The letter printed to-day from special cor
respondent in the South makes some notes OF
the methods of business in that region, and
furnishes a novelty in the shape of good
word for the class known as poor whites"
An interesting letter, printed elsewhere,
makes brief statement of the reasons which
led 10 the reversal of the vote 10y which the
UNDERGRADUATE department of the University
was abolished. Tle chief of these was the
fact that the end0wmcnts of professorships,
etc. it was found, could not be diverted from
the purpose for which they were granted.
Five of the seven wcll-known lawyers i'll the
University Council declared these and other
legal obstacles to the change to be simply
insuperable."
Canada makes spirited effort to extend her
foreign trade by establishing steamship line
to trade with Brazil. The English capitalists
who have taken up the greater part OF the
new company's stock doubtless know what
they are about, but it is not clear that the
freight and passenger traffic between Canada
and Brazil will be ample enough to make the
experiment successful. The withdrawal of the
American line from the Brazilian trade should
make the Canadians doubt whether they can
succeed under less favorable auspices.
According to an Albany report, Mr.. COnk-
ling has not done rcsigning. Unless Mr.. Platt
ia reelected with him, he will refuse to accept
his commission as Senator. 1t will he observed
that Mr.. Conkling takes his own election for
granted, and has begun, according to his
friends, to threaten already if certain things
are not done for him beside. This is charac-
teristic and refreshing. Indeed it can hardly
be appreciated in a wet season. This an
nouncement should have come in the middle
of long drouth.
The signs multiply that a large majority of
the Republican voters of the State are on the
side of the Administration in the contest which
Mr.. Conkling has wantOnly preeipitated at
Albany. The character of the meetings held
In various parts of the State seems to show
that there is a genuine popular feeling against
the course of the EX-SENATOR which is mega
lively proved also by the fact that no demon
STATIONS of any kind are made in their favor.
The fact is that Mr.. Conkling has left his sup
porters no issue to stand upon. Not even he
would expect reasonable men to get together
in mass-meetings and echo the peevish and
illogical complaints of the letter Of resignation
An Elmira dispatch states that petition call
ing for the election Of Senators in sympathy
with the Administration has been signed by,
90 il is estimated, three-fourths Of the Repub-
ican voters wherever it has appeared. The
Legislators who will reassemble at Albany this
evening should remember that the vast con-
stituency of the State is keenly watching them,
and should hold at their true value the In
triguing influences and deceptive moral and
political standards Of the capital.

President Arthur's Inaugural.

Upon beng sworn in as president of
the United States, for the second time,
President Arthur read the following adj
dress from manuscript:
For the fourth time in the history of
the republic, its chief magistrate has
been removed by death. All hearts are
filled with grief and horror at the hide
Gus crime which has darkened our
land; and the memory of the murder
ed president, his protracted sufferings,
his unyielding fortitude-the example
and achievements of his life and path0s
of his death-will forever illume the
pages of our history. For the fourth
time the officer elected by the people
and ordained by the constitution to fill
a vacancy SO created is called to as
sumo the executive chair. The
wisdom of our fathers, foresee-
ing even the most dire possibilities,
made sure that the government should
never be imperiled because of the I'M
certainty of human life. Men may
die, but the fabrics of our free institu-
more assuring proof could exist of the
strength and permanency OF popular
government than the fact that though
the chosen of the people be stricken
down, his constitutional SUCCESSOR 10
peacefully installed, without shock or
strain, except the sorrow which mourns
the bereavement. All the noble aspi-
rations of my lamented pred
which found expression in his life, the
measures devised and suggested during
his brief administration to correct
abuses and enforce economy, to ad-
vance prosperity, and promote the gen.
eral welfare, to insure domestic security
and maintain friendly and honorable
relations with the nations of the earth,
will be garnered in the hearts of the
people; and it viii be my earnest
endeavor to profit and to see that
the nation profit by the example
and experience. Prosperity blesses
our country. Our fiscal policy
is fixed by law, is well-grounded, and
generally approved. No threatening
issue mars our foreign intercourse, and
the wisdom, integrity and the thrift of
our people may be trusted to continue,
undisturbed, the present assured career
of peace, tranquility and welfare. The
gloom and anxiety which have en-
shrouded the country must make re-
pose especially welcome now. No de-
mand for speedy legislation has been
heard: no adequate occasion is appa-
rent for an unusual Session OF congress.
The constitution defines the functions
and powers of the executive as clearly
as those of either of the other depart
ments of the government, and he must
answer for the just exercise of the discre-
ton it merits, and the performance Of
the duties it imposes. Summoned to
these high duties and responsibilities,
and profoundly conscious of their mag
nitade and gravity, | assume the trust
imposed by the constitution, relying
for aid on Divine guidance and the vir-
tue, patriotism and intelligence of the
American people.

AFTER twelve weeks of suffering, Pres
ident Garfield breathed his last at 1875 p.
M. September 10. Before 10 o'clock DIR.
Bliss had seen the pationt, and found that
his pulse was 98 and ala his lot geP II tKs
slightest degree uncomfortable, and a
reasonably quiet night was ex-
pected for him. A few minutes
after 10 p. N. he awoke from short sleep
and complained of being in great pain.
General Swain Immediately summoned
DR.. Bliss, who found the president I'M
conscious, with very feeble pulse and but
slight action of the heart. In this uncon-
scious condition he fingered for about
twenty minutes and then died. The
immediate cause of death is believed
to have been neuralgia of the heart.
While, within the past few DAYS, the
gravity OF the case had forced the conclu-
sion that the patient could not possibly re-
cover save by miracle, the realization of
the fact has struck the heart of the people
with deep sorrow. The death of Presi-
dent Garfield is to every American as the
loss of a personal friend Vice President
Arthur was telegraphed by the cabinet
and at once took the oath of office, and is
now in Washington in the performance
of executive duties.

waite Secretary Brown.

verse The assistant solicitor OF the treas
ury declares that the assassin can legally
be tried and executed in the District of

INFORMATION received in regard 10 the
condition of Senator b. III. Hill is to the
effect that while the recent and second
operation performed in Philadelphia for
an affection of the tongue was temporarily
a relief and satisfactory in it's immediate
results, there has since been change for
the worse. There is danger that the sem
ator will lose the power of speech.
