The President receives many call

gers, who wish to pay their respects
before leaving the city.
A change of administration and
the incidents connected Herewith,
have about them an air of mystery,
Of peculiar interest, in which all
share alike. The outgoing of Secre-
tarics the sundering of official ties.

Departmental life here at this time
not altogether the securely happy
one most people think it. Now the
city is crowded with office .seakers.
and though President Garfield has
said that but few changes are to be
made in the Government service.
almost every Office of prominence
filled by officers of the late admins
tration, is wanted by some one having
claims upon the new, and President
Garfield will need to call into play
all firmness he possesses to prevent
wholesale clearing out. OF course
changes have got to be made many
commissions in tho diplomatic
service are about to expire and many
Bureau officers will resign as matter
of courtesy, so that the President,
by reason of the vacancies may be
able to satisfy many of the claimants

that are pressed, the President would

Secretary Blaine is the most poster

impression is abroad that he is the
Warwick of the new dispensation,
and hence the office seekers go to him
with their appeals.
Every one knows that President
Garfield belongs to a religious sect
called the "Campbellites," and that
he worships at a little chapel of the
sect situated in an out of the way
corner of the city. Heretofore the

A GREAT deal has been said of the
character of the bulletins that have
been sent out from the White House
in the last eight weeks. In explana-
ton OF these the Cincinnati CONNER
cial says:
The criticism is constantly made
upon DR.. Bliss that his bulletins have
been too hopeful-that he has ex
hausted the vocabulary of pleasant
and encouraging words in describing
the condition of the President.
It should be remembered that the
bulletins have often if not uniformly
been prepared rather for the Presi-
dent himself than for the public.
The doctors have had to deal with
a patient of extraordinary brain
power, of clear and penetrating in
telligence and of singularly sympa-
thetic and sensitive nature
! Very early in the case the Presi-
dent noticed the preparation of bulls
letins, protested against it as unnec-
essary, and then submitting, became
the closest reader through others of
the official publications about his
condition. There is no doubt this
somewhat accounts for the peculiar
strain of cheerfulness in the
| bulletin.

FINDING FAULT WITH THE DOC
TORS.

All Of us, some to greater and
some to less degree, have fallen in
to the habit of criticising and dis>
crediting the skill and knowledge of
the physicians. Notwithstanding the
fact that in the last hundred years
no science has made moro rapid pro
gress, or greater discoveries, and no
profession has accomplished such
grand results, still the doctors are
the subject of unfriendly and unjust
criticism. The medical profession
have labored earnestly, industriously
and intelligently, ever on the alert
for something to ameliorate the suf-
ferings of humanity, but the world
seems prone not to give them credit
for what they have done and are
still doing.
1t is natural perhaps for us when
our friends have fingered long on a
sick bed, and after we have been
siekened with deferred hope. alter
mating with bitter despair, and after
they have died, to reason ourselves
into the belief that all was not done
to save them that might have been
done, and this leads us to lay the
blame upon the physicians. This
want OF confidence proceeds, in some
degree doubtless, from the fact that,
like all other professions, there are
those in it who know nothing about
the profession and but little about
anything else. But reasonable peo-
pie ought not to condemn the studi.
GUS, industrious, skillful physical,
because there are ignorant quack
and mean charlatans. The way t,
treat the latter is to let them severed,
alone--let them starve for the wan
Of practice.
A great deal of the criticism O
the Presidents physicians has grow
out of the chronic disposition of tn
public mind to find fault with ply
sicians generally, and we are all NOR
or less afflicted with it. There is
great deal of truth in the following
taken from the New York Tribune
After all our criticism of medica
men, our confidence in them, t.
whatever cause it may be attributed
is remarkable. We find fault wit
them when we are well, but send fo
them all the same when we are i'll
To-day, when the great heart of tn
nation is feverish and heavy witt

Tonic, Alternative and Cathartic.

Simmons Liver Regulator, purely vegeta-
BILE, is not unpleasant to the taste. 1t is the
medicine generally used in the South to
arouse the torpid liver to healthy action. 1t
cures malaria, billiousness, dyspepsia,
headache, constipation and piles The ac-
ton of the Regulator is free from nausea or
gripping 1t is most effective in starting the
secretions of the liver, causing the bile to
act as a cathartic When there is an excess
of bile in the stomach, the Regulator is an
active purge; after the removal of the bile,
it will regulate the bowels and impart vigor
and health to the whole system.
