Secretary Blaine's Suffering.

WAsHIN GroN, July 5.-Secretary Blaine
has suffered the keenest of mental anguish
since the President Was shot down, and his
suffering has told upon him terribly. He
was witness of the assas>in's deed, and
the shock unnerved him then. Beside the
grief and anxiety wbi Is natural to every
person, and in addition to his respons bill
ty as q prominent official of the Admins
trstion, the Secretary's personal feelings
are deeply involved He has been a close
aud intimate friend of the President fol-
years. They have stood by each other in
the trying and stormy times of the past,
when both were in Congress together. This
bond of affection between them has
strengthened with each succe ding year.
The surgeons who are attending stric ly to
the case spend most of the lime at the
White House, and at least two are there
all the time. They do not remain constant
ly at the Presidents side, but stay in the
library. two rooms distant They say they
Can better judge of the case and its changes
by thus remaining a*sy ffom the Presi-
dent and By comparing the condition at
one visit with that of the visit before. A
competent nurse remains in the room all
the time. The Cabinet ministers spend mt o.
of the time at the White House.

No Letter for Burch.

A man from Branch county, being in

A man from Missouri was just ahead of

and then the postmaster got his favoFite

HIS face was the picture of unutterable woe,
and he appeared to be distracted in its con
temptation. Senator Jones and General
Arthur sat silently in the library, awaiting the
arrival of the messages that came by
hurried messengers almost every five min
utes. When the servant opened the door
the stately secretary walked in, and General
Arthur rose hurried,y to meet him with ex-
tended hands. For an instant neither
spoke, and tears suffused the eyes of both.
There was cordial grasp of the hands, and
then Mr.. Blaine in husky tones said gently
6 fear we can reasonably hope no longer
/ am afraid our President is at the point of
death" General Arthur let go the secre-
tary's hand and dropped back i'll a chair.
Till then he had hoped against hope. Suf-
fering from nervous exhaustion and hours
of poignant grief, his strength almost
failed him at the announcement of what he
had longed not to hear, and had prayed
might not happen. In few seconds he
mastered his feelings enough TO ask in
broken tones for the particulars. The sec-
retary gave his reasons for his~ fears and in
tones of horror declared that he saw no
reasonable grounds on which to base an
expectation for which he had longed ENC
looked since the pistol of the assassin
had done its work. General Arthur would
talk of nothing else but the fate of the
President and when it was mentioned that
he might desire to summon Congress, he
could not listen to anything but said in a
choking voice, s'There was time enough
for consultation about that if the worst must
happen" He still could not bring himself
to realize that he must be thrust by violence
into the Executive chair of the nation. He
said he should rely upon the advice of the
Cabinet whom he trusted to tlo what was
best when the necessity was upon thom.
Mr.. Blaine rose to go, and Mr.. Arthur again
pressed his hand and thanked him for the
kindness he had shown him i'll this aftiic-
ton, and the mindful consideration that he
had manifested at all times. Thus these
two men parted, with the trusting fondness
| of brothers, the Vice-President leaning upon
the master will Of the Secretary for guidance
in the crisis of his life.

CRAZY MCNAMARA,
Blaine Virginia Repudiates
Him,

RICHMOND, Va, July 6.-From the
most authentic sources it is known
that Daniel Mcnamara, claiming to
be from King William County, and
arrested in Washington yesterday
for announcing his intention to kill
Secretary Blaine, is not a citizen of
that county or the State, or even of
the South He had been
in King William County, coming
thither from the North, but being
found to be insane, was confined in
jail and held until recently, when,
appearing to be harmless and APP
parently sane, he was set at liberty
on condition that he would leave for
his home in the North, and he was
doubtless en- route thither when his
insanity developed afresh in Wash
ngton.

a Memory of the Past.

A ''lower East Tennessee voyager writes
as follows to the Morristown Gazette:

WASHINGTON, July A letter was
received at the city post>office to-day,
from Boston, addressed to Charles
J. Guiteau. It was not delivered,
and it's contents are not divulged.
But it set the postmaster thinking,
and he devoted most of his holiday
to examining the files and records OF
the Office for accounts of other letters
received by Guiteau. The clerks
were all away, and his search was a
difficult one. But he ascerta;ned
that Guileau had received within a
recent period several money-orders,
all from New York, and for small
amounts. This was the revolver and
hack money. Tomorrow diligent
search will be made throughout the
records, and the names of senders of
money orders will be looked up.

dence, judging him finally according
