WHEREAS, 1t is fitting that the deep
grief which has fallen upon all hearts
should manifest itself with one accord
lowmd the throne of infinite grace and
we should bow before the Almighty
and seek from Him that consolation in
our afiliction and that satisfaction of
our loss, which he is willing and able
to vouchsafe. Now, therefore, in obe.
dience to the sacred duty and in accord.
ance with the desire of the people, /
Chester A. Arthur, President of the
United States of America, do hereby
appoint Monday next, the twenty.

DUST TO DUST.

The remains Of President Garfield,
the twentieth President of the United
States, were placed in vault at Lake
View Cemetery, near Cleveland, Ohio,
on Monday afternoon. At $3.50 the
procession entered the cemetery, and
halted at the vault where it had been
decided to place the remains for few
days. Bands played "Nearer my God
to Thee" as the coffin was lifted from
the car and carried to the vault. None
of the family except the two boys left
the carriage. Chaplain Jones, of Gar
fields old regiment, delivered an elo'
quent address. After the singing oi
several hymns the benediction was
pronounced, and mourners and escort
left the cemetery, The members o.
the Cabinet except Blaine, returned tC
Washington that evening.

GUITEAUs BULLET.-The New York
Sun gives this statement "The labors
of DR.. Lamb at the autopsy were very
long and trying, and the attention Of
the seven physicians who overlooked
his work was held upon a tense strain
for nearly an hour. One who was
present says that the internal organs,
having been lifted out, were deposited,
as is usual in autopsies, in basin.
Then DR.. Lamb began search for the
bullet near the psoas muscle, where all
expected to find it encysted. He
searched carefully, but it was not there,
Then the search was extended to other
parts Of the abdominal cavity, and fin.
ally to points very remote from the
place where it was supposed to lie,
They examined very carefully the in.
side of the trunk, from which the vital
organs had also been removed but still
the bullet could not be found. Finally,
in despair, search was made beneath
the viscera in the basin, and there the
bullet was discovered in its cyst. The
tissue in which the cyst was formed
had been cut away from the ribs by
the surgeons knife.

THE NEW PRESIDENT.

The Harrisburg Patriot in alluding
to the bead OF the incoming admins.
tratlon says: President Arthur is a
politician who has studied human ma.
ture in the management Of campaigns

that be will apply the knowledge thus
acquired in his treatment of public
affairs. He began the other day by
delivering an inaugural address in

which q large element in his own par.
ty regarded his advent to the Presi.
dency. He felt himself under the ne.
eessity of promising the public that he
would not depart from the general
course Of policy marked out by bis
lamented predecessor. He FASTENED
to give the promise, but he gave il in
very guarded, If not definite terms.
lie gave it because he believed II nee.
essary so to do in order to quiet the
apprehensions and suspicious engen
dered by his personal and political re.
iations with Conkling, Grant and
other prominent stalwarts. He will,
therefore, not make any immediate
changes in the Cabinet, nor take any
political steps OF any consequence
until after the November elections
But long before the next session of
Congress shall have come to an end
1t Is more than probable that the New
York politician will have thrown off
the cloak that fell upon him from the
shoulders of the nations martyr

A DAY or MOURNING

In accordance with the proclamation
OF President Arthur, indorsed by simi
lar action on the part Of several of the
State Governors, Monday was gener.
eraly observed us u season of humilia.
ton, fasting and prayer, Public opln.
ion recognizes the propriety of this call,
and II was met in an earnestly respon-
sivc spirit in every section of the coun'
try. At the first shock of the great
aflliction the souls of men stood dumb
and not few were disposed to murmer
because the long and fervent petition
OF the nation for the recovery OF the
President had not been granted. These
doubts are now beginning to give way
to the wiser second thought Of that
serene and submissive faith which sees
in every event Of life the hand Of
One who doeth all things well. The
President over whose open grave we
mourn stood as a representative of the
great Republic, to the insignia OF whose
sovereignty he had just succeeded.
The disaster which eliminated on Sep
tember 10Th was not simply personal
to him and family and friends it was
a Providential visitation upon the
whole body OF the people. 1t was to
meet that the day OF his obsequies
should be dedicated TO an acknowledg.
ment of sins, national and individual,
to humble aud penitent submission,
and to an earnest invocation that the
Divine grace and favor may rest upon
the United States and all its citizens

says "Tho death Of Senator Burnside

on the opening of the Senate, before
the new Senator from Rhode Island
and the two New York Senators are
sworn in. Should all the Democratic
Senators be present, and Mr.. Arthur
then President of the United States,
there would be nothing to prevent the
Democrats eiectng a President pro
tempore Of their own faith before al.
lowing the new Republican Senators
10 be admitted. Once installed, a Dem.
oeratic President pro temporo could
not be unseated, as IN a fall Senate the
Republican and Democratic vote would
be a tie. Senator Davis, of Illinois,
who might vote for Republican for
President pro tempore, would hardly
vote TO unseat a Democrat once chosen" T"

