An Encouraging Statement from Sec.

Washington, Aug. 26.-Secy. Kirk
wood came out of the cabinet room at
about 10 o'clock, and in reply to the
question asked by a reporter of the
associated press, gave the following
statement Of the presidents case, as
he understands it this morning:
II have never thought, until last
night, that the president would die;
but the information which we received
from the surgeons late in the evening,
was Of such a character as to leave
very little room for hope. The danger
which then seemed most imminent was
the danger Of the absorption of I'M
healthy pus from the swollen parotid
gland. The mental disturbance and
the increased pulse seemed to indicate
that this process of absorption had
already begun, and that it was poison
ing the blood, and thus acting upon
the brain and heart.''
Taking up small piece Of sponge
which lay on the reporters table, the
secretary continued: ssAs under
stand the case, from what the surgeons
have told me, the presidents right par
otid gland Is in some respects like the
sponge. everywhere through it there
are little cells, or pockets. in each Of
which there is an accumulation Of the
pus. The incision that was made day
before yesterday pierced one Of these
pockets, and released the pus which
that particular one contained, but did
not drain the Others, which could not

The following dispatch was sent from
here to-day by the bible conference now

The Christians assembled from many
parts Of the United States in conference

hope is in God. respectfully ask that

for national humiliation and prayer,
that Christians of every name may be
more perfectly united in recognizing and
entreating Divine mercy. In behalf Of

HE LEADING AMERICAN NEWS.
4 PAPER.
The .VeeC York Tribune
The Largest Circulation Among the Best

FOR 1881.

The Largest Circulation Among the Best
People.
During the past year the New York Tribune
reached the largest circulation it attained with
ihe single exception of short period in the first
Lincoln administration. 1t is larger circulation
and more widely distributed over the whole country
than any ev-r enjoyed by any other newspaper in
the United States. This fact may be taken as the
verdict of the American people on the Tribune's
political force, its fidelity to sound principles, and
its merits as newspaper.
For 1884, the Tribune will try to deserve equally
well of the public. What and how much it did for
the success of General Garfield it is content to let
earnest Republicans tell. 1t now hopes to give to
his Administration a discriminating support ef-
fective as its efforts for his election.
The Tribune will labor for, and it confidently ex-
poets the incoming Administration to promote, a
free and fair suffrage, South and North, sound
money, protection to Home Industry, judicous lib
erality in Internal improvements and Civil Service
conducted on business principles, the theory Of
elevating. not Of ignoring or degrading politi
Every citizen who helped to bring in this Admin
istration should watch it's The events to be
recorded in the Tribune for 1881 will therefore have
a peculiar interest. The year promises besides to
show whether the South will still sacrifice every
thing to solidity and whether the Democratic party
after twenty years of disloyalty and defeat. will
dissolve or reform. Abroad it will show whether
England can compose Ireland; whether the Repub-
tic In France, without the support Of the leaders
who established it, can stand alone; whether the
TURK can long>r pollute Europe. In Science it
promises such practical riumphs the use of elec-
tricity for gas, new modes of heating, and new
forms of power in place of steam. In Literature
and Art it offers the very flower Of our nineteenth
century development; in Religion, concentration
OF force and union Of organization simpler creeds
and better work.
No intelligent man will be willing to live through
the year without reading of these things; and he
will be wise to look for them in the journal which
has long enjoyed the distinction of the largest cir
cnlation among the best people. This position Tie
Tribune secured and means to retain by becoming
the medium of the best thought and the voice of the
best conscience Of the time; by keeping abreast of
the highest progress favoring the freest discussion
hearing all sides appealing always to the best intel,
hgence and the purest morality, and refusing to
the ignorant.
The well-known special features of the Tribune
will be seduously maintained. Its gricuural De.
partment will remain the fullest and best The
Household and the Young Folks Department. the
literary, scientific and re 2ous features the stand |
ard market reports will all be kept up and, as op
portunty offers, extended.

Gen. Cameron ON Social Cstracism in the
South.

much to crush out Republican sentiment
in the South as brute force. But you
forget, sir that you will soon haze to con-
tend with a native force in the South
which is growing every day. The prac-
tical men who have sprung from the
Overseer or poor whites and got on in
the world and made money, while most
OF your people lamented the loss of their
slaves and spent valuable time in fruitless
efforts to annul the results of the war,
will upset your theories. 1t is already
evident that your society is changing as
we'll as your costOns and methods.
Ladies naturally desire to marry man
with means, and you will find that the
thrifty man who gets along will marry
into families whose Kitchen he would not
have been permitted to enter before the
war. Women will soon lose their sent-
ment when it comes to choice between
a man who has plenty of means to pro-
vide the comforts and even the luXuries
of life for them and the idle, aristocratic
man whose only legacy is his family
record.
This new element in Southern society
which will spring from the thrift and
energy Of this and new generstion will
make its own society, and its very char
acter will make it tolerant and liberal. 1t
will not be many years before man who
comes South to settle in good faith can
find society of this kind ready to receive
him.
Another generation will see it practic-
ally in the majority, for the thrifty make
the good society, drones never do. Every
generation will widen this circle. In ten
years the division will be practically one
of politics only, while now it is social as
well. The practical class of the South
are already beginning to recognize the
fact that social ostracism against the i'm
migrant, whether lie be rich or poor, is
retarding the growth and prosperity of
this country. and in many sections they
are already getting liberal. The successes
OF thrift make everyone liberal. I grant
that there is a class in the South that will
undertake to keep up the caste distinct
ion, but will very soon be in the minority
This thifty element can afford to be liberal,
and policy true to its intrests in social
and business affairs will be against the
sentiment which ostracises any man on
account of his politics.
