympathy, and afterward Ofjoy, and
thankfulness almost comparable, and
l venture to say, only second to the
strong emotions of the great nation
of which he is the appointed head.
Indiv ,dually have, let me beg you
to believe, had my full share in the
sentiments which have possessed the
British nation. They have been
prompted and quickened largely by
what l venture to think is the ever
growing sense of harmony and mu-
tual respect and affection between the
two countries, and of a relationship
which from year to year becomes
more and more practical band of
union between us, but they have also
drawn much of their strength from
cordial admiration of the simple
herOism which has marked the per-
sonal conduct of the President, for
we have not yet wholly lost the
capacity of approaching such an ex-
ample of Christian faith and mahly
fortitude. This exemplary picture
has been made complete by your
own contribution to its noble and
touching features, on which only
forbear to dwell, because am direct
ly addressing you. beg to have my
respectful compliments and congrat-
ulations conveyed to the President.
and to remain, dear Madam. with
great esteem, your most faithful SER
want,
w. E. GLADSTONE.
In reply to this Secretary Blaine
might telegraphed as follows:
Washington, d. c., July 22.-Lo-
well, Minister, London: / have laid
before Mrs. Garfield the note of Mr..
Gladstone just received by cable. /
am requested by her to say that
among the many thousand manifes-
tations of interest and expressions of
sympathy which have reached her
none has more deeply touched her
heart than the kind words of Mr..
Gladstone. His own solicitude and
coincidence are received with graft
tude. But far beyond this she recog
nlzes that Mr.. Gladstone rightfully
speaks for the people of the British
Isles, whose sympathy in this nation
al and personal affiiction has been
as quick and sincere as that of her
own countrymen. Her chief pleasure
IN Mr.. Gladstone's cordial letter ls
found in the comfort which it brings
to her husband. The President is
cheered and solaced on his painful
and weary way to health by the many
messages of sympathy which in his
returning strength he safely receives
and most gratefully appreciates.
BLAINE, Secretary.

TuEFr AND REeovERY.-TwOh horses, the
property of Frank and j. Henry, OF Ben
tOnville, Warren county, Va, were stolen
on the night of Oct. Goth. The thieves
escaped with the stolen property to Mary.
land, and traded one to Mr.. Charles, oI
Clearspring, for another horse, which In
turn was sold to Mr.. John Ward, Oh
Sharpsburg. The other stolen horse vas
sold to Mr.. Daniel MHmma, one OF our
Hyery-men. Hand-bills, describing the
stolen horses and Offering reward Tor
their recovery, were distributed through
out Washington county, which led TO their
Identification. On being telegraphed for,
the owners came on, recognized their
horses, and returned with them TO Virgin
ia. Monday morning, an officer from
Front Royal, Va, arrived here with the
information that the supposed criminals
were in custody, and requested Messrs.
Charles, Mumma, Shay and Ward TO go
with him to Front Royal, in order TO as
certain whether ur not the parties arrested
were the ones who offered the horses for
sale. Upon their arrival they had no
difficulty whatever in identifying them as
the culprits. Messrs. Mumma, Shay and
Ward express themselves as highly pleased
with the generous treatment they received
in Virginia, and appear rather amused at
the summary method Of netting out jus
tice to offenders in that State. They ex-
pect to revisit Front Royal about the 2lst
of this month, when court will be in ses-
sion, as witnesses for the Commonwealth.
