A STORY BY THE DEAD PRES
DENT.
Relating the Incident of His First
Meeting With DR.. Bliss.

Until General Garfield was removed
to Long Branch, Steward Crump was
one Of his most faithful nurses. He
was always cheerful" said Mr.. Crump
to-day, and had so much nerve. Why,
he used to astonish me at his jokes,
even while he was suffering horribly.
ibid he suffer-
81 should say he did. The frat
week or ten days it was his feet. lie
kept saying, oh, myfeet feel as though
millions of needles were being run
through them l used to squeeze his
feet and toes in both my hands as hard
as | possibly could, and that seemed
the only relief he could get. The day
he was shot and on Sunday he kept
talking all the time, but on Monday he
let up some, and on Tuesday morning
the doctors shut down on his talking.
On Sunday morning, just after the big
crowd Of doctors had cleared out |
\ was alone with the General and DIR,
Bliss. The doctor sat on one side Of
the bed and | was on the other. Gen.
eral Garfield had hold Of DR.. Bliss
hand and turned his head and asked
me i'll knew where he first saw DR..
Bliss. | told him | did not, and he
said then thathe would tell me. Hesaid
that when he was a youngster and
starting for the college at Hiram he
had Just fifteen dollars-a tcn-dollal
bill in an old black leather pocket
book which was in the breast-pocke
of his coat and the other five was IL
his trousers pocket. He said he wa
footing it up the road and as the day
was hot be took off his coat and carried
it on his arm, taking good care to fee
every moment or two for the pocket
book, for the h~ard-earned fifteen dol
lars was to pay his entrance fee at thu
college. After q while he got to think.
ing over what college life would b
like and forgot all about his pocket
book for some time, and when h
looked again found it was gone. Ht
went back %mournfully along the road
hunting on both sides for the pocket
book. After a while he came to {
house where a young man was leaning
over a gate and who asked him, as hi
came up, what he was hunting for
Garfield explained the loss and des
cribed the property, when the younl
man handed it over. The President
by this time was laughing and con.
eluded: That young man was Bliss
wasn't it, d%octor2' The doctor laughed
and said Yes, and when General
Garfield said; He saved me for col,
lege,' answered; Yes; and maybe il
l had not found your ten dollars you
would not have been President of the
United States The President
laughed at that and said if he got well
and made any mistakes in his admin
istratiou Bliss would have to take the
blame"

Northumberland az Home,

A correspondent of the Cincinnati
Commercial gives the following sketch
Of the home life of Mrs. Terhune, pop
ularly known as Marian Harland:
Mrs. Terhune who was a Virginiau,
is now living in Springfield, Mass,
her husband having recently accepted
a call to the First Congregational
church Of that city. He is a noble
man-strong, learned, eloquent, philo-
sophie, and stands on his own merits.
not spoken of as the husband of that
popular novelist, etc. Enter his
crowded church and you feel his pow
er; visit his Sunday school Of over five
hundred mepbers and see what a
grand work he is doing. He is also a
physician Of wide reading and expe-
%rience, and gives his services to the
poor Of his congregation. OF course
he is over worked, as are all people
in the world who are so qualified to
help and guide others.
Mrs. Terhune has a class Of forty
young men in her husbands Sunday
school, who arc enthusiastic in their
Scripture study, and glad to be guided
by her wise counsel. She seems to
be the model minister wife, ready to
lead in good works, sharing in the
religious and social labofs Of her hus
band, with open home for all
who need her aid. She planned
the architecture Of their new
home, and the kitchen is to me the
most interesting part. SO wisely ar
ranged; so fitted up with every posi-
Bile convenience. She is queen there
quite as much as in her draWing.room.
But her hand, strong, yet feminine, is
seen everywhore-in the exquisitely
decorated panels 10 the furniture,
devised and executed by herself.
Light wood set into the dark; such
dainty themes as a cluster Of water
lilies, and a fascinating little cherub
or winged Puck standing in the center
Of one flower parting its beauties with
his rosy tipped fingers. The pictures
of fi,h and fowl in tho dining room
are done by herself, and in the coy

In Sullivan county, near Bristol,
live an old couple on a small poor
farm where they raised two sturdy
sons, both Of whom fell in the war
fighting for the cause that failed. The
old people have worked along for
years, barely earnings living. They
had a few fruit trees growing on differ
ent parts of the farm, and this year
they yielded an abundant crop. The
old people gathered the fruit and
dried it and the other day in a little
one. horse wagon carried it to Bristol
to sell The fruit was weighed. the
merchant placed $40 worth OF goods
in the little wagon and $40in cash in
the old mans hand. AS the old lady
received the money from her husband
and put it away in the old. fashioned
purse, she said, as something seemed
TO rise in her throat:
John, we are richer to-day than we
have been since our boys went
away to the war"
The old man, without saying q word
threw his arms around his old wife
and Rugged her like a young lover,
while they both cried like children.
The clerk, who was standing near,
erept quietly to the back part of the
store and began busting a pile Of goods
that had no dust on them, and that
night he asked his sweetheart to play
twill you love me when I'm DID,"

