The following remarkable article on
Lincoln and Garfield, is taken from
the New York Post, and comes from
the fullness of information and the
striking faculty of analysis and des-
cription of Carl Schurz:
1.-The effect on the public mind Of
the attack on President Garfield
differs in kind from that produced by
the attack on President Lincoln in

its close as well as in its progress, his

Silas NJ. Waite, now serving term

of which he was president, actually

the concern was bankrupt. In this
way and by perjured returns he kept
the bank in existence. His motive
for doing so is not clear. but he is
about to sue the stockholders for a

o causelessIy murder that many

to causelessly murder that many
mere gallant men. And Mr.. Davis
also knew, quite as we'll as any one
else, that if Lee and Jackson had
postponed their surrender 80 days it
would have prevented crops being
planted over the whole South, and
IL millions of people would have
been visited with all the horrors of
such CHASTITY famine as usually at
tends so great and destructive war
as the Rebellion was. This illustrates
how little Mr.. Davis cared for human
misery, when his piques and preju-
dices were concerned.
AS regards the genuineness of the
horrors of AndersonYille, we have
only these facts to present, which
seems to preclude the necessity of any
argument on the matter:
Andersonville really began about
the middle of May, 1864. This was
when the prisoners captured after the
beginning of the operations of the
campaign of 1864 began to arrive in
large numbers. The prison really
ended about the middle of Septem-
Der, when the bulk of the prisoners
were removed to other prisons. In
those terrible four months about
10000 men died. These men were
net weaklings from the hospital !;
they were not even the usual class of
men gathered at recruiting rendez-
yous. They were the hardy veterans,
seasoned by years of service, and
from whom all the feeble and ailing
had been vigorously welded out by
field service. We all know the won
derful tenacity with which these
men chung to life; they had stock
of vitality which it seemed impos-
sible to destroy. They were unques-
tionably the most difficult to kill of
any men on earth. Yet for all this in
four months from the time of their
entry into prison over $1,000 of them
were dead. Two out of every three
did not last SO long as four months.
These are figures taken from the
Rebel records and which even Mr..
Davis cannot dispute. When these
facts are admitted the case is made
out. 1t is unnecessary to detail the
pangs, or the hardships which brought
about this terrible mortality. We
know that they must have been more
terrible than the imagination of man
can conceive of to produce such awful
results in so short a tine. WeknoW
that nothing but the most awful
sufferings could have rent the bodies
and souls in twain of those active,
vigorous, high-spirlted young men
we know that not one of them died
until he had waged a gallant, even
desperate resistance, with the grim
destroyer.
Against this knowledge all Davis's
sneers, all the strenuous denials OF
sllthe accomplices in that stupendous
tcfilne will avail nothing, and Ander-
sonville must go into history AS the
foulest blot upon the civilization OF

One of the most magnificent and
at the same time delicate manifesto
items of the anxiety of the American
people to do all that can aid in the
recovery of President Garfield, was
that made by the New York Cham
Der of Commerce at its meeting on
the 9TH inst. Such acts give wealth
lustre, which it cannot obtain when
employed merely as means oferect-
ing palatial mansions or of living in
aristocratic luxury.
Resolutions were unanimously
adopted, setting forth their unspeaka-
BILE grief and indignation at the at
tempted assassination of President
Garfield. and that they were deeply
moved by the Christian heroism with
which he had met this APPALLING ca

jeff Davis and Andersonville.

Mr.. Jefferson Davis, whose undis-
tul bed enjoyment of the blessings of
life and the adulation of his dupes
for the past 16 years, is a monument
to the generous mercy OF American
people, reiterates in his book his old
sheer at the genuineness of the suf.
ferings at Andersonville. 1t Is nat
ural that he should do so. He is
aware, though he does not admit it.
that he will pass into history as the
most ruthless destroyer of the human
race 0fthis century. Napoleon bears
no comparison to him in this respect.
because the Conqueror of Europe
never shed blood or evoked whole
sale human misery without political
reasons that seemed to him sufficient
to justify the means employed to
gain the end. But the verdict OF
history on Mr.. Davis will be that he
was capable of and did. cause the
slaughter of countless hecatombs of
men, and scattered ruin over smiI-
ing land, for no higher object than
the qualification of his own personal
feelings. He unblushingly confesses
so much in his abuse of his Generals
for not protracting the war long after
it was apparent to every one that
such struggle was utterly hopeless.

The condition of the President at

to warrant the greatest confidence in
his recovery. No unfaverable symp-
tons have manifested themselves, nor
is there any immediate ground for
anticipating any. He sleeps we'll,

result. and has faith in the ability of
his physicians to meet successfully
the points in the case.
