A Washington dispatch in the Lon
don Standard says President Garfield
recently said I am going to get well
to beat Conkllng." OF course every
body on this side knows that such a re-
mark attributed to our enfeebled
President is contemplate falsehood.
1t is said upon good authority, how
ever, that when he heard of the end
of the New York contest, the Presi-
dent remarked, IL am glad it is over.

him some foreign mission" There is
more probability that that would ex-
press the feeling Of the President to-
