Fees OF Doctors.

The fee of doctors is an item that
very many persons are interested in
just at present. We believe the sched-
ule for visits is $500, which would
tax q man confined to his bed for q
year. and in need Of daily visit, over
81 900 year for medical attendance
alone! And one single bottle of Hop
Bitters taken in time would save the
1000 and all the years sickness

MAsoN,s TRIAL.

Although the public generally more than
half approved the attempt made by Ser.
geant Mason to kill Guiteau, it must be
regarded as certain that his military supe-
riors will find no room for lenient treat.
ment of his ofense. For whatever the
public may think of the matter, it is obvi.
GUS that Mason has committed one of the
most serious breaches of discipline and
trust, and that it must be impossible either
to overlook or to punish mildly an act
which strikes at the very roots of military
discipline. 1t has been appositely observed
that the army rests almost solely upon the
popular belief that it is machine which
can always be relied on to obey orders, and
that therefore it is a protection against
such outbreaks as the local militia cannot
be depended upon to deal with firmly. But
it is evident that if the regular army is so
lax in its discipline that guard is allowed
to fire at the prisoner he has been
set to protect, with impunity, its
chief value in the eyes of the peo-
pie will have been lost. And it is
further evident that the court.martial
which is to try Mason cannot take into
consideration any of the matters which
mitigate his offense in the public eye. 1t
can only recognize the fact that he has be.
trayed his trust, broken his contract of
obedience and submission, and committed
what is in effect an act of treason to his
superiors. From a purely military stand.
point, in fact, there is no palliation for
the Sergeant's offense, and we shall expect
that the sentence of the court martial will
be severe. The press and public will quite
probably protest against this treatment of
Mason, but it would be very difficult to
show what other course is open to the
army commanders under the circumstances,
and it is certain that many of those who
would denounce the severe punishment of
Mason could also attack the army promptly
if it relayed its discipline.

CABINET TALK.

No matter what the intentions OF Presi.
dent Arthur may be, and whether or not
he has formed any intentions, the public
are certain to be furnished, from this tine
forward, with the most voluminous state
merts as to what he is about to do OF
course the correspondents have already
formed his Cabinet for him, and they will
no doubt make a couple of dozen Cabinets
in the course of the next week or two.
This kind of idle and irresponsible chatter
however is not so harmless as it seems.
For it has strong tendency to create the
impression that the prejudices and malie-
mites that find their way into print are
somehow reflections of what the President
has said, and thus he is in effect misrepre.
sented. For example, some reckless re-
porter writes that President Arthur will
"send Blaine packing at the first oppor.
I" tunity. He will have no man in his Cabi-
"net who was opposed to Grant, or hostile
"to Conkling." Now though the Presi-
dent has never said anything OF the
kind, and very probably never thought
anything of the kind, many people will
jump to the conclusion that what the re.
porter says is really taken down from the
Presidents lips, and SO erroneous views
are formed as to his purposes. Most people
would be surprised if they could realize how
largely their estimates of public men have
been based upon just such irresponsible and
untruthful representations. This in fact
is how public regulations are most success
fully assailed, and it is very necessary to
keep watch upon the correspondent class
at such time as the present. The truth
is that nothing is yet known as to Presi-
dent Arthur's Cabinet intentions, and that
whatever is said about those intentions up
to the present time has been the widest
guesswork or the boldest and most reck.
less invention. 1t will be time enough to
judge of his course when he does some.
thing.

NEWS FROM STANLEY.

A dispatch states that private letter
has been received from the explorer Stan
ley, dated at Congo, stating that he had
been very i'll, and at one time despaired of
recovery, but that he has now completely
recovered, and is as we'll as ever If this
report is true it will be received as very
welcome news by the public. But even
though the brave explorer may have re.
covered from this illness, he is probably
mistaken in thinking himself as well as
ever. African fever is a disease which
gradually undermines the system, and
though its victims may recover from its st.
