New ORLEANS Times (Dem.): The Gov
ernor of Texas knows very we'll that his
bosh about church and state has nothing to
do with his reasons for refusing to join in
the general rejoicing. He knows that the
appointment of day Of public thanksgiving
has no binding force on any one, but is SIM
ply recon- mendation and invitation to the
people of the State. This Governor knew
all this perfectly well; but he feared to COM
promise his popularity with the Texas stall
warts, or with some uncompromising Bour-
bons, or in some other way, if he should
commit himself to decent sympathy with
national rejoicing. He was simply playing
on some chords of political prejudice for his
own private ends

THE London Times speaking of
the Presidents case pays this trib-
ute to the American doctors: Not only
have American surgeons had compar-
atively recent experience of campaigning,
but they occupy position in the front
rank of their profession. They are habitu-
ally among the very first to apply all new
knowledge which comes to them from
abroad; they have largely contributed to the
advancement of knowledge themselves; and
they display, in even greater measure than
Englishmen, that solicitude for the welfare
of the individual patient which so conspicu-
ously differentiates practitioners of the
Anglo-Saxon race from those of the conti-
nent of Europe.

EXCELLENT words from the Express, the
Stalwart organ at Albany: ''We are all Re-
publicans, mourning the awful calamity
which has Frustrated President in the be-
ginning of his Administration, plunged his
family in grief, and brought upon him the
most intense pain, which he bears like a he
70. He who, in such time would seek to
put himself in train for office, on the ground
that he sympathized with the afflicted Presi-
dent more than his rival, is too cold and cal
culating for this world. We have not
changed in our political convictions because
of this atroclous crime; we know that we
have nothing either to seek or expect from
the political supporters of the Administra-
tion; but we know, also. that now is the time
above all others when all Republicans should
arouse themselves from depression because
of factional strife; should forget that there
has been such strife, and should resolve to
show their regard for their party, and their
sympathy for its chief, by grasping each
others hands around his bedside in perfect
reconciliation

The Presidents Condition.

The Presidents symptoms were much
improved yesterday, and strong hope is now
felt that he is once more on the high road to
convaleseence. DR.. Boynton pronounces
his condition better than it has been since
the inju ry and all the physicians are assum-
ing more hopeful tone. DR.. Hamilton
says the chan ces are now in favor of recov-
cry. The President seems to have regained
what he lost by the relapse of Saturday,
and little more. Of course there are vet
dangers to be encountered, but the situation
at present is fu II of announcement.

18th OF March the President appointed
VS.. Tipton, aud sent his name to the
Senate for confirmation. But on March
23ld the senate began to try to reorgan-
lie itself by electinG new officers. One
side wants an election while the other
does not, consequently they are divided
and have been fighting a political battle
ever since, and have made no conilrma-
tons. There are nov about two hun
drcd new appointments awaiting con-
ilrmation none of which can take
charge Of their respective Offices until
they are confirmed. During this time
the different applicants that were de-
f2atcd are in many cases keeping up
their fights, trying to Gust the new APP
pointccs. This is going on all over the
nation, but it is not probable that the