This ballot showed that Mr.. Straw
was one OF the nominees and that Mr.
Picard was next in the race because of
the popular vote he had received. Two
or three moro ballots were taken with
similar result. Then a motion pre-.
vailed to reconsider the ballots taken
and vote for but one candidate. Mr.
Straw, of course being nominated every
time, The balloting for the second
Commissioner continued for some time.
Finally all were dropped except Picard
and Bloom, and when tho ballot was
announced it was discovered that they
were tied, 80 each, a number Of the
delegates not voting for either.) At
this point one of our excellent party
rules was utilized, which states that
when tie vote occurs the candidate
having the lowest popular vote shall
be dropped The clerks in turning TO
their tabular statement (found else.
whore in this isspe) announced that
Mr.. Picard had received l,04S votes
and Mr.. Bloom 9i7 votes. The name
of the latter was then dropped and Mr.
Picard was nominated by reclamation.
At this point the Convention adjourned
until s o'clock.
Upon reassembliDgit was announced
that Chairman Burchficld would not
be present because of the illness of his
wife, (who died that night.) Secretary
Wallace called the Convention to order
and the body proceeded to nominate

SURFAC CE INDICATIONS.


We will relate an incident that occur
red at Long Branch last June, when our
Editorial Association was in session at
that celebrated seashore resort. When
the large ballroom was thrown open to
the dancers and spectators, with others
we took a seat in "side pocket to
watch the fun. The ball opened with
twenty-five "gay and festives" on their
heels and toes. Finally, an old grand
father printer from the southwestern
part of the State "hunched us in the
ribs, inquiring "Who is that man with
a white vest, white coat and white
pants, who has been dancing for over
three hours" We jocosely replied that
it was Governor Cooper, of Delaware.
"Oh," said he, 81 never was down
there in that panhandle" A little ex'
planation located him in Delaware
county, Pennsylvania, and a Senator
from that section of the State who
wants 10 be Governor. "That little
rcd-headed fellow dressed in white
muslin after the Governorship; no in.

cal State Committee, and his first cir.
cular reads as follows:

A THIRD TERMER.-An exchange
says; "The Republican candidate fol-
State Treasurer, General Bailey, was
q third tormer and voted for General
Grant on every ballot in the Chicago
Convention, and against General Gar,
field. His election as State Treasurer
would be an endorsement of third
term pretensions and repudiations Of
President Garfield, as well as a posi-
tive condemnation of those who pre-.
vented General Grants denomination. |"
Clearfield Republican. [volume] (Clearfield, Pa.) 1851-1937, 1881-09-28

A True TEsT.--The "kickers
against our present system of nominal
ing can learn good lesson by con
sulting the popular vote table in this
issue. The real test was on Treasurer
because all the other offices to be filled
had double candidates. The aggre
gate vote cast for the Office indicated
was nearly 5000, and If the Craw,
ford system had been in vogue, the
returns show that all the candidates
nominated OIL Tuesday last would
have been nominated anyhow under
that system, Democrats, remember
that changes are not always Improve
ments.

A Two.SIDED CAsE.-There is q
town called Texarkana, lying partly
within Arkansas and partly within
Texas, with a broad street marking
the boundary. 1t has two Mayors,
and the State laws governing on one
side have no binding force on the
other. Arkansas made severe en-
actmcnt against the free sale OF fire.
arms, whereupon the hardware mer-
chants moved their stores 10 the other
side Of the street, thus going into
Texas, where the sale of revolvers,
like their use, is free. The Arkansas
Mayor issued a proclamation against
the sale Of liquor on Sunday, greatly
to the advantage of the saloon men in
Texas, until the vendors on the other
eide moved over and regaincd their
customers.

Twice SwoRN.-Yice President Ar.
thur, who was at his home in New
York at the time Of President Gar.
fields death, was notified of the sad
occurrence by Attorney General Mac.
Veagh, in the absence of Secretary Of
State Blaine. General Arthur took
the Presidential oath before Judge
Brady, in New York, early on Tues.
day morning, the Goth inst, and so no
tilted the Cabinet, all OF whom except
Blaine and Lincoln were at Long
Branch when the President died. He
Is now as fully President of the United
States, by the result Of Guiteau's bul.
let as though he had been elected to
that exalted position by the voters of
the country, He was afterwards sworn
again at Washington by the Chief Jus.
,ice. We hope he will stick TO his
oa,hs on this occasion; because, IL Mr..
Hayes and Secretary Sherman told
the truth FIVE years ago, he practiced
the reverse. The reporters sent out
the word that he answered with EN-.
phasis, 80 help me God We pre-.
sumo Hayes and Sherman will give
him'a card 10 that effect.
