Mrs. Lincoln and Mrs. Garfield.

The newspapers are vigorously
discussing the propriety Of Mrs.
Garfield accepting the money now
being subscribed for her benefit in
New York and elsewhere. As
usual, there is difference OF OPP
pinion on the subject, some con-
tending that it would not be in
good taste for her to do SO while
her husband holds the highest Of
fetal position in the land, and that
it might compromise him in some
way. The other and more sensi.
BILE view of the case is that the
fund is entirely for the benefit Of
Mrs. Garfield while she lives, and
for the use of her children after
her death, and that the President
at best has only an indirect interest
in the matter.
In this connection reference has
been made to the provision Con-
gress made for Mrs. Lincoln after
the death of her husband, and
some errors in regard to it have
crept into print, which Mr.. Cyrus
w. Field, corrects in one of the
New York papers. He says that
after the assassination of President
Lincoln, Congress discussed the
propriety of making some provis-
ion for his widow, and it was at
first proposed to pay her the full
amount OF his salary for the full
four years. term then Sl00,00O),
the same as if he had lived. This
was opposed on various grounds
and finally abandoned. The con-
clusion was that she was voted one
years salary and was allowed the
ranking privilege for life. Further
more, five years after Mr.. Lincoln's
death. Congress granted his widow
a pension OF $4,000 year. Mr..
Field speaks with some severity in
regard to the niggardly action Of
Congress in the matter, and thinks
the people should be encouraged
to manifest their love for the Pre-.
sident and his family in a manner
at once substantial and sincere

Occasionally a party would obtain permis

He says he must have strong
guard tomorrow to assist the Lord

the crowd became SO great that Guiteau
was notified by the warden there was
large number of persons in the rotunda de
string to see him, and he had better step
out into the corridor. Guiteau immediate
ly put on his coat ahd hat and brushed
himself off, and appeared in full view of
every one Retiring, he saluted the crowd
in military style, smiling indiferently. He
passed quiet night, talking but little. He
spends most of his time in reading and

perfectly composed yet he is greatly dis

of the warden when the examination was
made Itwas found that the ball had only
caused the slightest possible abrasion OF the
skin. Guiteau. was terribly frightened and
scanned each new arrival as if dreading g
another attempt upon his life. Reaching
the cell he begged the warden not to allow
any strangers to see him during the night.
Soon after this Mr.. Scoville called and had
a talk with him, and afterward his brother
called The description of the man who
did the shooting was meagre. The police
had very littls to work upon. An alarna
was sent out and mounted police instructed
to scour the country and bring in allssus-
PRECIOUS characters. The officer who pa
trolls near the Soldiers Home finally saw
man answering the description and called
to him to halt. The man sent yoiley OF
profanity in reply and rode OH
as fast as possible, ths poilce-
man hotly following The chase con

shots were fired. The man finally disap-
neared in the woods. The officer then laid