To meet all possible bubbles Presi-
dent Arthur yesterday again took tt
oath Of Office as President, before
Chief Justice Waite, Of the Supreme
Court. The ceremony took place at
the marble room on the Senate side
Of the capitol. After be had been
sworn in, the President read a brief
and appropriate address, paying a high
eulogium on his predecessor, and de-
claring:
"The measures devised and suggest
ed during his brief administration to
correct abuses aud enforce economy,
to advance prosperity and promote the
general welfare, to insure domestic Sc
curity and maintain friendly and hon
ora5le relations with the nations of
the earth, will be garnered in the
hearts OF the people, and it will be
my earnest endeavor to profit and see
that the nation shall profit by the ex-
ample and experience"
Nothing less than this could have
been said on the subject which en-
cages most peoples minds. Under
general phases the new President
reserves to himself entire liberty Of
action. He announces he will call no
extra session of Congress, and there is
no need of one; but is reserved on the
subject Of an extra session of the
Senate to make provision for vacancy
in the Presidential Office. The Pres
ident, in his brief address, makes one
statement which deserves to be
impressed on all hearts. 1t is NOT
novel, for most intelligent people have
thought out the same ideas. "Men
may die" he says, but the fabrics o.
our free institutions remain mistaken
No higher or more assuring proc
could exist Of the strength and per.
manence Of popular government than
the fact that though tho chosen O
the people be struck down. his Con.
'stitutional successor is to be peace.

SENATOR BAYARD.
An Interview on the IncOming
Administration and tho Demo-
cratic Policy.

Wilmington del } Special to Gin. GaEette.l
Senator Bayard was interviewed
yesterday, in view of the fact that he
was the undoubted choice OF the
Democrats in the Senate before its
adjournment as President pro tenn,
and of the further fact that when the
Senate assemblies he will probably be
eleted as presiding officer before any
organization can take place. The
Senator at FIRST said he would rather
not be interviewed while the hand of
death had scarcely been lifted from
the nations chief. However sad the
present may be the future must be
looked squarely in the face,
After a few moments Of reflection
the Senator went on to say: The
country is coming under an admins
tration for which it has in a great
measure prepared itself. There will
be no crisis, or any evil resulting from
it."
Referring to the question as to the
immediate resignation of the Cabinet,
MI. Bayard said he, of course, took it
for granted that every member would
at once, as a matter of form, resign.
Such a course would be proper. and
according to custom, but 1t did net
follow that the designations must be
accepted. People were not IN q mood
TO take in a good spirit any sudden
change in the administration, espe-
ciaIly if such change would check the
present work against the Star Routes.
Mr.. Arthur is a dexterous political
manager, and be must, of course, see
tais, and put off, for the present at.
least, any changes in his Cabinet.
1.-THE Senate was Democratic, you
know, when it adjourned, said the
Senator, "and it will be Democratic
when il assemblies. The Democrats,
he said, significantly, will be ready to
support President Arthur in a con
seryative administration as thoroughly
as they did Hayes during his last two
years in office"
"Why was no President pro tenn. Of
the Senate chosen before the adjourn
ment?" was asked.
After h~esitatink the Senator said
slowly, II have understood hat Vice
President Arthur refused to vacate
the chair because a particular name
was mentioned to him as that of the
man who would probably be chosen"
As to whether the Democrats, in
case Mr.. Blaine should resign, would
confirm Mr.. OOnkling, we're he nomi
mated by President Arthur, the Sem
ator said he had rather not answer
that question. In conclusion he said
that he and every Democrat in the
land gave Mr.. Arthur their best
wishes for his success, and, said he,
sit is my policy, above all things, not
to embarrass the administration, and
| will assist it in everything | believe
to be right and just. The Democrats
will assist the administration in all
good government, but if the new
President takes steps to create Csbi-
net officers who will cease the prosecu-
ton of the Star route men, then not
only the people, but the Democrats in
Congress, will antsgonize the admin
istration. But this is not the proper
time to talk about such things.
have really not yet recovered from the
shock Of the result Of the assassin's
work"

For little things commend US 10 the
New York Tribune. 1t exceeds in
this hour Of national grief, before the
remains of the late President have
been covered in the grave, the heanest
organ Of the party it claims to repre-
sent. 1t suggests a call of the House
rather than the Senate to provide au
additional life to the Presidency, on
the plea that the Democratic majority
Of the Senate might elect a Democrat
ic President Of that body by treach-
cry. That is, the majority should say
to the minority, electa President pro
tenn, a Secretary in place Of a Demo.
crat, deceased, leave the Committees
as they are in the hands Of the Re
publicans, or it threatens to leave the
Senate without a quorum by the with
draWal of Republicans, or else de-
nounce the Democrats Of the, Senate
as guilty Of treachery. This is about
as low down as anything we have heard
in the history Of parties. The Demo-
Gratis are not responsible in the re-
hottest degree Tor the shooting Of Pres.
ident Garfield, for the resignation
Of Messrs. Oonkling and Plat, for the
death of General Burnside, for the
failure Of the Senate to make due
provision against the failure Of the
Presidential succession. If, after they
elect a President protein, some Ohio
Guiteau should assassinate President
Arthur. tho new Presidents duties
would be confined to administering
the Presidential Office for a few weeks
or months until a new election could
be held in accordance with the pro.
visions Of the constitution. A situa-
ton which it has done nothing to
bring about imposes a duty and re-
sponsibility upon the Democratic
majority in the Senate which that
majority doubtless will fearlessly
accept and honestly discharge.
President Arthur ought to be anx.
ious for a called session Of the Senate.
as he is responsible for the necessity
of such a step to provide an additional
life to his own to prevent, in case Of
any further vacancy, that jar and
strain be says we have just escaped.
Having aceeded to the wishes of Re.
publican Senators he calls an extra
session Of the Senate for October 10.
